(1) Evidence of incendiarism (meaning arson by or at the direction of the insured); or

(2) For nonpayment of premium; or

(3) Fraud or material misrepresentation; or

Any such notice shall be sent not less than thirty days prior to the cancellation or nonrenewal of any risk under the program to allow ample time for an application for new coverage to be made and a new policy to be written under the program.

3. Any cancellation or nonrenewal notice to the insured relating to a policy or binder issued under the program shall contain the procedures for obtaining an inspection under the program and shall be accompanied by a statement that the insured has a right of appeal as hereinafter provided.
