$Health Insurance Innovations, Inc.(HIIQ)$ Since its inception, the Company has operated in the State of Florida under an Agency License issued by the Florida Department of Financial Services that allows the Company to sell insurance products in the state. Many states, including Florida, have statutes that require the licensure of TPAs, and the statutes and applicable regulations vary from state-to-state with respect to the nature of the business activities that may require licensure. Because the Company’s business model does not fall into the category of business activities ordinarily contemplated by state TPA statutes, the need for the Company to become licensed as a TPA in a particular state is not always clear and generally involves an analysis and dialogue with applicable state regulators. As of today, the Company applied for and obtained TPA licenses in approximately 34 states, and applications in 8 states are pending, and in other states the Company confirmed that licensure is not required. The Company has operated in the State of Florida since its inception, and based on discussions with the OIR, the Company determined that its business activities likely require licensure as a TPA even though the Company is not a traditional TPA. Although the Company has pursued the licensure process described above, the Company believes that further contemplated dialogue with OIR could result in a conclusion that TPA licensure is not necessary, and otherwise the Company intends to seek such licensure and has since provided all information requested by the OIR. The OIR has not to date informed the Company that it intends to request that the Company modify its business activities in Florida, and the Company is in regular communication with the OIR on other compliance matters.
