[Ofa_boardplus] Process for selecting At Large Directors

[Gilad Shainer]

Paul,

I thought we agreed that the process of the bylaws modification process will be:
*       A series of proposals for amending the Bylaws are discussed and refined in the XWG
*       Each proposed amendment in the form of a written motion (Voteable) is ratified by vote of the BoD
*       Draft of amended Bylaws is circulated to Promoters for 30 day review
*       Comments are incorporated by the BoD
*       Final draft is adopted by the BoD

The item of adding 2 directors is part of this process. I assume based on the agreed process, that we want to complete the bylaws change process, have the new bylaws approved by the BoD, and then act according to it. I don't think we should act according to partial changes (that are not yet part of the bylaws) without closing on the big scope first.

Attached are some slides we should discuss at next Thursday's XWG meeting pertaining to the nomination and election of At Large Directors.  Recall that during a previous Board meeting we voted to create such Director positions, but intentionally left the mechanics of doing so for later.  That is the topic of this slide deck.
Regards,
