“In connection with any actual or possible confiict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the governing board or committee. The remaining board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. The chairperson of the governing board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. If such an arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a confiict of interest, the governing board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the Organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. If the governing board or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. After this response and subsequent investigation, the governing board or committee will determine if appropriate disciplinary and corrective action is necessary.”
