There is a certain amount of legalese that you need to be a Californian 
corporation (which we are). Pretty much every corporation needs a 
president, secretary and treasurer, who are the officers of the 
foundation. Those are legally required, I believe.

The "agent" text looks like boilerplate to me - you need to cover the 
asses of people acting on behalf of the foundation (that's what an 
"agent" is).

Cheers,
Dave.
