3 Legislative Changes Trend of Defined Contribution Plans- business failures drove legal changes the IRS audited 500 non-profit retirement plans. 100% of them were found to be out of compliance – IRS proposed new regulations. Adopted in 2006; effective January 1, 2009 Juniata now has legal and fiduciary responsibility for managing and monitoring the plan. Failure to comply could lead to significant penalties and/or immediate taxation of all benefits.

4 Juniatas Objectives Identify changes necessary to meet the new fiduciary standards.

7 Investment Policy Statement Our Investment Policy Statement (IPS) provides the general investment goals and objectives for the Plan. Specific information in the document includes a description of the roles of all the service providers, the types of investments available, appropriate investment benchmarks to evaluate performance and the criteria used to either put a manager on a Watch List or terminate and replace them. A formal review of all investment managers and their performance is conducted at least semi-annually.

8 Plan Audit Results Our plan was independently audited this year by ParenteBeard and we proved to be in good shape. Upon their advice/consultation, Human Resources will be coordinating having all employees complete a new retirement contribution election form. By having all new election forms, this will ensure we are making the most up-to-date, accurate employee contributions to the plan and comply with industry Best Practices.
