From: Eileen Alexanderson [mailto: Sent: Wednesday, December 05, 2012 5:14 PM To: Clapp, Ada Subject: foundation I spoke to Ralph Lerner re setting up new Art Foundation yesterday. He recommends a Delaware corporate 'lending foundation' which has a mission statement of lending art to museums. It would definitely be an operating foundation. Leon would therefore get credit for donation of the FMV of the art contributed. Leon could donate several artworks that are presently out on loan and get credit for the charitable donation. At seminar this moming, reps from the Foundation Source also recommended a Delaware Corp. Both said to stay away from a NY Corporation. As you know Jeffrey favored that format also. The intention would not be to set up for a museum just yet, I would think we would potentially transition this foundation or set up a new one if Leon wants to go that route down the road. Comments on trust format instead of a corporate one ranged from That's what the T&E lawyers do" to That's the old fashioned approach". I have not been able to determine though, whether Delaware has the same type of "burden" cited when using a NY corp related to the State Board of Regents.
