These parties are surveyed annually to identify potential conflicts and ensure compliance with the Organization's policy. Responses are reviewed by the VP/General Counsel to determine if a possible conflict may exist; if so, the VP/General Counsel and the CFO will evaluate: a) whether the conflict influenced any transaction or decisions, b) if so, whether any preventative measure can cure or mitigate that conflict, and c) what can be done in the future to prevent such conflicts. If a conflict is discovered, the conflicted person(s) may be subject to disciplinary action, including possible termination.
