AT THE NEXT BOARD MEETING (OR A SPECIALLY CALLED BOARD MEETING) AFTER THE FINANCE COMMITTEE HAS REVIEWED THE 990, THE FINANCE COMMITTEE WILL GIVE A REVIEW OF THE 990 SECTION BY SECTION, WILL ENTERTAIN QUESTIONS BY THE BOARD, AND WILL RECOMMEND TO THE BOARD WHETHER OR NOT THE 990 SHOULD BE FILED AS IS. AS PART OF THEIR PRESENTATION TO THE BOARD, THE FINANCE COMMITTEE WILL ALSO BASED ON THEIR REVIEW OF THE 990, MAKE NECESSARY RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD REGARDING GOVERNANCE, POLICIES, DISCLOSURES, ETC.

ALL BOARD MEMBERS ARE LISTED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEB SITE AND DOCUMENTS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST AT THE HEADQUARTERS. Pt VII, Col (E) IN THE PAST 25 YEARS, THE PRESIDENT AND CEO PERIODICALLY DECLINED COMPENSATION TO ENSURE THAT THE ORGANIZATION HAD SUFFICIENT OPERATING FUNDS TO FULFILL ITS PAYROLL OBLIGATIONS AND MAINTAIN ONGOING OPERATIONS.THE BOARD/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOGNIZES THAT THE ORGANIZATION RECEIVED THE SERVICES OF THE PRESIDENT AND CEO WITHOUT FULLY COMPENSATING FOR HIS SERVICES. IN ADDITION, THE BOARD RECOGNIZES THAT IT DID NOT OFFER ANY RETIREMENT OR BENEFIT PACKAGE TO THE PRESIDENT AND CEO IN CONTRAST TO MOST PEER ORGANIZATIONS THAT DO OFFER RETIREMENT OR BENEFIT PACKAGES. AS A RESULT, THE BOARD/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE HAS OFFERED ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION IN 2016 TO THE PRESIDENT AND CEO FOR COMPENSATION THAT WAS DECLINED OR NOT FULLY COMPENSATED. THE BOARD/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE APPROVED AND PAID ONE-TIME BONUS OF $437,555, WHICH WAS INCLUDED ON W-2 IN ADDITION TO HIS BASE SALARY OF $250,000. FROM 2007 THROUGH 2016, THE PRESIDENT AND CEO RECEIVED AVERAGE TOTAL REMUNERATION OF $287,543 PER ANNUM FOR SERVICES TO THE NATIONAL ACTION NETWORK. DURING THAT SAME PERIOD, PEER ORGANIZATIONS PAID COMPARABLE POSITIONS (PRESIDENT AND CEO) AN AVERAGE TOTAL REMUNERATION OF $283,074. THIS IS WITHIN THE COMPETITIVE RANGE OF + 10% OF COMPETITIVE MARKET PAY 287,543/283,074=1.02%). THE BOARD/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOGNIZES THAT DEVELOPING A FORMAL APPROACH TO COMPENSATING THE PRESIDENT AND CEO AND THE GENERAL COUNSEL WOULD BE AN APPROPRIATE ACTION TO TAKE AT THIS TIME. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS, THE BOARD/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE COMMISSIONED A COMPARABILITY STUDY, REVIEWED THIS STUDY, AND DOCUMENTED ITS DELIBERATIONS REGARDING THE TOTAL REMUNERATION OF THE PRESIDENT AND CEO AND THE GENERAL COUNSEL.
