OUR SIMPLE THEORY IS UNFORTUNATELY NOT THE REALITY IN TODAY'S CHEMICAL SAFETY REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT. OUR SCIENCE PROGRAM HAS TWO PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: FIRST, TO INFLUENCE CONSUMER BEHAVIOR BY DIRECTLY INFORMING AND MOTIVATING A LARGE AUDIENCE TO ADOPT HABITS OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH, USING ORIGINAL RESEARCH ABOUT CHEMICALS OF CONCERN FOUND IN EVERYDAY ENVIRONMENTS. SECOND, TO INFLUENCE MASS MARKET CHANGE BY DISRUPTING THE FOOD, HOUSEHOLD CLEANER, AND PERSONAL CARE PRODUCT MARKETS THROUGH EVIDENCE-BASED RESEARCH ON TOXIC INGREDIENTS AND CONSUMER PRESSURE FOR SAFER ALTERNATIVES.OUR SCIENCE PROGRAM IS WORKING TO PRODUCE CUTTING-EDGE, NEWSWORTHY RESEARCH AND CONSUMER EDUCATION PROJECTS ON ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH TO EDUCATE CITIZEN ACTIVISTS, MOVE MARKETS AND GENERATE DEBATE ON CHEMICAL POLICY REFORM. EWG HAS A DEDICATED TEAM OF SCIENTISTS WITH EXPERTISE IN TOXICOLOGY, CHEMISTRY, PUBLIC HEALTH AND NUTRITION. OUR TEAM OF A DOZEN EXPERTS IS ONE OF THE LARGEST AND MOST RECOGNIZED IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL FIELD.FROM THE TOP RESEARCHERS ON ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, TO AN AWARD WINNING GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS SHOP, TO COPYWRITERS TO HELP US TELL OUR ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH STORIES TO A ROBUST ONLINE COMMUNITY OF MILLIONS OF CONSUMERS - EWG IS INSPIRING CHANGE, BOTH BIG AND SMALL. THROUGH OUR HABIT CHANGING GUIDANCE, TO OUR MARKET AND POLICY MOVING SCIENCE WE ARE TRANSFORMING THE PERCEPTION THAT HEALTH AND WELLNESS IS A LUXURY AND REDEFINING IT AS A NECESSITY.BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE A RIGHT TO LIVE IN AN "ENVIRONMENT" WE CAN TRUST. 2769807 77565 126422 FOOD AND AGRICULTURE - OUR CONSERVATION PROGRAM WORKS TO PROTECT THE SOURCE OF OUR FOOD: OUR SOIL AND WATER. THIS INCLUDES ONGOING PROJECTS TO PROTECT DRINKING WATER FROM AGRICULTURAL POLLUTION, AND TO PROTECT SOIL FROM PESTICIDES, EROSION AND CONTAMINATION FROM THESE SAME INDUSTRIES. WE DO THIS WORK TO PROTECT OUR NATURAL RESOURCES BECAUSE THEY ARE VITAL AND IRREPLACEABLE, BUT ALSO BECAUSE POLLUTION IN OUR ENVIRONMENT INEVITABLY BECOMES POLLUTION IN OUR BODIES. OUR GOAL IS TO ILLUSTRATE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE BROKEN U.S. AGRICULTURAL SYSTEM, FARM SUBSIDIES, THE DAMAGE BEING DONE TO OUR LAND AND HEALTH, AND THE INCREASING LACK OF ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD AND FRESH PRODUCE FOR TODAY'S FAMILIES. OUR STRATEGY IS DESIGNED TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES AND PUSH U.S. AGRICULTURE IN A MORE SUSTAINABLE DIRECTION THAT STANDS UP FOR BOTH THE HEALTH OF OUR LAND AND OUR FOOD. 1948442 1960430 LICENSING - "EWG VERIFIED" IS EWG'S VERIFICATION AND LICENSING PROGRAM THAT HELPS CONSUMERS IDENTIFY SAFER PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS WITHOUT HAVING TO DO RESEARCH. IT IS RAPIDLY PUSHING THE MARKET TOWARD THE STRICT INGREDIENT AND TRANSPARENCY CRITERIA DEFINED BY OUR TEAM OF RESEARCH SCIENTISTS. EWG ESTABLISHED STANDARDS IN THE INTEREST OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND CREATED AN EWG VERIFIED SEAL THAT MEANS A PRODUCT IS FREE FROM DANGEROUS CHEMICALS WITH KNOWN NEGATIVE HEALTH IMPACTS, AND THAT PRODUCT HAS MET EWG'S STRICT, PROTECTIVE STANDARDS FOR THESE CHEMICALS.AN EWG MARK FOR SAFETY AND HEALTH AT POINT OF SALE INSPIRES CONSUMERS TO SHOP WITH OUR STANDARDS IN MIND, AND ULTIMATELY, SHAPING CONSUMER HABITS WILL DRIVE MARKET CHANGE. OUR GOAL IS TO HAVE MARQUEE BRANDS FORMULATE TOWARD OUR STANDARDS, MAKING IT THAT MUCH EASIER FOR CONSUMERS TO FIND BETTER ALTERNATIVES. 482268 ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES 482268 9970979 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 24 0 1 77 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 25 24 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AL AK AZ AR CA CO CT FL GA HI IL KS KY MD ME MA MI MN MS NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WA WV WI X SCOTT MALLAN 2026676982 1436 U STREET NW SUITE 100 WASHINGTON DC 200093987 KEN COOK PRESIDENT 40.00 1.00 X X 295000 150 20122 SCOTT FABER SENIOR VP GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS 40.00 1.00 X 250000 180 16728 JOCELYN LYLE VP DEVELOPMENT & PARTNERSHIPS 40.00 X 232000 0 14368 CRAIG COX SENIOR VP OF AGRICULTURE 40.00 X 217000 0 9844 CHRIS CAMPBELL VP INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 40.00 X 205000 0 19750 WILLIAM WALKER VP AND MANAGING EDITOR 40.00 X 200516 0 20636 ALEX FORMUZIS VP COMMUNICATIONS 40.00 X 200000 0 17878 MAURA WALSH VP DIGITAL STRATEGIES 40.00 X 205000 0 9799 SCOTT MALLAN VP FINANCE & COO 40.00 1.00 X 200000 100 9617 BILL ALLAYAUD DIRECTOR OF GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS 40.00 X 170000 0 1725 NNEKA LEIBA VP HEALTHY LIVING 40.00 X 160000 0 9617 WILLIAM G ROSS JR VICE-CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 DRUMMOND PIKE TREASURER 2.00 X X 0 0 0 DAVID BAKER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 BRANDON BECK MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 NATASHA BECK MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN BYMEL MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ARIANNE CALLENDER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ROB FETHERSTONHAUGH MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTINE GARDNER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 MEG HIRSHBERG MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR MARK HYMAN MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR BOJANA JANKOVIC WEATHERLY MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR HARVEY KARP MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 NINA MONTEE KARP MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CJ KETTLER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 KAREN MALKIN MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ELISE MUSELES MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR BARBARA PALDUS MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 RANDY PAYNTER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELLE PFEIFER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ERICA REID MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 SERENA TORREY ROOSEVELT MEMBER - UNTIL 09/2020 2.00 X 0 0 0 KIM ROZENFELD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 LAURA TURNER SEYDEL MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 SHAZI VISRAM MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 2334516 430 150084 35 0 1 0 HEALTHY LIFESTYLE BRANDS 505 MADISON DRIVE TEMPE AZ 85281 EWG VERIFIED SERVICES 356194 INTERNATIONAL FULFILLMENT CORPORATION 3570 BLADENSBURG ROAD BRENTWOOD MD 20722 WAREHOUSING AND FULFILLMENT SERVICES 212223 CHIEF CO ROCK CREEK PUBLISHING GROUP 1800 MASSACHUSETTS AVE WASHINGTON DC 20036 WEBSITE SERVICES 203347 EXYGY INC PO BOX 7775 SAN FRANCISCO CA 94120 HEALTHY LIVING APP SUPPORT 155398 EVERYACTION INC PO BOX 392264 PITTSBURGH PA 15251 DONOR MANAGEMENT SERVICES 118421 5 10186247 207351 10186247 ADMIN/CONSULTING FEES 900099 2119823 2119823 2119823 60036 60036 11781719 11777817 3902 3902 3902 45000 74487 -29487 -29487 12340521 2119823 0 34451 80065 80065 1489429 1322824 58238 108367 5115669 4493881 304667 317121 570229 500223 33610 36396 475954 419598 26205 30151 213146 202700 9728 718 47330 47330 345887 345887 126710 7781 12058 106871 630172 594273 18135 17764 226140 84505 79 141556 43456 17372 19546 6538 132554 117388 7003 8163 821663 625771 155107 40785 64626 59385 2872 2369 192872 170538 1269 21065 60995 60995 70055 61797 3792 4466 RESEARCH, DATA, SUBSCR. 381102 363170 8770 9162 PROGRAMMING & WEBSITE 228624 217831 6695 4098 DONOR FULFILLMENT 225994 27752 637 197605 ONLINE ENGAGEMENT 209607 148528 7278 53801 110291 109710 572 9 11862570 9970979 784586 1107005 236924 1076811 3869420 4138773 1529445 1626375 1446926 885839 294962 283864 1851264 1522438 131054 328826 3361216 3957881 168422 78516 11038369 12376885 892824 625686 20000 54000 0 1156800 122025 72982 1034849 1909468 X 6120490 7752614 3883030 2714803 10003520 10467417 11038369 12376885 477951 -14054 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 10261640 9910266 13904369 10045305 10186247 54307827 10261640 9910266 13904369 10045305 10186247 54307827 8274808 46033019 16897 88773 121323 94784 60036 381813 284 284 54689924 5642588 0.84170 0.79680 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: MISCELLANEOUS - 2016 AMOUNT: $ 284. 2017 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2018 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2019 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2020 AMOUNT: $ 0.
