The filer's explanations (Part III)

Part I, Line 7

The Executive Review and Compensation Committee is composed of six independent board members. A written evaluation is prepared after input has been solicited from all board members. Performance is gauged on the evaluation and particularly against specific targets that were predefined by the board. The committee reviews compensation data supplied by an outside compensation consultant based on organizations of similar size. Additionally, the committee looks at 990 data from other similar organizations.

Part II - Deferred Compensation Plan

In 2015, the organization adopted a deferred compensation agreement for the Chief Executive Officer under Internal Revenue Code 457. The organization's reserve under the deferred compensation plan totaled $328,524 for the year ended June 30, 2024, and is included in accrued expenses together with an amount representing investment earnings on the unpaid balance. This amount represents five years' worth of contributions/disbursements. The employee will have no rights nor will be paid until five years following each contribution date provided the employee has been employed by the organization continuously until that time.
