The board of directors of the organization has adopted an executive compensation philosophy to enable FSCSC to recruit, retain, develop and motivate capable and committed executive leaders essential to sustaining its mission and achieving its vision and organizational goals. The executive compensation committee monitors the compensation strategy to reflect changes in market conditions and executive needs. This strategy and the reward elements serve as a "road map" for the on-going administration of the compensation programs. The Board has adopted a philosophy of viewing executive compensation in its totality, considering all reward elements - both extrinsic and intrinsic, provided to executives. Annually, the executive compensation committee makes the recommendation on the compensation for the president and chief executive officer with final approval from the sponsor as recommended by the FSCSC board of directors. The recommendation is based, in part, on the review of the most current market data available and compensation strategy discussion. FSCSC's president and chief executive officer makes recommendations to the executive compensation committee for the establishment of salary ranges and salaries for the chief financial officer and chief operating officer of the organization. The executive compensation committee of the board of directors has adopted a practice of having a third-party review of total remuneration for executive staff and obtains a letter of reasonableness every two to three years. This third party review includes: 1. Obtain and analyze comparable compensation data for similar persons in functionally comparable positions in similar organizations; 2. Contemporaneous documentation and record keeping with respect to deliberations and decisions regarding the compensation arrangements is maintained; 3. The process of obtaining comparable compensation data was last performed in March 2025, and the executive Compensation Committee reviewed the third party data regarding Executive Compensation for the CEO, in light of the current year trends.”
