S.C. Code Ann. § 44-7-3160: Personal profiting prohibited.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, upon approval of the proposed lease and sale of Medical University of South Carolina facilities and assets, no one who is currently an employee of MUSC or UMA may personally profit from the transaction by accepting compensation or other financial incentives from the purchasing and/or leasing company if that individual played a substantial role in the negotiation process. As used in this section "substantial role" means a role where one is providing direct advice to the members of a negotiating team or being a member of a negotiating team.
