No insurer or advisory organization shall make any arrangement with any other insurer, advisory organization or other person which has the purpose or effect or restraining trade unreasonably or of substantially lessening competition in the business of insurance.

The fact that two or more insurers, whether or not members or subscribers of the advisory organization, use consistently or intermittently, the same rates, rating plans, rating schedules, rating rules, policy forms, rate classifications, underwriting rules, surveys or inspections or similar materials is not sufficient in itself to support a finding that an agreement exists.
