In addition, under the Partners Conflict of Interest Policy, any time an officer, director, trustee, or key employee is aware of a transaction in which his/her interest may create a conflict, he/she is required to provide full disclosure of the interest, and may not be involved in the institutional decision-making about the transaction. In addition, with respect to such transactions, in appropriate circumstances, (i) the Corporation must consider at least two alternative disinterested competitive proposals; or must determine that two such competitive proposals do not exist or that it would be impractical to elicit or consider such competitive proposals; and (ii) the Corporation must determine that, notwithstanding the apparent conflict, the transaction is fair and reasonable to the Corporation and is in the best interests of the Corporation. A written record must be made of these determinations. Furthermore, transactions that present particularly significant conflicts are reviewed by an independent committee of the Partners Board for appropriate action, which review is also documented . |
