     main event or the entire program of contests or exhibitions, the
     promoter shall refund the full purchase price of each ticket to
     any person who presents the entire ticket for a refund within
     ten days after the scheduled date of the event. The promoter
     shall announce the postponement or cancellation at the beginning
     of the program and at other times during the event as the
     commission shall prescribe and shall notify the ticketholders in
     each announcement that they may present their ticket stubs for a

     postponement and the right to refund be posted at the site of
     the event in such manner as it may prescribe. After the event
     has concluded, a promoter who has complied with this subsection
     need not refund the purchase price upon presentation of a ticket
     stub.
        (b)  Forfeiture of security.--Failure of any promoter or
     foreign copromoter to comply with the provisions of subsection
     (a) shall be sufficient cause to warrant a forfeiture of his
     bond or other security and an imposition of a penalty or
     suspension or revocation of his license by the department as
     provided under section 1304 (relating to suspension or
     revocation of licenses or permits) or 1305 (relating to civil
     penalties).
        (c)  Pro rata refunds.--From the fund produced by the
     forfeiture, pro rata refunds shall be made by the department to
     persons who purchased tickets, in accordance with subsection
     (a).
