IT IS CHAIRED BY THE CURRENT BOARD CHAIR. BYLAWS ALLOW THE COMMITTEE TO PERFORM MOST, BUT NOT ALL OF THE BOARD FUNCTIONS. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE COMMITTEE IS PROHIBITED FROM ALTERING OR REPEALING THE BYLAWS AND ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION; ELECTING, APPOINTING OR REMOVING ANY DIRECTOR, OFFICER OR COMMITTEE MEMBER; ADOPTING A PLAN OF MERGER WITH ANOTHER CORPORATION; AUTHORIZING THE VOLUNTARY DISSOLUTION OF THE ORGANIZATION.

ONCE THE VP HAS APPROVED FORM 990 AND SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES, THE RETURN IS FORWARDED TO ALL BOARD MEMBERS FOR ITS REVIEW AND TO THE AUDIT/FINANCE COMMITTEE FOR ITS REVIEW AND APPROVAL. AFTER THE AUDIT/FINANCE COMMITTEE HAS APPROVED THE RETURN, THE CFO INSTRUCTS THE EXTERNAL ACCOUNTING FIRM TO PREPARE A FINAL VERSION OF THE RETURN FOR SIGNATURE BY THE PRESIDENT AND CEO FOR FILING WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.

THE VICE PRESIDENT AND THE CFO REVIEW THE FORMS AND DISCLOSURES FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD AND STAFF, RESPECTIVELY. FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS, THE VICE PRESIDENT MAKES A SUMMARY OF THE RESULTS AND GIVES THEM TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD MAKES A DETERMINATION AS TO WHETHER THE PERCEIVED CONFLICT IS REAL OR NOT. WE HAVE NOT HAD A REAL CONFLICT IN THE LAST YEARS, BUT IF WE DID, THE NATURE OF THE CONFLICT WOULD BE REVIEWED BY THE BOARD, AND APPROPRIATE ACTIONS WOULD BE TAKEN (DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF CONFLICT) TO ELIMINATE THE CONFLICT (THIS COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS THE BOARD MEMBER RECUSING HIM/HERSELF FROM A DECISION, TO DISPOSING OR TERMINATING THE CONFLICTING RELATIONSHIP). FOR EMPLOYEES, THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE WOULD REVIEW THE CONFLICT AND PERFORM A SIMILAR FUNCTION TO RESOLVE THE CONFLICT.
