“The organization does not have "members" by definition of the bylaws; however, the form 990 instructions further defines a "member" as any person (including a corporation or other legal entity) with the power to appoint members of the governing body. Accordingly, the organization has one sole member: ole health, a nonprofit public benefit corporation.”

“Each of the members of the board of directors is appointed by ole health, a california nonprofit public benefit corporation.”

“Dissolution of the corporation requires the approval of ole health, the supported organization.”

“To prepare the form 990, the organization utilized a professional accounting firm who worked with the finance and accounting team of the supported organization (ole health) to gather the required information. Upon review of the form 990 by the management team of ole health, a copy of the form 990 with all related schedules and statements was provided to members of the board of directors before filing in order to allow sufficient time for review and comment.”

“Each director annually signs a statement that affirms that they: (i) have received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, have read and understood the policy, and have agreed to comply with the policy, and (ii) will truthfully disclose their financial interests and family relationships that could give rise to any actual or potential conflicts of interest. Each insider with a potential conflict of interest shall promptly disclose to the board all material facts regarding his/her interest in the transaction. The board then reviews the material facts concerning such interested person's interest in the transaction and determines if the interest constitutes a conflict of interest. If a conflict of interest has been found, the board may ask questions of and receive presentations from the insiders and any other interested persons, but deliberates and vote on the transaction in their absence. After exercising due diligence, which may include investigating alternatives that present no conflict of interest, the board determines whether the transaction is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable to the organization.”

“The organization does not compensate any employees; accordingly, form 990, part vi, section b, lines 15a and 15b have been marked "no" in accordance with the form 990 instructions.”

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