(a) That the persons who will serve as directors
or officers of the corporation, or the managers or members acting in a
managerial capacity of the limited-liability company, as applicable:
(1) Have a good reputation for honesty,
trustworthiness and integrity and display competence to transact the business
of a trust company in a manner which safeguards the interests of the general
public. The applicant must submit satisfactory proof of these qualifications to
the Commissioner.

material fact on the application.
(4) Have not been an officer or member of
the board of directors for an entity which had a license issued pursuant to the
provisions of this chapter that was suspended or revoked within the 10 years
immediately preceding the date of the application, and in the reasonable
judgment of the Commissioner, there is evidence that the officer or member of
the board of directors materially contributed to the actions resulting in the
license suspension or revocation.
(5) Have not been an officer or member of
the board of directors for a company which had a license as a trust company
which was issued in any other state, district or territory of the United States
or any foreign country suspended or revoked within the 10 years immediately
preceding the date of the application, and in the reasonable judgment of the
Commissioner, there is evidence that the officer or member of the board of
directors materially contributed to the actions resulting in the license
suspension or revocation.
(6) Have not violated any of the
provisions of this chapter or any regulation adopted pursuant to the provisions
of this chapter.
(b) That the financial status of the directors
and officers of the corporation or the managers or members acting in a
managerial capacity of the limited-liability company is consistent with their
responsibilities and duties.

complies with the provisions of NRS 657.200 .
(d) That the initial stockholders equity is not
less than the required minimum.
(e) That the applicant has retained the employee
required by paragraph (b) of subsection 2 of NRS
669.083 .
2. After an investigation by the
Commissioner pursuant to subsection 1, if the Commissioner finds any defect or
deficiency in an application for licensure which would constitute grounds for
denial of the application, written notice of such grounds for denial must be
served personally or sent by certified mail to the applicant. The Commissioner
shall allow the applicant an opportunity to cure any defect or deficiency in
the application and, not later than 30 days after receipt of the notice of
denial, to resubmit the application for approval.
3. If a defect or deficiency in an
application is not cured pursuant to subsection 2, written notice of the entry
of an order refusing a license to a trust company must be served personally or
sent by certified mail to the company affected. The company, upon application,
is entitled to a hearing before the Commissioner, but if no such application is
made within 30 days after the entry of an order refusing a license to any
company, the Commissioner shall enter a final order.
4. The order of the Commissioner is final
for the purposes of judicial review.
