General Explanation GeneralExplanation (5 entries)

IdentifierIdentifierExplanationExplanation
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11An electronic copy of the draft of the form 990 will be distributed to the organization's governing body prior to its filing. All the members of the governing board will review the 990 and it will not be filed with the irs prior to their authorization.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cREAD has developed its conflict of interest policy and periodically reviews the policy to ensure that all its directors and officers continue to act in compliance with applicable laws and to deal with all persons doing business with READ appropriately. These policies are guidelines to protect READ's interests when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of an officer or director of the Corporation. These policies are intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state laws governing conflicts of interest and permissible activities applicable to nonprofit and charitable corporations. In connection with any actual or possible conflicts of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence and nature of his/her financial interests to the directors and members of committees with board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest, the interested person shall leave the board or committee meeting while the financial interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining Board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. Procedures for Addressing the Conflict of Interest a. The President of READ or the Finance Committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. b. After exercising due diligence, the President or the Finance Committee shall determine whether READ can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from a person or entity that would give not rise to a conflict of interest. c. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably attainable under circumstances that would not give rise to a conflict of interest, the Board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the best interest and for its own benefit and whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to READ and shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement in conformity with such a determination. Violations of the Conflict of Interest Policy a.
