Bonus starting packages

[Storminator]

I'm about to start up a new game. I had planned on giving each player a starting bonus from this list:

2nd level
+1 ECl race
Better point buy
one item up to 3000 gp

No two players can choose the same bonus, so they all get used. But I now have a 5th player joining. What is a good equivalent to that list? Also, how many point buy points should I grant? 4? 6? other?

+1 feat?

Useful, Non-Combat Special Ability.

Depends on your setting, but how about some social bonus? Being well conected, owed favors, somethign like that?

Or, incorporate action points and let that player roll a d8 instead of a d6.
