Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

Each director, corporate officer, the top management official, the top financial official, and each key employee of the organization annually signs a statement: (1) affirming that the person has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, has read and understood the policy, and has agreed to comply with the policy and (2) discloses the person's financial interests and family relationships that could give rise to conflicts of interest. Each insider has a duty to disclose to the board all material facts regarding his or her interest in any transaction, promptly upon learning of the proposed transaction. The board determines if a conflict of interest exists. The insider(s) and any other interested person(s) involved with the transaction shall not be present during the board's discussion or determination of whether a conflict of interest exists. The board follows procedures as set forth in the policy to decide what measures are needed to protect the organization's interest considering 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. The deliberation and decision process is recorded in the meeting minutes.
