Two things he asked the incoming governors to look at: last year they removed from the Policy and Procedures Manual a sentence that allowed the District Governor to approve the club s form to be certified delegates that had not been sent to the office before the convention started and had to bring the form to the convention, he recommends this please be reinstated. The reason why is members show up and haven t the knowledge that for what ever reason the form was not there. We need to let the governors have the opportunity to make that exception. P&P section He said congratulations to 4-C5 for bidding the 2019 convention in Sacramento. The second thing is he recommends the Council create an ad hoc committee out of this multiple who has experience to negotiate with hotels for the convention and knows the legal contracts. We have a ton of talent in the multiple and the Convention Management committee is not in charge for getting bids for conventions, only helping those folks getting the information to bid. PDG John Ruiz indicated that there were 441 registrants after all the bills were paid they grossed a surplus of $21, and split the first $5000, plus to the District and MD4 s cut was $13, LRP Exhibit L CC Rob introduced Lion Dennis Kramer for PDG Ron Hurd, Chair.

They will still be available to all the districts to assist them in their long range and strategic planning. They strongly suggest that the districts look at their committees and what they are doing and begin to move in that direction. We have what can be best described as an embarrassment of resources to assist you. This year the committee has gone to the institutes to present to the new LIons. Based on the evaluation he s read it has been very successful. They look forward to hearing from them and serving them.

PCC Liz indicated that the team completed 2 successful leadership institutes in January and March. There were 33 graduates at both events. She thanked the team member PDG Ken Ibarra and presenters, IPDG Manny Sanchez, PDG Buck Larson GMT coordinator who brought his special kind of enthusiasm, CC Rob Manning and DG Bob Stewart who she later presented with a KK Fukushima Pin. She also thanked 4 Lions for their help to make the institutes a success: PDG Barry Fredenburg, PDG Marty Van Zant, Lion Alice Faye Pugh and Lion Cheri Caldera. She indicated that after reviewing her report on the Institutes, LCI Learning & Development Programs Coordinator, Sheila Adams commented that we are doing a fantastic job. The team has had successful conference calls and will continue to hold them monthly. The funding from LCI will not be a guarantee, but she will keep everyone informed. She asked the Governors to approve IPDG Manny Sanchez to be an MD4 Global Leadership Team member. She gave special thank you to DG Nick McNicolas who gave her great feedback and inspiration.

PDG Pat thanked EA Cass and PDG Kaz for their invaluable assistance in doing the review for the She indicated that Cass has many hats but suggests she closes the books sooner so that she can do the review sooner when she has the time and for the governors to make better decisions. One of the reasons the books can t be closed is because there are members who don t turn in their submissions in the current year. From a year-end perspective with the increase in dues the Multiple is in good shape. She indicated she missed the Multiple and would like to be on a committee in the future. CC Rob introduced Lion Becky Stewart Special Chairperson. Chair Becky thanked the Governors for their participation in Diabetes Awareness especially DG Bhee Donoghue 4-L3 who has led the multiple in projects.

14 LIONS CLUBS INTERNATIONAL REPORT Multiple District 4 Council of Governors Joint Meeting EXHIBIT A.1 June 9, 2018 First of all, I want to congratulate every District Governor and their teams for the job they have done in bringing service to their communities this year. While the Multiple District has not had the growth we have experienced in previous years, service has been wonderful. While membership in MD4 has been lagging, worldwide membership continues to grow. And as a spur toward growing our membership even more, once again as a part of the Centennial Celebration, the new member entrance fee of $35 has been waived for the period of June 7 through June 30. While these new members will still be charged dues, this can be an incentive for you to invite family and friends to join the fellowship of Lions. And, there is still time for you to submit the club charter paperwork to start a new club before the end of the year. At the recent International Board of Directors meeting held in Miami, the Board took action to add Myanmar as the 214th country in the Lions Worldwide Family. And Mexico City was approved as the International Convention site for There are also going to be some constitutional issues on the ballot. But those are merely minor housekeeping adjustments, which will have little effect on our clubs. A new initiative will be launched in Las Vegas and that is the New Voices program. The objective of this will be to explore and encourage possibilities for bringing more gender parity to our association. A team of women is being assembled to lead this initiative. And I am pleased to share with you that PCC Mary Rynearson has been invited to be - and has accepted - one of four leaders of this initiative in the United States. We will learn more about this at the International Convention. But I think that we can all agree that PCC Mary will be a wonderful leader and organizer of this initiative. At the International Convention in Las Vegas, the host committee is in the final stages of preparation. A big question this year is the International Parade. Because of the heat in Las Vegas during the day, the parade has been shortened and will step off at 8:30 a.m. There will also be transportation to and from the MGM Grand for those who are going to march in the parade. There will also be plenty of water stations throughout the parade route. And, since this is always such a colorful and joyful event, in spite of the heat, I am encouraging everyone to go to the parade and enjoy it. As everyone is aware, the International Board of Directors will be holding their Fall meeting in Ojai. This will take place October at the Ojai Valley Inn. The host committee is continuing to work on putting together the Host Night dinner/reception. And while we had hoped to have information about that at this meeting, securing a site for that event is proving difficult given the limited facilities in the Ojai area. I am pleased to share with you that DGE Ken Blackwood will be coordinating the greeters at Los Angeles International Airport where most of the Board Members and Lions International staff will be flying into. We will know more about that in August when the final travel plans are secured. Then, following the Board Meeting, the Board Members will have an extension tour planned of the Los Angeles/Long Beach area on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, October First, they will be driven

15 LIONS CLUBS INTERNATIONAL REPORT EXHIBIT A.2 from Ojai to Irwindale to visit the Float Barn where they will be able to see the Lions Clubs International Float that will be well under way at that time. Then they will go to City of Hope for lunch and a tour of the facility including a visit to the Lions Family Center. After that they will go to Long Beach where they will be staying. Friday, plans are under way for a Kids Sight event that is being organized by PID Larry Dicus. And on Saturday, Lion Ron Copley is organizing a Special Olympics softball tournament where the Board Members can participate with the Special Olympians. So, the week will be eventful and memorable for the Board of Directors and anyone else who will be able to be there. Many of you are also aware that MD4 has submitted a bid to host the USA/Canada Lions Leadership forum in September The bid package was submitted in December. And in May, the site inspection team for the Forum came to Long Beach to see the venues and review the plans that have been made. PID Bill Iannacone, PID Larry Dicus and I were able to accompany them throughout the inspection tour. And I am pleased to share with you that the team was very impressed with the planning and with the venues. They will also be visiting the other sites who have submitted bids - York, Pennsylvania and Calgary, Alberta. The final site selection decision will be made at the USA/Canada Forum in Columbus this Fall. Should the bid come to Long Beach, it would be the first time ever that the Forum will be held in California. Looking ahead to the new year, I want to admonish the DGE's to please be aware of the announcement of the criteria for requesting Presidential and Leadership Medals for your spring conventions. This is something that is going to be ed to you in late summer. Please give this serious thought. And PLEASE get the nomination forms submitted to me no later than January 15, I must submit all the MD4 nomination forms at the same time. So, if I am waiting for one District Governor to submit, it will delay the submission of all the nominations for the entire Multiple District. I will need to review them all and then submit them to Lions Clubs International no later than the middle of February for the International President to review and approve them. There have been times when I have had to wait. And even then, I did not receive submissions from all the District Governors. As a result, some districts did not receive any medals. I do realize that not every DG will want to submit nominations. And if you will not be submitting a nomination, please let me know so that I will not be waiting for your paperwork to come in. Finally, because several of the DGE's have given me the dates for their conventions next Spring, I have started the process of inviting International Directors to your conventions. Since the springtime is a very popular time for conventions around the country, I do like to secure Directors as early as possible. And I have been able to invite for several districts already. If you haven't given me the dates for your conventions, please get them to me as soon as possible so that I can get the invitations out before Directors calendars are already full. Once more, thank you for all you have done this past year. And with the excitement of the new year ahead, I am very optimistic about what lies ahead for Multiple District Four this coming year.

16 EXHIBIT B.1 Multiple District Four Lions Clubs International 129 Los Aguajes Avenue, Santa Barbara, CA Phone: Fax: To the Council of Governors; Joint Council of Governor meeting, Visalia, CA June 8-10, 2018 Financial and Office Report June 9, 2018 I d like to thank CC Rob for his patience and integrity. He s a real stand up guy. A very compassionate and sensitive soul. And by no means does sensitive mean week. It has been a pleasure to work with him and his lovely wife Lucy; who doesn t love Lucy? I love Lucy. The position of Council Chair is not a showy notch on someone s achievement list. It s a job, a responsibility, challenge really for someone with the wisdom and foresight to handle anything that comes up and to help shape and guide the Lions of California. Each Council Chair has had their own style and abilities and attention span and that is what make this multiple valuable. I think the key is for all of you to be on the same page and that is accomplished with communication; transparent, honest, and thoughtful. Remember it is better to listen to all before taking a stand. I d like to personally welcome the Second Vice District Governors to the fold. It will be as wonderful of a journey as you make it. A word of advise: believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see. ;) Financial Report Financials provided to the Council are as of June 1, 2018 for the MD-4 Fiscal year. I have provided Governors with a club dues aging report to date. You will see in the reports that many of the committees did not use their budgets. The Aging Per Capita Tax (unpaid Club dues) Reports are 3 ways; MD4 only, Sub District only then both together. The later is the one you want to refer to when collecting the dues. PDG Kazuyoshi will explain the investments and any other questions you might have about MD4 financials. He will be conducting a training for the Vice Governors after lunch today. General Reimbursement Policy All Governors Elect and Vice Governors Elect, required committee members, as well as select DGs who have not been refunded by MD4, may submit a Rules of Reimbursement form with the hotel receipt, host meal receipt and flight receipt or mileage printout for reimbursement. The forms are by the big yellow box along with a stapler and envelopes and direct deposit forms. Expense Claim Form budgets. Expense form are available for committee members who need reimbursements from their LCIcon Reimbursements: The DGs are gifted with a reimbursement for the LCI convention. Respective of the rules; 5 nights lodging, flight or mileage, which ever is less, and up to 2 meals a day with receipts. There s a cap of 13I need the itemized receipts. I need to write the checks before the end of the fiscal year, so please submit this as soon as you can. Don t put it off. Meeting minutes are on the MD4 website under member recourses. The governors have the Fall, Mid- Winter/MD4con, the Vice have the last meeting and there is a copy in the sign-in book if any wants to see them (DO NOT TAKE please). Badges and Crests: I had the jacket crests ordered for the PDGs, DGEs, Vice DGs, IPCC, and CC, which have not arrived, so when they do, I will have to mail them to you all.

17 EXHIBIT B.2 Environmental Photo The photos submitted are being displayed. The winning photo is a Landscape of Carson Peak June Lake and is photographed by Joe Skaff of the Sonora Lions Club, District 4-A1. The judges were online judges, Mr. Christopher Potter, Mr. Mike Eliason, Mr. Roger Marcoux and Mr. Clovis Johnson IIII. As we enter the new year there are a few things that come up real fast. There will be a calendar in the directory and online, but I would like to ask all the Lions to help out the Governors by paying particular attention to these items The Organizational COG meeting, the first meeting, is always the first weekend in August and this one will be at the Red Lion in Redding 4-C1: DG Marianne will be telling us more about that. At this first meeting we hold the Committee Workshop, where all the committees, except the youth exchange program committee (because they re busy) get together and plan their actions for the year. I hope they will bring it to the cause to expand on their plan and seek input. They can keep their plans in the Dropbox if they like, which will aid the full committee and council chair as the year goes by. Most everyone is expected to be there and it looks like the very capable hands in 4-C1 have planned a very thoughtful event. I m looking forward to hearing more about that from DG Marianne. The meal form is available here and online. Also, at this meeting you ll be holding the MD4 Scrapbook Contest, which will be displayed and judged. The Partners of the Vice Governors usually handle the judging, but I m sure the new CC Partner will keep us informed of that part. Some years ago the council did approve digital format. Additionally, the Student Speaker Contest Topic will be determined. So anyone with a topic idea is encouraged to submit it. Lion Perry Lynn will be collecting those and I hope we will have a link on the MD4 website to accommodate that. Packet orders need to be submitted by October 1, so if the districts could put this in there announcements, it would really help; club participation is declining. Kindness Matters is the theme of the upcoming Peace Poster and Essay Contest. Those kits have been on sale at LCI for months The deadline to order the kit is October 1. I hope the governor teams will promote this as well. On a side note, in Santa Barbara on Memorial Day Weekend each year at the Mission is an event called I Madonnari, it s a free Italian street painting festival (chalk drawings). There are sponsors, musical entertainment, a market where vendors sell food. Coincidentally, one of the drawings was named Kindness Matters and it had nothing to do with Lions. I saw that Rotary had sponsored a drawing and their name was displayed in two place as a sponsor. I m just saying How are you marketing Lions? There are many ways. In the past the Districts sent out press releases announcing their new Governor does this happen now? The Fall meeting will be at the Santa Maria Radisson, hosted by 4-C6 and 4-A3. At this meeting any MD4 Convention ballot items need to be discussed and approved to make it to the ballot. Its usually a light meeting and may include Halloween costumes. Academy Awards Nominations will be submitted in November. This item is under discussion by the Governors. Then in December: As the holidays near everyone is busy, but the District Peace Poster and Essay winners will be must to the MD4 Office where the final contest will take place. MD4 Excellence Award submissions are due by December 31 to the MD4 office and Presidential Medal Nominations to PID Howard Hudson. Date TBD. And that is the tip of the iceberg so to speak. Respectfully submitted, Cass Cara MD-4 Executive Administrator

18 TO: MD4 Council of Governors FROM: PCC Roger Powell, MD4 LCIF Coordinator RE: LCIF Report - June 2018 EXHIBIT C.1 Clearing Up Appointment Confusion First, I am pleased & honored that I have again been reappointed to the position of your MD4 LCIF Coordinator for the term. Six years ago LCIF changed the procedure for the appointment of Multiple District Coordinators. Previously that appointment had been left to the MD Councils of Governors. The change was to place the appointments under the LCI President &the LCIF Chairman. Confusion appears to continue among some here in MD4 who mistakenly maintain that the appointment remains at the pleasure of the COG, even though the change has repeatedly been published & reviewed in my reports & supported in person three years ago by PID Dana Biggs. Here is the definitive language from the LCIF web site. From licf.org. - Multiple District Coordinators "The LCIF Multiple District Coordinator serves as an ambassador for LCIF in all aspects, including fundraising, promotion, training and education about LCIF's grants and programs. This three-year position was approved by the Board of Trustees as part of the long-term LCIF development strategy. These individuals are appointed by the Lions Clubs International President and the Lions Clubs International Foundation Chairperson. The District Coordinators are then appointed by the LCIF Chairperson in consultation with the Multiple District Coordinator." [Emphasis added] This year's letter of appointment is now on file at the Santa Barbara office. Note also that the District Coordinators are appointed based on my recommendation to the LCI President & LCIF Chairperson. I have consistently consulted with DG's & DGE's before sending in a final list of recommendations. I truly hope that this resolves the confusion once & for all! FYI: 1. The LCIF Chairperson is automatically the Past International President. 2. This past year, for reasons not made clear to me, as your Multiple District LCIF Coordinator I have been excluded from training sessions such as the two Leadership Training Institutes. Both the current LCI President & the LCIF Chairperson are aware of this breach of International's LCIF program and, like me, look forward to its remedy in the coming year. 3. The education/training components regarding LCIF are crucial now more than ever as changes continue to be made to the Foundation's operations, especially in the area of grants. MD4 leaders need to keep abreast of these changes in order to assist districts & clubs in applying for LCIF assistance for projects & with receiving funds under the "Sharing Program." Role of LCIF Area Vice Leader This position is new for the coming three years of the major fundraising campaign described below. I was pleased to learn that PDG Gary Wong (4-C3) has been selected for this position. We have known one another since he was VDG in & continued to work together through the time I was Council Chair for his COG in Incidentally, that group has held an annual reunion almost every year since, so besides seeing one another at COG meetings & conventions, we have definitely kept in touch. Working with the LCIF Area Leader, the Area Vice Leader's duties include an emphasis on facilitating the success of the fundraising campaign in the multiple districts assigned to him/her. PDG Gary's appointment was made by International Campaign Chairperson PIP Dr. Jitsuhiro Yamada & Campaign Vice Chairperson PIP J. Frank Moore. While PDG Gary certainly supported my reappointment, this position is not a direct part of the MD Coordinator selection decision. He & I have already briefly discussed coordinating our efforts, & he immediately offered to assist in our MD's fundraising in any way I might request. New Fundraising Campaign LCIF is initiating a new & very ambitious fundraising campaign titled "Campaign 100: Empowering Service." The goal is to raise $300 million between now and the 2021 international convention. A consultant has been hired, so you can no doubt expect plenty of messages directly from LCIF about this effort throughout the next three years. MD4 on the Way to Another Banner Year: As of the most recent contribution reports, our MD4 Lions have responded to meet & grow closer to our goal of $550,000 for by giving over $515,000 by the end of April. We have seven districts where District Coordinators & Governors have already qualified for the LCIF Chairman's Bronze Medal. To achieve this award, the district must have raised 10% more than the previous year & contributed at least $30,000. They are 4-C3, C4, C6, L1, L2, L4, & L6. When the medals arrive, I expect to arrange to come to the districts to present them. Districts A1 & L6 received this award last year. To date we have one 100% participation district for this year. Congratulations 4-L4! A final report on our successes will come to the Council in August. Melvin Jones Breakfast in San Diego: On the Sunday of the MD4 convention in San Diego in February, we held our second Melvin Jones LCIF breakfast where, with the assistance of Past Int'l President/Past LCIF Chairman Sid Scruggs, outstanding clubs & districts were recognized & new Melvin Jones and Progressive Melvin Jones Fellowships were awarded. Last year ( ) 33 MD4 clubs and Districts A2 & L5 achieved 100% participation, an awesome effort! Heartfelt thanks to Governor Neal Seafelt, Convention Chair PDG John Ruiz and LCIF District Coordinator PDG Scott Leslie for making this event possible. GIVING IS GOOD!

At the same time, we have been preparing for an exciting new fundraising campaign that will increase impact in our current service areas; fight the global diabetes crisis; and expand our focus areas to widen our impact worldwide. Campaign 100: LCIF Empowering Service will be more ambitious than anything we have previously undertaken, with a minimum goal of raising US$300 million between now and the 2021 International Convention. This effort will transform our foundation for its next fifty years, through the support we will receive from Lions, and the new service we will make possible. Our success will depend on dedicated, visionary leadership throughout the world and this is why we are reaching out to you today. Because of your unique qualifications, your exceptional record of leadership, and the esteem in which you are held by your fellow Lions, we wish to appoint you to serve as an LCIF Multiple District Coordinator for a three-year term.

20 We thank you for your consideration of this responsibility, and hope you will accept the role and join us in this global effort.

Please also contact us with questions regarding any of the duties or measurements of success detailed in the full position description.

This essential training session will cover the mission of LCIF; central campaign themes and messages; goals and benchmarks; effective fundraising practices; measures of success; grant opportunities; and tools and resources you will need to effectively lead the campaign in your multiple district. Again, we thank you in advance for your dedication and leadership. The next three years of activity will be of a broader scale and a deeper impact than anything we have conducted before and our success will depend on your efforts. You have our full confidence and we have no doubts that together we can and will succeed. We will be in touch with you again in the weeks ahead with updates and next steps. We look forward to working with you on what is sure to be a powerful and transformative campaign. Thank you.

22 EXHIBIT D California Lions Foundation an IRC 501(c)(3) Corporation # To: MD4 Council of Governors (COG) and CLF Board of Directors From: Gilbert Smith, President, California Lions Foundation (CLF) Subject: Status Report to COG Date: June 9, 2018 The California Lions Foundation (CLF) has recently surpassed $145,000 in donations, a great milestone for CLF. Additionally about $7,800 in designated donations that have already been disbursed for the Kidsight program. Thanks to the generosity of the Council of Governors and the California Lions and clubs, CLF is well on its way to the established funding goal of $250,000 in order to begin providing grants to California Lions clubs, which should commence in the Lions year. As you know, the California Lions Foundation (CLF) was created to provide matching grants to California Lions Clubs for humanitarian, vision, environmental, disaster relief, and other projects to better serve our California communities. These matching financial grants will be available to clubs and districts to meet various needs and projects in their respective communities. The dollar range of CLF grants will be focused on projects from $500 to $10,000, which do not qualify for support from other Lions foundations. A CLF grant will also be able to be combined with a LCIF grant for larger projects. CLF is a great vehicle to help to Lions Clubs meet our community needs in California. All donations to CLF will be provided back to the Lions Clubs of California as matching project grants or as restricted charity project funds. As a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit corporation, CLF also accepts tax deductable donations for approved charity projects of individual Lions Clubs. CLF then provides the designated donations back to the club for use of their approved project. CLF wishes to acknowledge the support of the many Lions, Clubs and Districts for becoming 'Founding Members' of CLF. CLF has received one Corporate donation of $5,000, but we need to greatly expand this area to obtain additional corporate and company support. CLF is in the last stages of conducting its raffle for a beautiful jeweled pendant created and donated by PDG Alberto Montes de Oca. The pendant is 14K white gold with diamonds, blue sapphires, rubies, blue topaz and garnet and has an estimated retail value of about $10,000. Raffle tickets may be purchased for $20 each from CLF directors and all proceeds will go solely into the administrative fund at CLF. Tickets are still available. The drawing will be held July 1, 2018 during the California breakfast in Las Vegas at the LCI convention. Thanks again for all your support from inception to initial funding of CLF. PDG Gilbert Smith

In addition, there is also the All Fellows lapel pin that is given to those who hold all four (4) of the Foundation Fellowships, and a second All Fellows lapel pin is also available. The SSF display will be set-up on Saturday for our Final Contest. Anyone who has all four of the Fellowships and does not have an All Fellows pin, please contact me at the Foundation office and one will be sent to you. I am proud to announce that, so far this Lions year, the following Lions were or will be awarded All Fellows Lapel pins: IPDG Barbara Chamberlain 4-C6, El Cajon Valley Host Lions Club 4-L6, Lion Andrea De Guzman 4- L3, Lion Tony Forchette 4-L6, Lion Violy Sioson 4-L3, IPDG Grace Joe 4-L1, and Lion Michael Perryman 4-L5. Congratulations also to IPDG Rod Mercado 4-C4 who recently became a second All Fellows. The Foundation launched a program twelve (12) years ago called our Supporter Banner Patch and Year Chevron Program. Districts, Clubs and individuals who contribute $100.00, or more annually (other than for Fellowships) receive a patch or year chevron. This has proven to be a very successful fundraising tool! To date 119 of the Al Ohrmund Supporter Awards have been received by Lions in MD-4. This handsome six (6) inch collector s plate with stand can be obtained with a donation of $ A brass plate is affixed to the back of the plate with the donor s requested inscription. A priority for the Foundation is to continue to revitalize the Bequest Club. Members of this special Club are Lions or individuals who name the Foundation as a benefactor in their will or trust. This can be accomplished by simply informing the Foundation in writing that this has occurred. No amount needs to be mentioned. If you have already completed a will or trust naming the Foundation, please let us know so that we can express our appreciation with the pin. PDG Chris Ohrmund 4-L2 became a member this year.

24 Again a special word of appreciation to all of the District Governors and Vice District Governors (First and Second) who have named the Foundation to receive donations when they visit Clubs or other Districts. Thank you! The contributions can be used towards Fellowships. Let me know if you want me to keep a tally for you. Now more than ever, your help is needed if we wish to continue the awarding of scholarships in the MD-4 Student Speakers Contest Program, which was started eighty-one (81) years ago, we must raise the awareness of the funds needed to continue this excellent program for high school students in California. The experience they receive in competitive public speaking and the scholarships they are awarded help them continue their education. These students certainly are Our Leaders of Tomorrow.

26 Multiple District 4 Global Membership Team Report EXHIBIT F To the Council of Governors, Joint Council of Governors Meeting June 2018 We wish to thank you for the opportunity you have given us to work with the 15 districts of our great state to strengthen their membership programs. We have rolled out what we believe is the best comprehensive program that is teachable at all level of Lions. It has been very well received at the districts where we have been afforded the opportunity to share it. Our multiple had a very difficult first half of the year but we wish to thank all the districts for refocusing and making 2018 a year of growth. We are looking forward to continuing the momentum into our next Lions year. California has proven that we can grow our membership if we focus, and put the necessary effort into developing new clubs, and bringing the tools we have developed for strengthening our existing clubs. As we move forward we hope all the districts will avail themselves of the programs we have developed to assist them. We wish to thank the six districts that have had our comprehensive workshops presented and we hope the remaining nine districts will book them very soon. If our programs get to the club level as intended our membership will grow and become stronger. Our focuses for the coming year will be teamwork, work within the regions and zones of each district and bringing membership forward as a top priority. In regards to membership we expect all the governor teams to be inclusive of all three members so that membership growth will become steady. This coming year the 2 nd VDG s will be tasked with starting a new club and our team and the district GMT teams will be there to help them every step of the way. We plan to be at zone and region meetings in partnership with the district GMT s to bring the membership programs directly to club level. When the clubs receive the tools and learn how to implement them membership will grow and be sustainable. It is of vital importance that the clubs receive the necessary tools to assist them to grow. It will be imperative that the districts of our great multiple prioritize membership growth into the future. The next years will be pivotal in determining how effective Lions Clubs will be as we move into our second century. Through strong membership growth in this period we will assure that we will be even more effective in providing humanitarian service to the people of California. Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to be of service to you. Lions are the greatest humanitarian association in the world and we plan on helping it grow into the future. Respectfully Submitted, PDG Buck Larson GMT Coordinator and The Multiple District 4 Global Membership Team

27 EXHIBIT G.1 MD4 GLOBAL SERVICE TEAM PDG Norm MacKenzie, Coordinator TO: Council of Governors RE: 2018 Joint Council Report Since the Mid-Winter report the Multiple has increased its service activities 6% since establishing a data base from which to gauge all efforts by the districts in number and percentage of clubs participating, number of Lions hours and people served. At present the Multiple has completed a total of 36,686 service activities this Lions year with a total of 897,011 Lions hours and 7,729,261 people served. However, the question that needs to be asked is, how many non-lions were invited to observe and/or participate? If one potential member was recruited for every project completed, that would add 36,686 members to the Multiple. Really awesome potential when you think about it. GSTs and GMTs need to work hand-in-hand to take advantage of this opportunity. The biggest challenge since February is getting the clubs to elect or appoint a Club Service Chair. Training was held at the convention and most District GSTs have been making presentations to clubs and encouraging increased activities with Leos around our global causes, Diabetes, Environment, Hunger, Vision, and Childhood Cancer. Several GSTs registered for the Value of Service webinar. That Power Point was ed to all GSTs after the webinar. I have included two attachments of data showing the current cumulative figures for all districts compiled from MyLCI reports. The first one is the MD4 Cumulative Service Activity Campaign Summary (# and % of clubs participating in two or more Centennial Service Challenge Campaign) showing 9,407 activities completed by 390 clubs which is percent of the Multiple. The top districts with the # and % of clubs participating are C5 with a 96.15%, followed by L4 with 89.29%, L6 with 82.61%, L1 with 80.95% and C3 with 78.67%. The second spreadsheet is the MD4 Cumulative Service Activities Category Summary report which covers all categories and has some duplication in reporting as there are Centennial Challenges such as Environment and Youth in the report. However, it shows a higher number of activities totaling 27,279 with 5, 261, 296 million people served. Adding another 2, 467, 965 from the first attachment equals 7, 729, 261 people served we still have the month of June to add to the totals for the year. These numbers will increase significantly in the future by all clubs having a CSC. After getting everyone trained on MyLCI, a new system is being implemented July 1 and the newest challenge begins of re-training our team. Have no fear, it will be done without missing a beat. The concept is working and will definitely improve every month. We Serve PDG Norm MacKenzie Motto: Have presentations, computer, projector and truck will travel anywhere"

32 EXHIBIT I MD-4 GOVERNORS BUDGET AND FINANCE REPORT FOURTH COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 9, 2018 Council Chairman Robert Manning, Council of Governors & Guests. I am PDG Kazuyoshi Sato, chairman of the Budget & Finance committee. I would like to introduce the following members. Mike Ferrier Penny Radtke PDG Vicki Peeman Governor Tessy Prumatico 1 st Vice Gov. Calvin T. Zender 2 nd Vice Gov. Rich E. Silveria The committee has finished their work for the year. Thank you to the committee members who had a great time in preparing the budget for the year 2018/2019. We hope that all the committees will work within their budget and be frugal in spending their budget item as requested. The investment with J.P. Morgan is fine and Lion Mike Ferrier will keep a firm hand on the investments. The committee has produced a form for most committees to use to ask for their budget for 2019/2020. Items in the budget are broken down, so the budget and finance committee will know what the committees are doing with the funds. It should be noted that each district governor is responsible for collecting per capita tax (dues) for Lions Clubs International, MD-4, and their own district. All clubs in arrears for more than one year should be put on status quo. This will either force the club to be current on their dues or be dropped from being a club in good standing. The committee would like to thank our executive administrator Cass Cara, for helping with information in producing the budget for the coming year. I now can retire, after sixteen years on the budget & finance committee. I thank all the previous and current council for letting me serve. In Lionism, PDG Kazuyoshi Kaz Sato Chairman
