Rev. Stat. 51:1924(D)(6) and 1926. The cost of the annual review shall be paid by each certified Louisiana capital company according to a reasonable fee schedule adopted under the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act.
B. Any violation of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926, other than La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926(A), shall be grounds for decertification of the certified Louisiana capital company and any investment pools that have not been decertified. A violation of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926(A) shall be grounds for decertification of the noncomplying investment pool in accordance with Subsection C of this Section. If the commissioner determines that a company is not in compliance with any requirements of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926, he shall, by written notice, inform the officers of the company and the board of directors, partners, managers, or members that the certified Louisiana capital company and any investment pools that have not yet been decertified, as the case may be, may be subject to involuntary decertification in one hundred twenty days from the date of mailing of the notice unless they correct the deficiencies and are again in compliance with all requirements for certification.
C. At the end of the one-hundred-twenty-day grace period, if the certified Louisiana capital company and any investment pools that have not yet been decertified, as the case may be, are still not in compliance with La.

Stat. 51:1926, the commissioner shall send a notice of involuntary decertification of the certified Louisiana capital company and any affected investment pools, as appropriate, to the company, to the secretary of the Department of Revenue, and the commissioner of the Department of Insurance. Voluntary or involuntary decertification of a certified Louisiana capital company and any affected investment pools may cause the forfeiture of the remaining and unclaimed income tax credits under this Chapter and premium tax credits under La. Rev. Stat. 22:832(E), which correspond to such certified Louisiana capital company or to such investment pools, respectively, and shall cause the recapture of all credits taken by investors with respect to such certified Louisiana capital company or to such investment pools, respectively, to be due and payable to the Department of Revenue or the Department of Insurance in the year of decertification, notwithstanding the years for which the credits were originally taken may have prescribed, as follows:
(1) If any investment pools are decertified due to the inability of a certified Louisiana capital company to comply with all requirements for continued certification under the provisions of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926 within three years of the investment dates of such investment pools, one hundred percent of all credits relating to such investment pools which have been taken by investors shall be due and payable and any remaining and previously unclaimed investor credits relating to such investment pools shall be forfeited.
(2) When a certified Louisiana capital company meets all requirements for continued certification of any investment pools under La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926, including La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926(A)(1), but excluding La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926(A)(2), those insurance premium tax credits relating to such investment pools which have been or will be taken by investors within three years from the investment dates of such investment pools will not be subject to recapture or repayment.
(3) When a certified Louisiana capital company meets all requirements of Paragraph (2) of this Subsection and subsequently fails to meet the requirements for continued certification of any investment pools under the provisions of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926, only those insurance premium tax credits that have been or will be taken by investors after the third anniversary of the investment dates of such investment pools shall be subject to recapture and repayment and any other remaining and previously unclaimed insurance premium tax credits shall be forfeited.
(4) When a certified capital company meets all requirements for continued certification of any investment pools, including La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926(A)(1) and (2), no insurance premium tax credits or income tax credits relating to such pools shall be subject to recapture, repayment, retaliation, or forfeiture.
(5) The secretary may promulgate rules and regulations regarding the recapture or forfeiture of income tax credits associated with pools which are certified on or after January 1, 1999, and which fail to meet the continuing certification requirements of La. Rev. Stat. 51:1926.
