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

  • 4b · Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan

Answered no

  • 4a · Severance or change-of-control payment
  • 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
  • 7 · Other non-fixed payments
  • 8 · Paid under the initial-contract exception

C-SPAN EDUCATION FOUNDATION DID NOT COMPENSATE ANY CURRENT OFFICER, DIRECTOR, OR TRUSTEE. A RELATED ORGANIZATION (SEE SCHEDULE R) PAYS CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS LISTED ON PART VII, SECTION A AND SCHEDULE J, PART II FOR WORK PERFORMED FOR THAT ORGANIZATION. NO COMPENSATION IS PAID BY THE RELATED ORGANIZATION TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS FOR WORK PERFORMED FOR THIS ORGANIZATION.
PART I, LINE 4B
(RELATED ORGANIZATION) CERTAIN OFFICERS OR TRUSTEES ARE PARTICIPANTS (AS EMPLOYEES OF A RELATED ORGANIZATION) IN INELIGIBLE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS AS DESCRIBED IN IRC SECTION 457(F) WHICH ARE MAINTAINED BY THE RELATED ORGANIZATION AS SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLANS. THE PARTICIPANTS' RIGHTS UNDER THE SECTION 457(F) PLANS ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL RISKS OF FORFEITURE (INCLUDING CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT WITH THE RELATED ORGANIZATION FOR SPECIFIED FUTURE PERIODS AND THE PERFORMANCE OF SUBSTANTIAL FUTURE SERVICES). UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THE PARTICIPANTS MAY RENEW AND EXTEND THEIR DEFERRALS INSTEAD OF RECEIVING PAYMENT. AMOUNTS INCLUDED IN SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN (C) REPRESENT CURRENT-YEAR EMPLOYEE DEFERRALS IN THE 457(F) PLANS AND THE RELATED ORGANIZATION CONTRIBUTIONS TO A 403(B) QUALIFIED PLAN.
