(3) Any fact or condition exists that, if it had existed at the time of the original application for the license, would have warranted the director, or the director's designee, in refusing originally to issue the license;

(4) The licensee has committed any fraud, engaged in any dishonest activities, or made any misrepresentation;

(5) The licensee has violated any provisions of this title or any regulation issued pursuant to this title;
