THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MAY DENY ADMISSION TO MEMBERSHIP TO ANY APPLICANT THAT THE COMMITTEE REASONABLY BELEIVES TO HAVE INTERESTS THAT, ON THE WHOLE, ARE NOT SUBSTANTIALLY ALIGNED WITH THE INTERESTS OF THE TOURISM, HOSPITALITY, SPECIAL EVENTS, SPORTS, ENTERTAINMENT, AND OTHER RELATED INDUSTRIES IN THE PARISHES OF ORLEANS, JEFFERSON, ST.

UNLESS THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE EXPRESSLY PROVIDES OTHERWISE, SUSPENSION OR EXPULSION OF A MEMBER SHALL AUTOMATICALLY EFFECT THE SUSPENSION OR EXPULSION, AS THE CASE MAY BE, OF ALL THE MEMBER'S AFFILIATES. 1.6 REINSTATEMENT. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, IN ITS DISCRETION, MAY RE-ADMIT AN EXPELLED MEMBER AT ANY TIME EXCEPT THAT AN EXPELLED MEMBER AND ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE INELIGIBLE FOR RE-ADMISSION FOR A TWO YEAR PERIOD FOLLOWING EXPULSION IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES: (I) A MEMBER THAT HAS BEEN EXPELLED MORE THAN ONCE FOR NON-PAYMENT OF DUES OR ASSESSMENTS AND (II) A MEMBER THAT HAS BEEN EXPELLED FOR ANY REASON OTHER THAN NON-PAYMENT OF DUES. RE-ADMISSION SHALL BE BY APPLICATION ONLY AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY SECION 1.2. |
