Top Salaries, 2006–2007

“Compensation” column includes regular compensation as well as contributions to employee benefit plans. This data is from fiscal year 2007’s IRS form 990 (July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007), dated May 15, 2008. Parenthesized numbers are negative. Form 990 includes compensation to current and former “officers, directors, and trustees” as well as the “five highest paid employees” (†). Therefore, the list beneath Kelly is not comprehensive. “Change” column calculated from FY2006 form.
