    The National Park Foundation shall consist of a Board having as 
members the Secretary of the Interior, the Director of the National Park 
Service, ex officio, and no less than six private citizens of the United 
States appointed by the Secretary of the Interior whose initial terms 
shall be staggered to assure continuity of administration. Thereafter, 
the term shall be six years, unless a successor is chosen to fill a 
vacancy occurring prior to the expiration of the term for which his 
predecessor was chosen, in which event the successor shall be chosen 
only for the remainder of that term. The Secretary of the Interior shall 
be the Chairman of the Board and the Director of the National Park 
Service shall be the Secretary of the Board. Membership on the Board 
shall not be deemed to be an office within the meaning of the statutes 
of the United States. A majority of the members of the Board serving at 
any one time shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, 
and the Foundation shall have an official seal, which shall be 
judicially noticed. The Board shall meet at the call of the Chairman and 
there shall be at least one meeting each year.
    No compensation shall be paid to the members of the Board for their 
services as members, but they shall be reimbursed for actual and 
necessary traveling and subsistence expenses incurred by them in the 
performance of their duties as such members out of National Park 
Foundation funds available to the Board for such purposes. The 
Foundation shall succeed to all right, title, and interest of the 
National Park Trust Fund Board established in any property or funds, 
including the National Park Trust Fund, subject to the terms and 
conditions thereof. The National Park Trust Fund is hereby abolished, 
and the Act of July 10, 1935 (49 Stat. 477), as amended, is hereby 
repealed.
