          2.  In computing the number of games operated or to be operated by an applicant under this section, a license authorizing the receiving of bets or wagers on races held at a track which uses the pari-mutuel system of wagering located outside of the State of Nevada, or on sporting events by any system or method of wagering other than the system known as the pari-mutuel method of wagering, shall be deemed a game within the meaning of this section.

          3.  All licenses must be issued for the calendar year beginning January 1 and expiring December 31. If the operation of the licensee is continuing, the Commission shall charge and collect the fee prescribed in subsection 1 on or before December 31 for the ensuing calendar year. If the operation is new or has been temporarily closed with the approval of the Board, the Commission shall prorate the license fee on a monthly basis. If any licensee desires to enlarge the licensee’s operations during the calendar year, the licensee must, after the licensee’s application is approved, be charged the full annual fees for the number of games for which the licensee desires a license under this section, and is entitled to credit thereon for the annual fee the licensee may have previously paid under this section for the same calendar year for a lesser number of games.

          4.  Card games, that is, stud or draw poker, bridge, whist, solo, low ball, and panguingui for money, and slot machines, when not utilized as an adjunct to or a unit of any banking, percentage or mechanical device or machine, are not gambling games under the provisions of this section.

          5.  All games operated or conducted in one room or a group of rooms in the same or a contiguous building are considered one operation under this section, and the license to be paid must be determined on the aggregate number of games in each room or group of rooms in the same or a contiguous building.

          6.  Except as otherwise provided in this section and NRS 463.386, the amount of the fee specified in subsection 1 must not be prorated.
