Alan Singleton seconded the motion, which was approved with affirmative votes by all members present and by proxy by Arbuckle & Steeves. Presidents Annual Report: Gary Matthews reviewed the Foundation financial activity for 2012 through December 7 and provided a summary of current assets and liabilities. He reported that the book value of total net assets in the MAYC Endowment Fund increased during the year by $7,228 from $115,701 to $122,929, a growth of about 6%. Disbursements to MAYC during the year totaled $4,685, including $1,000 in cash, $3,056 in occupancy costs for the property at 604 Main, which is used by MAYC, and $629 in other in-kind payments in support of MAYC fund raising activities. A copy of the complete financial report is provided at Appendix A. Old Business: Gary Matthews reported that investigation into possible ways to increase return on investment in the two Main Street properties via a long term commercial lease, or sale independent of the MAYC property, had revealed little interest in either option. New Business: It was noted that at least one of the options for improving MAYC services that is currently being considered by the MAYC board of Directors would involve sale of the MAYC property and relocation of MAYC programming to alternative facilities. To provide assurance of Foundation support in the event that the MAYC Board decides to pursue this option, Gary Matthews made a motion that the MAKE Foundation agree to sell the two Main Street properties in conjunction with any sale of the MAYC property, subject to agreement with the MAYC Board of Directors and with the understanding that all net proceeds from the sale of the two Main Street properties will remain in the MAYC Endowment Account for the purpose of generating income to support ongoing MAYC operations. The motion was seconded by Lee Jessup and approved by affirmative voice vote of all members present and by proxy on behalf of Arbuckle & Steeves. Gertrude Matthews brought up the subject of the legacy insurance policy on the lives of Gary and Gertrude Matthews, which has a death benefit value of $400,000 payable to the MAYC endowment fund upon the death of both Gary & Gertrude, and a current cash surrender value of about $80,000. She noted that a major portion of contributions to the Foundation are required to pay the annual $9,924 premium on the policy and suggested that the Board consider terminating the policy and utilize the $80,000 in cash to generate current income. This would also allow more of the contributions to the Foundation to be used to support ongoing MAYC operations. Gertrudes suggestion was favorably received and generally supported by all Board members present, but it was agreed that no action would be taken until decisions are made by the MAYC Board regarding the possible sale of properties and how MAYC will be structured and operate in the future. Adjournment Lee Jessup made the motion, which was seconded by Alan Singleton, to adjourn the meeting. Meeting was adjourned at 10:00 a.m. Submitted January 1, 2013 by: Gertrude Matthews, Secretary Appendix A. - Mahomet Area Kids Endowment Foundation Financial Summary of 12/01/2012
