gifts andgrants for general educational programs and scholarships, youth programs, parks and
and administer
recreation, environmentalprograms rams and all other non-arts related programs and services. As such, the Board
g
approved an IRS designation nation change along with a name change, and is now called the Oro Valley Community
Foundation. Meanwhile, it has expanded its board membership to include the following eleven (11) board

Oro Valley Endowment Fund
Statement of Operating Structures and Policies
Introduction & Purpose:
The purpose of this statement is to formalize an operating framework for the Oro Valley
Endowment Fund. The Board of Directors has established these policies in order to
provide a context for action and decision-making. The Board retains the authority to
amend, alter or otherwise change these policies at any time that it so chooses.
This Statement does not supercede or alter the policies of the Oro Valley Endowment
Fund as established in its By-laws. Rather, it is an extension of the Endowment Fund's
Mission Statement and corporate structures, creating a context for action by leadership,
volunteers and staff.
The Board recognizes that the initial goal of the Oro Valley Endowment Fund is to act as
the operational fund for the Greater Oro Valley Arts Council (GOVAC) programs. To
that end, GOVAC should continue to focus on annual giving, grants and event
sponsorships, along with individual, outright gifts. The Oro Valley Endowment Fund
will manage funds received from the Town of Oro Valley's 1% for Public Art Program,
cultivate major, planned gifts and administer estate plans. In addition, it will create an
endowment fund that will nurture GOVAC and other community programs over time.
As other community needs emerge, or as donors designate specific charitable programs
within the Greater Oro Valley community, the Endowment Fund will extend its support
to these identified concerns. Such concerns might include the Oro Valley Public Library
or other civic organizations. These same policies will apply to such areas of activities
unless otherwise specified by the Board of Directors.
Budgeting Process:
The Oro Valley Endowment Fund's fiscal year shall commence on July 1 and end on
June 30. It is the intent of the Board to complete a proposed budget no later than June 1.
Final action will be taken to approve or amend the budget no later than July 1.
For initial budgeting purposes, the Board's focused support of the Greater Oro Valley
Arts Council is to be directed to operating expenses that will expand upon the operating
funds provided by the Town of Oro Valley.
Definition of Endowment and Interim Board Guidelines:
During the initial stages of operation, all funds coming into the Oro Valley Endowment
Fund will be treated as "operating expenses". Awards can be made as part of the overall
operating expenses of the Fund. However, such awards must be planned for and included
G:\Danielle\Endowment Fund\OV Statement of Operating Structures and Policies.doc - 1 -
in the annual budget. The initial target level for annual awards is 6% of operating
income.
There is one exception to this policy of treating gifts as operating income. If a donor
makes a gift that is specifically designated as an endowment gift for either specific or
general purposes, it shall be treated as "permanent endowment". Only the income
derived from such a gift can be used for the purpose designated. The corpus must remain
on an investment basis.
Over time, if the Board of Directors determines that there is sufficient operating capital
available, it can create a separate area of endowment, that of"board-designated
endowment". The endowment can be used as a long-term sinking fund for fulfillment of
the organization's mission. The corpus however, can be invaded if the Board so
designates.
In order to build long-term assets, the Board of Directors may restrict the use of the
income generated by this Board designated endowment. If and when such a fund is
established, the Board anticipates that no more than 6% of this designated endowment's
corpus will be used for grants and awards. To facilitate planning and reduce volatility in
awards, "annual" income is defined as the average amount of income generated by this
assigned endowment over the previous three years.
The Board of Directors does reserve the right to eventually establish its own"permanent
endowment"but this is an extremely long-term issue for consideration, as there would
need to be significant assets in the"board-designated" category first.
Investment Policy:
The Oro Valley Endowment Fund has established a formal investment policy which has
been approved by its Board of Directors.
Gift Acceptance Policy:
The Oro Valley Endowment Fund will be pleased to work with donors, their advisors and
consultants in establishing gifts. Staff and leadership are prepared to work closely in
defining and formalizing a gift.
The Endowment Fund has the capacity and ability to establish the following gifts with a
minimum value as shown:
Major Gifts for Endowment Any Amount
Bequests and Appropriate Language for Documents Any Amount
Charitable Gift Annuities $10,000
Charitable Remainder Annuity Trusts $50,000
Charitable Remainder Unitrusts $50,000
G:\Danielle\Endowment Fund\OV Statement of Operating Structures and Policies.doc - 2 -
The Board of Directors retains the right to accept gifts that fall below the minimum
requirements. This must be decided on a case-by-case basis.
Acceptable gifts generally include but are not limited to:
Cash
Liquid assets such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds (excluding "penny" stocks,
restricted stock, stock options or restricted stocks per SEC Rule 144).
Real estate gifts must be readily marketable. In the case of any gifts of real estate, the
Endowment Fund requires that a valid appraisal be made in advance of the gift. Such
appraisal must take into consideration any potential environmental hazards. In cases
where there may be possible problems, the Endowment Fund requires an environmental
study be made before it will accept responsibility as Trustee.
The Fund can act as Trustee. The Board retains the right to determine if it is willing to act
in the capacity of Trustee of an individual case-by-case basis. In all situations, the Board
seeks to conform to both the "prudent investor" guidelines and the Philanthropy
Protection Act of 1996 in order to protect its liability.
The Endowment Fund is not willing to accept the following:
Pooled Income Funds
Donor Advised Funds
Donor Restricted Funds where the restrictions are not enforceable under IRS Guidelines
Awarding of Grants/Funding of Projects:
The Board of Directors has established a basic funding request form for organizations
seeking grants or awards. Within its budgeted parameters, the Board will make awards,
as funds are available.
Greater Oro Valley arts organizations other than the Greater Oro Valley Arts Council can
submit funding requests. However, under the GOVAC Master Operating Agreement
(MOA) established between GOVAC and the Town, such requests will be referred to a
review committee that will include at least one representative of GOVAC.
As permanent endowment funds for specific purposes are established, the Board of
Directors retains the authority to make awards based upon its normal application process.
This authority is retained so long as in its evaluation of these requests, the Board acts in
accordance with the terms of the original gift that it accepted responsibility for.
Strategic Planning:
The Board of Directors acknowledges the critical importance of strategic planning.
Through the development and adaptation of this operating statement, it has established a
G:\Danielle\Endowment Fund\OV Statement of Operating Structures and Policies.doc - 3 -
framework for the future. This framework is open to ongoing evaluation and evolution as
the Oro Valley Endowment Fund seeks to expand and grow as an absolute benefit to the
Greater Oro Valley community and its citizens.
That is the mission of the Oro Valley Endowment Fund's Board of Directors in the years
ahead.

To: Board members, Oro Valley Community Foundation
From: Chuck Walton
Following are Bylaws suggested for the new corporation now
named Oro Valley Community Foundation Two. The 'Two' will
be dropped when the transfer of assets from the old to new
corporation is completed.
Please review the Bylaws, the enclosed "Gift Acceptance
Policy" and "Fundraising, Policies and Guidelines" .
Let me know whether you have any suggestions, revisions,
comments, etc. in advance of our meeting on August 20 when
they will be presented to the Board for approval.
As a part of the filing for the exemption letter for the
newly formed corporation, IRS requires brief bios showing
the "qualifications" of directors. As an example, legal
counsel believes that in my case, the following is
sufficient:
Retired. Former Vice President, General Counsel,
Corporate Secretary of two public companies.
Former Board member and President, Sun city
Vistoso Community Foundation.
Please send me a brief bio (20 to 25 words or less) via e-
mail:

contribute to improving and sustaining the quality of life, primarily for the citizens of Oro
Valley.
I. Purpose of Policies and Guidelines
The Board of Directors of the Foundation and its staff solicit current and deferred gifts from
individuals, corporations, and foundations to secure the future growth and success of the
Foundation. These policies and guidelines govern the acceptance of gifts by the Foundation and
provide guidance to prospective donors and their advisors when making gifts to the Foundation.
The provisions of these policies shall apply to all gifts received by Foundation for any of its
programs or services.

The Foundation shall seek the advice of legal counsel in matters relating to acceptance of gifts
when appropriate. Review by counsel is recommended for:
• Closely held stock transfers that are subject to restrictions or buy-sell agreements;
• Documents naming the Foundation as Trustee;
• Gifts involving contracts, such as bargain sales or other documents requiring the

• Other instances in which use of counsel is deemed appropriate by the Gift
Acceptance Committee.
II. Conflict of Interest
The Foundation will urge all prospective donors to seek the assistance of personal legal and
financial advisors in matters relating to their gifts and the resulting tax and estate planning
consequences.
PHX/1932682.1 1
III. Restrictions on Gifts
The Foundation will accept unrestricted gifts, and gifts for specific programs and purposes,
provided that such gifts are not inconsistent with its stated mission, purposes, and priorities. The
Foundation will not accept gifts that are too restrictive in purpose. Gifts that are too restrictive
are those that violate the terms of the corporate charter, gifts that are too difficult to administer,
or gifts that are for purposes outside the mission of the Foundation. All final decisions on the
restrictive nature of a gift, and its acceptance or refusal, shall be made by the Foundation's Gift
Acceptance Committee.
IV. The Gift Acceptance Committee
The Gift Acceptance Committee shall consist of:
• The President of the Foundation
• The Executive Director of the Foundation
• The Treasurer of Foundation
• Such other members as appointed by the President of the Foundation
The Gift Acceptance Committee is charged with the responsibility of reviewing all gifts made to
Foundation, properly screening and accepting those gifts, and making recommendations to the
i Board on gift acceptance issues when appropriate.
V. Types of Gifts. The following gifts are acceptable:
• Cash
• Tangible Personal Property
• Securities
• Real Estate

examined in light of the following criteria:
• Does the property fulfill the mission of the Foundation?
• Is the property marketable?
• Are there any undue restrictions on the use, display, or sale of the property?
• Are there any carrying costs for the property?
The final determination on the acceptance of other tangible property gifts shall be made by the
Gift Acceptance Committee of the Foundation.
3. Securities. The Foundation can accept both publicly traded securities and closely held
securities.
4. Publicly Traded Securities. Marketable securities may be transferred to an account
maintained at one or more brokerage firms or delivered physically with the transferor's signature
or stock power attached. As a general rule, all marketable securities shall be sold upon receipt
unless otherwise directed by the Investment Committee. In some cases marketable securities
may be restricted by applicable securities laws; in such instance the final determination on the
acceptance of the restricted securities shall be made by the Gift Acceptance Committee of the
Foundation.
5. Closely Held Securities. Closely held securities, which include not only debt and equity
positions in non-publicly traded companies but also interests in LLPs and LLCs or other
ownership forms, can be accepted subject to the approval of the Gift Acceptance Committee of
Foundation. However, gifts must be reviewed prior to acceptance to determine that:
• there are no restrictions on the security that would prevent the Foundation from
ultimately converting those assets to cash;
• the security is marketable; and
PHX/1932682.1 3
• the security will not generate any undesirable tax consequences for the
Foundation.
If potential problems arise on initial review of the security, further review and
recommendation by an outside professional may be sought before making a final decision on
acceptance of the gift. The final determination on the acceptance of closely held securities shall
be made by the Gift Acceptance Committee of the Foundation and legal counsel when necessary.
Every effort will be made to sell non-marketable securities as quickly as possible.
6. Real Estate. Gifts of real estate may include developed property, undeveloped property,
or gifts subject to a prior life interest. Prior to acceptance of real estate, the Foundation shall
require an initial environmental review of the property to ensure that the property has no
environmental damage. In the event that the initial inspection reveals a potential problem, the
Foundation shall retain a qualified inspection firm to conduct an environmental audit. The cost
of the environmental audit shall generally be an expense of the donor.
When appropriate, a title binder shall be obtained by the Foundation prior to the
acceptance of the real property gift. The cost of this title binder shall generally be an expense of
the donor.
Prior to acceptance of the real property, the gift shall by approved by the Gift Acceptance
Committee of the Foundation and by the Foundation's legal counsel. Criteria for acceptance of
the property shall include:
• Is the property useful for the purposes of the Foundation?
• Is the property marketable?
• Are there any restrictions, reservations, easements, or other limitations associated
with the property?
• Are there carrying costs, which may include insurance, property taxes, mortgages,
or notes, etc., associated with the property?
• Does the environmental audit reflect that the property is not damaged?

personal residence, farm, or vacation property subject to the provisions of paragraph 4 above.
The donor or other occupants may continue to occupy the real property for the duration of the
stated life. At the death of the donor, the Foundation may use the property or reduce it to cash.
Where the Foundation receives a gift of a remainder interest, expenses for maintenance, real
estate taxes, and any property indebtedness are to be paid by the donor or primary beneficiary.

interests, when appropriate. Prior to acceptance of an oil and gas interest, the gift shall be
approved by the Gift Acceptance Committee, and if necessary, by the Foundation's legal counsel.

TOWN OF ORO VALLEY
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION STUDY SESSION - October 10, 2007
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR & TOWN COUNCIL
FROM: Philip C. Saletta, P.E., Water Utility Director
SUBJECT: Presentation and update on Northwest Water Providers and Planning for the Delivery of
Central Arizona Project Water
SUMMARY: The Northwest Water Providers (NWWP) consists of four entities: Flowing Wells
Imgation District, Metropolitan Domestic Water Improvement District, the Town of Marana and the
Town of Oro Valley. The Town of Oro Valley has a Memorandum of Understanding with the other
NWWP that was approved by Council Resolution No. (R)06-35 on May 17, 2006 to cooperate in the
planning of renewable water resources and specifically the development of our CAP Water. The
concept is to build a joint project that will deliver the allocation of CAP Water that each entity has
under its subcontract with the Central Arizona Water Conservation District and the United States
Bureau of Reclamation.
The NWWP recently completed a study entitled "Northwest CAP Water System Cost Estimate and
Alternatives Review Study"by Carollo Engineers for the development of Central Project Water. This
study developed cost estimates for water treatment alternatives and a proposed pipeline alignment for
CAP Water delivery. There was an Intergovernmental Agreement approved by Council Resolution
(R)07-13 on January 17, 2007 to cost share in this study. Cost information from this study was used to
prepare a financial analysis that calculated debt service based upon the amount of CAP Water that
would be delivered in the future to each of the NW Water Providers. This financial analysis was
performed by Stone & Youngberg.
The presentation will review the results of the study and financial analysis and also discuss the possible
options for governance and the next steps to proceed with the planning for the development of our CAP
Water.

Scenario

Partnership Option
Special Authority or District
▪ New Entity created to oversee facilities with its own board,financing ability,etc.
▪ New or amending legislation would be required,which is a challenge
• Customized to meet Partners needs but whole new bureaucracy could take on a
life of its own
IGA—Non-Profit Corporation
. Establish a non-profit corporation to own and operate facilities with
representation from each member
. Similar to special district/authority but easier to create
. Duplicates powers each member already has—each partner enters contract with
Corporation
. Example—Valley Metro Rail
IGA—Joint Exercise of Power Agreement
. One entity operates facilities for benefit of all
. Agreement outlines each members'rights and cost share
. Straightforward, Uses existing powers of members,no new entity to create handler
. Example—91St Ave Wastewater Treatment Facility; New Mesa, Gilbert,

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
C-PATH AND VENTANA MEDICAL SYSTEMS TO COLLABORATE ON DEVELOPING
STANDARDIZED EVALUATION FOR COMPANION DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AND TARGETED
CANCER THERAPIES
Tucson, Arizona, October 10, 2007—The Critical Path Institute (C-Path) and Ventana Medical Systems,
Inc. (Ventana) (NASDAQ: VMSI) today released additional information about C-Path's $2.1 million grant
from Science Foundation Arizona (SFAz) to fund a collaboration project with the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI)to develop a standard testing and evaluation
process for companion diagnostics and their associated targeted cancer therapies.
Currently, there is no proven development pathway for FDA approval of the necessary companion
diagnostic tests and their associated targeted therapies. The goal of this collaboration is to establish the
performance standards that would serve as the model for future FDA co-submissions of these companion
diagnostic tests and their targeted drug therapies. With the SFAz grant, C-Path and Ventana will work
closely with the FDA and NCI to apply these standards to one of Ventana's in-process companion
diagnostic tests for lung cancer.
Gary J. Kelloff, Senior Scientist at the National Cancer Institute said, "We applaud the collaboration
among the Science Foundation Arizona, The Critical Path Institute and Ventana Medical Systems on the
important project of creating a standardized evaluation process for diagnostic tests. The results of this
work will complement the anticipated collaborative project with the NCI."
C-Path's Chief Scientific Officer and Principal Investigator on this initiative, Jeffrey Cossman, MD, said,
"The award from Science Foundation Arizona will fund an important step toward making the next
generation of important patient care solutions a reality. The ultimate goal of the project is to guide the
choice of targeted therapy so that patients receive the most effective treatments." President and CEO
Raymond Woosley, MD, PhD, added, "This is extremely important work, and we are fortunate to have
Ventana, a global leader in cancer diagnostics, as our partner."
Christopher Gleeson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ventana, commented, "Ventana's
collaboration with C-Path furthers our commitment to personalized medicine and our view that companion
diagnostics will increasingly become a key factor in the development and administration of many new
cancer therapies."
