So far, in their absence we can take action already 432 because based on our records, some of our Regional Directors who failed to 433 attend the Executive Council meeting for at least 3 consecutive meetings as a 434 role, it is already subject for replacement, so that the appointment if there will be, 435 will be forwarded to the BOD for confirmation. At this point Mr. President the

436 Regional Director of NCAR, we are still having a hard time coordinating with this 437 administrative region when in so far as ID caravans and other aspects on the 438 update of membership dues of our Brothers and Sisters in NCAR because the 439 Regional leadership refuses to cooperate and participate in the project of the 440 National Leadership and created a problem with its 6 Sections of the National 441 Capital Administrative Region. I would suggest Mr. President that we have to act 442 on NCAR Regional Director, so that we can appoint a new Regional Director who 443 will work with us to further our goals for this Development Year”. He added, “Mr 444 President, we have succession, we have the Deputy Regional Director, your 445 office can appoint once we elevate the Deputy Regional Director as the new 446 Regional Director, we appoint a new Deputy Regional Director, we have to apply 447 succession. 448 449 National President Mike Taha asked NED Reinald Relova if aside from the 450 Regional Director of NCAR if there are other officers who failed to attend. 451 452 NED Reinald Relova answered that so far it is only the NCAR Regional Director 453 who failed to attend the Executive Council Regular meeting for four (4) 454 consecutive times. 455 456 National President Mike Taha instructed the NED Reinald Relova to notify the 457 NCAR Regional Director Edgardo Delmo to explain his consecutive absences to 458 the regular quarterly meeting of the Executive Council. He believed in giving him 459 the due process before dropping the NCAR RD in the roster of the Executive 460 Council officers. However because of his series of absences he deprives his 461 region and the section of his region to be functional. He then suggested to 462 Brother NEVP Roel Fernandez that the NCAR Regional Director should appear 463 in the National Office and to explain. If he will not show up then we automatically 464 elevate the Deputy Regional Director as the new Regional Director as his 465 replacement, then we appoint a new DRD. 466 467 NED Reinald Relova said that regarding the information dissemination and 468 notification about the Executive Council regular meeting schedule, he always 469 called up the NCAR Regional Director and communicate with him as to the 470 schedule but unfortunately the NCAR RD declined due to the reasons that he is 471 busy with his work or there are other commitments on the dates of the meeting. 472 473 Vice President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca commented that as member of the 474 Executive Council we should give him the due process and prayed that we are to 475 consider that every individual are also committed of some other responsibilities.

476 He further said that personally, for the past two executive council regular meeting 477 he was not able to attend the meeting because of his work, he was then the 478 Chief of Police of Pasay City. He further added that due process should be given 479 to this concern officer and collates all minutes of the meeting as attachment to 480 the formal letter to be sent. 481 482 National President Mike Taha thanked Vice President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca. 483 484 National Executive Vice President Roel Fernandez agreed with the Vice 485 President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca in observing due process, he then 486 commented that “in the case of the NCAR Regional Director, this is nothing 487 personal, I think we have already exercise due process. My concern is not the 488 person but the office of the NCAR Regional Director. Isang taon na po tayong 489 nakaupo ni wala pang isang official communication na ginagampanan ang ating 490 Regional Director, doon pa lang sa paga update ng ating membership dues, sa 491 ID Runs wala. Yon lang naman sa akin, hindi lang naman po to sa NCAR but I 492 think we are already setting a bad precedent if we do not act on this now and I 493 believe that the Executive Council concerned officer is well informed on the 494 ruling, so what are we going to do with this Council we have again until the next 495 5th Regular Executive Council meeting, by the way kapag ang Regional Director 496 ay di umattend ng apat (4) na beses ay okay lang. Di ba ang usapan natin dito 497 right from the start, I’ve been in this National Executive Council and Board of 498 Directors for 8 years and ang usapan natin dito ay may existing Board Resolution 499 that 3 consecutive absences ay due for replacement. If we are not going to act 500 on this one, we are setting a bad precedent. Again, I clarify this is nothing 501 personal, this is just the rule, we only have two years to perform and this region 502 NCAR has 6 Sections, ni isang ID Run ay wala and to think that we have this 503 December 16, 2014 and March 02, 2014 celebrations, and it is very greiving that 504 they are not participating in the affairs of the National office, yon lang sa akin Mr. 505 President.” 506 507 National President Mike Taha thanked National Executive Vice President Roel 508 Fernandez. He then asked the NED Reinald Relova if there was an official 509 communication sent to the NCAR RD. 510 511 NED Reinald Relova answered that there was no official letter sent to NCAR 512 Regional Director Edgardo Delmo. The NED said that his communication with the 513 Regional Director was through the phone, he never failed to inform the Regional 514 Director on all the regular schedule of the entire regular executive council 515 meetings.

516 National President Mike Taha thanked the NED and recognized IPNP Jimmy de 517 Castro. 518 519 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro said “I would like to 520 emphasize to my Brothers and Sisters in Alpha Phi Omega that APO and 521 MASON are different entities. If it is an APO concern, then ang batas ng APO ay 522 batas ng APO at dapat masunod, sa akin lang, siguro ay dapat desisyonan ng 523 Executive Council and do the right ruling. The concern officer is my Brother both 524 in APO and MASON, but if my Brother in Mason violated the Code of Bylaws of 525 our Fraternity then he should be removed from his office.” 526 527 Vice President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca said that “APO Mason ako sa puso ko, 528 pero APO lang talaga, Masonry founder, Frank Reed Horton ay Mason na sya 529 bago Mag APO, so mas lamang ang APO. Concern dito is ang batas ng APO. 530 Request ko lang is to have a due process in informing the concern officer. Hindi 531 naman pwedeng palagi na lang mag excuse, gumawa sya ng responsibility at 532 nakakahiya naman na walang ginagawa as RD. APO is APO.” 533 534 National President Mike Taha thanked Vice President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca. 535 He commented that the concern Regional Director should be notified and an 536 official letter should be sent to him. He instructed the NED Reinald Relova in 537 writing the NCAR RD a letter and specify the provisions and the Board 538 resolutions. 539 540 Commissioner Placido Fernandez asked if what explanation we will accept. 541 542 National President Mike Taha said that explanations to be considered are 543 hospitalization due to health conditions and work constraints. 544 545 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro asked Vice President for 546 Alumni Brothers Rodolfo Llorca if it is acceptable in court as evidence those text 547 messages received from the respondent. He then suggested in attaching all 548 those received messages to the formal letter to be sent to the respondent and 549 send the letter through registered mail. 550 551 ARE Permanent Representative Albina Juanitez agreed with Immediate Past 552 National President Jimmy de Castro suggestion and instruction however, she 553 commented that with the 6 sections, NCAR is really a big region and are not 554 cooperating with the national program where in fact our national office is in the

555 capital area.

I have nothing personal against the NCAR RD, it is just that 577 it will create a bad precedent if we will not act on it. 578 579 National President Mike Taha commented that if within a week after the letter 580 had been sent and we don’t receive a reply from the NCAR RD, then we will be 581 appointing a new RD.

We have to have 2 venues. 1989 1990 Brother Renato Gawat answered “I think there are available rooms in the hotel where 1991 we can accommodate for example a 100 person or 500 persons in a separate venue.” 1992 1993 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro asked if the proponents are going 1994 to hire a bus or vans to pick up delegates from the airport to the venue; port to venue 1995 and vice versa. 1996 1997 Brother Renato Gawat answered that they are looking to that option. 1998 1999 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro asked the security of the venue. 2000 2001 Brother REnato Gawat answered that in terms of the security, there is no conflict with 2002 other groups. 2003

2004 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro further asked that what he is 2005 asking is the internal security of the Brothers and Sisters. There should be a security 2006 that will be headed by a Brother inside the venue. 2007 2008 Brother Renato Gawat said that they will take note on that. 2009 2010 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro asked the proponent 2011 representative Brother Renato Gawat if he is in good standing in terms of his 2012 membership? 2013 2014 Brother Renato Gawat answered that he will still be paying his membership dues. 2015 2016 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro thanked BOD Chairman Luis for 2017 giving him the time to ask the proponent. 2018 2019 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes acknowledged SLAR Rosalyn Banagale for questions to 2020 the proponent. 2021 2022 SLAR Regional Representative Rosalyn Banagale commented that she is working in a 2023 hotel; ideally she had the idea in terms of the meals catering arrangement. Php 960.00 2024 per meal per person is so expensive. With the hotel arrangements we cannot even bring 2025 foods inside the venue, if we will, there will be corkage charges for that. She then asked 2026 if there are other options to lower the meal budget. 2027 2028 Brother Renato Gawat answered that he cannot guarantee on that yet but they will be 2029 working on another option. He said that if the venue will be in LANDCON, maybe they 2030 can facilitate for the meals budget. 2031 2032 SLAR Regional Representative Rosalyn Banagale asked if there are possibilities in 2033 lowering the registration fees of the collegiate members since there would be more 2034 number of collegiate members who will be attending the Biennial General Assembly. 2035 2036 Brother Renato Gawat answered that he understands that notation; he said that he will 2037 be working with the rest of the proponents to have options in terms of the food and 2038 registration fees of the collegiate members. And to that note, he further said that they 2039 are planning to have as many as sponsors as they can and will hire event coordinators 2040 to handle the marketing operations. 2041 2042 SLAR Regional Representative Rosalyn Banagale asked if the proponents had 2043 partnership with the local government. 2044 2045 Brother Renato Gawat said that there would be possibilities in getting a partnership with 2046 the local government of Mandaue City; hopefully they can work out on that. 2047 . 2048 SLAR Regional Representative Rosalyn Banagale further asked if the proponent will be 2049 putting up a tent city and provide portalets for the delegates. She said that not all of the

2050 Brothers and Sisters can afford to pay for a hotel with that high priced and expensive 2051 meals. 2052 2053 Brother Renato Gawat answered that it would be possible to put up a tent city and they 2054 will be working in coming up with a proposed cheaper expenses in terms of the 2055 accommodations and food aspect. 2056 2057 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes thanked Sis SLAR SLAR Regional Representative 2058 Rosalyn Banagale and acknowledged NP Mike Taha. 2059 2060 National President Mike Taha commented, “Ang pagkakaintindi ko ngayon na tayo mag 2061 decide. We will not give parameter of your presentation anymore Brod. Kung babalikan 2062 natin yong tanong ni Sis Pholly, doon sa meals pa lang, that is Php 960.00 per meal per 2063 person; A total of Php 2,160.00 for the 3 meals. Ngayon sa dalawang araw, it will cost 2064 you, Php 4, 320.00 for two days for the meals only.Ang propose registration is Php 2065 1000.00, so, sa food pa lang malulugi na kayo ng Php 3,320.00, kung ang delegates ay 2066 1,200, lugi na agad kayo ng Php 3,984,000.00 sa pagkain pa lang plus the venue na 2067 Php 1, 800,000.00 for 3 days. Ang total na lugi ay Php 5, 984,000.00. Maliban dito may 2068 mga dagdag pa na expenses. Ang tanong ko, yong lugi ba iso shoulder nyo? 2069 2070 Brother Renato Gawat answered, “As part of responsibility po.” 2071 2072 National President Mike Taha said, “ No, you have to make it clear, kung ang luging ito 2073 ay, you have the available amount, remember this is your offer, you gave us this offer, 2074 ngayon i analyze natin, kung ito bang offer nyo ay feasible. Ngayon sa tingin ko, this is 2075 not feasible.Tingnan natin, malulugi kayo ng Php 5,784,000.00. Meron ba kayong 2076 pondo na pang tapal dito. Yong straight to the point na sagot Brod, kasi ito na yong offer 2077 nyo. Hindi pwedeng mag antay pa tayo ng other option proposal nyo because the Board 2078 should decide now. Sabi nga kanina wala na tayong ibang time but to decide now kung 2079 sa inyo ba ma award ang bidding or sa iba. So ito ang nakikita ko na malulugi kayo. 2080 Kung meron kayong pera na Php 6,000,000.00 na itapal dito, siguro pupwede, ako ha 2081 personally, I will be in favour sa inyo if you have that 6M na itapal, ngayon with the 2082 proposal you offer siguro kung wala eh hindi feasible ang proposal nyo Brod. Yon lang.” 2083 2084 Brother Renato Gawat said, “That is the worst scenario. We will handle that.” 2085 2086 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida asked the NED Reinald Relova if who 2087 submitted the bid to host the 28th NBGA in Albay Convention. 2088 2089 NED Reinald Relova answered that the first AA who submitted the bid for Cebu was the 2090 APO Metro Cebu AA. During the 3rd NEC & BOD Meeting in Aklan he received a 2091 document from the APO Alpha Mu AA. 2092 2093 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida asked the NED how does APO Alpha Mu 2094 AA came in. 2095

APPROVED 4TH NEC & BOD MINUTES FOR DY JULY 1, 2013-JUNE 30, 2015 Page 49 of 107

2096 NED Reinald Relova answered that the APO Alpha Mu AA had submitted their intent to 2097 bid before the 3rd NEC & BOD Meeting in Aklan. 2098 2099 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida commented, if the General Assembly 2100 approved the APO Metro Cebu AA to host the convention during the last convention in 2101 Legaspi, Albay, and then what happen, why, is it that APO Alpha Mu AA is here. 2102 2103 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented that it is under the bridge now. What we have 2104 here now is a proposal of APO Alpha Mu AA presented before us their intention to bid 2105 as host in the upcoming 28th Biennial General Assembly, let us no longer indulge in 2106 speculation; instead we have now their proposal, for our consideration. So let us just 2107 consider their proposal. Let us just not deal in technical matters rather on whatever 2108 intramurals that may have happened prior to the presentation of their proposal. I hope 2109 that when the Board voted because I will not be voting unless if there is a tie, I hope the 2110 members of the board will not consider that as a factor, in consideration of this proposal. 2111 So, I think that has been enough discussions and questions regarding the proposal. So 2112 we think the representative of Alpha Mu in presenting the case of APO Alpha Mu’s 2113 hosting for the 28th Biennial General Assembly and perhaps proceed with the board 2114 session. The Chairman then proceeded with the determination of the site of the 2015 2115 Biennial General Assembly. He then requested the guests and those who are not 2116 members of the Board to step out in the room, to resolve the matter before the board of 2117 directors. 2118 2119 National President Mike Taha requested for a five minutes break. 2120 2121 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes declared for a five minutes break. 2122 2123 Resumption 2124 2125 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes said, “Before we vote on the question at hand, where do 2126 we conduct our 28th Biennial General Assembly. For the information of the Board you 2127 will recall that we commissioned the Chairman of Ways and Means Commission J. 2128 Ricardo Bautista to conduct a study regarding the proponents’ proposal. The report 2129 submitted by the Chairman of Ways and Means Commission J. Ricardo Bautista is long; 2130 I will just read to you his recommendation. “In view of the foregoing, it is respectfully 2131 recommended the 28th Biennial General Assembly of APO on May 2015 be held in 2132 Dumaguete City. This recommendation is based on the following considerations; first, 2133 shared suitability of venue; spread of which for constituent familiarity, novelty of venue 2134 and members survey result. We cease this opportunity to thank the bidders for their 2135 interest and initiatives in trying to provide a critical proponent to the success of the 28th 2136 Biennial General Assembly. We admire their spirit and commitments in sharing their 2137 talent. Respectfully submitted, Chairman of Ways and Means Commission J. Ricardo 2138 Bautista.” 2139 2140

APPROVED 4TH NEC & BOD MINUTES FOR DY JULY 1, 2013-JUNE 30, 2015 Page 50 of 107

2141 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes said what does shared suitability of the venue means, 2142 according to his report and based on the survey conducted, the novelty and security of 2143 the place is an appropriate venue since the venue is less cost with less destruction for 2144 greater focus on the business. Chairman Luis pointed out, that is one of the comment 2145 that he wanted to emphasize with the presenters, they are opt of showcasing the scenic 2146 spots of their area where in fact this is a negative factor because the tendency of it is to 2147 throw away the delegates on the business at hand. The concern is to conduct the 2148 business of the Biennial General Assembly not to go sightseeing. Proposals such that 2149 are better address to the visitors and non members. He then asked the Board of 2150 Directors if there is a need to go into discussions or to proceed with the voting now. 2151 2152 BOD Members agreed to proceed to votation. 2153 2154 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes asked the Board of Directors members to raise their right 2155 hands for those who are in favour of the Dumaguete hosting. 2156 2157 All BOD Members voted for the Dumaguete hosting. 2158 2159 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented that it is a unanimous decision.

He then suggested in having it a week before the festival. 2178 2179 Commissioner Placido Fernandez said that the Kabulakan Festival in Dumaguete falls 2180 in the 3rd week of the month of May. 2181 2182 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes proposed the dates May 21-24, 2015.

He stressed out it has been a practiced that life members just show 3142 up during the convention without even registering first without knowing that maybe for 3143 the meantime that life member was suspended by the RAC.The other members does 3144 not have the opportunity to disqualify certain life member to dispute in participating in 3145 the general assembly.6 months requirements should also apply in the life members this 3146 is to give concern on the opportunity to examine the qualifications of the life members to 3147 exercise their full right and priviledges of a member in good standing. 3148 3149 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes that the second is the INSTITUTION STRENGTHENING 3150 ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS, he said that most of our recognized alumni associations are 3151 chapter based and community based, we only have few recognized alumni associations 3152 in terms of the profession and institution based. The concept of this institution 3153 strenghthening alumni association is to strengthen and actively encourage the formation 3154 of alumni associations based on profession (i.e., lawyers, engineers, architects, 3155 contractors) and institutions (i.e., public and private offices) will increase the capability 3156 of the organization to effectively implement the four folds of service. 3157 Principles Served 3158 • Leadership.

He 3178 then read the formal resolution: 3179 3180 SERVICE PROGRAMS (2014-2015) BOARD RESOLUTIONS: Electoral Reforms 3181 BOARD RESOLUTION NO. DY 2013-15-______3182 3183 A Resolution Reiterating and Instituting Electoral Reforms in the QualificationS of 3184 Official Delegates and in the Procedure in the Inclusion and Exclusion of Official 3185 Delegates 3186 3187 WHEREAS, the Code of By-Laws provide that the members of the Electoral College are 3188 the official delegates of all chapters and associations (CBL, art. III, sec. 3[c]) and life 3189 members (CBL, art. III, sec. 2[c]). 3190 3191 WHEREAS, Section 2 of Article III of the Code of By-Laws further provides that – 3192 3193 “(a) Official delegates who are members in good standing, having been duly authorized 3194 by any organizational unit in good standing to be its representatives in all the functions 3195 of the General Assembly, and duly registered as such in the records of the Board of 3196 Directors upon compliance with all requirements, which the Chair of the Board of 3197 Directors shall cause to be published at least six (6) months prior to the General 3198 Assembly sessions. Each organizational unit shall be entitled to four (4) official 3199 delegates: Provided, however, that, in case the chapter or association, consisting of 3200 fraternity and sorority components, fails to participate in at least two (2) successive 3201 regular sessions of the General Assembly, the said chapter or association shall be 3202 entitled to only four (4) official delegates.” 3203 3204 WHEREAS, the purpose of the 6-month period is to enable the members to dispute the 3205 fitness of the nominees to act as such official delegates and, hence, automatically 3206 members of the Electoral College, specifically on their status as members in good 3207 standing. 3208 3209 WHEREAS, Life Members are not exempt from the requirement of being members in 3210 good standing in order to exercise the rights and privileges of “official delegates” as they 3211 are likewise required to register although they need not be endorsed by any chapter or 3212 association.

APPROVED 4TH NEC & BOD MINUTES FOR DY JULY 1, 2013-JUNE 30, 2015 Page 75 of 107

3213 3214 WHEREAS, there have been questions raised in the past elections on the qualifications 3215 of members to be official delegates and to be members of the Electoral College. 3216 3217 BE IT RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, That only chapters and 3218 associations in good standing as of six (6) months prior to the General Assembly shall 3219 be allowed to nominate their official delegates and alternates, who are themselves 3220 members in good standing as of the time of their nomination. 3221 3222 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, That Life Members, in 3223 order to be allowed to act as “official delegates” in the General Assembly and members 3224 of the Electoral College should likewise submit their names to the Chair of the Board of 3225 Directors in order to allow the members the right to question their status of members in 3226 good standing. 3227 3228 BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, That all petitions for 3229 inclusion/exclusion of official delegates and/or their alternates, shall be resolved not 3230 later than three (3) months prior to the General Assembly and shall be published in the 3231 official website of the Alpha Phi Omega International (Phils.), Inc.: Provided, That the 3232 resolution of the Regional Adjudicators may be appealed to the Supreme Adjudicatory 3233 Council, whose decision shall be final, and rendered not later than one and a half 3234 months prior to the date of the General Assembly; and, Provided, Finally, That the 3235 nominated substitute official or alternate delegate shall also be a member in good 3236 standing as of six (6) months prior to the General Assembly. 3237 3238 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented that we will no longer allow the voting 3239 delegates in paying their membership dues on the general assembly date. Six (6) 3240 months before the convention they charter should submit their official and alternate 3241 delegates and must see to it that all submitted delegates are all members in good 3242 standing because after all they are all duty bound to pay their dues on or before the 30th 3243 day of each year. Second, for the life members the difference is they may not be 3244 nominated by any chapter or alumni association. In effect he/she should be an official 3245 delegate because only those who have been identified as official delegates in the 3246 General Assembly maybe allowed being members of the Electoral College. There is 3247 confusion, if you will look at our Code of ByLaws; the COMELEC has no authority to 3248 determine who are qualified voters, that is why issuing an ID or allowing the delegates 3249 in paying their dues on the date of the General Aseembly itself is not right. Under our 3250 Code of ByLaws, if you are an official delegate then you are automatic member of the 3251 Electoral College and therefore subject to the requirements of official delegates except 3252 only that they cannot be disqualified because they did not pay their dues but they can 3253 also be member in good standing. 3254 3255 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida asked if the Life members, they 3256 themselves will submit their names to the BOD. 3257

APPROVED 4TH NEC & BOD MINUTES FOR DY JULY 1, 2013-JUNE 30, 2015 Page 76 of 107

3258 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes answered that the life members will be submiiting their 3259 names. 3260 3261 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida thanked BOD Chairman Luis Paredes. 3262 3263 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes stressed that looking on it; the registration actually begins 3264 6 months before the convention. Registration starts at that point because those who 3265 submitted their registration during the General Assembly cannot be done anymore. The 3266 delegates should register 6 months before the General Assembly and therefore once 3267 you register you already exercise the right of a member in good standing. As per our 3268 Code of ByLaws there is no distinction between life member, regularmembers and any 3269 other members in so far as members in good standing is concern, the only difference is 3270 that you cannot declared them as members in good standing because of non payment 3271 of their dues. Second, the life members not need be nominated by a charter or alumni 3272 association. He further said that the purpose of this 6 months period is to give the 3273 membership the chance to see the published lists and Life members should be 3274 subjected the same. 3275 3276 National President Mike Taha commented that for the life members there was no time 3277 frame stated it should be stated that they will be registering 6 months prior to the 3278 General assembly same that of the chapters. 3279 3280 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes acknowledged in including the same of the life members. 3281 3282 National President Mike Taha said that it should also be six months before the general 3283 assembly. 3284 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented in asking the NED to certify the existence of 3285 this Board resolution. 3286 3287 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes said that second point is the INCLUSION and 3288 EXCLUSION. Electoral Reform proposals is that inclusion and exclusion proceeding 3289 obcourse must be file immediately after the publication of the official list of delegates, 3290 official alternates and even the life members. The Regional Adjudicatory Council (RAC) 3291 is obligated to resolve this dispute or proceedings within the period of 3 months prior to 3292 the General Assembly and theresolution of the Regional Adjudicatory Council (RAC) will 3293 be published in the official website for purposes of notifying the members of this 3294 inclusion and exclusion. Again so that there will be transparency, if appealed in the 3295 Supreme Adjudicatory Council (SAC), then the SAC must resolve this appeal not later 3296 than one month before the General Assembly so that during the General Assembly we 3297 will no longer entertain any appeals. The Members should FORMALIZE their 3298 REGISTRATION for their PARTICIPATION. 3299 3300 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said do we envoke participation of the 3301 alumni association because of the suspension of membership which involve findings 3302 from Commission on Membership. 3303

APPROVED 4TH NEC & BOD MINUTES FOR DY JULY 1, 2013-JUNE 30, 2015 Page 77 of 107

3304 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes answered NO. He then reiterate that the difference of a 3305 member not in good standing and a delinquent member. A member not in good 3306 standing is not necessarily delinquent member but a delinquent member may have his 3307 membership suspended or revoke on that basis as being a delinquent member because 3308 a member in good in standing is one who does pay his dues, which means in regular 3309 interpretation, the opposite, when you do not perform your duty like not paying your 3310 dues then you are not a member in good standing. Provision on our Code of ByLaws, a 3311 delinquent member should at least 5 years or more not performing like paying of his 3312 dues. That is only the time you will be declared as delinquent in our Code of ByLaws. It 3313 requires that you should be a member in good standing in order to enjoy the rights and 3314 priviledges of a member. 3315 3316 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida added that member in good standing and 3317 has not been suspended. So, the word “suspension”, it quonotes, a member who is 3318 going to be suspended or expelled must pass through the recommendation of the 3319 Commission on Membership, in that case, the principle of suspension in connection with 3320 good standing, then we should include COME- Commission on Membership. 3321 3322 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes acknowledged NMAR Regional Representative Eric 3323 Cabalida’s suggestion. 3324 3325 Commission on Membership Chairman Edgar Llarena thanked BOD Chairman Luis 3326 Paredes and NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida. He said that technically the 3327 one who determines the membership suspension is the RAC-Regional Adjudicatory 3328 Council although sometimes the prayer of the complainant is suspension of 3329 membership. The Commission do the preliminary investigation but it is the RAC who 3330 determines who are to be suspended. He said that there will be no problem with the 3331 COME- Commission on Membership on this matter. 3332 3333 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes said that for the petition of inclusion and exclusion, there 3334 should be someone who will be filing a petition through the RAC. It means that this is a 3335 matter of evidence or proof.

3892 EXPLANATORY NOTE 3893 Eleven (11) years from now, we will be having 1st Centennial Celebration. As we 3894 grow older, from the time we joined and during our stint in this fraternal organization, we 3895 cannot help but reminisce what have we shared to our organization. We always think of 3896 the services we have done to the community, college, the faculty and the fraternity itself. 3897 Have we lost sight perhaps to evaluate why and who brought us here or at this 3898 chamber? We owe that to the Organizers who paved the way for the creation of 3899 chapters and AA, the very basic reason of our existence, because if not for them we 3900 may have been serving another fraternal organization. Do you know the reason why we 3901 have a strong and vibrant foundation? Because we all founded and based it all on our 3902 principles that was handed to us by our founders, by the organizers and to us as the 3903 end recipients. 3904 What we are pursuing now is the “standards” that is inculcated in our hearts and 3905 minds which hopefully flourish towards the generations to come. Giving or awarding a 3906 life membership to qualified and deserving brother/sisters has already been discussed. 3907 One of the requirements or shall we say strong and powerful conditions is that, if the 3908 applicant is an organizer of a BOU of Alpha Phi Omega, it is automatically considered 3909 and given much heavier weight.. 3910 The question is: since the Resolution, which has been approved eons ago, on 3911 awarding of Life Membership, how many are organizers of a chapter? Let us have a 3912 very concrete comparison to the number of Organizers who were awarded with Life 3913 Membership against the number of BOU’s combine, that result alone is not sufficient on 3914 one (1) organizer against one (1) BOU. 3915 Be that as it may, we still have to consider some factors affecting these non- 3916 conferment to brothers/sisters who are qualified, the strongest reason is they have been 3917 there (creating/organizing the BOU) it is time for me to reap what has been sown. Yet, 3918 some members who benefitted with the creation of the chapter/AA, is focused mostly on 3919 the expansion, services and others, yet they or we failed to consider and look into the 3920 hardships and labor that was selflessly devoted by the concerned organizers with the 3921 end of organizing a chapter/AA. More often than not, they (organizers) had developed 3922 the system/disease/notion of sour-grapping. 3923 For so many years, this honourable chamber had awarded several charters to 3924 the chapter/AA and yet we failed to see or look into the matter on the difficulties and 3925 inconveniences that has been put into establishing one. This chamber past, present 3926 and future has a continual function of awarding/granting/bestowing the creation of a 3927 BOU who happened to petition one, yet we require the organizer/s again to file for 3928 pertinent documents to avail for a life membership. It is quite ironic that we have given 3929 our due only to “Ceasar” and not to “GOD”. We have to tie the link ourselves, that 3930 chapter/AA existed because we owe the hardwork from the organizer/s, and that is now.

3931 The benefits that we are about to reap in having this automatic referral/awarding 3932 is enormous and your imagination will focus mainly in giving due what is for the 3933 organizer and yet there are other errors that has been healed/corrected in the process. 3934 As we are looking back, we can move forward. Forward is to have a better organization, 3935 vibrant leaders, equality among us, corrected history and best of all, we will celebrate 3936 the 100th year and 75th year of our existence with brothers and sisters who contributed 3937 the planting are also being acknowledge as part and parcel on what we are. 3938 3939 BOARD RESOLUTION NO.DY-2013-2015-_____ 3940 A Resolution for the Automatic Processing/Recommendation/Referral of Life 3941 Membership for Organizer/s of the Basic Organization Unit by the BOD and 3942 Creation of Basic BOD’s Oversight Committee for this purpose. 3943 3944 WHEREAS, Article II, Para D of the APO-CBL provides a very broad process on 3945 acquiring life membership and it does not explicitly provide for guidelines as to who are 3946 eligible for Life Membership; 3947 WHEREAS, the basis for the Implementing Guidelines for Life Referral to the 3948 Board of Directors (BOD for brevity) from the Commission on Membership (CoMe for 3949 brevity) is from a Resolution adopted and approved by the previous BODs, that is 3950 available at present at CoMe website at 3951 www.apo.org.ph/come.website/membership/life-membership/life-membership- 3952 guidelines. 3953 WHEREAS, the said Implementing Guidelines incorporated in the CoMe website, 3954 does not specifically mention or detail the “Automatic Awarding/Referral to the BOD” of 3955 applicant, instead it is addressed to “whoever is interested and qualified”. 3956 WHEREAS, the BOD is not in the position to determine who is/are to be awarded 3957 with Life Membership, without an endorsement from CoMe; 3958 3959 WHEREAS, CoMe, as the custodian of directory of membership (Art VII, Para B, 3960 Sub 6D), has no complete list of organizers of all chapters, due to reasons that history 3961 only knows; 3962 WHEREAS, there were quite few members who are Organizers who were not 3963 awarded with Life Membership since then and up until now because of the following 3964 reasons: a) Missing records of history of the chapter / AA they had organized; b) 3965 Records are not available at the National Office and/or CoMe; c) No definite procedure 3966 on how to authenticate a lost/destroyed documents/records pertaining to history of 3967 chapters/AA; d) Organizers from Northern/Southern part of Luzon, separated islands of 3968 Visayas and Mindanao had a hard time in communication especially authentication; e) 3969 Difficulty in gathering documents; f) Previously issued charter to a newly organized 3970 chapter are lost and that the organizers were not given any certificate of recognition or

4189 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented, “You must remember that Board of Directors 4190 is a policy making and approval body. It has to delegate some of its function especially 4191 those preliminary tasks like processing because as a body we cannot process it 4192 because we are basically a policy making body that is why we have to delegate a 4193 portion of our functions. The body want that a commission would recommend to us 4194 because we do not have necessary personnel of expertise to conduct preliminary 4195 investigation of the fitness of a member to confer life membership. In the exercise of our 4196 recommendatory powers to the General Assembly we also have to look into your 4197 reports because we cannot take compliance seeker in the recommendation because 4198 otherwise we will be foreseeking our power to recommend. If you are saying that we 4199 should process, you gave us now the executive powers to do so. The Board do not 4200 have the necessary personnel to conduct investigative report of this matter that is why it 4201 is delegative in the Executive Council through the Commission on Membership”. 4202 4203 Commission on Membership Chairman Edgar Llarena said that he knows that it will be 4204 delegated in the national office and the COME is willing to do it, at least one BOD 4205 member will oversee and the commission is willing to give one commissioner who has 4206 the technical expertise as per our Code of ByLaws. 4207 4208 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes commented, “in that case we will be creating another 4209 office and that is the office of the committee which will assess the Life Membership 4210 applications where in fact based on our Code of ByLaws anything regarding 4211 membership is directed to your commission, whether you like it or not it is your 4212 commission’s responsibility because you have the executive function in so far as 4213 membership is concern”. 4214 4215 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes suggested to the proponent in including it in their 4216 proposed draft in the TWG. 4217 4218 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes proceeded in the next item which is the endorsement of 4219 Life Members of DY 2011-2013 Officers as endorsed by IPNP Jimmy de Castro. 4220 4221 National Executive Vice President Roel Fernandez was recognized by the BOD 4222 Chairman Luis Paredes. 4223 4224 National Executive Vice President Roel Fernandez read the list of the endorsement of 4225 Life Members of DY 2011-2013 Officers as endorsed by IPNP Jimmy de Castro. 4226 4227 Endorsed DY 2011-2013 Officers for the awarding of Life Members by IPNP 4228 Jimmy de Castro 4229 4230 NATIONAL EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Reinald D.

He asked the NED if who us the proponent on the 4319 matter. 4320 4321 4322 Lifting of the Charter Dues of Petitioning Chapter 4323 4324 NED Reinald Relova said that the proponent is NMAR Regional Representative Eric 4325 Cabalida. 4326 4327 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida asked what happens if a petitioning 4328 group applies and they are being charged of paying their dues already. 4329 4330 BOD Chairman Luis PAredes clarified that the group he is referring is a petitioning one 4331 but are being charge of dues. 4332 4333 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said that the charter dues of the 4334 petitioning alumni association must be lifted and must be charged on the time that they 4335 will be applying for their petition. Further he said, “Lead group na nag apply ng charter, 4336 once nag apply sila ulit ngayon at umabot na ng apat na taon babayaran na naman nila, 4337 hindi na sila maka apply, antayin na lang nila na ma kumpleto ang documents.Yong 4338 doon sa COME, bumabalik, nagbabayad na ngayon,yan yong problema”. 4339 4340 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro said that the petitioning group is 4341 seeking for a chapter so they have to pay their dues. Otherwise the petitioning code 4342 awarded to the petitioning group will be void. This petitioning group alone is a 4343 classification of a chapter and are responsible in paying their respective dues. 4344 4345 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida asked if how about the alumni 4346 association. 4347 4348 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro answered still the alumni 4349 association are obliged to pay for their dues. 4350 4351 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said that the problem is we require this 4352 petitioning group to open a bank account and because of this opening the group is 4353 required to submit SEC documents; and they should be in existence for a year and then 4354 are being required to pay their dues even at the start of their petition. 4355 4356 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro stressed that dues that the 4357 prononent is proposing to be lifted are actually the penalty of these petitioning group. 4358 This guideline might serve an encouragement to this group in really pursuing their 4359 petition as fast as they could.

4360 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said, “And that’s the problem there, pag 4361 di sila nag apply. Kunyari doon sa chapter, nag recruit na sila, ano na ang mangyayari 4362 sa bagong pasa”. 4363 4364 National Executive Vice President Roel Fernandez commented if the group is still a 4365 petitioning, and they cannot even pay for their dues, how much more when they will be 4366 a recognized chapter.He asked the proponent if this group can pay their dues then. 4367 4368 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida answered that if the newly petitioning 4369 group have been granted a charter, these newly recognized charters will pay their dues 4370 because they cannot vote and send delegation during concentions. 4371 4372 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro commented that petitioning group 4373 cannot send delegation and even vote or be voted upon. 4374 4375 Commission on Membership Chairman Edgar Llarena said that if that is the proponents 4376 line of reasoning, as early as now, the proponent should encourage this petitioning 4377 group in religiously paying their dues. 4378 4379 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said, “Kung ganun ang sundin natin, 4380 tingnan natin kung yong mga chapters ay mag comply na agad ng 100%, anong 4381 survival nila, ang mangyayari sa kanila ay mawawalan sila ng gana”. 4382 4383 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro asked the proponent if what his 4384 basis is and asked the COME of the detailed history for the last four years if what has 4385 transpired. How many petitioning groups had apply and how many of them were 4386 approved. 4387 4388 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said, “In my opinion, nag apply ng 4389 charter ang petition at kaagad na sinabmit, tama”. 4390 4391 Commission on Membership Chairman Edgar Llarena answered, “Unang proseso, nag 4392 apply ng petitioning code, upon securing this petitioning code, may petitioning fee na 4393 tapos nagbabayad na sila ng dues, kasi kahit petitioning chapter sila, may right na 4394 magpa ID at mag apply ng ID, under jurisdiction na sya ng national office. Hindi sya 4395 makakaboto,hindi naman yong binabayad nila na bumoto eh. Yong alumni ganun din. 4396 Yong sinasabi ni IPNP Jimmy ang AA natatapos agad yan. Mag apply lang yan, comply 4397 if may kulang, resubmit then okay na, kasi usually petitioning AA knows the process and 4398 the COME does not reject, they have to comply within 6 months, if they cannot comply 4399 they had to re apply”. 4400 4401 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said, “The more we compel them, the 4402 more yon bang sinasakal natin sila”. 4403 4404 Commission on Membership Chairman Edgar Llarena said that the COME process the 4405 petition and implement the policies set forth. Board of Directors will decide. He further

4406 said, “ That two years na lang to comply for the chapter petition, para sa akin that’s a 4407 policy na ginawa ng Board.Basta yong tanong ni IPNP Jimmy de Castro, we do what we 4408 are to do. Sa Collegiate agree ako na magbayad na dahil nag ID na sila. Sa Alumni, sa 4409 experienced naming, hindi tumatagal ang petition ng AA, 6 months nga ang billis noon. 4410 Pag nag lapse nag re apply lang sila at alam na ng AA ang gagawin nila and they are 4411 willing to do that. Kasi gusto nilang magka charter talaga so based on experienced, ang 4412 AA hindi nagtatagal ang petition”. 4413 4414 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes asked for last comment on the matter. 4415 4416 Immediate Past National President Jimmy de Castro explained the two year approved 4417 policy for the petitioning chapters, “Brother Eric we found out na nagkaroon na ng 4418 petitioning code or number ang isang petitioning group at pag nagka ID na hindi na nila 4419 inaasikaso kasi nga may ID na sila. Yong naunang petitioning group ay happy na sila 4420 kasi may ID na sila, so, nawawalan sila ng interest to push their petition ng chapter, that 4421 is why we limit it to two years. Dahil may petitioning code na eh okay lang kahit 10 years 4422 na eh di pa din tapos ang pagpepetition. There must be a limit of the time para 4423 magkaroon sila ng charter, we should push the petitioning members to work on their 4424 document. Di ba? Yan yong reason kung bakit ginawa ang resolution na iyan”. He then 4425 thanked the BOD Chairman Luis Paredes. 4426 4427 Vice President for Alumni Rodolfo Llorca said that in addition to Immediate Past 4428 National President Jimmy de Castro, “petitioner’s sila kaya they had to sacrifice. Doon 4429 pa lang na hindi sila magbayad then paano sila magkaroon ng motivation. E hindi nila 4430 na comply sa COME, Nasa motivation ng petitioner kung gusto talaga nilang magka 4431 chapter”. 4432 4433 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes asked the proponent if he wants to divide the house. 4434 4435 NMAR Regional Representative Eric Cabalida said that he will be submitting a position 4436 paper on the matter. 4437 4438 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes proceeded with the next item in the agenda. 4439 4440 4441 Administrative Region of Europe- Regional Adjudicatory Concil Appointment 4442 Confirmation 4443 4444 BOD Chairman Luis Paredes asked NED Reinald Relova who are the members for 4445 confirmation. 4446 4447 NED Reinald Relova said that the Regional Adjudicatory Council appointed officers of 4448 Administrative Region of Europe that are subject for confirmation of the Board of 4449 Directors is following: 4450 ARE Regional Adjudicatory Council Bro Allan Altamero 4451 Associate Adjudicator Section 1 Bro Mark Santos
