1. (a) For the purposes of AS 04.11.540, if a license expires because an applicant fails to file a complete application for renewal or fails to pay the required renewal fees and penalty fees by February 28, the board will consider a written request to reinstate the license. A request to reinstate a license must include

   1. (1) the complete renewal application;
   2. (2) a license reinstatement fee of $1,000;
   3. (3) all other required fees and penalty fees; and
   4. (4) proof of good cause for the applicant's failure to file the renewal application by February 28.

2. (b) The board will deny a request for reinstatement of a license submitted under (a) of this section if

   1. (1) the license became available in accordance with 3 AAC 305.040 and the license was issued to a different applicant, unless the limit of licenses under AS 04.11.400 has not been reached; or

   2. (2) the board finds that the applicant's failure to timely file or pay was caused by

      1. (A) the applicant's failure to notify the board of a change of the applicant's electronic mail address;
      2. (B) a transfer of ownership of the business for which the license was issued without written approval of the board in violation of AS 04.11.040;
      3. (C) a lease of the licensed business to another person in violation of AS 04.11.450(c); or
      4. (D) any other action of the applicant, whether active or tacit, that the board finds constitutes a failure to lawfully operate the business for which the license was issued.
