ExplanationThe reported expenditures are incurred by the RF as fiscal agent for the State University of New York (SUNY) System Administration and many of SUNY's 64 member institutions with regard to federal, state, and local legislation and direct funding support for various projects to be sponsored by or administered by numerous SUNY campuses. Appropriations requests seek to enhance the capabilities and infrastructure of SUNY and its member institutions.

The administrative support includes services such as hiring personnel necessary to conduct the research, purchasing equipment and supplies, prefunding expenses prior to sponsor reimbursement and providing financial reports to the sponsors. These research grants and awards encompass a wide range of disciplines including medical diagnostics, alternative energies, nanotechnologies and small scale packaging, and high-performance computing. The RF supported 4,948 research grants and awards that were conducted by 1,993 faculty members (principal investigators). This year, research at SUNY led to 63 patents, 38 licensing and option agreements, 286 invention disclosures, and 202 patent applications filed. Part III, Line 4b - Program Service Accomplishments Public Service - SUNY faculty and staff conduct various programs that benefit local communities and beyond such as providing workforce development services, educational and therapeutic services to children through early intervention programs and coordinating small business development center activities. Funding for these grants and programs is provided by sponsors to the RF on behalf of SUNY. The RF supports the faculty and staff by performing the following administrative tasks: hiring personnel the faculty need to help conduct the program, purchasing necessary equipment and supplies and reimbursing travel costs that are provided for by the grant, submitting financial reports required by the sponsors, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations and the sponsor's terms and conditions. The RF supported 362 SUNY faculty and staff by administering 1,197 grants and programs from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011. Part III, Line 4c - Program Service Accomplishments Training and education - SUNY faculty and staff are awarded grants and contracts for training and education programs that help build skills and disseminate SUNY expertise.

The RF provides administrative services that allow SUNY faculty and staff to focus on these programs. These administrative services include: hiring personnel to help conduct programs, purchasing necessary equipment and supplies and reimbursing travel costs that are provided for by grant, submitting financial reports required by the sponsor, and ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations and the sponsor's terms and conditions. During the 2010 tax year, the RF administered 722 grants and contracts for training and educational programs on behalf of 398 SUNY faculty and staff.

Examples of these include campus-related organizations, clinical practice plans at the SUNY medical institutions, and university-industry-government partnerships that foster collaboration and accelerate the growth of sponsored program and applied research opportunities at SUNY. The RF offers human resources/payroll and purchasing/payables administrative services to these organizations. Approximately 2,700 individuals were employed by the RF under these public/private partnerships.

The Foundation provides services to SUNY pursuant to a contractual arrangement between the two parties. Dr. Kaloyeros is the Chairman of the Board of Directors for Fuller Road Management Corporation. He additionally serves as Vice President and Special Advisor to the President, as well as Professor of Nanoscience for SUNY at the University at Albany campus, earning compensation paid directly by SUNY. In that SUNY role, Dr. Kaloyeros reported to Director Philip and ultimately to Chair Zimpher. The above circumstances are not reportable on Schedule L, Part IV. Mr. O'Connor was not paid by the RF for the services noted above, while amounts paid to Dr. Kaloyeros by the RF were reported on Part VII, Section A as compensation. The following Directors had business relationships through employment at SUNY: Chair Zimpher, Vice Chair Mitchell, Director Stefano, Director Cross, Director LaRosa, Director Philip, Director Sammakia, Director Scheinman, Director Simpson, and Director Stanley. None of these Directors received payments from the RF other than compensation reported on Part VII, Section A.
Delegation of Control during tax yearPart VI, line 3The RF delegated control over certain duties of the CFO other than those of the office of Treasurer, to an individual assigned under an agreement with an outside consulting firm, during the period of the fiscal year from July 1, 2010 until the individual was hired as an employee and appointed to the office of Chief Financial Officer on September 8, 2010.
Review of Form 990 by Governing BodyPart VI, line 11The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the Form 990 prior to submission according to the Audit Committee charter. All Board members receive a copy of the Form 990 prior to submission.
Conflict of Interest MonitoringPart VI, line 12cThe RF monitors conflicts of interest for directors, officers and key employees by doing an annual certification of business and family relationships. Any director with a relationship that may be perceived as constituting a conflict of interest will recuse him/herself from the vote on that issue.
Compensation of Officers and Key EmployeesPart VI, line 15The Executive Committee acts as the Compensation Committee for the RF according to the Executive Committee Charter. In this capacity, the Committee approved a salary plan for the officers. The former president of the RF, its top management official until his departure from the RF, served through June 15, 2011 in an unpaid capacity. The Committee retained a compensation consultant to gather comparable market data to create benchmarks for all officer positions, except for the former president's because it was an unpaid position.
Availability of Documents to PublicPart VI, line 19The Research Foundation Charter, the 1977 Agreement with the State University of New York, the conflict of interest policy and the financial statements are all available on the RF's public Web site at www.rfsuny.org

Such compensation is related to their role as principal investigator, research scientist, or campus administrator. The RF paid direct compensation to Dr. Myron Mitchell as a principal investigator, Dr. Baghat Sammakia as a research scientist, and Dr. Stephen Scheinman as a campus administrator. The RF paid the Stony Brook Foundation $115,000 in recognition and support of Dr. Samuel Stanley's ongoing research activities, in accordance with the May 2009 agreement reached between Dr. Stanley and the SUNY Board of Trustees.
