COMPENSATION COMMITTEE


OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF


BAZI INTERNATIONAL, INC.





I.
PURPOSE





The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) is appointed to discharge the responsibilities of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Bazi International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), relating to compensation of the Board and the Company’s executive officers.





II.           MEMBERSHIP





The Committee shall consist of two or more directors, each of whom shall satisfy the definition of (a) “independent” as that term is defined from time to time by the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange (AMEX),; (b) “non-employee director” as that term is defined in Rule 16b-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and (c) “outside director” as that term is defined for the purposes of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 162(m), as amended.  Membership on the Committee is determined annually by the Board. The Committee’s chairperson (the “Chairperson”) shall be designated by the Board or, if the Board has not done so prior to any meeting of the Committee, the Committee members shall elect a Chairperson by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Committee’s members at such meeting. Each Committee member shall serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. The Board may remove any member from the Committee at any time with or without cause. Should any member of the Committee cease to satisfy the definitions referenced in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the preceding paragraph, or should any member cease to be a member of the Board, such member shall immediately resign his or her membership on the Committee without any request, notice or other action by the Board or any other person or party.





III.           COMMITTEE MEETINGS





The Committee shall meet at least once per calendar year. Additional meetings are scheduled as needed and shall be called by the Chairperson, or if none, by any Committee member. A majority of the total number of members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Minutes of a meeting of the Committee shall be recorded by the secretary of such meeting, which shall be appointed by the chairperson at each such meeting. The approval or an act by a majority of the members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall constitute the approval or an act by the Committee. The Committee may also act by unanimous written consent without a meeting.





IV.           COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY





The Company’s compensation policies with respect to the Company’s Board members and executive officers are based on the principles that compensation should, to a significant extent, be reflective of the financial performance of the Company, and that a significant portion of executive officers’ compensation should provide long-term incentives. The Committee seeks to have Board member and executive compensation set at levels that are sufficiently competitive so that the Company may attract, retain and motivate high quality Board members and executives to contribute to the Company’s success. In assessing overall compensation for Board members and executive officers, the Committee considers the Company’s performance, relative stockholder return and industry position, general industry data, awards given to the Company’s executives in past years, and the recommendations of third-party consultants.








V.           RESPONSIBILITIES AND AUTHORITY





The Committee shall:





1.           Review and approve the Company’s goals and objectives relating to Chief Executive Officer compensation, evaluate the Chief Executive Officer’s performance in light of such goals and objectives, and set the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation level, perquisites and other benefits based on this evaluation, all in keeping with the Committee’s compensation philosophy set forth in this charter. The Chief Executive Officer may not be present during deliberations or voting concerning the Chief Executive Officer's performance and compensation;





2.           In consultation with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, review and approve the compensation level, perquisites and other benefits of other executive officers of the Company, taking into account the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer and such other information as the Committee believes appropriate, and review with the Chief Executive Officer the compensation of other executive officers, all in keeping with the Committee’s compensation philosophy set forth in this charter;
