That aggreement only refers in a very general way to ' the administratove services to be provided by RC and the fees to be paid for . r r3: those services, and it does not provide an accurate portrayal of our current relationship. To illustrate, the ICMA Retirement Trust currently consists of $2.4 billion in total assets and that figure represents the pooled monies of approximately 145,000 local government employees. This is a significant increase over the ' . $459,000 managed by RC for 285 participants in 1972. With the growth of the Retirement Trust the services RC provides for administration of your deferred ;.` compensation plan have also grown. The administrative services we now provide 1 inc ude: 'r * Educating and enrolling participants; * Maintaining employer accounts and employee subaccounts, and associated records; ¢; , * Crediting employer contributions to employee accounts; Reporting investment activity and account information to the employers and employees on a quarterly basis; J * Providing information about various features of deferred compensation plans on a regular basis; Paying benefits and handling related tax reporting. Consequently, the "Trust Agreement" we initially entered into does not describe the services RC provides in sufficient detail . { As a result we have prepared a new Administrative Services Agreement,, two copies of w;ich have been signed by RC and enclosed. We believe the �r D ICMA-RC Services, Inc. Member NASD and SIPC,is a wholly owned broker-dealer subsidiary of the ICMA Retirement Corporation QD r s hJ^ � J f • PS i� ; t� r id� • ttst � } �, �•V �k��l�s�''1 .• t• � ��{� �j,4(;� i���r��'�b5r���'wt`�`r:�.P,�:�r,� �`�t�r�"'�4�t��+`�i. 1 � . ��. a .A t' ? 1. 4 i Y:..1F F r tt7 .., SY1;; F `�)i 'r'Sit; `JtY rlfi}I `t 7 i , 3t S"� "T•`; '4 't`w A. Administrative Services Agreement provides a more accurate and up-to-date description of the existing relationship between you and RC. We propose that the City of Jefferson and RC enter into the Administrative Services Agreement to replace the "Trust Agreement with the ICHA Retirement Corporation". Upon your acceptance of the Administrative Services Agreement, that substitution will occur. - The Administrative Services Agreement is not intended to affect in any way the investments of youi deferred compensation plan or the benefits payable under the plan. Nor is it intended to change in any way the services actually provided by RC, or the fees actually charged by RC with respect to the administration of the plan. Please sign each of the enclosed copies of the Agreement. Return one copy to RC using the enclosed return envelope, and keep one copy for your records. If we do not hear from you, and RC does not receive a signed Agreement within 90 calendar days of your receipt of this letter, and the Trust continues to receive plan contributions, RC will interpret those actions as acceptance of the terms of the Agreement after the expiration of the 90-day period. If you have any questions regarding the Administrative Services Agreement, please call Chris Baker of our Client Services division at (202) 362-8076, or call my Legal Assistant, Jan Feldman, at (202)962-4677.
