401(k) Restoration & Retirement Savings Taxation Timing Compensation Management Other Planning Opportunities WHAT WE’LL COVER TODAY PRIMARY USES OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION

401(k) Restoration & Retirement Savings PRIMARY USES: PRIMARY USES OF NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

More than 8 in 10 participants say NQDC plans are important in reaching their retirement goals Trends in Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Among Plan Sponsors and Participants, the Principal Financial Group.

Qualified plans, 403(b) plans and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) have limits on the amounts that can be contributed to them. Also, qualified plans and 403(b) plans are subject to coverage and non-discrimination testing that may limit both employee and employer contributions to the plans. NQDC can help! 401(k) Restoration & Retirement Savings

Employer contributions can “restore” benefits that are limited under a qualified retirement plan Allows eligible key employees to defer into an NQDC plan Any amount restricted by qualified plan non-discrimination testing Up to the maximum qualified plan amount Company contributions follow deferrals 401(k) restoration

Retirement Savings Going beyond 401(k) restoration Addressing the retirement gap higher earners face Deferral limits can be raised, or more commonly, eliminated May or may not include company matching amounts and/or discretionary profit share contributions Employer has the ability to choose which key employees to reward and how much. ▪Plan design may allow ability to create tiers of the Top Hat Group with different deferral limits, employer contributions and vesting schedules

Taxation Timing PRIMARY USES: PRIMARY USES OF NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

NQDC offers participants considerable flexibility and control over distributions to meet their objectives but also provides the distribution flexibility to control when they take receipt of the money Taxation Timing Of those participants planning to increase their annual contribution, 67% identified ‘helping manage their current income tax‘ as a factor in the decision Eligible key employees may use NQDC plans to choose when they take distributions including the option to take installments. They can also delay distributions beyond the originally scheduled timing. * 2014 Trends in Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Among Plan Sponsors and Participants, the Principal Financial Group.

Participants have the ability to coordinate their NQDC distributions with distributions from Social Security or other pre-tax retirement plans such as a 401(k) plan. ▪Often participants will fund their retirement with NQDC distributions first, then receive qualified plan distributions later. Participants can defer distributions while they’re working and their marginal tax rates are potentially high and then take the distribution during retirement when their effective tax rate may be lower. Income tax payable in the year money is actually received by the key employee. Taxation Timing - continued

Compensation Management PRIMARY USES: PRIMARY USES OF NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

NQDC plans can provide employers with a program to help recruit, retain, reward and/or provide incentives for the people on whom the success of your business depends. Use performance-based contribution and performance-based vesting to influence the behavior you want from key performers Customize contribution and vesting schedules to use as performance rewards for key employees Compensation Management

Use discretionary employer contributions based on the particular needs of your organization Compensation Management

Other Planning Opportunities PRIMARY USES: PRIMARY USES OF NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

NQDC plans can be valuable to an organization planning for the future. NQDC plans have much flexibility and offer many options: Using NQDC to create phantom shares and provide an ownership experience Using NQDC to create opportunities for executives to be potential future owners Other Planning Opportunities

Ownership Experience Employers can customize contribution and vesting schedules measured by phantom stock values – similar to “compensation management” The key employee shares in both increases and decreases in the valuation of the company, which creates an ownership experience without the dilution that comes from actual equity grants VALUEVESTING Declared by board annually 20% per year based on meeting goals COMPANYFORMULA Contributes phantom stock shares to participating executives # of phantom shares determined by annual gross profit

Closely held corporation funds an NQDC plan account for current key employees who are possible future owners, setting an account to vest and distribute on a “change in control” of the company This not only provides incentives and rewards to key employees, it also retains options for the current owner Insider Transition

Example Insider Transition Sale of BusinessChange of ControlVesting Sale to insidersYES Account vests and distributes to key employees and is used to execute purchase Sale to outsidersYES Account vests and distributes to key employees as reward for years of service NO Optional triggering event can be retirement

Key benefits of NQDC However you choose to design your plan, some key benefits are universal. An NQDC plan:  Allows participants the opportunity to defer compensation in excess of qualified retirement plan limits on a pre-tax basis (up to 100 percent deferral depending on plan design)  Can allow organizations to make discretionary contributions to retain and motivate key employees — including incentive-based contributions.  Restores contributions/benefits limited by IRS restrictions in retirement plans  Can give participants more flexibility in tax planning with flexible distribution options

Key benefits of NQDC - continued  Offers flexible distribution options including ability to take prior to age 59½  Allows participants to design an individualized investment strategy  Is not subject to contribution and participation limits  Has simplified government reporting and disclosure rules, or none at all, depending on plan design
