Select “No” if a potential conflict of interest does not exist.

Select “None known” only if (a) it is unduly burdensome to discover the correct response for reasons such as your workforce is so large that it is unreasonable to ascertain whether any potential conflict of interest exists and (b) you in fact do not have knowledge of any potential conflict of interest.
