|---|---|
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 | FAMILY/BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS Members of the Board of Directors of Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City represent local companies where business relationships between such companies are the norm and exist in the normal course of business. There are no relationships between individual Board members or their companies that would require disclosure under a strict interpretation of the Internal Revenue Service's instructions. The relationships that are present are strictly a part of regular business transactions and would be offered to the general public. Given the nature of the business relationships and disclosures provided on a Conflict of Interest questionnaire submitted by each Board Member, Starlight believes the relationships that are present do not meet the disclosure requirements as stated in the instructions to Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Question 2 - Did any officer, director, trustee, or key employee have a family relationship or a business relationship with any other officer, director, trustee, or key employee. Accordingly, the question will be answered no to remain compliant with IRS reporting and disclosure requirements. Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City purchases services from companies affiliated with members of the Board of Directors. When applicable, services provided by related parties go through an appropriate competitive bid process. Services purchased from these affiliated companies during 2015 and 2014 amounted to approximately $639,714 AND $580,460, respectively, and related to utilities, insurance, construction, and architecture fees. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A AND 7B | GOVERNING BODY AND MANAGEMENT The Board of Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City puts together a nominating committee that identifies potential candidates. Once the potential candidates are identified, the committee presents the nominations at a board meeting. A full vote of the Board is required to approve a potential candidate as a new member of the Board. All decisions of the governing body are subject to approval; however, if a board member is identified as having a personal interest in the decision the board member will excuse themselves from the vote. |

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City strives, at all times, to conduct its relationships in transactions with individuals and other business concerns on a highly ethical basis.

Consequently, in all dealings with and on behalf of Starlight, these persons will be held to a strict rule of honest and fair dealing between themselves and Starlight. The purpose of this policy is to protect the interests of Starlight when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or any other arrangement that might benefit the private interest of a director, officer, committee member, or employee, or might result in a possible excess-benefit transaction to such person. This Policy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state and federal laws governing conflict of interests applicable to Starlight. Duty to Disclose: In connection with any actual or potential conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose promptly the existence of his/her financial interest and all material facts to the Board and members of the committee with Board-delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists: After disclosure of a financial interest and all material facts related thereto, and after any discussion with the interested person, the interested person shall leave the Board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted. THE FULL POLICY IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A AND 15B | COMPENSATION POLICY Starlight Theatre Association of Kansas City seeks to provide a reasonable and competitive executive total compensation opportunity consistent with market-based compensation practices for individuals possessing the experience and skills needed to improve the overall performance of Starlight and accomplish its exempt purpose and mission. The Board of Directors of Starlight has the authority to establish, review and approve compensation policies, programs and guidelines to ensure that they support Starlight's mission, attract and retain high-caliber executives, balance the need to be competitive with the limits of available financial resources, and comply with Starlight's tax-exempt status and applicable state and federal law.
