Baghdad on 16 / 1 / 1960 To - The Honorable Chairman of the Administrative Committee for Iraqi Jews. Baghdad. After greetings, We enclose herewith a copy of the estimated budget of revenues and expenses for the Ezra Menahem Daniel Playground for the academic year 1 October 1959 to 30 September 1960, and we request its approval. Since the system of sports courses that was applied in the past two years successfully has now become an integral part of the student's curriculum, we decided to delay the preparation of this estimated budget until now, pending the necessary arrangements to give students these systematic sports lessons and calculating the amounts required for this purpose in light of the necessary actual expenditures so that we could estimate the budget on a basis close to reality. As the playground bears the costs of transporting students to and from the playground, as well as the fees for the coaches selected for this purpose. The budget includes an amount of 450/- Dinars for the purpose of supplying the playground with raw water, in order to avoid the exorbitant expenses currently spent on watering the playground with pure water, as the water supplied to the playground by the Mayoralty of the Capital was cut off a year ago, and approval has now been obtained from the Water Supply Committee for the Baghdad area to supply the playground with raw water via pipes. Most of the required pipes have been purchased, and it is hoped that the supply will be completed before the summer season. Once that is done, what will be spent on purchasing the external pipes will be considered an advance to the Water Supply Committee to be deducted from the fees for the water supplied, in accordance with its regulations. We hope that this estimated budget has met with your approval. With our utmost respect. ⟦illegible signature⟧ Chairman Ezra Menahem Playground Committee

Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium Baghdad Telephone: 85267 Baghdad, 15 / 12 / 1959 To - The Honorable Chairman of the Administrative Committee for Iraqi Jews Baghdad Greetings Attached herewith is a copy of the income and expenditure account realized for the Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium from 1 / July / 1958 to 30 / September / 1959. We also attach a copy of the stadium's financial position as of 30 / 9 / 1959, both of which are duplicated in the stadium's ledgers that have been audited by the committee members. Salaries and laborers' wages constitute the largest part of the stadium's payments, amounting during the fifteen months above to 1619.440 Dinars, as stadium activities were seven days a week for the training of Frank Iny School students within their school sports curriculum. The fees for raw and pure water reached 290.556 Dinars, as the raw water was cut off from the stadium ten months ago, forcing the administration to temporarily use pure water to irrigate the gardens. The Water Supply Committee has agreed to provide the stadium with raw water from the Al-Saadoun project via pipes; the necessary pipes have actually been purchased and the required fees paid, and it is hoped that the raw water will arrive before the summer season. The amount of 64.670 Dinars was spent to transport Frank Iny School students to and from the stadium during the school year on attendance days, while 72.070 Dinars were spent on sports equipment, trophies, and others. The stadium still needs much furniture, sports necessities, and lighting for the courts. We had previously reserved for this aspect in our estimated budget for last year, as we allocated the necessary amounts, knowing they were not spent, and we must keep this reserve for the coming year and it will only be spent if necessary and if it becomes possible for the committee to devote itself to this aspect. The stadium committee had borrowed during the fifteen months ending on 30 / September / 1959 an amount of 2000 / - Dinars, and 399.682 Dinars remained of this amount, which has been carried over to next year's account. As for the deficit, it amounted for the same period to 1776.294 Dinars, which is requested to be charged to the endowment of the late Ezra Menachem Daniel. We are pleased to have been able to perform what work we could for the sake of the public interest, in implementation of the spirit of the late Ezra Menachem Daniel's endowment.

The word "Stadium" in these regulations refers to the Ezra Menachem Daniel Stadium. 2- In these regulations, the word "Member" includes the Chairman. 3- The committee consists of three persons appointed by the Trustee (Mutawalli) of the Stadium. If it is deemed in the public interest later on, the number of members may be increased upon a proposal from the committee and the approval of the Trustee. 4- The term of committee membership is three academic years. For this purpose, the academic year is considered to end on September 30th of each year, at which date the membership term ends. Members may be reappointed after their term expires for one or more additional terms. 5- The committee shall elect, at its first meeting after formation, a Chairman and a Secretary, and the Trustee shall be notified accordingly. The Chairman is the one who represents the committee, and the Secretary is the one who implements its decisions. All correspondence from the committee shall be issued under the signature of the Chairman or the Secretary. 6- A quorum for the committee consists of two members if the number of members is three or four, provided that the Chairman is one of them and that decisions are made by consensus. If the number of members exceeds four, a quorum is met if half or more of the members are present, and decisions are taken by an absolute majority. The Chairman has two votes if the votes are divided equally. In the absence of the Chairman, the Secretary shall act on his behalf. 7- The committee may establish rules it deems appropriate for organizing its meetings, business, and how tasks are distributed and arranged among its members. 8- If a member resigns during the committee's term, the remaining two members shall nominate a third member, whose appointment must be approved by the Trustee, provided his membership ends with the other two members. If more than half of the committee members resign at once or consecutively without being replaced from time to time, the committee is considered dissolved. 9- a) The committee may invite to its meetings individuals it deems necessary for consultation or to delegate a task to them, provided they do not have a vote in its decisions. It also has the right to appoint subcommittees from among its members or others to perform specific tasks such as monitoring the stadium buildings and grounds, maintaining them, overseeing certain technical aspects of the stadium, organizing the collection of membership fees, or the like, provided that the Trustee is notified of these appointments. b) The committee may communicate with the administrations of the Mosaic (Jewish) community schools to organize athletic affairs for the students of these schools. 10- The committee must deposit all funds at its disposal in a bank whenever the amount exceeds the stadium's regular monthly expenses, provided the account is in the name of the committee. Withdrawals shall be made by the joint signatures of the Chairman and another committee member. No expenditure may be made without a committee decision. 11- The function of the committee is to oversee the management of the stadium and encompass its various administrative, financial, and athletic affairs, and to work on its advancement. It is the sole reference for all inquiries or correspondence regarding its affairs, except for official communications with local authorities, which are referred to the Trustee to handle. The committee has the right of total supervision, inspection, and the determination of athletic and training curricula. 12- a) The committee must prepare a detailed estimated budget for the stadium year by year and submit it to the Trustee during the period between the first day of October and the first day of December of each year for approval. If circumstances prevent the preparation of the budget during this period, it may be postponed with notification to the Trustee of the reasons for the delay, provided this delay does not exceed the end of January of each year. Spending to cover stadium expenses is permitted throughout the period preceding the Trustee's approval of the budget, based on the previous year's budget. (To be continued 2)
