UPMC PINNACLE IS THE PARENT OF ORGANIZATIONS WHICH ARE RELATED BY BOTH A COMMON MANAGEMENT TEAM AND COMMON BOARD MEMBERS. HISTORICALLY AND OPERATIONALLY, THE FILING ORGANZATION SUPPORTS ITS SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTING SERVICES. UPMC PINNACLE FOUNDATION - THE GOVERNMING DOCUMENTS OF PINNACLE HEALTH FOUNDATION DO NOT SPECIFICALLY NAME THE ORGANIZATIONS TO WHICH SUPPORT IS PROVIDED; HOWEVER, THEY DO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 509(A)-4(D)(2)(I) BY DESINGATION ITS PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS TO BE ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION AFFILIATED WITH THE CORPORATION WHICH QUALIFIES AS AN EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTIONS 501(C)(3), 509(A)(1), OR 509(A)(2). UPMC PINNACLE, THE PARENT COMPANY FOR ALL LISTED SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS, IS MENTIONED NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE BY-LAWS AND REFLECTS THE INTER-CONNECTEDNESS OF THE FILING ORGANIZATION, ITS PARENT, AND SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS.

Remuneration is not taken into account for the purposes of the excise tax if no deduction for the remuneration is allowed by reason of section 162(m). Section 162(m)(6) imposes a compensation deduction limitation on controlled groups, such as the UPMC controlled group, that include one or more covered health insurance providers. UPMC PARENT BOARD. THE UPMC PARENT BOARD HAS A MAJORITY OF MEMBERS THAT ARE INDEPENDENT (75%). PLEASE SEE THE UPMC PARENT FORM 990 (EIN 25-1423657) FOR MORE INFORMATION. |
| Part VI Governance, Management, and Disclosure | Section A: Question 1a and 1b: The number reported on line 1a represents the number of individuals on the UPMC board of directors as of June 30, 2025 and therefore mirrors number reported on the UPMC Form 990 (EIN: 25-1423657). UPMC is central parent organization of the UPMC Group Ruling and is the sole member, whether directly or indirectly through other subsidiaries, of each of the 87 subordinate organizations included in the UPMG Group Form 990. Each of these 87 subordinate organizations have bylaws provisions that reserve all governance authority to UPMC. Therefore, for the purposes of Part VI, line 1a, the UPMC board of directors is the governing body of each of the 87 subordinate organizations included in the UPMC Group Form 990 and those that sit on such board of directors are the voting members of such governing body. As of June 30, 2025, 18, or 75%, of the 24 UPMC board members are considered independent as reflected on line 1b. Question 2: Multiple UPMC Officers, Directors, Trustees, and/or Key Employees have relationships by virtue of the fact that they are also Officers, Directors, Trustees, and/or Key Employees of UPMC subsidiaries and affiliates. These relationships are not separately disclosed below because they are not "business relationships" for the purposes of the Form 990. Question 6: UPMC GROUP ENTITIES HAVE AN ULTIMATE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER, UPMC (EIN: 25-1423657). PER THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES' BYLAW, ALL GOVERNANCE AUTHORITY IS RESERVED TO UPMC. THIS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, APPOINTING THE UPMC GROUP ENTITES' BOARDS OF DIRECTORS AND INITIATING, APPROVING OR OVERTURNING ALL CORPORATE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES. Question 7A and B: UPMC (EIN: 25-1423657), AS THE ULTIMATE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES, HAS RESERVED TO ITSELF ALL GOVERNANCE AUTHORITYRELATED TO THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES PER THE GROUP ENTITIES' BYLAWS AND IS THEREFORE CONSIDERED THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES' GOVERNING BODY. THIS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, APPOINTING THE UPMC GROUP ENTITES' BOARDS OF DIRECTORS AND INITIATING, APPROVING OR OVERTURNING ALL CORPORATE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE UPMC GROUP ENTITIES. SECTION B: POLICIES Question 11a & b: UPMC is the parent organization of the filing entity, group, and has, with respect to most entities in the group, the discretion and authority to initiate or veto actions taken by group member governing bodies. With respect to the remaining members, UPMC's authority is limited slightly but still significant, encompassing major matters including financial and tax matters. The completed group Form 990 was reviewed by the UPMC Chief Financial Officer, members of the Corporate Tax Department, members of the Corporate Legal Department, and other members of UPMC's management prior to its filing. Various sections of the 990 were also reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer of UPMC and committees of UPMC's Board of Directors, as applicable. For example, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board reviewed sections related to compensation and related party transactions. In addition, the Board of Directors established a 990 Subcommittee, comprised of the Chairs of the UPMC Board, Executive Compensation Committee, Audit and Compliance Committee, and Finance Committee, which reviewed the entire completed Form 990. Additionally the Form 990 is reviewed by an outside independent public accounting firm who as part of the process signs the return as Paid Preparer. After this review but prior to filing, the full UPMC Board of Directors was notified that the completed Form 990 was available for review on the Board's secure website. Also prior to filing, management provided the opportunity for all board members of the full UPMC Board to ask any questions or raise any comments on the full return they were provided. Question 12c: UPMC requires key employed and non-employed personnel to comply with its conflict of interest policies when they engage in UPMC- related business. Persons covered by the policies include: -UPMC board members, board committee members, corporate officers, and key employees -UPMC physicians and non-physician employees who hold a position of influence -Identified Non-employed members of the UPMC medical staff who hold a position of influence or trust-Individuals conducting clinical research at UPMC, whether or not they are employed by UPMC. These individuals are required to complete a questionnaire at least annually, which along with other data is used to identify possible individual and institutional conflicts of interest. If a potential conflict is identified regarding a specific UPMC activity, the corporate compliance department, with the assistance of the legal department, either develops a written plan designed to prevent the conflict from influencing decisions related to that activity, or requires that the conflicting relationship be divested, as appropriate. For employed personnel and non-Board member, non employed personnel, the conflict of interest identification and management process is ultimately overseen by an Ethics and Compliance committee of the UPMC board of directors on behalf of UPMC and all of its subsidiaries. Potential conflict of interest transactions involving UPMC Board members and entities with which they are affiliated are monitored and subject to pre approval by the Governance and Nominating Committee of the UPMC Board of Directors. In addition to the general corporate and Board policies described above, UPMC has also developed and implemented a separate tax questionnaire distributed to Officers, Directors, Trustees, and Key Employees annually that specifically addresses disclosure requirements of Form 990. |
| Part VI Governance, Management, and Disclosure | Question 15a and b: To support UPMC's mission and as set forth in the UPMC Bylaws, the Board of Directors has formed an Executive Compensation Committee ("Committee") and delegated to it the responsibility for establishment and implementation of officer and key employee total compensation programs. As part of this responsibility the Committee reports regularly to the Board of Directors. With Board of Directors approval, the Committee has adopted a formal Charter, which includes the establishment of a compensation philosophy and related policies with respect to the total compensation paid by UPMC to its officers and key employees. The UPMC total compensation program for officers and key employees is predicated upon an incentive compensation component. This component is based upon the accomplishment of predetermined performance goals and objectives which focus on the achievement of multiple annual and three year individual and group performance criteria in the context of appropriate risk taking. These criteria directly support UPMC's mission and include: patient quality and satisfaction, community benefits, operational and financial strength, leadership development, and strategic business initiatives among others. The total compensation program is integrated with and reinforces the UPMC business planning cycle as well as management development and succession planning processes. It is the Committee's judgment that the structure of the total compensation program is vital to, and strongly supportive of, the high level of ongoing success of UPMC and fosters the retention of critical officer and key employee talent. The total compensation determination process utilized by the Committee is intended to satisfy the "rebuttable presumption of reasonableness" as set forth in the regulations to Section 4958 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"). This means that compensation programs and levels are approved in advance by the Committee which is composed entirely of outside Directors who do not have a conflict of interest, as defined by the relevant regulations, with respect to the compensation program and levels. The Committee obtains and relies upon a broad range of appropriate data as to comparability prior to making its determinations. The Committee then contemporaneously documents, in formal meeting minutes, the basis and reasons for its determinations. The total compensation program is designed and administered in accordance with the UPMC Bylaws, sound business practices, the tenets of common law business judgment and fiduciary responsibility as well as adherence to all relevant federal, state and local laws. In addition to Code Section 4958, as set forth above, this includes but is not limited to Code Section 501(c)(3) and the applicable regulations thereunder as well as all laws and regulations prohibiting private inurement, private benefit transactions and discrimination. Further, the Committee has identified and adopted, as appropriately modified for UPMC, compensation program "best practices" from the business world (e.g. Sarbanes Oxley, SEC, etc.). The Committee believes that while these practices are not required in the tax exempt sector, they are in the best interests of the organization and further support UPMC's nonprofit mission. In accordance with the above, determination of total compensation for the CEO is made exclusively by the Committee. Determination of total compensation for other officers and key employees is recommended by the CEO and subject to review and approval by the Committee. The Committee, which meets at least four times a year, obtains professional advice from its own experts, including accountants, executive compensation consultants and legal counsel. Question 16A and B: UPMC has a formal written policy pertaining to joint ventures between UPMC Tax-Exempt entities and taxable entities. The policy employs an internal procedure for review of all transactions involving potential participation in joint ventures and similar arrangements to ensure that such entities operate in accordance with applicable IRS policies and within UPMC's charitable purposes. arrangements to ensure that such entities operate in accordance with applicable IRS policies and within UPMC's charitable purposes. |

THE COMPENSATION AMOUNTS LISTED REPRESENT THE FULL AND COMPLETE COMPENSATION PACKAGES PAID TO THE INDIVIDUALS FOR PERFORMING THEIR ASSIGNED DUTIES AT UPMC. A PORTION OF THE COMPENSATION DISCLOSED MAY RELATE TO EARNED AND PREVIOUSLY REPORTED DEFERRED COMPENSATION. A PORTION OF THE BENEFITS DISCLOSED MAY RELATE TO EARNED BUT UNPAID DEFERRED COMPENSATION. ALL SALARIES AND BENEFITS REPORTED ARE BASED ON INDIVIDUALS' OPERATIONAL POSITIONS AND ARE NOT FOR SERVICES PERFORMED AS DIRECTORS OR BOARD MEMBERS. BOARD POSITIONS ARE ALL VOLUNTEER AND UNPAID. PART VII OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, TRUSTEES AND KEY EMPLOYEES INDIVIDUALS THAT HOLD REPORTING POSITIONS WITH MORE THAN ONE ORGANIZATION ARE LISTED SEPARATELY IN PART VII WITH REGARD TO EACH ENTITY. INDIVIDUALS ARE COMPENSATED FOR OPERATIONAL ROLES ONLY, NOT FOR DUTIES PERFORMED AS DIRECTORS OR BOARD MEMBERS. COMPENSATION DISCLOSED FOR PERSONS WHOSE ROLE IS LISTED AS BOARD MEMBER IS COMPENSATION FROM THE SAME OR RELATED ORGANIZATION FOR AN OPERATIONAL ROLE AND NOT FOR THE DISCLOSED PERSON'S ROLE AS A BOARD MEMBER. ALL BOARD POSITIONS FOR ALL GROUP ENTITIES ARE VOLUNTARY AND UNPAID. The total hours disclosed in Part VII relates to the position for which the person is disclosed except in the case where the person is also employed by any UPMC Group Member entity. In such case, the hours reflect average hours spent in their operational role. For purposes of disclosure average hours per week for a full time person is listed as 40 hours, however, in almost all cases, this is a conservative estimate and most work hours in excess of 40 per week. For fiscal year 2025, it was determined that individuals that serve on the board of directors for each of the 87 organizations included in the UPMC Group Form 990 are not directors under the Form 990 definition due to the fact that these organizations' bylaws reserve all governance authority to UPMC (25-1423657), the ultimate parent of these organizations and the central parent organization of the UPMC Group Ruling. Although this applies to University of Pittsburgh Physicians ("UPP"), members of UPP's board of directors are reported as Directors for fiscal year 2025 (1) due to the fact UPP's bylaws reserve certain approval powers to a subset of the UPMC board of directors, thus putting UPP in a different class than the other 86 UPMC Group organizations, and (2) in the interest of continued transparency since UPP board of directors is comprised largely of physicians that are employed by UPP. Also, members of the boards of directors for the following organizations are being reported as directors for fiscal year 2025 because for part of fiscal year 2025, the boards of such entities held a greater degree of governance authority than they held at the end of fiscal year 2025, thus making such board members Directors per the Form 990 definition for a portion of fiscal year 2025: Hanover Healthcare Plus Pinnacle Health Medical Services Pinnacle Health Regional Physicians UPMC Carlisle UPMC Hanover UPMC Lititz UPMC Memorial UPMC Pinnacle UPMC Pinnacle Foundation UPMC Pinnacle Hospitals Beginning in fiscal year 2026, the first full year when the authority of the boards listed immediately above will be considered advisory, the members of these boards will no longer be reported as Directors. |
