* How valid are "make-whole" provisions in new hire contracts?
* Is the approach to tax gross-ups changing?
* How do public companies and private equity firms differ in their approaches to compensation?

* How much of the current imbroglio is due to poor communication of just what makes up a compensation package?
* Is there a compensation model, yet, that is accepted by shareholders as fair to all parties?
