Pursuant to SectiOll 71' of Chapter 180 of the Massachusetts

General Law, The Beth Israel Hospital Association ("Beth Israel")

hereby petitions the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

("State Secretary") for approval and aeceptance of the Restated

Articles of Organization of Beth Israel attached hereto.

Beth Israel, incorporated on December 6, 1915 pursuant to

Chapter 125 of the Revised Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,

is one of the leading non-profit corporations in the Commonwealth

in the.field of providing medical and hospital services and

carrying on ancillary educational, philanthropic and scientific

activities. As such, it has attracted a large amount of community

and state-wide support from indivJduals and business and social

organi~ations ·which have become members of Beth Israel in conjunc­

tion with such support. As a resul~, the current By-Laws of Beth

Israel enumerate the following qualific.ations for membership:

l. all persons paying regular dues in such amount as fixed by the Board of Trustees;

2. all persons who are regularly enr?lled members of the Combined.Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Boston and who contribute not less thar $100 per year thAreto 1 · ·

3. such of the officers, trustees, directors ?r. members of organizations aff iliat~d with the Corporation as shall be designated ';y the Doard of Trustees from time to time;

4. all persons who shall be elected as members of this Corporation by the Board of Trustees upon

•

.,

t11e payment of a life membership fee, if any, in su~h amount as shall from time to time be flxed by. said Board.

These requirements fer membership make it possible for, and have.

resulted in, a ·very. large numbe;;: of members of Beth Israel. It

has been estimated that there are over 10,000 members by virtue

of the second qualification alone (contribution of at least

$100 to the Combined Jewish Philanthropies). Such a large member­

ship makes it impossible for practical purposes ever to assemble

or obtain the written concurrence of two-thirds of their

number on any issue (the By-Laws of necessity provide that a

quorum for the transaction. of business at any meeting of the

members shall consist of fifty members). For example, membership

attendance at the 1975, 1974 and 1973 annual meetings was,

respectively, 4 70, 532 and 310 me.mbers. Therefore, Beth

Israel is unable to com).>ly with the requirements of Chapter 180,

Section 7 with regard. to two-thirds me~~ership approval of a

restatement of its Articles of Organization.

·Beth .Israel· desires the adoption of the attached ·restatement

of its Articles of Organization·at this time part1cularly because

it wishes· to obtain the. advantage of the modern corporate powers

granted to non-profit corporations by the current proVi$ions of

•_, Chapter 180. Beth Israel's Articles of Organizo~ion, drafted and

filed pursuant to R. L. Chaptar 125, do not set forth any powers

provisions, and the B.oard of Trustees of Beth Israel feel that it

ie particularly important today, when a modern hospital carries

out a wide range of diversified functions and activities, for

·'•,

•

(.,

the Articles of Org;iniz;ition specifically to sot for.th and give

to the corporation as extensive a scope of powel'S as is permitted

by law. In addition, Beth Inael furthe" .desir"s to have the

powel's and purposes set forth in its Articles of Organization evi­

dence compliance with those Internal Revenue Code provisions regu­

lating non-profit corporations. Thus, the chief reason for the filing

of the attached Restated Ar.ticles of Organization is the adoption

of Article 4 thereof, The provisions of the remaining Articles

are intended to restat~ current operating provisions of Beth

Israel, as found either in its Articles of organization or By-

Laws.

Because of the very large n\lmber of members, it ic not

feasible to list them as a part of this petition. Attached

hereto as Schedule A is a libt of the current Officers and Board

of Trustees of. Beth Israel.

The undersigned President of Beth Israel has been authorized

to execute and file this petition and the attached Restated

Articles of Organization by a duly authorized vote of Beth Israel's

Board of Trustees.

:rn Wl'.TNESS WHEREOF an<l un<ler the penalties of per:\ury,

I have hereto signed my name this 9th day· of June ' 19:76.
