36-11A-31. Bond or other security required--Purpose--Exemption--License required for each facility.
The board shall require every wholesale distributor applying for a license to submit a bond of at least one hundred thousand dollars, or other equivalent means of security acceptable to the board, such as an irrevocable letter of credit or a deposit in a trust account or financial institution, payable to a fund established by the board. The board shall establish a fund, separate from its other accounts, in which to deposit the wholesale distributor bonds. Any chain pharmacy warehouse that is not engaged in wholesale distribution is exempt from the bond requirement. The purpose of the bond is to secure payment of any fines or penalties imposed by the board and any fees and costs incurred by the board regarding that license, which are authorized pursuant to statute and which the licensee fails to pay thirty days after the fines, penalties, or costs become final. The board may make a claim against such bond or security until one year after the licensee's license ceases to be valid. A single bond may suffice to cover all facilities operated by the applicant in the state.
If a wholesale distributor distributes prescription drugs from more than one facility, the wholesale distributor shall obtain a license for each facility.
