The board shall determine whether a conflict exists and in the case of an existing conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair and reasonable to the organization. The decision of the board on these matters will rest in their sole discretion, and their concern must be the welfare of the organization and the advancement of its purpose.”
