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.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 1A:
GROSS-UP PAYMENTS - IF AN EMPLOYEE REACHES THE IRS LIMITATION FOR EMPLOYER RETIREMENT CONTRIBUTIONS, THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDES A GROSS UP PAYMENT EQUIVALENT TO THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MAX AMOUNT AND THE AMOUNT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN CONTRIBUTED IF THERE WERE NO LIMITATIONS.

THE CHARTER OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE PROVIDES FOR A PROCEDURE THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND BEST PRACTICES. THE CHARTER PROVIDES THAT THE COMMITTEE "SHALL MAKE A RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION FOR THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER."

THE COMMITTEE SUBMITS TO THE BOARD A RECOMMENDATION FOR THE CEO'S COMPENSATION FOR EACH FISCAL YEAR. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS MAKES THE FINAL DECISION ON THE CEO'S COMPENSATION.

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.
