UNDER THIS PROCEDURE, THE CO-CHAIRS OF THE ILSI BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPOINTS A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE COMPOSED OF THREE INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ANNUALLY REVIEWS THE COMPENSATION OF THE ILSI EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THE REVIEW INCLUDES CONSIDERATION OF COMPARABILITY DATA. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ESTABLISHES A RANGE OF COMPENSATION THAT THE COMMITTEE DEEMS REASONABLE. THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE RECORDS ITS DECISION IN CONTEMPORANEOUS WRITTEN MINUTES. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE IRS SAFE HARBOR REGULATION, WITH REGARD TO EXCESS BENEFITS, THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE IS ONLY REQUIRED TO PERFORM THE COMPENSATION REVIEW DESCRIBED ABOVE WITH REGARD TO COMPENSATION OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. HOWEVER, THE COMMITTEE HAS THE DISCRETION TO PERFORM SUCH A REVIEW WITH REGARD TO ANY ILSI EMPLOYEE AS IT DETERMINES APPROPRIATE. IF THE COMPENSATION OF AN ILSI EMPLOYEE, OTHER THAN THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, IS NOT DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROCEDURE DESCRIBED ABOVE, HIS/HER COMPENSATION IS SET BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IN ACCORDANCE WITH HIGH-TO-LOW RANGES ESTABLISHED BY THE DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES IN COOPERATION WITH THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THE COMPENSATION REVIEW FOR THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, AND ANY OTHER ILSI EMPLOYEE SUBJECTED TO NOMINATIONS AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE REVIEW, DOES INCLUDE A REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY INDEPENDENT PERSONS, COMPARABILITY DATA, AND CONTEMPORANEOUS SUBSTANTIATION OF THE DELIBERATION AND DECISION. COMPENSATION OF EMPLOYEES THAT IS NOT SUBJECT TO SUCH A REVIEW IS ESTABLISHED BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, WHO IS INDEPENDENT OF THE EMPLOYEES, AND IT IS NORMALLY BASED ON AN INFORMAL REVIEW OF COMPARABLE COMPENSATION IN NONPROFIT CORPORATIONS OF THE SAME SIZE IN THE WASHINGTON, DC AREA. THE PROCESS BY WHICH COMPENSATION IS SET IS DOCUMENTED IN WRITING, BUT THIS IS NOT DONE IN THE SAME FORMAL MANNER AS REVIEW BY THE NOMINATIONS AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE.
