2 Committee Charters Explanation of Revisions

3 Committee Charter Revision Project At its meeting in January 2007, the IFTA, Inc. Board of Trustees reviewed all of the IFTA Committee Charters The Board determined that there should be more consistency in the committee charters regarding responsibilities (where appropriate), membership, term limits and vacancies

4 Committee Responsibilities Added to Charters maintaining a committee member rotation chart, recruiting members and maintaining a list of potential committee members, making recommendations to the Board to fill committee vacancies; and maintaining the IFTA Best Practices Guide (APC, AC, LEC)

5 Membership Provisions Revised To ensure selection of chair was consistent with the provisions of the IFTA, Inc. Bylaws To ensure selection of committee members was consistent with the provisions of the IFTA, Inc. Bylaws To allow the committees to establish the number of members and the number from each region

6 Changes to Term Limit Provisions Term limits of committee members were changed to be consistent with term limits prescribed for the Board of Trustees in the IFTA, Inc. Bylaws (three consecutive 2-year terms) Committee chairs and vice chairs may serve no more than one two-year term in those positions

7 More Changes to Term Limit Provisions The term limit of a member serving as chair or vice-chair will automatically extend, if necessary, to the end of the term of service as chair or vice-chair An exception to the term limit may be granted by the Board A committee member having completed three (3) two-year consecutive terms may serve again on the APC if a complete two-year term has passed following that committee member’s previous service

8 Terms APC November 1 – October 31 Audit Committee February 1 – January 31 All other committees January 1 – December 31

9 Exceptions Industry Advisory Committee The term limits are applicable only to the IAC Steering Committee and not to the other IAC committee members – this was at the request of the IAC to ensure participation on the committee Attorneys’ Section The members of the Attorneys’ Section and the Steering Committee have requested additional time to review the proposed changes and make recommendations. The Board will review suggestions in October

10 Vacancies Provisions Should the chair vacate the position prior to end of a full two-year term, the vice-chair shall assume the chair a new vice-chair will be selected by the committee Both the new chair and vice-chair shall serve the unexpired term of his or her predecessor.
