A. The sale, transfer, assignment, or alienation of a casino operating contract, or an interest therein in violation of the provisions of this Chapter is prohibited.
B. The corporation may approve the sale, transfer, or assignment of a casino operating contract, or an interest therein, or may grant such approval subject to conditions imposed by the corporation.
C. The sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, alienation, disposition, public offering, or acquisition of a security or securities that results in one person owning five percent or more of the total outstanding shares issued by a person that holds a casino operating contract is void as to the person owning more than a five percent interest without prior approval of the board.
D. A security issued in certificate form by a person that holds a casino operating contract must bear, on both sides of the certificate, a statement of the restrictions imposed by this Chapter. However, for a publicly traded corporation incorporated before June 30, 1992, a statement of restriction is necessary only for certificates issued by the corporation after the corporation applies for a license.
E. Every person who has or controls more than a five percent ownership, income, or profit interest in an entity that has or applies for a contract in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter, or who has the ability, in the opinion of the board, to exercise a significant influence over the activities of a casino gaming operator authorized or to be authorized by this Chapter, shall meet all suitability requirements and qualifications for licensees. The corporation may also issue, under penalty of revocation of license, a condition of disqualification naming the person or persons and declaring that such person or persons may not:
(1) Receive dividends or interest on securities of the corporation.
(2) Exercise directly or indirectly, including through a trustee or nominee, a right conferred by securities of the corporation.
(3) Receive remuneration from the casino gaming operator.
(4) Receive any economic benefit from the casino gaming operator.
(5) Continue in an ownership or economic interest in a casino gaming operations contract or remain as a manager, officer, director, or partner of a casino gaming operator.
F. No contract may be revoked under this Section unless the contractor is given notice and a reasonable opportunity to comply with the corporation's order.
G. After a casino operating contract or a gaming operator license is granted, any person acquiring five percent or more of the total outstanding shares of a licensee or five percent or more economic interest in an entity holding a casino operating contract is required to obtain the corporation's approval prior to such transaction. Failure to obtain prior corporation approval of a transfer is grounds for contract cancellation or license suspension or revocation.
