Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

The filer's explanations (Part III)

Part I, Line 1a
Joe Couceiro (President & CEO) and Mark Haney (Chief External Relations Officer) were provided University Club memberships for the primary purpose of partner/donor relations. These memberships are used for business purposes only and are not treated as taxbale income to the individual.
Part I, Line 5
Annual cash incentive awards are based on a predetermined dollar amount and percentage of base salary. The incentive award amounts are determined according to a sliding scale ranging from 50% to 150% of the target award amounts, based on achieving financial and other non-financial goals. If the goals are not met, the incentive award is not paid.
Part I, Line 6
Annual cash incentive awards are based on a predetermined dollar amount and percentage of base salary. The incentive award amounts are determined according to a sliding scale ranging from 50% to 150% of the target award amounts, based on achieving financial and other non-financial goals. If the goals are not met, the incentive award is not paid.

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
