“Franciscan Properties, Inc. has two separate conflict of interest procedures; one that relates to Board members and another that relates to non-board member employees. Both groups are required on an annual basis to complete, sign and file an annual disclosure statement detailing existing or potential conflicts of interests. For Board members, the review of conflicts or potential conflicts occurs at the Board or committee level. After disclosure of the Board Member's or Committee Member's actual or potential conflict, the following procedures for addressing the conflict of interest will be adhered to by each Board and all Committees with Board delegated powers, without exception: 1. The interested Director or Committee member shall leave the Board or Committee meeting while the conflict of interest issue is discussed. 2. The remaining Board or Committee Members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. 3. If a conflict of interest is deemed to exist: a. The Chairperson of the Board or Committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested individual or committee to investigate the proposed transaction or arrangement. b. The Board or Committee shall determine whether the BayCare entity can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from an individual or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. c. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably available, the Board or Committee shall determine whether the transaction or arrangement is in the BayCare entity's best interest, and whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to BayCare. An interested Director or Committee Member shall not vote, participate in, influence or attempt to influence any determination or proceedings. The Director or Committee Member may, however, respond to questions posed by the Board or Committee regarding the contract or transaction. Any such contract or transaction must be authorized by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Directors or Committee Members entitled to vote at a meeting at which a quorum was present. Any interested Director or Committee Member may not be counted in determining the existence of a quorum. For employees, the review of conflicts of interest or potential conflicts goes to the Conflict of Interest Determination Committee. This committee consists of BayCare Chief Compliance Officer, the Corporate Responsibility Officers, and the BayCare Vice President of Team Resources. This committee shall determine if an actual conflict exists and any action required to address the conflict of interest situation.”

“Part VI, Lines 15a & 15b - Process used for Compensation Review and Approval The filing organization does not directly compensate some of its top management employees; rather compensation is paid by a related organization that also follows the compensation policy of the Compensation Committee. The independent Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee's purpose is to provide oversight for the organization's executive compensation program, review and approve compensation and benefits for all "disqualified persons" subject to the Intermediate Sanctions regulations issued under Section 4958 of the Internal Revenue Code (including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Financial Officer, other system and entity executives, and other disqualified persons as defined in the Intermediate Sanctions regulations (i.e., voting members of the governing body, family members, former officers)), and establish the compensation philosophy for all other executives. This committee engages nationally recognized compensation consultants to assist them in review of executive compensation. The compensation consultants provide a review of each vice president and above in the system to determine if that employee's compensation is reasonable when compared against market standards. The data reviewed comes from compensation studies that include comparable compensation for similarly qualified persons in functionally comparable positions at similarly situated organizations. The organization keeps contemporaneous minutes of the compensation committees meetings and decisions. External consultants review compensation every other year. The last review occurring in 2015, but the compensation committee regularly monitors compensation and all other procedures are followed annually.”
