“The organization does not directly pay these individuals, however as compensation is part of the management fees, the organization is able to rely on the reasonableness due to southern california presbyterian homes' policy below: a. Compensation for the company's ceo is based on comparability data received from an independent consultant who is familiar with the compensation practices of similar companies in the nonprofit senior housing and services industry. On an annual basis, the executive committee of the board of directors (in its capacity as compensation committee) reviews and discusses the compensation data with the ceo and others as deemed necessary. An updated compensation survey was conducted in 2014. This information was used for setting modest salary increases for the ceo and senior management, after giving due consideration to the incentive compensation plan. Based on those discussions, and pursuant to california law, the executive committee makes a recommendation for the ceo base compensation to the full board. B. Base compensation for the company's senior management is determined by a salary survey conducted by an independent consultant with expertise in the compensation practices of similar companies in the nonprofit senior housing and services industry. An updated compensation survey was conducted in 2014. This information was used for setting modest salary increases for the ceo and senior management, after giving due consideration to the incentive compensation plan.

Five of eight members of the executive committee and twelve of sixteen voting members of the board members of the board, are independent persons. Contemporaneous summary minutes of all executive committee meetings are maintained. In addition, based on input from independent consultants, the executive committee, in consultation with the ceo, establishes criteria to be met for purposes of any incentive compensation that might be paid out.
