Clarification of Definition of 'Material Financial Relationship'
- OIF Bylaws Section 3.2 (c)
An Affilliate is any company which, based upon a determination by the Board
of Directors, (i) whose voting equity securities are owned or controlled 50%
or more by, or which owns or controls 50% or more of the voting equity securities
of, a Principal Member, or (ii) which is subject to a material financial relationship
with a Principal Member which results in the control of, or the right to control
or direct policy of, such other entity.
An Affilliate, for as long as it remains affiliated with a Principal Member,
shall only be eligible for Auditing membership. This is to limit voting to
one vote per aggregate entity.
Any company that is not an Affiliate, despite its ownership of 49% or less
of the voting equity securities of a Principal Member, or despite the ownership
of 49% or less of its voting equity securities, as determined by the Board
of Directors, shall be considered a separate entity and shall therefore be
eligible for a Principal Membership.
