A growing population that requires more food, water and energy is stressing the very land, rivers and oceans that sustain us. A shifting global economy is moving production to far flung corners of the world with unforeseen environmental impact. And a changing climate is threatening to undo much of the work The Nature Conservancy has accomplished over 65 years. But change is not a one way street. We can change the ways we grow our food to be more productive on less land. We can ensure water security by changing how water users invest in watershed conservation. We can tap new technologies to change how we manage our fisheries. And we can plant more trees to meet growing demand for timber while changing the trajectory of climate change. We can make these changes while still remaining true to our commitment to care for nature and biodiversity. TNC is an organization of pragmatic optimists. Where others see doom and gloom, we see opportunity for innovation and positive change. We are not naive. We know the challenges ahead are formidable. But we also believe that by galvanizing all sectors of society, engaging more partners and thinking bigger than we ever have, we can positively change the world so that people and nature can thrive together. Over the past year, We have seen the change we have nurtured at one place take hold and expand with a promise of global impact. Take the concept of water funds, where we were first inspired by the investment of New York City in the forests that produce and hold its drinking water. We created a system in which downstream water users pay to implement upstream conservation projects in order to improve water quality and quantity. The first successful test was in Quito, Ecuador, in 2000. Since then, we have created 24 water funds in nine countries, mostly in Latin America. Building on our success in Latin America, we now have scores of additional projects in operation or development on four continents. Four funds are now up and running in the United States and the first in Africa, serving 9 million people in Nairobi, Kenya. And guided by our China Urban Water Blueprint, our team is developing several water funds in China, including one near the metropolis of Hangzhou. This past year we launched another innovation with global promise in the Seychelles, a tropical nation of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean. Like many island nations, the Seychelles is grappling with sea level rise and heightened storms brought on by climate change. In response, the country is now investing a portion of its foreign debt into marine conservation and climate adaptation projects, such as reef and mangrove restoration. TNC used our science, legal and finance expertise to make this pioneering effort possible. NatureVest, our impact investing division, brought together loans and grants to augment the Seychelles debt restructuring. This model will now serve other island nations around the world, offering people both a resilient natural environment and an improved economic future. The past year also saw milestones in our efforts to promote change within the agricultural sector. From the American heartland to the Amazon basin, we are bringing together farmers, academics, governments and businesses in the agriculture and food industries. Together, we are promoting largescale, science based practices that safeguard our waters and lands while empowering growers to meet the rising demand for food, fuel and fiber. And there is another important benefit of this work, these practices, done right across a large area, can sequester a large amount of carbon. For example, TNC is lending its scientific and technical expertise to a farmer driven effort to change soil health practices in the American Midwest. We are working with a network of demonstration farms that can increase productivity and store more carbon and water in the soils while also reducing nutrient runoff into the Great Lakes and Mississippi River, and ultimately the Gulf of Mexico. And in Brazil, deforestation free beef has entered the marketplace after years of work with ranchers, retailers, government agencies and other partners to reduce the impact of farming and ranching on Amazon forests. This pilot effort in the Brazilian state of Para is a leading example of the kind of deforestation free supply chain that many consumer goods companies have committed to by 2020. Replicated at scale, this work has the potential to dramatically change the trajectory of deforestation and related carbon emissions across the Amazon basin. With decreased deforestation, the Amazon's wildlife and indigenous communities can prosper as well. We think these nature based solutions will play a pivotal role in meeting the climate challenge. At the same time, we also continue to push hard for policy change. In the U.S., each of our 50 state chapters has a clear strategy to build broad based support for climate action, including clean energy policy. In Florida, for example, we supported a bipartisan ballot measure to incentivize private solar installations. Voters passed the measure with overwhelming support. And in Ohio, we teamed up with the Environmental Defense Fund to make the economic case for increasing renewable energy. In a big win for clean energy jobs, Governor Kasich vetoed legislation that would have discouraged energy investments in the state. We have still got a long way to go, but we are proud of how we are drawing on one of our biggest strengths bringing diverse groups together, to find practical, common ground solutions to the climate challenge. And finally, this past year we also continued to apply our oldest strategy, land acquisition, to show that conservation and development can go hand in hand. Our purchase of Fortin Chacabuco in Argentina to use as a demonstration ranch will not only protect important habitat but also inform sustainable grazing management across the expansive grasslands of Patagonia. These and the other achievements that follow in this report are just a sampling of what TNC has done in the past year to demonstrate positive change in a world where change too often connotes decline and despair. The hopeful change our achievements inspire is a result of the collaboration of scientists, donors, volunteers and partners. We thank all of you sincerely. What we all have in common is a deep and shared sense of compassion. We care about other people far and near. We care about all of the species of the world. We care about future generations and the future of the earth. Together we can be the change we need to ensure a better world for all. 0 0 0 See Schedule O. 0 0 0 See Schedule O. 0 0 0 549683495 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1921 0 1 3875 1 1 1 1 AS BF BL BP CH CI CO CS DR EC GJ GM GT HK HO ID JM KE MG MX NU NZ PE PM PP PS TZ UK VE ZA 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 51 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 28 27 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AK AL AR AZ CA CO CT DC DE FL GA HI IA ID IL IN KS KY LA MA MD ME MI MN MO MS MT NC ND NE NH NJ NM NV NY OH OK OR PA RI SC SD TN TX UT VA VT WA WI WV WY X X X The Nature Conservancy 7038415300 4245 N Fairfax Drive Arlington VA 222031606 Steven A Denning Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Gretchen C Daily Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Teresa Beck Director (Part Year) 1 0 X 0 0 0 Thomas S Middleton Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Thomas J Tierney Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Frank E Loy Secretary (Part Year) 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Muneer A Satter Treasurer (Part Year) 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Stephen Polasky Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Mark R Tercek Director, President & CEO 35 0 X X 731827 0 32866 Jack Ma Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Thomas J Meredith Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Moses Tsang Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 David Blood Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Shona L Brown Secretary (Part Year) 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Craig O McCaw Chairman 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Margaret C Whitman Director (Leave of Absence) 0 0 X 0 0 0 Jeremy Grantham Director (Part Year) 1 0 X 0 0 0 James E Rogers Vice Chair 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Frances A Ulmer Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Joseph H Gleberman Treasurer (Part Year) 1 0 X X 0 0 0 P Roy Vagelos Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Ana M Parma Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Claudia Madrazo Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 William Frist Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Vincent Ryan Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Brenda Shapiro Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Jane Lubchenco Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Ying WU Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Stephen C Howell Chief Financial and Administrative Officer 35 0 X 382959 0 35948 Karen Berky Division Director 35 0 X 241307 0 18405 William Ginn EVP, Global Conservation Initiatives 35 0 X 382621 0 29789 Michael Sweeney State Director 35 0 X 285409 0 31230 Brian McPeek Chief Conservation Officer 35 0 X 550049 0 32748 Glenn Prickett Chief External Affairs Officer 35 0 X 336171 0 31236 Mark Burget Executive VP and Regional Director 35 0 X 443093 0 34849 Janine Wilkin Chief of Staff 35 0 X 248213 0 31220 Wisla Heneghan General Counsel 35 0 X 314776 0 28301 Joseph J Keenan Managing Director 35 0 X 405030 0 42999 Charles Bedford Regional Director 35 0 X 513859 0 42993 Peter Wheeler Vice President 35 0 X 360582 0 0 Lois Quam Chief Operating Officer 35 0 X 407056 0 13178 Justin Adams Global Managing Director, Lands 35 0 X 291735 0 0 Jim Asp Chief Development Officer 35 0 X 393655 0 191856 Mario D'Amico Chief Marketing Officer 35 0 X 304294 0 8973 Guilio Boccaletti Chief Stragety Officer & Global Managing Director, Water 35 0 X 258435 0 16874 Maria Damanaki Global Managing Director, Oceans 35 0 X 282643 0 0 Santiago Gowland Regional Director (Part Year) 35 0 X 262811 0 7637 Aurelio Ramos Regional Managing Director (Part Year) 35 0 X 253613 0 30558 Lynn Scarlett Managing Directr for Public Policy 35 0 X 267079 0 26203 JeanLouis B Ecochard Chief Information Officer 35 0 X 310743 0 0 Matthew Brown Deputy Regional Director 35 0 X 302367 0 30067 William Ulfelder New York Executive Director 35 0 X 313336 0 32748 Cynthia Smith Vice President Human Resources 35 0 X 303561 0 30868 Thomas Neises VP & Associate Chief Development Officer 35 0 X 282017 0 23781 Angela Sosdian Director Development & Gift Planning (Former) 35 0 X 289351 0 29784 Peter Kareiva Chief Scientist (Former) 35 0 X 245482 0 28641 R Geoffrey Rochester Director Marketing 35 0 X 291162 0 20333 Philip Tabas Special Counsel -

The Nature Conservancy devoted .53% of it exempt purpose expenditures to attempting to influence legislation in Fiscal Year 2016 (Tax year 2015). The Conservancy continued to advocate for strong policies and funding for critical natural habitat protection and restoration at the U.S. federal and state government level. Federal legislation that had significant conservation impacts and for which the Conservancy advocated included: the Land and Water Conservation Act, habitat conservation provisions in the Bipartisan Sportsmen's Act, funding for critical programs in the Interior, Environment and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, conservation buffer programs in the National Defense Authorization Act, Safe and Secure Drinking Water Act, Defending Our Great Lakes Act, Wildfire Disaster Funding Act, Conservation Easement Incentive Act, Grow America Act, Energy Policy Modernization Act, RESTORE Act, Coral Reef Conservation Act, and Tropical Forest Conservation Reauthorization Act. In addition, the Conservancy advocated to protect freshwater resources. Targets included New York sewage treatment approaches, Long Island's drinking water, Colorado's fish recovery program and a state water bank, Ohio's water trust, North Carolina's Clean Water Management Trust Fund, DC's stormwater retention credit trading program, and Connecticut's Clean Water Fund. Coastal and marine protection is a priority in places like Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, New York, Washington, Maryland and California. By example, Georgia passed legislation that contained key criteria to permit petroleum pipelines across five major coastal rivers and some of the most bio-diverse ecosystems. The Conservancy also advocated for Land and habitat conservation efforts at the state level including the pursuit of numerous on-the-ground solutions, such as funding for Minnesota's Critical Habitat Match Program and Maryland's land conservation funding for open space, Washington's Mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area, Missouri's agriculture and utility placement legislation that affects habitat, protecting conservation easement laws in Kansas and South Dakota, and Washington's fire management funding. Stable programs with sufficient long-term funding mechanisms for conservation are proven tools to advance conservation. Advocacy for these types of programs continued for the Iowa Natural Resources and Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund, Clean Ohio Fund, Delaware State Open Space and Farmland Preservation Programs, Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program, Minnesota's Outdoor Heritage Fund, North Carolina's Farmland Preservation Trust Fund, and South Carolina's Conservation Bank. The Conservancy also pursued placing questions on the ballots in various states to provide for long-term conservation protection in states like Rhode Island, Connecticut, Colorado, and Florida and local measures in New York, California, and Montana. In November 2015, ballot measures in Boise, Idaho and San Antonio, Texas passed that resulted in over $190,000,000 over the next 2-5 years to fund conservation initiatives in those locations. Internationally, the Conservancy's lobbying efforts are very limited. This year minor activities were conducted in a few places, including Canada, Argentina, and Micronesia. The Conservancy's lobbying efforts serve to protect valuable resources like: Georgia's Chattachoochee-Oconee National Forest, the Great Lakes, Minnesota's Northern Tallgrass Prairie National Wildlife Refuse, the Mississippi River, Washington's Yakima Basin and Puget Sound, Florida's Everglades, Kentucky's Green and Barren rivers, Montana's Crown of the Continent, Northern Prairie Grasslands, and the Yellowstone River, the Niobrara River in Nebraska, New York's Hudson River, and Plum Island, Tennessee's Soaking Creek, and the Gulf of Mexico.

During the tax year one easement was amended. The amended easement was: Haw Revocable Trust 1, 2 & 3 to release 2.96 acres of the conservation easement over Haw 2 tract in lieu of condemnation and subject to use, conservation limitations & restoration obligations, to the Kansas Turnpike Authority. Schedule D, Part II, Line 5 The Nature Conservancy's written policy regarding the periodic monitoring, inspection, violations, and enforcement of the conservation easements it holds is governed by our Standard Operating Procedure, Conservation Easements and Deed Restrictions. Excerpts from the procedure follow. Each Business Unit will be responsible for monitoring compliance with the terms of all Conservation Interests for which it must prepare or obtain a Baseline. For purposes of this Standard Operating Procedure, "Business Unit" means the Conservancy business unit in which the Conservation Interest is located or, if different, the Conservancy Business Unit responsible for monitoring and enforcement of the Conservation Interest. A. Monitoring Team. Each Business Unit will establish a Monitoring Team which will consist of at least one staff member and may include third party volunteers or contractors. All members of the Monitoring Team must be trained on Conservancy procedures and practices for monitoring Conservation Interests. The Monitoring Team will be responsible for ensuring that monitoring is completed and documented in accordance with this SOP. B. Monitoring Frequency. Conservation Interests will be monitored at least once each calendar year beginning with the calendar year after the Conservation Interest was accepted or acquired. The first monitoring will occur no more than 15 months after the date the Conservation Interest was accepted or acquired. C. Time and Expense Reporting. To comply with Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") requirements use Activity Code 10000 (called "Easement Monitoring") to report all expenses incurred in inspecting, monitoring and enforcing Conservation Easements. Business Units must follow the Finance Department's guidance for reporting: 1. Staff hours (to be reported in bi-weekly time reports), 2. Volunteer hours (to the extent required by Finance Department guidance), 3. Contractor fees (including outside counsel fees), and 4. Travel and other related expenses. D. Monitoring Reports. Monitoring results must be documented contemporaneously (within two months after monitoring occurs) in a report that describes the condition of the property and the protected conservation values as defined in the Conservation Interest. The monitoring report must include the information described in Checklist of Required Fields for Compliance Monitoring Template. Business Units may modify the templates or create their own monitoring report form provided that it contains the required content. Business Units: 1. are encouraged to use the same form consistently for all Conservation Interests that the BU monitors and in all cases, all required fields must be completed; 2. are encouraged to provide the landowner with a copy of the monitoring report and request that it be signed and, if feasible, notarized to indicate landowner's agreement with its contents; and 3. must maintain monitoring reports in accordance with the Conservancy's Records Retention Schedule. 3 E. Compliance Status. The Monitoring Team, with approval of the Business Unit director or the director's designee, shall determine the compliance status of the Conservation Interest as one of the following: 1. In compliance 2. In review 3. In violation. If voluntary resolution of a violation is not possible (e.g., because the time period to bring a judicial action will end under applicable statutes of limitation), the Business Unit will proceed with formal enforcement. Formal enforcement action shall be taken in accordance with an enforcement plan to be developed by the Business Unit and assigned attorney and approved by the Regional Director or in the U.S., by the Division Director. If the enforcement plan includes litigation, approval of the responsible Associate General Counsel and General Counsel shall be obtained prior to initiation of litigation. Schedule D, Part II, Line 9 The Conservancy records land and land interests at cost if purchased or at fair value at the date of acquisition, if all or part of the land was received as a donation. Fair value is generally determined by appraisal at the time of acquisition and is not subsequently adjusted. Upon sale or gift, the book value of the land or land interest is reported as a program expense and the related proceeds, if any, are reported as revenue in the consolidated statement of activities. Conservation land is real property with significant ecological value. These properties are either managed in an effort to protect the natural biological diversity of the property, or transferred to other organizations who will manage the lands in a similar fashion. Conservation easements are comprised of listed rights and/or restrictions over the owned property that are conveyed by a property owner to the Conservancy, almost always in perpetuity, in order to protect the owned property as a significant natural area, as defined in federal tax regulations. These intangible assets may be sold or transferred to others so long as the assignee agrees to carry out, in perpetuity, the conservation purposes intended by the original grantor. Conservation easements, by their very nature, do not generate material amounts of cash inflow annually. Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 The Endowment includes approximately 770 individual endowment funds. The Endowment provides stable financial support to a wide variety of programs and activities in perpetuity, playing a critical role in enabling the Conservancy to achieve its mission. Programs supported by the Endowment include restoring, monitoring, and managing natural areas owned by the Conservancy and others, as well as, many other activities and actions vital to the preservation of natural diversity. The Endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Directors (Board) to function as endowments. Net assets associated with endowment funds, including Board-designated endowment funds, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 The Conservancy has been granted an exemption from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Internal Revenue Service has classified The Conservancy as other than a private foundation. The Conservancy pays a nominal amount of tax relating to several unrelated business income activities, primarily rental income from debt-financed property. The Conservancy takes no tax positions that it considers to be uncertain.

The SOP is excerpted as follows: All staff responsible for government grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and other agreements will negotiate and administer such awards in an efficient and effective manner. The Conservancy has a Grants Service Network to ensure that this occurs, including assuring compliance with all applicable funder statutes and regulations. The attached table assigns performance responsibilities to the key positions involved in the negotiation and administration of the following types of agreements: 1. agreements to the Conservancy from United States federal, state and local government agencies, multilateral agencies, and other national and local governments; and 2. the Conservancy's grants of funds to other entities, including those funded by a government agency, multilateral organization, other non-profit organization, private foundation, or private donor. Conservancy grants to other entities are also subject to the "Grants by the Nature Conservancy to Grantees" Standard Operating Procedure. In order to effectively manage these agreements and to ensure accountability, the Conservancy employs a team approach during all stages of the process, from pre-proposal discussions with potential funding agencies through final closeout of specific agreements. Working as a team assures that the Conservancy successfully secures government funding for conservation projects and carries out these projects in compliance with both external and internal requirements, negotiating the best possible agreements and ensuring the projects are completed on time and within budget. Essential team members are a Project Manager, a Grants Specialist, and an Attorney. As appropriate, team members at any stage of the process should solicit input from staff in their respective Business Units, such as finance, philanthropy, external affairs or other conservation staff.

Conservation Activities 313 6 Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 The Nature Conservancy's procedure for monitoring grants within the United States is governed by the Government Grants, Cooperative Agreements, Contracts and Other Agreements Negotiation and Administration Standard Operating Procedure the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with government laws and regulations and to ensure the efficient and effective management of funds provided by U.S. federal, state and local governments, other national and local governments, and multilateral sources by the Conservancy, as well as Conservancy funds provided to other entities. The SOP is excerpted as follows: All staff responsible for government grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and other agreements will negotiate and administer such awards in an efficient and effective manner. The Conservancy has a Grants Service Network to ensure that this occurs, including assuring compliance with all applicable funder statutes and regulations. The attached table assigns performance responsibilities to the key positions involved in the negotiation and administration of the following types of agreements: 1. agreements to the Conservancy from United States federal, state and local government agencies, multilateral agencies, and other national and local governments; and 2. the Conservancy's grants of funds to other entities, including those funded by a government agency, multilateral organization, other non-profit organization, private foundation, or private donor. Conservancy grants to other entities are also subject to the "Grants by the Nature Conservancy to Grantees" Standard Operating Procedure. In order to effectively manage these agreements and to ensure accountability, the Conservancy employs a team approach during all stages of the process, from pre-proposal discussions with potential funding agencies through final closeout of specific agreements. Working as a team assures that the Conservancy successfully secures government funding for conservation projects and carries out these projects in compliance with both external and internal requirements, negotiating the best possible agreements and ensuring the projects are completed on time and within budget. Essential team members are a Project Manager, a Grants Specialist, and an Attorney. As appropriate, team members at any stage of the process should solicit input from staff in their respective Business Units, such as finance, philanthropy, external affairs or other conservation staff.

The lands and waters of North America do not just provide us with food, clothing and shelter, they also define us as a people. From the purple mountain majesties that inspired American patriotism to the crystal waters of the Caribbean that unite island nations to the coastal rainforests of Canada where people have lived for more than 10,000 years, the natural systems of North America have shaped cultures and built countries. But as our communities and economies grow, so does the pressure on these systems. The future of life depends on how we grow our food, develop our energy, use our water and build our cities. Science tells us that the only way to save nature is to also address the challenges facing people. The Nature Conservancy began in North America 65 years ago, and our long history with the people, businesses and governments across the region make us well suited to take on these challenges. As climate change increases the risk of floods and damaging storms, we are working with engineering firms and government agencies to use natural solutions, such as restoring tidal marshes and oyster reefs, to shield people and support wildlife. With energy development having the potential to impact 50 million acres across the United States, we are working with businesses to protect our most fragile and important natural areas while also supporting innovation to create affordable clean energy. As the demand for food increases, the Conservancy is partnering with farmers and agriculture businesses to improve practices that protect the fertile lands and waters of North America while feeding an ever growing population. And with more than 80 percent of Americans living in urban areas we are partnering with local communities to demonstrate how nature can help cities thrive and urban populations can play an essential role in sustaining the lands and waters on which all life depends. An Energized Future, United States. From prolonged droughts to flooded coastlines, no two U.S. states face exactly the same challenges from climate change. The Nature Conservancy's 50 state climate strategy targets these differences by helping each state take its best next step forward toward large scale, meaningful emissions reduction. The strategy found success this year in New Hampshire, where the Conservancy worked with the New Hampshire Sustainable Energy Association and partners to defeat a proposal that would have depleted the states Renewable Energy Fund. The effort restored tens of millions of dollars to clean energy investment. We also completed extensive public opinion research in many other states. The results were encouraging, including, New York displayed unprecedented support for increased renewable energy, West Virginia showed interest in reshaping its economy to include clean energy, Washington revealed a path to a statewide price on carbon. This valuable research will guide our climate policy in each state and help us reach key stakeholders. A Filter for River and Gulf, Atchafalaya River Basin. the Atchafalaya River Basin of Louisiana works like a set of kidneys for the Mississippi River, filtering millions of gallons of water from the Mississippi before reaching the Gulf of Mexico. The deep woods, fertile marshes and meandering waters of this million acre floodplain are home to more than 300 species of wildlife, including the Louisiana black bear, American alligator and more than 100 different aquatic species, as well as numerous native plants. The Nature Conservancy acquired 5,359 acres in this fertile basin, a hallmark first step of a long term initiative to conserve and restore Americas great swamp forest. In addition to its native plants and wildlife, the basin also is essential to local Cajun communities who still live off the land and whose cultural identity is firmly grounded in a sense of place. Winning In Overtime, United States. After months of uncertainty, the U.S. Congress handed nature a win in overtime by reauthorizing the Land and Water Conservation Fund. The program, which had been allowed to expire in October 2015 after 50 years of safeguarding lands and waters nationwide, was reauthorized in December for another three years. Additionally, Congress provided 450 million dollars in funding for the program for the coming year. LWCF, a program that allocates royalty revenues paid by energy companies for offshore oil and gas drilling, has benefited all 50 U.S. states and 98 percent of U.S. counties since its inception, supporting the protection of more than 5 million acres of lands and more than 29,000 recreation facilities. To support the reauthorization of LWCF, the Conservancy continued its decades long tradition of working closely with local, state and national partners and mobilizing supporters to appeal directly to members of Congress. LWCF was a focus during the Conservancys 2015 Advocacy Day, where trustees from around the country visited Capitol Hill to encourage support for this vital program that delivers important economic, recreational and natural resource benefits to the American people. Cultivating Caribbean Corals, Caribbean. The Conservancy and its partners built on previous success this year in growing and replanting corals throughout the Caribbean. We established new coral nurseries in the British Virgin Islands, Grenada and Cuba, then led local trainings on how to monitor and maintain these nurseries to produce healthy corals. Thousands of young corals already have been transplanted successfully onto nearby damaged reefs. Additionally, we are working to identify corals with stronger genetic resistance to warmer temperatures, acidification and pollution. Focusing restoration efforts on these species will give Caribbean reefs the best chance of adapting to current and future effects of climate change. Why do we need healthy coral reefs? Not only do these unique habitats protect island coastlines from climate change impacts, they also nurture young fish that will fill tomorrow's nets and support the livelihoods, from fishers to dive guides, of many people throughout the Caribbean. Securing an Indigenous Homeland, Northwest Territories, Canada. The people of Canadas Lutsel Ke Dene First Nations are tied to their remote forest and tundra homeland in a way few of us can imagine. They believe the Upper Thelon River is the place where God began, the very spot where their people were created. In recent decades, an avalanche of diamond mining claims and proposed new construction have threatened those lands. As the Lutsel Ke have engaged in a more than 40 year process to protect their home by designating it a national park, the Conservancy has supported those efforts by contributing state of the art mapping, conservation planning and funding for local programs. The 14,000 square kilometer Thaidene Nene national park reserve is expected to be formally announced in 2017 in celebration of Canadas 150th birthday. Planting Healthy Air, United States. From Seattle to Atlanta, American cities can improve their residents health by planting more street trees. New Conservancy science demonstrates the potential for urban trees to remove air pollution and reduce temperatures. The analysis, available online at nature.org, offers a deep dive into the potential for trees to save lives and improve human health in 245 cities globally, including 27 in the U.S. While New York, Philadelphia and Chicago show particularly high potential, the data indicates that every city has neighborhoods where trees are an efficient and cost effective solution. Trees can reduce fine particulate matter concentrations by a quarter and cool their immediate vicinity by as much as 4 degrees F. The study indicates that in major cities, a tree planting investment of just 4 dollars per resident could improve the health of tens of millions. Over the next year, the Healthy Trees, Healthy Cities program will use these findings to determine the best places to plant trees in several U.S. cities though a partnership with the Trust for Public Land. Form 990, Part III, Line 4b ASIA PACIFIC. With 60 percent of the worlds population and seven of the 10 largest cities, Asia Pacific is the fastest growing region in the world. Stretching from Mongolia to New Zealand, Myanmar to Micronesia, this geographically diverse region is home to a unique variety of cultures, traditions, natural systems and species. But Asia Pacific is at a crossroads, one that is emblematic of the challenges our world now faces as populations grow and become more urban. Increasing demands for food, water, housing and energy are placing enormous pressures on the region's many natural resources, including its tropical forests and fisheries, putting species, traditional communities and quality of life at risk. We feel these pressures more than any other region on the planet. The demand for timber, fish, and agricultural products, once coming primarily from the US and Europe, is now coming increasingly from the region itself as hundreds of millions of people move from poverty into the middle class. In many ways, as goes Asia Pacific, so goes the world. This combination of human development, economic growth and natural diversity is what makes the Asia Pacific a critical region for The Nature Conservancy. To address these challenges, we are working with communities, governments and industry across Mongolia, China, Indonesia, Australia, Myanmar and the Pacific Islands to build a more sustainable future for both nature and people. Living here and traveling in the region has been an eye opening experience. What I appreciate most about Asia Pacific are the voices from the field, Mongolian herders using the our maps to preserve traditional lands and livelihoods, Indonesian rangers who protect critical habitat for the last remaining wild orangutan populations in the world, fishers in Palau who are testing data capture techniques that could transform tuna fishing across the Pacific. Together, the Conservancy and our many partners are making a positive impact on the management of diverse natural systems and the resources they supply. For more than 25 years, the Conservancy has successfully worked with partners across the Asia Pacific to implement science based, innovative conservation solutions that address the conservation challenges we face. Success in the next 25 years will take the combined efforts of all of us to make this work possible. Balancing Water Use Down Under, Murray Darling Basin, Australia. The Murray Darling Basin is one of the worlds largest river basins, draining water from one seventh of Australias landmass into the Murray and Darling rivers. The basin grows a third of Australias food and creates habitat for more than 50 endangered species. It is also at risk of drying up. Decades of rerouting too much water to farms, combined with climate change fueled droughts, have significantly reduced the supply. The Nature Conservancy is helping lead the way to a new future for the basin with the creation of the Australian Balanced Water Fund. Balanced is the key. The fund aims to provide water security for farming families during droughts while renourishing critical wetlands during wetter periods. The Conservancy has used the fund to purchase 1,300 mega liters of water rights and recently watered its first wetland, a 177 acre test plot. Climate Proofing Sea Turtle Nests, Solomon Islands. Six out of seven sea turtle species live or nest in the Asia Pacific. Many will migrate thousands of miles in their lifetime, but they can not outswim sea level rise. The remote island beaches where turtles lay their eggs are at high risk of erosion. The Nature Conservancy is working to climate-proof critical nesting sites through a combination of new technology and old fashioned land protection. Conservancy scientists and community rangers in the Solomon Islands recently installed satellite trackers on 10 turtles backs using a gentle adhesive. Analysis of the turtles GPS coordinates will tell us where they are feeding and nesting. Conservancy staff then can focus on protecting climate resilient beaches nearby, where higher slopes and sand dunes can shelter turtle hatchlings for years to come. Planting to Capture Carbon, Inner Mongolia, China. Every year, howling winds pick up dry surface soil from Mongolias deserts and shower it on China, destroying farmland, threatening wildlife and making the air dangerous to breathe. The increasing severity of these storms is one symptom of drought, deforestation and destructive farming practices that have degraded Mongolias landscapes. A new carbon sink project created by The Nature Conservancy with support of Lao Niu Foundation and others will have a direct impact on these storms. The Horinger demonstration area will restore more than 2,500 hectares of forest, shrubby areas and grasslands in China's Inner Mongolia. The project is estimated to sequester 220,000 tons of carbon dioxide over the next 30 years. Great Apes And Greenhouse Gases, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The lush tropical rainforests of Indonesia are amongst the fastest being cut down in the world. Unsustainable timber harvesting and mining are not only threatening the orangutans that live in these trees, and that are listed as critically endangered, but also releasing tons of carbon dioxide into an already warming atmosphere. Now, The Nature Conservancy is charting a better course for this forest through the new, ambitious Green Growth Compact with the province of East Kalimantan on the island of Borneo. The compact includes 19 signatories from government agencies, companies, communities and other nonprofits. It aims to help the province reduce emissions by 1,000 tons of CO2 equivalent per one million USD Gross Domestic Product, while increasing economic growth by 8 percent by 2030. It's great news for local villagers, orangutans and especially our climate. Blueprint Benefits Herders, Snow Leopards, South Gobi Province, Mongolia. Mongolias grasslands are a softly rolling sea of green, brushed by cloud cast shadows and dotted with livestock. The countrys Parliament set of a goal of protecting 30 percent of Mongolias lands, roughly 116 million acres, by 2030. But where to start? The Nature Conservancy provided science-based recommendations for priority sites to the Mongolian Ministry of Environment, Green Development and Tourism. Those recommendations were combined with input from local governments, communities, scientists and non-governmental organizations, then adopted by the ministry this year in its draft National Master Plan for Protected Areas. The government also recently approved two new key conservation areas prioritized by the Conservancy, Twenty sites, spanning 20 million acres, were identified in South Gobi Province to offset one of the world's largest copper mines in the area; Nearly 2 million acres in the Tost Mountains were protected to safeguard habitat for endangered snow leopards. Real Science, Reel Results, Asia Pacific Fisheries. Scientists estimate that 90 percent of the worlds fisheries are overfished or fished at capacity, and Asia Pacifics are no exception. Fish species, such as tuna, are being heavily consumed but poorly monitored. The scarcity of data identifying which species are being caught and in what quantities has made sustainable fisheries management nearly impossible. The Nature Conservancy is filling those data gaps through innovative new technology. In Indonesia, the Conservancy is developing a groundbreaking image recognition application called FishFace. A winner of the 2016 Google Impact Challenge, Australia award, it allows fishermen to identify and track their catches using mobile technology, eliminating common misidentifications and the need for expensive equipment. In the Western and Central Pacific longline tuna fishery, the Conservancy is deploying electronic monitoring (EM) systems on boats across four countries and hosting a 150,000 dollar crowd sourced competition to develop a machine learning solution to automate EM data analysis, aiming to bring 100-percent accountability to the fishery while also facilitating true "bait to plate" traceability for consumers. Form 990, Part III, Line 4c AFRICA. Several years ago we began working to establish a new project for the Africa Region in western Tanzania. Known as Tuungane, Swahili for Let's Unite!, this project focuses on protecting the extraordinary resources of Lake Tanganyika, which holds 17 percent of the world's fresh water, as well as forest systems that support the most intact populations of eastern chimpanzees. This part of Tanzania is very remote and underserved. There are no roads, Internet, cell phone coverage, or basic human services. In the primary schools, there can be one teacher for as many as 200 students. While this area is high in biodiversity, the population is growing rapidly at almost 4.4 percent per year in survey project villages, and the medical system is inadequate to support this. People feel forgotten. A core tenet of our work here, as it is across Africa, is to spend time with the local communities socializing our approach and trying to better understand what their goals and dreams are for the places where they live. At one of our early community meetings, we started out talking about protecting forests for chimps and the freshwater systems for fish. A tired looking midwife then shared her stories of inadequate health facilities and supplies. Another young woman stood up and spoke of her sister, who had to take a 22 hour boat ride to the nearest hospital during a difficult childbirth. Both the mother and the child died along the way. After hearing of the suffering here, we quickly stopped talking about chimpanzees. What we learned from this community is that we needed to expand the way we think about conservation in Africa. We needed to be willing to address other community needs while still remaining focused on our mission. There, that meant bringing in Pathfinder International, an international health care partner that provides child and maternal health services, and that has already helped TNC provide more than 10,000 women with access to modern contraception. Meeting these needs allows us to intensify our work protecting important habitats for endemic fish and those chimpanzees. This kind of innovation is changing the way we work around the region. We are bringing the right people together, governments, NGOs, and communities, to address the complex and unique challenges facing the people and places of Africa. Instead of feeling forgotten, the women of Tuungane are now showing us the way. Small Islands, Big Conservation, Republic of Seychelles. In the closing days of the 2015 Paris climate change conference, a small island nation made a big announcement: The Republic of Seychelles in the Indian Ocean had agreed to the first ever debt for climate adaptation swap. Negotiated by The our impact investing unit, NatureVest, and the Africa Region in partnership with the Seychelles government and the Paris Club, an international debt relief group, the transaction converts a portion of the nations foreign debt into a 22 million dollar investment in expanded marine conservation that will help blunt the impacts of climate change. The Conservancy is also lending its scientific acumen to help create a marine spatial plan that identifies best locations for off limits fish replenishment areas, limited fishing, wind energy siting and habitat restoration to buffer storms and sea level rise. The full range of stakeholders, local communities, commercial fishers, tourism and energy industries, is being engaged in the process. For a nation economically dependent on healthy fisheries and tourism, protection of marine resources will expand from less than one percent to 30 percent. This pioneering effort is being seen as a potential model for other island nations around the world. Shocking"Discovery In Gabon, Gabon. When scientist John Sullivan dipped his net into Central Africas Ogooue River, he had no idea of the magnitude of what he was about to find. Sullivan, an expert on electric fish, was part of a team on a three week research expedition in Gabon, cosponsored by The Nature Conservancy and Gabon research agency CENAREST. His discovery, one new genus and two new species of weakly electric fish called mormyrids, was published in the scientific journal ZooKeys. Gabon remains one of Africas most unspoiled landscapes, and the Conservancy is working to keep it that way in the face of rapid growth. The Ogooue expedition was part of a larger Conservancy initiative to help Gabons leaders make science based choices about where and how to protect and sustainably use their rivers. An Africa Wide Survey of Elephants, Zambia. Hunted relentlessly by poachers, African elephant populations have declined a staggering 30 percent in the last seven years. The Nature Conservancy is partnering with organizations across Africa and China to protect elephants and crack down on illegal ivory sales. The Conservancy organized the Zambian effort to part of the Great Elephant Census, the first Africa wide survey of these mammals in more than 40 years. The results were striking. In unprotected areas, savanna elephant populations showed sharp declines or had vanished entirely. In areas supported by the Conservancy's partners in anti poaching initiatives, populations were stable or growing. Chinese digital media leader Tencent and the International Fund for Animal Welfare partnered with the Conservancy to launch an anti ivory campaign on WeChat, Chinas largest social media platform. The campaign featured a tip off function that lets users anonymously report ivory sales and sellers. During a 13 week monitoring period, more than 660 accounts were shut down and nearly 100,000 pieces of content involving wildlife trade, including ivory, was found and 58 cases were reported to relevant law enforcement for investigation. Legal Recognition for Communal Lands, Tanzania. Tanzanias seemingly endless savannas are growing crowded. Roaming pastoral groups clash with expanding agricultural tribes, while migrating wildlife find their time worn routes converted to fields and villages. All are threatened by encroaching development. Without formal ownership of these lands, the people who live here have little say in what happens to them. As a founding partner of the Northern Tanzania Rangelands Initiative, The Nature Conservancy is creating balance between people and nature by helping indigenous communities confront growing privatization within their communal lands and use them sustainably. Since 2011, NTRI partners have helped secure legal rights to more than 450,000 acres through CCROs, Certificates of Customary Right of Occupancy that grant land titles to communities instead of individuals. Edward Loure, leader of fellow NTRI organization Ujamaa Community Resource Team, was honored for this innovative and effective approach this year as one of six Goldman Environmental Prize winners. New Research To Save Giraffes, Kenya. Giraffes graceful arched necks and distinctive dappled patterns make them a must see on safari. Surprisingly, we know very little about these long legged giants. We do know they are in peril, reticulated giraffe populations have shrunk up to 80 percent in just a few decades and soon may be declared endangered. The Nature Conservancy is embarking on new research into this beloved animal. We recently announced an innovative partnership with Loisaba Conservancy and San Diego Zoo Global that will complete the first ever comprehensive survey of Kenyas Samburu herders about their interactions with giraffes, Track Samburu livestock using GPS collars to determine where grazing areas overlap with giraffe habitat Deploy 100 dual camera traps to identify individual giraffes and help us understand their movement; Collect tissue samples when available to identify giraffe subspecies and common skin diseases. Households Unite For Sustainability, Tanzania. The villages that dot the banks of Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania have grown exponentially in recent decades. Sediment from newly plowed farms increases algae growth, which reduces fish stocks along with overfishing. The Nature Conservancy is helping to meet those challenges through a joint program with Pathfinder International called Tuungane, Swahili for Let's Unite. Serving 24 villages, Tuungane recently introduced the model household program. Model households practice sustainable agriculture to reduce runoff, prioritize family planning so that women may time and space pregnancies for a healthy family, and invest in clean water for drinking, cooking and washing. Other program milestones include, More than 3,300 people have been trained on sustainable fishing practices and 13 Beach Management Units have been established, Nearly 230,000 acres of forest have been set aside as village forest reserves, 54 percent of local women of reproductive age now have access to modern contraception, More than 1,700 people have received microfinance loans to start small businesses such as soap making or beekeeping to reduce pressure on fishing revenue. Form 990, Part III, Line 4d EUROPE. Europe is central to sustainable development and climate policy, and is the largest contributor of climate finance to developing countries and the world's biggest aid donor. European businesses lead on progressive environmental issues. Europe is where some of our most transformational actions can take place. Since 2008 we have already raised 147 million dollars in European public funding for conservation, mostly from Germany and Norway. And in just a couple years we have raised 3 million dollars in private philanthropy. Now we are also beginning to do project work in Europe, but with a different business model. For example, the Balkans, home to much of Europes remaining wilderness and biodiversity, is a region targeted for a boom in hydropower development. We have an opportunity to engage with decision makers who will determine how and where future dams are built and to make an enormous positive impact on the health of rivers. Using science as a guide, joining forces with financial institutions and local NGOs, we can move the hydropower industry toward more sustainable dam planning, siting and design. The Balkans is a perfect demonstration site. We have also been asked by partners in Germany, the Netherlands and the U.K. to lend our 15 years of oyster reef restoration expertise. We think over the next five years we will see more such projects in Europe, always done with others and serving local and our global goals at the same time. Securing the Blue Heart of Europe, Western Balkan Region. Having emerged from decades of political oppression and strife, the Western Balkan region, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia, harbors some of the worlds most ecologically intact river systems. Known as the Blue Heart of Europe, the region is now experiencing a hydropower development boom of global proportions, with more than 2,000 projects already proposed or under construction. The regions future will depend on societies ability to reconcile its growing demand for renewable energy with conservation of its outstanding natural heritage. To meet these dual demands, The Nature Conservancy is working in collaboration with conservation and finance partners to develop science based solutions for integrating nature conservation upfront into renewable energy build out, including solar, wind, and hydropower. By helping build a brighter future for the Balkans, our goal is to establish a global model for how to repower a region in the smartest way possible for people and nature. Directing Aid to the Developing World, Norway and Germany. At The Nature Conservancy we know how dependent people are on healthy natural environments. We also recognize that it is often the worlds poorest who suffer the most when natural resources such as forests and coral reefs are damaged or lost. Many of the worlds governments also realize this. That is why over the last eight years we have been working with governments in Europe to achieve shared conservation goals around the world, including the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation and KfW, a German government owned development bank. Since 2008 European governments have generously contributed nearly 150 million dollars to help the Conservancy address some of the worlds most pressing conservation threats in places like the Caribbean, South America, Africa and Asia Pacific. For instance, in 2015, thanks to a grant from the government of Norway, the Conservancy and other partners contributed to reducing deforestation by 73 percent in the Sao Felix do Xingu municipality, in the Amazon basin of Brazil, compared to the average forest clearing of the ten years prior to the grant. Informing the Climate Agreement, Paris, France. For months, and years, leading up to the United Nations COP21 climate talks in Paris in December 2015, The Nature Conservancy played a key role in providing crucial support that resulted in a landmark agreement by 195 nations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit global temperature increase threshold to well below 2 degrees Celsius. The Paris Agreement demonstrated the our ability to leverage our leading science on coastal resilience and forest carbon, our world class projects on reducing tropical deforestation, our innovative finance skills, and our expertise in multilateral negotiations to ensure a truly global agreement and to maximize opportunities for natures contributions to mitigation and adaptation. Beyond the formal negotiations, we hosted workshops showcasing technical advances, published influential position papers, and coordinated with key stakeholders to both promote nature as a potent solution provider and shift the global narrative on climate to one of opportunity, prosperity and security. Since COP21, the Paris Agreement has reached the ratification threshold for entry into force in October 2016, and TNC programs around the world are working diligently to keep climate action moving forward. Introducing Water Sharing Investment, Stockholm, Sweden. For nearly half of the worlds population, water scarcity is a growing issue with devastating impacts on communities, economies and nature. In the past, countries have primarily turned to reservoirs and canals as solutions to increasing water demands. But water markets can be a powerful mechanism for alleviating water scarcity, restoring ecosystems and driving sustainable water management. Water markets are based upon water rights, which can be bought and sold, enabling water to be transferred from one user to another. A well managed water market provides economic flexibility, encourages water saving measures and brings a variety of stakeholders to the table to find balance between the water needs of people and nature. So was the concept introduced by The Nature Conservancy at the 2015 World Water Week in Stockholm, Sweden. This year at the Stockholm event, the Conservancy followed up with a report, Water Share. Using water markets and impact investment to drive sustainability. Our concept of Water Sharing Investment Partnerships can help provide a more water secure future for cities, agriculture, industries and nature. Form 990, Part III, Line 4e LATIN AMERICA. From the vast Amazon Basin to frozen glaciers high in the Andes, Latin America holds a third of the world's freshwater resources. While it is the largest net food exporting region in the world, most of its agricultural potential has not been tapped. But, the stakes are high. Latin Americas deforestation rate is already triple that of the rest of the world. Our purpose is clear. It is not only about protecting biodiversity and wild places, but just as much about safeguarding the future of humanity, our water, food security, economic and social stability, our own survival. Our work in Latin America spans across 16 countries from Mexicos Baja California to Patagonia. True to our legacy, we draw on a wide range of partnerships with governments, rural communities, indigenous leaders, businesses, research institutions and NGOs. Together, we are developing the tools and strategies the region needs to protect its spectacular natural heritage while providing the food, water and energy that people need to live and prosper. Over the past 40 years our work has evolved in tandem with the our institutional mission. The scale of our work has expanded from site based projects to a whole system approach that integrates protected areas, indigenous territories, productive lands, fresh water, oceans and infrastructure development. Our funding has transitioned from a high dependency on US based sources to a variety of funders, in region volunteer leaders, businesses, local government agencies, as well as bilateral and multilateral institutions. Cutting edge science and innovation guide everything we do, from helping decision makers find the least damaging ways to connect cities in the Amazon, to determining how nature can best help protect water sources for at risk cities. From Chilean and Peruvian fishing grounds, to Colombian and Mexican cattle ranches, Patagonian sheep ranches and Brazilian soy fields, we are working with individuals and industries to devise ways to boost production while increasing conservation. I am proud of our accomplishments and enthusiastic about the work ahead. We have a unique opportunity to contribute our scientific expertise, leverage our investments and galvanize our partnerships to transform Latin America into a global model of sustainable prosperity. Together we are creating a new conservation paradigm. Sustainable Amazon Beef Hits Stores, Brazil. Consumers got their first taste of deforestation free beef produced by our sustainable ranching initiative, Field to Table. A partnership between the Conservancy, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, Walmart and food processor and distributor Marfrig Global Foods brought the certified sustainable beef, sourced from a demonstration project in Sao Felix do Xingo, Brazil, to stores throughout Brazil. Farms and ranches in this region typically expand by clear cutting land. By contrast, the our project sites in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico are growing by restoring degraded lands and conserving ecologically sensitive lands while increasing productivity. Additionally, the Conservancy is working with large suppliers and industries to scale up sustainable food security efforts. Walmart has committed to monitor deforestation through its entire Brazilian supply chain by 2017, and, with strong backing from the Latin America Conservation Council, the Conservancy has begun to leverage corporate commitments via industry roundtables. We are a founding member of the Brazilian Roundtable on Sustainable Livestock and have helped launch similar organizations in Colombia and Mexico. Toward Achieving Continental Water Security, Colombia. More than 200 participants exchanged innovative ideas on water security at the third Biennial Water Funds meeting, hosted by the Latin American Water Funds Partnership in Bogota, Colombia. Water funds enable water users to invest in conservation of critical headwaters to protect water supplies downstream. During the event, Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos gave tangible, clear messages about the value of water to Colombias future. Water is like peace ... it belongs to everyone. The founding members of the partnership, including Mexican beverage company FEMSA, the Inter American Development Bank, the Global Environment Facility and the Conservancy, celebrated their five year achievements, launching 19 water funds, conserving 200K hectares, collaborating with 200 private and public partners, and leveraging 100M dollars for water security. The partnership also signed another five year agreement that will fuel the next phase of the water funds initiative in the region. Patagonias 1st Conservation Lab, Argentina. The Nature Conservancy acquired a more than 11,000 acre ranch, Fortin Chacabuco, an emblematic working ranch that is set to become Argentinas first demonstration site for sustainable grasslands in Patagonia. Located about 20 minutes from Bariloche, the acquisition permanently protects Fortin Chacabuco from development and its new living open lab status will help perpetuate the conservation of our beloved Patagonia and help embed conservation in Argentina. It will also show ranchers, government officials and the local community that nature and people can thrive together under science based conservation and collaboration agreements such as the sustainable grazing protocol that the Conservancy and partners are implementing in Patagonia. Tapping Science for Sustainable Hydropower, Mexico. The Nature Conservancy has piloted the concept of Hydropower by Design in Mexicos Coatzacoalcos River basin, noted both for its ecological and cultural riches and its future hydropower potential. We successfully completed an innovative, science based HbD tool that considers the full social and environmental risks of hydropower development basin wide. This tool maps out multiple development scenarios, as well as identifies options for minimizing negative social and environmental impacts, while meeting energy needs. In Coatzacoalcos, we found that the HbD approach could generate the desired hydroelectricity while decreasing future river fragmentation by 75 percent and displacement of local communities by 89 percent. We recently renewed an agreement with Mexicos state owned utility company, the Federal Electricity Commission, which will allow us to replicate this model in other river basins and mobilize funds for future planning. The Conservancy sponsored a technical exchange between Mexico and Peru, which led to a new collaboration to test this approach in the Peruvian Amazon. Measuring Fisheries Progress, Peru and Chile. Off the coasts of Peru and Chile, the cold waters of the Humboldt Current support one of the planets richest marine environments. The Nature Conservancy is working here with fishermen, industries and governments to support livelihoods while protecting critical species. In Chiles Los Rios region, we launched a training program that provides 50 families in small fishing communities with state-of-the-art technology to track catches and access markets. Similar efforts are underway at Ancon, Peru, where more than 60 fishermen have received on the job training in evaluating fish stocks and designing and implementing size limits and seasonal closures. These improvements have opened access to new markets that reward good fishing practices, such as high end Peruvian restaurants. Additionally, the Conservancy is collaborating with the Science for Nature and People Partnership and IMARPE, Perus marine institute, to improve stock assessments and make recommendations for key commercial species. Indigenous Partnerships to Safeguard Amazon, Peru and Ecuador. Across the Amazon, The Nature Conservancy works with indigenous peoples to help them achieve greater leadership over how their territories are managed, have a stronger voice in policy decisions and reach new markets for sustainable forest produce and fish. Led by the Conservancy, a consortium of 5 organizations in Ecuador and Peru completed the second phase of a 10 year partnership with the United States Agency for International Development to strengthen governance and promote sustainable livelihoods. In Ecuador, the consortium equipped and trained more than 60 community park rangers at six Cofan indigenous territories and helped 100 Cofan families implement sustainable production of organic cacao, coffee and fish. In Ucayali, Peru, three communal production committees were created, trained and have already commercialized 5.5 tons of farm raised paiche, a behemoth Peruvian fish. In San Martin, Peru, sustainable practices have helped quadrupled cacao production in the Alto Shamboyacu community while reducing deforestation and halting the expansion of the agricultural frontier. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Form 990 is prepared, based on financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers, and other internally generated information by the Conservancy's Director of Tax Services. The Form is further reviewed by the Conservancy's Internal Audit Department (which provides independent verification of certain information) and members of Senior Management. As outlined in its charter, the Audit Committee then reviews any significant issues or judgments relating to disclosures in the Conservancy's Form 990. Finally, copies are provided to the full Board of Directors for their comment prior to filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The Nature Conservancy's monitoring and enforcement of its conflicts policy is governed by its Conflict of Interest Standard Operating Procedure ("SOP") which is excerpted as follows: Before engaging in any activity on behalf of the Conservancy, staff must determine (a) whether the activity could give rise to a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest, and, if so, (b) whether the conflict can or should be avoided to protect the best interests of the Conservancy. If it is not reasonably possible to avoid a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest, or it is not in the Conservancy's best interest to do so, staff must determine appropriate strategies to mitigate and manage the potential adverse consequences of the conflict and obtain approval, as described below, prior to engaging in the activity. A conflict of interest exists when an individual who is responsible for acting in the best interests of the Conservancy has another interest or loyalty that could influence or impair, or may appear to influence or impair, the individual's ability to act in the best interests of the Conservancy. As used throughout the SOP, the terms "conflict" and "conflict of interest" include: 1. actual conflicts of interest; 2. potential conflicts of interest (situations that could become actual conflicts in the future based upon foreseeable events or the passage of time); and 3. perceived conflicts of interest (situations that others could reasonably perceive to be, or have the appearance of, a conflict of interest). Generally, conflicts can arise from relationships between the Conservancy and staff, Board members, trustees and advisors, and the families of all those groups. There are very specific rules regarding who is a "covered person" that are governed, in great part, by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service requirements for public charities. If a conflict of interest is identified which cannot reasonably be avoided or it is not in the best interest of the Conservancy to do so, before proceeding with the proposed activity, review and approval to proceed must be obtained as described in this section. While a request for approval of a proposed course of action is pending or being considered, the transaction or activity cannot proceed. A. Board and Key Employee certifications. All Conservancy Board members and key employees shall annually certify that they have read the Conflicts of Interest Policy and have disclosed all conflicts. B. Supervisor Approval Required. In the case of staff, prior to submission for review and approval to the Conflicts Committee the conflict of interest must be raised to the individual's supervisor and the supervisor must make the determination that he or she (a) wishes to pursue the proposed activity and (b) approves the recommended course of action and proposed mitigation as sufficient. Signature on the Approval form indicates this approval. Regional level approval also is required. C. Conflicts Committee Review Required. The Conflicts Committee reviews and makes determinations about conflicts of interest involving the Conservancy, unless excepted by this SOP. See Conflicts of Interest for the Conflicts Committee charter, meeting schedule and list of Committee members. Staff must submit a Request for Conflicts Committee Approval form to the Conflicts Committee when seeking review and approval. The form should explain why the conflict cannot or should not be avoided and recommend a course of action designed to minimize the conflict's potential adverse consequences. By submitting the form, both the person submitting the form and his/her supervisor (a) are responsible for ensuring that the form makes a thorough disclosure of the relevant information, and (b) are deemed to support and be responsible for the recommended course of action. The appropriate Conservancy attorney may be consulted to assist in analyzing the conflict. Board Members and Trustees should contact the Conservancy's Chief Compliance Officer to request a review by the Conflicts Committee. D. Review by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. All conflicts of interest involving a member of the Board of Directors, a Director's family members, a Director's Controlled Entities, or a Substantial Contributor shall be submitted to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors for review and disposition. Referral to the Audit Committee is made by the General Counsel or Chief Compliance Officer on behalf of the Conflicts Committee along with the recommendation for disposition made by the Conflicts Committee. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 Review Process for Officer and Key Employee Compensation: The President and Chief Executive Officer's, as well as, members of the Executive Team's performances and compensation are reviewed annually by the Board of Directors. The performance and compensation of all other Key Employees is reviewed annually by their direct supervisor. All compensation amounts are based on information provided by an independent compensation consultant who utilizes comparable data from Form 990's from other organizations and compensation survey's and studies to ensure reasonableness.
