§ 11.5.

In the event that liability upon the bond filed by a distributor, supplier, or receiver with the Department shall be discharged or reduced, whether by judgment rendered, payment made or otherwise, or if in the opinion of the Department the bond of any distributor, supplier, or receiver theretofore given shall become unsatisfactory, then the distributor, supplier, or receiver shall forthwith, upon the written demand of the Department, file a new bond in the same manner and form and in an amount and with sureties satisfactory to the Department, failing which the Department shall forthwith revoke the license of the distributor, supplier, or receiver. If such new bond shall be furnished by the distributor, supplier, or receiver as above provided, the Department shall cancel the bond for which such new bond shall be substituted. Any surety on any bond furnished by any distributor, supplier, or receiver shall be released and discharged from any and all liability to the State of Illinois accruing on such bond after the expiration of 60 days from the date upon which such surety shall have filed with the Department written request so to be released and discharged. But such request shall not operate to relieve, release or discharge such surety from any liability already accrued, or which shall accrue, before the expiration of said 60-day period. The Department shall, promptly on receipt of such request, notify the distributor, supplier, or receiver and, unless such distributor, supplier, or receiver shall on or before the expiration of such 60-day period file with the Department a new bond with a surety or sureties satisfactory to the Department in the amount and form hereinbefore provided, the Department shall forthwith cancel the license of such distributor, supplier, or receiver. If such new bond shall be furnished by said distributor, supplier, or receiver as above provided, the Department shall cancel the bond for which such new bond shall be substituted.
