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.

Schedule J

Answered yes

  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments

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
  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

The filer's explanations (Part III)

SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 7:
2023 VARIABLE COMPENSATION AWARDS WERE DETERMINED BY THE CEO AND CFO, INPUT FROM MANAGEMENT UNDER THE VARIABLE COMPENSATION PROGRAM. AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, THE CEO DETERMINES TARGET AWARDS (ALL TARGETS AND AWARDS ARE BASED ON A PERCENTAGE OF YEAR-END BASE COMPENSATION) FOR POSITIONS WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION. ALL FULL-TIME STAFF RECEIVED VARIABLE COMPENSATION TARGETS BETWEEN 4% AND 20% (THE CEO'S TARGET IS ESTABLISHED IN HIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT). AT THE END OF THE YEAR, THE CEO, WITH INPUT FROM MANAGERS DETERMINES THE FINAL AWARDS. PERFORMANCE OF THE INTERNET SOCIETY AS A WHOLE AND OF THE INDIVIDUAL ARE THE BASIS FOR THESE AWARDS. THE CEO'S PERFORMANCE AND AWARD ARE DETERMINED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ACCORDING TO GOALS ESTABLISHED BY THE BOARD. FURTHER, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION COMMITTEE APPROVES VARIABLE COMPENSATION FOR DISQUALIFIED PERSONS.

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.
