FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY OUR Conflict of Interest Policy requires all covered persons to annually review the policy and then complete, sign and return the Conflicts of Interest Survey and Attestation to the Compliance Office. The policy requires an on-going disclosure obligation in the event a conflict arises during the year. The following is our process to regularly and consistently monitor and enforce the policy: Compliance identifies all covered persons who must complete the Survey and Attestation. Compliance verifies that the Survey and Attestation is distributed to these persons. Compliance verifies that these persons return a fully completed and signed Survey and Attestation. Compliance reviews each completed and signed Survey and Attestation to identify all conflicts listed in the document. All conflicts, potential conflicts and incidences of non-compliance are referred to the Chief Compliance Officer. The CCO takes appropriate action to completely resolve all identified conflicts and incidences of non-compliance.

THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE CONSISTS OF FIVE TRUSTEES AS WELL AS THE CEO IN AN ADVISORY ROLE AND NOT A VOTING MEMBER. FURTHER IN COMMITTEE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE COMPENSATION FOR THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, THE CEO WILL RECUSE HIM/HERSELF FROM THAT PROCESS AND IS A NON-VOTING COMMITTEE MEMBER FOR DISCUSSIONS ON ALL OTHER OFFICERS. THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY EMPOWERS THE COMMITTEE TO OVERSEE THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROCESS AND ADMINISTER THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM ON BEHALF OF THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF WELLSTAR; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES EVALUATES AND APPROVES THE COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER. THE PHILOSOPHY REQUIRES ANNUAL DISCLOSURE OF THE COMMITTEE'S ACTIONS AND DECISIONS TO THE FULL BOARD, WHICH IT HAS DONE. THE COMMITTEE IS GUIDED BY THE BOARD-APPROVED PHILOSOPHY. OVERALL, THE PHILOSOPHY IS INTENDED TO REWARD FOR ORGANIZATIONAL AND INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE. BASE COMPENSATION IS TARGETED AT THE MEDIAN BASE COMPENSATION PAID TO SIMILAR POSITIONS AT SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS (THE MARKET).

WHEN PERFORMANCE IS AT A PREDETERMINED TARGETED LEVEL, THE TOTAL COMPENSATION, BOTH BASE AND VARIABLE, IS INTENDED TO BE AT OR AROUND THE 75TH% OF COMPENSATION PAID TO SIMILAR POSITIONS AT SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS. WELLSTAR'S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY DEFINES THE MARKET AS BEING COMPRISED OF COMPARABLE NOT-FOR-PROFIT HEALTH CARE DELIVERY SYSTEMS, I.E., NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS SIMILAR IN COMPLEXITY AND SCALE TO WELLSTAR. TO ASSIST THE COMMITTEE IN FULFILLING ITS DUTIES, THE COMMITTEE ENGAGED SULLIVAN COTTER TO PROVIDE MARKET COMPENSATION DATA TO COMPARE TO THE WELLSTAR POSITIONS WHOSE COMPENSATION THE COMMITTEE OVERSEES.
