| Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a | SPP executives and management level personnel periodically use private plans or charter travel for business purposes. Occasionally, Nicholas Brown (CEO and President) is accompanied by his spouse when traveling for business purposes. The costs related to this travel are paid by Southwest Power Pool. SPP has a travel and expense reimbursement policy in place to govern expenses incurred by employees for the benefit of the company. Also, all employees of the organization who are eligible to receive benefits are provided an insurance credit which is grossed-up for payroll purposes and reported as taxable compensation. There's no specific policy that governs the insurance gross-up payments, however it's a company-wide practice. |
| Schedule J, Part I, Line 3 | The Human Resources committee is responsible for ensuring the critical job functions and goals of the SPP President are documented and communicated to the SPP President annually. Included in this annual review, the committee ensures the SPP President receives a documented review of performance against the stated critical functions and goals. The committee recommends compensation and benefit adjustments for the SPP President during their annual review. The Chair of the HR committee, in conjunction with the chair of the SPP Board of Directors, reviews the recommendations and documentation and approves any compensation adjustments for the SPP President. This annual review is conducted every January. |
| Schedule J, Part II | On March 20, 2015, Stacy L. Duckett, Vice President and Chief Compliance Officer, passed away. In accordance with SPP Pension Plan provisions regarding eligibility of beneficiaries, the benefit that she had accumulated during her employment was forfeited, resulting in a negative amount in column (C) - Retirement and other deferred compensation. |
