“Form 990, part vi, line 6 classes of members or stockholders the organization has five stockholders, all of whom are trustees.”

“There are five stockholders, each of whom has the right to cumulate his or her vote in the election of directors and pursuant to the provisions contained and process defined in mn statutes section 317a.215. However, the consistent approach over the past two decades has been to elect directors by unanimous consent of all the stockholders”

“No review was or will be conducted.”

“We employ the honor system where officers, directors, and trustees are required to disclose. However, given the size of the organization, it is unlikely that someone would have a conflict of interest that would not otherwise come to the attention of one of the other officers, directors, or trustees, or one of the staff.”

“The board of directors determines and approves compensation and benefits for the ceo and other officers of the organization. The board reviews the most recent edition of the minnesota council of nonprofits compensation survey, considers federal estimates of cost-of-living increases/decreases, and takes into account both corporate and individual performance. In past years this analysis has been done either by the full board or a board-appointed committee. This process occurs whenever any officer's compensation is modified or proposed to be modified. It is noted that officers who are also directors physically remove themselves from the board of directors meeting during the discussion and are not present during any vote relating to their compensation. It is also noted that other than health insurance, the last time the president's compensation was modified was in 2010. In 2021, global volunteers stopped paying all health insurance premiums for the president and vice president. In lieu thereof, the company increased the president's compensation by approximately the amount global volunteers contributed toward the officers' combined health insurance in 2020. This amount was reduced by the amount global volunteers was required to pay for fica on the additional salary. The board of directors resolution authorizing this change in compensation specifically stated, "this increase in burnham philbrook's salary shall not be considered or construed as a raise in total compensation, but rather a substitute payment of salary in place of health insurance." in fye23, the vice president's salary was increased by 10%, as was the compensation of most staff other than the president, to account for recent years' inflation”
