Current through Vol. 41, No. 20, July 1, 2024
(a) A
				prototype of an Electronic Amusement Game, Electronic Bonanza-Style Bingo Game,
				or Electronic Instant Bingo Game, or any Component thereof, which a Racetrack
				Gaming Operator Licensee intends to offer for play shall be tested and
				certified by an Independent Testing Laboratory as meeting the Standards
				contained in the Act and the Use and Operation Requirements.
(b) A Racetrack Gaming Operator Licensee
				shall provide, or require that the Manufacturer or Vendor provide to the
				Independent Testing Laboratory a written request as to each game for which
				certification is sought, any fees required to be deposited with the Independent
				Testing Laboratory, and, on a confidential basis: two (2) copies of the game
				illustrations, schematics, block diagrams, circuit analyses, technical and
				enterprise manuals, program object and source codes, hexadecimal dumps (the
				compiled computer program represented in base 16 format), and any other
				information requested by the Independent Testing Laboratory. The Racetrack
				Gaming Operator Licensee shall send copies of the requests for certification to
				the Commission when made and shall make all materials submitted to the
				Independent Testing Laboratory available to the Commission upon request. Any
				materials so submitted which are designated by the Manufacturer or Vendor as
				proprietary shall remain confidential and shall not be subject to the
				disclosure requirements of the Oklahoma Open Records Act.
(c) If requested by the Independent Testing
				Laboratory, the Racetrack Gaming Operator Licensee shall require the
				Manufacturer or Vendor to transport not more than two (2) working models of the
				game for which certification is sought to a location designated by the
				Independent Testing Laboratory for testing, examination, and/or analysis.
				Neither the State nor the Independent Testing Laboratory shall be liable for
				any costs associated with the transportation, testing, examination, or
				analysis, including any damage to the Components of the game. If requested by
				the Independent Testing Laboratory, the Racetrack Gaming Operator Licensee
				shall require the Manufacturer or Vendor to provide specialized equipment or
				the services of an independent technical expert to assist with the testing,
				examination, and/or analysis. At the conclusion of each test, the Independent
				Testing Laboratory shall provide to the Commission a report that contains
				findings, conclusions and a certification that the game conforms or fails to
				conform to the Standards contained in the Act. If the Independent Testing
				Laboratory determines that the game fails to conform to such Standards, and if
				Modifications can be made which would bring the game into compliance, the
				report may contain recommendations for such Modifications. The Independent
				Testing Laboratory shall retest for compliance following such Modifications.
				The Independent Testing Laboratory shall report all findings and conclusions to
				the Racetrack Gaming Operator Licensee, the Manufacturer/Vendor and the
				Commission provided that at any time prior to issuance of a final report by the
				Independent Testing Laboratory, the Racetrack Gaming Operator Licensee may
				instruct it to terminate the process, in which case no report shall be
				made.
