“Rfa has a conflict of interest policy that is posted on its intranet. At least once a year rfa distributes a certification and disclosure form to its officers and key employees. Annually, the policy is reviewed and updated by the general counsel and is made available to all new hires at the time of employment. In addition, rfa performs conflict of interest workshops and attendance is mandatory for all employees. If a potential conflict arises and it is disclosed by the employee, the employee's supervisor discusses the disclosure with the general counsel. If the general counsel determines that an actual conflict exists, the employee is advised that he or she may not engage in the activity. If the general counsel determines that there may be a potential conflict but that it will not adversely affect rfa, the employee may be able to engage in the activity with certain restrictions. If an employee engages in an activity that poses a conflict of interest and rfa is or becomes aware of the activity, the employee would be advised that he or she must stop engaging in the activity and/or appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment may result.
