The laws states prominent display at each entrance, not exit.
There are also very specific requirements for the size of the sign and the size of the lettering.
Defensible, IMO. I am not a lawyer, but I do see their commercials all the time on daytime TV.

When I live in SA, I noticed every bar I went to only had the sign posted BEHIND THE BAR, not at the entrance, as required by law. Always wondered what would happen legally, but that was back when there was no open carry, so it really didn't matter.
Regardless, bars really need to post it at the DOOR.
