Prior to board or committee action on a contract or transaction involving a conflict of interest, a director or committee member having a conflict of interest and who is in attendance at the meeting shall disclose all facts material to the conflict of interest.

Such person shall not attempt to exert his or her personal influence with respect to the matter, either at or outside the meeting.

This process was last undertaken in december 2023.”
