    1.   In the event of the death or mental or physical incapacity of a licensed real estate broker where no other member or officer in the agency, copartnership, association or corporation of which he was a member or officer is the holder of a broker-salesperson's license or where an individual broker operating as a sole proprietor dies or is mentally or physically incapacitated leaving no employee holding a real estate broker-salesperson's license, then the Real Estate Commission may issue a temporary broker's license on a special form to another person for the purpose of enabling such other person to continue the real estate activities on behalf of and under the same designation of said agency, copartnership, association, corporation or individual, as the case may be, upon the filing of an application and a certified copy of the death certificate or a certification of mental or physical incapacity executed by a duly licensed physician or officer of a medical institution, together with payment of the regular license fee; provided such other person has been the holder of a real estate salesperson's license for at least three years immediately preceding the date of the application and provided that said application shall have been made within 30 days from date of the demise or incapacity of said broker. 

   Such temporary license shall continue only until the licensee is afforded an opportunity of pursuing the approved broker's course in accordance with the provisions of subsection b. of section 1 of P.L.1966, c.227 (C.45:15-10.1) and qualifying by examination.  Such license may be issued and effective for a period of one year from the date of issuance.  Such temporary license shall not be extended or renewed.
