ARTICLE I <br /> • <br /> The 4M Fund <br /> 1.01 Name. The name of the common law trust created by this Declaration of Trust shall <br /> be "Minnesota Municipal Money Market Fund" (the 4M Fund) and, so far as may be <br /> practicable, the Trustees shall conduct the 4M Fund's activities, execute all documents and sue <br /> or be sued under that name, which name (and the word "4M Fund" wherever used in this <br /> Declaration of Trust except where the context otherwise requires) shall refer to the Trustees in <br /> their capacity as Trustees, and not individually or personally, and shall not refer to the officers, <br /> agents, employees, counsel, advisers, consultants, accountants, or Participants of the 4M Fund <br /> or of such Trustees. Should the Trustees determine that the use of such name is not practicable, <br /> legal or convenient, they may use such other designation or they may adopt such other name for <br /> the 4M Fund as they deem proper, and the 4M Fund may hold property and conduct its activities <br /> under such designation or name. The Trustees shall take such actions as they, acting with the <br /> advice of counsel, shall deem necessary or appropriate to file or register such name in <br /> accordance with the Laws of the State of Minnesota or the United States of America so as to <br /> protect and reserve the right of the 4M Fund in and to such name. <br /> 1.02 Purpose: Only Certain Minnesota Municipalities to be Participants. <br /> (a) The purpose of the 4M Fund is to provide a means through which <br /> Municipalities may jointly and cooperatively exercise their power to invest their respective <br /> available funds so as to enhance their investment opportunities pursuant to an investment <br /> program conducted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Minnesota, from time to time <br /> in effect, governing the investment of the Municipal Funds. Only Municipalities organized <br /> under the Laws of the State of Minnesota may become Participants. A Municipality may <br /> become a party to this Declaration of Trust and may place monies in the 4M Fund only after its <br /> Board or Council has duly adopted a resolution or taken other applicable official action, <br /> authorizing such Municipality to become a Participant of the 4M Fund and adopting this <br /> Declaration of Trust. <br /> (b) It is not necessary for a municipality to place any funds in the 4M Fund to <br /> become a Participant, and no minimum investment balance must be maintained by a Municipality <br /> which has become a Participant in order for such Municipality to continue to be a Participant. <br /> 1.03 Location. The 4M Fund shall maintain an office of record in the State of Minnesota <br /> and may maintain such other offices or places of business as the Trustees may from time to time <br /> determine. The initial office of record of the 4M Fund shall be: c/o League of Minnesota <br /> Cities, 183 University Avenue East, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101. The office of record may be <br /> changed from time to time by resolution of the Trustees, and notice of such change of the office <br /> of record shall be given to each Participant. <br /> 2 is <br />
