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 — 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 4B
THE ORGANIZATION'S CEO, PAUL HOFFMAN, PARTICIPATES IN A SUPPLEMENTAL NON-QUALIFIED RETIREMENT PLAN. HE DID NOT RECEIVE A PAYMENT FROM THIS PLAN DURING THE YEAR.
PART I, LINE 7
THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDED NON-FIXED PERFORMANCE BONUS PAYMENTS IN ADDITION TO SALARY ON A DISCRETIONARY BASIS TO CERTAIN EMPLOYEES, INCLUDING THOSE LISTED IN PART VII. THESE PERFORMANCE BONUS PAYMENTS WERE APPROVED BY THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES IN CONSIDERATION OF A VARIETY OF FACTORS INCLUDING PERFORMANCE AND RESULTS OF PERFORMANCE, CURRENT COMPENSATION AS COMPARED TO MARKET RATES, AND RESPONSIBILITIES ASSUMED OUTSIDE OF NORMAL JOB DUTIES.

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.
