1. INSTALLMENT PAYMENT PLAN (IPP)
may be issued to those applicants who have applied for and been accepted as
Proprietary or Non-Proprietary members, and have been permitted to pay for their
memberships over a period of time not to exceed three (3) years, rather than a
single lump sum. Regardless of the fact that the IPP member has applied for a
Proprietary membership, the member shall be deemed to be a Non-Proprietary
member until full payment for his membership has been made.
2. Currently, IPP is only available for
Regular and Regular Firm memberships with the initiation fee payable in
three (3) installments over a two-year period. Initial payment in the amount of
$5000.00 of the initiation fee is due with the application. Two annual payments
of $2500.00 are due on the membership activation anniversary date.
3. IPP members shall have the same rights and
privileges as members of the same class or type whose memberships are fully
paid, except that in no event shall an IPP member have the right to vote, hold
office, propose new members, or transfer the membership.
4. An IPP membership shall not have any right of
transfer until it has been fully paid.
5. Although there are no limitations as to the
number of allowable IPP memberships, the Board of Directors at its sole
discretion may at any time so limit the number of these memberships.
