Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 Form 990 is initially reviewed by the organizations treasurer and, once approved, is presented to the full board of directors for ratification prior to filing. Conflict of interest policy compliance Part VI line 12c The conflict of interest policy applies to any director, officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers who has a direct or indirect financial interest in a transaction under consideration by the corporation. Such individual has a duty to disclose the existence of the financial interest and will be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the board of directors. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts and any discussion, the interested person shall leave the board meeting and the remaining directors shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. After exercising due diligence, the board of directors shall determine whether the corporation can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible, the directors shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement with the interested person. If the board of directors has reasonable cause to believe a director has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the director of the basis for such belief and afford the director an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the directors response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board of directors determines the director has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the director of the basis for such belief and afford the director an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the directors response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board of directors determines the director has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Governing documents etc available to public Part VI line 19 The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public on request.
