Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

The accountants that prepare the form 990 (based on information provided by the organization) provide a copy of the return to be reviewed by management. Upon review, form 990 and related schedules are provided to all members of the board for review and feedback. Once the form 990 is reviewed by all board members and all officers of the organization, the final version is approved by a board resolution and filed with the irs.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

On an annual basis, all organizational board members and officers are required to complete a questionnaire prepared by the organization. The questionnaire is administered by the officers of the organization and copies are provided to the organizations attorney's for review and comment. The document requests that each individual disclose any personal, business or other affiliations and monetary amounts (if applicable) that they or their immediate family members have and within the past 12 months with the organization or any related entities. All responses are reviewed by the officers of the organization and provided to the attorneys for comment

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

The organization's formal process for determining total compensation for the ceo is intended to provide reasonable compensation for the organization's mission to achieve its strategic goals and to recognize performance in keeping with the organization's obligations as a charitable organization. The executive compensation committee will be made up of three (3) independent trustees. The committee may retain a qualified compensation consultant to conduct competitive market analysis of the market ranges of the base, incentive, and total cash compensation. The information the committee may consider can include, but is not limited to, the performance of an individual, the performance of the organization, the individual's length of service, his/her credentials and experience. The elements of total compensation and salary history, the organization's compensation targets, and the comparability data including but not limited to, the data prepared by the independent consultant and other professionals providing relevant data. The committee prepares every other year a formal appraisal of the ceo and other corporate officers' compensation. This includes a multi-perspective approach and performance measures which are linked to the organization's long-term strategic plan and achievement of annual goals. The ceo is not present when his compensation is discussed.
