Any confirmation of insurance shall be executed by the surplus lines broker and shall show:

(b) No surplus lines broker shall issue or deliver any evidence of insurance or purport to insure, or represent that insurance has or will be written by any unauthorized insurer, unless the broker has authority from the insurer to cause the risk to be insured, or has received information from the insurer in the regular course of business that such insurance has been granted.

(c) If after delivery of the evidence of insurance there is any change in the identity of the insurers, or the proportion of the risk assumed by any insurer, or any other material change in coverage as stated in the original evidence of insurance, the surplus lines broker shall as soon as reasonably possible issue and deliver to the insured a substitute for, or endorsement of the original document, accurately showing the current status of the coverage and the insurer's responsibility thereunder.
