105. (1)  Any employer who refuses or neglects to make and transmit any pay-roll, return or other statement required to be furnished by him under sections 88 and 108, or who refuses or neglects to pay any assessment or special or supplementary assessment, or the provisional amount of any assessment, or any instalment or part of such assessments, shall, in addition to any penalty and other liability to which he may be subject, pay to the Commission the full amount or capitalized value, as determined by it, of the benefits payable in respect of any accident to a worker in his employ which happens during the period of such default. The employer may be compelled to pay such amount in the same manner as the payment of an assessment may be enforced.

(3)  (Subsection repealed).
