Identifier Return Reference Explanation
SCHEDULE J, PART II:   THE CALENDAR YEAR 2010 TOTAL REMUNERATION INDICATED IN SCHEDULE J, PART II, COLUMN (E) ON PAGE 31 FOR MR. MURRAY INCLUDES THE ANNUAL BASE COMPENSATION, AND THE ONE-TIME VACATION PAYOUT, STANDARD HEALTHCARE AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS. IN FY 2010, CNA INITIATED AN ACTION TO REDUCE THE FINANCIAL LIABILITY OF THE ORGANIZATION BY LIMITING EMPLOYEES' ANNUAL LEAVE VACATION ACCRUAL TO 240 HOURS FOR EMPLOYEES WITH ZERO (0) TO THREE (3) YEARS OF SERVICE OR 320 HOURS FOR EMPLOYEES WITH MORE THAN THREE (3) YEARS OF SERVICE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ANNUAL LEAVE VACATION POLICY. THE PURPOSE OF EXECUTING THE POLICY IS TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF ANNUAL HOURS ANY ONE EMPLOYEE COULD ACCRUE IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL LIABILITY AND IMPROVE THE BALANCE SHEET AS WELL AS THE OVERALL FINANCIAL HEALTH OF THE ORGANIZATION. THE ANNUAL LEAVE VACATION POLICY REQUIRES ALL EMPLOYEES WITH A VACATION LEAVE BALANCE IN EXCESS OF 240 OR 320 HOURS, TO REDUCE THEIR VACATION BALANCE TO ALIGN WITH THE APPROVED ANNUAL LEAVE VACATION POLICY. THIS ALIGNMENT RESULTED IN A ONE-TIME CASH PAYOUT IN CALENDAR YEAR 2010 FOR ALL EMPLOYEES WITH AN ANNUAL LEAVE BALANCE THAT EXCEEDED THE REVISED ANNUAL LEAVE POLICY. THE ONE-TIME CASH EVENT HAD NO IMPACT ON THE INDIRECT COSTS OR INDIRECT RATES CHARGED THROUGH CNA CONTRACTS TO THE ORGANIZATION'S CLIENTS. MR. R. MURRAY WAS ONE OF THE MANY EMPLOYEES WHOSE ACCRUED VACATION BALANCE EXCEEDED THE NEW LEAVE POLICY - HIS LONG-TERM COMMITMENT TO CNA AND ITS MISSION RESULTED IN MR. MURRAY'S ONE-TIME CASH PAYOUT OF $447,895.72. MR. MURRAY'S 2009 AND 2010 CALENDAR YEAR BASE SALARY, AS INDICATED IN COLUMN B (I) WAS $371,173 AND $381,747 RESPECTIVELY.
SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 1:   TRAVEL FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES IS LIMITED TO ECONOMY CLASS FOR ALL MODES OF TRANSPORTATION. FIRST-CLASS TRAVEL MAY BE GRANTED TO ANY EMPLOYEE WHEN ECONOMY CLASS REQUIRES CIRCUITOUS ROUTING AND PROLONGED TRAVEL WOULD OFFSET TRANSPORTATION SAVINGS, OR IS NOT REASONABLY ADEQUATE FOR THE PHYSICAL OR MEDICAL NEEDS OF THE TRAVELER. FOR EMPLOYEES SENT OFF-SITE FOR FIELD ASSIGNMENTS, CNA OFFERS RELOCATION BENEFITS AS PART OF THE PACKAGE FOR RELOCATION. THESE INCLUDE TRAVEL COSTS FOR SPOUSE AND HOUSING ALLOWANCES DURING THEIR ASSIGNMENT. THESE BENEFITS ARE CORPORATE-WIDE POLICIES AND NOT OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY TO EXECUTIVES.
SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 7:   ALL BONUSES HAVE A WRITTEN JUSTIFICATION. BONUSES ARE APPROVED BY VICE PRESIDENTS FOR THEIR STAFFS AND APPROVED BY THE NEXT LEVEL EXECUTIVE (PRESIDENTS OR COO OR CFO) MAKING SURE THAT THE BONUSES ARE EQUITABLE AND REASONABLE AND WITHIN THE ALLOTTED POOL OF MONEY. EACH EXECUTIVE'S COMPLETE SET OF DATA IS THEN PRESENTED TO THE CEO FOR APPROVAL. THE CEO DESIGNATES BONUSES FOR VPS AND ABOVE. THE PEOPLE AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES REVIEWS THE CEO'S DIRECT REPORTS AND APPROVES THEM AS WELL AS DESIGNATING ANY BONUS FOR THE CEO. THE BONUS PAYMENTS WERE BASED ON: 1) SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE: IN RECOGNITION OF VARIOUS FORMS OF PERFORMANCE ABOVE AND BEYOND EXPECTATIONS. EXAMPLES OF SUCH ACTIONS ARE: PERFORMING WORK THAT HAS A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON A CLIENT'S DECISION OR GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCE; TURNING A BAD CLIENT RELATIONSHIP INTO A GOOD ONE THROUGH UNUSUAL EFFORTS; MAKING A SIGNIFICANT PERSONAL SACRIFICE TO SUPPORT CNA OBJECTIVES; MAKING CNA SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EFFICIENT THROUGH UNUSUALLY CREATIVE MANAGERIAL OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS; ACHIEVING ANALYTICAL EXCELLENCE OF AN OUT-OF-THE-ORDINARY MANNER. NORMALLY, SUSTAINED SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE IS NOT A CRITERION FOR THIS AWARD. 2) BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT: IN RECOGNITION OF UNCOMMON EFFORTS TO ATTRACT ABOVE-CEILING AND ABOVE-CORE BUSINESS. IN CERTAIN CASES, A PORTION OF A BONUS AWARD MAY BE EARNED EVEN IF THE EFFORT DOES NOT RESULT IN NEW BUSINESS. THE DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY INVOLVED IN PURSUING THE NEW BUSINESS AND THE DEGREE OF SUCCESS IN ACQUIRING NEW BUSINESS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' LIABILITY INSURANCE PREMIUMS HAVE BEEN PAID BY THE ORGANIZATION. BENEFIT IS BEING REPORTED IN TOTAL AND IS NOT SHOWN IN THE ALLOCATION OF PART VII/ SCHEDULE J. THE CURRENT YEAR PREMIUM IS $36,940.
