Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6

“MEIC is an organization that is supported, in part, through the payment of voluntary contributions. Members receive only insubstantial goods and services in exchange for their contributions, and therefore their payments are reported in Part VIII as contributions, not membership dues.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A

“Members, who are not divided into classes, elect all of the directors of the organization, although the Board may elect directors to fill vacancies until the next annual election”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7B

“Members must approve the provisions of the By-Laws relating to the number of directors, the terms of office of directors, and the manner in which directors are elected”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“A draft copy of Form 990 is provided to the Board of Directors and staff members for review and comments prior to filing”

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

“MEIC's conflict of interest policy covers all officers, directors, and key employees. These individuals are required to complete a potential conflict of interest form annually, and the forms are used to monitor any potential conflicts. Any conflicts are resolved by the Board. No one with a potential conflict is allowed to participate in any affected decisions”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“No Directors receive compensation from the organization. Key employees do. Each year the Board approves salaries as part of the budget adoption process. The decisions are documented in writing. The approval process includes a discussion or review of salaries for comparable positions in comparable organizations, but the review is informal because MEIC's salaries are known to be considerably below those of its peers.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“MEIC makes its governing documents and conflict of interest policy available on request, and posts its financial statements (as part of Form 990) on its website”
