“The compensation committee is comprised of three members of the board of directors who determine and approve the officers' salaries when it is proposed by the ceo. The ceo's compensation increases are proposed by the compensation committee, which is headed by the board's chairman. Compensation is determined through analysis of similar positions and non-profits. The compensation committee meets once a year to consider merit increases. This process was last undertaken in 2023 and documented in the board minutes.”
