Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A

“The cfo receives a copy of the form 990 from the preparer and conducts the first review of the form for accuracy. A copy of the draft 990 is then provided to the ceo and all board members for their review, edits, and comments. The cfo then incorporates any comments and edits received, if necessary. Any edits or changes are appropriately communicated to the preparer and once finalized, the final form 990 is signed off by the cfo.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Each key employee, officer, and director is expected to read and sign annually the company's conflict of interest policy and code of conduct policy which are then reviewed by the governance committee of the board and then filed with its minutes. If a conflict exists, the board or the appropriate committee shall follow the procedures set forth in the conflict of interest policy to appropriately protect benetech's interests.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“The governance committee of the board of directors annually reviews comparable compensation information, and compensation of the ceo and cfo, and recommends any changes for full board approval.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“An endowment fund of $350,000 was received in march 2014 to support its programs for a term of five years. In 2017, benetech received an additional endowment of $100,000 with the same term as the original endowment fund. Any income generated from the endowment fund will be used only for program expenses. The principal of the endowment fund shall never be used unless agreed upon in writing. The endowment fund was extended for five additional years to 2024.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“Based on an analysis prepared by the organization, it was determined that the tax positions taken or expected to be taken had no material effect on the recorded tax assets and liabilities of the organization. The organization's federal and state income tax returns for the years 2017 through 2020 are subject to examination by regulatory agencies, generally for three years and four years after they are filed for federal and state respectively.”
