FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 1B:
BOARD MEMBER INDEPENDENCE: IN CALENDAR YEAR 2014, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF CAROMONT HEALTH CONDUCTED A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF BEST PRACTICES REGARDING INDEPENDENCE OF BOARD MEMBERS. THIS REVIEW RESULTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A BOARD POLICY ON INDEPENDENCE OF BOARD MEMBERS. USING IRS REGULATIONS AND GUIDANCE, INDUSTRY BEST PRACTICES, GUIDANCE AND COMMENTARY APPLICABLE TO NON-PROFIT HEALTHCARE INSTITUTIONS, AND ADVICE OF COUNSEL, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED A ROBUST POLICY THAT DEFINES INDEPENDENT AND NON-INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND CLASSIFIES DIRECTORS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS AS INDEPENDENT AND NON-INDEPENDENT. USING THE IRS REPORTING REQUIREMENTS AS A MINIMUM SET OF CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING THE INDEPENDENT STATUS OF BOARD MEMBERS, THE BOARD'S POLICY GOES BEYOND THE MINIMUM CRITERIA AND DEFINES ADDITIONAL CRITERIA THAT RENDER A BOARD MEMBER NON-INDEPENDENT. ONCE DETERMINED TO HAVE A DISQUALIFYING CONDITION THAT RENDERS THE MEMBER NON-INDEPENDENT, A BOARD MEMBER WHOSE DISQUALIFYING CONDITION HAS BEEN REMEDIED MAY ONLY BE RESTORED TO INDEPENDENT STATUS FOLLOWING A SPECIFIED TIME LIMIT DEFINED IN THE POLICY. IN REPORTING THE NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS IN PART I, LINE 4 AND PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 1B, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS DETERMINED THAT IT WILL REPORT THE NUMBER DETERMINED BY ITS POLICY, RECOGNIZING THAT THIS MAY BE A STRICTER INTERPRETATION THAN THE IRS REQUIRES. IN SEATING BOARD COMMITTEES, SUCH AS THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND THE AUDIT FINANCE AND INVESTMENT COMMITTEE, THE BOARD DETERMINES A DIRECTOR'S ELIGIBILITY TO SERVE ON THOSE COMMITTEES BASED ON APPLICATION OF THE BOARD'S DEFINITION OF INDEPENDENCE.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15
THE CEO, CFO, COO AND CHIEF LEGAL OFFICER ARE COMPENSATED FOR THEIR SERVICES BY CAROMONT REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER, A SUBSIDIARY OF CAROMONT HEALTH, INC. THE COMPENSATION OF ALL CAROMONT EXECUTIVES FOR EACH YEAR IS ESTABLISHED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE CAROMONT HEALTH BOARD OF DIRECTORS, BASED ON GUIDANCE AND OPINIONS PROVIDED BY AN INDEPENDENT, THIRD-PARTY COMPENSATION CONSULTANT. PURSUANT TO THE COMMITTEE CHARTER FOR THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVES THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY, WHICH ESTABLISHES THE PARAMETERS FOR ALL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION DECISIONS. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DELEGATES ALL COMPENSATION DECISIONS FOR ALL EXECUTIVES TO THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, PROVIDED SUCH DECISIONS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY. BOARD APPROVAL MUST BE OBTAINED WHEN COMPENSATION DECISIONS DEVIATE FROM THE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY. BOARD MEMBERS WHO SERVE ON THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ARE INDEPENDENT AND FREE OF ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST. ANY COMPENSATION COMMITTEE MEMBER WHO DEVELOPS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST DURING HIS/HER TERM WITH RESPECT TO THE DISCUSSION OF ANY EXECUTIVE'S COMPENSATION LEAVES THE MEETING AND DOES NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE DISCUSSION OR DECISION-MAKING BY THE REMAINING INDEPENDENT MEMBERS OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RETAINS JURISDICTION OVER THE TOTAL COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR EXECUTIVES AND REVIEWS EXECUTIVE BENEFITS AND PERQUISITES AS WELL AS TOTAL CASH COMPENSATION. COMPENSATION FOR THE CEO IS ESTABLISHED THROUGH A PROCESS OF PERFORMANCE EVALUATION, COMPARISON WITH COMPARABLE MARKET DATA AND DETERMINATION BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF ACCEPTABLE SALARY RANGE AND PERCENTILE RANKING. ALL COMPENSATION DECISIONS FOR THE CEO ARE APPROVED BY THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, AS LONG AS THE COMPENSATION DECISIONS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY. THE PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION FOR EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT, UTILIZES COMPENSATION SURVEYS AND STUDIES. FULL COLLECTED COMPENSATION INFORMATION AND ANY COMPENSATION OPINIONS PROVIDED DURING THESE PROCESSES WILL BE KEPT WITH THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OR BOARD MINUTES, AS APPLICABLE.
