(b) In addition, each cash storage box shall:

1. (1) Have a lock securing the contents of the cash storage box;
2. (2) Have an opening through which currency, gaming tickets, and coupons can be inserted into the cash storage box;
3. (3) Have a mechanical arrangement or device that prohibits removal of currency, gaming tickets, and coupons from the EGS opening whenever the cash storage box is removed from the bill acceptor;

4. (4)

   1. (A) Be fully enclosed, except for such openings as may be required for the operation of the bill acceptor or the cash storage box.
   2. (B) Provided, however, that the location and size of such openings shall not affect the security of the cash storage box, its contents, or the bill acceptor, and shall be approved by the commission; and

5. (5)

   1. (A) Have an asset number that is imprinted, affixed, or impressed on the outside of the cash storage box which corresponds to the asset number of the EGS to which the bill acceptor has been attached.
   2. (B) In lieu of the asset number, a franchise holder may develop and maintain, with prior commission approval, a system for assigning a unique identification number to its cash storage boxes, which system ensures that each cash storage box can readily be identified, either manually or by computer, when in use with, attached to, and removed from a particular bill acceptor.
   3. (C) Each such unique identification number shall be permanently imprinted, affixed, or impressed on the outside of each cash storage box that does not otherwise bear an asset number.
   4. (D) The asset number or unique identification number must be conspicuous and clearly visible to persons involved in removing or replacing the cash storage box in the bill acceptor and through the franchise holder’s closed circuit camera coverage system.
   5. (E) The size and location of the asset number or unique identification number are subject to prior approval by the commission.
   6. (F) Notwithstanding the foregoing, emergency cash storage boxes may be maintained without such numbers, provided the word “emergency” is permanently imprinted, affixed, or impressed thereon, and when put into use, are temporarily marked with the asset number of the EGS to which the bill acceptor is attached.
