P." 13TH CHECK PROGRAM
:f 9.1 serve. The Board of Trustees will establish a reserve, (the "1,1 1 Ch
Reserve"),to be funded as provided in Section 9.2, for distribution pursuant to Section 9.3.
The Board shall utilize this reserve fund to provide a mechanism to accumulate money for
a future enhanced benefit in the form of a cost of living allowance and may utilize the fund
to provide some short term relief from inflation to retirees by means of a 13th check.
t
9.2 Funding, The Board will credit the 13th Check Reserve with the following
amounts:
8
(a) One half of the excess,if any,of the rate of return on the actuarial value of Fund
assets (excluding any unrealized appreciation) over 7.5%, multiplied by the actuarial
present value of benefits being paid to Members and Beneficiaries,both as reported in the
Plan's annual actuarial valuation, where the rate of return is determined by dividing the
r Fund's interest earnings for the Plan Year by an amount equal to one half of the following `
sum: the Fund's value as of the first day of the Plan Year, plus the Fund's value as of the
last day of the Plan Year, less the Fund's interest earnings for the Plan Year; and
(b) All Member contributions to the 13th Check Reserve.
9.3 Distribution. As soon as administratively practicable after the close of each Plan
t Year, and subject to the provisions of Article XIV, the Board may distribute any balance in
the 13th Check Reserve which is in excess of that required to maintain the actuarial
soundness of the Plan(the"Distributable Amount")to those persons then receiving benefits
under the Plan("Recipients"). The Distributable Amount will be distributed to Recipients
in single lump sums and in the amounts determined under the following formula:
Distributable Amount x (RMB divided by 100) YR
,
(TMB divided by 100) + TYR
where RMB represents a Recipient's monthly benefit under the Plan; TMB represents the
total of all Recipients' monthly benefits; YR represents the number of full or partial years
from the date of the recipient's benefit commencement(or in case of a Retiree Death Benefit,
from the date on which the preceding Retirement, Termination, or Disability Benefit
commenced); and TYR represents the total of all such years for all Recipients.
