Questions marked with a * are required

Yes

Other

* To encourage participation, should Pool members be "charged" a 2% annual fee, which will be credited back to them if they are active (i.e., attend at least 5 MABA meetings a year and lead or participate in at least one due diligence a year, as well as discussions and votes)?

Yes - must participate in at least 75% of discussions and votes

Yes - must participate in at least 90% of discussions and votes

Yes - Other suggested participation %

* Since it is not likely that all members will participate in all votes, when voting on whether or not to invest in a company, should we consider the majority of votes cast (as opposed to the majority of members and entities in the pool)?

Yes

* Should we allow those who vote "Yes" for an investment the option (not required) to further specify the investment level, i.e., "Yes-for Minimum" or "Yes-for Maximum" (in addition to a plain "Yes" vote)? If implemented, we will require three more "Yes" votes (of any type) than "No" votes to make the minimum investment, and a majority margin of "Yes" or "Yes-for Maximum" (over "No" votes) to make the maximum investment. For example, if we implement Q5, and consider the majority of votes cast (not of members), and, if, for example, 18 votes are cast, then we would need at least 10 "Yes", or "Yes-for Maximum" votes more than "No" votes to make the maximum investment.
