Unless prior written approval is granted by the manager, no tickets shall be sold or utilized for admission to stadium events other than those which are printed by the bonded printer or the automated ticketing system.(c) If the licensee prints the tickets, a proof of the ticket shall be submitted to the manager for approval prior to printing for purposes of form and accuracy.(d) Commercial or promotional advertising shall not be printed on either side of the admission ticket without the prior written approval of the manager.(e) Tickets printed may be consigned to the licensee at the discretion of the manager and upon such terms and conditions as the manager deems appropriate. Consignments of tickets from other sales locations shall not be permitted.(f) Contractual arrangements with agencies for the distribution or sale of tickets to any stadium event shall first be approved by the manager. (g) No ticket for a stadium event shall be sold by the licensee or its agent at a price other than that which is printed thereon without prior written approval of the manager.(h) The manager shall determine whether or not tickets shall be refunded and the terms and conditions thereof.
