“The memorial health system board of directors has appointed a leadership compensation committee made up of independent members of the board of directors and has delegated to it the responsibility of administering, overseeing and approving all forms of compensation and benefits provided to executive leadership, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer. The board has adopted a leadership compensation philosophy statement describing the role and responsibilities of the committee. This philosophy expressly states the committee's intent, on behalf of the corporation, to take all the steps necessary to qualify for the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness under the federal income tax law intermediate sanctions rules. The committee analyzes every element of compensation (including current, incentive and deferred compensation) and benefits (including qualified and non-qualified benefits). The committee conducts its review and approval process at least annually, and approves compensation and benefits only to the extent that the committee has concluded that the compensation and benefits constitute no more than reasonable compensation for each executive. In connection with the most recent review and approval process, the committee received professional advice from an independent consultant and outside legal counsel. The committee consists entirely of disinterested members of the board or disinterested committee members who under state corporate law may serve on such a committee. The committee works with its compensation consultant to prepare and review in advance comprehensive data showing the compensation provided by similarly situated organizations for functionally similar positions. The committee also prepares a timely and thorough written record of its procedural criteria necessary to qualify for the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness under the federal income tax law intermediate sanctions rules.”
