Part XPart X : FIN48 FootnoteThe Conservatory recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. Tax positions for the open tax years as of June 30, 2012 were reviewed, and it was determined that no provision for uncertain tax positions was required as of June 30, 2013 or 2012. Management believes that the Conservatorys income tax returns for fiscal years ending June 30, 2009 and prior are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities.

ExplanationPart I, Line 2: The awarding of student financial aid grants under the U.S. Department of Education's Student Financial Assistance Program is monitored by NEC's Financial Aid Office, which ensures that NEC meets the compliance requirements of OMB Circular A-133. NEC's Financial Aid Office and Business Office are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal controls over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs.Only current NEC students in good standing are provided scholarship grants or other financial assistance. Grants and assistance to NEC College students are in the form of institutional scholarships. All College scholarships are administered through NEC's financial aid system. Institutional scholarships are credited to the student's internal tuition account and represent an offset to tuition and other fees assessed by NEC.Preparatory program, continuing education program and summer session scholarships are tracked separately and administered through NEC's student billing system. Preparatory program, continuing education program and summer session scholarships are credited to the student's internal tuition account and represent an offset to tuition and other fees assessed by NEC.Grants and assistance to NEC staff and their eligible spouses and dependents are in the form of staff tuition waivers, pursuant to a written benefits plan. Staff tuition waivers are administered through the Conservatory's benefits system and, like institutional scholarships for students, are credited to the individual's internal account to offset tuition changes.All students receiving scholarships and fellowships are judged worthy by the institution's assessment on the basis of academic achievement, financial need and other similar standards.Explanation

Sch J, Part III, Additional InformationPart III, Additional InformationThe following refers to Part I, Line 4b, Supplemental Nonqualified Retirement Plan. Anthony Woodcock $69,000, Donald Jones $28,500, and Edward Lesser $9,500, representing NEC's contributions to a 457(f) plan. The amounts for Anthony Woodcock and Donald Jones were paid in fiscal year 2013. Of the $69,000 for Anthony Woodcock, $34,500 was reported as deferred compensation in the prior year's Form 990. The $28,500 payout to Don Jones was both earned and paid out in fiscal 2013, and none of it was reported as deferred compensation in prior years. The $9,500 for Edward Lesser is reported in Column C this year as deferred compensation. Contributions vest at a future date and are therefore deferred for tax purposes. Vesting is contingent upon continued employment; termination would result in forfeiture of unvested 457(f) contributions.
Sch J, Part I, Line 1aPart I, Line 1a: Relevant information in regards to selections on 1a.A $25,000 annual housing allowance is provided to faculty member Donald Weilerstein and is included within W-2 base compensation in Part VII of the Core form and in Schedule J. The housing allowance was negotiated by the former NEC President and Provost as part of Mr. Weilerstein's compensation in his faculty contract when he moved from Cleveland, Ohio to Boston, given the higher cost of housing in the Boston area. NEC adopted a Faculty Housing Allowance policy in fiscal 2013.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key EmployeesThe following also refers to Part VI, Line 15a. Officer and key employee compensation is reviewed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees, which hires an independent compensation consultant periodically to compare officer and key employee compensation against industry data for similarly qualified people, in functionally comparable positions at similar organizations. Officers' and key employees' compensation packages are also approved by the Board of Trustees' Compensation Committee, which is comprised of individuals without any conflicts of interest with respect to the compensation, and the deliberations and decisions are documented contemporaneously as part of the committee's meetings. The process occurred in fiscal year 2012 for the NEC President, the Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations, the Vice President for Institutional Advancement, and the Dean of the College.Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsThe conflict of interest policy is distributed to officers, trustees and key employees annually. All of these individuals are required to complete the form for the past fiscal year and disclose any conflicts of interest within the form. The policy also indicates that officers, trustees and key employees are required to make conflict of interest disclosures at any time during the year that they become aware of a conflict of interest. These conflicts are reviewed by the Controller as well as the Audit Committee and disclosed within the annual financial report if material and on Form 990 if they meet the stated IRS thresholds. Individuals who have conflicts of interest or are otherwise not independent from NEC due to a business relationship or receiving compensation from NEC recuse themselves from Board of Trustees votes on matters having to do with their transactions or compensation.Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review ProcessIn March 2010, NEC's Board of Trustees voted to delegate review and approval of the Form 990 to the Finance Committee. The Finance Committee receives a copy of the draft Form 990 without Schedule B prior to the meeting at which they review the Form 990. At the meeting, members of the Finance Committee receive a presentation on the Form 990 from management and provide input on the Form 990. In addition, NEC has tax advisors from a national accounting firm review the Form 990. Lastly, a final copy of the Form 990 without Schedule B is provided to all Trustees prior to electronically filing the return.Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b
