§ 8895. Standard of conduct for members
(3) shall not be required to give priority to any matter referred to in paragraph (1) or (2) over any other such matter or to regard any such matter as dominant or controlling unless the benefit company has stated in its certificate of organization its intention to give priority to certain interests related to its accomplishment of its general public benefit purpose or of a specific public benefit purpose identified in the certificate.
(d) Limitation on standing.--A member of a member-managed limited liability company that is a benefit company does not have a duty to a person that is a beneficiary of the general public benefit purpose or a specific public benefit purpose of the benefit company arising from the status of the person as a beneficiary.
(e) Ownership of interest.--A member's ownership, directly or indirectly, of an interest in a benefit company does not alone create a conflict of interest on the part of the member with respect to the member's performance of the duties of a member under subsection (a), except to the extent the ownership would create a conflict of interest if the limited liability company were not a benefit company.
