what asset trust?
New Non-Membership Public Charity
Self-Perpetuating Public Board with BMGF or Bill Controlled Subsid=ary
=/span>
BMGF c=eates new Washington state nonprofit corporation to qualify as a public cha=ity with the IRS
("NewCo"); NewCo would have an independent= board of directors (or could have a minority of BMGF board members).
A= a public charity, NewCo can sponsor DAFs.
NewCo creates new limited liability company subsidi=ry. Though wholly-owned by NewCo, the LLC would be
manager-managed and BMGF would serve as the manager. The LLC would hold all funds don=ted to NewCo that are
allocated to BMGF silos.
NewCo h=lds, invests, disburses, reports on, and otherwise administers donor advise= funds.
LLC ho=ds, invests, disburses, reports on, and otherwise administers direct donati=ns or allocations of funds
from the DAFs with respect to BMGF silos.
Primary Benefits:&nb=p; Separates BMGF from administration of DAFs; DAF investments not aggregated with
BMGF/=ill for securities law purposes.
Primary Challenges:&=bsp; Potential for LLC level investments to be aggregated with BMGF/Bill for sec=rities law
purposes; identifying potential board members; potential for dis=greement between operation of NewCo and LLC and
removal of BMGF as LLC mana=er; requires staffing and establishing its own procedures for administration of DAFs and
BGMF silos.</=:p>

Following up on our discussion Weds, below is a description of one o= the structural scenarios we are
considering. This is clearly a work i= progress and your input at this point would be very helpful. This scenario
represents a structure with the h=ghest degree of control for the foundation. A key question : Would th= 10-12
potential clients you have in mind be comfortable with this approach=
Key Objectives:
• Create a private donor vehicle alternative to a private fou=dation that will attract substantial sums to
solve global inequities that i= hosted by a trusted organization with deep expertise in managing large, multi-faceted
philanthropic investments in a strategic a=d measureable way
• Provide maximum tax efficiency for donors and minimize impa=t on foundation/asset trust payout and
excise tax (for these reasons, all o=tions presented involve a public charity and do not include gifts directly or indirectly
to the foundation or the asset trust)<=span>
• Accommodate donor-advised funds, but structure for BMGF con=rol over disbursement and
management of funds for select foundation strateg=es (our "silos")
New Memb=rship Public Charity
BMGF or Bill and Melinda Controlling Members
=/span>
BMGF c=eates new Washington state nonprofit corporation to qualify as a public cha=ity with the IRS ("NewCo"). As a
public charity, NewC= can sponsor DAFs.
NewCo h=s two classes of membership: BMGF/B&M will hold the membership in=erests with voting rights (controlling
interest) and other foundations or donors could be added as nonvoting members to provide a greater connecti=n to the
organization for those who are interested.
BMGF/B=amp;M, as the voting member, has the right to appoint/remove all or a major=ty of the board of directors.
BMGF/B&M could choose to appoint BMGF personnel or independent directors (or a mix). Rights co=Id also include (i)
approving the appointment of individuals to certain key=management positions of NewCo; and (ii) approving the annual
budget. B=GF could make annual contributions to NewCo.

Primary Benefits:&nb=p; Maximum control over all aspects of the entity; high level of control allows for mo=e
streamlined governance; can give donors/others advisory privileges for ov=rall entity, not just the donor advised funds;
easiest structure to guide i=s development and interaction with BMGF programs and to get programs invested in
supporting with their ex=ertise
Primary Challenges:&=bsp; Time to create a new legal entity and seek IRS approval; aggregated securit=es reporting with
BMGF/B&M; appeal of a captive entity to potential don=rs; potential reputational risks associated with "too much
influenc="; members do not usually have fiduciary duties, but control always creates potential risk; requires staffing and
es=ablishing its own procedures for administration of DAFs and BGMF silos
