Description of Process to Monitor Transactions for Conflicts of Interest Form 990, Part VI, Question 12c All officers, governors and key employees are required annually to sign a pledge of duty and complete a comprehensive conflicts of interest disclosure form covering a number of areas of potential conflict. A disclosure report is then compiled from the returned information and distributed to the entire Board for discussion at its first meeting of the year. A plan of remediation (i.e., recusal from vote and/or discussion, etc) for any significant potential conflict is established at that time and recorded. During the year, at the start of each meeting, the Board chair (the president) asks the members to verbally disclose any new potential conflicts of interest they may have and those related to the meeting agenda. Appropriate action is then taken, if needed. A Conflicts of Interest Review Committee has been established to address any unresolved potential conflicts of interest of major significance.

Executive Compensation The College of American Pathologists (CAP) desires to ensure that its executive compensation program is competitive, fair, and equitable, as well as compliant with regulatory guidelines and representative of market best practices. The organization will consider national peer groups of organizations comparable to CAP in size (i.e. revenues) and complexity to determine the market values for each of its executive positions. These peer groups vary by position and required skill sets. CAP has established a target position for each of the following componenets of its executive total compensation program: base salaries, total cash compensation, total direct compensation, qualified benefits, supplemental benefits and perquisites, and severance. The organization will exercise the utmost care in ensuring that all elements of each executive's compensation is properly reported as required on Internal Revenue Service Forms W-2, 941, and 990.
