is matter of public record, we can provide it to the candidates if we do not
get the salary range motion approved by the PNB. The PNB may need to discuss
the ED Salary range in executive session sometime in the future.

this Cmte. and sent to the Foundation's National Office with a request to send
to HR (and perhaps corporate counsel) for review.
C. General Counsel Search: T Rosenberg believes that we must send out
another RFP for corporate counsel; will do more research as soon as possible,
bring back to the Cmte., update and post.
VI. New business: T Allen moved that the Personnel Cmte. amend John Cromshow's
previous motion, to read, "The Personnel Cmte. recommends to the PNB that the
PNB in-person meeting be held in Houston, TX from Nov. 8 through 11, 2013."
Passed without objection.
