  1 12 operate a gambling game operation on an excursion
  1 13 gambling boat.  The applicant shall provide
  1 14 information on a form as required by the division of
  1 15 criminal investigation.  A qualified sponsoring
  1 16 organization licensed to operate gambling games under
  1 17 this chapter shall distribute the receipts of all
  1 18 gambling games, less reasonable expenses, charges,
  1 19 taxes, fees, and deductions allowed under this

  1 22 public, charitable, patriotic, or religious uses as
  1 23 defined in section 99B.7, subsection 3, paragraph "b".
  1 24 However, if a licensee who is also licensed to conduct
  1 25 pari-mutuel wagering at a horse racetrack has unpaid
  1 26 debt from the pari-mutuel racetrack operations, the
  1 27 first receipts of the gambling games operated within
  1 28 the racetrack enclosure less reasonable operating
  1 29 expenses, taxes, and fees allowed under this chapter
  1 30 shall be first used to pay the annual indebtedness.
  1 31 After any annual indebtedness liability is paid, the
  1 32 commission shall require that at least twenty-five
  1 33 percent of the remaining receipts from gambling games
  1 34 at a horse racetrack enclosure shall be used to
  1 35 supplement purses for horse races.  The commission
  1 36 shall also authorize, subject to the debt payments for
  1 37 horse racetracks and the provisions of paragraph "b"
  1 38 for dog racetracks, a licensee who is also licensed to
  1 39 conduct pari-mutuel dog or horse racing to use
  1 40 receipts from gambling games within the racetrack
  1 41 enclosure to supplement purses for races particularly
  1 42 for Iowa-bred horses pursuant to an agreement which
  1 43 shall be negotiated between the licensee and
  1 44 representatives of the dog or horse owners.  A
  1 45 qualified sponsoring organization shall not make a
  1 46 contribution to a candidate, political committee,
