§ 81.840. Duties of managers
1. A manager owes to the unincorporated nonprofit association and to its members the
fiduciary duties of loyalty and care. 2. A manager shall manage the unincorporated nonprofit association in good faith,
in a manner the manager reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the association,
and with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as a prudent person would reasonably
exercise in a similar position and under similar circumstances. A manager may rely in good faith upon any opinion, report, statement or other information
provided by another person that the manager reasonably believes is a competent and
reliable source for the information. 3. After full disclosure of all material facts, a specific act or transaction that
would otherwise violate the duty of loyalty by a manager may be authorized or ratified
by a majority of the members that are not interested directly or indirectly in the
act or transaction. 4. A manager that makes a business judgment in good faith satisfies the duties specified
in subsection 1 if the manager: (a) Is not interested, directly or indirectly, in the subject of the business judgment
and is otherwise able to exercise independent judgment; (b) Is informed with respect to the subject of the business judgment to the extent
the manager reasonably believes to be appropriate under the circumstances; and (c) Believes that the business judgment is in the best interests of the unincorporated
nonprofit association and in accordance with its purposes. 5. The governing principles in a record may limit or eliminate the liability of a
manager to the unincorporated nonprofit association or its members for damages for
any action taken, or for failure to take any action, as a manager, except liability
for: (a) The amount of financial benefit improperly received by a manager; (b) An intentional infliction of harm on the association or one or more of its members; (c) An intentional violation of criminal law; (d) Breach of the duty of loyalty; or (e) Improper distributions.
