Acknowledgment

I have received and read the Conflict of Interest Policy. To the best of my knowledge, this disclosure is complete and accurate. I agree to update it promptly when circumstances change, disclose relevant interests before a decision, and follow the required recusal and independent review process. I understand that a disclosure is not itself approval of a transaction.
