In determining whether to approve any application filed under this division or under any regulation or order issued under this division, the commissioner may consider proposals made by the applicant, including, but not limited to, proposals to appoint officers, sell securities, obtain financing, or purchase securities of small business firms, and, if in the opinion of the commissioner it is probable that the applicant will be able to implement the proposal, the commissioner may make findings on the basis of the proposal. However, whenever the commissioner approves an application on the basis, in whole or in part, of a proposal made by the applicant, the commissioner shall impose upon the approval appropriate conditions requiring that the applicant implement the proposal within a period of time specified by the commissioner.
