A. (1) A Louisiana corporation or limited liability company that is licensed under another law of this state or under any law of the United States may apply for and be issued a license under this Chapter unless the transaction of business by the corporation or company as a licensee under another law of this state or a law of the United States violates this Chapter or is contrary to the purposes of this Chapter.

(2) A Louisiana corporation or Louisiana limited liability company that is licensed under this Chapter may apply for and be issued a license under another law of this state or of another state or a law of the United States unless the transaction of business by that corporation or company as a licensee under another law of this state or another state or a law of the United States would violate this Chapter or would be contrary to the purposes of this Chapter.

B. (1) Upon approval of a two-thirds vote of its board of directors, managers, or members and after complying with Paragraph (2) of this Subsection, a licensee may apply to the commissioner to have the commissioner accept the surrender of the licensee's license. If the commissioner determines that the requirements of this Section have been satisfied, the commissioner shall approve the application.

(2) Not less than sixty days before filing an application with the commissioner under Paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a licensee shall notify all of its shareholders or members and all of its creditors of its intention to file the application. Each creditor shall be notified of the right to comment to the commissioner. Each shareholder or member shall be notified of the right to file with the licensee an objection to the proposed surrender of the license within the sixty-day period and shall be advised that, if the shareholder files an objection, the shareholder or member should send a copy of the objection to the commissioner. If shareholders or members representing twenty percent of the outstanding voting securities of the licensee file an objection, the licensee shall not proceed with the application under Paragraph (1) of this Subsection unless the application is approved by a vote of shareholders or members representing two-thirds of the outstanding voting securities of the licensee.
