Pursuant to Chapter 626, Florida Statutes (2003), you, HANI RIHAN, are currently licensed in this state as a Life & Health Agent (2-18). 2. At all times pertinent to the dates and occurrences referred to herein, you, HANI RIHAN, were licensed in this state as a Life & Health Agent (2-18). 3. Pursuant to Chapter 626, Florida Statutes (2003), the Florida Department of Financial Services (hereinafter “Department”) has jurisdiction over your insurance licenses and appointments. 4, At all times relevant to the dates and occurrences referred to herein, you, HANI RIHAN, represented the Alliance for Affordable Services as a Life and Health (2-18) Agent (hereinafter, "Alliance"), and were a manager of Cornerstone Marketing. Cornerstone Marketing sold the products of Alliance. You sold insurance products through Alliance that were underwritten by the Mid-West National Life Insurance Company of Tennessce (hereinafter, "Mid-West"). Your insurance appointment with Mid-West was terminated by Mid-West on December 3, 2002. COUNT I 5. The above general allegations are hereby realleged and fully incorporated herein by reference. 6. On or about October 3, 2001, you, HANI RIHAN, went to the home of D.B., of Venice, Florida, in order to sell her a Mid-West health insurance policy. D.B.'s husband was also present at this time. You, HANI RIHAN, completed the insurance application relevant to questions you asked of D.B. While filling out the application for insurance, both D.B. and her husband informed you, HANI RIHAN, that D.B. had suffered a heart attack some two (2) years prior and as a result was hospitalized for three (3) days. You, HANI RIHAN, completed and signed the application, had D.B. sign it, and collected from D.B. and her husband, check #9199, payable to Mid-West, in the amount of FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY-EIGHT AND 07/100 ($438.07) DOLLARS, as a down payment for this health insurance. 7. Where the insurance application asked whether D.B. had, “any other medical or surgical advice, hospitalizations, treatment, operations, or testing in the last five (5) years," you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." 8. As a result of some responses to some of the questions on D.B.'s insurance application, D.B. was required to complete, supplement to the insurance application, an additional questionnaire regarding "High Blood Pressure." This questionnaire was also completed by you, HANI RIHAN, relevant to the questions asked of D.B. Where the questionnaire asked whether D.B. had ever had any history of heart or circulatory problems you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." Where the questionnaire asked whether D.B. had ever been hospitalized for high blood pressure or circulatory problems, you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." 9. On or about November 21, 2001, Mid-West notified D.B. that her policy was effective, but with an exclusionary endorsement for "hypertension, hypertensive heart disease any treatment in connection with or any complications therefrom." D.B. subsequently cancelled her extant health insurance policy since the Mid-West policy was now effective. D.B. made payments on her Mid-West policy for approximately three (3) months. 10. Upon reviewing D.B.'s actual medical records, Mid-West discovered the evidence of D.B.'s 1999 hospitalization as a result of hypertension and her diagnosed coronary artery disease. Because of the omission of this information from D.B.'s application for insurance, Mid- West cancelled her health insurance policy on or about January 22, 2002. A premium refund was issued to D.B. by Mid-West. 11. D.B. is now unable to secure health insurance. IT IS THEREFORE CHARGED that you, HANI RIHAN, have violated or are accountable under the following provisions of the Florida Insurance Code and Rules of the Department of Financial Services which constitute grounds for the suspension or revocation of your license and appointments: (a) Willful misrepresentation of any insurance policy or annuity contract or willful deception with regard to any such policy or contract, done cither in person or by any form of dissemination of information or advertising.

Section 626.9541(1)(k), Florida Statutes (2001). COUNT II 12. The above general allegations are hereby realleged and fully incorporated herein by reference. 13. On or about February 25, 2002, you, HANI RIHAN, went to the office of M.K., of New Port Richey, Florida, in order to sell her a Mid-West health insurance policy for her and her husband. You, HANI RIHAN, led MLK. to believe that pre-existing conditions would be covered by this new policy, provided that she already had extant health insurance coverage. You, HANI RIHAN, completed the insurance application relevant to questions you asked of M.K. While filling out the application for insurance, M.K. informed you, HANI RIHAN, that M.K.'s husband had high blood pressure and had just begun taking medication for this condition. You, HANI RIHAN, completed and signed the application, and had M.K. sign it. 14. Where the insurance application asked whether M.K., or her husband, had ever had any history of high blood pressure, you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." 15. Where the insurance application asked whether M.K., or her husband, were currently taking any medication, you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." 16. In or around April, 2002, M.K.'s husband submitted a claim to Mid-West for payment of various medical testing, which had been ordered by their doctor. The claim was denied by Mid-West on or about July 26, 2002. The claim was denied by Mid-West because, relying upon M.K. and her husband's medical records, the claim was based upon a pre-existing condition. Specifically, that pre-existing condition was M.K.'s husband's history of high-blood pressure and the fact that he had been prescribed medication for that condition. Mid-West stated that no benefits are provided for any loss resulting from a pre-existing condition. IT IS THEREFORE CHARGED that you, HANI RIHAN, have violated or are accountable under the following provisions of the Florida Insurance Code and Rules of the Department of Financial Services which constitute grounds for the suspension or revocation of your license and appointments: (a) Willful misrepresentation of any insurance policy or annuity contract or willful deception with regard to any such policy or contract, done either in person or by any form of dissemination of information or advertising.

Section 626.621(6), Florida Statutes (2002). (h) Knowingly making a false or fraudulent written or oral statement or representation on, or relative to, an application or negotiation for an insurance policy for the purpose of obtaining a fee, commission, money, or other benefit from any insurer, agent, broker, or individual. Section 626.9541(1)(k), Florida Statutes (2002). COUNT I 17. The above general allegations are hereby realleged and fully incorporated herein by reference. 18. On or about December 6, 2001, you, HANI RIHAN, went to the home of P.J., of Palm Harbor, Florida, in order to sell her, and her husband, a Mid-West health insurance policy, Prior to your arrival at her home, P.J. told you over the telephone that she had a past history of leukemia, but had been released by her doctor. You, HANI RIHAN, led P.J. to believe that her past history of leukemia would not hinder her from obtaining health coverage from Mid-West. You, HANI RIHAN, completed the insurance application relevant to questions you asked of P.J. While filling out the application for insurance, P.J. reminded you again, HANI RIHAN, of her past history of leukemia. You, HANI RIHAN, completed and signed the application, and had P.J. sign it. 19. Where the insurance application asked whether P.J., or her husband, had ever had any history of leukemia, you, HANI RIHAN, listed the answer as "NO." 20. On or about February 25, 2002, Mid-West denied the application for health insurance of P.J. and her husband. The application was denied, in part, because Mid-West, upon revicw of P.J. and her husband's medical records, discovered P.J.'s history of leukemia. IT IS THEREFORE CHARGED that you, HANI RIHAN, have violated or are accountable under the following provisions of the Florida Insurance Code and Rules of the Department of Financial Services which constitute grounds for the suspension or revocation of your license and appointments: (a) Willful misrepresentation of any insurance policy or annuity contract or willful deception with regard to any such policy or contract, done either in person or by any form of dissemination of information or advertising.
