Sec. 223. Any insurer making application for an original certificate of authority to transact insurance, or applying for a reissuance of a certificate of authority after the certificate has been terminated for any reason, shall pay to the commissioner the fee of $500.00 for examination, investigation, and processing of the application. If the application is withdrawn for any reason, the examination fee shall not be refunded.
