Due to operational considerations, our company will no longer be closing our offices on certain holidays. Therefore, we are allowing non-exempt employees to take an alternate day off in the week of the holiday or they will receive holiday benefit pay as well as wages for the hours worked on the holiday. Since the exempt managers will be working holidays as well, it only seems fair that they be given additional holiday benefit pay as well as their normal salary since this is a benefit that we are now in essence taking away. Any thoughts?

How many exempt employees need to be there on the holiday? Can you give them a day off during the same week -- or even two days for the extra holiday that they worked.

I would do that rather than more pay. And you could have that policy for the nonexempt also. Pay for the day plus an extra paid day off.
