Sec. 9.(1) The commissioner, upon 10 days' written notice to the licensee stating the contemplated action and the grounds for the action, and upon reasonable opportunity to be heard, may revoke any license if he or she finds any of the following:
(a) The licensee has failed, after 5 days' written notice of default, to pay the annual operating fee, to maintain the bond required under this act, or to comply with any demand, ruling, or requirement of the commissioner made under this act.
(b) The licensee either knowingly or without the exercise of due care has violated any provision of this act or any rule made by the commissioner under this act.
(c) Any fact or condition that exists which, if it had existed at the time of the original application for the license, would have warranted the commissioner in refusing originally to issue the license.
(2) If the commissioner finds that probable cause for revocation of any license exists and that the enforcement of the act requires immediate suspension of the license pending investigation, he or she may, upon 3 days' written notice and a hearing, suspend any license for a period not exceeding 30 days.
(3) A licensee may surrender its license by delivering to the commissioner written notice that it surrenders the license. The surrender does not affect the licensee's civil or criminal liability for acts committed before the surrender.
(4) A revocation or suspension or surrender of a license does not impair or affect the obligation of any preexisting lawful contract between the licensee and any borrower.
(5) The commissioner shall have authority to reinstate suspended licenses or to issue new licenses to a licensee whose license shall have been revoked if no fact or condition exists that clearly would have warranted the commissioner in refusing originally to issue the license.
(6) If the commissioner revokes or suspends a license, he or she shall file with the office of financial and insurance services a written transcript of the order containing the evidence and the reasons supporting the revocation or suspension, and serve upon the licensee a copy of the transcript.
