Also present were Dorothy A . Johnson, Executive Secretary, and Susan Cobb, who recorded. Introduction of Steering Committee and Officers Mr. Hudson introduced the Steering Committee (Trustees) of the Council of Michigan Foundations, noting that these persons were elected at previous annual conferences, or at special meetings of the Steering Committee, in compliance with the By-Laws of the Conference of Michigan Foundations. The officers, elected by the Steering Committee at its annual meeting in April, 1975, were introduced: Gilbert Hudson, Chairman; Howard D . Kalleward, Vice Chairman; Dorothy A. Johnson, Secretary; and Robert Risselade, Treasurer. Secretary's Report on Notice of Meeting and Representation Mrs. Johnson reported that seventy-seven notices of the annual meeting were sent to members, as of record January 23, (copy attached.) Thirty-two member organizations are represented at this meeting, constituting a quorum . Chairman's Report Mr . Hudson explained that the conferees at the 1974 Conference voted unanimously in favor of the Steering Committee's proposal that, when the Conference of Michigan Foundations attained 50 financial sponsors for two consecutive years, the organization would incorporate �as a 50 l (c) (3) organization as described in Section 509 (a) of the Code. This was reaffirmed at the 1975 Conference. At the 1 975 Conference, Leonard White , then Chairman of the Conference of Michigan Foundations , reported that there were 56 sponsors for the year just concluded , and that the Steering Committee had voted unanimously that Articles of Incorporation and By- Laws be structured for approval as soon as 50 sponsors were obtained in 1 975. Th is report was accepted by the members present. During 1975, Articles and By- Laws were developed with considerable input from legal advisors and Steering Committee members. These Artic l es and By- Laws were presented to the September 16th meeting of the Steering Committee , and were approved as amended. A. Articles of Incorporation Mr. Hudson stated that Leonard White , John Paynter and Gilbert Hudson were designated by the Steering Committee as Incorporators for purposes of filing Articles of Incorporation of the Council of Michigan Foundations as a Michigan non- profit corporation. The Steering Committee authorized Miles Jaffe on September 16 , 1975, to file the Articles in Lansing . The Articles were filed on November 2, 1 975 , and as of that date the Conference of Michigan Foundations formally became the COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS. Mr . Hudson asked for questions on the Articles . Some discussion as to problems of incorporation without a "President " were answered by Leonard White . He stated that the Chairman acts as a president, and that CMF Trustee and legal counsel, Miles Jaffe, suggested this provision did not need to be in the by - laws per se , but could be handled either by one or a succession of resolutions of the Board of Trustees . Mr . Hudson t h en ordered a copy of the Artic l es appended to the Minutes of this meeting for al l purposes . B . Approval of By- Laws Mr . Hudson reported that the By- Laws have been approved by the Steering Committee (Board of Trustees), and have been in use since the Commit t ee ' s meeting of September 16, 1975. The Committee believes the By- Laws are in compliance with all current regulations governing non-profit corporations. Questions from the f l oor were entertained. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried , it was RESOLVED that the By- Laws of the COUNCIL OF MIC HIGAN FOUNDATIONS be adopted in the form circulated at the meeting. Mr. Hudson then ordered a copy of the By- Laws appended to the Minutes of this meeting for all purposes. �C. 501(c)(3) and 509(a) Status Mr. Hudson stated that the Board of Trustees has applied for 501(c)(3) (tax-exempt) and 509(a) (not a private foundatio n ) status for the Council, and expects to know the results of that application by the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees. D. Closing Remarks Mr. Hudson stated that inasmuch as the Members have accepted the Articles of I n corporation and adopted the By-Laws, the conversion of the informal gathering of the Conference of Michigan Foundations to the Council of Uichigan Foundaions, a non-profit corporation organized under the laws of the State of Michigan, is now completed. Executive Secretary's Report Dorothy A. Johnson reported on the year's activities as administered by Sophia Gorham (February - August 1975) and Dorothy Johnson (September 1975- February 76). A. Membership The Council of Michigan Foundations now represnts 78.9% of the available foundation asset value in the State. Comparing the 1975-76 fiscal year to the 1974-75 year, private foundation memberhip has increased from forty to fifty-nine foundations, community foundations have increased from eight to eleven, and corporations and banks have remained the same at four each. B. Services to Members 1. Annual Conference 2. Three issues of The Michigan Scene newspaper were published and distributed to all Michigan foundations . 3.

Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED that the Treasurer's report as presented b~ accepted . Nominating Committee Report Mrs. Sally Miller, Chairman of the Nominating Committee, reported that at the annual meetings in 1973, 1975, and 1975, the full Steering Committee was elected, one-third each year for 3-year terms. Seven of the Steering Committee members' terms have expired with this meeting, and the Nominating Committee, as part of the election procedure, had agreed on the names of candidates to fill the vacancies. Seventy-seven ballots were mailed to members on Nov. 11, 1975. Mr . Hudson announced that thirty-eight ballots were returned, unanimously electing William W. Allen, Thomas Herbert, Howard D. Kalleward, Robert L . Miller, John Paynter, Margaret Ann Riecker, and William S. White as Trustees of the Council of Michigan Foundations for a three-year term ending in 1979.

White and Dorothy A . Johnson Re: Conference Registration Policies for Discussion October 13. CANCELLATIONS No refunds should be made for cancellations after a pre-determined pre- confe rence cut-off date t o be set each year by the Conference Planni ng Committee . If a registration is cancelled before that da te , write a l etter to the c ancelling r eg istra nt stating that a refund check wi l l be s ent shortly by the Executive Director. SHARED REGISTRATION There will be no s ha red registrations; i . e. , use of one registra tion by one or more parties of the same or different foundations , will not be permitted . PARTIAL REGISTRATION Full registrations are to be encouraged . Partial reg ist rat ion will be allowed, but the fee basis should be to the advantage of the full registrant. For example: Tota l registration Member $60 . 00 Non- member 75.00 Partial regis t ration (one meal included at each per iod) $25 . 00 Wednesday evenin g Thursday morning 20 . 00 25.00 Thursday afternoon 25.00 Thursday evening Friday morning 20.00 GUEST MEALS A fee schedule for guest meals should be developed for use at the Conference i n charging me als f or guests . It is not uncommon for a registrant to a sk , at the Conference , or in prior correspondence, for a guest meal ticket for a spouse or assoc iate . Care must be taken not to abuse this policy, in order to avoid the partial registration fee.

Mr. Hudson explained that the minutes of the April 29, 1976 Annual Board of Trustees meeting had been approved as circulated with the exception of item 8.4 under Review of CMF Staff . This item had been referred to the Executive Committee for resolution as a non-profit organization has the option of paying social security . The Executive Committee, after consulting with the present staff, voted to offer no benefits, including social security. Robert Risselade, Treasurer, reported that the request to the IRS for a refund on the social security payments previously paid by CMF and its employees had been filed and no answer had been received to date. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED: That the minutes of the April 29 , 1976 Board of Trustees meeting be approved with the following two amendments. 1. Item B. 4 under Review of CMF Staff read no benefitsmedical, retirement, vacations, holidays and FICA. 2. The resolution at the bottom of page 2 read: "That no retirement plan for the Executive Director will be funded by the Council of Michigan Foundations, �- 2 - it being understood , therefore, that the Executive Director will establish and maintain from her own funds an individual retirement account . " The minutes of the October 13, 1976 meeting were approved as circulated.

William Allen, Chairman, reported that in order to further enhance the public information effort , the committee recommends three ways in which member foundations could be more helpful to CMF : by printing annual reports , by issuing news releases and by reporting grants to the Foundation Center. Upon motion duly made , supported and unanimously carried , it was RESOLVED that assistance from Michigan foundations be elicited at the Members Meeting in the areas of printing annual reports , issuing news releases and reporting grants to Foundation Center. It was further stated th~ the assistance in preparing annual report that will come from the CMF office should be made on an individual basis and not for groups such as bank trusts . Herman Gertz raised the question of rates for this service and it was decided to leave the mechanics of the rate schedule up to the Executive Director. Information Systems Committee Leonard White , Chairman, stated that the Grand Rapids Foundation had given a grant to the Grand Rapids Library for additional foundation related materials . �- 3 - A beginning foundation grantsmanship seminar is to be held June 9, 1977, and sponsored by CMF, the Grand Rapids Public Library Foundation Center Regional Collection, and the Michigan League for Human Services . This program will hopefully be expanded to the Detroit area in the fall. Mr. White is meeting with the Foundation Center in New York in March to discuss planning for the second edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory.

Driggers Re: LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITY BY CMF June 22, 1977 This memorandum will. ,set forth my opinion on the principal targets for legislat·i ve correction and the action that CMF should take to achieve the ~egislative goals.· Specifically, the memor- randum wi"l l." discuss: · J:. The primary legislative goals 'to be achieved. IX. The legal restrictions which affect CMF's efforts to achieve legislative . goals. III. The legal restrictions which affect private .foundations in their efforts to achieve legislative goals. IV. Recommended procedures to be followed by CMF in effecting legislative goals • . I. PRIMARY LEGISLATIVE GOALS TO BE ACHIEVED There are three areas of legislation which, I feel, should be the first targets of legislative action, l. Under present law, the amount deductible by an indivi- dual taxpayer for contributions to private foundations cannot exceed 20% of his contribution base, which, in most cases, is adjusted gross income. ·hi~ This rule is set forth. in IRC §170 (b) (1) (B). For example, under existing law, a taxpayer with an adjusted gross income of $1~0,000 can deduct $50,000 for gifts to public charities, but he cannot deduct more than $20,000 for gifts to private foUndations. I see no reason why the private foundation · should be �June 22, 1977 -2- regarded as a less worthy charity than a public charity . think private foundations should be treated in the same way as public charities for purposes of the contribution limitation. Accordingly, I recommend the deletion of $170(b) (B) from the Internal Revenue Code . 2. Under present law, the amount deductible for gifts of appreciated long-term capital assets is, in the case of a private foundation, reduced by one-half of the amount of the appreciation. This rule is set forth in #170 Revenue Code. (e) ( l) (B) of the Internal For example, if a taxpayer has stock which he has held for nine months or longer and which cost him $100 but which now has a value of $1,000, he may give that stock to a public charity and take a deduction on his tax return of $1,000. How- ever , if he gives that stock to a private fou ndation, his deduction is only $550 , i . e. , $1,000 less one-half of the appreciation. Again, I see no reason why private foundations should be treated precisely the same way as public charity . 3. The pay - out requirement of 5% should be reduced to a smaller figure , e.g. , 3% or 3.5% . The figure might even be tied to the averalge yield on the Dow Jones stocks. Any number of vari- ations is poasiblo with roapoot to th o po l:co ntnqo which uhoulU IJ,, employed--in filet, ono might even prefer to simply doloto tho per centage completely. It is my impression that the 5% rate is too high for most foundations and that the rate should be lowered. �June 22 , - 3- 19 77 The existing foundation can grow i n only one of two ways: (a} appreciation of its present assets -- an achievement which is difficult to accomplish in view of the 5% pay-out requirement: or (b) contributions to its 'assets . Accomplishment of these three legislative goals would benefit existing foundations by reducing the pay-out requirement and encouraging contributions to them and it would also generate the creation of new foundations. Many existing foundations were started with gifts of stock of closely-held corporations, a device which is now almost non-existent because of IRC §l70(e) (1) (B) and repeal of this law, coupled with the new carry-over basis rule (under which stock retains the same basis for income tax purposes after death as i t had before death) , would stimulate the creation and e n largement or private foundations . The owner of closely-held stock would then be able t o take a full tax deduction for transfers of that stock to his founda t ion and such transfer would (a) reduce his current i n come tax , (b) redu ce his estate tax, and (c) eliminate the income tax on the appreciation on the stock after December 31, 19 76 which tax would otherwise be paid by his heirs. Ao wo nll k now, tho cro a tion o r. n o w f ouncll'\t i o nu io n l mou t non-existent now, and unle s s we are to be the la s t o f a vani s h ing breed , there must be legislative changes which will stimulate t h e 4.

(1) Articles of Incorporation ARTICLE VIII (c) 6£ the Articles of Incorporation of the Council of Michigan Foundations provides as follows: "(c) No substantial part of the activities of the Corporation shall consist of carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting to influence legislation; nor shall i t in any manner or to any extent participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any poli tical campaign on behalf of any candidate for public office; nor shall the Corporation engage in any activities that are unlawful under applicable federal, state , or local laws." If CMF were to attempt to influence legislation, it would be necessary to amend ARTICLE ~II(c) . An amendment of the Articles of Incorporation can only be accomp l ished at a meeting of the members, which can be at the annual meeting or at a special meeting called for that purpose . Whatever is to be done should be decided between now and the 1978· Annual Meeting so that that meeting can be u sed for the purpose of the approving of the amendment -- and whatever else is to be approved . {2) Internal Revenue Code CMF is a §50l(c) (3) organization . " (3) §50l(c) (3) provides: Corporations , and any community chest , fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious , charitable , scientific, testing for public safety, literary , or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur �-5- uune 2J. , lYi / sports competition (but only if nd- part of its activities involve the provision of athletic faci li ties or equipment), or for the prevention · of cruelty to children or animals, no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual, no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on of pro?aganda, or otherwise attempting to influence legislation (except as oth e n~ise provided in subsection (h)), and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing o= distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of any candidate for public office . " (The reference to (h) should be (i)) CMF could make an election under §SOl(i) which would permit i t to engage in lobbying activities within certain limits and still retain its status as a §SOl(c) (3) public charity. If the election under §50l(i) is not made , then there is very little · CMF c an do to achieve the legislative _goals. I am attaching to this memorandum a copy of §4911 which was passed as part of the Tax Reform Act of 1976 and which sets forth the pertinent definitions for §SOl(i). It is my rec ommendation that , after all preliminary matters are taken oare of (inoludinq the issuance of a favorable ruling as will be discussed below and the amendment of its Articles o f Incorporation), CMF make the required election under §50l(i). The effect of this election is to permit CMF to spend 20% of its annual budget for exempt purposes on lobbying activities, and only one- fourth (l/4th) of such 20% amount may be spent for "grass roots" expenditures , which means expenditures to attempt to influence legislation through an attempt to affect the opinions of the general public or any segment thereof. For its 1976-77 �,January 22 , 1977 -6 - fiscal year , CMF spent $25,786 , all of which presumably was for exempt purposes . The ~~ budget for 1977- 78 is $41,900. Under §§SOl(i) and 4911 , CMF could spend 16-2/3% of $41 , 900 for lobbying ac t ivities, or $6,983 , if it spends $34 , 9.17 on exempt purposes , and it could spend $1,745 of the $6 , 983 on "grass roots expendi- tures." But note these figures a r e based on the budget, not on actual r eceipts or expenditures . Actual lobbying expenditures must be based o n actual expenditures for exempt purposes. III • THE LEG.lU. RESTRICriONS WHICH AFFEcr PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS IN THEIR EFFORTS TO ACHIEVE LEGISLATIVE GOALS . Pr ivate foundations , who c omprise the majority of CMF's membership , are prohibited from paying any amounts to attempt to influence legislation within the meaning of §494S(e) , which provides as follows: "(e) AcriVITIES WITHIN SUBSEcriON (d) (1) - - For purposes of subsection (d) (1) , the term ' taxable expenditure' means any amount paid or incurred by a pr i vate foundation fo r - (1) any attempt to influence any legislation through an attempt to affect the opinion of the general public or any segment thereof, and (2) any attempt to influence legislation through communication with any member or employee of a legislative body , or with any other government official or employee who may participate in the formulation of the legislation {except technical advice or assistance provided to a governmental body or to a committee or other subdivision thereof in response to a written request by such body or subdivision , as the case may be) , other than through making available the results of ~on­ pa r tisan analysis , study , or research . Paragraph (2) of this subsection shall n ot apply to any amount paid or incurred in connec tion with an appearance before, or c o mmunica tion t o, a n y l egislati ve body with respect �June 22, 1977 -7- to a possible decision of such body which might affect the existence of the private foundation, its powers and duties, its tax-exempt status, or the deduction of contributions to such foundation." Although Regulation §53.4945-2(a) (5) provides that a grant by a private foundation to a p~lic charity does not constitute a taxable expenditure under §4945(e) if the grant is not "earmarked" for a legislative activity, the IRS may not apply that re~ulation in the case of the member foundationsof CMF , because it should be clear to the CMF member foundations that a portion of their grants to CMF would be used for legislative purposes since 85% of the grants or dues received by CMF are from private foundations. There is a pending ruling request submitted by Tom Troyer which might cover this point, but based upon my discussion with Tom, we should not assume the ruling will cover the CMF-type of situation. Accordingly, i t is my recommendation that if the ruling soon to be issued does not resolve this question, then a ruling should be obtained on this point by CMF and by at least one of its member foundations, and that efforts be made to cause a public ruling to be issued by the IRS on this point. The ruling that I suggest we obtain would also detail the legislative areas in which private foundations may engage. After all of the matters discussed above have been satisfactorily resolved, then I believe that CMF and its member foundationa should proceed with an aggressive campaign to seek favorable legislative action. Although some steps can be taken now, the more effective measures will have to wait until all of the �- 8matters above are resolved . June 22, 1977 Amo n g the activities which should be taken now are the following. 1. A recommendation from the Mandate Committee to the Program Committee that - (a) (b) Sen. Don Riegle be asked to be the keynote speaker at the 1978 conference, and Sally Miller's usual panel be placed on the program with one or more legislative aides and IRS officials from Washington on that panel. 2. Continuation and enlargement of all public information programs , for example, grantmanship seminars, directories, etc. 3. Circularizing CMF member foundations to determine if their irncome meets the 5% pay - out figure and , if not, how much the encroachment on pricipal is. 4. Exploring methods of determining the extent of the loss to private foundations resulting from the 20% limitation and the loss of one- half of appreciation rule for gifts to private foundations. Among the acticities which should be organized , promoted and systematized after CMF has made the election under #SOl(i) are these : 1. Press releases to be issued by each grantee of a foundation grant. 2. Communications by each grantee to be sent to the district's Congressman and the Michigan Senators about the grant received . 3. Communications from each foundation to the Congressman of the district where the grant was made and the two Michigan Senators about the grant . 4. Coordination with (but not subordination to) legislative efforts of other organications, such as Council on Foundations. This list is far from complete and members of the Mandate Committee will be able to make many additions to it .
