This excerpt taken from the DVN DEF 14A filed Apr 28, 2008. Role of the
Independent Compensation Consultant
In 2007, the Committee retained the services of an independent
compensation consulting firm, Hewitt Associates (the
Compensation Consultant), to evaluate the
competitiveness of our programs and assist with executive
compensation program design. The Committee did not direct Hewitt
to perform the above services in any particular manner or under
any particular method. All of the decisions with respect to the
Companys executive compensation were made by the Committee
alone. The Committee has the final authority to hire and
terminate the Compensation Consultant, and the Committee
evaluates the Compensation Consultant annually. The
Companys Board has adopted a policy that prohibits the
Compensation Consultant from providing any service to the
Company, or its management, other than the services provided to
the Committee.
