(d)It is a material violation of the Texas Timeshare Act for a person to procure or attempt to procure a registration or amendment to a registration by fraud, misrepresentation, or deceit or by making a material misstatement of fact in an application filed with the Commission.

(e)It is a material violation of the Texas Timeshare Act for a person to disregard or violate a rule of the Commission.

(f)It is a material violation of the Texas Timeshare Act for a developer to fail to make good a check issued to the Commission one month after the Commission has mailed a request for payment by certified mail to the developer's last known mailing address as reflected by the Commission's records.

(g)It is a material violation of the Texas Timeshare Act for a developer to fail, not later than the 14th day after the date of a request, to provide information or documents requested by the Commission or a Commission representative in the course of the investigation of a complaint.

(h)It is a material violation of the Texas Timeshare Act for a developer to fail to properly file an assumed name as required by §221.037(b) of the Texas Timeshare Act or to fail to give the Commission timely written notice of the developer's use of an assumed name.
