      (E) Such other pertinent information as the director may reasonably require.

      (b) A statement on a standardized form furnished by the director, as to the diligent efforts by the producing insurance producer to place the coverage with admitted insurers and the results thereof. The statement shall be signed by the producing insurance producer and shall affirm that the insured was expressly advised prior to placement of the insurance that:

      (3) The director may direct that filings required under subsection (1) of this section be made to the Surplus Line Association of Oregon. The director may also require that such filings be made electronically but may exempt a licensee from the requirement for good cause shown.
