§ 463.370. Monthly fee for state license; fee for licensee operating less than full month; proportionate share of other persons; underpayments and overpayments; cessation of operation; offset of certain losses

1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 463.373 , the Commission shall charge and collect from each licensee a license fee based upon

all the gross revenue of the licensee as follows: (a) Three and one-half percent of all the gross revenue of the licensee which does

not exceed $50,000 per calendar month; (b) Four and one-half percent of all the gross revenue of the licensee which exceeds

$50,000 per calendar month and does not exceed $134,000 per calendar month; and (c) Six and three-quarters percent of all the gross revenue of the licensee which

exceeds $134,000 per calendar month. 2. Unless the licensee has been operating for less than a full calendar month, the

Commission shall charge and collect the fee prescribed in subsection 1, based upon

the gross revenue for the preceding calendar month, on or before the 15th day of the

following month. Except for the fee based on the first full month of operation, the fee is an estimated

payment of the license fee for the third month following the month whose gross revenue

is used as its basis. 3. When a licensee has been operating for less than a full calendar month, the Commission

shall charge and collect the fee prescribed in subsection 1, based on the gross revenue

received during that month, on or before the 15th day of the following calendar month

of operation. After the first full calendar month of operation, the Commission shall charge and

collect the fee based on the gross revenue received during that month, on or before

the 15th day of the following calendar month. The payment of the fee due for the first full calendar month of operation must be

accompanied by the payment of a fee equal to three times the fee for the first full

calendar month. This additional amount is an estimated payment of the license fees for the next

3 calendar months. Thereafter, each license fee must be paid in the manner described in subsection

2. Any deposit held by the Commission on July 1, 1969, must be treated as an advance

estimated payment. 4. All revenue received from any game or gaming device which is operated on the premises

of a licensee, regardless of whether any portion of the revenue is shared with any

other person, must be attributed to the licensee for the purposes of this section

and counted as part of the gross revenue of the licensee. Any other person who is authorized to receive a share of the revenue from any game

or gaming device that is operated on the premises of a licensee is liable to the licensee

for that person's proportionate share of the license fees paid by the licensee pursuant

to this section and shall remit or credit the full proportionate share to the licensee

on or before the 15th day of each calendar month. A licensee is not liable to any other person authorized to receive a share of the

licensee's revenue from any game or gaming device that is operated on the premises

of the licensee for that person's proportionate share of the license fees to be remitted

or credited to the licensee by that person pursuant to this section. 5. Any person required to pay a fee pursuant to this section shall file with the Commission,

on or before the 15th day of each calendar month, a report showing the amount of all

gross revenue received during the preceding calendar month. Each report must be accompanied by: (a) The fee due based on the revenue of the month covered by the report; and (b) An adjustment for the difference between the estimated fee previously paid for

the month covered by the report, if any, and the fee due for the actual gross revenue

earned in that month. If the adjustment is less than zero, a credit must be applied to the estimated fee

due with that report. 6. If the amount of license fees required to be reported and paid pursuant to this

section is later determined to be greater or less than the amount actually reported

and paid, the Commission shall: (a) Charge and collect the additional license fees determined to be due, with interest

thereon until paid; or (b) Refund any overpayment to the person entitled thereto pursuant to this chapter,

with interest thereon. Interest pursuant to paragraph (a) must be computed at the rate prescribed in NRS 17.130 from the first day of the first month following the due date of the additional license

fees until paid. Interest pursuant to paragraph (b) must be computed at one-half the rate prescribed

in NRS 17.130 from the first day of the first month following the date of overpayment until paid. 7. Failure to pay the fees provided for in this section shall be deemed a surrender

of the license at the expiration of the period for which the estimated payment of

fees has been made, as established in subsection 2. 8. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 463.386 , the amount of the fee prescribed in subsection 1 must not be prorated. 9. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 463.386 , if a licensee ceases operation, the Commission shall: (a) Charge and collect the additional license fees determined to be due with interest

computed pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 6; or (b) Refund any overpayment to the licensee with interest computed pursuant to paragraph

(b) of subsection 6, based upon the gross revenue of the licensee during the last 3 months immediately

preceding the cessation of operation, or portions of those last 3 months. 10. If in any month, the amount of gross revenue is less than zero, the licensee may

offset the loss against gross revenue in succeeding months until the loss has been

fully offset. 11. If in any month, the amount of the license fee due is less than zero, the licensee

is entitled to receive a credit against any license fees due in succeeding months

until the credit has been fully offset.
