If the Board determines that a publicly traded corporation registered with the Commission, or any of its affiliates or intermediary companies, have ceased engaging in gaming activities in Nevada, the Board may, upon its own motion, recommend that the Commission deregister the publicly traded corporation. Before making such a recommendation for deregistration, the Board shall provide at least 30 days’ notice to the publicly traded corporation that it intends to move for deregistration. If the Board is unable to confirm that notice has been received by the publicly traded corporation, the Board shall provide notice to the last known address of the registered agent of the publicly traded corporation. If the Commission issues an order deregistering the publicly traded corporation, a copy of the order must be provided to the publicly traded corporation together with a notice that the publicly traded corporation must apply, within 3 years after the date of the order of deregistration, to the Commission for a refund of any money of the publicly traded corporation held by the Board. If the Commission is unable to confirm that the publicly traded corporation has received the order, the Commission shall provide the order to the last known address of the registered agent of the publicly traded corporation. The publicly traded corporation must apply to the Board for a refund of any investigative or other money of the publicly traded corporation held by the Board within 3 years after the date of deregistration. The money of the publicly traded corporation for which a refund is not requested within 3 years after the date of deregistration is presumed abandoned and is subject to the provisions of chapter 120A of NRS.  3. The Commission may adopt regulations that generally or selectively impose on any publicly traded corporation any requirement not inconsistent with law which it may deem necessary in the public interest. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, any such requirement may deal with the same subject matter as, but be more stringent than, the requirements imposed by NRS 463.482 to 463.645, inclusive.
