2. That the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (the Board) shall review the circumstances relating to any wholesale license issued prior to July 1, 2000, to any manufacturer of alcoholic beverages to determine whether, in light of the provisions of (i) § 4.1-216 and (ii) any detrimental reliance by such wholesale licensee upon guidance received from the Board at the time of issuance of the wholesale license, it is appropriate to permit the continued existence of such wholesale license. Under no circumstances shall any such wholesale license be transferable. Nor shall the privileges of any such wholesale licensee remain in effect if the licensee undergoes any change of ownership or control, in whole or in part, after July 1, 2000.
