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, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — 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.

Schedule J

Answered yes

None.

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
  • 4c · Equity-based compensation arrangement
  • 5a · Pay contingent on this organization's revenues
  • 5b · Pay contingent on a related organization's revenues
  • 6a · Pay contingent on this organization's net earnings
  • 6b · Pay contingent on a related organization's net earnings
  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments
  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

The filer's explanations (Part III)

SCHEDULE J, PART II
COMPENSATION FOR SCOTT NELSON WAS PAID BY ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION, AN UNRELATED ORGANIZATION. COMPENSATION FOR FRANK FERRARA AND DANIEL WAKELY WAS PAID BY ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY, AN UNRELATED ORGANIZATION. THEY SPEND APPROXIMATELY 15% OF THEIR TIME ON ACTIVITIES RELATED TO SUN ANGEL FOUNDATION. THE AMOUNT SHOWN IN PART VII, SECTION A DOES NOT REFLECT THE AMOUNT REPORTED ON THEIR W-2, BOX 5 OR THEIR NON-TAXABLE BENEFITS. THE AMOUNT SHOWN IN PART VII IS 15% OF THEIR TOTAL COMPENSATION AS REPORTED ON THEIR W-2, BOX 5 AND 15% OF THEIR NON-TAXABLE BENEFITS.

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.
