Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements do not include any provision for uncertain tax positions, and no related interest or penalties have been recorded in the operating statement or accrued in the statement of financial position. Federal and state tax returns of the Organization are generally open to examination by the relevant taxing authorities for a period of three years from the date on which the returns are filed. See Part V Director Cash flow X 90000 50000 false true true 50000 Schedule L, Part V Supplemental Information Part II, Line (1), Column (a) - Name of Interested Person: Darren Dittrich Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 1a The chair of the board, vice-chair, treasurer, and the executive director serve on the executive committee and exercise all the authority of the board in the management of the Organization's business and affairs, except where action of the whole board is expressly required by the TBOC, the Articles of Incorporation, or the Organization's bylaws. Any member of the executive committee may be removed, for or without cause, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the board. Any vacancy in the executive committee shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the board. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8b Though the executive committee met during the year, meetings were informal and no formal actions were taken. As a result, minutes were not kept. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The interim executive director sent this Form 990 to the entire board via email and asked for approval via a reply email within three working days after a draft was received from the preparer. The executive committee also discussed the return in detail on a teleconference call. It was approved when a majority of the board accepted the draft. Any changes or recommendations from the board were forwarded to the preparer for modification before filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Duty to Disclose - In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest and prior to Shakespeare Dallas' entering into or consummating any proposed transaction or arrangement, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial or organizational interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors at a regularly scheduled meeting of the board of directors of Shakespeare Dallas regardless of whether the entering into or consummating of the proposed transaction or arrangement would require a vote of the board of directors. The board of directors may delegate to a standing or special committee the review of a potential conflict of interest and any such committee must report back to the board of directors regarding the committee's findings including the committee's recommendation of whether a conflict of interest exists. However, only the board of directors, acting at a regularly scheduled meeting, has the authority to determine whether a conflict of interest exists. When requested by the board of directors (not less frequently than once a year), each director (or other member of a committee of the board of directors), officer, and key employee shall promptly submit a statement to the board of directors setting forth all business and other affiliations, which relate in any way to the business and other affiliations of Shakespeare Dallas.Duty to Abstain - No director shall vote on any matter in which the director has amaterial and direct financial or organizational interest that will be affected by the outcome of the vote. In the event of such an abstention, the abstaining director shall state the reason for the abstention, which shall be noted in the minutes of the board of directors. Further, no director (or other member of a committee of the board of directors), officer, employee, or member shall participate in any other decision-making process (that does not require the vote of the board of directors) in which such director (or other member of a committee of the board of directors),officer, employee, or member has a material and direct financial or organizational interest that will be affected by the outcome of the decision.Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists - After disclosure of the financial or organizational interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, the interested person shall leave the board of directors 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.Procedures for Addressing the Conflict of Interest - An interested person may make a presentation at the board of directors or committee meeting, but after the presentation, the interested person shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. The chairperson of the board of directors 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 board of directors or committee shall determine whether Shakespeare Dallas 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 board of directors shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors attending a regularly scheduled meeting of the board of directors at which a quorum is present (including no less than three disinterested directors) whether the transaction or arrangement is in Shakespeare Dallas' best interest, for Shakespeare Dallas' benefit, and whether the transaction or arrangement is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, the board of directors shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a The interim executive director's compensation was determined by a majority vote of independent directors upon consideration of a published salary survey for theatres of similar size and budget. This process was undertaken in November 2023. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15b This is not applicable. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 These documents are available upon request.
