CHAPTER II — FULL AND AFFILIATE MEMBERS

Article 5 – Criteria for full and affiliate membership, categories of Members and rights and obligations of full and affiliate Members

Membership of the Association is open to those national political foundations, associations and think tanks that promote liberal, democrat and reform ideals and values and accept these Articles of Association, the Internal Regulations of the Association, the policy programmes of the Association and adhere to the Stuttgart Declaration of the ALDE Party, aisbl. As an exception to the foregoing, full membership is automatically granted to the President of the ALDE Party, aisbl, and the signers of the founding act.

The Association has full and affiliate Members, which are natural persons or legal entities lawfully established in accordance with the laws and customs of their country of origin. The Association shall be composed of at least seven full Members.

Full Members have to be based in the European Union, in an EU candidate country or in an EEA Member State. Affiliate members can be based in EU neighbourhood countries.

New applicants shall first be admitted as affiliate Members and shall, as such, be subject to pay half the minimum full membership fee. They have the right to take part in the meetings of the General Assembly and to voice their opinion. They do not have the right to vote. Affiliate Members can apply for full Membership after having actively participated in a minimum of three European Liberal Forum events, or decide to remain Affiliate Members.

If a candidate member does not dispose of a legal status in accordance with the laws and the customs of its country of origin, it shall, in its written application for membership, appoint a natural person, who will act on behalf and for the account of all the members of such candidate member, in his/her capacity of common proxyholder.

Full Members shall pay a membership fee. The minimum fee shall be 500 EUR corresponding to one delegate, the fee of 2 500 EUR for three delegates and a fee of 5 000 EUR for five delegates, with the exception of the President of the ALDE Party, aisbl, and the signers of the founding act. The General Assembly shall determine the fee, which shall be no less than 500 EUR and shall not exceed 5 000 EUR.

Full Members shall have the right to participate in the General Assembly, to express their opinions and to vote, on the condition that their voting right is not suspended due to an unpaid membership fee. The membership fee is due at the latest one month after invoicing; after that point in time, the right to vote is suspended until all payments due are received.

Article 6 – Register of full and affiliate Members

A register containing an up-to-date list of all full and affiliate Members of the Association will be held at the registered office.

All full and affiliate Members may have access to the register at the registered office of the Association.

Article 7 – Admission of full and affiliate Members

Foundations, associations and think tanks can apply for membership if they are proposed by two other Members of the Association.

Any application for full or affiliate membership shall be sent to the Board of Directors with all necessary documentation evidencing that the applicant fulfils the membership requirements. This application should include a position paper outlining the prospective affiliate member organisation’s relationship to liberalism. The Board of Directors shall submit the application, its preliminary report and its opinion to the General Assembly, which will examine whether or not the application meets the affiliate or full membership requirements. The General Assembly shall take its decision with a majority of two-thirds of the votes cast. The decision of the General Assembly to admit the applicant shall be final and the General Assembly shall be under no obligation to justify its decision.

Article 8 – Resignation and expulsion of full or affiliate Members

Any full or affiliate Member may resign from the Association at any time by giving three months’ notice by registered letter addressed to the President. The resignation shall only come into force at the end of the financial year.

A resigning full or affiliate Member will remain liable for its financial obligations vis-à-vis the Association until the end of the financial year during which its resignation took place.

If a full or affiliate Member fails to meet its financial obligations, a notice is sent by the Treasurer requesting to settle its debts, and mentioning that the voting right of the full member is suspended until full payment is received.

If a full or affiliate Member fails to meet its financial obligations for two consecutive financial years, it will be considered as having resigned from the first day of the following financial year.

Any full or affiliate Member may be expelled for any of the following reasons:

| i. | not abiding by the Articles of Association or the Internal Regulations; |
