Corporate Name

Saskatoon TechWorks, Inc.

This corporation is a membership corporation, not a charitable corporation.

Board of Directors

See Board of Directors.

The corporation shall have no fewer than 3 and no greater than 7 directors.

We don't need to fully define the role of the board (or have one elected) to incorporate, but we need to set a min/max number. The rest can be defined in the bylaws later.

Classes of Membership

The classes of membership (as far as the articles are concerned) basically describe who can vote on what. For example, if we had a full membership and a (probably cheaper) non-voting membership, that would be two classes. Directors are likely only a separate class if they have veto power or something. Otherwise, they're the same class as members. Guests aren't members of the corporation at all, so they don't count here.

We will have two classes of membership: * Full members are entitled to vote on motions at general meetings. * Non-voting members are not entitled to a vote.

Restrictions of Activities

The activities of the corporation are restricted to providing facilities, social and other like services to members of the corporation and their guests.

Dissolution

In the event that Saskatoon TechWorks ceases operation:

* Any assets will be liquidated. [Remember that leased materials and tools will be returned to the lessees first, as per our equipment lease agreement.] * Any remaining funds to be distributed evenly among full members.

Incorporators

Names and addresses of incorporators here (at least 2 required, but these two should be sufficient)

Ryan Silk 1137 Ave K South Saskatoon, SK S7M 2G4

Andrew Bergman PO box 192 Langham, SK S0K 2L0

<strike>Paul and Lisa Chavady 109-203A Tait Place Saskatoon, SK S7H 5L7</strike>

Location of registered office

109-203A Tait Place Saskatoon, SK S7H 5L7

This has to be someone's address until we get a fixed space. This is the location where all the books and records are kept. A PO box is explicitly not allowed here. A PO box is allowed for the mailing address, but that's a different thing entirely. I'm just going to assume Paul's house for now.

Other Provisions

* A director is required to be a member of the corporation. * The bylaws may not require more than a majority of members to constitute a quorum at a meeting of members. * Except in the case of first bylaws after incorporation, all bylaws shall be made, amended or repealed by the members in general meeting. First bylaws shall be substituted at the first meeting of members and may by general resolution be confirmed, rejected or amended.

Bylaws

See Bylaws. These are also not required to incorporate, but must be ratified at the first meeting of members.
