For purposes of determining whether, within a 12-month period, an AMC oversees an appraiser panel of more than 15 state-certified or state-licensed appraisers in a state or 25 or more state-certified or state-licensed appraisers in 2 or more states:
I. An appraiser is deemed part of the AMC’s appraiser panel as of the earliest date on which the AMC:

If an appraiser is removed from an AMC’s appraiser panel pursuant to paragraph II, but the AMC subsequently re-admits or engages the appraiser at any time during the 12 months after the AMC’s removal, the removal will be deemed not to have occurred, and the appraiser will be deemed to have been part of the AMC’s appraiser panel without interruption.
IV. The period for purposes of counting appraisers on an AMC’s appraiser panel may be the calendar year or a 12-month period established by law or rule of each state with which the AMC is required to register.
