“The compensation of the President and Chief Executive Officer, and of any other officers or key employees of the organization, shall be determined in accordance with this policy. Key employees covered by this policy shall be designated, from time to time, by the Board of Directors. WICT uses comparability data to determine salaries for the President and CEO and other key employees. The Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing such data during the 4th quarter of each year. All compensation arrangements subject to this policy must be approved in advance by an authorized body of the organization that is composed of individuals who do not have a conflict of interest concerning the transaction. Members of the authorized body who may have a conflict of interest shall refrain from participating in the approval of the compensation arrangement and, if they do, shall not be considered as disqualifying the body from considering the arrangement. The authorized body considering compensation arrangements under this policy will be the Executive Committee, or the Board of Directors may assume jurisdiction in the review of specific compensation arrangements at the Board's discretion. However, the Board of Directors will be the only authorized body for review of compensation arrangements involving the President and Chief Executive Officer or any other officer of the organization. At the discretion of the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee, the President and Chief Executive Officer may also be delegated the responsibility for reviewing employee compensation arrangements other than those for his/her own compensation, and, in those cases, the term authorized body, as contained herein, shall refer to the President and Chief Executive Officer. Prior to making a determination on compensation arrangements subject to this policy, the authorized body shall obtain and rely on appropriate data as to comparability. Such data will assist the authorized body in determining whether the compensation arrangement is comparable to arrangements made by other for-profit and not-for-profit organizations for individuals in similar positions. The authorized body shall adequately and timely document the basis for its determination on compensation arrangements concurrently with making that determination. The documentation of the authorized body shall include the terms of the transaction and the date of its approval, the members of the authorized body present during the debate and vote on the transaction, the comparability data obtained and relied upon, the actions of any members of the authorized body having a conflict of interest, and documentation of the basis for the determination.”
