such fiscal year was less than the greater of $1 million or 2% of the organization’s
consolidated gross revenues for that year;
(ii) If the director is, or has an immediate family member who is, a director or trustee of
any organization to which the Company has made, or from which the Company has
received payments for property or services, and the director (or his/her immediate
family member) was not involved in the negotiations of the terms of the transaction,
did not, to the extent applicable, provide any services directly to the Company, and
did not receive any special benefits as a result of the transaction; or
(iii) If the director, or an immediate family member of the director, serves as an officer,
director or trustee of a foundation, university, charitable or other not-for-profit
organization, and the Company’s discretionary charitable contributions to the
