I think this is fine. I think the only t=eak may be is that we do not apply for EIN as you indicate under #3 but we=do request a banking only purpose EIN to collect the monies for the two parties. This I think is in full compliance w=th rules for disregarded entities not having a tax ID number. I will=ping higher ups to sign off on this and revert. Perhaps NY 70 CAM LL= is best name.

The approach consistent with the regulations is t= use LDB's social security number. 4.&n=sp; The LLC would =ermit the manager to delegate and the LLC further would have officers.&nbs=; These provisions would facilitate the FO in paying for capital improveme=ts. What do you think? If =ou agree, we can establish CAM LLC and further implement the change in CAM= Thanks. Alan Alan S.

Parties agree to make additions to =apital Account. JH is Capital Account Manager (CAM) who can delegate to an= other individual (not entity). CAM has responsibility to pay for improvements. Question re banking/ daily operations. 2 EFTA_R1_01769179 EFTA02588279 We are setting up account with bank. We are requesti=g SS-4 to get EIN number for this account which is banking purpose ONLY.&n=sp; (SS-4 line 10a). US Trust is on board with this. It will facilit=te joint funding of the account to make improvements and comply with the aforementioned agreement. In filling out the SS-4 the legal entity/ individual=requesting the banking purpose account needs to stated. ='d like to use either LDB or NY 70 LLC as the party applying for a b=nking purpose SSN as this will be the name on the banking records (again a banking purpose account only). We could have =H file the 55-4 and have him sign. This would mean the account=name would be under 1H. As for paying for the improvements, the FO will be r=ceiving invoices and paying. JH could delegate responsibility =o the FO to make payments or alternatively JH does not delegate but instea= allows the FO to be signatories on the banking purpose account and to enable payments of improvement invoices after JH si=noff. This makes things complicated if we need JH to sign ever= wire to pay for each improvement. To summarize questions: Do you care if the Capital Account is set up under t=e name of NY 70 LLC? LDB? Can FO pay improvements and if so, does 1H need to d=legate CAM responsibilities? I want to ensure we respect the life interest/ remai=der interest rules so query if the name on the banking purpose account has=any impact on this. I fdoubt but wanted to run by you.
