“The conflict of interest policy is reviewed annually by the board of directors. Each member of the board of directors and senior management is asked to complete an independence questionnaire to disclose annually any business ventures, ownership interests or services that could create a conflict of interest. The existence of any potential conflict of interest shall be disclosed to board of directors, who shall determine whether a conflict of interest exists. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the governing 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. In the event a conflict of interest does exists, an interested person may make a presentation to the governing board or committee, but after the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the conflict of interest. The chairperson of the governing board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the governing board or committee shall determine whether the organization can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the governing board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conforming with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement.”
