Sec. 4055.010. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN PREMIUMS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this title or any rule adopted by the commissioner, a specialty license holder is not required to treat as money received in a fiduciary capacity premiums collected from a consumer who purchases insurance coverage when completing a consumer transaction associated with the coverage if:

(1) the insurer represented by the license holder has consented in writing, signed by an officer of the insurer, that premiums are not required to be segregated from money received by the license holder because of the consumer transaction associated with the insurance coverage; and

(2) the charges for insurance coverage are itemized but not billed to the consumer separately from the charges for the associated consumer transaction.
