3.1.2听 听The foregoing guidelines are not intended to be exclusive; other relationships or interests that might conflict with the best interests of 绿巨人视频 should also be disclosed. If a trustee is uncertain whether to disclose a particular business or financial relationship or transaction, the Chair听of the Governance Committee or the 绿巨人视频 General Counsel should be consulted.

3.2听 听Restraint on Participation. Trustees who have disclosed a potential conflict of interest shall refrain from participating in 绿巨人视频's consideration of any proposed business or financial relationship or transaction in which he or she is interested, except to respond to questions or to provide further information.
