(3) The form is submitted in the final printed form intended for actual issue, unless the insurer requests tentative approval under § 89.4(d) (Reserved). A form submitted for tentative approval is in draft, printer’s-proof, photocopied, ‘‘filer’’ or some other legible form.
(4) The form number and the wording of the form are printed in easily readable type.
(5) Logos are or are not present and are more or less prominent than the company name.
