In 2011, form 990, schedule A, Part II, section B, line 5 did not include the excess contributions by Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany, a 501(c)(4) organization. In 2012, the return reflects the inclusion of the excess contribution by such organization. The adjustment caused the public support percentage to decrease by approximately 17 percent.

Fin 48	Form 990, Schedule D, part X, line 2	The income taxes topic number 740, "Income Taxes" of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification") establishes criterion that an individual tax position has to meet for some or all the benefits of that position to be recognized in an entity's financial statements. On initial application, this criterion will be applied to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remains open. Only tax positions that meet the "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold at the adoption date will be recognized or continue to be recognized. This standard has had no material impact on JDC's consolidated financial statements. The tax years ended 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 are still open to audit. JDC has processes currently in place to ensure the maintenance of its tax-exempt status; to identify and report unrelated income; determine its filing and tax obligations in jurisdictions for which it has nexus; and to review other matters that may be considered tax positions. There were no uncertain tax positions for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In connection with certain funds received from the claims conference as well as governments and others participating in various NAZI persecuted and holocaust survivor-related programs, there are audits performed in the former soviet union regions, Baltics and central and eastern Europe by the claims conference itself, Ernst and young llp and other independent audit firms. Internal audit functions are also used to verify grant payments. JDC/FSU headquarters are located in Jerusalem, Israel. It has its own extensive network of internal auditors in the field headed by a chief internal auditor. In addition, Alkalay & Monarov conducts internal audits of JDC/Israel's programs. JDC headquarters in New York contracts with JH Cohn llp to conduct internal audits of JDC and its overseas offices.

The amounts are reported on schedule J, Part II, column B(III).
supplemental nonqualified retirement plan	form 990, schedule J, part I, Line 4b	benefit restoration plan The JDC personnel and management committee adopted a "benefit restoration plan" ("BRP") to restore certain pension benefits to specified executive managers whose benefits were reduced due to the limitation contained in the federal omnibus budget reconciliation act of 1993 ("OBRA 93"). The BRP attempts to equalize benefits to these managers as compared to all other JDC employees covered by the JDC employee retirement plan ("Retirement plan"). Under the BRP, the covered employees are entitled to receive a supplemental benefit, paid by JDC, consisting of the difference between the retirement benefit computed pursuant to the BRP and the statutory benefit computed pursuant to the retirement plan. The supplemental benefit is served by JDC in a separate restricted fund, on a current basis, in accordance with computations made by JDC's actuary. Currently, three active executive managers and one retired executive manager participate in the BRP.

ALL STATEMENTS ARE REVIEWED BY JDC MANAGEMENT AND ANY POTENTIAL CONFLICTS ARE REFERRED TO OUTSIDE LEGAL COUNSEL FOR OPINION.

Process for Determining Compensation Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 JDCs personnel and management committee meets annually each December to review and approve the salaries and benefits of each JDC employee. The personnel and management committee consists of nine board members including the chairperson, the president, and the treasurer as well as two other past JDC presidents and four other board members appointed by the president. All members of the committee are independent directors/trustees of JDC. The organization obtains comparability data for the CEOs salary and benefits. JDC hires an independent, outside firm to prepare a report to assist the committee with an independent analysis of market compensation practices for CEOs of other non-profit organizations. The analysis includes base salary, other compensation, and benefits. Information is also obtained from the most recent federal form 990 of these other organizations and shared with the committee. The committee also discusses and reviews the CEOs performance over the past year and considers this in its overall decision-making process. Minutes of the meeting are prepared disclosing persons attended, terms of the recommendations, and the comparability data obtained and relied upon by the committee. The minutes are shared with the committee within 60 days from the date of the meeting. This process was last conducted in 2012.
