THREE NEW AREAS OF FOCUS WERE IDENTIFIED FOR THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAM. THEY ARE: PROMOTING ACCESS TO HEALTHY NUTRITION AND ENCOURAGING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, PARTICULARLY AMONG VULNERABLE POPULATIONS; PROMOTING GOOD HEALTH FOR SENIORS; AND IMPROVING HEALTH FOR INFANTS AND CHILDREN AGED 0-5.

DESCRIPTION OF PROCESS TO MONITOR TRANSACTIONS FOR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
FORM 990, PART VI, QUESTION 12C
FCHP'S BYLAWS REQUIRE ALL DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS TO DISCLOSE ANY ACTUAL OR POSSIBLE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, AS DEFINED IN THE ORGANIZATION'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY RELATING TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND MEMBERS OF A COMMITTEE WITH BOARD-DELEGATED POWERS. THIS IS ENFORCED BY THE REQUIREMENT THAT SUCH INDIVIDUALS ANNUALLY COMPLETE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. EACH YEAR THE COMPLETED CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE STATEMENTS ARE REVIEWED BY THE AUDIT AND COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD WHICH REPORTS ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS TO THE FULL BOARD. ANY BOARD MEMBER OR OFFICER WITH A CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS PROHIBITED FROM PARTICIPATING IN ANY DISCUSSION OF, OR VOTE ON, THE TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT THAT RESULTS IN THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST. TWO INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS ALSO CONDUCT AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF ANY BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE ORGANIZATION THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BENEFIT A BOARD MEMBER OR OFFICER, TO ENSURE THAT THE TRANSACTIONS DO NOT INVOLVE ANY UNDUE INFLUENCE, ARE AT FAIR MARKET VALUE, AND ARE IN THE ORGANIZATION'S BEST INTEREST. THE REVIEWING BOARD MEMBERS REPORT THEIR FINDINGS TO THE FULL BOARD. FURTHERMORE, AT BOARD MEETINGS, INDIVIDUAL BOARD MEMBERS ARE ASKED TO IDENTIFY, AND RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM ANY DISCUSSION AND VOTE ON ANY MATTER BEFORE THE BOARD IN WHICH THEY MAY HAVE A CONFLICT. FCHP ALSO REQUIRES ALL DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AND KEY EMPLOYEES, TO COMPLETE A WRITTEN DISCLOSURE STATEMENT DESIGNED TO IDENTIFY POTENTIAL CONFLICTS. FCHP ALSO HAS GENERAL CORPORATE-WIDE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICIES THAT REQUIRE REPORTING OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS AND MANAGEMENT APPROVAL OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS, AND PROHIBITS CERTAIN SPECIFIC TRANSACTIONS. THESE POLICIES ARE ENFORCED BY SENIOR MANAGEMENT, INCLUDING THE CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER.

HOWEVER, THESE POLICIES HAD NOT PREVIOUSLY BEEN FORMALLY ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OR A COMMITTEE SO DELEGATED, AND THE BOARD DID NOT HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO FORMALLY ADOPT THESE POLICIES BEFORE THE END OF 2010. THE BOARD HAS INITIATED THE PROCESS TO FORMALLY ADOPT THESE POLICIES IN 2011.
OFFICES & POSITIONS FOR WHICH PROCESS WAS USED
Form 990, Part VI, Questions 15A & 15B
FCHP HAS ESTABLISHED AN EXECUTIVE EVALUATION AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE (THE "COMMITTEE") OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT ESTABLISHES POLICIES AND THE COMPENSATION STRUCTURE OF CERTAIN OF FCHP'S EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. THIS COMMITTEE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSURING THAT THE TOTAL COMPENSATION PROVIDED TO THESE EXECUTIVE OFFICERS IS DETERMINED BY A FAIR AND EQUITABLE PROCESS, INFORMED BY CURRENT AND CREDIBLE MARKET PRACTICE INFORMATION, AND COMPLIANT WITH APPLICABLE LEGAL AND REGULATORY GUIDELINES. IN 2010, THE COMMITTEE CONSISTED OF THREE MEMBERS OF FCHP'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS, WHO ARE NOT EMPLOYED BY THE ORGANIZATION. FCHP'S CEO SERVED AS AN EX OFFICIO MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE WITHOUT A VOTING RIGHT. THE EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OVER WHOSE COMPENSATION THE COMMITTEE IS RESPONSIBLE ARE COMPRISED OF THE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER ("CEO"), DIVISION PRESIDENTS, AND THE EXECUTIVE AND SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT POSITIONS THAT REPORT DIRECTLY TO THE CEO ("EXECUTIVE GROUP"). IN 2010, TO DETERMINE THE COMPENSATION STRUCTURE OF THE EXECUTIVE GROUP, THE COMMITTEE RELIED ON A WRITTEN COMPENSATION SURVEY PRODUCED BY AN INDEPENDENT CONSULTING FIRM THAT ASSESSES EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. THE COMMITTEE MET TO REVIEW THE COMPENSATION STRUCTURE OF THE EXECUTIVE GROUP AND REVIEWED THE COMPENSATION SURVEY PREPARED BY THE INDEPENDENT CONSULTING FIRM. THE COMMITTEE THEN VOTED TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE EXECUTIVE GROUP (OTHER THAN THE CEO). FOR THE CEO'S COMPENSATION, THE COMMITTEE (MEETING WITHOUT THE CEO) RECOMMENDED A COMPENSATION STRUCTURE THAT WAS PRESENTED TO FCHP'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (WITHOUT THE CEO PRESENT), VOTED TO APPROVE THE COMMITTEE'S RECOMMENDATION. ALL THESE DELIBERATIONS WERE CONTEMPORANEOUSLY DOCUMENTED IN THE MINUTES OF THE COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THIS PROCESS WAS USED TO ESTABLISH THE COMPENSATION FOR THE EXECUTIVE GROUP IN 2010. THIS PROCESS WAS NOT USED TO ESTABLISH COMPENSATION FOR THE "KEY EMPLOYEES" LISTED IN SCHEDULE J.
