  • to prohibit a director or officer, in his or her corporate capacity, from contributing to, supporting, or participating in political activities;
  • to allow income and assets of the corporation to be used to reasonably compensate or reimburse expenses of an officer, director, or member; to award a grant to the Federal Bar Association chapter of an officer, director, or member; and to reasonably compensate employees;
  • to expand a prohibition on loans for directors and officers to include members and employees; and
  • to specify that on dissolution or final liquidation, any remaining assets must be distributed as provided by the board of directors instead of deposited in the Treasury.
