(a) Beginning in program year 2019, no retailer who first sells, through a sales outlet, catalogue, or the Internet, a CED at retail to an individual for residential use may sell or offer for sale any CED in or for delivery into this State unless:
(1) the CED is labeled with a brand, and the label is |
| permanently affixed and readily visible; and

|
(2) the manufacturer is registered with the Agency at
|
| the time the retailer purchases the CED.
|
|
(b) A retailer shall be considered to have complied with paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection (a) if:

|
| 30 days of a retailer taking possession of the manufacturer's CED;
|
|
(2) a manufacturer's registration expires and the
|
| retailer ordered the CED prior to the expiration, in which case the retailer may sell the CED, but only if the sale takes place within 180 days of the expiration; or
|
|

|
| and has no successor in interest, in which case the retailer may sell any orphan CED ordered prior to the discontinuation of business.
