The termination for cause alleged that Ms. Archuleta used her own bank account to pay premiums for several individuals, that she allowed policies to lapse and then reapplied for them in order to receive additional commissions, and that she completed applications for proposed insureds using her own email address. The New Mexico revocation order (“NM Order”) is attached as Exhibit 1.
5. On or about January 21, 2026, the Idaho Department of Insurance revoked
