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
TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT POLICY - THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE HAS A WRITTEN POLICY REGARDING TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT. THE ADL CHAIR REVIEWS A PERIODIC STATEMENT OF THE ADL FOUNDATION TRUSTEE/ADL CEO/NATIONAL DIRECTOR'S EXPENSE REPORTS. HEALTH REIMBURSEMENT - ADL PROVIDES REIMBURSEMENT TO JONATHAN GREENBLATT, TRUSTEE, FOR GYM MEMBERSHIP FEES WHICH ARE TAXABLE AND REPORTED IN HIS W-2.
PART I, LINE 4B
IN 2012, ADL AND THE ADL FOUNDATION FINALIZED A SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN (SERP) BENEFIT FOR ABRAHAM H. FOXMAN, ADL'S NATIONAL DIRECTOR FROM 1987 UNTIL 2017. IT WAS IN RECOGNITION OF HIS SIGNIFICANT VALUE TO ADL AND THE ADL FOUNDATION AT THAT TIME AND GOING FORWARD AND HIS FIFTY YEARS OF INVALUABLE AND TIRELESS SERVICE, INCLUDING 25 YEARS AS A NATIONAL DIRECTOR. THE SERP IS A RETIREMENT BENEFIT THAT IS PAID OUT OVER TIME. INDEPENDENT EXPERTS ADVISED THAT THE SERP (AND THE OVERALL COMPENSATORY PACKAGE) WAS REASONABLE IN LIGHT OF MARKET COMPARABILITY DATA. THE SERP WAS APPROVED BY A FULLY INDEPENDENT ADL AND ADL FOUNDATION JOINT EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. $14,100 WAS TAXABLE ON THE 2022 FORM W-2.
PART I, LINE 7
A ONE-TIME PERFORMANCE BONUS PAYMENT WAS MADE TO INDIVIDUALS. THESE ARE REPORTED IN COLUMN (B)(II). NON-FIXED PAYMENTS ARE THE COMBINED AMOUNTS FROM THE FILING ORGANIZATION AND THE RELATED ORGANIZATIONS.

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.
