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 3
- THE PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION IS BASED ON SALARY GUIDELINES BASED ON ESTABLISHED RANGES FOR DIFFERENT ROLES/TITLES AND YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. WE USE NY BASED NONPROFIT SALARY REPORTS TO SET THESE BASELINES, WHICH ARE APPROVED BY THE BOARD. RAISES ARE SUGGESTED BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/CEO AND THEN APPROVED BY THE BOARD'S EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/CEO'S SALARY AND ANY ANNUAL RAISES ARE SET BY THE BOARD CHAIR, FINANCE CHAIR, AND GOVERNANCE CHAIR (COMPENSATION COMMITTEE) AND ARE ALSO COMPARED WITH THE NY BASED NONPROFIT SALARY REPORT FOR ORGANIZATIONS OUR SIZE. RAISES FOR EMPLOYEES AND CEO GENERALLY RANGE EACH YEAR FROM 0-5% BASED ON PERFORMANCE AS WELL AS EQUITY FACTORS (E.G., LOWEST PAID EMPLOYEES GETTING A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OR MAKING ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON INDUSTRY NORMS).
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.
