“We have adopted a conflict of interest policy to protect the organization's interests when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of an officer or director of the organization or might result in a possible excess benefit transaction. An interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the board. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the board meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the board may 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 reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. If the board believes there has been a violation of the policy or 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 of such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board determines the member had failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Each board member and executive director shall annually sign a statement that affirms such person has agreed to comply with the policy. Periodic reviews shall also be conducted.”
