“Annually, each trustee, principal officer and member of a committee with Board-delegated powers ("interested person") shall sign a statement which affirms that such person a) has received a copy of the conflicts of interest policy, b) has read and understands the policy, c) has agreed to comply with the policy, and d) understands that the organization is a charitable organization and that in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. In connection with any actual or possible conflicts of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of his or her financial or conflict of interest and must be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with Board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the Board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining Board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. An interested person may make a presentation at the Board or committee meeting, but after such presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement that results in the conflict of interest. The conflicted trustee has no vote on the matter involved with the conflict of interest. At the beginning of each Board Meeting and Committee Meeting, the Board Members and Committee Members are asked to disclose if they have a Conflict of Interest on any item contained in the agenda. In addition, the Board Members and Committee Members are also asked to inform the board chair if a Conflict of Interest arises during the course of the Board or Committee Meeting. When such a conflict is disclosed, then the procedure outlined above is implemented. In addition, a Conflict of Interest Schedule is kept with respect to each declared Conflict of Interest during the course of a Board or Committee meeting. On an annual basis, the Nominating and Governance Committee reviews each Conflict of Interest raised by a Board or Committee Member. Also, the Nominating and Governance Committee conducts a bi-annual evaluation of the Board Members' performance during the course of the Board Meetings and Committee Meetings. The review includes but is not limited to the Board Member's engagement, participation, contributions to board business, attendance, and any absence from a meeting due to a conflict of interest. The Conflicts of Interest declared by the Board Members are reviewed on an annual basis by the Nominating and Governance Committee to make sure all policies on Conflict of Interest are adhered to by the Boards, the Committees and the Individual Board or Committee Member.”
