Notwithstanding other provisions of this chapter to the contrary, a person who neither has an office physically located in this state nor engages in face-to-face solicitation in this state, if authorized by another state to make loans in that state at a rate of finance charge in excess of the rate provided in chapter 535, shall not be subject to the following provisions of this chapter:

1.  Section 536.2 to the extent it requires payment of an annual license fee in excess of two hundred fifty dollars and requires a person to prove the person has any dollar amount of liquid assets or the use of any dollar amount in the conduct of the person's business at the licensed place of business.

2.  Section 536.4, however, the superintendent may deny a license if upon investigation the superintendent determines that the financial responsibility, experience, character or general fitness of the person, or members, officers, or directors thereof, do not warrant the belief that the business will be operated lawfully, honestly, fairly and efficiently, within the purposes of this chapter.

3.  Section 536.6 to the extent it requires a person to have any dollar amount of assets available for a licensed place of business.

4.  Section 536.10 to the extent it requires the superintendent to make an examination of the affairs, place of business and records of the person on a periodic basis.
