Notwithstanding the provisions of any law, rule or regulation to the contrary, the Commissioner of Insurance may waive any requirement that a foreign or alien insurance or surety company which has applied for a certificate of authority to transact business in this State shall, for a period of five years prior to the date of the application for the New Jersey certificate of authority, have been authorized by its state or country of domicile to engage in, and in fact have been actively engaged in, the kind of insurance business for which it seeks the certificate of authority, if the insurer or surety meets all other requirements for admission to this State and upon a finding, by the commissioner, that the line or lines of insurance for which the insurer or surety has applied for a certificate of authority are presently underserved in this State.
