“The bylaws were updated to reflect seven classes of members and remove the members' right to vote. Additionally, the board composition was reduced to at least 7 but no more than 13 voting directors.”

“Unos has seven classes of members of the corporation: transplant hospital members, organ procurement organization members, histocompatibility laboratory members, medical/scientific members, public organization members, business members and individual members. References in these bylaws to "members" shall include these classes unless otherwise noted. By amendment to the bylaws, the board of directors may establish additional categories of members.”

“Members of the board of directors elect succesor directors to fill those director's spots whose terms are expriring. Directors serve 3-year terms. The board of directors elects officers from among the members of the board of directors. The terms of the inaugural board were staggered with one group initially assigned a 2.5 year term (march 30, 2024 december 31, 2026) and the remaining group assigned a 3.5 year term (march 30, 2024 december 31, 2027). The bylaws stipulate that thereafter, each director shall serve a term of 3 years, and such terms be staggered by dividing the total number of directors into three groups, with each group containing approximately one-third of the total, or as near as possible.”

“A draft of form 990 is shared with the entire board of directors prior to submission to the irs allowing them to review and ask any questions which are formally addressed.”

The directors review each meeting agenda item for potential conflicts of interests with any current board member, including officers, and if a conflict is identified, the affected director is advised how to avoid the conflict or the appearance of a conflict.”
