3.Membership shall also terminate if the General Assembly, by a two thirds majority vote, resolves that it is in the best interests of the ESS ERIC to terminate such membership following:

Article 4(1)(c)(i) for two consecutive Biennial Periods; or
Article 4(1)(c)(ii) for 2 consecutive financial years of the ESS ERIC; or

The Member or Observer shall be given opportunity to contest the decision of termination and to present its defence to the General Assembly.
4.Notwithstanding Article 5(3), the General Assembly may also resolve, by simple majority vote, in the circumstances set out under Article 5(3), not to terminate a Member’s membership but to suspend or withdraw a Member’s voting right for such period of time and subject to such conditions as the General Assembly may reasonably decide. The General Assembly may reinstate, by simple majority vote, a Member’s voting right at any time if such Member has remedied to the satisfaction of the General Assembly any breach set out under Article 5(3).
