Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b: Compensation Review and Approval Process for Officers and Key Employees
Among the committees of the SRI Board of Directors is the Compensation and Management Development Committee (the "Committee"), which is composed of four independent directors. On an annual basis, the Committee reviews and approves compensation levels for SRI's Senior Staff and CEO, based on comparable compensation information for similarly-situated companies. This comparable compensation information is developed or obtained by a qualified, experienced and independent compensation consultant, who provides a report and opinion to the Committee regarding the reasonableness of the proposed compensation levels in light of the external data. The minutes of the Committee reflect and document the decisions, and the basis thereof, reached by the Committee, and records relating to the data considered by the Committee and the minutes of the Committee's meetings are maintained by the VP of Human Resources and the General Counsel. In March 2010, the Compensation and Management Development Committee reviewed and approved salaries and incentives for the following Senior Executive positions: President and Chief Executive OfficerSenior Vice President and Chief Financial OfficerVice President, Legal and Business Affairs and General CounselTreasurerVice President, Policy DivisionVice President, Information Computing Sciences DivisionVice President, Biosciences DivisionVice President, Physical Sciences DivisionVice President, Engineering and Systems DivisionVice President, Corporate and Marketing CommunicationsVice President, Human ResourcesVice President, Ventures, Licensing, Strategic Programs and Government Business Development

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts
SRI maintains, trains its officers, directors and employees regarding, and enforces standards of conduct and conflict-of-interest policies which, among other things, require such persons to identify, disclose and avoid interests that could give rise to ethical conflicts. Training in SRI's code of conduct and its ethics and conflicts-of-interest policies is provided through SRI's Legal Department, as well as through its professional contracts staff, and the ethics and conflict-of-interest policies are posted on SRI's internal website. SRI's ethics officer is reachable by all employees through SRI's ethics "hotline," and SRI's internal audit staff assists the ethics officer in investigating potential violations and recommending remedial measures. Senior management oversees these personnel and policies and takes corrective and, as warranted, disciplinary action. SRI requires its officers and directors to complete an annual disclosure form which is reviewed for potential conflicts. In the event of potential conflicts, the persons involved are barred from participating in the deliberations and decisions regarding the matter which is the subject of the conflict.
