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 1A
FIRST-CLASS OR CHARTER TRAVEL: THE UNIVERSITY USES CHARTER AIR TRAVEL PRIMARILY TO TRANSPORT THE FOOTBALL TEAM AND THE MEN'S AND WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TEAMS TO AWAY GAME VENUES. OCCASIONALLY, DUE TO TIME CONSTRAINTS, WEATHER CONCERNS, OR CLOSELY SEQUENCED COMMITMENTS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT MAY USE CHARTER AIR TRAVEL TO MEET PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES. TRAVEL IS TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME ON FORM W-2 IF NOT FOR BONA FIDE BUSINESS PURPOSES. TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS: TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS IS TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME ON FORM W-2. TAX INDEMNIFICATION AND GROSS-UP PAYMENTS: CERTAIN SENIOR OFFICERS AT THE UNIVERSITY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A HEALTH CARE PACKAGE UP TO A MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF $5,000 PER YEAR. THE REIMBURSEMENT IS "GROSSED-UP" FOR INCOME TAX PURPOSES. HOUSING ALLOWANCE OR RESIDENCE FOR PERSONAL USE: AS A CONDITION OF EMPLOYMENT, THE CHANCELLOR IS REQUIRED TO LIVE IN A RESIDENCE PROVIDED BY THE UNIVERSITY TO MEET WITH AND ENTERTAIN DONORS, PROSPECTIVE DONORS, INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORTERS, AND BUSINESS ASSOCIATES. USE OF THE RESIDENCE IS NOT CONSIDERED TAXABLE INCOME UNDER IRC SEC. 119(D). HEALTH OR SOCIAL CLUB DUES OR INITIATION FEES: BECAUSE CERTAIN OFFICERS OF THE UNIVERSITY ARE REQUIRED TO ENTERTAIN DONORS, PROSPECTIVE DONORS, INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORTERS, AND BUSINESS ASSOCIATES, CLUB MEMBERSHIPS ARE PROVIDED.
