106.8. If there is a termination or suspension of the casino license, a voluntary or involuntary change in the company, or a material change in ownership, then the casino licensee shall file an interim quarterly report as of the date the event occurs, unless the event has already been disclosed in a regular quarterly report or unless exempted by the Commission. The filing date is thirty calendar days after the date the event occurs.

106.9. An adjustment that results from the quarterly and annual audits shall be recorded in the accounting records. If an adjustment was not reflected in the casino licensee's quarterly or annual reports and if the West Virginia Lottery concludes that the adjustment is significant, then it may require a revised report from the casino licensee. The revised filing is due within thirty calendar days after written notification to the casino licensee.
