Any person who violates any provision of this act or any person who, in an application for registration filed with the commission, makes any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact shall be fined not less than $250, nor more than $50,000, per violation. c. The commission may levy and collect the penalties set forth in subsection b. of this section after affording the person alleged to be in violation of this act an opportunity to appear before the commission and to be heard personally or through counsel on the alleged violations and a finding by the commission that said person is guilty of the violation.

The commission may, in the interest of justice, compromise any civil penalty, if in its determination the gravity of the offense or offenses does not warrant the assessment of the full fine.
