Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former reference to "operat[ing]" a
benefit performance is deleted as included in the reference to
"conduct[ing]" a benefit performance.
In subsection (b) of this section, the more common term "benefit" is
substituted for the former archaic term "inure" for clarity.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the phrase "be used for the purposes
of the qualified organization" is substituted for the former phrase "for the
promotion of, and to be used for, one or more of the objects hereinbefore set
forth" for clarity because the "objects" referenced in the former phrase are
no longer listed in the same section, but are referred to in § 13-1901 as a
part of the definition of a qualified organization.
Defined terms: "Benefit performance" § 13-1901
