THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE IS SUBJECT TO THE DIRECTION AND CONTROL OF THE BOARD, AND HAS THE POWER TO TRANSACT SUCH AFFAIRS OF CATA AND CARRY OUT SUCH DUTIES AS ASSIGNED OR DELEGATED TO IT FROM TIME TO TIME BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 6 Classes of members or stockholders

“The Chicago Automobile Trade Association is made up of dues paying members elected into the organization by the majority of the Board of Directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 7A Members or stockholders electing members of governing body

“In all elections for the board of directors, each member is entitled to vote for one candidate for each office to be filled.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B Review of form 990 by governing body

“Prior to filing the return with the IRS, a draft of the completed form 990 is reviewed by the organization's management with its independent paid tax preparers. After the review, final copies of the form 990 are presented to the organization's executive committee. Subsequent to this review, the completed and final form 990 is distributed to the full board for review and is subsequently filed with the IRS.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12C Conflict of interest policy

“Annually, the organization distributes a conflict of interest policy to all interested persons to determine if any potential or actual conflicts of interest exist. Prior to the end of the June board of directors meeting, all interested persons are required to sign and return a completed conflict of interest policy. The CATA executive committee is charged with reviewing the completed policies to determine whether an actual conflict of interest exists. The executive committee is empowered to assess the degree of the conflict, if one exists, and to take appropriate action. Possible actions that can be taken by the executive committee include: notice to the finance and compensation committee prior to conducting the annual employee review, or recusal of from any discussions, vote, or similar actions related to the conflict.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15A Process to establish compensation of top management official

“The Executive Compensation Committee of the Board meets annually in April to evaluate and determine appropriate compensation of the President, other officers, and key employees. In its deliberation, the committee considers current economic and related conditions, and may use comparisons of other Trade Associations and Exhibit companies. Additionally, the organization engaged an independent compensation consultant to assist in determining the appropriateness of the compensation of the President, which included the use of a compensation survey. The results of the review are approved by the board and documented in the meeting minutes.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15B Process to establish compensation of other employees

“See response to form 990 part VI line 15a.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Required documents available to the public

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote

“The Association is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code, and accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the financial statements. The Association follows guidance issued by the FASB with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more-likely-than-not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Association recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and income tax expenses, respectively. The Association has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of June 30, 2016 and 2015. Due to its status as a Section 501(c)(6) entity, the Association is not subject to U.S. federal income tax or state income tax. The Association is no longer subject to examination by U.S. federal taxing authorities for years before 2013 and for all state income taxes through 2013. The Association does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months.”

CURRENTLY, CATA DEALERSHIPS EMPLOY MORE THAN 50,000 PEOPLE IN CHICAGOLAND. OVER THE PAST CENTURY, THESE LOCALLY BASED SMALL BUSINESSES HAVE PROVIDED GOOD PAYING JOBS FOR THEIR EMPLOYEES, WHO, IN TURN, CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR COMMUNITIES. THE CATA'S COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE IN AUTOMOTIVE RETAILING REMAINS ITS CORE VALUE AND WILL REMAIN SO THROUGH THE NEXT CENTURY. FIRST STAGED IN 1901, THE CHICAGO AUTO SHOW IS THE LARGEST AUTO SHOW IN NORTH AMERICA AND HAS BEEN HELD MORE TIMES THAN ANY OTHER AUTO EXPOSITION ON THE CONTINENT. 2008 MARKED THE 100TH EDITION OF THE SHOW. SINCE 1935, CATA HAS HAD THE HONOR OF PRESENTING THE CHICAGO AUTO SHOW. OVER THE YEARS IT HAS GROWN WITH THE CITY MOVING FROM THE COLISEUM TO THE INTERNATIONAL AMPHITHEATER TO THE ORIGINAL MCCORMICK PLACE AND THEN TO THE CURRENT MCCORMICK PLACE. TODAY, THE SHOW OCCUPIES TWO EXHIBITION HALLS WITH NEARLY 1.3 MILLION SQUARE FEET OF EXHIBITION SPACE. THE CHICAGO AUTO SHOW PROMOTES THE AUTO INDUSTRY AND THE CHICAGOLAND NEW CAR DEALERS.
