“On an annual basis the nominating and development committee of the loretto board of trustees requests all trustees to complete a conflict of interest assessment. The assessments are returned to the executive office and reviewed for any potential conflicts. Should a conflict arise, trustees are asked to recuse themselves from the deliberations and the decision making process regarding the transaction. Additionally, all employees are required to attest annually to a corporate code of conduct which address conflict of interest issues.”

“The compensation and benefits committee of the board of loretto (the committee) is responsible for reviewing and approving proposed compensation and benefit arrangements for key employees (covered persons). In reviewing the reasonableness of proposed compensation and benefit arrangements for covered persons, the committee considers a detailed description of the compensation/benefit arrangement recommended and the reasons for the recommendation, including external labor market data and comparability information for similarly situated persons at like organizations. Comparability information is obtained from independent sources (e.g.,compensation/benefit consulting firm) and form research of publically available data (e.g, wage and benefit survey data). Both external data and internal factors are taken into account by the committee as it reviews compensation and benefit recommendations. When making 2015 compensation decisions, management benchmarked competitive executive compensation levels using multiple industry compensation surveys. In addition, the compensation and benefits committee of the board approved only modest 2015 salary adjustments for existing covered persons. The committee documents decisions and the basis for decisions regarding compensation and benefit arrangements for covered persons in the form of minutes that are maintained for all meetings of the committee. Covered persons are excluded from deliberations regarding recommended compensation and benefit arrangements.”
