The ACORD name and logo are registered marks of ACORD CAMACOL/LATIN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OF THE UNITED STATES CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY 1. PURPOSE The purpose of this Conflict of Interest Policy (the "Policy") is to protect the interests of CAMACOL - Latin Chamber of Commerce of the United States ("CAMACOL") in connection with any transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interests of any Covered Person. 2. PERSONS COVERED BY THE POLICY This policy addresses transactions and arrangements involving CAMACOL's directors, officers, members of any committee of CAMACOL's Board of Directors with authority to act on behalf of the Board of Directors, and CAMACOL's executive employees (e.g., Chief Financial Officer and any employee serving at the level of Vice President or above) and any other manager or supervisor identified by the Board of Directors or the President as exercising substantial influence over the operations of CAMACOL ("Covered Persons"). 3. DUTIES OF COVERED PERSONS a. Every Covered Person shall perform his or her duties for CAMACOL in good faith and with the degree of care that a reasonable person would exercise under similar circumstances. b. Recuse himself or herself from voting on any transaction or arrangement in which he or she has a potential or actual conflict of interest and shall not be present when any such vote is taken. 4. DISCLOSURE AND EVALUATION OF CONFLICTS Disclosure. Each Covered Person shall promptly and fully disclose all material facts of every actual or potential conflict of interest: All disclosures involving a transaction or arrangement being considered at a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee shall be made to all members present at such meeting. All other disclosures shall be made to the President (who shall disclose his or her conflicts to the Board of Directors). A Covered Person who is in doubt as to the existence of a conflict of interest is encouraged to disclose all facts pertaining to the transaction or arrangement before undertaking the transaction or arrangement or making any decision in the matter. a. A Covered Person who has an actual or potential conflict of interest shall not be present for or shall leave any portion of a meeting at which the Board of Directors or a committee is voting to determine whether a conflict exists, but may be present prior to the vote to make a presentation to the Board or committee, to disclose additional facts, or to respond to questions. b. In any case in which a Covered Person has a position as a director, trustee or officer of a Grant Applicant, the Board of Directors shall not be required to evaluate whether there is an actual or potential conflict of interest. The Covered Person who serves in such position shall not be present for and shall not participate (other than to answer questions raised by the disinterested directors or committee members) in any portion of a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board at which a grant to, or any other action concerning the Grant Applicant, is considered. This provision is intended to avoid conflicts in fiduciary obligations of the Covered Person owed to the Grant Applicant and to avoid any appearance of impropriety. 5. PROCEDURES FOR ACTING ON CONFLICT OF INTEREST TRANSACTIONS a. CAMACOL may enter into a transaction or arrangement in which a Covered Person has a conflict of interest if: (i) A majority of directors who have no interest in the transaction or arrangement approve the transaction or arrangement at a Board or committee meeting after determining, in good faith and after reasonable investigation, that the transaction or arrangement is fair and reasonable to CAMACOL and is in CAMACOL's best interest; (ii) Any Covered Person who has an actual or potential conflict with respect to the transaction or arrangement does not participate in and is not present for the vote regarding any such transaction or arrangement (provided, however, that any such Covered Person may appear at a meeting to answer questions concerning the transaction or arrangement); and b. Transaction Fair to CAMACOL. It shall not be a violation of this Policy if all the requirements for formal approval, outlined above, are not satisfied, so long as the transaction or arrangement is in fact fair to CAMACOL, furthers its tax- exempt purposes, and does not result in private inurement or impermissible private benefit under laws applicable to organizations exempt from federal income tax under the relevant section(s) of the Internal Revenue Code. 6. RECORDS OF PROCEEDINGS Content of Minutes. The minutes of the Board of Directors or any committee of the Board for any meetings described above shall contain: a. The names of the persons who disclosed an actual or potential conflict of interest or otherwise were found to have a conflict of interest; b. The nature of the conflict of interest; c. Any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present; d. The Board's or committee's decision as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed; e. The names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement; f. The content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement considered and any comparability data relied upon; and g. A record of any votes taken in connection with the issue, transaction, or arrangement. CERTIFICATE OF RATIFICATION The foregoing Conflict of Interest Policy was ratified by the Board of Directors of CAMACOL on the 26t"day of April, 2023, and shall be valid and enforceable until amended or replaced.
