CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Since January 1, 2019, there have be no transactions and there are no currently proposed transactions in which the Corporation was or is a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any related person (as defined under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
The Audit Committee reviews related party transactions as such term is defined under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter. The Audit Committee evaluates all such transactions and determines whether or not it serves the best interest of the Corporation and its stockholders and whether the relationship should be continued or eliminated. In addition, SJW Group has a written Related Party Transactions Policy which provides that any request for review submitted to the Audit Committee must describe the material terms of the proposed transaction and the related party's interest. Such policy further provides that when review of a related party transaction is required between regular Audit Committee meetings, the Audit Committee may do so at a special telephonic committee meeting or by written consent (including by email).
