“Jlens presents a copy of the form 990 to all board members for their review and approval prior to electronically filing the form 990 with the irs.”

“Jlens' conflict of interest policy applies to directors, officers, and key management employees. Interested persons must disclose any potential financial interests and provide all relevant facts to the board. After disclosure, the individual must leave the meeting while the board discusses and votes on the conflict. The board will assess if a more advantageous transaction can be obtained without the conflict and, if not, will determine by majority vote of disinterested directors whether the transaction is fair and reasonable. Potential conflicts of interests are reviewed on an annual basis.”

“Jlens follows the compensation policy as set forth by its related organization, anti-defamation league ("adl"). Adl's process for determining the compensation of other officers and all key employees includes consultation with an independent compensation consultant that performs a compensation market study and provides salary structure grading. The adl board chair then presents a recommendation to the executive compensation committee. The executive compensation committee makes a decision on the recommendation, as documented in the committee meeting minutes.”

“Jlens' form 990, the governing documents, and conflict of interest policy are available upon request and at management's discretion.”
