BELOW IS A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS: THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER (CEO) AND OTHER OFFICERS ARE SUBJECT TO THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES. IN 2008, JEANNE JONES, A MEMBER OF THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND A RECOGNIZED LEADER IN THE HUMAN RESOURCES INDUSTRY, WAS DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, TO PROVIDE AN ON-GOING REVIEW OF THE COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR THE CEO AND THE ORGANIZATION'S OTHER OFFICERS, UTILIZING INDUSTRY SURVEYS, OTHER NATIONAL AND REGIONAL COMPARISON STUDIES AND INDEPENDENT EXPERTS, AS NEEDED, AND TO REPORT SUCH FINDINGS TO THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. IN Q3, 2010, A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE WAS ESTABLISHED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, WHICH INCLUDES THE SENIOR DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND THREE INDEPENDENT BOARD OF TRUSTEE MEMBERS, ENSURES THE ORGANIZATION'S PAY STRUCTURE AND BENEFITS PROGRAMS ARE FAIR, COMPETITIVE (BASED ON MARKET DATA), AND ALIGNED WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S BUSINESS STRATEGY AND MISSION. ADDITIONALLY, THE COMMITTEE RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: 1) OVERSEEING ALL ASPECTS OF COMPENSATION PROVIDED TO SENIOR LEADERSHIP OF THE ORGANIZATION, INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT/CEO, IN ORDER TO REWARD PERFORMANCE WHILE ENSURING FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY; 2) ESTABLISHING OVERALL TOTAL COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY FOR THE ORGANIZATION; 3) ASSURING THAT THE HOSPICE'S COMPENSATION PRACTICES ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS; 4) ANALYZING STATE AND NATIONAL SURVEY DATA; 5) RETAINING ADVISERS TO INCLUDE COMPENSATION EXPERTS, AS IT MAY DEEM NECESSARY. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE PROVIDES AN ANNUAL SALARY ANALYSIS, INCLUDING THE COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR THE CEO AND OTHER OFFICERS, TO THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. THE FINANCE COMMITTEE REVIEWS THE COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SENIOR LEADERSHIP, IN AN ANNUAL EXECUTIVE SESSION. ONCE APPROVED BY THE COMMITTEE, THE COMPENSATION PACKAGE AND FORMAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION FOR THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER IS SUBMITTED TO THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL. FORMAL APPROVAL OF THE ANNUAL COMPENSATION PACKAGE IS DOCUMENTED IN THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' MEETING. IN DECEMBER OF 2009, BONUSES WERE AWARDED TO THE CEO AND OTHER OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES BASED ON PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS. BONUS AMOUNTS WERE DETERMINED USING A FIXED FORMULA IN WHICH NO PERSON EXERCISED DISCRETION WHEN CALCULATING THE AMOUNT OF THE PAYMENT OR DECIDING WHETHER A PAYMENT SHOULD BE MADE. BONUSES WERE ISSUED IN LIEU OF MERIT PAY ADJUSTMENTS FOR 2009 AND 2010. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES REVIEWED AND APPROVED THE BONUS AWARDS. THE DECISIONS REGARDING THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED IN THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' MEETING.
