“The compensation of the top management official is paid by JourneyCare, Inc., a related organization. JourneyCare, Inc. has the following process to determine CEO & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR compensation: The Executive Committee of the board of directors is comprised of independent persons and is delegated the responsibility for reviewing and documenting the compensation of the organization's top management official (CEO). Human resources will provide necessary information including comparability data to be appropriately reviewed. This is done on an annual basis. The executive committee will engage an independent third-party consultant to assist with this process every few years as needed. BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION'S TOP MANAGEMENT OFFICIAL IS NOT PAID BY THE FILING ORGANIZATION, THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS REQUIRE THIS TO BE ANSWERED "NO".”

“The process used to determine the compensation of other officers is the same process used as the Part VI, Line 15a explanation; however, the CEO has final approval and authority. This process is done on an annual basis. BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION'S OTHER OFFICERS ARE NOT PAID BY THE FILING ORGANIZATION, THE FORM 990 INSTRUCTIONS REQUIRE THIS TO BE ANSWERED "NO".”

“The governing documents of journeycare foundation delegate broad authority to an executive committee. According to article vii, section 4 of the organization's by-laws, during periods between meetings of the board and when an action by the board is required that cannot wait until a meeting of the board, the executive committee shall be vested with, and may in its discretion exercise, the full powers, duties, responsibilities and authority of the board except where prohibited by law and subject to any limitations imposed by the board of directors or these bylaws. The executive committee also shall have express authority for approving compensation for executive management of the corporation, including the president. The executive committee shall consist of the officers of the corporation and other trustees as may be decided by the board and approved by the member; provided that a majority of the membership of the executive committee consists of officers. Other than the officers of the corporation, a member of the executive committee shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the board or until such member's successor is elected and takes office, or until such member's death, resignation or removal.”

Disclosure of a potential conflict will be reviewed by the compliance officer and the CEO, and the CEO's decision regarding the actions taken will be noted in a log maintained by the compliance officer.
