      <Description>Capital:The Foundation raises money to support Gillette in providing specialty health care for people who have disabilities. In 2010, the largest capital fundraising expenditures involved renovating and expanding Gillette's hospital facilities in St. Paul. To accomodate significant growth, Gillette embarked on a major expansion in 2010 - including a 10-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and a 52,000-square-foot patient care building. Gillette's new and larger PICU serves a growing surgical practice and Regions Hospital's Level I Pediatric Trauma Center, which Gillette supports.See Schedule OThe unit's technology and design enhance patient safety and privacy. The 10 private rooms each have their own nursing stations and space for a parent or caregiver to stay overnight.Gillette's new patient care building houses Rehabilitation Therapies and the James R. Gage Center for Gait and Motion Analysis. Connected to the main hospital by skyway, the new building provides more space for motion analysis research and enhances the rehabilitation experience of patients.</Description>

        <ReturnReference>Part I, Line 2:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Schedule I, Part I, Line 2: In 2010, Gillette revised its governance structure to one in which the members of the hospital board are also members of the Foundation board, resulting in common control of both entities. Thus the Foundation has changed classification from a Type I to a Type II support organization. The goal of this redefinition is for the single board to share community oversight, strategic planning, financial oversight, and fundraising responsibilities equally among all board members. As a type II supporting organization pursuant to IRC section 509(a)(3), Reg. 1.509(a)-4(f)(2)(ii), the Foundation grants monies to Gillette and maintains endowment funds, restricted and unrestricted assets, and contributions received to benefit Gillette. These funds held by the Foundation are granted to Gillette pursuant to the restrictions of the particular fund. Periodically, the Foundation receives financial reports from Gillette documenting the use of monies, including endowment funds, restricted funds, and unrestricted funds, received by Gillette.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Certain employees of Gillette are provided the opportunity to participate in the pension restoration plan (The Plan). The Plan requires that the employee be an executive of Gillette in order to be eligible to participate in The Plan. Payments from The Plan occur annually by July 1 of the year following the end of The Plan year. This Plan is a "gap" plan which provides participants with a deposit that closes the gap between the limits of IRC 403(b) and the actual cash compensation of the participant.

        <Explanation>In 2010, Gillette revised its governance structure to one in which the members of the hospital board are also members of the Foundation board, resulting in common control of both entities. Thus the Foundation has changed classification from a Type I to a Type II support organization. The goal of this redefinition is for the single board to share community oversight, strategic planning, financial oversight, and fundraising responsibilities equally among all board members.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>The decisions of the governing body are subject to the approval of the Foundation's sole member, Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare.

        <Explanation>A copy of the form 990 was provided to every member of the governing body before it was filed. The form was completed by a committee that included representatives from finance, human resources, development and communications. This committee prepared all the documentation necessary; the forms were compiled by Gillette's accounting firm and reviewed by our legal counsel. The draft documents were then reviewed by the vice president of finance, the vice president of strategic planning, and the vice president of development. After all internal reviews were complete, the final version was presented to the finance committee and the board of directors for approval.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Gillette enforces policies on external professional activities. Gillette employees, officers, volunteers, board members, and medical staff members are expected to disclose outside activities that involve potential conflicts of interests. In fact, directors must sign a conflict of interest statement acknowledging any potential conflicts related to Gillette. Gillette requires staff members to discuss potential conflicts with their immediate manager and with the manager of quality improvement resources. The disclosure includes a written description of the activity, the extent of the staff member's participation, and the possible duration of the relationship. If a conflict exists, the employee must not engage in the activity.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Foundation staff members are employed by Gillette. Gillette is the organization that actually pays the compensation and has the process for determining compensation as stated below. At the request of the personnel committee of the Board of Directors, an independent consultant provides the committee with survey data along with its needs and expenses for patient care, under- and uncompensated care, and recommendations for chief executive officer (CEO)/president and other executive salary ranges. The ranges are developed by the external consultant based on Gillette's compensation philosophy, which was developed by the personnel committee and adopted by the Board of Directors. The compensation philosophy is reviewed regularly. The members of this committee determine the CEO/president's salary and the salary ranges for other executives. The committee oversees the executive incentive plan, approves any incentive plan payouts, and regularly evaluates the benefits provided to executives. The external consultant has provided an opinion that the CEO/president's total compensation is well within the standards of reasonableness and fair market value. In addition to the oversight function of executive total compensation, the personnel committee oversees any payments under any incentive compensation plans and evaluates all transactions with "disqualified persons."</Explanation>

        <Explanation>According to new accounting guidelines, Gillette is obligated to answer "no" to this question because the Gillette board of directors or a subcommittee of the board of directors does not review Gillette's document retention and destruction policy. In fact, Gillette has written record retention policies for both patient medical records and for other records, including those of legal, historical, fiscal/tax and operational value. Gillette's chief executive officer, Margaret Perryman, has reviewed and approved the policies.</Explanation>
