“Each founding member may appoint a representative to the board of directors. Further, members of the board, other than the representatives of the founding members, are elected by plurality vote of a-isac's voting membership, which includes founding members and aviation members. The organization does not have stockholders.”

“Founding members and aviation members have the right under delaware law to vote on proposed mergers, sale of all or substantially all assets, and dissolution. Otherwise, the board manages the organization.”

“The return was prepared by outside accountants and reviewed by senior management. The form 990 was shared with the board prior to filing.”

“All board members, officers, in-kind support and employees are required to annually sign a conflict of interest policy statement. The executive director reviews the policy with each employee and in-kind support. The conflict of interest forms are discussed and signed by the board during a yearly in-person board meeting. For serious and actual conflicts, the individual may have to voluntarily withdraw - or be withdrawn involuntarily if necessary - from the a-isac position. For less serious conflicts, the individual generally recuses him/herself from part or all of the discussion regarding the issue for which there is a conflict and from voting on the issue. Finally, for minor or potential conflicts, full disclosure to a-isac is generally sufficient. A-isac's board of directors has the authority to make determinations on how to proceed in all such cases.”

“The day-to-day operations are conducted by the board. The officers of the organization are in-kind support staff and do not receive compensation.”

“Governing documents, conflicts of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.”
