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 1A
FIRST-CLASS TRAVEL AND TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS CERTAIN DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS RECEIVED FIRST CLASS AIR TRAVEL AND TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS. IT IS THE ORGANIZATION'S POLICY TO TREAT THE ABOVE ITEMS AS TAXABLE COMPENSATION AND REPORT THE APPLICABLE AMOUNTS TO THE IRS ON FORM W-2 OR FORM 1099-NEC FOR THE APPLICABLE TAX YEAR.
PART I, LINE 3
ESTABLISHED COMPENSATION THE COMPENSATION LEVELS AND SALARY RANGES FOR OFFICERS AND CERTAIN EMPLOYEES OF THE ORGANIZATION ARE ESTABLISHED BASED ON COMPETITIVE MARKET DATA OBTAINED THROUGH PERIODIC SALARY SURVEYS PERFORMED BY OUTSIDE COMPENSATION EXPERTS ENGAGED BY THE ORGANIZATION. THESE INDEPENDENT SURVEYS PROVIDE GUIDANCE FOR ESTABLISHING REASONABLE COMPENSATION RATES AS COMPARED TO COMPENSATION PAID BY SIMILARLY SITUATED ORGANIZATIONS FOR POSITIONS OF SIMILAR SCOPE OF RESPONSIBILITY. ALL POSITIONS ARE EVALUATED AND PLACED IN THE APPROPRIATE GRADES/SALARY RANGES. AN INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEE'S SALARY, WITHIN THEIR ASSIGNED RANGE, VARIES DEPENDING PRIMARILY UPON EXPERIENCE AND PERFORMANCE. THE ORGANIZATION HAS ADOPTED A "PAY FOR PERFORMANCE" PHILOSOPHY ALLOWING MANAGERS TO AWARD MERIT INCREASES BASED ON AN INDIVIDUAL'S PERFORMANCE AGAINST PRE-ESTABLISHED GOALS. THE ORGANIZATION'S ANNUAL MERIT INCREASE BUDGET IS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES BASED ON MARKET SURVEYS. OFFICERS AND CERTAIN EMPLOYEES ALSO PARTICIPATE IN THE ORGANIZATION'S INCENTIVE PAY PROGRAM.
PART I, LINES 4A-B
SEVERANCE PAYMENTS ONE LISTED INDIVIDUAL RECEIVED SEVERANCE PAYMENTS IN CALENDAR YEAR 2022. THESE AMOUNTS ARE REPORTED IN SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN B (III). NONQUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN MARK BAKER AND JAMES COON BOTH PARTICIPATED IN A SUPPLEMENTAL NONQUALIFIED 457(F) PLAN, WHICH IS INCLUDED IN PART II, COLUMN C. THE 2022 CONTRIBUTION TO THIS PLAN WAS $150,000 FOR MARK BAKER AND $50,000 FOR JAMES COON.
PART I, LINE 7
NONFIXED PAYMENTS TARGET INCENTIVE AMOUNTS, AS A PERCENTAGE OF BASE SALARY, ARE ESTABLISHED BASED ON THE PARTICIPANT'S POSITION. THE ACTUAL BONUS PAID IS PROPOSED BY THE EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT TEAM AND THE PRESIDENT BASED ON THEIR ASSESSMENT OF THE PARTICIPANT'S INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE AND THAT OF THE ORGANIZATION AGAINST PRE-ESTABLISHED GOALS. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REVIEW AND MAKE A FINAL DETERMINATION AS TO THE ACTUAL BONUS AMOUNT PAID TO PARTICIPANTS. NONE OF THE PERSONS MENTIONED ABOVE PARTICIPATE IN THE DELIBERATION OF THEIR COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT. THE DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS OF THESE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS ARE MAINTAINED IN CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTATION WITH OUR HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT.
PART I, LINE 8
CONTRACTS THE PRESIDENT/CEO IS PAID PURSUANT TO A BOARD APPROVED EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT THAT WAS BASED ON COMPETITIVE MARKET DATA FROM OUTSIDE COMPENSATION EXPERTS.
