(2) The amount, if any, included for life, health and accident or other insurance, other than automobile insurance, shall not exceed the premiums charged by the insurer.
(3) Except as provided in ORS 743.377, the motor vehicle dealer or financing agency, if an amount for automobile or other insurance on the motor vehicle is included in a retail installment contract, shall within 30 days after execution of the retail installment contract send or cause to be sent to the buyer a policy or policies or certificate of insurance, written by an insurance company authorized to do business in this state, clearly setting forth the amount of the premium, the kind or kinds of insurance and the scope of the coverage and all the terms, exceptions, limitations, restrictions and conditions of the contract or contracts of insurance.
