IF A POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST ARISES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CONTRACT OR TRANSACTION PROPOSED FOR APPROVAL BY THE BOARD, REGARDLESS OF AMOUNT (AN INTERESTED PARTY CONTRACT), THE BOARD OR A COMMITTEE DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD SHALL REVIEW THE INTERESTED PARTY CONTRACT (AND POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVES TO SUCH CONTRACT) AND SHALL RECOMMEND WHETHER BRIC SHOULD ENTER INTO SUCH CONTRACT. IF A BOARD COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT BRIC DOES NOT EXECUTE SUCH CONTRACT, THE BOARD MAY NONETHELESS REVIEW SUCH CONTRACT AND MAY, BY MAJORITY VOTE OF THE DISINTERESTED DIRECTORS ENTITLED TO VOTE ON THE MATTER, AUTHORIZE BRIC TO EXECUTE SUCH CONTRACT.
