| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1: | THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") HAS, FOR OVER NINETY YEARS, PIONEERED THE EFFECTIVE USE OF ARBITRATION, MEDIATION AND OTHER FORMS OF ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION. THE AAA DOES NOT DECIDE CASES. RATHER, IT PROVIDES A FORUM FOR THE HEARING OF DISPUTES, TESTED RULES AND PROCEDURES THAT HAVE BROAD ACCEPTANCE AND A ROSTER OF 5,476 IMPARTIAL ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS TO HEAR AND RESOLVE CASES. RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR STANDING, EXPERTISE IN THEIR FIELDS, AND THEIR DISPUTE RESOLUTION SKILLS, ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS ARE NOMINATED TO THE ASSOCIATION'S NATIONAL PANEL BY LEADERS IN THEIR INDUSTRY OR PROFESSION. THEIR CONDUCT IS GUIDED BY A CODE OF ETHICS, SUCH AS ONE DEVELOPED JOINTLY BY THE AAA AND THE AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION. AT YEAR END 2019 THE AAA HAD 27 DOMESTIC OFFICES AND 4 INTERNATIONAL OFFICES LOCATED IN BAHRAIN, MEXICO, SINGAPORE AND KOREA AND 87 COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS WITH ARBITRAL INSTITUTIONS, UNIVERSITIES AND CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE IN 54 NATIONS. THE AAA'S WEBSITE WWW.ADR.ORG HAD OVER 1.4 MILLION VISITS IN 2019, WITH NEARLY 5.2 MILLION PAGES VIEWED. ADDITIONALLY, THE ADMINISTRATION OF ELECTION SERVICES IS A SPECIALIZED AND UNIQUE CAPABILITY OF THE AAA, AND IS PROVIDED TO VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS, ASSOCIATIONS AND UNIONS. PROCEDURES SEEK TO ASSURE THE EQUITY OF RESULTS AND GIVE THE PARTICIPANTS THE SECURITY OF KNOWING THAT THEIR DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS HAVE BEEN FULLY AND FAIRLY PRESERVED. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2 | WHILE THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") HAS NO ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE OF ANY FAMILY OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OFFICERS, TRUSTEES OR KEY EMPLOYEES, WE WOULD ANTICIPATE THAT AMONG THE GOVERNING BODY, THAT IS COMPOSED OF A WIDE RANGE OF LEADERS FROM VARIOUS FIELDS, THAT SOME RELATIONSHIP MAY EXIST. HOWEVER, THE AAA HAS RELIED UPON THE RESPONSES OF OFFICERS, TRUSTEES AND KEY EMPLOYEES TO ANNUAL QUESTIONNAIRES DESIGNED TO ELICIT THE DISCLOSURE OF THESE RELATIONSHIPS, AND ALTHOUGH THESE ARE NOTED AS REASONABLE EFFORTS IN THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS FORM, IT IS WITH AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION THAT WE HAVE RESPONDED AFFIRMATIVELY TO THIS QUESTION. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 6 | THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION IS A CORPORATION WITH MEMBERS WHO ARE COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS THE COUNCIL OF THE AAA. THERE ARE NO SEPARATE OR DISTINCT MEMBERSHIP CLASSES WITHIN THE COUNCIL OF THE AAA. AS NOTED IN THE BYLAWS OF THE AAA, THE COUNCIL CONSISTS OF BETWEEN 80 AND 100 MEMBERS. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONSISTS OF 15 TO 18 COUNCIL MEMBERS, PLUS THREE OFFICERS WHO ARE EX OFFICIO DIRECTORS. THE COUNCIL HAS THE POWER TO ELECT COUNCIL MEMBERS, DIRECTORS AND CERTAIN OFFICERS, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT, CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE CHAIR OF THE COUNCIL. COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE ELECTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE COUNCIL TO A THREE-YEAR TERM AND ARE ELIGIBLE TO BE ELECTED FOR UP TO THREE SUCCESSIVE THREE-YEAR TERMS. ALSO, PER THE BYLAWS, "ANY VACANCIES ON THE COUNCIL MAY BE FILLED BY THE COUNCIL OR BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. A MEMBER ELECTED BY THE COUNCIL TO FILL A VACANCY SHALL BE ELECTED FOR THE UNEXPIRED TERM OF THE MEMBER'S PREDECESSOR IN OFFICE AND UNTIL HIS OR HER SUCCESSOR IS DULY ELECTED AND QUALIFIED. A MEMBER ELECTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO FILL A VACANCY SHALL BE ELECTED FOR THE TERM OF OFFICE CONTINUING ONLY UNTIL THE NEXT ANNUAL MEETING OF THE COUNCIL, AND UNTIL HIS OR HER SUCCESSOR IS DULY ELECTED, APPOINTED AND QUALIFIED BY THE COUNCIL." |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A | AS PER THE BYLAWS OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA), "THE MEMBERS OF THE CORPORATION SHALL BE COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS THE COUNCIL OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION AND CONSISTS OF BETWEEN 80 TO 100 MEMBERS. THE COUNCIL HAS THE POWER TO ELECT COUNCIL MEMBERS, DIRECTORS AND CERTAIN OFFICERS, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT, THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE CHAIR OF THE COUNCIL. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B | PRIOR TO SUBMISSION TO THE AUDIT COMMITTEE, THE SUBSTANTIVE INPUT FOR THE FORM 990 IS GATHERED AND REVIEWED BY SENIOR MANAGEMENT BASED UPON RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR RESPECTIVE AREAS OF OPERATIONS. IT IS COMPILED AND REVIEWED BY THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF THE AAA'S INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTING FIRM. IT IS THEN SUBMITTED FOR REVIEW TO EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT AT THE OFFICER LEVEL (PRESIDENT AND CEO, CFO / TREASURER AND GENERAL COUNSEL / CORPORATE SECRETARY.) SUBSEQUENT TO THESE REVIEWS THE FORM 990 IS FORWARDED TO THE COMMITTEE, AND IS MADE AVAILABLE TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. ONCE REVIEWED BY THE COMMITTEE, IT IS SIGNED BY THE CFO / TREASURER AS THE APPROPRIATE OFFICER OF THE AAA, AND TRANSMITTED TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) BY THE AAA'S INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTING FIRM. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | PER THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION'S (AAA'S) BYLAWS: "THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OR A DULY AUTHORIZED COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD COMPRISED SOLELY OF DIRECTORS WHO SATISFY THE DEFINITION OF "INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR" WITHIN THE MEANING OF NPCC, SHALL OVERSEE THE ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AND COMPLIANCE WITH A CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY" DIRECTORS COMPLETE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST FORM ANNUALLY. A SEPARATE ANNUAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT IS REQUIRED BY THE AAA OF ITS OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES. IN BOTH INSTANCES, THE CORPORATE SECRETARY, ALSO THE AAA'S GENERAL COUNSEL, MANAGES THE RECEIPT AND REVIEW OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST SUBMISSIONS. THE AAA HAS RELIED UPON THE RESPONSES OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND KEY EMPLOYEES TO ANNUAL QUESTIONNAIRES DESIGNED TO ELICIT THE DISCLOSURE OF THESE RELATIONSHIPS, AND REVIEW OF THESE FORMS IS NOTED AS REASONABLE EFFORT PER THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THIS FORM. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 | EACH YEAR, THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE AAA'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING AND RECOMMENDING THE COMPENSATION OF THE AAA'S PRESIDENT AND CEO. THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS THEN REVIEWS AND DETERMINES THE PRESIDENT AND CEO'S COMPENSATION. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE CONSISTS ENTIRELY OF INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS WHO DID NOT HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. IN CONDUCTING THEIR REVIEW AND MAKING THEIR DETERMINATION, THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RELY UPON MARKET COMPARABILITY DATA FOR SIMILARLY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS IN FUNCTIONALLY COMPARABLE POSITIONS AT SIMILARLY SITUATED ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDED BY AN INDEPENDENT NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED COMPENSATION CONSULTING FIRM WITH EXPERTISE ADVISING NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. IN ADDITION, THE COMPENSATION CONSULTING FIRM ALSO ISSUED AN OPINION LETTER CERTIFYING TO THE REASONABLENESS OF THE PRESIDENT AND CEO'S TOTAL COMPENSATION UNDER SECTION 4958 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. PERFORMANCE REVIEWS ARE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, INCLUDING ACHIEVEMENT TOWARDS OBJECTIVES ALIGNED WITH PROMOTING THE AAA'S MISSION AND SUPPORTING ITS OPERATIONS. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND BOARD'S DELIBERATIONS AND VOTE ARE DOCUMENTED CONTEMPORANEOUSLY. THE COMPENSATION DETERMINATION PROCESS IS INTENDED TO QUALIFY FOR THE "REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION OF REASONABLENESS" UNDER TREASURY REGULATION 53.4958-6. PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15B: THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE AAA'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING AND APPROVING THE OVERALL COMPENSATION STRATEGY OF OTHER OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES, AND THE PRESIDENT'S RECOMMENDATIONS FOR BASE SALARY AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE CONSISTS ENTIRELY OF INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS WHO DID NOT HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 | THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") MAKES AVAILABLE ITS FORM 990 FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION UPON REQUEST, AND IT IS MADE AVAILABLE ON THE WWW.GUIDESTAR.ORG WEBSITE AS WELL.

| FORM 990, PART VII, SECTION B, LINE 1: | THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA", "THE ASSOCIATION") MAINTAINS A ROSTER OF 5,476 IMPARTIAL ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS TO HEAR AND RESOLVE CASES. TO MAINTAIN NEUTRALITY AND INTEGRITY OF THE ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS, THE ASSOCIATION FACILITATES PAYMENT TO ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS ON MOST CASES ON BEHALF OF THE PARTIES TO AAA ADMINISTERED CASES BY ACTING AS A CONDUIT FOR SUCH PAYMENTS. IN OTHER WORDS, THE ASSOCIATION DELIVERS PARTY PAYMENTS TO ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS, AND ISSUES A 1099-MISCELLANEOUS FORM TO EACH ARBITRATOR AND MEDIATOR AT YEAR END CONSOLIDATING ALL PARTY PAYMENTS MADE THROUGH THE AAA IN THAT PERIOD. ANY RELATED EXPENSES INCURRED BY ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARTIES, NOT THE ASSOCIATION. ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS ARE NOT CONSIDERED TO BE INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS AS DEFINED BY THE IRS FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE FORM 990, AS THEY PROVIDE NO GOOD OR SERVICE DIRECTLY TO THE ASSOCIATION. THE 3,871 FORM 1099-MISCELLANEOUS SUBMISSIONS NOTED ON PART V, QUESTION 1A INCLUDE ACCOUNTS FOR PAYMENTS MADE BY PARTIES TO IMPARTIAL ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS THROUGH THE AAA. THE AAA RECORDS THESE FUNDS IN A CUSTODIAL CAPACITY AS A LIABILITY ON THE AAA'S BALANCE SHEET. THESE FUNDS ARE NOT RECORDED OR RECOGNIZED AS INCOME OR EXPENSE. THE AAA ENSURES THAT THE IRS RECEIVES A 1099-MISCELLANEOUS FOR THE ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS' CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL ACTIVITY. SOME ARBITRATORS AND MEDIATORS ARE MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
