Part III
Supplemental Information
Provide the information, explanation, or descriptions required for Part I, lines 1a, 1b, 3, 4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7, and 8, and for Part II. Also complete this part for any additional information.
Return Reference Explanation
SCHEDULE J, PART I; QUESTION 1A CERTAIN BENEFITS, SUCH AS COMPANION TRAVEL, ARE PROVIDED ONLY AS EXCEPTIONS TO CORPORATE POLICY IN COMPELLING CIRCUMSTANCES INVOLVING STRONG BUSINESS PURPOSES. WHEN THESE BUSINESS-RELATED BENEFITS ARE APPROVED AND PROVIDED, HMH ALSO PROVIDES REIMBURSEMENT OF THE TAX, SO THAT THE BENEFIT IS PROVIDED WITHOUT COST TO THE INDIVIDUAL. THE TAX REIMBURSEMENTS WERE TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME AND REPORTED AS SUCH ON THE FORM W-2 (OR 1099-MISC, IN THE CASE OF A BOARD MEMBER), AND INCLUDED IN THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN SCHEDULE J FOR LISTED INDIVIDUALS. FIRST CLASS TRAVEL: HMH HAS A DETAILED AND THOROUGH CORPORATE POLICY ON REIMBURSEMENT OF BUSINESS EXPENSES, INCLUDING EXPENSES OF TRAVEL FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES. THE HMH EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT POLICY GENERALLY PROHIBITS FIRST CLASS TRAVEL, BUT ALLOWS AN UPGRADE IN VERY LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES. HMH ENCOURAGES SENIOR LEADERS TO UTILIZE THE TRAIN NETWORK FOR TRAVEL WHEN APPROPRIATE. HMH'S POLICY ALLOWS FOR BUSINESS CLASS TRAVEL (WHICH CAN BE THE EQUIVALENT OF FIRST CLASS TRAVEL, WHERE BUSINESS CLASS IS THE ONLY CLASS ABOVE ECONOMY/COACH), IF THE TRAVEL SEGMENT EXCEEDS TEN HOURS OF SCHEDULED FLYING TIME OR IF APPROVED BY THE CEO. THE BUSINESS CLASS AFFORDS THE TRAVELER THE ABILITY TO WORK ON CONFIDENTIAL HMH RELATED BUSINESS DURING TRAVEL TIME. UNLIKE BUSINESS CLASS, TRAVELING COACH DOES NOT PROVIDE THE EXECUTIVE WITH A REASONABLE MEANS TO WORK ON HMH BUSINESS DURING TRAVEL TIME. NO AMOUNTS HAVE BEEN INCLUDED AS REPORTABLE COMPENSATION AS THESE TRAVEL EXPENSES WERE INCURRED FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES. BUSINESS CLASS TRAVEL (WHERE THE EQUIVALENT OF FIRST CLASS TRAVEL) WAS PROVIDED TO FOUR SENIOR EXECUTIVES AND TWO BOARD MEMBERS. TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS: HMH PROVIDES FOR BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO SPOUSAL TRAVEL FOR CRITICAL BUSINESS EVENTS THAT ARE ORDINARY AND NECESSARY. THE BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO SPEND AN EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME AWAY FROM THEIR FAMILIES. THE SPOUSES HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN ASSURING THE ATTENDANCE AND FOCUS OF BOARD MEMBERS AND CEO AT THESE CRITICAL ORGANIZATION EVENTS. SUCH SPOUSAL TRAVEL WAS PROVIDED IN 2022 TO ONE BOARD MEMBER, AND THE ENTIRE SPOUSAL TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT AMOUNT HAS BEEN TREATED AS TAXABLE INCOME TO THIS INDIVIDUAL.
SCHEDULE J, PART I; QUESTION 3 PLEASE REFER TO OUR RESPONSE TO CORE FORM, PART VI, SECTION B, QUESTIONS 15A & 15B INCLUDED IN SCHEDULE O.
SCHEDULE J; PART I; QUESTION 4B THE AMOUNT REFLECTED IN COLUMN B(III) FOR THE FOLLOWING INDIVIDUALS INCLUDES PARTICIPATION IN A SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN ("SERP") AS THE AMOUNTS WERE NO LONGER SUBJECT TO A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF COMPLETE FORFEITURE. THE AMOUNTS OUTLINED HEREIN WERE INCLUDED IN EACH INDIVIDUAL'S 2022 FORM W-2 AS TAXABLE WAGES: ROBERT C. GARRETT, FACHE, $904,854; ROBERT L. GLENNING, $384,734; TIMOTHY J. HOGAN, $362,506; ANN B. GAVZY, ESQ., $209,740; AUDREY C. MURPHY, ESQ., MSN, RN, $682,354; MARK STAUDER, $258,957; IHOR S. SAWCZUK, M.D., $227,681; KENNETH N. SABLE, M.D., $196,246; PATRICK YOUNG, $180,672; JAMES BLAZAR, $153,901; CATHERINE AINORA, $31,101; MARK D.
