<div>Well I wouldn’t wait.. the comments are not that lengthy, although some are substantive, and certainly the few hours you would spend getting up to speed would be most useful to all of us.

<div class="">Thanks Holly,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Good to get all our communications out on the table to ensure we are all working together.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I assume that your teams are also assessing the comments. My understanding is that you were aware, we would be sharing with you all that we have right away, sorry if this was not communicated clearly in your dialogue with Sam on Saturday.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Sam is intending to send you very shortly, a list of items where it is clear that we will need to work with Sidley/Adler to consider whether/how to make revisions to the Bylaws — let’s take our coordination off this list, to ensure we are all
on the same page.

<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">Thanks for your note and for your points on where we are this week. The email that Bruce forwarded was a summary of some of the actions (not all) anticipated this week, excerpted out of a much longer discussion of the final stages of
the process; that we have all been working toward. We didn’t attempt to set out all the assessments that would be going on by staff, by Sidley, by Adler, by the Bylaws coordination group and others who have been so dedicated to this process throughout, like
yourself and the group that you represent in this process.</span></div>
<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">As we are well aware it was expected that this would be a period with very short deadlines in which to provide meaningful analysis of the public comments. Staff’s summary and assessment will be forwarded to the community as soon as
we have completed it. This summary/assessment can be reviewed by the Bylaws Coordination Group (along with Sidley and Adler), and a determination can be made if additional work is needed beyond that. We agree that a call with the Bylaws Coordination Group
would be useful this week.</span></div>
<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">Let’s be certain though, that no one is proposing that we skip over the comments, not take them seriously or not provide bylaws responsive to those comments or with sufficient analysis to allow their approval based upon the community’s
proposals and any new issues raised within those comments. </span></div>
<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">From what we have seen in the comments, Staff’s assessment so far (but we will look to Sidley, Adler, to help assess also) is that -- many of the comments are in line with the proposals or are capable of being resolved in this current
stage of the process. Some of the comments are seeking variance to the proposals, and some of the comments are stressing the importance of WS2 items.</span></div>
<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">Some of the comments provided specific recommended line edits, and those must be carefully considered, to see if the changes are required to enhance the implementation of the proposals or understanding of the Bylaws, or if the language
posted for public comments sufficiently meets the intent of the proposals.</span></div>
<div class="" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size:12pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
<span class="" style="">Accordingly, let’s not give up on the long proposed tight deadlines at this point. Together, let us see if we can get this done, with all due consideration by those necessary to ensure that we are acting consistent with our promises
to the community and to the Commerce to deliver these Bylaws fully reflecting the community’s inputs and request for empowerment and change.</span></div>
