FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
- The successful completion of the Idaho real estate salesperson's licensing examination,
and the granting of a real estate salesperson's license by Idaho, shall be recognized by Tennessee in
satisfaction of its licensing examination and prelicense real estate education requirements for real
estate salesperson, and will enable an Idaho salesperson to obtain, upon filing the proper application
and payment of the required fees, a Tennessee salesperson's license.

and the granting of a resident real estate salesperson's license by Tennessee, shall be recognized by

- The successful completion of the Idaho real estate broker's licensing examination and the
granting of a primary real estate broker's license by Idaho shall be recognized by Tennessee in

- The type of license held;
- The dates of licensure and the expiration date of current license;

regulations of the state issuing the license, including the laws regarding the proper location of trust
funds and entrusted property.

civil action in the form prescribed by the state issuing the license.
- Applicants for licensure under this Agreement shall agree to submit to the jurisdiction of
the state issuing the license, for purposes of audit, investigation and disciplinary action.
- The duration of this Agreement shall be ongoing until terminated in accordance with the
terms herein.

to, in the exercise of its discretion, refuse any application for licensure for just cause.

There will be no joint funding nor any shared costs of administration between the two state licensing
authorities.

the other state. Any such termination will occur midnight of the 60th day after written notice is
received by the other state. The notice of termination shall recite, within it, the effective date of the
