(1) The receipt shall be sent with the policy at time of delivery only; and

(2) the receipt or acceptance forms shall not be made available as supplies to field representatives or agents, but shall be furnished from the home office in transmittal of the policy to the writing agent.

(f) Promissory notes shall not be sold or transferred by the payee (agent). Commissions on the sale shall not be paid to the agent until the policy receipt or acceptance form has been received in the home or executive office of the company.

The policy and note shall be canceled, the applicant shall be released from liability, and when applicable, the down payment shall be refunded.
