during such 12-month period, additional on-sale general licenses in
any county, on-sale general licenses may be transferred into such
county in a number not to exceed by more than 10 percent the number

that may be transferred into such county during that 12-month

satisfied, to pay out of the purchase price or consideration, whether
the consideration takes the form of cash, checks, promissory notes,
or tangible or intangible property, the claims of the bona fide
creditors of the licensee who file their claims with the escrow
holder before the escrow holder is notified by the department of its
approval of the transfer of the license or if the purchase price or

prior to the sale, transfer, or opening of an escrow for the sale
thereof.

the transferor for resale at his licensed premises and the payment of
claims for services rendered, performed, or supplied in connection
with the operation of the licensed business, and to the payment of
claims of a landlord, to the extent of proceeds on past due rent.
   Seventh, to the payment of other claims which have been reduced to
court-ordered judgments, including claims for court-ordered support
of a minor child.
   Eighth, to the payment of all other claims. The payment of these
claims if sufficient assets are not available for the payment of the
claim in full shall be paid pro rata.
   If the transferor licensee disputes any claim, the escrow holder
shall notify the claimant, and the amount or pro rata amount thereof
shall be retained by the escrow holder for a period of 25 days, and
if not attached shall be paid to the transferor licensee. The
agreement shall also provide that the escrow holder shall make the
payment or distribution within a reasonable time after the completion
of the transfer of the license.



24074.1.  Any person desiring to act as an escrow holder under
Section 24074 shall:
   1. Comply with all the applicable provisions of Chapter 1
(commencing with Section 17000) of Division 6 of the Financial Code.
   2. Not more than 10 days after receiving a claim from a creditor,
said escrow holder shall acknowledge receipt of each claim; and
   3. Not more than 10 days after the license has been transferred
and prior to the distribution of the assets held by said escrow
holder he shall advise each creditor who filed a claim against the
escrow whether or not there are sufficient assets in the escrow to
pay all creditors in full. If the assets in the escrow are sufficient
to pay all creditors in full, said escrow holder shall also advise
each creditor of the date on or before which payment will be made. If
there are not sufficient assets to pay all creditors in full, he
shall then advise each creditor who filed a claim of the following:
(a) the total assets placed in escrow with him and the nature of each
asset; (b) the name of each creditor who filed a claim against the
escrow and the amount of said claim; (c) the amount he proposes to
pay each creditor; and (d) the date on or before which said amount
will be paid to the creditors.



24074.2.  Any person desiring to act as an escrow holder under
Section 24074 shall not release any funds in the escrow in exchange
for a promissory note or in exchange for any other consideration of
less value to the creditors than the funds exchanged.




24074.3.  (a) Within 30 days after the filing of an application for
transfer of a license referred to in Section 24073, the intended
transferee shall file with the department a statement executed under
penalty of perjury that the purchase price or consideration as set
forth in the escrow agreement required by Section 24074 has been
deposited with the escrowholder. At the time such statement is filed
with the department copies thereof shall be submitted by the intended
transferee to the transferor and the escrowholder concerned. The
30-day period specified by this section may be extended by the
department for good cause; however, the license shall not be
transferred until the statement required by this section is received
by the department.
   (b) This section shall not apply in the case of transfers for
which a guaranty of payment has been filed pursuant to Section
24074.4.



24074.4.  (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 24074, no
escrow shall be required to be established in connection with the
transfer of a business or license if a corporate person files with
the department a guaranty of full, prompt, and faithful payment of
all claims of bona fide creditors of the licensee, and such guaranty
is acceptable to the creditors. The department shall not transfer the
license until the guarantor has paid all the creditors' claims in
full and the guarantor has filed with the department a statement
executed under penalty of perjury that all conditions of the transfer
have been satisfied. Payment of such claims by the guarantor shall
be made in United States currency or by certified check in a manner
acceptable to the creditors.
   (b) This section shall apply only in the case of a transfer
involving an off-sale beer and wine license, and in which the
guarantor corporation has a net worth on a consolidated basis,
according to its most recent audited financial statement, of not less
