It's clear that we need to be able to issue tax receipts in the US.
It would be desireable to be able to create entities in other jurisdictions.

So maybe the question is actually:
   Of the four options, are there any advantages to any of them when it comes
   to creating extra-US entites?

(I wonder if the UN has any mechanisms to facilitate the work of
international organizations?  Just as along is the letter I. T. and U. do not
occur in any permutation)
