Hi Roland,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your very generous offer to include the Libertarian
National Committee in your estate planning. This may come in handy
when Bill Redpath is planning our year 2040 ballot access efforts.<br>
<br>
I don't initially see problems with the way you've described your
preference for things to be handled, but I'm asking the Libertarian
National Committee's Employment Policy and Compensation Committee to
analyze the details fully, and to get back to you once their
analysis and recommendations are complete. <br>
<br>
Although it's very generous of you to consider staff bonuses in your
will, and May 15 would certainly be known as Roland Riemers day at
the office, it would not surprise me if the LNC EPCC ended up
advising you not to mention staff bonuses in your will. <br>
<br>
You don't need to wait for the LNC EPCC if you want to get your
estate documentation taken care of right away. Just put things the
way you'd like to see them, with or without mentioning staff
bonuses.<br>
<br>
Details for naming the party in your will:<br>
<br>
Beneficiary: Libertarian National Committee, Inc.<br>
Address: 1444 Duke St., Alexandria, VA 22314<br>
Tax id: 52-1170810<br>
<br>
Thanks, and don't hesitate to contact me or Robert Kraus if we can
be of additional service. <br>

previously stated, I do not like these one time large gifts
included in any year end bonus of staff (unless they had a
large input in securing it). But I also like to give some
recognition to the party working staff. So, I would like
small percent of the yearly take to staff (equally divided)
as a bonus on May 15 of each year. (that being my
birthday).</span></div>

currently has about 13 years to go.</span></div>
