“Annually, the board of directors reviews the conflict of interest policy. Each board member is then asked to provide a written and signed conflict of interest statement. The conflict of interest statement affirms that the director has reviewed the conflict of interest policy and either: affirms that the director is unaware of any potential conflicts; or lists any potential conflicts known to the director. Additionally, all interested persons (directors, service providers, or any other person having responsibility for the management or administration of the organization's finances, investments, or other proprietary information) are under a continuing obligation to disclose any potential conflict of interest to the board of directors as soon as it is known or reasonably should be known. For any disclosed potential conflict, the board of directors evaluates the potential conflict to determine if an actual conflict exists and what, if any, actions are required to eliminate or mitigate the conflict of interest. The evaluation must be made in good faith and based on all material facts. The organization may enter into a transaction or arrangement in which an interested person has a conflict of interest only if the directors have documented their evaluation and approval of the transaction or arrangement and has determined that the transaction or arrangement is fair and reasonable to the organization; is in the best interest of the organization; furthers the organization's purposes; and does not result in a violation of the internal revenue code. An interested person who has an actual or potential conflict of interest is not present for or leaves any portion of a meeting at which the directors are voting to determine whether a conflict exists but may be present prior to the vote or discussion of the vote to make a presentation to the directors, disclose additional facts, or respond to questions.”
