                                  CHAPTER 77
                              BINGO AND RAFFLES
    67-7718.  LICENSED DISTRIBUTOR REQUIREMENTS AND DUTIES. (1) A licensed
distributor shall purchase, rent, lease or otherwise obtain electronic bingo
devices and site system software only from a manufacturer licensed by the
commission. A licensed distributor shall sell, rent, lease or otherwise
provide, only electronic bingo devices and site system software that have been
approved by the commission.
    (2)  A licensed distributor shall sell, rent, lease or otherwise provide
electronic bingo devices and site system software in this state only to an
organization holding a charitable gaming bingo license.
    (3)  Before the initial use by the licensed organization, the licensed
distributor must notify the commission in writing of the sale, rental, lease,
provision, and/or installation of any electronic bingo devices or site system
software. Such notification shall include:
    (a)  The complete name and address of the licensed organization and its
    license number;
    (b)  The type of equipment, including serial numbers, sold, rented,
    leased, provided or installed;
    (c)  The expected start-up date for use of the equipment by the licensed
    organization; and
    (d)  A copy of any agreement between the licensed distributor and the
    organization for the use of the equipment.
    (4)  The licensed distributor shall serve as the initial contact for the
licensed organization with respect to requests for installation, service,
maintenance, or repair of electronic bingo devices and site systems, and for
the ordering of electronic bingo cards, if applicable. The distributor may, as
needed, enlist the aid of the licensed manufacturer in providing service,
repair or maintenance of the devices or site system. A licensed manufacturer
may, with commission approval, authorize or subcontract with a person or
company to service, maintain or repair bingo card monitoring devices and/or
site systems; however, the ultimate liability for such service, maintenance or
repair shall be solely that of the licensed manufacturer.
    (5)  The licensed distributor shall invoice the licensed organization and
collect any and all payments for the sale, rental, lease or other use of the
electronic bingo cards, bingo card monitoring devices and site systems. The
distributor may, at its discretion, allow the licensed manufacturer to
generate the invoice; however, all payments by the licensed organization must
be remitted directly to the distributor. The licensed distributor must ensure
that its name, complete address, and telephone number appear on the invoice as
well as the name, complete address and license number of the licensed
organization.
    (6)  Electronic bingo devices may be transported by a licensed distributor
from one (1) location to another for use by more than one (1) licensed
organization provided the distributor notifies the commission of the rotation
schedule of the devices. However, each licensed organization utilizing a site
system must have its own site system, which cannot be moved from its bingo
location or be used by another organization without prior approval from the
commission.
