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.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN (SERP) 457(F): THE ORGANIZATION RELIES ON AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT, SURVEYS, WELL DOCUMENTED METHODS AND BOARD APPROVAL TO ESTABLISH TOTAL COMPENSATION OF THE CEO AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. CERTAIN BOARD APPROVED EMPLOYEES ARE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A SERP THAT PROVIDES CERTAIN DEFINED ANNUAL PAY CREDITS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF FORFEITURE. THE PURPOSE OF THE SERP IS TO PROVIDE A LONG-TERM INCENTIVE AND RETIREMENT BENEFIT FOR AFFECTED EXECUTIVES CONSISTENT WITH THE BENEFIT AVAILABLE TO EMPLOYEES NOT IMPACTED BY IRS COMPENSATION LIMITS ON DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS. THE AMOUNTS REPORTED AS SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT COMPENSATION FOR ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES IN SCHEDULE J REPRESENT CREDITED, BUT NOT VESTED, BENEFITS, AND THE AMOUNTS ARE AVAILABLE IN FUTURE PERIODS TO THE EMPLOYEE SUBJECT TO CONTINUING EMPLOYMENT.

GRANDFATHERED PARTICIPANTS WITH PAY CREDITS FOR PLAN YEARS BEGINNING ON OR AFTER 1/1/2020, EACH YEARS ANNUAL PAY CREDIT PLUS SUBSEQUENT EARNINGS AND/OR LOSSES WILL VEST AFTER 5 YEARS OF CONTINUOUS EMPLOYMENT. EACH CONTRIBUTION IS SUBJECT TO A SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT 5 YEAR CONTINUOUS EMPLOYMENT REQUIREMENT. FOR PARTICIPANTS INITIALLY PARTICIPATING IN THE SERP AFTER 12/31/2016 (A CONTEMPORARY PARTICIPANT), EACH YEARS ANNUAL PAY CREDIT PLUS SUBSEQUENT EARNINGS AND/OR LOSSES WILL 100% VEST ON THAT PAY CREDITS' 5TH ANNIVERSARY, PROVIDED THAT THE PARTICIPANT REMAINS IN THE CONTINUOUS EMPLOYMENT THROUGHOUT THE 5-YEAR PERIOD FOR EACH ANNUAL PAY CREDIT. IF ANY ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT ATTAINS NORMAL RETIREMENT AGE PRIOR TO SEPARATION FROM SERVICE, THEY SHALL VEST IN 100% OF THE ACCOUNT BALANCE. ONCE VESTED, EACH PARTICIPANT SHALL RECEIVE A DISTRIBUTION OF THEIR ENTIRE VESTED AMOUNT WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED 2.5 MONTHS. THIS DISTRIBUTION IS TREATED AS REPORTABLE COMPENSATION TO THE PARTICIPANT AND IS INCLUDED IN PART II, COLUMN B(III). THEREFORE, PART II, COLUMN B(III) INCLUDES PRIOR YEAR SERP DEFERRALS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED IN PART II, COLUMN C. ANY DISTRIBUTION AMOUNT INCLUDED IN PART II, COLUMN B(III) THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED IN PRIOR PERIODS AS DEFERRED COMPENSATION IN PART II, COLUMN C IS DISCLOSED IN PART II, COLUMN F.
