I mostly agree with the goal of this clarification, but I think this wording for the final paragraph is slightly more aligned with the precise legal specifics: In such a circumstance, the SPI Board will, in its good-faith discretion, proceed as follows: the Board will identify one or more other SPI associated projects or 501(c)(3) charities which can accept the project's assets and use them for a similar purpose, and transfer the assets to the identified destination or destinations as feasible. Assets for which no such transfer can be arranged within a reasonable time will become part of the SPI general fund. How does that sound? I realize that "within a reasonable time" relies on the discretion noted at the start of my proposed paragraph, but so does your wording (e.g. "try to identify" / "failing that"). - Jimmy Kaplowitz ji...@spi-inc.org _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list Spi-general@lists.spi-inc.org http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
