     § 1317.  Supplier licenses.
        (a)  Application.--A manufacturer that elects to contract
     with a supplier under section 1317.1(d.1) (relating to
     manufacturer licenses) shall ensure that the supplier is
     licensed under this section. A person seeking to provide slot
     machines or associated equipment to a slot machine licensee
     within this Commonwealth through a contract with a licensed
     manufacturer shall apply to the board for a supplier license.
        (b)  Requirements.--An application for a supplier license
     shall be on the form required by the board, accompanied by the
     application fee, and shall include all of the following:
            (1)  The name and business address of the applicant and
        the applicant's affiliates, intermediaries, subsidiaries and
        holding companies; the principals and key employees of each
        business; and a list of employees and their positions within
        each business, as well as any financial information required
        by the board.
            (1.1)  A statement that the applicant and each affiliate,
        intermediary, subsidiary or holding company of the applicant
        are not slot machine licensees.
            (1.2)  Proof that the applicant has or will establish a
        principal place of business in this Commonwealth. A supplier
        licensee shall maintain its principal place of business in
        this Commonwealth to remain eligible for licensure.
            (2)  The consent to a background investigation of the
        applicant, its principals and key employees or other persons
        required by the board and a release to obtain any and all
        information necessary for the completion of the background
        investigation.
            (3)  The details of any equivalent license granted or
        denied by other jurisdictions where gaming activities as
        authorized by this part are permitted and consent for the
        board to acquire copies of applications submitted or licenses
        issued in connection therewith.
            (4)  The type of goods and services to be supplied and
        whether those goods and services will be provided through
        purchase, lease, contract or otherwise.
            (5)  Any other information determined by the board to be
        appropriate.
        (c)  Review and approval.--Upon being satisfied that the
     requirements of subsection (b) have been met, the board may
     approve the application and issue the applicant a supplier
     license consistent with all of the following:
            (1)  The license shall be for a period of one year. Upon
        expiration, the license may be renewed in accordance with
        subsection (d).
            (2)  The license shall be nontransferable.
            (3)  Any other condition established by the board.
        (d)  Renewal.--
            (1)  Two months prior to expiration of a supplier
        license, the supplier licensee seeking renewal of its license
        shall submit a renewal application accompanied by the renewal
        fee to the board.
            (2)  If the renewal application satisfies the
        requirements of subsection (b), the board may renew the
        licensee's supplier license.
            (3)  If the board receives a complete renewal application
        but fails to act upon the renewal application prior to the
        expiration of the supplier license, the supplier license
        shall continue in effect for an additional six-month period
        or until acted upon by the board, whichever occurs first.
        (e)  Prohibitions.--No limitation shall be placed on the
     number of supplier licenses issued or the time period to submit
     applications for licensure except as required to comply with
     section 1306 (relating to order of initial license issuance).
