Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A
“The organization has no voting members. However, the organization has two named designators each of whom has the right to elect one director to the board of directors.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B
“Form 990 is prepared by an outside tax professional. The form is then reviewed by the organization's management. After a full review, the final version of the tax return is provided to all members of the organization's voting body. A representative of management authorizes the final form 990 which is then e-filed with the internal revenue service.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C
“Members of the board of directors review all potential conflicts of interest periodically. Top management and all board members are required to disclose potential conflicts and any related party affiliations. The organization seeks full transparency on all relationships. Any potential conflicts (in fact or appearance) are discussed openly and resolved in accordance with the organization's policies and procedures.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
“It is the practice of topos institute that the board of directors (or a board committee) shall review any compensation packages (including all benefits) of the chief executive officer, regardless of job title, as well as any other positions that might be required by law, and shall approve such compensation only after determining that the compensation is just and reasonable. On a periodic basis, members of the board of directors review employees who are part of the top management group. Efforts are made to ensure compensation is commensurate with the duties and responsibilities of each individual and is consistent with compensation provided by other exempt organizations.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
“All of the organization's governing documents, financial statements, and other legal filings are maintained in a secure environment and held available for inspection by tax authorities and the general public. Tax returns and audited financial statements are posted annually to our website and are also available by request from the organization's office.”
