(3)Except as provided in subregulation (4), the association must pay the fee before the end of the first quarter of the scheme year.
(4)If, after the occupational association pays the fee —
(a)the scheme becomes applicable to an additional member of the association; and
(b)the fee calculated under subregulation (2)(a) is greater than $2 500 when the additional member is included in the calculation,
