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)

PART I, LINE 7
EACH YEAR THE CEO (WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF ASTRON, NYCEEC'S HR CONSULTANT) DOES AN ANALYSIS OF COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS TO TRY TO EVALUATE WHAT IS "MARKET" FOR THAT YEAR IN TERMS OF OVERALL COMPENSATION NUMBERS, TRENDS, ETC. A SLIDE-DECK LAYING OUT THIS ANALYSIS AND MAKING ASTRON'S RECOMMENDATIONS (DEVELOPED IN CONSULTATION WITH THE CEO) FOR THE OVERALL STAFF COMPENSATION PROGRAM/STRATEGY IS PRESENTED TO THE BOARDS' GOVERNANCE AND HUMAN RESOURCE COMMITTEE, ALONG WITH ASTRON'S RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE EXECUTIVES' COMPENSATION (WHICH INCLUDES BONUSES). AT THE MEETING, THE COMMITTEE DISCUSSES THE ANALYSIS AND PROPOSED STAFF COMPENSATION PLAN WITH ASTRON AND THE CEO. THE COMMITTEE APPROVES THE OVERALL STAFF COMPENSATION PROGRAM/STRATEGY AND LEAVES IT TO THE CEO TO LATER DETERMINE THE SPECIFIC DETAILS OF EACH EMPLOYEE'S PARTICULAR COMPENSATION FOR THE APPLICABLE YEAR. THE COMMITTEE ALSO REVIEWS, DISCUSSES (JUST WITH ASTRON) AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROVING THE EXECUTIVES' COMPENSATION AS WELL. NO NYCEEC EMPLOYEE OR MEMBER OF MANAGEMENT IS PRESENT FOR THE COMMITTEE'S REVIEW OR APPROVAL OF THE EXECUTIVES' COMPENSATION. THIS ANNUAL PROCESS IS IN ADDITION TO BENCHMARKING EXERCISES THAT ASTRON PERFORMS ON BEHALF OF NYCEEC MANAGEMENT EVERY FEW YEARS TO TRY TO ASCERTAIN COMPENSATION LEVELS FOR NYCEEC ROLES AT COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS BASED UPON NYCEEC JOB DESCRIPTIONS. THESE PRACTICES ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF NYCEEC'S BY-LAWS (SECTION 3.03) AND THE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES MANUAL (SECTION 12.4.2). SPECIFICALLY, UNDER NYCEEC'S BY-LAWS, THE COMMITTEE HAS GENERAL OVERSIGHT AND APPROVAL AUTHORITY OVER STAFF COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS PROGRAMS AND THE OVERALL COMPENSATION STRATEGY. THE COMMITTEE IS NOT, HOWEVER, CHARGED WITH REVIEWING OR APPROVING SPECIFIC COMPENSATION NUMBERS FOR NYCEEC'S STAFF; THAT FUNCTION IS RESERVED FOR THE CEO. UNDER THE BY-LAWS, HOWEVER, THE COMMITTEE ITSELF IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF NYCEEC'S EXECUTIVES (I.E. THE "DISQUALIFIED PERSONS") AND APPROVING THEIR COMPENSATION AMOUNTS, WHICH INCLUDES BONUSES.
