The compensation consultant will also advise and opine on benefit design, benefit options, and reasonableness of benefit amounts as elements of compensation. The compensation committee will adopt a compensation philosophy for officers and key employees guided by the consultant's information and use the compensation philosophy to approve the compensation of the ceo, approve the compensation ranges for other officers and key employees, and report its actions to the full board. The ceo, working within salary ranges approved by the compensation committee, sets the compensation of other officers and key employees. Minutes, documentation of independent consultant comparability data and recommendations are maintained as part of the record of the compensation committee.”
