With the recent emergence of the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA), our program activity in volunteerism has decreased substantially as CMA has begun to take on those initiatives. Because all of our funds revolve around volunteerism, the MNA Board of Trustees has discussed changing the beneficiary from our organization to the ConnectMichigan Alliance. On December 17, 2002, the Michigan Nonprofit Association Board of Trustees unanimously approved to transfer the beneficiary of the George W. Romney Fund for Volunteerism in Michigan (including the MNA-Michigan Campus Compact Fund) and the Russell G. Mawby Fund for Youth Service and Volunteerism from the Michigan Nonprofit Association to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign with the following provisions: 1. If the ConnectMichigan Alliance were dissolved, the funds beneficiary would be returned to the Michigan Nonprofit Association. 2. As the proceeds of the two funds are utilized by ConnectMichigan Alliance, appropriate recognition will be provided to Michigan Nonprofit Association. 3. Both Funds would remain under their current names and the documents that outline their use will be fully honored.

Corporate Headquarters Comerica Tower at Detroit Center 500 Woodward Avenue, M/C 3391 Detroit, Michigan 48226 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Exec. Dir. MCSC I. PURPOSE Brief Mr. Miller on the ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign and seek his advice and assistance in forming a Banking strategy as part of the corporate component of the campaign. Also, seek his advice on securing a $500,000 dollar commitment from Comerica and $250,000 from McGregor Fund (Mr. Miller sits on the board for the McGregor Fund). II. BACKGROUND The ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign has a goal of $20 million for a statewide endowment to permanently provide support for Michigan's volunteers. The State of Michigan has offered a $10 million in the form of a challenge grant (until Nov. of 2002) toward which $2 million has been secured. The Campaign has a three-pronged strategy: Foundations—statewide the CMA is seeking $4.5-6.5 million Corporations—statewide the CMA is seeking $2.5-4 million Individuals—statewide the CMA is seeking $1.5-3 million We need to develop a strategy for the banking industry and help ramping up the foundation world. What we specifically need from Mr. Miller is his insights into the banking and financial service industry and how they might be approached. The Corporate/Banking Strategy is targeting mostly those organizations with which we have existing relationships or that we know fund volunteerism. Currently, we are making rounds to the Big Three Automakers and DTE, but we would like also to make inroads into BankOne, Compuware and the auto suppliers. The Foundation Strategy has been formed which seeks six million and we have secured $2 million (W.K. Kellogg and C.S. Mott Foundations) toward that goal with two of three leader organizations secured. Only Kresge is remaining and will be approached at the $1 million level. �The Individuals Strategy is developing and will include prominent Southeastern Michigan residents. This is the final component of the campaign to be developed. Other Information—Peter Cummings, Max Fisher, and other friends to the field sit on the board of directors for Comerica and therefore should be mentioned as friends as well as prospects (see list attached). m. PARTICIPANTS Michelle Engler, First Lady of Michigan Gene Miller, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Comerica Incorporated and Comerica Bank Julie F. Cummings, Lovelight Foundation Geneva Jones Williams, United Way Community Services Tom Monaghan, Monaghan Associates, Inc. (unconfirmed) Kyle Caldwell, Michigan Community Service Commission (staff) IV. PRESS PLAN N/A V. REMARKS N/A VI. EVENT SCENARIO Mrs. Engler will introduce the participants and the general concept for the ConnectMichigan Alliance (i.e. that several statewide organizations are forming an endowment for volunteerism to provide support and coordination in perpetuity). After the general concept is introduced, Mrs. Engler will ask Mr. Caldwell and Mr. Monaghan to explain the scope and progress of the campaign and then Ms. Cummings and Ms. Williams will explain how this campaign helps connect corporate philanthropy with community support through this endowment (i.e. this will provide support to the places where employees give their time talent and resources) and how Detroit will be a major focus of the resources and policy of the ConnectMichigan Alliance Board (important to emphasize that Virgil Carr is joining the board and that he and United Way Community Services are supportive of the CMA). Mrs. Engler will then ask Mr. Miller's advice on approaching the Comerica for a $500,000 gift AND strategies for approaching BankOne and the McGregor Fund. Mr. Caldwell will leave behind the ConnectMichigan Campaign brochure and have other materials ready just in case. In preparation for any questions, an impact brief is attached that quickly explains potential impact once the fund goal is reached. �CM A Impact on MMgm Summary The ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign ensures the strength and stability of support for Michigan's volunteers. Through a $20 million endowment, the combined forces of the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC), Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSQ, Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and the Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) permanently sustains and expands the "volunteer infrastructure" for which Michigan is known and heralded. All of the partners of this initiative have developed innovative approaches to working effectively on a statewide level with varied constituencies and serve as national models of best practices. Once the campaign is completed, the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) begins to achieve its goal of providing avenues for every Michigan citizen to serve their community through volunteer service and civic action. This goal is met by: • • • • Providing access to a strong and healthy Volunteer Center for every Michigan resident; Having every Michigan college and university encourage citizen service & learning among its students, faculty and staff; Building strong nonprofits to meet our communities' most pressing social, charitable, economic, cultural, educational, faith-based, and civic needs; and Maximizing state and federal government resources to empower communities to address their local challenges. In creating CMA, the four founding partners, MCC MCSQ MNA and VCM, have created a synergistic application of their services that results in a seamless delivery of support services and programs to volunteer and service-learning initiatives throughout the state. While MNA and MCSC will remain separate entities, they will share a central location with CMA, which will reduce administrative expenses and duplication of services. This arrangement, which is modeled after successful reorganization strategies in the private-for-profit sector, enhances technological capacity and customer service models of the partners. CMA is a statewide initiative. The state of Michigan provided a $10 million challenge grant ($1: $1) toward this initiative. The C. S. Mott Foundation and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation each responded to the challenge with lead gifts of $1 million. The remaining $8 million will be developed over the next twelve months through multiple-year pledges and one-time gifts. �What will be the impact? Challenge: Currently, many Michigan citizens are unable to access a volunteer center— places where our individuals and organizations work to match volunteer opportunities with the right individual. Only 54 Michigan counties are currently served by a Volunteer Center. CMA Goal: Increase Access to Volunteer/Civic Engagement Initiatives through Volunteer Centers for All Michigan Citizens Method: Bolster the forces of the Volunteer Centers of Michigan through increased membership, outreach services and site development activities in a substantially different way than could be supported by a dues only supported organization. Impact: All of Michigan's 83 counties will be served by a local Volunteer Center and thereby providing universal access for every Michigan citizen to serve. Challenge: Volunteer Centers have limited access to fund advancement professionals. Goal: Increase Long-term Financial Capacity of Local Volunteer Centers Method: Provide training and technical assistance to Volunteer Centers and their boards in the areas of nonprofit best practices, fundraising, and board development. Impact: Local Volunteer Centers will become financially viable nonprofit organizations through the provision of technical assistance in the development of annual fund advancement plans, and enhanced efforts to build local endowments. Challenge: Accessibility to volunteer opportunities and support is limited by the strength and depth of leadership in a community. Often leadership involves the same pool of volunteers and leaders who either move on or "burn out," leaving the organization without strong and long term support. Goal: Increase Access to Professional Development Opportunities for Staff and Boards of Volunteer-based Nonprofits to Deepen the Leadership in a Community. Method: Support a regional network of training and technical assistance providers than can deliver high quality services at a reasonable cost to local volunteer-based organizations. Impact: Local organization will have a more skilled and dedicated volunteer base because of increased access to regional professional development workshops and seminars �Challenge: Nonprofits and volunteer-based organizations have been unable to stay ahead of emerging trends due to their inaccessibility to technical assistance and financial resources. Goal: Improve the Quality of Life in Every Michigan Community with Improved Nonprofits— the Engines of Civic Engagement in Local Communities Method: Provide grants, conferences and meeting opportunities to local nonprofits to strategically develop long-term solutions to community problems using service and volunteerism as strategies. Impact: Local organizations will have access to resources necessary to convene local partners in the development of market-specific programming that encourages youth volunteerism, family volunteerism, rural business volunteer councils, and urban corporate volunteer councils. Challenge: Citizenship, giving, civic engagement and an the ethic of giving back are not the indoctrinating principles our society's institutions and communities instill as they once did. New ways need to be found to instill these values. Goal: Increase the Capacity for Personal and Educational Success of Children and Adolescents Method: Highlight service-learning as a viable and valuable teaching methodology with students, teachers and parents through school partnerships, after-school programs, teacher in-services. Impact: Local Volunteer Centers will develop service-learning and civic engagement programming promoting participation of children in grades K-12. Challenge: Only thirty-five of the state's post-secondary educational institutions have demonstrated their commitment to promoting more civically engaged students, faculty and administrators by committing to the Michigan Campus Compact. Goal: Increase the Capacity for Success and Community Involvement of Young Adults Entering the Workforce. Method: Recruit more higher education chief executives to join the Campus Compact and provide increased services and resources to faculty and students. Impact: Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) will increase service learning and civic engagement programming to reach sixty-five post-secondary educational institutions. Challenge: A number of events, programs and activities are conducted around the state to promote volunteerism, but they are scattered and not universally supported in every Michigan community. Goal: Improve the Quality of Life in Communities Throughout Michigan while Demonstrating and Promoting the Power of Volunteerism. �Method: Develop a state calendar of national service days which are highlighted, promoted and coordinated throughout the ConnectMichigan Alliance. Impact: State level and local organizations will have increased capacity to engage all of Michigan's local communities in civic engagement programming that includes, but is not limited to, America's Promise, Make A Difference Day, National Volunteer Week, and Youth Service Day. Challenge: The tools and terms used to describe the effective means of volunteer community problem solving are not understood and therefore insufficiently supported. Goal: Increase Visibility of the Positive Impacts of Service-Learning, Qvic Engagement and Volunteerism Method: Devote human and financial resources toward improving promotional materials, media and access to media markets for ConnectMichigan Alliance and the field of nonprofits and volunteer-based organizations. Impact: State level and local organizations will have increased capacity to promote initiatives and recognize the impact of individuals and groups that participate in service-learning, civic engagement and volunteerism in communities throughout Michigan. �EUGENE A.

Through a $20 million endowment, the combined forces of the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC), Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC), Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and the Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) permanently sustains and expands the "volunteer infrastructure" for which Michigan is known and heralded. All of the partners of this initiative have developed innovative approaches to working effectively on a statewide level with varied constituencies and serve as national models of best practices. Once the campaign is completed, the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) begins to achieve its goal of providing avenues for every Michigan citizen to serve their community through volunteer service and civic action. This goal is met by: • • • • Providing access to a strong and healthy Volunteer Center for every Michigan resident; Having every Michigan college and university encourage citizen service & learning among its students, faculty and staff; Building strong nonprofits to meet our communities' most pressing social, charitable, economic, cultural, educational, faith-based, and civic needs; and Maximizing state and federal government resources to empower communities to address their local challenges. In creating CMA, the four founding partners, MCC, MCSC, MNA and VCM, have created a synergistic application of their services that results in a seamless delivery of support services and programs to volunteer and service-learning initiatives throughout the state. While MNA and MCSC will remain separate entities, they will share a central location with CMA, which will reduce administrative expenses and duplication of services. This arrangement, which is modeled after successful reorganization strategies in the private-for-profit sector, enhances technological capacity and customer service models of the partners. CMA is a statewide initiative. The state of Michigan provided a $10 million challenge grant ($1: $ 1) toward this initiative. The C. S. Mott Foundation and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation each responded to the challenge with lead gifts of $1 million. The remaining $8 million will be developed over the next twelve months through multiple-year pledges and one-time gifts. �What will be the impact? Challenge: Currently, many Michigan citizens are unable to access a volunteer center— places where our individuals and organizations work to match volunteer opportunities with the right individual. Only 54 Michigan counties are currently served by a Volunteer Center. CMA Goal: Increase Access to Volunteer/Civic Engagement Initiatives through Volunteer Centers for All Michigan Citizens Method: Bolster the forces of the Volunteer Centers of Michigan through increased membership, outreach services and site development activities in a substantially different way than could be supported by a dues only supported organization. Impact: All of Michigan's 83 counties will be served by a local Volunteer Center and thereby providing universal access for every Michigan citizen to serve. Challenge: Volunteer Centers have limited access to fund advancement professionals. Goal: Increase Long-term Financial Capacity of Local Volunteer Centers Method: Provide training and technical assistance to Volunteer Centers and their boards in the areas of nonprofit best practices, fundraismg, and board development. Impact: Local Volunteer Centers will become financially viable nonprofit organizations through the provision of technical assistance in the development of annual fund advancement plans, and enhanced efforts to build local endowments. Challenge: Accessibility to volunteer opportunities and support is limited by the strength and depth of leadership in a community. Often leadership involves the same pool of volunteers and leaders who either move on or "burn out," leaving the organization without strong and long term support. Goal: Increase Access to Professional Development Opportunities for Staff and Boards of Volunteer-based Nonprofits to Deepen the Leadership in a Community. Method: Support a regional network of training and technical assistance providers than can deliver high quality services at a reasonable cost to local volunteer-based organizations. Impact: Local organization will have a more skilled and dedicated volunteer base because of increased access to regional professional development workshops and seminars �Challenge: Nonprofits and volunteer-based organizations have been unable to stay ahead of emerging trends due to their inaccessibility to technical assistance and financial resources. Goal: Improve the Quality of Life in Every Michigan Community with Improved Nonprofits— the Engines of Civic Engagement in Local Communities Method: Provide grants, conferences and meeting opportunities to local nonprofits to strategically develop long-term solutions to community problems using service and volunteerism as strategies. Impact: Local organizations will have access to resources necessary to convene local partners in the development of market-specific programming that encourages youth volunteerism, family volunteerism, rural business volunteer councils, and urban corporate volunteer councils. Challenge: Citizenship, giving, civic engagement and an the ethic of giving back are not the indoctrinating principles our society's institutions and communities instill as they once did. New ways need to be found to instill these values. Goal: Increase the Capacity for Personal and Educational Success of Children and Adolescents Method: Highlight service-learning as a viable and valuable teaching methodology with students, teachers and parents through school partnerships, after-school programs, teacher in-services. Impact: Local Volunteer Centers will develop service-learning and civic engagement programming promoting participation of children in grades K-12. Challenge: Only thirty-five of the state's post-secondary educational institutions have demonstrated their commitment to promoting more civically engaged students, faculty and administrators by committing to the Michigan Campus Compact. Goal: Increase the Capacity for Success and Community Involvement of Young Adults Entering the Workforce. Method: Recruit more higher education chief executives to join the Campus Compact and provide increased services and resources to faculty and students. Impact: Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) will increase service learning and civic engagement programming to reach sixty-five post-secondary educational institutions. Challenge: A number of events, programs and activities are conducted around the state to promote volunteerism, but they are scattered and not universally supported in every Michigan community. Goal: Improve the Quality of Life in Communities Throughout Michigan while Demonstrating and Promoting the Power of Volunteerism. �Method: Develop a state calendar of national service days which are highlighted, promoted and coordinated throughout the ConnectMichigan Alliance. Impact: State level and local organizations will have increased capacity to engage all of Michigan's local communities in civic engagement programming that includes, but is not limited to, America's Promise, Make A Difference Day, National Volunteer Week, and Youth Service Day. Challenge: The tools and terms used to describe the effective means of volunteer community problem solving are not understood and therefore insufficiently supported. Goal: Increase Visibility of the Positive Impacts of Service-Learning, Civic Engagement and Volunteerism Method: Devote human and financial resources toward improving promotional materials, media and access to media markets for ConnectMichigan Alliance and the field of nonprofits and volunteer-based organizations. Impact: State level and local organizations will have increased capacity to promote initiatives and recognize the impact of individuals and groups that participate in service-learning, civic engagement and volunteerism in communities throughout Michigan. �About Comerica: Board of Directors Comerica Incorporated Board of Directors Lillian Bauder, Ph.D Vice President Corporate Affairs Masco Corp.

The CRCF currently invests its permanently endowed dollars with three area bank trust departments: Comerica, National City, and Michigan National (Standard Federal). Of particular interest should be a CRCF policy which reads: Terry I'ruilt J u d i t h Ann Kapanos I'alrieia ReynoldAnne Rosewarne k a t h r y u Ros-ow "It is the intent of the Trustees that funds donated to the Foundation, currently in trust with a financial institution, shall remain at that institution." Peter Secrhia Diana Sicirer J ud\\u ic/ While the funds we will be soliciting are (for the most part) not in trust, the spirit behind this policy was to "not hurt" financial institutions by transferring funds to the community foundation. Therefore, when we are dealing with a financial institution that is considering a "significant" gift, donors may donate knowing that they need not "lose" the management of the funds. This, by law, may not be a permanent guarantee of course, as CRCF's Board of Trustees has ultimate control over any and all invested dollars and must carry out their fiduciary responsibility.

Nohinlei'i- Center-, of Michigan �THE CAPITAL REGION COMMUNITY FOUNDATION INVESTMENT POLICY STATEMENT AND SPENDING GUIDELINES PURPOSE The Capital Region Community Foundation (hereinafter, "Foundation") has been organized as a vehicle for flexible charitable giving, with the principal objective of accepting donations to establish permanent endowment funds. Following the spending policy detailed later, dollars are made available for current and future community needs. These assets are to be invested in a manner consistent with statutory fiduciary responsibilities. The purpose of this Investment Policy Statement is to establish a clear understanding of the philosophy and the investment objectives for The Foundation. This document will further describe the standards that will be utilized by the Finance Committee in monitoring investment performance, as well as, serve as a guideline for any investment manager retained. SCOPE This Investment Policy Statement applies only to those assets for which the investment manager and the Finance Committee have discretionary authority. FINANCE COMMITTEE The Finance Committee is responsible for recommending investment policies and strategies, trustees, investment managers and/or advisors, and other fiduciaries, and monitoring the performance of the trustees, managers, advisors and other fiduciaries. IMPLEMENTATION OF INVESTMENT POLICIES The investment policies of the Foundation will be carried out by means of investment strategies that reflect continuous evaluation of changing investment environments, judgment regarding the allocation of The Foundation's assets among different kinds of investment opportunities, identification of appropriate investment vehicles, and the making of specific investment decisions. STANDARD OF INVESTMENT JUDGMENT In seeking to attain the investment objectives set forth in this statement, the Finance Committee shall exercise prudence and appropriate care. SPENDING POLICY Spending Rate for Distribution A recent study conducted by DeMarche Associates for the Council on Foundations illustrated the impact of different spending policies over time on the assets of a foundation. The study compared �the performance of three hypothetical foundations with different payout percentages (5%, 6%, covering the period from 1950 - 1994. Each foundation starts with a million dollars and has the identical portfolio that is typical of foundations. The findings showed that by the end of 1994, the charitable payout of the 5% foundation would be 27.4% more than the 6% foundation and 67.2% more than the 7% foundation. The 5% payout foundation had increased its assets thereby preserving its purchasing power and had paid out more in grants than the other two foundations who had paid less in grants and significantly reduced its purchasing power. Asset Base Calculation The amount to be spent in the coming year is calculated each December 31st or the month preceding the end of the agency's fiscal year. This is reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee annually. The calculation is as follows: a. b. A 12 quarter rolling average of the market value is determined. The amount to be spent will be 5% of the market value calculated in "a" above. Income available for spending is determined by a total return system. The "income" that may be spent, as determined in this paragraph, may be drawn from both ordinary income earned (i.e., dividends, interest, rents, royalties, etc.) and appreciation, both earned and unearned. All income and appreciation not needed to meet spending needs is credited directly to the Foundation and invested in the investment pools. Spending Guideline Resolution Be it resolved that beginning January 1,1998 the spending rate for permanent component funds held by the Foundation will be equal to 5% of the average quarterly market value over the preceding 12 quarters. Dollars available for granting shall be equal to the 5% spending rate minus Foundation fees and direct expenses. For practical reasons, this spending rate will not apply to funds which are considered nonpermanent or other short-term funds or funds which hold closely-held securities or other investments which cannot be pooled for investment purposes. Short-term gifts will be distributed according to the provisions of their respective gift instruments. For funds which hold closely-held securities and other income generating investments which cannot be pooled, the actual income generated will be made available as the spending amount. Funds which hold non-incomegenerating assets (life insurance policies, etc.) will continue to hold those assets intact; these assets will not generate a spending amount until they are mature or are converted into marketable securities. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES & PHILOSOPHY A. The primary objective of the permanent investments will be to provide for long-term growth of principal and income without undue exposure to risk to enable the Foundation to make grants on a continuing and reasonably consistent basis. B. Therefore, the focus will be on consistent long-term capital appreciation, with income generation as a secondary consideration. C. More specifically, the Finance Committee seeks returns during a full market cycle that are large enough to preserve and enhance the real, inflation adjusted purchasing power of the Foundation's assets, while also considering the current spending requirements. D. In pursuing this objective, the Finance Committee endeavors to achieve total returns that, over time, are better than the relevant market averages. �E. The Finance Committee does not expect that in each and every year the investment objective referred to above will necessarily be achieved. TIME HORIZON To allow for the normal ups and downs of the market in the short term, it is intended that the following Specific Performance objectives will be achieved by the investment manager(s) over a 5-year moving period, net of investment management fees. Nevertheless, the Finance Committee reserves the right to evaluate and make any necessary changes regarding the investment manager over a shorter term using the criteria established in the "Evaluation of Investment Manager" section of this statement. ASSET ALLOCATION OF PERMANENT FUNDS Deliberate management of the asset mix among classes of investments available to the Foundation is both a necessary and desirable responsibility. In the allocation of assets, diversification of investments among asset classes that are not similarly affected by economic, political, or social developments is a highly desirable objective. The diversification does not necessarily depend upon the number of industries or companies in a portfolio or their particular location, but rather upon the broad nature of such investments and of the factors that may influence them. In making asset allocation judgments, the Finance Committee is not expected to seek to "time" subtle changes in financial markets, or that frequent or minor adjustments would be needed. Instead, the Finance Committee is expected to develop and adopt expressed guidelines for broad allocations on a long-term basis, in light of current and projected investment environments. To insure broad diversification in the long-term investment portfolios among the major categories of investments, asset allocation, as a percent of the total market value of the total long-term portfolio, will be set with the following target percentage and within the following ranges: Total Foundation Tvpe of Securities Equities Domestic Large Cap Domestic Small Cap International Fixed Income Cash Equity Manager Fixed Income Manager Target Range Range Range 45% 10% 40-60% 5-15% 90-100% 90-100% 0% 0% 10% 5-15% 90-100% 0% 35% 20-40% 0% - - 90-100% 0-10% 0-10% The Foundation seeks to achieve an equal balance between value and growth equities. �INVESTMENT STRATEGIES A. Permanent Funds: The permanent funds of the Foundation shall be invested under a master custodian relationship with one or more financial institutions. The emphasis shall be on longterm growth without undue exposure to risk. Consideration in selecting and retaining a manager of permanent funds will encompass success in meeting expected rate of return, service capacity and fees charged for investment services provided. B. Non-Permanent Funds and Temporary Cash Investments: Investment of non-permanent and temporary cash (including grants payable) funds shall reflect the need for the preservation of capital and liquidity, with a secondary emphasis upon maximization of investment income without undue exposure to risk. Investment guideline considerations shall therefore include but not be limited to investing in U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, and Corporate Bonds (single A credit or better), tied to the 90-day Treasury Bill benchmark. These funds should maintain an average weighted maturity between one day and one year, and an average credit quality of AAA. The maturity of an individual security shall not exceed one year. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES Total Foundation - Permanent Funds 1. The total return shall exceed the Consumer Price Index plus 5% (5% premium reflects the average spending policy). 2. The total return shall exceed a target Balanced Index composed of: 45% of the S&P 500 Index (Domestic Large Cap Equity), 10% of the Russell 2000 Index (Domestic Small Cap Equity), 10% of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australia, Far East Index - "EAFE" (International Equity) and 35% of the LB Aggregate Bond Index (Fixed Income). Equity Managers 1. The total return shall exceed the total return of the relevant equity benchmark: Domestic Large Cap - S&P 500 Index, Domestic Small Cap - Russell 2000 Index, International EAFE Index. 2. The manager's return will be expected to rank above the median return of the appropriate Equity Manager Universe, and of managers with a similar style. 3. The manager will be expected to maintain a beta (volatility) no greater than 1.20 versus the relevant equity benchmark. 4. The risk-adjusted performance (alpha) is expected to be positive. Fixed Income Managers 1. The total return shall exceed the total return of the LB Aggregate Bond Index. 2. The manager's return will be expected to rank above the median return of the Fixed Income Manager Universe. �3. The manager will be expected to maintain a duration no greater than + 25% that of the LB Aggregate Bond Index. Non-permanent and Temporary Cash Funds 1. The total return shall exceed the total return of the 90-day Treasury Bill. 2. The manager will be expected to maintain a standard deviation no greater than that of the one year Treasury Bill. INVESTMENT MANAGER REQUIREMENTS 1. In today's rapidly changing and complex financial world, no list or types of categories of investments can provide continuously adequate guidance for achieving the Finance Committee's investment objectives. Any such list is likely to be too inflexible to be suitable of the market environment in which investment decisions must be made. Therefore, it is the process by which investment strategies and decisions are developed, analyzed, adopted, implemented and monitored, and the overall manner in which investment risk is managed, which determines whether an appropriate standard of reasonableness, care and prudence has been met for The Foundation's investments. 2. Although there are no strict guidelines that will be utilized in selecting investment managers, the Finance Committee will consider the length of time the firm has been in existence, its track record, fees, assets under management, and the amount of assets the Foundation already has invested with the firm. 3. The requirements stated below apply to investments in non-mutual and non-pooled funds, where the investment manager is able to construct a separate, discretionary account on behalf of the Foundation. Although the Finance Committee cannot dictate policy to pooled/mutual fund investment managers, the Finance Committee's intent is to select and retain only pooled/mutual funds with policies that are similar to this policy statement. All managers (pooled/mutual and separate), however, are expected to achieve the performance objectives. 4. Unless prior written approval is obtained from the Finance Committee to the contrary: a. Each investment manager must satisfy the performance objectives and asset allocation guidelines. b. Each investment manager shall have the full investment discretion with regard to market timing and security selection, consistent with this Investment Policy Statement. c. The investment managers shall be evaluated on a quarterly basis and should be prepared to meet with the Finance Committee at least annually. d. The investment manager shall handle the voting of proxies and tendering of shares in a manner that is in the best interest of the Foundation and consistent with the investment objectives contained herein. e. The investment managers shall not utilize derivative securities to increase the actual or potential risk posture of the portfolio. Subject to other provisions in this Investment Policy Statement, the use of primary derivatives, including, but not limited to, structured notes*, lower class tranches of collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs)**, principal only (PO) or interest only (IO) strips, inverse �floating securities, futures contracts, options, short sales, margin trading and such other specialized investment activity is prohibited. Moreover, the investment managers are precluded from using derivatives to effect a leveraged portfolio structure (if options and futures are specifically approved by the Finance Committee, such positions must be offset in their entirety by corresponding cash or securities). The Finance Committee must explicitly authorize the use of such derivative instruments, and shall consider certain criteria including, but not limited to, the following: i. ii. iii. iv. v. Manager's proven expertise in such category. Value added by engaging in derivatives. Liquidity of instruments. Actively traded by major exchanges (or for over-the-counter positions, executed with major dealers), Manager's internal procedures to evaluate derivatives, such as scenario and volatility analysis and duration constraints. * Permit investments in "conservative" structured notes which are principal guaranteed, unleveraged, and of short to intermediate maturity. ** Lower class defined by Federal Financial Institutional Examination Council (FFIEC). f. There shall be no investments in non-marketable securities, except for Rule 144a securities (with or without registration rights). Rule 144a securities shall not exceed 20% of a fixed income manager's portfolio. g. For diversification purposes, the equity portion of each investment manager's portfolio should have in excess of 20 positions. h. Each investment manager must assure that no position of any one issuer shall exceed 8% of the manager's portfolio at market value, with the exception of securities issued by the U.S..government and its agencies. i. Each investment manager must assure that no more than 25% of its portfolio is invested in any one industry sector, with the exception of securities issued by the U.S. government and its agencies. j. The investment manager shall not effect a purchase which would cause a position in the portfolio to exceed 5% of the issue outstanding at market value. k. The bond portfolio must have an overall weighted average credit rating of "A" or better by Moody's and Standard & Poor's rating services. In addition, there shall be no bond investments below investment grade (Baa/BBB). In the event that a bond instrument is downgraded below investment grade, then the investment manager shall immediately notify the Finance Committee in writing. In the case of a split rating, the higher rating will apply. 1. Not more than $250,000 of an investment manager's portfolio shall be invested in commercial paper of any one issuer. The credit quality must A1/PI. �m. Not more than $100,000 shall be invested in Bank Certificates of Deposit of any single issuer. EVALUATION OF INVESTMENT MANAGERS The investment managers will be reviewed on an ongoing basis and evaluated upon the following additional criteria: 1. Ability to meet or exceed the performance objectives stated in this Investment Policy Statement. 2. Adherence to the philosophy and style which were articulated to the Finance Committee at, or subsequent to, the time the investment manager was retained. 3. Ability to meet or exceed the performance of other investment managers who adhere to the same or similar style. 4. Continuity of personnel and practices at the firm. The investment manager shall immediately notify the Finance Committee in writing of any material changes in its investment outlook, strategy, portfolio structure, ownership, or senior personnel. CONCLUSION The substance of this document is to be interpreted as a model for investment principles and guidelines with the realization that certain circumstances may prevent the Finance Committee from fully complying with these precepts. In any case, all such variances must be approved by the Board of Trustees. This statement of investment policy shall be reviewed annually.

Frank Fountain President, DaimlerChrysler Corporation Fund Senior Vice President, Government Affairs DaimlerChrysler Corporation 1000 Chrysler Drive Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326-2766 Dear Frank: I am writing to share some great news about the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA). As you may recall from our conversation last summer, CMA is a cuttingedge initiative designed to provide long-term support for the thousands of people who volunteer daily in communities all across Michigan. We do this by bringing together the resources, expertise and leadership of Michigan's premiere statewide volunteer support organizations. John S. Lore, formerly with the Sisters of St. Joseph Health System, has agreed to take on the leadership reigns of the CMA and has been actively involved in moving our vision forward. John is a leader in the nonprofit sector and has a good deal of experience in helping grow innovative organizations. We are very excited about his appointment as President and CEO. In addition to our organizational development work, we have also made great strides in our endowment building efforts. As you know, the CMA Campaign is unique, not only because of the creative collaboration of the State's premiere volunteer oriented nonprofits, but also because of an innovative public/private partnership. The CMA will do its great work well into the future due to a $20 million permanent fund we are building with the help of a challenge grant from the State of Michigan and the private sector funds we have raised as a result. To date we have raised $5.5 million in private sector funds and that moves us over the halfway mark on the campaign! Neeta Delaney David 0. Egner Eric R. Gilbertson Karla Hall Dorothy A.

Our timing for this unveiling is April 29-30, 2002 at our Volunteerism SuperConference in Lansing. This biennial event is our Connect Michigan Alliance P.O.

We also hope to announce that we will be completing the final portion of the campaign as we currently have a number of key requests pending. We believe the DaimlerChrylser Corporation is a vital potential partner in this endeavor and I would like to encourage you to join our campaign. I know that Terry Pruitt has spoken to you about how important it for us to include your organization in our campaign. You have our organizational materials from our meeting last summer and a proposal requesting a $1 million commitment. This is comparable to the request we made to both the Ford Motor Company Fund and the General Motors Corporation. I am excited and pleased to report that the Ford Motor Company Fund has committed $1 million to our effort. Ford's pledge, like all pledges to the CMA Campaign, is eligible for the State of Michigan match and can be distributed over multiple years. Should you need any information regarding pledges or the CMA, please feel free to contact me or John Lore, at (517)492-2442. Thank you in advance for your support. In light of recent events, it is clear that we need to support our volunteers and their community building efforts now more than ever. I hope the DaimlerChrysler Corporation will join us in our goal of endowing service and volunteerism in Michigan/ arm regards, Engler First Lady of Michigan cc: Terry Pruitt Julie Fisher Cummings Geneva Jones Williams � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Richardson April 1,2002 Mr. Frank Fountain, President DaimlerChrysler Corporation Fund Senior Vice President, Government Affairs DaimlerChrysler Corporation 1000 Chrysler Drive Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326-2766 Dear Frank: Great news from The Kresge Foundation! We have been awarded a $1,000,000 grant for the ConnectMichigan Alliance. Because the grant is contingent on the successful completion of the endowment campaign, our $1,000,000 request from DaimlerChrysler can be leveraged with this $1,000,000, as well as the match of $1,000,000 provided by the State of Michigan. We had an excellent meeting with the ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign Committee on March 26, 2002, and the report was exciting! We have received pledges and gifts totaling over $7,000,000. Frank, in order to successfully complete this campaign, we will need the support of DaimlerChrysler. Because of the challenge from the State of Michigan and from The Kresge Foundation, your gift of $1,000,000 will actually produce $3,000,000 in perpetuity to strengthen volunteerism in Michigan. Enclosed is a copy of the award letter from The Kresge Foundation. Campaign Cabinet Edward 0. Blews Carolyn Bloodworth Nonie Brennan Stanley P.

Luhbet·s Russell G. Mawby Barbara Mieras I called Sandy Ulsh, Vice President and Executive Director of the Ford Motor Company Fund, last week and asked her to call Frank Fountain and encourage him to scale the DaimlerChrysler gift on the Ford gift and not the gift from General Motors. Andrea F. Newman J nan Olivarez Joel Orosz Terry Pruitt Judith Ann Rapanos Patricia Reynolds Michelle, Julie, Dottie and Bill, if you should meet Frank in your professional circles it might be helpful if you do the same. Anne, if you feel comfortable doing so , a call to your DaimlerChrysler Foundation staff contact might also be helpful. I think if Frank knows how disappointed we were in the General Motors gift level he might work more diligently to meet our $1,000 ,000 request level. I know that we are all extremely busy this month -- however, a contact from each, or any of you, might make a difference. Anne Rosewarne Kathryn Rossow Peter Secchia Diana Sieger Glenn D.

Steil Jud y Tymowicz As you may know, I became Chair of the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Board on July 1, 2003 . I did so because I am resolutely committed to strengthening volunteerism in Michigan! I am also convinced that the best way to accomplish that goal is through the CMA endowment. I know you both feel the same way and you have demonstrated that clearly through your generous support of the endowment. As you know, we are so close to reaching that goal. We are within $646,000 completing our challenges from the State and from The Kresge Foundation and the Dow Coming Corporation. At risk is not only $646,000, but as importantly the $1 ,000,000 from Kresge; $646,000 from the State and $100,000 from Dow Coming. We cannot lose those dollars! Moreover, time is currently working against us since these challenges expire on December, 31, 2003. Frank and Rod, I am extremely passionate about this endowment because the alliance is even more successful than we anticipated when we developed the concept. Con nect Michigan Alliance P. O.

Will ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) increase access to hotlines for volunteer use and will CMA result in an increase in the level of volunteerism in Michigan? Over the past fifteen years, a significant amount of human and financial capital has been invested in the development and nurturing of an ethic of service and volunteerism in communities throughout the state. And a significant return has been realized on the investment as evidenced by Michigan Giving and Volunteering 2001 which estimates volunteerism in Michigan at 50.2% annually. To date, Michigan's success in engaging people civically is the result of vision and focus as most of what has been accomplished has been stewarded by organizations that target specific Michigan populations. For example, some groups focus on post-secondary students while others focus on engaging people in a specific community. These systems generate positive results, but they also operate independently of each other which minimizes the potential return on Michigan's investment in service and volunteerism. Leaders of these initiatives realized that they have had an incredible impact on the quality of life in communities throughout the state. They also realized that they had come to a point in their efforts that required them to change their approach if they were to realize the true potential of Michigan in terms of service and volunteerism. ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) was created by key stakeholders in Michigan's service and volunteer initiatives and was given the mandate and onus to increase the return on investment in service and volunteerism in Michigan. While the CMA campaign is still in process, several key initiatives to increase the level of service and volunteerism are already underway. • • CMA is expected to increase service and volunteerism in Michigan by being the first statewide organization to facilitate a 211 line for volunteerism. While other 211 initiatives exist, they served only limited geographic areas. CMA will bring this resource to the entire state. CMA is the only statewide organization working with all three of the major internet-based volunteer matching programs: Volunteer Here (C. S. Mott Foundation), Volunteer Match (Volunteer Centers of Michigan), and Volunteer Solutions (Michigan Association of United Ways). CMA's coordination of the service delivery will increase access to include Michigan's 36 counties not currently being served by a local Volunteer Center (currently 47 of Michigan's 83 counties are served by a local Center). Thousands of people who were previously unable to use this resource to match themselves appropriately with service and volunteer opportunities in their communities will now be able to do so.. .CMA estimates volunteerism in Michigan will increase from 50.2 percent in 2000 to 65 percent in 2004 as a result of this and other CMA initiatives. �What are some concrete initiatives resulting from CMA: The following strategies have been developed to impact the four areas of need CMA will address as it works to forward its mandate and mission: • Community Volunteerism CMA supports and enhances the work of Volunteer Centers serving communities throughout the state. CMA will work with local Volunteer Centers, United Ways, and other local nonprofit organizations whose activities contribute significantly to improving the quality of life for residents of Michigan communities. Local organizations will experience greater capacity to convene human resources to address local issues through the following CMA programs and services: Volunteer Center Development Corporate and Business Volunteerism Local Grants 1-800-VOLUNTEER Hotline Make A Difference Day National Volunteer Week America's Promise in MI Volunteerism Resource Library • Youth Volunteerism CMA will work closely with local Volunteer Centers, local school districts, and other youth-serving nonprofit organizations to ensure quality volunteer and service-learning experiences for children. Through this CMA initiative Michigan communities will increase their capacities to develop new and strengthen existing collaborative partnerships between K-12 schools, institutions of higher education, Volunteer Centers and youth serving nonprofit organizations for the purpose of providing quality volunteer and service-learning experiences for young people. This will be accomplished via the following programs and services, as well as programs and services that will be developed as relationships are formed and further needs are identified: Youth Volunteer Opportunities K-12 Service-Learning Local Grants YES Ambassador Program Service-Learning Support • Higher Education CMA, through its Michigan Campus Compact affiliation, has a longstanding tradition of supporting the service-learning initiatives of institutions of higher education serving Michigan communities. While CMA expands membership among local colleges and universities, it will continue to work with its 43 current member institutions via the following programs and services: Institute on Academic Service-Learning �Service Leadership Camp Local Support Grants State-wide Recognition Networking Meetings Student Community Action Network [SCAN] Regional Collaborations Publications/Dissemination Promoting Multi-Disciplinary Service-Learning Student Civic Engagement Opportunities • Training and Technical Assistance CMA has identified five regions throughout the state that will serve as "training hubs" to ensure all Michigan nonprofit organizations have access to essential training and technical assistance. CMA will work through local Volunteer Centers and other management service organizations to ensure Michigan nonprofit organizations have access to national and state recognized training and technical assistance around volunteerism and service-learning best-practice programming via the following programs and services: Statewide Initiatives Regional Training and Technical Assistance What role will Governor Engler play in the completion of the CMA Campaign? If the DaimlerChrysler Corporation Fund pledges support for CMA at the $1 million level in November, Governor Engler is personally committed to approach General Motors directly before he leaves office to encourage them to match the level of support provided by DaimlerChrysler Corporation and Ford Motor Company. What impact will CMA have on youth (preparing tomorrow's leaders)? CMA creates a whole new synergy among stakeholders in Michigan's volunteerism and service industry, particularly in the area of youth civic engagement. Operating in isolation, stakeholders have minimal impact on creating opportunities for all Michigan youth to realize their full potentials to serve and lead. CMA promotes formal and informal partnerships between local, state and national stakeholders that ally human and financial resources toward civically engaging all of Michigan's more than 1.7 million K12 student population. CMA promotes a collaborative environment amongst stakeholders focusing human and financial resources on a common goal of developing strategies and initiatives at the school, community, and state levels to ensure that every Michigan student is civically competent, caring and engaged by the time he or she graduates from high school. Examples of current and emerging initiatives include: • Learning to Give seeks to perpetuate a more civil society through the education of youth generation about "private citizen action intended for the common good" (philanthropy). This initiative is being advanced under a partnership between CMA, Learning to Give, the Council of Michigan Foundations, local school �• districts and various state and national private funders. Designed to be infused into the core academic curriculum of schools, Learning to Give's educational products and processes are easily applicable to working with young people in religious education and youth service groups as well. Michigan Civics Institute is a partnership of CMA, Education Commission of the States, National Conference of State Legislatures, the Michigan Department of Education, Michigan Community Service Commission, Michigan Council for Social Studies, and Michigan Campus Compact. The Institute will assess the status and impact of civic education and service learning initiatives at the K-12 level in Michigan. The goal of the Michigan Civics Institute is to provide opportunities for all Michigan youth to reach their potential to become informed, active and caring members of their communities. Michigan Civics Institute will an outstanding national K-12 civics education model for the nation. What is the capacity of the CMA Board of Directors to provide effective leadership? CMA's Board roster represents a "who's who" of Michigan stakeholders in the field of volunteerism and service. Their vision and experience have been critical to Michigan's successes in civic engagement, and in the creation of CMA which will move service and volunteerism in Michigan to the highest level. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Blews, Chair, CMA Endowment Advisory Committee Michigan Nonprofit Association Board of Directors From: Kyle Caldwell, President and CEO, Michigan Nonprofit Association Re: CMA Endowment Advisory Committee Process Date: March 12, 2012 Summary Thank you again for agreeing to serve as the Chair of the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment Advisory Committee (referred to in the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) Bylaws (See Attachment A, Article VII (2) as the Investment Committee). The committee is coming up on its annual review to ensure that the endowment proceeds are used in alignment with donor intent and that the funds held at the Capital Region Community Foundation are property invested and administered. That meeting is scheduled for April23rd from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00p.m. via conference call. We are also coming to an important milestone in the committee' s history. In the MNA Articles of Incorporation that were restated and adopted after the merger with the ConnectMichigan Alliance, Article VII created the Investment Committee. In that article it also stated that the committee shall exist until December 31, 2012, and after this date, the Directors of the MNA may vote to continue the committee, amend the committee, or abolish the committee (see Attachment B). Therefore there are two tasks before the Committee: review and approve staff recommendations for Endowment Allocations for the 2012-13 FY budget; determine the future of the Committee itself in preparation for the December 31,2012 review date. This memo is designed to explain the necessary steps the committee needs to take to deal both issues. Background The CMA Endowment is an agency fund of the Capital Region Community Foundation whose proceeds are designated to the MNA as part of a completed merger agreement between MNA �Engagement Committee which will be helping with the programmatic direction of the work supported in part by the CMA Endowment proceeds; and that the CMNMNA merger agreement and MNA Articles of Incorporation call for the decision for the future need of the committee by December, 2012; it seems logical to dissolve the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee and communicate in the charge ofthe Civic Engagement Committee, the findings of the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee as articulated above. �Attachment A �Michigan Nonprofit Association BYLAWS OF THE MICIDGAN NONPROFIT ASSOCIATION (Amended December 14, 2004) (Amended December 12, 2006) (Amended May 23, 2007) (Amended June 17, 2008) (Amended December 13, 2011) ARTICLE I: Purposes and Definitions Purposes.

ARTICLE IX: Standard of Care L~O l\167317.1 ID\JJBA (1) Duties and Liability. The Directors shall adhere to the Standard of Care required by the Michigan Nonprofit Corporation Act: that is a Director or Officer of the MNA shall discharge the duties of that position in good faith and with that degree of diligence, care, and skill which an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances in a like position. In discharging those duties, a Director or Officer, when acting in good faith, may rely upon the opinion of the MNA's counsel; upon the report of an independent appraiser selected with reasonable care by the Board; or upon financial statements of the MNA represented to the Director or Officer as correct by the Officer of the Corporation having charge of its books or account, or as stated in a written report by an independent public or certified public accountant or firm of accountants fairly to reflect the fmancial condition of the MNA. (2) Self-Dealing Transactions. Except as approved in Section 3 below, the Board shall not approve a self-dealing transaction.

Such determinations must be made by the Board, in good faith, with knowledge of the material facts concerning the transaction and the Director's interest in the transaction, and by a vote of two-thirds of the Directors present, without counting the vote of the interested Director(s). (4) Loans. The MNA shall not make any loan of money or property to, or guarantee the obligation of, any Director, Officer, employee or agent; provided, however, that the MNA may advance money to a Director, Officer, employee or agent of the MNA for expenses reasonably anticipated to be incurred in performance of assigned duties, so long as such individual would be entitled to reimbursement for such expense absent that advance. (5) Disclosure. Directors shall disclose the material facts as to any relationship or interest relating to contracts, programs, policies or other transactions that may be considered by the Board. A transaction may nonetheless be approved, as provided above in Section 3 of this Article. ARTICLE X: Administrative Matters (1) Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the MNA shall be July 1 through June 30. (2) Investment Policy. The Directors shall adopt and oversee an Investment Policy that shall provide for careful and prudent investment of the MNA's resources. The Investment Policy shall not extend to the Endowment which is to be governed by the Investment Committee, as required by the Articles of Incorporation. (3) Permanent Records of the MNA.

All such records shall be kept at the principle office of the MNA. Upon leaving office, each Officer, employee or other Agent of the MNA shall turn over to the successor or the Board Chair, in good order, originals of such corporate monies, books, records, minutes, lists, documents, contracts or other property of the MNA as have been in the person's custody during the term of office. 15 1 2 LANO l \~ .l.ll1.141..2 ID\JJBA �On written demand of the MNA, any Director may inspect, copy, and make extracts of the accounting books and records, record the names and addresses of the Members entitled to vote, and the minutes of proceedings of the Members, the Board, and Committees at any reasonable time for a purpose reasonably related to the Director's interest as a Director. Any such inspection and copying may be made in person or by the Director's agent or attorney.

The Fund is for the purpose of creating an endowment for ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA). Subject to the provision of this Agreement, distribution from the Fund will be made annually to CMA according to the Spending Guidelines established by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation. In general, the principal of permanent endowments will not be invaded except when applying the Spending Guidelines, or in extraordinaty circumstances as deemed appropriate by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation. CMA may also request that all or a portion of the amount available for distribution be reinvested in the Fund principal. Gifts may be added to the Fund at any time by CMA or by other donors. The Board of Trustees of the Capital Region Community Foundation ("Foundation") shall have fmal authority and discretion·as to the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund as a part of the Foundation's "pooled fund" investment. Overall investment guidelines, objectives and performance of the "pooled fund" investment shall be submitted in writing annually to CMA by the Foundation. The Foundation, upon receipt of contributions to the Fund, will establish a separate account for the accounting control of funds received from CMA or from other persons or organizations wishing to directly make gifts to the Foundation for the purpose of assisting CMA. The Foundation shall separately account for all principal and income in the Fund. The Foundation shall provide CMA with a complete reporting on the Fund's activity, including all receipts, disbursements, income and expenses, within 60 days following completion of the Foundation's annual public audit. The Foundation shall furnish all routine accounting, as well as reporting to the Michigan Attorney General and the Internal Revenue Service regarding the Fund. It is understood that Foundation staff shall work actively with CMA in offering advice, consultation and support for the development or expansion of a deferred-giving program by CMA Board of Directors. The Foundation also agrees to actively promote gifts to the Fund through the Foundation's web site, printed materials, newsletter, annual reports and special mailings to prospective donors. In exchange for the investment management, accounting and deferred giving services, the Foundation will charge the Fund customary and usual fees, which will be deducted annually in the first quarter of the year. Any change in this fee shall be made only after notice to the CMA Board of Directors. This fee is in addition to any investment fees charged to the Foundation prorated to this Fund, and to any extraordinaty direct expense relating to the Fund, which will be paid by the Fund. �. I ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund Agreement 2 It is understood that as of the date of this agreement CMA is in process of securing its 501(c)(3) non-profit status. In the event that this status is denied, the fund assets will be split with 50% transferred to the CRCF MNA permanent endowment fund and 50% transferred to a CRCF MCSC permanent endowment fund. In the event of the dissolution of CMA, or if CMA ceases to be a qualified charitable organization, the Foundation shall thereafter continue to hold the assets constituting the Fund and shall distribute the net income and/or principal therefrom to such organizations as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation most nearly meet the purposes of CMA. To the extent that the Board of Directors of CMA may convene at times relevant to this paragraph, the Foundation shall consult with the Board of Directors of CMA to determine an appropriate recipient of the distribution. If the Foundation ceases to be a qualified charitable organization or if the Foundation proposes to dissolve, the assets of the Fund, after payment or making provision for payment of any liabilities properly chargeable to the Fund, shall be distributed to CMA. If CMA is not then a qualified charitable organization, said assets shall be distributed in such manner and to such organization or organizations as satisfies the requirements of a qualified charitable organization and serves purposes similar to those of CMA. It is understood and agreed that all assets held in the Fund shall be subject to the Charter and Bylaws of the Foundation, including, but not limited to, the power contained therein for the Board of Trustees of the Foundation to modify any restrictions or considerations on the distribution of the fund for any specified charitable purposes or to specified organizations, if in the sole judgment of the governing body (without the necessity of the approval of any participating trustees, agent or custodian), such restriction or condition become, in effect, unnecessary, incapable of fulfillment or inconsistent with charitable needs of the community or area served by the Foundation. [(Treas. Reg. Section 1. 170A-9(c)(I l)(v)(b)(l)] Definitions and Construction (a) As used in this Agreement (1) "Qualified charitable organization," means an organization described in IRC 509(a)(l), (2) or (3) and which is other than a private foundation under 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. (2) (b) Reference to any provision of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deemed references to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as the same be amended from time to time and the corresponding provision of any future U.S. Internal Revenue Code. It is intended that the Fund shall be a component part of the Foundation and that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the status of the Foundation as an entity which is a qualified charitable organization. This Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the foregoing intention and so as to conform to the requirement of the Internal Revenue Code and any regulations issued pursuant thereto applicable to the intended status of the Foundation. �------- -- ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund Agreement 3 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Party hereto has executed this Agreement by its duly authorized officers effective as ofthe day and year of the signing of the Agreement.

Capital Region community foundation The Center for Charitable Giving November 30, 2006 HAND DELIVERED Kyle Caldwell President and CEO ConnectMichigan Alliance 1048 Pierpont, Suite 3 Lansing, Michigan · 48911 Re: ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund; Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund; George W. Romney Endowment Fund; Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund Dear Kyle: As you indicated to me yesterday, ConnectMichigan Alliance and the Michigan Nonprofit Association are engaged in discussions regarding the possible consolidation of their programs and activities, either through a merger of CMA into MNA, or by having CMA become a supporting organization ofMNA. You asked me to provide you with an explanation of how such a consolidatiqn would affect distributions from the abovereferenced endowment funds, all of which now benefit CMA. Under either consolidation scenario the endowment funds should continue to support the same types of activities they were originally intended to support. The Supporting Organization Scenario If CMA simply becomes a supporting organization of MNA, distributions from the funds would continue to go to CMA, since CMA would still exist as a separate corporate entity. The fact that MNA might control the selection ofCMA's board would not affect CMA's status as the beneficiary of the funds. This assumes, of course, that CMA would continue to engage in the same type ofvolunteerism programming that the funds were intended to suppmt. The Merger Scenario If CMA was dissolved in order to merge with MNA, we would look at the language of the fund agreements for guidance as to how to proceed. I have enclosed for your 6035 Executive Drive • Suite 104 • Lansing, MI 48911 517-272-2870 • Fax 517-272-2871 • www.crcfoundation.org For good. For ever.- · �Kyle Caldwell November 30,2006 Page2 information copies of the relevant documentation regarding each of these endowment funds, and discuss that documentation below. The ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund The ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund was originally established to support CMA, and still does so. Note the following provision at the top of page 2 of the fund agreement: In the event of the dissolution of CMA, or if CMA ceases to be a qualified charitable organization, the Foundation shall thereafter continue to hold the assets constituting the Fund and shall distribute the net income and/or principal therefrom to such organizations as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation most nearly meet the purposes of CMA. To the extent that the Board of Directors of CMA may convene at times relevant to this paragraph, the Foundation shall consult with the Board of Directors of CMA to determine an appropriate recipient of the distribution. Although any decision to change the beneficiary of a fund would have to be approved by the Community Foundation's Board of Trustees, I am confident that if CMA merged into MNA, the Community Foundation's Board would honor a request by CMA's Board to have the beneficiary of the fund changed to MNA, to be used for the same volunteerism purposes. The Romney, Mawby, and Campus Compact Funds The George W. Romney Endowment Fund and the Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund were originally established to support the volunteerism efforts of MNA. However, MNA subsequently requeste.d that the beneficiary of these funds be changed to CMA (for the same type ofvolunteerism programs). See Sam Singh's letter of December 17, 2002. The Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund was originally established by MNA as a subfund of the Romney Fund (see Sam Singh's letter of September 1, 2000, along with the attached page from the grant contract), and its beneficiary was changed to CMA along with the Romney Fund. Again, see Sam Singh's letter of December 17, 2002. Note that in the December 171h letter, Sam Singh stated that the requested change in benefiCiary was conditioned upon the following: that in the event CMA was dissolved, MNA would once again become the beneficiary of these funds. I am therefore confident that in the event ofCMA's merger with MNA, the Community Foundation Board would authorize distributions from these funds to be made to MNA, to be used for the same volunteerism purposes. Conclusion Given the language of the documentation, as well as the desire of our Board to have our endowment funds serve their original purpose whenever possible, I am confident that any �Kyle Caldwell November 30, 2006 Page 3 consolidation of MNA and CMA would not change the way in which the distributions from these funds are used. Given the significance of these issues, I would suggest that any merger plan be presented to the Community Foundation's Board prior to the plan's implementation, _so that you could proceed with confidence regarding the manner in which future distributions are handled. I hope that this information is helpful, Kyle. Please feel free to give me a call should you wish to further discuss the matter.

Ratification of New Funds Administratively Approved - There were no new funds during this time period for ratification. B. Confidential Report on Funds Under Negotiation- Fliehman reported possible new funds established by both Eaton Rapids and Potterville Schools. In addition, we recently received an inquiry from a grant recipient on the possibility of establishing a fund . C. Change of Beneficiary for CMA Funds- A memo was distributed to the Board in regards to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund and its related funds, and changing the beneficiary of these funds to Michigan Nonprofit Association, in light of the recent CMAIMNA merger. It was MSC: Wilson/Maxwell to approve making the Michigan Nonprofit Association the �CRCF Board Meeting July 24, 2007 Page 5 beneficiary of the ConnectAIIiance Fund, the Russell G. Maw by Endowment Fund, the George W . Romney Endowment Fund, and the Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund. VI. STRATEGIC PLANNING Mission, Vision, Values and Goals -A proposed document was distributed to Trustees prior to the Board meeting for their input. A suggestion for a wording change under 'Accountability' was received and the new wording was provided at today's meeting for review. Donovan reviewed the document item by item and Fliehman provided expositional background. The ' Accountability' wording change suggested by Maxwell was agreed to by the group: "CRCF is accountable for its actions, as demonstrated through its transparency and competence. Transparency is measured against factors of candor, objectivity, and integrity, while competence is measured against factors of efficiency, effectiveness, knowledge, and respect." For the " Strategy and Goals" section, the idea was to identify the strategies and how to achieve them, and to identify benchmarks at a later point in time. Solomon questioned the measurement of Strategic Goal # 1.2 (Collaborate with local funders to ensure that the region ' s youth population has access to necessary personal development resources) and several outcome measures were suggested as options. Because the actual project for the youth initiative has not yet been chosen, nor have the targeted ages been identified (currently 'youth' is being defmed as 0-18, but the focus may shift to certain ages within this range), it was decided to not identify specific outcome measures at this time. After discussion, it was agreed to adopt the following wording change for Goal #1.2: "Progress toward achieving the goal will be measured by the aggregate numbers of organizations and funding dollars brought together for this purpose, the aggregate number of youth served by them, as well as specific outcome measures to be determined." The measurement for Strategic Goal #3.1 (Maximize the productivity of the Foundation' s operations .. . ) was thought to need clarification based on the vagueness of the goal itself. After discussion, it was agreed to change the wording for this goal to the following: " Progress toward achieving this goal can be measured by the efficiency and effectiveness of work accomplished by staff members." The language under Strategic Goal #4.1 (Become recognized as a community leader. . . ) was also discussed. The suggestion was made to add the word ' value' after ' visibility' , and to strike out the words ' more importantly.' It was agreed that the sentence should now read: "The Foundation will gain visibility and value for the programs and activities in which it is engaged through expanded advertising and public relations efforts and by achieving positive program impact throughout the community." It was MSC: Solomon/Aigra to approve the CRCF Mission, Vision, Values and Goals document with the above wording changes. Vll. CHAIR' S REPORT Blackett did not have a report at this time. Vill. PRESIDENT'S REPORT A. Activity Report: Fliehman recently gave four presentations for possible agency funds, and met with 5 donors and professional advisors. B. Office Space Expansion Update: The Executive Committee approved giving Fliehman the authority to enter to a lease agreement on terms at least as favorable as the landlord' s proposal received on 6/26/07. After the Executive Committee meeting, Fliehman had further room to negotiate and we received a proposal that contained even better terms. A new lease has been �CRCF Board Meeting July 24, 2007 Page6 received for signature; after a couple of minor details are clarified, we will be able to sign the lease and commence the expansion work and renovations. As Trustees were previously aware, former Trustee Bob Carr passed away on July 4th. Fliehman read from a Jetter he wrote to his wife Julie that paid tribute to him and his many contributions to the Foundation. CRCF made a gift to the YMCA Endowment Fund in his honor. A memorial gift in Carr's honor was also received from former CRCF Executive Director Mary Olson, and the touching note that accompanied the gift was read aloud. Watters reported that Capitol National Bank is gathering stories about Carr commemorating his life. They plan to collect them and publish them as a book. There is a link on the Capitol National Bank website if any one would like to share a tale. It was suggested that a tribute of some kind be made at the 20th Anniversary Breakfast. IX. OTHER BUSINESS/ROUNDTABLE Student Trustee Alley had a suggestion that in addition to the two Y AC representatives on YIC, that the committee consider obtaining input from other youth in the community, specifically those youth who might benefit from the initiative. Board members highlighted their recent professional and personal achievements/activities. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 5:05p.m. Respectfully submitted, Traci Goulding, Executive Assistant Nancy L.

The process set forth in this document includes a brief history of the endowment , a review process that affirmed the donor intent for the endowment proceeds, and specific guidance for FY 2011-2014. Background: The ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment was created on July 13, 2000 with the signing of Senate Bill 968 by Governor John Engler. This bill established the state funded challenge grant of $10 million which was to be matched 1:1 by private funds that would be permanently endowed to support volunteer infrastructure in Michigan. The $20 million campaign was completed in 2005 with payouts completed in 2007 and permanently housed at the Capital Region Community Foundation (CRCF) as part of a compliment of agency funds assigned to the ConnectMichigan Alliance (a 501 c 3 nonprofit corporation). In 2007, the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) merged with the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and transferred all responsibilities for these assets to the board of MNA. The board of CRCF approved the assignment of the CMA Endowment proceeds to MNA in July of 2007. As part of the merger agreement, the boards of MNA and CMA agreed to establish an advisory committee within the board of MNA. The CMA Endowment Advisory Committee works to ensure that MNA, as the partner with fiduciary authority of the endowment, allocates the funds in a manner that is genuine, reasonable, and in accordance with the intended purpose of the original donors to the endowment . The original CMA Endowment partner organizations, the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC), Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), MNA, and the Michigan Community Service Commission (MSCS) have designated members to serve on the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee. A review of these practices was conducted in October 2010 by an Ad Hoc committee and accepted by the MNA Board of Directors on December14, 2010. The findings of that committee are as follows : �1. The Committee believes that the original donor intent has been preserved and the proceeds handled in accordance with their wishes. 2. Staff of MNA is encouraged to continue to find productive and innovative ways for the MCSC and MNA to partner to encourage and support service and volunteer infrastructure. 3. During this time of economic stress and political uncertainty, MNA should continue, and prepare to redouble its advocacy efforts on behalf of the MCSC to ensure its important leadership role in promoting and leveraging resources for volunteerism, national service, and service-learning. Guidance for Allocation of CMA Endowment Proceeds (annual process) This document is designed to guide current and future leaders of MNA in the allocation ofthe CMA Endowment proceeds. Annually, staff of MNA will present to the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee, a plan for the allocation of CMA Endowment proceeds. The plan should include the following: • Fund performance including asset size, growth over the previous year, and projected allocation amount for the upcoming fiscal year; • MNA organizational budget that designates the allocation of the Endowment proceeds as revenue, expenses projected to be charged to the endowment proceeds revenue line; and • Staff recommendations on allocation reinvestment (if any). This process should precede and inform the annual budget meeting of the Finance Committee of MNA. The MNA Board of Directors will then consider the recommendations as part of its annual review and adoption of the fiscal year budget. Specific Guidance for FY 2011-2014 The CMA Endowment partner organizations will propose to the MNA Board, the allocation of specific funds for the fiscal years of 2011-2014 to ensure that review finding #2 (above) is upheld. In effort to do so, MNA will establish CMA Endowment Partnership Funding Allocation Guidelines as follows: For the period of July 2011 through June 2014, the CMA Endowment partner organizations agree to 9llocate no less than $150,000 to joint partner projects that meet the following guidelines: 1. Revenue from the CMA Endowment proceeds will be placed in a three-fiscal year restricted fund to support CMA Endowment Partnership Initiatives that focus on the original donor intent. 2. All approved initiatives must be conceived, proposed, and implemented with the full support of all CMA Endowment partner organizations and reviewed annually as part ofthe normal MNA budgeting process which includes the aforementioned CMA Endowment Advisory Committee. �3. All approved initiatives must demonstrate the benefit to the CMA Endowment partners, the state's volunteer infrastructure, and/or the field of service and volunteerism in Michigan its regions and local communities. In addition, the proposed project will be the collective responsibility of the partners and not the sole responsibility of any one partner. 4. Projects may contribute to the ongoing technology infrastructure development for the state 5. Approved projects may include those which would leverage additional funding {local, state, or national) for partner projects. Please Note: for the funding period of July 2011-June 2014, the partners may propose plans that would carry forward any unexpended dollars to future years in effort to grow the joint fund. The endowment proceeds and related expenses will be tracked as part of the organization's quarterly budget review and presented to the MNA Board of Directors at their regularly scheduled meetings. This plan will be reviewed annually by the staff of MNA and the CMA Endowment partners . �Attachment F �Michigan Nonprofit Association ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment Advisory Committee (Investment Committee) Edward 0.

Ross School of Business University of Michigan for Michigan Nonprofit Association Michigan l\'onprofit As,;;<:JCi:ltion LXIVERSITY OF :MlC'"ilGA.'-.: �Execlltive Summary • Project Motivation: As public and private funding for nonprofits became more uncertain in the wake the recession, the continued health of the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment has become essential to MNA and its constituents. The CMA Endowment Advisory Committee's work to clarify donor intent in 2009-10 highlighted a need to document and better understand endowment growth and proceeds. Doing so will improve internal processes as well as to enable transparency between MNA and donors, and between MNA and partner organizations. • Project Scope: The purpose of this project is to create a financial history of the endowment as well to improve MNA's ability to project payout in a timely and accurate manner. • Process: The following report results from interviewing and collecting financial and institutional data from Tina Bruce, Director of Finance at MNA and Richard Comstock, VP of Finance at CRCF from February-March 2011. • Central Findings of the Report: • Historical picture of asset growth and payout 2000-20 10 CRCF policies key to estimating endowment proceeds • Impact of the recession on assets and future payout Recommended practices and tools for projecting payout going forward �2010 Net Assets are 85°/o of Pre-Recession Peak December 31st Asset Balance 2000-10 $25,000,000 - , - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ' - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - · $20,591,342 $17,581,592 $10,000,000 - l - - - �Net Assets by Fund 2000-2010 25000000 20000000 15000000 "Engler :.·campus 10000000 "Romney "Mawby ,.
