Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

The form 990 is reviewed and approved by the board via finance and investment committees prior to its filing. The form 990 is then authorized and signed by the organization's president.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

The board of trustees requires an annual declaration from all trustees and senior management as to the existence and disclosure of any potential conflicts of interest. The trustees sign a disclosure statement. Any potential conflicts are discussed by the dis-interested trustees, while the party in potential conflict is required to leave the room. Board meeting minutes will document the discussion and decision making process. In the event of a potential conflict, procedures to obtain competitive bids and diligence on fair market value will be established.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Mhs's executive compensation program is administered by the board of trustees through its executive committee. The executive committee is responsible for establishing and maintaining a competitive compensation program for the key executives of the organization. The committee meets as needed to review the compensation program and make recommendations for any changes to the board, as appropriate. A performance evaluation is conducted and reviewed each year and is intended to ensure that the compensation program falls within a reasonable range of competitive practices for comparable positions among similarly situated organizations. Following this review, the committee reviews and approves, for selected key executives, base salaries and annual incentive opportunity adjustments, and objectives and goals forth-upcoming year's annual incentive plan. The committee reviews and recommends to the board salary approval and incentive awards for selected key senior staff.
