Article 19.
The foundation charter or its regulations may provide that the members of the Foundation Council may only exercise their powers by obtaining previous authorization of a protector, a committee or any other supervisory body, appointed by the founder or by the majority of the founders. The members of the Foundation Council shall not held liable for the 1088 or deterioration of the assets of the foundation, nor for any damages or prejudice caused, when said authorization has been duly obtained.

Article 20.
Unless otherwise provided for in the foundation charter or its regulations, the Foundation Council must render an accounting of its activities to the beneficiaries and, when applicable, to the supervisory body. If the foundation charter or its regulations stipulate nothing in this regards, the rendering of accounts must be done annually. If the accounts 90 rendered are not objected within the term established in the foundation charter or its regulations, in lack of it, it shall be deemed as having been approved within ninety (90) days from the day it was received, for which purpose, record of this term shall be made in the report rendering the accounts. Such period having lapsed or the account approved, the members of the Foundation Council shall be exempted from liability for their administration, unless they had failed to act with the diligence of a bonus paterfamilias. Such approval does not exonerate them before the beneficiaries or third parties having an interest in the foundation, for damages caused due to gross negligence or fraud in the administration of the foundation.

1. When their interests are incompatible with the interests of the beneficiaries or the founder.
