The surety on the bond may cancel same by giving sixty (60) days' notice in writing to the commissioner and thereafter shall be relieved of liability after the effective date of cancellation. The commissioner shall require a new bond in an amount of Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) at any time he has knowledge that a licensee's bond has expired, is about to expire or, in the opinion of the commissioner, is insecure for any reason. The license of any consumer loan broker who fails to post a replacement bond within ten (10) days from receipt of a notice from the commissioner shall be cancelled immediately.
Claimants against the licensee may bring suit directly on the bond, and the Attorney General also may bring suit on behalf of claimants in one (1) or multiple actions.
