§ 176. Assignment or transfer of license; change of location; additional locations. A license granted as provided in this article shall not be valid for any person other than the person to whom it is issued or any place other than that designated in the license and shall not be assigned or transferred without the consent of the commissioner. Applications for such consent shall be made in the same manner as an application for a license, and all the provisions of sections one hundred seventy-three and one hundred seventy-four shall apply to applications for such consent. The location of an employment agency shall not be changed without the consent of the commissioner, and such change of location shall be indorsed upon the license. A person who has obtained an employment agency license in accordance with the provisions of this article, may apply for an additional license to conduct an additional employment agency, in accordance with the provisions of section one hundred seventy-three. The manner of application, and the conditions and terms applicable to the issuance of such license shall be the same as for an initial or original license except that the said license shall not extend beyond the termination date of the original license. An additional bond shall be furnished to the commissioner issuing the additional license, and the terms of said bond shall be such as to make it payable as well to the people of the state of New York or of the city of New York, as the case may be.
