against any boxer participating in the event; (b) all payments,
benefits, complimentary benefits and fees the organization or entity
will receive for its affiliation with the event; (c) the name of the

perjury detailing all charges, fees, costs and expenses by or through
the promoter on the boxer pertaining to the event, including any portion

expenses and all payments, gifts or benefits the promoter is providing
to any sanctioning organization affiliated with the event. Such written
statement shall be filed in a form and manner acceptable to the

during the twelve month period beginning on the day after the last day
of the promotional right period described in subdivision four of this
