“Community Growth Foundation ("CGF") requires individuals responsible for its activities to advance the interests of CGF over any interests which may be adverse to CGF. The public trust upon which CGF relies requires from CGF, and specifically from those individuals responsible for its activities, a mark of integrity that assures the public that contributions made to CGF are used exclusively to further its activities and not to benefit individuals at the expense of such activities. A Responsible Individual has a conflict of interest when they either have the potential to benefit personally at the expense of CGF or have a fiduciary duty to another entity that may prevent them from acting in the best interests of CGF. Responsible Individuals shall scrutinize their interests, direct or indirect, in other entities to identify any conflicts of interest. Disclosure as to any conflict of interest (or confirmation that there are not any conflicts of interests) is to be made in writing annually by all Responsible Individuals using a form approved by the Board of Directors. Further, in the event a conflict of interest arises which has not previously been disclosed, the Responsible Individual shall disclose such conflict of interest as soon as possible. CGF shall not enter into a transaction in which a Responsible Individual has a conflict of interest unless a determination is made according to the following procedures that the transaction is in CGF's best interests and that its terms are fair to CGF. The Board of Directors may approve a transaction involving a conflict of interest if a majority of the disinterested Directors, even though they may be less than a quorum, determine in good faith that the transaction is fair and reasonable as to CGF and in CGF's best interests, such determination must be recorded in the official minutes of the Board of Directors that, disclosure of all of the material facts as to the relationship of the Responsible Individual with the Related Entity and shall be made only after reasonable investigation and deliberation regarding the transaction. In the event that a Responsible Individual is also a "disqualified person" (as defined by the intermediate sanction rules applicable to tax-exempt organizations as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder), any transaction between CGF and the Responsible Individual (including family members and entities related to such person) shall be approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with this policy and with such other substantive and procedural requirements as may be necessary to satisfy the applicable intermediate sanction rules.”
