A. The department shall issue a license for a private investigations manager to an individual who files a completed application accompanied by the required fees and who submits satisfactory evidence that the applicant:
(1) possesses a current license in good standing as a private investigator;
(2) has successfully passed an examination required by department rules;
(3) is employed by the private investigation company that the applicant is being licensed to manage; and

A private investigations manager who ceases to be employed by the private investigation company that the manager is licensed to manage, before leaving the company, shall surrender the private investigations manager's license to the owner, officer or director who is required to temporarily take over the management of the private investigation company. The owner, officer or director who temporarily takes over managing the private investigation company within thirty days of the termination from employment of the private investigations manager shall:
(1) notify the department of the termination of the employment of the private investigations manager;
(2) submit the surrendered license; and
(3) submit an application to the department naming a new private investigations manager, who shall not begin to perform the duties of a private investigations manager until and unless the department grants the applicant a private investigations manager's license.
C. Failure to notify the department within thirty days of the private investigations manager's termination from employment subjects the license of the private investigation company to suspension or revocation by the department.
D. Reinstatement of the private investigation company's license may occur only upon the filing of an application for reinstatement and payment of the reinstatement fee.
