§2515-A. Right to examine and return policy
1. Every individual life insurance policy delivered or issued for delivery in this State after December 31, 1976, shall contain a provision therein, or in a separate rider attached thereto when delivered, stating in substance that the person to whom the policy is issued shall be permitted to return the policy within 10 days of its delivery to such person and to have a refund of the premium paid, if after examination of the policy the purchaser is not satisfied with it for any reason. The provision shall be set forth in the policy under an appropriate caption and, if not so printed on the face page of the policy, adequate notice of the provision shall be printed or stamped conspicuously on the face page.
[PL 1975, c. 168 (NEW).]
