Part X, Line 2: In determining the recognition of uncertain tax positions, the Chamber applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and determines the measurement of uncertain tax positions considering the amounts and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2015, the Chamber has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Chamber is generally subject to potential examination by taxing jurisdictions for the prior three years. 0 March of Dimes Foundation 114 Turnpike Road Suite 202 Westborough MA 01581 131846366 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Black Ties for Babies Gala Operation ABLE 174 Portland St Boston MA 02114 042761871 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution Camp Harbor View Foundation 200 Clarendon St 60th Fl Boston MA 02116 753235491 501(c)(3) 15000 FMV Event Contribution Citi Performing Art Center 270 Tremont St Boston MA 02116 510197209 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Dues Boston Medical Center Gala One Boston Medical Center Place Boston MA 02118 043314093 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution Boston Business Journal 160 Federal St Boston MA 02110 042710233 6000 FMV Philanthropy Summit YWCA 140 Clarendon St Suite 403 Boston MA 02116 042103548 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution Big Sister Association of Greater Boston 20 Park Plaza Suite 1420 Boston MA 02116 042150651 501(c)(3) 10000 FMV Event Contribution The Children's Trust 55 Court St 4 Boston MA 02108 043123184 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution Mayor's Office of New Bostonians Boston City Hall Boston MA 02201 046001380 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV We Are Boston Anniversary Gala Initiative for a Competitive Inner City 56 Warren St 300 Roxbury MA 02119 133772904 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution The Partnership 155 Seaport Blvd 1500 Boston MA 02110 042879910 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Leadership Mass Fallen Heroes 100 Hallet St Boston MA 02124 273495087 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution International Women's Forum 2120 L St NW Suite 460 Washington DC 20037 840919612 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution X X X X X X 0 1 0 James E Rooney President & CEO 176297 0 0 0 7172 0 1000 0 761 0 185230 0 0 0 Peter Rockett VP Finance & Admin 95361 0 50000 0 6400 0 1000 0 23081 0 175842 0 0 0 Katy O'Neil Exec VP Programs & Leaders 95592 0 95000 0 18000 0 1000 0 23081 0 232673 0 0 0 James Klocke Executive Vice President 93593 0 160000 0 3028 0 1000 0 13877 0 271498 0 0 0 Karen O'Sullivan Vice President, Bus Develo 72989 0 65000 0 5815 0 1000 0 6862 0 151666 0 0 0 Charles Rudnick Vice President, Communicat 82019 0 50000 0 13586 0 1000 0 23081 0 169686 0 0 0 Paul H Guzzi Former President & CEO 241177 0 305000 0 24000 0 76000 0 0 0 646177 0 0 0 SCHEDULE J, PART II, LINE 1C In accordance with a deferred compensation agreement between the Chamber and its Former President, $75,000 was credited to a memorandum account, whose rights, title and interest are the property of the Chamber.
