There is a separate conflict of interest policy for employees in the overall code of conduct policy. An interested person promptly shall disclose to weta any transaction or proposed transaction with weta of which he or she is aware: (a) to which such interested person or a related person is a party, regardless of the dollar amount of the transaction, or (b) with an organization with which such interested person or a related person has an affiliation and in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeds or is likely to exceed $5,000. In addition, disclosure shall be made by each interested person upon election, appointment or initial employment, as the case may be, and annually thereafter on or about the time of the annual meeting, by completing and submitting the disclosure form. All disclosures under this conflicts of interest policy shall be directed to the chief operating officer who, in consultation with the general counsel, shall be responsible for the administration of this policy. The written minutes of the board or committee meeting will include a general description of any transaction that was approved and the basis for the approval, the information considered by the board or committee before voting on the transaction and how that information was obtained, and the members of the board or committee who were present for the discussion and the vote. If the board or committee determines that a transaction should not be approved, the written minutes will reflect the reasons for its determination and its recommendation, if any. The minutes shall be recorded before the next meeting of the board or committee, and reviewed and approved at that meeting.”
