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

  • 3 · Approval by the board or compensation committee
  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 4c · Equity-based compensation arrangement

The filer's explanations (Part III)

PART I, LINE 4B
AS PART OF A SERP WITH THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER (CEO), THE CREDIT UNION ENTERED INTO A COLLATERAL ASSIGNMENT SPLIT DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE ARRANGEMENT (THE ARRANGEMENT) WITH THE CEO WHEREBY THE CEO PURCHASED A WHOLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY (THE POLICY) WITH A TEN-YEAR PREMIUM PAYMENT SCHEDULE. UNDER THE ARRANGEMENT, THE CEO BORROWED THE FIRST FIVE YEARS AND NINTH AND TENTH YEARS OF PREMIUMS FROM THE CREDIT UNION. PREMIUMS FOR YEARS SIX, SEVEN AND EIGHT WERE BORROWED AGAINST THE INSURANCE POLICY VALUE. THESE THREE LOANS WERE FULLY PAID OFF IN 2017. THE CREDIT UNION'S LOAN RECEIVABLE IS COLLATERALIZED BY THE CASH SURRENDER VALUE AND DEATH BENEFIT OF THE POLICY VIA A MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CREDIT UNION AND CEO.
