          works in mutual solidarity 
          with the moral values, such as
            integrity,
          as required by the United Nations to
            promote
          business and friendly cooperation

          Appointment
            and dismissal of foundation directors
          Serving on the board are persons on a personal or business title, who
          have recorded in writing a business cooperation agreement with the
          foundation (strategic partnerships) or indirectly by tactical
          partnerships, provided that the latter person with a tactical
          partnership contract is directly and chiefly related to the mission of
          the Foundation. For example, a content
          sales company that sells its
            products to international TV stations.  
          
          When the business cooperation agreement with a Holding So Speak!...
          related company expires, then automatically board membership expires.
          
          Companies with a business cooperation agreement can appoint a
          representative, that being an employer with an employment contract.
          
          The position of chairman rotates every 2 years.
          
          Board members are considered to be sincere and determined to strive in
          mutual solidarity to promote the moral values, such as - unlimited -
          the integrity (do what you say and say what you do), as required by
          the United Nations with regard to business and friendly relations.
          
          The Board may hold meetings in person as well as by using ICT
          resources.
          
          The Board can not and may not decide about:
          ●Changing formules of allocations;
            and/or 
          ●Changing of the priority-shares of
            Casting International; and/or
          ●Decrease of the exclusivity of the
            contracts within the Holding. 
          ●Changing of the tactical standards
            & policy-nota’s in cases of skills & drills & training
            syllabi; and/or 
          ●Changing of the golden rules
          The above limitations in
            decision-making powers also apply to the participants and investors.
            
          
          All decisions of the Board shall be taken by oral voting in which case
          half the votes plus 1 is considered a majority vote. 
          Each Board member is entitled to cast 1 vote per round of voting. In
          the case of a tie, the Chairman casts a 2nd vote to decide the plus 1.
          This 2nd vote should always be aimed at: 
          1) priority safety-of production personnel, 
          2) the criterion of usefulness for the Foundation.
          (Ad. 1 has a higher priority than ad
            2. In relation to the requirements of CI insurance risk policy and
            ‘the rules of engagement’ as drawn by the UN.)
          As a result it may occur that the two votes cast by the Chairman can
          differ substantively.
          
          Board members can also vote long distance by phone, email, text or per
          video conference.
          In the event of great distance, or technical communication disruptions
          the vote of the relevant board member with regard to the decision in
          hand to be taken can be postponed for max. 7 x 24 hours.
          
          Any decision made involving a value of more than €. 2.000 (two
          thousand Euro’s) or in the case of a change in this rule, has to be
          preceded by a brief written description/definition of the decision to
          be made and sent with a receipt to each Board member.
          The formulation must be such that the vote can only be 'yes' or 'no'.
          Each decision made thereafter has to be motivated in writing with the
          above description/definition through representation of the votes cast
          (who and how many “yes” or “no” votes).
          Each voter may submit without obligation an (extra) recommendation of
          no more than 10 lines.
          
          The Foundation is located in Amsterdam and registered at the Chamber
          of Commerce there.
          If the foundation is dissolved, the money for which no contractual
          obligation has been determined to spend on will go to a Charity,
          according to the last decision made by the Board.
          
          The Board is supported administratively, secretarially and in
          communication by its internships at CISU. BV
