IF AN EMPLOYEE OR BOARD MEMBER HAS ANY INFLUENCE ON TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING PURCHASES, CONTRACTS, OR LEASES, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT HE OR SHE DISCLOSE TO AN OFFICER OF THE CORPORATION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST SO THAT SAFEGUARDS CAN BE ESTABLISHED TO PROTECT ALL PARTIES.
