on the jackpot payout slip. The payout request slip must be signed by the Slot
Attendant and a verifier witnessing the payout. Procedures for replenishment of
supplemental jackpot payout funds must comply with all other requirements of
this regulation. Licensees utilizing payout request slips must attach the
payout request slip to the duplicate copy of the jackpot payout slip.

cage cashier. A verifier witnessing the jackpot payout to the patron must sign
the original override jackpot payout slip.
3. Manual Jackpot Payouts. Manual jackpot
payout slips must be authorized by a Slot Supervisor or Slot Manager. All
manual jackpot payout slips shall have the reason for the manual payout.
Signatures attesting to the accuracy of the information contained on the
original, duplicate and triplicate copies of the manual jackpot payout slip
shall be of the cage cashier who prepared the payout slip and Slot Supervisor
or Slot Manager. A verifier witnessing the payout to the patron must sign the
original manual jackpot payout slip.
