Museum with exit through gift shop

[gnarkill283]

Please see the attached image: https://ibb.co/HtQqxbT I'm wondering if this meets life safety requirements. Can the museum which has 82 occupants have an exit through the gift shop and does the gift shop count as one space with only 1 exit?

If all one business

Clear path of exit

Doors can’t be locked

Sure, see it all the time at the tourist traps

Not the best practice, can be blocked by falling products in a quake.

Remoteness on the 2 museum exits?

I posted it here first and then copied it to the other category thinking it would be seen more there - then I tried to delete this one but it appears you can't delete anything in this forum

Seems to me this would comply depending upon distance from each exit? Sprinklered or not? Can either occupancy be asperated by the locking of doors? Both uses have same hours of operation?
