| 2002-03-19-02 Treasurer |
Due to the difficulties of working with financial matters which are based in Maryland while residing on the other side of the country, the Treasurer has stepped down from his position. After discussion of the possibilities, it was RESOLVED that Jon Backus would serve as Treasurer as well as Chair and that Mark Klein would take the position of Assistant Treasurer, but serve strictly in an advisory role, electing not to have the right or responsibility of such things as signing corporate checks. This arrangement is intended only for the organizational phase of OpenMPE, Inc. and is to be brought again before the board when the requirements of the two positions exceed what may reasonably be expected of one person. |

The accountant is proceeding with the work necessary to have OpenMPE,

will be classified under section 501(c)(6), Business League
Organizations.
The Charter and Bylaws have been completed and were delivered to the board. It was RESOLVED that the Charter and Bylaws, as amended during the meeting, be ratified. |
