Return Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 2: BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE (BMI) SENDS A LETTER TO EACH ORGANIZATION THAT STATES THAT BY SIGNING AND DEPOSITING THE CHECK THEY ARE CONFIRMING THAT THEY ARE A 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION. FOR LARGER GRANTS, BMI ASKS THE ORGANIZATIONS TO SIGN A DONOR OBJECTIVE LETTER THAT STATES THE SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE DISTRIBUTION. THE BMI BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS FINAL APPROVAL FOR ANY DISTRIBUTIONS OVER $500,000. BATTELLE ENERGY ALLIANCE LLC, BATTELLE NATIONAL BIODEFENSE INSTITUTE LLC, BROOKHAVEN SCIENCE ASSOCIATES LLC, AND UT-BATTELLE LLC EACH HAVE THEIR OWN APPROACH TO MAKING SURE THAT GRANTS ARE ONLY MADE TO PROPER OBJECTS OF CHARITY.
SUPPLEMENTAL EXPLANATION BMI WAS CREATED PURSUANT TO THE WILL OF GORDON BATTELLE AS AN OHIO NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION, SPECIFICALLY AS AN OHIO INCORPORATED CHARITABLE TRUST. AS AN INCORPORATED CHARITABLE TRUST, BMI IS SUBJECT TO THE GENERAL SUPERVISION OF THE OHIO ATTORNEY GENERAL AND TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF OHIO NONPROFIT CORPORATION STATUTES. THE ORIGINAL PURPOSE OF BMI WAS TO CONDUCT RESEARCH IN METALLURGY OF COAL, IRON, STEEL AND ZINC AND TO MAKE DISTRIBUTIONS TO OTHER CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS. PURSUANT TO AN AGREEMENT WITH THE OHIO ATTORNEY GENERAL, BMI MAKES ANNUAL DISTRIBUTIONS FOR CHARITABLE PURPOSES EQUAL TO AT LEAST 20% OF ITS FINANCIAL STATEMENT NET INCOME, BUT NOT LESS THAN ONE MILLION DOLLARS. ON AUGUST 11, 2005 THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF BATTELLE ADOPTED A RESOLUTION THAT ESTABLISHED A MINIMUM CHARITABLE DISTRIBUTION GOAL OF $3,000,000. IN AUGUST 2005, BMI ESTABLISHED A DONOR ADVISED FUND, THE BATTELLE FOUNDATION FUND (THE FUND), UNDER THE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION, A 501(C)(3) PUBLIC CHARITY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION THAT IS LEGALLY AND FINANCIALLY SEPARATE FROM BMI. A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF BMI'S CHARITABLE DISTRIBUTIONS ARE MADE TO THE FUND. BMI RECOMMENDS DISTRIBUTIONS FROM THE FUND TO QUALIFYING RECIPIENTS; HOWEVER, THE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION MAKES FINAL DECISIONS ON THE ACTUAL DISTRIBUTIONS. THE FUNDS TRANSFERRED FROM BMI TO THE FUND HAVE NO POSSIBILITY OF REVERSION TO BMI. DISTRIBUTIONS TO THE FUND FULFILL THE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE WILL OF GORDON BATTELLE AND THE AGREEMENT WITH THE OHIO ATTORNEY GENERAL.
