Once the board has approved the return it is filed with the internal revenue service.”

“Any director, any person with board-delegated powers, any officer or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers or any employee of the corporation, who has a direct or indirect "financial interest or "non-financial interest" is an "interested person". The interested person must disclose the existence of his or her financial or non-financial interest in the proposed transaction or arrangement, and must further disclose all material facts to the finance committee. Absent full disclosure, no transaction or arrangement shall be made with the person or entity in which the interested person has an interest. In the case of an employee, the employee should notify the ceo, who will consult with such others as may be appropriate before bringing the issue to the finance committee. An interested person may make a presentation at the governing board or committee meeting. After the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting immediately and shall not be present during the discussion of, or the vote on, the propriety of the transition or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest.”
