<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I just wanted to add a comment from the peanut gallery. There is
an interesting article here -
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.wagenmakerlaw.com/blog/getting-started-factoring-state-nonprofit-law-corporate-development">http://www.wagenmakerlaw.com/blog/getting-started-factoring-state-nonprofit-law-corporate-development</a>
- about some considerations to make when choosing a state for
incorporation.</p>
<p>One point of consideration regards meeting participation and what
kind of technology is considered permissible for remote meeting
attendance. Given that almost all EOB meetings are done remotely,
it would be good to check what these requirements are for
Missouri.</p>

<div>Different states may have different annual filing
requirements. I know that we at NOBLE also have to file two
reports with Massachusetts, one listing our officers and
contact info and another to retain our charitable status.
Might be helpful to know what Missouri requirements would be.<br>

I don't have any objections to incorporating in
Missouri. Are there any benefits or disadvantages of
incorporating in one state or another? I assume if
we were a for-profit we'd be more concerned about
taxation differences from one state to another, but
I don't know that there are big differences between
states for non-profits.<br>

<div>I just got off the phone with Donna
Bacon and she can have their lawyers
start the process of setting up a
corporation and non-profit. She said
that MOBIUS can work with us to handle
contracts, etc. for the 2019 conference
if there is not yet an Evergreen
non-profit to sign off on contracts.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Her lawyers can incorporate in
Missouri. I was wondering if the board
is ok with this or would prefer we
incorporate in a different state? Do we
need a longer more detailed discussion
about where to incorporate.<br>
