Section 2210.109 - Disclosure of Conflicts(a) A member of the board of directors, or a member of a subcommittee of the board of directors that relates to underwriting and actuarial matters, shall disclose any potential conflict of interest of the member known by the member with respect to a matter for discussion or vote by the board or subcommittee, as applicable, before the discussion or vote. A potential conflict of interest is an interest that may reasonably be expected to diminish the member's independent judgment with respect to the matter for discussion or vote. Potential conflicts of interest required to be disclosed under this section include: (1) a financial or personal interest in an entity that may financially benefit from the outcome of the discussion or vote; and(2) holding an insurance policy issued by the association that may be affected by the discussion or vote.(b) A disclosure under this section must be made available to the public. A board or subcommittee member satisfies this requirement if: (1) with respect to an open meeting or meeting broadcast live on the association's Internet website, the member publicly discloses the conflict of interest in the meeting or during the broadcast; or(2) with respect to a meeting that is not an open meeting or broadcast live on the association's Internet website, the member discloses the conflict of interest in the agenda of the meeting and makes the agenda publicly available on the association's Internet website before the meeting.Tex.
