“The form 990 is reviewed by the president and a copy of the form is provided to the entire board prior to filing.”

“Each director, officer, the top management official, and employees of the organization, are required to annually sign and submit a statement that: affirms that the person has received a copy of this conflict of interest policy, has read and understood the policy, and has agreed to comply with the policy; and for certain individuals, discloses the person's financial interests and family relationships that could give rise to conflicts of interest. Once a conflict of interest has been found: with regard to an employee who is not an insider person, the secretary shall ascertain that all material facts regarding the transaction and the employee's conflict of interest have been disclosed, and decide the appropriate response by the organization, taking into consideration the seriousness of the conflict. With regard to an insider person, the board or committee shall follow the procedures set forth in article iv in order to decide what measures are needed to protect the organization's interests in light of the nature and seriousness of the conflict, to decide whether to enter into the transaction and, if so, to ensure that the terms of the transaction are appropriate. In the case of an insider who is a director, the director shall not vote on any transaction in which the director has an interest, and the remaining board or committee members shall decide the matter. The board or committee may ask questions of and receive presentation(s) from the insider(s) and any other insider person(s), but shall deliberate and vote on the transaction in their absence. The board or committee shall ascertain that all material facts regarding the transaction and the insider person's conflict of interest have been disclosed to the board or committee and shall compile appropriate data to ascertain whether the proposed transaction is fair and reasonable to the organization. After exercising due diligence, which may include investigating alternatives that present no conflict, the board or committee shall determine whether the transaction is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable to the organization. If the transaction involves a director with a material financial interest, the board or committee shall also determine that the corporation could not have obtained a more advantageous arrangement with reasonable effort under the circumstances. If the transaction involves a director with a material financial interest, the transaction may then be approved by a vote of the majority of the directors then in office, not including any interested directors. If it is not reasonably practical to obtain advance approval by the full board in this way, a committee may approve the transaction with the director by a vote of a majority of the committee members, not counting any interested committee members. Annually the board conducts a review of the administration of the conflict of interest policy. The review considers the level of compliance with the policy, the continued suitability of the policy and whether the policy should be modified and improved.”
