The provisions of subdivision (b) of Section 1704 relating to the inactivation and reactivation of the underlying life agent's license, and the renewal thereof, shall apply to any authority issued pursuant to this article, except that references to agency appointments and terminations shall relate only to the underlying life agent's license.
