HOWEVER, THE STATE INSURANCE FUND SHALL HAVE DISCRETION TO ISSUE A NEW POLICY TO SUCH EMPLOYER BY CONSENTING TO A PAYMENT PLAN FOR THE EMPLOYER TO PAY OFF THE BALANCE ON THE PRIOR POLICY PROVIDED THAT (1) ANY REQUIRED PAYROLL AUDIT OR SELF-AUDIT HAS BEEN COMPLETED AT THE TIME THE NEW POLICY IS ISSUED, (2) THE EMPLOYER'S PRIOR PAYMENT AND POLICY HISTORY MEET THE STATE INSURANCE FUND'S UNDERWRITING STANDARDS, (3) THE EMPLOYER HAS DEMONSTRATED THE ABILITY TO PAY THE DEPOSIT PREMIUM ON THE NEW POLICY AND THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF THE BALANCE DUE ON THE PRIOR CANCELLED POLICY PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF THE NEW POLICY, AND (4) THE EMPLOYER HAS DEMONSTRATED THE ABILITY TO PAY THE OVERDUE BALANCE FROM THE PRIOR CANCELLED POLICY BY INSTALLMENTS AS DETERMINED BY THE STATE INSURANCE FUND TOGETHER WITH PAYMENTS ON THE NEW POLICY WITHIN TWELVE MONTHS FROM THE DATE THE NEW POLICY IS ISSUED. IF AN EMPLOYER IS ISSUED A NEW POLICY PURSUANT TO THIS SUBDIVISION, SUCH EMPLOYER SHALL BE REQUIRED TO MAKE THE FINAL PAYMENT ON SUCH OVERDUE BALANCE WITHIN TWELVE MONTHS FROM THE DATE THE NEW POLICY IS ISSUED. IF THE EMPLOYER DEFAULTS ON PAYMENT FOR EITHER THE NEW POLICY OR THE BALANCE DUE FROM THE PRIOR CANCELLED POLICY, THE EMPLOYER'S NEW POLICY IS SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
