A. Any organization licensee that accepts full-card out-of-state simulcast wagering at any time during a calendar year shall be required to televise to all other racetracks licensed by the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission all of its live races, or the number of days of its live racing which is equivalent to the number of days of live racing conducted at the receiving track, whichever is less. Pari-mutuel wagering may be conducted on such races at all other racetracks licensed by the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission and may be allowed at their in-state offtrack pari-mutuel wagering facilities or at any other racetrack or entity in another state or country. Money wagered on such races may be placed in separate or common pools as determined by rules of the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission. A written application to televise a race shall contain the details of such race, its agreements and contracts, and shall be submitted to the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission for its approval prior to the racing event. Such agreement shall comply with all applicable laws of the United States and the laws of this state. The proceeds of the agreement shall be distributed in the same manner as money wagered pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 1 of subsection B, in subsection D, and in subsection E of Section 205.6 of this title and Section 208.2 of this title.

B. For the days on which a licensed track within this state does not conduct live racing but conducts pari-mutuel wagering on races televised from another licensed track within this state or on out-of-state races, the conducting of pari-mutuel wagering shall not be considered racing days for the purposes of this title.

C. When any licensed track within this state conducts pari-mutuel wagering on races televised from another licensed track within this state, the receiving licensee shall not retransmit the sending licensee's signal without the express permission of the sending licensee.

D. Breakage and unclaimed ticket proceeds shall be distributed in the manner applicable to the races of the racing program of the organization licensees who are sending and receiving the racing program.
