THE CENTER'S CONTROLLER DOES THE FIRST REVIEW INTERNALLY BY MATCHING ALL THE NUMBERS TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RECORDS, AND CHECKING ALL NON-QUANTITATIVE RESPONSE FOR ACCURACY BEFORE A SECOND REVIEW IS DONE BY THE VICE PRESIDENT - ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE, FOLLOWED BY A THIRD REVIEW BY THE COO & CHIEF OF STAFF AND THEN A FINAL REVIEW BY THE PRESIDENT & CEO. THE CENTER'S GENERAL COUNSEL THEN REVIEWS THE DOCUMENT AS NEEDED TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THEREAFTER REVIEWS THE DOCUMENT, AND IT IS THEN PROVIDED TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS BEFORE IT IS FILED. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C EACH YEAR, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A FORM DISCLOSING ANY INTERESTS THAT MAY GIVE RISE TO A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. THESE FORMS ARE USED TO HELP DETERMINE ISSUES ON WHICH POTENTIAL CONFLICTS MIGHT ARISE. AFTER DISCLOSURE OF THE FINANCIAL INTEREST AND ALL MATERIAL FACTS, AND AFTER ANY DISCUSSION WITH THE INTERESTED PERSON, THE INTERESTED PERSON SHALL LEAVE THE GOVERNING BOARD OR COMMITTEE MEETING WHILE THE DETERMINATION OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS DISCUSSED AND VOTED UPON. THE REMAINING BOARD OR COMMITTEE MEMBERS SHALL DECIDE IF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS. THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE GOVERNING BOARD OR COMMITTEE SHALL, IF APPROPRIATE, APPOINT A DISINTERESTED PERSON OR COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT. AFTER EXERCISING DUE DILIGENCE, THE GOVERNING BOARD OR COMMITTEE SHALL DETERMINE BY A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE DISINTERESTED DIRECTORS WHETHER NWLC CAN OBTAIN WITH REASONABLE EFFORTS A MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT FROM A PERSON OR ENTITY THAT WOULD NOT GIVE RISE TO A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. IF A MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT IS NOT REASONABLY POSSIBLE UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES NOT PRODUCING A CONFLICT OF INTEREST, THE GOVERNING BOARD OR COMMITTEE SHALL DETERMINE BY A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE DISINTERESTED DIRECTORS WHETHER THE TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT IS IN NWLC'S BEST INTEREST, FOR ITS OWN BENEFIT, AND WHETHER IT IS FAIR AND REASONABLE. IN CONFORMITY WITH THE ABOVE DETERMINATION THE GOVERNING BOARD OR COMMITTEE SHALL MAKE ITS DECISION AS TO WHETHER NWLC SHOULD ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE BOARD DESIGNATES A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, WHICH HIRES AN OUTSIDE CONSULTANT TO CONDUCT AN ANNUAL COMPARABILITY STUDY, BASED ON DATA REGARDING SIMILARLY SITUATED NONPROFITS IN WASHINGTON, DC AND NATIONALLY. THE CONSULTANT PROVIDES THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE WITH AN ANALYSIS REGARDING REASONABLENESS OF THE CENTER'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION, WHICH THE COMMITTEE USES TO SET COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. THE COMMITTEE'S DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS ARE DOCUMENTED IN MEETING MINUTES THAT ARE CONTEMPORANEOUSLY DRAFTED AND APPROVED. A COMPENSATION REVIEW WAS LAST COMPLETED IN JUNE 2024 FOR NWLC'S VICE PRESIDENTS AND IN JULY 2024 FOR THE CEO.
