“Each director shall disclose to the board of directors any conflict of interest or possible conflict of interest whenever the conflict pertains to a matter being considered by the board. Any director having a conflict of interest on any matter shall abstain from voting on the matter but may be counted in determining the quorum for the vote on the matter. In addition, he or she shall not use his or her personal influence on the matter, but may briefly state his or her position on the matter and may answer pertinent questions from other directors since his or her knowledge may be of great assistance. The minutes of the meeting involving any such situation shall reflect at least the following: a) that a conflict existed; b) that a disclosure was made regarding the conflict; c) that the director with the conflict abstained from voting; and d) whether or not a quorum existed. If a director is uncertain as to whether he or she has a duality or conflict of interest which requires abstention, or if a director asserts that another director has such a duality or conflict, the board, by majority vote of those present other than the director having the possible conflict, shall decide whether abstention is required. If so, the director will be deemed to have abstained. The ceo, cfo, and board chair are responsible for monitoring.”
