(2) This section shall not apply to a subscriber who generates the key pair using a system approved by the certification authority.
37. All material representations made by the subscriber to a certification authority for purposes of obtaining a certificate, including all information known to the subscriber and represented in the certificate, shall be accurate and complete to the best of the subscriber’s knowledge and belief, regardless of whether such representations are confirmed by the certification authority.

to one or more persons; or
(ii)
in a repository; or
