§ 1111. Rights  and responsibilities of party states. Each party state
in the compact shall:
  a. accept the decisions of the compact committee on  the  issuance  or
renewal  of licenses, and reimburse or otherwise pay the expenses of its
official in the compact committee;
  b.  not  treat  any  notification  of  an  applicant  by  the  compact
committee, that his or her application will not be processed further, as
the  denial  of a license or otherwise penalize such an applicant solely
because of such action by the compact committee;
  c. reserve the right:

(1) to charge a fee for the use of a compact license within that party state, for which the commission shall charge the fee, for each license category, set forth in sections two hundred thirteen and three hundred nine of this chapter;

(2) to apply its own standards to determine whether a compact committee license should be suspended or revoked;

(3) to apply its own standards for licensure or renewal of state applicants who do not meet the licensure requirements of the compact committee, or who are within a category of participants in live racing that the compact committee does not license; and

(4) to apply its own standards for licensure of nonracing employees at horse race tracks and at separate or satellite wagering facilities; d. through its racing commission or its equivalent, promptly notify the compact committee of any suspension or revocation that the party state has imposed on a compact committee licensee; and e. not be held liable for the debts or other financial obligations incurred by the compact committee.
