The following is a contract
between Arabian Virtual Village, LLC,
having
an address at 2490 Black Rock Turnpike #352, in the town of Fairfield, county of Fairfield and the state of
Connecticut and ______________________________________, registered under
section 501 C 3 of the United States tax code and having an address at
_______________________________________________
Explanation:
Arabian Virtual Village, LLC will
be engaged in the sale of products & services to its virtual
community at avvf.net and having its banner as Arabian Virtual Village
and Friends. From the sale of such products and services, a portion of
the profits, or as agreed on with the businesses providing the services
will be placed in a bank account referred to as the Non-Profit Fund.
This Non-Profit Fund will be under the control of a board independent of
Arabian Virtual Village, LLC. Arabian Virtual Village, LLC will provide
the board with a representative to answer questions.
By the sixth month from starting
business, the Arabian Virtual Village will conduct a voting within its
virtual community in order to allocate the Funds in the Non-Profit Fund
to the various listed non-profits. The listed non-profits will receive a
portion of the Fund that is proportional to the vote they receive.
After the first six months, the
membership can petition the addition of new non-profits that are registered
under Section 501 C 3 by providing a petition signed by 1% of the
associate members.
The duties of the board are to
oversee the implementation of the result of the vote and should not be
held liable for carrying its duties.
The relationship between the
virtual community and the
businesses offering products and services will be clearly listed on the
web site. Also listed will be the relationship between those businesses
and the Non-Profit Fund.
The Non-Profit Fund will be
audited by a Certified Public Accountant semi-annually and the summary
of the results of the audit as it relates to the Non-Profit Fund will
be posted on the web site 2 weeks prior to the scheduled community
voting.
Important Note: The Arabian Virtual Village is
working on setting up a Scholarship Fund under section 501 C 3 for the
benefit of its associate members. Such fund will be included in the list
of Non-Profits to be voted on. Certain business, either by law or
internal bylaws can only contribute to educational funds and might not
consider the Non-Profit Fund as a proper venue. In such cases, the
contributions from such businesses will go directly to the Scholarship
Fund. When voting takes place, if for example, the membership votes 35%
for the Scholarship Fund and its funding from such businesses meets or
exceeds the required 35% then the totality of the Charitable Fund will
be disbursed among the other Non-Profits proportionately. If the funding
from such businesses is less than 35%, only the portion of the
Non-Profit Fund that complements the Scholarship Fund to the 35% level
will be used.
It is also the intent of Arabian
Virtual Village, LLC to enter into contract with five (5) non-profit
organizations that are registered under 501 C 3 during its first six
months in business. Arabian Virtual Village, LLC will make all efforts
possible to select organizations that deal with education, families, and
children. The membership can later, through a petition process, add any non-profit organization as
long as it meets US tax code 501 C 3.
