ORGANIZATION COMPENSATION REVIEW & APPROVAL PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THE FOUNDATION DO NOT RECEIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS FROM THE FOUNDATION. OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF GROUP HEALTH COOPERATIVE RECEIVE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS FROM GROUP HEALTH COOPERATIVE (GHC). GHC IS GOVERNED BY AN INDEPENDENT BOARD OF TRUSTEES ("THE BOARD"), COMPRISED OF 11 CONSUMERS ELECTED BY GHC'S VOTING MEMBERS. THE BOARD HAS DELEGATED TO THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD (THE "COMMITTEE") THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR NEGOTIATING AND APPROVING THE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT AND COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR THE GHC PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER ("CEO"); APPROVING THE EXECUTIVE TOTAL COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY THAT DRIVES ALL EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION DECISIONS; AND APPROVING COMPENSATION FOR THE EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENTS AND VICE PRESIDENTS OF GHC (EXCEPT FOR COMPENSATION ESTABLISHED IN THE INITIAL WRITTEN CONTRACTS OFFERED TO CANDIDATES FOR VICE PRESIDENT POSITIONS WHO ARE NOT THEN EMPLOYED BY GHC AND WHO HAVE NOT BEEN DETERMINED TO BE A "DISQUALIFIED PERSON" UNDER APPLICABLE IRS REGULATIONS, AS TO WHOM THE BOARD HAS DELEGATED SUCH AUTHORITY TO THE CEO). THE FIVE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE ARE THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, THE VICE CHAIR, AND THREE ADDITIONAL TRUSTEES SELECTED BY THE CHAIR. AS ADOPTED BY THE COMMITTEE, THE EXECUTIVE TOTAL COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY PROVIDES THAT THE GHC WILL MAINTAIN AN EXECUTIVE TOTAL COMPENSATION PROGRAM DESIGNED TO FACILITATE THE ACHIEVEMENT OF ITS CHARITABLE MISSION, VALUES AND ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION IS SET AT A LEVEL THAT ENABLES THE ORGANIZATION TO ATTRACT, RETAIN, MOTIVATE AND REWARD THE HIGHEST CALIBER EXECUTIVES AT A COST THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH OUR CHARITABLE MISSION. BASED UPON THESE PRINCIPLES, THE PHILOSOPHY CONFIRMS THAT COMPENSATION WILL BE COMPARED TO COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS (HMOS AND MANAGED CARE, HEALTH CARE, AND HEALTH INSURANCE ORGANIZATIONS), AND THAT BASE SALARY RANGES WILL BE BUILT AROUND 50TH PERCENTILE MARKET BASE PAY LEVELS, ANNUAL AND LONG-TERM INCENTIVES WILL BE TARGETED AT THE 50TH PERCENTILE (WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO EARN ABOVE THAT LEVEL BASED ON PERFORMANCE), AND BENEFITS AND PERQUISITES WILL BE ESTABLISHED CONSISTENT WITH MARKET PRACTICES. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF EXECUTIVES' TOTAL COMPENSATION IS CONTINGENT ON INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE. CONSISTENT WITH GHC'S PHILOSOPHY, THE COMMITTEE REVIEWS AND APPROVES THE ANNUAL PERFORMANCE GOALS AND CRITERIA TO BE USED IN DETERMINING SALARY INCREASES AND INCENTIVE COMPENSATION CRITERIA FOR THE GHC CEO, EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENTS AND VICE PRESIDENTS (WHICH GROUP INCLUDES ALL GHC KEY EMPLOYEES AND GHC OFFICERS, EXCLUDING THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD AND THE VICE CHAIR, WHO ARE NOT EMPLOYED BY GHC). THE COMMITTEE ALSO HIRES A QUALIFIED INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT (AN INDEPENDENT EXPERT) TO REVIEW, ANALYZE AND PROVIDE BENCHMARKING DATA FOR THE TOTAL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS PACKAGES OF THE CEO, EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENTS AND VICE PRESIDENTS. APPROPRIATE COMPARABILITY DATA IS OBTAINED FROM THE INDEPENDENT EXPERTS, I.E., COMPENSATION PAID BY SIMILARLY SITUATED ORGANIZATIONS (BOTH TAXABLE AND TAX-EXEMPT, OF SIMILAR SIZE AND IN THE SAME INDUSTRY) FOR SIMILAR JOB RESPONSIBILITIES. THE COMMITTEE'S WRITTEN RECORDS AND MINUTES INCLUDE THE (1) TERMS OF THE ARRANGEMENT WITH THE DISQUALIFIED PERSON (INCLUDING THE DATE THE ARRANGEMENT WAS APPROVED); (2) A LIST OF MEMBERS PRESENT DURING THE DEBATE ON THE TRANSACTION (AND HOW THE MEMBERS VOTED WHEN IT WAS APPROVED); AND (3) A DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPARABLE DATA RELIED ON BY THE COMMITTEE. KEY DELIBERATIONS OF THE COMMITTEE ARE ALSO DOCUMENTED IN MINUTES WHICH ARE APPROVED AT THE NEXT COMMITTEE MEETING. THE COMMITTEE'S COMPENSATION DECISIONS ARE SHARED WITH THE BOARD.
