FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 1B	INDEPENDENT VOTING MEMBERS OF GOVERNING BODY	NO MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF COMMONFUND OTHER THAN THE PRESIDENT - WHO IS A MEMBER OF THE BOARD EX OFFICIO - ARE MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT AND ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD ARE NOMINATED BY A NOMINATING COMMITTEE THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT. THE PRESIDENT IS A VOTING MEMBER OF THE BOARD, BUT IS NOT PERMITTED TO SERVE ON THE BOARD'S AUDIT & RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE, THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, OR THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE (ALTHOUGH THE PRESIDENT IS CONSULTED ON COMPENSATION MATTERS FOR OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS AND SUCH ADDITIONAL SENIOR EXECUTIVES AS THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE DEEMS APPROPRIATE). IT HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN THE CASE THAT NO MEMBER OF COMMONFUND GROUP'S MANAGEMENT (OTHER THAN THE PRESIDENT) HAS SERVED AS A TRUSTEE WHILE SO EMPLOYED. IT IS ALSO THE BOARD'S POLICY THAT NO MEMBER OF MANAGEMENT SERVES ON ANY OF ITS COMMITTEES, OTHER THAN THE PRESIDENT IN HIS OR HER ROLE AS A MEMBER OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE ESTABLISHES STANDARDS OF INDEPENDENCE THAT PREVENT TRUSTEES FROM SERVING ON THE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE IF THEY HAVE ANY MATERIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH COMMONFUND GROUP; THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ESTABLISHES SUCH STANDARDS FOR THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 4	SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS	DURING ITS QUARTERLY MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2011, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVED AN AMENDMENT TO COMMONFUND'S BYLAWS, WHICH (I) ELIMINATED THE PROHIBITION FROM SERVICE ON THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE DURING THE YEAR IN WHICH A TRUSTEE FACES RE-ELECTION TO THE BOARD; AND (II) ADDED A NEW RESTRICTION THAT NO TRUSTEE MAY SERVE ON THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE FOR MORE THAN FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS WITHOUT THE INTERRUPTION OF AT LEAST ONE YEAR. DURING ITS QUARTERLY MEETING ON DECEMBER 16, 2011, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVED AN AMENDMENT TO COMMONFUND'S BYLAWS, WHICH ELIMINATED THE REQUIREMENTS THAT (I) THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD BE AFFILIATED WITH A COMMONFUND MEMBER INSTITUTION; AND (II) THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE MANAGE THE NOMINATION PROCESS SO THAT AT LEAST A MAJORITY OF THE TRUSTEES BE SIMILARLY AFFILIATED.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 6 & LINE 7A	ELECTION OF THE GOVERNING BODY	COMMONFUND IS GOVERNED BY A BOARD OF TRUSTEES, WHOSE MEMBERS ARE ELECTED BY COMMONFUND'S MEMBER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS (ONE MEMBER, ONE VOTE) AT COMMONFUND'S ANNUAL MEETING (GENERALLY HELD IN DECEMBER OF EACH CALENDAR YEAR). NOMINATIONS OF CANDIDATES TO BE ELECTED AS MEMBERS OF COMMONFUND'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE MADE BY THE BOARD'S GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE. MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE ARE INDEPENDENT OF MANAGEMENT, AND NO TRUSTEE MAY SERVE ON THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE FOR MORE THAN FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OF AT LEAST ONE YEAR. WHILE IT IS THE DUTY OF THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE TO NOMINATE TRUSTEE CANDIDATES, THE COMMITTEE HAS DETERMINED, CONSISTENT WITH CURRENT BEST PRACTICE IN THE NONPROFIT SECTOR, THAT IT SHOULD ENGAGE AN INDEPENDENT SEARCH FIRM TO ASSIST IT IN IDENTIFYING CANDIDATES IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT IT CONSIDERS QUALIFIED CANDIDATES BEYOND THE CIRCLE OF INDIVIDUALS ALREADY KNOWN TO THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS OR TO COMMONFUND MANAGEMENT.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 11A	REVIEW PROCESS FORM 990	THE COMMONFUND FORM 990 IS DRAFTED BY COMMONFUND'S MANAGEMENT AND REVIEWED BY COMMONFUND'S INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT AND TAX CONSULTANT. A DRAFT OF THE FORM 990 IS FURNISHED TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE BOARD WHO DELEGATE THE DUTY TO REVIEW THE FORM AND ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS TO MANAGEMENT, TO THE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD AND, IN THE CASE OF PART VI, TO THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD. THESE COMMITTEES REPORT THE RESULTS OF THEIR REVIEW TO THE FULL BOARD. BETWEEN THE TIME OF COMMITTEE AND BOARD REVIEW AND THE ACTUAL FILING OF THE FORM 990, MANAGEMENT RETAINS THE ABILITY TO AMEND THE VERSION OR VERSIONS SO REVIEWED, PROVIDED THAT, SUCH AMENDMENTS ARE APPROVED BY COUNSEL AND BY COMMONFUND'S EXTERNAL TAX CONSULTANTS, AS WELL AS BY THE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER. MANAGEMENT IS REQUIRED TO DISCUSS WITH THE CHAIRS OF THE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE AND/OR THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE ANY PROPOSED CHANGES THAT WOULD MATERIALLY CHANGE THE CONTENT OF THE FORM 990, IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER ANY FURTHER REVIEW BY THE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE, THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, OR THE FULL BOARD WOULD BE APPROPRIATE PRIOR TO FILING. PRIOR TO FILING, THE FINAL FORM 990, INCLUDING ATTACHMENTS, WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO ALL TRUSTEES FOR THEIR REFERENCE.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 12C	CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY	TRUSTEES, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES OF COMMONFUND GROUP ARE SUBJECT TO POLICIES ADOPTED BY THE ORGANIZATION AND APPROVED BY COMMONFUND'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES THAT ARE DESIGNED TO AVOID IMPROPER CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. COMMONFUND'S AUTHORIZING LEGISLATION PROVIDES THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE SHALL RECEIVE ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT PECUNIARY PROFIT FROM, NOR HAVE ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT PECUNIARY INTEREST IN, THE OPERATIONS OF COMMONFUND OR ANY FUND ESTABLISHED THEREIN, OTHER THAN SALARY OR COMPENSATION FOR SERVICES RENDERED, REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES, BENEFITS RECEIVED AS A PROPER BENEFICIARY OF ITS STRICTLY EDUCATIONAL AND CHARITABLE PURPOSES. ADDITIONALLY, THESE POLICIES PROVIDE THAT NO AFFECTED PERSON SHALL, WITHOUT THE PRIOR CONSENT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, HAVE ANY RELATIONSHIP AS DIRECTOR, OFFICER, PARTNER, EMPLOYEE, ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER, OR SIMILAR RELATIONSHIP WITH, NOR HAVE ANY SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL INTEREST IN, ANY INVESTMENT MANAGER OR CUSTODIAN BANK OF COMMONFUND OR ANY SECURITIES BROKER/DEALER AFFECTING TRANSACTIONS FOR COMMONFUND. PURSUANT TO THESE POLICIES, OFFICIAL POSITIONS OR FINANCIAL INTERESTS THAT MAY CONFLICT OR APPEAR TO CONFLICT WITH THE INTERESTS OF COMMONFUND ARE DISCLOSED IN ANNUAL QUESTIONNAIRES COMPLETED BY EACH AFFECTED PERSON. RESPONSES TO THESE QUESTIONNAIRES ARE REVIEWED BY THE COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT AND, IN APPROPRIATE CASES, PROCEDURES ARE ADOPTED SO THAT INDIVIDUALS AVOID PARTICIPATION IN COMMONFUND MATTERS. PERSONS COVERED BY THESE POLICIES ARE REQUIRED TO AFFIRM COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST POLICY ANNUALLY AND COMMONFUND'S COMPLIANCE GROUP ENGAGES IN INTERNAL AUDIT PROCEDURES DESIGNED TO TEST SUCH COMPLIANCE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
FORM 990, PART VI, LINE 15	COMPENSATION POLICY	THE PURPOSES OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ARE TO REVIEW AND PROVIDE ADVICE ON SIGNIFICANT PERSONNEL ISSUES. THIS FUNCTION INCLUDES RESPONSIBILITY: (A) TO REVIEW ANNUALLY THE PRESIDENT'S PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO GOALS AND TO ESTABLISH HIS/HER COMPENSATION; (B) TO RECEIVE AND DISCUSS THE PRESIDENT'S EVALUATION OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR EXECUTIVE TEAM AND TO REVIEW AND APPROVE THE PRESIDENT'S PROPOSALS FOR THEIR COMPENSATION; (C) TO REVIEW AND APPROVE COMPENSATION PROGRAMS FOR ALL EMPLOYEES OF THE CORPORATION WITH A RANK OF MANAGING DIRECTOR AND ABOVE INCLUDING INCENTIVE PLANS, RETIREMENT PLANS AND OTHER BENEFIT ARRANGEMENTS; (D) TO REVIEW AND PROVIDE ADVICE CONCERNING THE SUCCESSION PLAN FOR EACH POSITION REPRESENTED ON THE SENIOR EXECUTIVE TEAM AND FOR OTHER POSITIONS IN THE CORPORATION THAT IT DESIGNATES; (E) TO REVIEW STAFFING ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE CORPORATION AND PROVIDE ADVICE WITH RESPECT TO THOSE ARRANGEMENTS; (F) TO CONSIDER AND ADVISE THE PRESIDENT WITH RESPECT TO TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OF EMPLOYEES WITH A RANK ABOVE THAT OF MANAGING DIRECTOR AND, WHEN CONSULTED BY THE PRESIDENT, ON OTHER TERMINATION MATTERS; (G) JOINTLY WITH THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, TO RECOMMEND TO THE BOARD THE COMPENSATION TO BE PAID TO TRUSTEES, INCLUDING THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD; & (H) TO RECEIVE PERIODIC REPORTS FROM THE PRESIDENT ON SUCH PERSONNEL ISSUES AS IT MAY FROM TIME TO TIME IDENTIFY AS SIGNIFICANT AND WORTHY OF ITS CONSIDERATION. TO DISCHARGE THESE RESPONSIBILITIES, IT IS THE PRACTICE OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE TO ENGAGE AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO ASSIST IT IN ITS COMPENSATION-RELATED DUTIES AND TO PROVIDE COMPARABILITY DATA. THIS DATA, AND ISSUES RELATING TO PERFORMANCE BY MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT ARE REVIEWED ANNUALLY BY THE COMMITTEE. THE PRESIDENT PARTICIPATES IN THE DISCUSSION OF PERFORMANCE OF OTHER MEMBERS OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT. THE COMMITTEE MEETS IN EXECUTIVE SESSION OUTSIDE THE PRESENCE OF THE PRESIDENT AND OTHER MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT TO DISCUSS THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PRESIDENT. MINUTES ARE KEPT OF THE DELIBERATIONS AND DECISIONS OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. THIS PROCESS WAS LAST UNDERTAKEN FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2012. THE NEXT COMPENSATION REVIEW WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE LATE SUMMER/EARLY FALL OF 2013.

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2B & LINE 2D	AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	THE COMMON FUND FOR NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS ("COMMONFUND") IS A TAX-EXEMPT MEMBERSHIP CORPORATION OPERATED BY AND FOR ITS MEMBER COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES AND INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS. TOGETHER WITH ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES, COMMONFUND PURSUES A MISSION TO IMPROVE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND TO ENHANCE THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES OF THE NONPROFIT COMMUNITY. COMMONFUND WAS ORGANIZED IN 1969 PURSUANT TO A SPECIAL ACT OF THE NEW YORK STATE LEGISLATURE AND COMMENCED OPERATIONS ON JULY 1, 1971. COMMONFUND IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 AND THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OF 1940. COMMONFUND IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX UNDER SECTIONS 501(C)(3) AND 501(F) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986. PARTICIPATION IN COMMONFUND IS LIMITED TO ORGANIZATIONS THAT BECOME MEMBERS. MEMBERSHIP IN COMMONFUND IS LIMITED TO EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 170(B)(1)(A)(II) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 170(B)(1)(A)(IV) OF THE CODE. COMMONFUND OFFERS TO ITS MEMBERS A SERIES OF POOLED INVESTMENT FUNDS, EACH OF WHICH HAS ITS OWN INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND STRATEGIES. COMMONFUND THUS GIVES ITS MEMBERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO DIVERSIFY THEIR ENDOWMENT PORTFOLIOS ACROSS ASSET CLASSES AND INVESTMENT STRATEGIES EITHER BY INVESTING ALL OF THEIR ASSETS IN SEVERAL INVESTMENT FUNDS OF COMMONFUND OR BY USING INVESTMENTS IN FUNDS OF COMMONFUND TO COMPLEMENT OTHER PORTIONS OF THEIR PORTFOLIOS. COMMONFUND IS AN ORGANIZATION WITHOUT SHAREHOLDERS. THE INVESTMENT FUNDS MAINTAINED BY COMMONFUND ARE NOT SEPARATE LEGAL ENTITIES. THEY ARE POOLS OF ASSETS HELD BY COMMONFUND FOR MANAGEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES TO WHICH EACH PARTICIPANT AGREES AS A CONDITION OF MEMBERSHIP IN COMMONFUND. FURTHERMORE, THE RULES PROVIDE THAT THE FUNDS ESTABLISHED BY COMMONFUND ARE HELD FOR THE EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT OF THE MEMBERS INVESTING IN THEM. IN ADDITION, COMMONFUND'S NEW YORK CONSTITUENT LEGISLATION PROVIDES THAT THE ASSETS OF ANY FUND ESTABLISHED BY COMMONFUND MAY NOT BE USED TO PAY THE DEBTS OR OBLIGATIONS INCURRED IN THE OPERATION OF ANY OTHER SUCH FUND, OR IN THE OPERATION OF COMMONFUND ON ITS OWN BEHALF. MEMBER FEES AND OTHER REVENUES OF COMMONFUND SUPPORT THE ORGANIZATION AS A WHOLE AND ARE NOT ALLOCATED FOR THE BENEFIT OF PARTICULAR FUNDS OR PRIVATE OWNERS. COMMONFUND OWNS AND CONTROLS A GROUP OF OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES (TOGETHER WITH COMMONFUND, AND COLLECTIVELY, "COMMONFUND GROUP"). THE SUBSIDIARIES HAVE BEEN ORGANIZED AND ARE OPERATED TO ENGAGE IN BUSINESSES OR TO PROVIDE SERVICES THAT ARE OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF COMMONFUND'S TAX EXEMPTION UNDER SECTION 501(F) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. EACH OF THE SUBSIDIARIES IS A TAXABLE ENTITY, AND AS A CONSOLIDATED GROUP THEY FILE A TAX RETURN ON FORM 1120 ANNUALLY. GIVEN COMMONFUND'S UNIQUE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE, THE FORM 990 FOR THE COMMON FUND FOR NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS REFLECTS THE COMBINED ASSETS AND ACTIVITIES OF THE INVESTMENT FUNDS AND OF COMMONFUND ITSELF (ON A PROPRIETARY BASIS, AND NOT INCLUDING THE TAXABLE OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES) AS DETAILED IN THE TABLE BELOW. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDITS ARE PERFORMED BY AN INDEPENDENT AUDITOR FOR EACH OF THE INVESTMENT FUNDS OFFERED BY COMMONFUND AND ALSO FOR THE CONSOLIDATED COMMONFUND GROUP. THESE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY COMMONFUND'S BOARD AND ARE DISTRIBUTED TO MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS. COPIES OF THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 FOR THE INVESTMENT FUNDS AND THE COMMONFUND GROUP ARE AVAILABLE ON COMMONFUND'S WEBSITE WWW.COMMONFUND.ORG.
