§ 7-11-208. Licensing. (a) Unless a proceeding under § 7-11-212 is instituted or the applicant is notified that the application is incomplete, the license of a broker-dealer, sales representative, investment adviser, or investment adviser representative becomes effective thirty (30) days after the later of the date an application for licensing is filed and is completed or the date an amendment to an application is filed and is complete. In either case the license becomes effective only if all examination requirements imposed under § 7-11-207 are satisfied. An application is complete when the applicant has furnished information responsive to each applicable item of the application. The director may by order authorize an earlier effective date of licensing.

(d) No person may act at any one time as a sales representative for more than one broker-dealer or for more than one issuer, unless the broker-dealers or issuers for whom the sales representative acts are affiliated by direct or indirect common control or the director authorizes multiple licenses by rule or order.

(e) If a person licensed as a sales representative terminates association with a broker-dealer or issuer, or terminates activities that make the person a sales representative, the sales representative and the broker-dealer or issuer on whose behalf the sales representative was acting shall promptly notify the director.
