     (d)  Failure to renew, pay the renewal fee, and in the case of audited licensees, provide documentation of compliance shall constitute a forfeiture of the license, which may be restored only upon the submission of written application therefor, payment to the board of a restoration fee, and in the case of audited licensees, documentation of compliance.

     (e)  A license that has been forfeited for one renewal term shall be automatically terminated and cannot be restored, and a new application for licensure shall be required.
