THE BOARD WILL DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS, AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH CONFLICT MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTS THE INTERESTS OF THE CHAPTER. A COVERED OFFICIAL WHOSE POTENTIAL CONFLICT IS UNDER REVIEW MAY NOT DEBATE, VOTE, OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN SUCH DETERMINATION. IF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DETERMINES THAT AN ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST DOES EXIST, THE BOARD SHALL ALSO DETERMINE AN APPROPRIATE REMEDY. SUCH REMEDY MAY INCLUDE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE RECUSAL OF THE CONFLICTED COVERED OFFICIAL FROM PARTICIPATING IN CERTAIN MATTERS PENDING BEFORE THE BOARD.

COMPARABILITY DATA. WHEN THE APPROVAL BODY IS CONSIDERING COMPENSATION TO COVERED INDIVIDUALS, IT MUST RELY ON COMPARABILITY DATA THAT DEMONSTRATE THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE COMPENSATION IN QUESTION.

THIS DATA MAY INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: A)EXPTER COMPENSATION STUDIES BY INDEPENDENT FIRMS; B)WRITTEN JOB OFFERS FOR POSITIONS AT SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS; C)DOCUMENTED TELEPHONE CALLS ABOUT SIMILAR POSITIONS AT BOTH NONPROFIT AND FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS; AND D)INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE IRS FORM 990 FILINGS OF SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS. 3. CONCURRENT DOCUMENTATION. THE APPROVAL BODY MUST DOCUMENT HOW IT REACHED ITS DECISIONS, INCLUDING THE DATA ON WHICH IT RELIED. TO QUALIFY AS CONCURRENT DOCUMENTATION, WRITTEN OR ELECTRONIC RECORDS OF THE APPROVAL BODY (SUCH AS MEETING MINUTES) MUST NOTE: A)THE TERMS OF THE COMPENSATION AND THE DATA IT WAS APPROVED; B)THE MEMBERS OF THE APPROVAL BODY WHO WERE PRESENT DURING THE DEBATE ON THE COMPENSATION THAT WAS APPROVED AND THOSE WHO VOTED ON IT; C)THE COMPARABILITY DATA OBTAINED AND RELIED UPON AND HOW THE DATA WERE OBTAINED; AND D)ANY ACTIONS TAKEN WITH RESPECT TO CONSIDERATION OF THE COMPENSATION BY ANYONE WHO IS OTHERWISE A MEMBER OF THE APPROVAL BODY BUT WHO HAD A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE DECISION ON THE COMPENSATION.
