If the insurer elects to return the premium through the insurance producer, the insurance producer shall transmit the unearned premium to the premium finance company within the 30-day period. The insurer, on written notice of any failure of the insurance producer to transmit the premium and not later than the 30th day after the notice, shall pay the amount of return premium directly to the premium finance company.
(2) In calculating the gross unearned premium due under a financed insurance policy, the insurer shall use the prorate method of calculation.
