THE CEO SUBMITS A WRITTEN SELF-EVALUATION TO THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS REPORTING PROGRESS AGAINST THE INSTITUTIONAL, MANAGEMENT AND INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES OF THE PREVIOUS YEAR. CONCURRENTLY, THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE SOLICITS VIEWS ON THE CEO'S PERFORMANCE FROM THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

THE FULL BOARD AGREES UPON THE DELIVERY OF THE PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD AND THE CHAIR OF THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE PRESENT THE ASSESSMENT TO THE CEO. HIAS'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION POLICY IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A REASONABLE AND COMPETITIVE PACKAGE OF SALARY AND BENEFITS, CONSISTENT WITH MARKET BASED COMPENSATION PRACTICES AND THE ORGANIZATIONS' FINANCIAL RESOURCES.

THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING THE FINAL COMPENSATION DETERMINATION BASED ON THE PERFORMANCE REVIEW OF ITS CEO, THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE AND THE MARKET ANALYSIS. THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD DOCUMENT THE BOARD'S DECISION AND ITS BASIS FOR THE REASONABLENESS OF THE COMPENSATION. THE LAST COMPENSATION REVIEW TOOK PLACE IN MARCH 2023. FOR KEY EMPLOYEES AND OFFICERS, THE COMPENSATION REVIEWS ARE DONE INTERNALLY BY MANAGEMENT TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THE CURRENT MARKET SITUATION. |
