Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 1

“An executive committee may be appointed by the foundation's board of directors with the authority to manage the affairs of the foundation between meetings of the board. If appointed, the executive committee is comprised of the foundation's officers.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The board does not review the form 990 prior to filing. A copy of the form 990 is reviewed by the foundation manager with the assistance of the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and director of finance of national telecommunications cooperative association prior to filing. After approval, it is signed by the foundation manager.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“The foundation's conflict of interest policy applies to all members of the board of directors and any other person who may regularly exercise general authority to make administrative or policy decisions on behalf of the foundation, including the manager and executive director. When a person becomes aware of an actual or potential conflict, they disclose all relevant information to the board chair or vice chair, remove themselves from all discussions of the matter, and remove themselves from all votes on the matter. The board may vote to enter the transaction if it determines that the transaction is in the foundation's best interest. All relevant information is documented in the meeting minutes. If a person violates the foundation's conflict of interest policy, they inform the board chair and the foundation's general counsel, who take appropriate action.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The foundation's conflict of interest policy and the financial statements are made available to the public upon request. The foundation's governing documents are available on the website.”
