Petition to Place Motions of Agenda of June 7th, 2009 Special Membership Meeting

Pursuant to Article IV, Section 3 of the NDC by-laws, the following
members put forth a motion to be added to the agenda of the special
meeting to be held on June 7, 2009:

Whereas,

I. Article V, Section 4, paragraph 7 of the NDC by-laws states that
“[the board shall] At all times keep the membership fully informed of
the facts pertaining to the operation of the affairs of the Corporation
and fully advise the membership of matters which have an important
bearing upon the future operation of the affairs of the Corporation”;

II. The attached email message communicating the actions of the board
was only transmitted to members after the previous general manager
(Kareem) was locked out, the store was closed, and the contract was
terminated;

III. The previous general manager, Kareem Kmaiha, says he can prove that
he has worked with the New Deal Corporation in good faith by virtue of
the fact that he can provide supporting documentation, including bank
statements and receipts, showing that

a. He made at least $37,000 in capital improvements to the kitchen;
b. He made timely payments of all other expenses related to the
day-to-day operation of the business, including rent, utilities, taxes,
and insurance;
c. And, given the difficult economic realities of starting a business in
the middle of an economic recession, he made reasonable efforts to pay
down the debt of the New Deal Corporation, including at least $40,000 in
direct payments to the New Deal Corporation in 2008;

IV. And, the previous manager yielded control of the bar to the New Deal
Corporation in 2009, so that profit from the bar could be redirected
towards paying down the debt of the New Deal Corporation;

We, the undersigned, move that

I. Kareem Kmaiha shall be temporarily reinstated as general manager for
a period of 45 days (starting on June 7, 2009), under the terms of the
contract or contracts between Kareem Kmaiha and the New Deal Corporation
that were in effect as of April 30, 2009;

II. An election shall be held to form a special audit committee of five
New Deal members;

III. The members of the audit committee shall be given access to all
written contracts between Kareem Kmaiha and the New Deal Corporation
that were ever entered into;

IV. The members of the audit committee shall review
a. The above contracts (in Paragraph III);
b. Any supporting documentation, including bank statements and receipts,
that Kareem Kmaiha provides to the special audit committee within the
next ten days (starting on June 7, 2009);
c. And, any documentation that the current NDC board provides with the
next ten days (starting on June 7, 2009);

V. The members of the special audit committee shall submit a report to a
special meeting to be held 45 days from June 7, 2009. The purpose of
this report shall be to evaluate the extent to which Kareem Kmaiha has
abided by his previous contractual obligations with the New Deal
Corporation (prior to the store closing in May 2009);

VI. And, in the above special meeting (to be held 45 days from June 7,
2009), the members shall be given the opportunity to debate and then
cast a vote to determine whether Kareem Kmaiha should be offered the
opportunity to enter into a new five-year contract with the New Deal
Corporation under the terms of the contract or contracts between Kareem
Kmaiha and the New Deal Corporation that were in effect as of April 30,
2009. This motion to extend such the offer shall pass provided that
greater than 50% of the members present at the meeting vote in favor of
the motion.
