IN ADDITION, ANNUALLY CTIA REQUESTS THAT EACH BOARD MEMBER DISCLOSE ANY POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO SERVING ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. WHEN CONFLICTS OR POTENTIAL CONFLICTS ARISE, THEY ARE EVALUATED BY THE GENERAL COUNSEL'S OFFICE WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF OUTSIDE LEGAL COUNSEL IF NECESSARY.

THE DECISIONS OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ARE CONTEMPORANEOUSLY SUBSTANTIATED BY THE APPROVAL OF MINUTES WITH THE TERMS OF THE CEO'S COMPENSATION BEING DETAILED IN AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT. FOR EMPLOYEES OTHER THAN THE CEO, CTIA PERFORMS AN ANNUAL MARKET ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE IF COMPENSATION IS COMPARABLE TO SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRIES.
