The commissioner shall keep a record of all process so served.
(3) Service of process upon any such licensee in any action or proceeding instituted by the commissioner under this section shall be made by the commissioner by mailing such process by registered mail to an individual licensee at the licensee's last known address of record or to an insurance agency licensee at its principal place of business.
