**Introduction**  
Whitelist the VitaDAO Gnosis Safe multisig, to vote-lock the B-80BAL-20WETH owned by the VitaDAO community into veBAL and participate in governance for the Balancer DAO, and vote on increased rewards for the Vita\<\>ETH pools.

**Motivation**  
VitaDAO is a community DAO funding longevity research, and is a big fan and longer-term collaborator with Balancer, having its main liquidity pools listed with Balancer, and incentivising them with $vita rewards.

If the community would support it, we’d love to engage in Balancer DAO governance through veBAL.

**Risks**  
VitaDAO multisig signers recognise the risk of allowing smart contacts to vote-lock veBAL, and commits to not using this safe for tokenizing veBAL. We understand that doing so will likely prompt the removal of the safe’s address from the AllowList.

**Specification**  
Whitelist the VitaDAO Gnosis Safe multisig, 0xF5307a74d1550739ef81c6488DC5C7a6a53e5Ac2, to interact with the veBAL contract.

VitaDAO has indeed been a long time user of Balancer so I fully support whitelisting them to lock veBAL.
