A purchasing group which obtains liability insurance from an insurer not admitted in this state or a risk retention group shall inform each of the members of the group which have a risk resident or located in this state that the risk is not protected by an insurance insolvency guaranty fund in this state, and that the risk retention group or insurer may not be subject to all insurance laws and rules of this state. 3. A purchasing group may not purchase insurance providing for a deductible or self-insured retention applicable to the group as a whole unless the purchasing group uses a policyholder's disclosure statement approved by the commissioner which clearly explains in simplified language the policy is subject to a group deductible or self-insured retention and provides a detailed explanation of the process of the satisfaction of the deductible or self-insured retention among members. 4.
