(a) A professional athlete agent who is no longer certified by any professional sports association may amend the application to reflect the lack of national professional sports association certification(s) and convert the professional registration to a limited athlete agent registration. If such an amendment is filed, the limited registration would expire on the expiration date for the professional registration.
(b) If the registration of a professional athlete agent who is no longer certified by any professional sports association is not amended to be a limited athlete agent registration, the Secretary of State shall revoke the professional registration. The registration may be amended to be a limited athlete agent registration before or after notice of an opportunity for a hearing on the revocation.
(c) An agent whose professional athlete agent registration has been revoked under subsection (b) of this section may submit a new application for a professional athlete agent registration if the agent is recertified by the national professional sports association or if the agent obtains a certification from another national professional sports association.
