“The organization's policy does cover the board of directors. It outlines the duty to disclose, the process for determining whether a conflict of interest exists and the procedures for addressing a conflict. The executive committee determines whether a potential conflict is an actual conflict. The executive committee shall ascertain that all material facts regarding the transaction and the insider's conflict of interest have been disclosed to the executive committee and shall compile appropriate data, such as comparability studies, to determine fair market value for the transaction, prior to any final determination with regard to the matter under conflict. The executive committee may ask questions of and receive presentation(s) from the insider(s) and any other interested person(s), but shall deliberate and vote on the transaction in their absence. The executive committee makes the final determination as to whether or not it is in the organization's best interest to pursue the transaction. The minutes of any meeting of the executive committee shall contain the name of each insider who disclosed or was otherwise determined to have a conflict, as well as the details related to the potential and/or actual conflict and the determination made by the executive committee. These minutes are presented to the full board at the next available opportunity. The executive committee is also granted authority to take any appropriate disciplinary and corrective action if deemed necessary in light of the determinations related to a conflict or if a conflict is not properly disclosed.”
