Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4

The organization, with approval of its membership, amended its articles of incorporation during 2017. The amendment changed the organization from a member run to a board run organization. The organization also adopted articles of membership exchange during 2017. Both the articles of amendment and the adoption of the articles of membership exchange were completed pursuant to a plan, approved by the organization's board of directors and the organization's members, to transfer the membership, assets, and activities to the massachusetts institute of technology (mit) on behalf of its joint project, the world wide web consortium (w3c). The organization's members, as part of the membership exchange, were given certain rights to participate in the w3c. The board of directors approved this plan after determining it to be the best course of action to ensure that the organization's members and the digital publishing industry have a continuing voice in the development of electronic books and digital publications. This plan was then overwhelmingly approved by a vote of the organization's members. The transfer of assets to mit/w3c, which primarily consist of intellectual property, was expected to be completed during 2017 but was delayed. The organization intends to dissolve following completion of the transfer. In the meantime, the organization has granted mit/w3c a license to continue work on its epub specifications.

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

The organization's independent accountant prepares the form 990 and provides a copy of the form to each board member who are given time to review, ask questions, and propose changes before the form is filed.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 18

The organization provides its form 1024 and form 990 to the public upon a written or in person request to the organization's office.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
