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)

SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 7 NON-FIXED PAYMENTS
ALL BONUSES HAVE A WRITTEN JUSTIFICATION. BONUSES ARE APPROVED BY VICE PRESIDENTS FOR THEIR STAFFS AND APPROVED BY THE NEXT LEVEL EXECUTIVE (PRESIDENTS, CEO OR CFO) MAKING SURE THAT THE BONUSES ARE EQUITABLE AND REASONABLE AND WITHIN THE ALLOTTED POOL OF MONEY. EACH EXECUTIVE'S COMPLETE SET OF DATA IS THEN PRESENTED TO THE CEO FOR APPROVAL. THE CEO DESIGNATES BONUSES FOR VPS AND ABOVE. THE PEOPLE AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES REVIEWS THE CEO'S DIRECT REPORTS AND APPROVES THEM AS WELL AS DESIGNATING ANY BONUS FOR THE CEO. THE BONUS PAYMENTS WERE BASED ON: 1) SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE: IN RECOGNITION OF VARIOUS FORMS OF PERFORMANCE ABOVE AND BEYOND EXPECTATIONS. EXAMPLES OF SUCH ACTIONS ARE: PERFORMING WORK THAT HAS A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON A CLIENT'S DECISION OR GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCE; TURNING A BAD CLIENT RELATIONSHIP INTO A GOOD ONE THROUGH UNUSUAL EFFORTS; MAKING A SIGNIFICANT PERSONAL SACRIFICE TO SUPPORT CNA OBJECTIVES; MAKING CNA SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EFFICIENT THROUGH CREATIVE MANAGERIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS; EFFORTS OF ATTRACTING FUNDING WITH EXISTING AND NEW SPONSORS; ACHIEVING ANALYTICAL EXCELLENCE OF AN OUT-OF-THE-ORDINARY MANNER. NORMALLY, SUSTAINED SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE IS NOT A CRITERION FOR THIS AWARD. 2) BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT: IN RECOGNITION OF UNCOMMON EFFORTS TO ATTRACT ABOVE-CEILING AND ABOVE-CORE BUSINESS. IN CERTAIN CASES, A PORTION OF A BONUS AWARD MAY BE EARNED EVEN IF THE EFFORT DOES NOT RESULT IN NEW BUSINESS. THE DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY INVOLVED IN PURSUING THE NEW BUSINESS AND THE DEGREE OF SUCCESS IN ACQUIRING NEW BUSINESS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. DIRECTORSOFFICERS' LIABILITY INSURANCE PREMIUMS HAVE BEEN PAID BY THE ORGANIZATION. BENEFIT IS BEING REPORTED IN TOTAL AND IS NOT SHOWN IN THE ALLOCATION OF PART VII/SCHEDULE J. THE CURRENT YEAR PREMIUM IS $24,091.

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.
