ExplanationThe Organization's president, which is its top management official, is not compensated directly by the Organization. The Organization's president is also the president of the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations ("NOLHGA"). The Organization has entered into an agreement with NOLHGA for various services to be provided to the Organization by NOLHGA (e.g., maintaining a computer server and website for the Organization and oversight and tracking of the Organization's administrative costs and expenses, etc.). The services provided to the Organzization under the agreement also include advice and leadership by NOLHGA's president, who also serves as president of the Organization. An appropriate portion of the time spent on the Organization's behalf by NOLHGA's president is charged to the Organization.
