B. The secretary of state may refuse to issue a certificate of registration if the secretary of state determines that the applicant has engaged in conduct that has a significant adverse effect on the applicant's fitness to act as an athlete agent. In making the determination, the secretary of state may consider whether the applicant has:
1. Been convicted of a crime that, if committed in this state, would be a crime involving moral turpitude or would be a felony.
2. Made a materially false, misleading, deceptive or fraudulent representation in the application or as an athlete agent.
3. Engaged in conduct that would disqualify the applicant from serving in a fiduciary capacity.
4. Engaged in conduct that is prohibited by section 15-1774.
5. Has had a registration or licensure as an athlete agent suspended, revoked or denied or has been refused renewal of registration or licensure as an athlete agent in any state.
6. Engaged in conduct that resulted in a sanction, suspension or declaration of ineligibility to participate being imposed on a student athlete or an educational institution in an interscholastic or an intercollegiate athletic event.
7. Engaged in conduct that significantly adversely reflects on the applicant's credibility, honesty or integrity.
C. In making a determination under subsection B of this section, the secretary of state shall consider all of the following:
1. The time between the conduct that occurred and the date of the application.
2. The nature of the conduct and the context in which the conduct occurred.
3. Any other relevant conduct of the applicant.
D. An athlete agent may apply to renew a registration by submitting an application for renewal in a form prescribed by the secretary of state. An application for renewal that is filed pursuant to this subsection is a public record under title 39. The application for renewal shall be signed by the applicant under penalty of perjury and must contain current information concerning all matters required in an original registration.
E. An individual who has submitted an application for renewal of registration or licensure in another state, in lieu of submitting an application for renewal in the form prescribed pursuant to subsection D of this section, may file a copy of the application for renewal and a valid certificate of registration or licensure from the other state. The secretary of state shall accept the application for renewal from the other state as an application for renewal in this state if the application to the other state meets all of the following requirements:
1. Was submitted in the other state within the six months immediately preceding the filing in this state and the applicant certifies the information contained in the application for renewal is current and correct.
2. Contains information that is substantially similar to or more comprehensive than that required in an application for renewal submitted in this state.
3. Was signed by the applicant under penalty of perjury.
