        <Explanation>Part VI, Section B, Line 12c:Each director and principal officer annually signs a statement that affirms that they have received, read, and understood a copy of the conflict of interest policy and have agreed to comply with the policy. The policy requires Texas Coalition for Animal Protection conduct periodic reviews that, at a minimum, include whether compensation arrangements and benefits are reasonable, based on competent survey information, and the result of arm's length bargaining and whether partnerships, joint ventures, and arrangements with management organizations conform to the Texas Coalition for Animal Protection's written policies. Directors and principal officers are required to disclose the existence and nature of any direct or indirect "financial interest," which is a defined term in the policy. After disclosure the board of directors shall decide whether the financial interest is a conflict of interest. The person with the financial interest shall not be present for the discussion and the determination of whether a conflict of interest exists. The procedures for addressing a conflict of interest include the following: The chairperson of the board of directors shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the board of directors or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the Texas Coalition for Animal Protection's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement.</Explanation>
