“Trec ci follows a conflict of interest policy. The purpose of the conflict of interest policy (the "policy") is to protect the interests of the fund, when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of an officer, director or committee member of the fund or might result in a possible excess benefit transaction. The policy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state and federal laws governing conflicts of interest applicable to nonprofit and charitable organizations. In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees who are considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, the interested person shall leave the board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining directors or committee members, as the case may be, shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. An interested person may make a presentation at the board or committee meeting, but after the presentation, the interested person shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. The chairperson of the board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the board or committee shall determine whether the corporation or relevant committee can obtain, with reasonable efforts, a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors or committee members whether the transaction or arrangement is in the corporation's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, the disinterested directors or committee members shall make the decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement.”
