| 3.__Limits on employment or association.__It is unlawful for a |
broker-dealer, or for an issuer engaged in offering, offering to |
purchase, purchasing or selling securities in this State, |
directly or indirectly, to employ or associate with an individual |
to engage in an activity related to securities transactions in |
this State if the license of the individual is suspended or |
revoked or the individual is barred from employment or |
association with a broker-dealer, an issuer, an investment |
adviser or a federal covered investment adviser by an order of |
the administrator under this chapter, the Securities and Exchange |
Commission or a self-regulatory organization. A broker-dealer or |
issuer does not violate this subsection if the broker-dealer or |
issuer sustains the burden of proof that the broker-dealer or |
issuer did not know and in the exercise of reasonable care could |
not have known of the suspension, revocation or bar. Upon request |
from a broker-dealer or issuer and for good cause, an order under |
this chapter may modify or waive, in whole or in part, the |
application of the prohibitions of this subsection to the broker- |
dealer. |
