MEMBERSHIP

SECTION 1. The number and classification of members shall be fixed, together with such limitations, rules, regula­tions, and changes as may be made with respect thereto, by the Board of Directors, or as established by these Bylaws; provided, notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws to the contrary, there shall be two (2) major classes of membership, as established by the Articles of Incorporation of the Orchard Hills Country Club, being “A Class” shares, for equity owner members, comprising various golf membership classifications, and “B Class” shares, for participating members, comprising various non-golf membership classifications. Each of the two major classes of membership may contain such classifications with such rights and privileges as may be exercised by the members of each respective classification as determined by the Board of Directors from time to time. All memberships include spouses and all immediate family members within the family of the member. “Immediate family member” includes any unmarried, financially dependent child of the member or the member’s spouse, up to and including age 26 years, whose permanent residence is with the member and member’s spouse, or who is a full time student at a college or university who is enrolled in not less than 12 credit hours per term; but is otherwise any child of a member until the end of the membership year in which the child graduates from high school, or attains age 19 years, whichever later occurs. A qualifying student shall provide reasonable proof of student status as requested from time to time by the Board of Directors and failure to provide such proof shall result in disqualification from membership privileges. With respect to spouses and unmarried dependent children, participation in certain activities may be curtailed or circumscribed by specific committee rules.

SECTION 2 — MEMBERSHIP, DUES AND ASSESSMENTS. All member­ship classifications are for a full calendar year, January through December and renew from year to year unless an effective resignation is tendered as provided in Section 13, below. If a member resigns his or her membership before the end of the calendar year, that member is responsible for the balance of their dues, the balance of any monthly minimum charges in the clubhouse, the balance of any capital assessments that are due for the remainder of the year, and any other applicable fees that may be in effect for the particular membership year, and all charges incurred by the Member, their family, and their Guests.

Section 2.1 — Special Situations. If at any time during a calendar year, a married couple is legally divorced or a judgment of separate maintenance is entered, the options are: (1) If only one of the two spouses remain at the Club, and if the remaining spouse is the “A Class” or “B Class” stockholder, nothing needs to be done; (2) If the remaining spouse is not the “A Class” or “B Class” stockholder, an application must be filled out immediately for the appropriate class and classification of membership and processed for review by the Board. All monies previously paid that membership year apply to that member’s account and the balance of that membership account and all monthly billings will be the responsibility of the spouse who continues on that account or who is the new member. (3) If both spouses wish to remain members of the Club, nothing needs to be done regarding the stockholder and monthly billings will continue for them. The other spouse must submit an application and apply for membership as a new member. If accepted, the new member will be invoiced separately for all obligations, along with all applicable discounts for a new member.

SECTION 3 – “A CLASS” SHARES – GOLF MEMBERS. The following classifications shall be A Class share equity owner members, and are otherwise known as golf memberships:

Senior membership shall consist of only those golf members who were Full golf members, Junior golf members, Senior golf members, or Non-Resident golf members in good standing in the membership year 2010, regardless of their age in 2010, and who continuously remain a golf member (regardless of subsequent classification but who must be an A Class shareholder) in good standing, and who has reached age 65 years on or before January 1 of any given year of membership, and who pays the full dues, assessments, minimums and other fees attributable to and designated by the Board of Directors for Senior membership. Intervening membership as a Social, Social/Pool, Corporation or Student or other B Class participating member shall not constitute membership for the continuity required to retain or gain Senior membership status, but continuity may be maintained for such eligibility for those members otherwise qualifying under the terms of this Senior membership provision by a Leave of Absence under Section 14 below. Qualified members may elect this classification by applying in writing to the Board of Directors. Senior members shall have all rights and privileges attendant to Full membership.

Any other individual who was not a member in good standing in 2010 under the terms here provided shall not be eligible for this Senior membership status. Any other members over age 65 years shall be members under the other classes and classifications available under these By-laws.

Unless he or she first resigns, Non-resident status will automatically terminate upon the member taking up residence within said practical 50 miles for a continuous period of 14 days or more. Individuals who have a second residence which is not their legal residence or domicile within 50 practical miles of the Club (such as, for example, a summer cottage or vacation home), may qualify for Non-resident membership status so long as their principal legal residence or domicile is 50 practical miles or more from the Club. The location of the principal place of employment of the Non-resident member or member’s spouse shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the location of the member’s principal legal residence or domicile, in comparison with any second home.

At such time as a Non-resident member’s status fails to qualify within these requirements, the Non-resident membership status shall automatically convert to the appropriate resident status of member, with such member being obligated to pay the difference in dues, initiation fees, minimums, assessments, and other fees accruing from the date of conversion. Non-resident members shall have all rights and privileges attendant to Full membership. Non-resident member initiation fees, annual dues, deposits, monthly dues, assessments, special assessments, minimums and any other fees may differ from those of Full membership and other classifications of membership, and shall be set by the Board of Directors from year to year.

Honorary members shall not be obligated for dues, assessments or mini­mum spending, but shall be obligated for all charges incurred by them, their family, and their Guests in connection with the exercise of membership privileges. Honorary membership shall not be bestowed unless that person or his or her spouse has been a former Member for a period of twenty-five (25) years or more, and has attained the age of sixty-five (65) years.
