If an officer/director has a conflict of interest attends a meeting, they shall disclose all facts material to the conflict at that meeting. If an officer/director does not plan to attend a meeting at which they have a conflict, that person shall disclose the conflict to the chair, who will report the conflict at the meeting to the board.

Such person shall not attempt to exert personal influence with respect to the matter either at or outside the meeting. Such person shall not be counted in determining the presence of a quorum for purposes of the vote and may not vote on the agreement or transaction nor be present in the room when the vote is taken. Such person's ineligibility to vote shall be reflected in the minutes of the meeting. If the board 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. If the board still has reason to believe a conflict exists after the alleged conflict is explained and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”
