Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7a
The Organization's members have the right to elect the members of the Board of Trustees (other than statutory ex-officio Trustees). Elections are conducted at an annual membership meeting, held in conjunction with an annual conference in the Fall.
F990_P06_S0B_L11a
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11a
A copy of the Organization's 990 was provided to all members of the Organization's Board of Trustees before it was filed. The process for review was as follows: After preparation of the form by staff and reviewed by management, the draft 990 was reviewed at a special telephonic meeting of the Board's Audit Committee. The draft 990 was then made available to all board members (either digitally or in hard copy, depending on their preference). Two review sessions led by staff were held for Trustees on different dates, and all Trustees were encouraged to participate. Any changes following these reviews were again reviewed by the Audit Committee before the final 990 was filed. The draft 990 was also reviewed by the independent accounting firm of KPMG.
F990_P06_S0B_L12c
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c
The Organization's conflict of interest policy is sent out to board members once a year, with a disclosure form that asks Trustees to describe interest in or relationships with both for-profit and non-profit entities, and to describe any transactions (direct or indirect) with the Organization. Trustees are also required to disclose annually any business or family relationships with other Trustees and with Officers and Key Employees of the Organization (identified by name), consistent with the disclosure obligaion of Part VI, Line 2. Trustees are regularly reminded of their obligation under the policy to ensure that transactions (direct or indirect) are consistent with the policy, including the review process stated in the policy for potential transactions. The policy also provides a process for review of potential conflicts.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
The Organization's Compensation Subcommittee of the Executive Committee reviews compensation of the President and top management staff (including Officers and Key Employees). All members of the Compensation Subcommittee are independent members of the Board of Trustees. The organization regularly engages an independent consultant to prepare a compensation study and comparability analysis, and such information for the Officers and Key Employees is made available to the Compensation Subcommittee. The Compensation Subcommittee approves compensation of the President in advance and in writing. Compensation of other Officers and Key Employees is reviewed by the Compensation Subcommittee, but is set by the President.
