CITY OF SEBASTIAN By: Title: City Manager Attest: Accepted: ICMA RETIREMENT CORPORATION By: Title: Corporate Secretary Attest: From: Date: Re: Terrence R. Moore, City Mauager Mark C. Mason, CPA, Director of Finance Rich Samolewicz, Director of Human Resources September 28, 2000 401A Plan Currently the City enjoys a deferred compensation arrangement through an Internal Revenue Code Section 457b non-qualified plan. This arrangement was adopted via resolution in 1988 and updated in 1989 and again in 1995. Over the past eight months, Human Resources, Purchasing and Finance have met and discussed the possibility of offering au alternative deferred compensation plan, 401A, to all non-pension employees. This type of plan is termed a qualified plan, s~milar to a 401k plan and is in most respects a seN-directed retirement plan. The differences between a non-qualified plan and a qualified plan are many, however, the Chief difference is the restrictions associated with a 457b plan are removed, such as, non-portabiiity to a 401 type plan or IRA, non- flexible distribution rules .(i.e., once the distribution is set, it is set for life), and an option of contributing to more than one plan. In February, a meeting was held with CWA and Exempt employees to determine the interest in the optional plan. This was done to satisfy the CWA contract requirement that the City look into a retirement plan for CWA contract members. Following the presentation, the CWA employees elected not to participate and the exempt employees were divided, necessitating further study and additional information. A Request for Proposal was sent out and ICMA (with whom the City has a 457b plan) was chosen to present the plan for implementation. A second meeting was held for all exempt employees where all the pertinent information was presented, A vote was taken by ballot and the vote was unanimous electing to participate in the 40lA program. Qualified plans are on a group by group basis. In this case, the defined group is all exempt employees, excluding those covered by a labor agreement, with the option for Charter Officers to participate pursuit to their individual contracts. As such, the City's contribution percentage of 9% shall be Contributed to the 401A plan for all exempt employees, excluding those covered by a labor agreement, and those Charter Officers electing to participate instead of to the 45To plan. Each employee in the defined group shall not be allowed to contribute to the 401A plan due to the stringent rules associated with employee contributions, however, .they will be allowed to participate in the 457b plan of their choice with their own pre-tax dollars up to the limit ed by law. ~ 40lA plan offers a greater range of options than the much more restrictive 457b deferred compensation · plan as well as, the additional option to contribute with the employee's own funds to a 457b plan already in place.

PRUDENCE AND ETItlCAL STANDARDS The "Prudent Person Rule" shall be used in the management of the overall investment portfolio. The "Prudent Person Rule" states: "Investments shall be made with judgement and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income derived." Page 1 of 4 Vii The Director of Finance or his designee, acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence, shall not be held personally responsible for a specific security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that these deviations are reported immediately and that appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments.

Keep maturities short in a period of constantly rising interest.rates based on Treasury bill auctions or the daily Federal Funds rate. 2. Keep maturities short in a period of an inverted treasury yield curve (short-term rates are higher than the long-term rates.) Maturities should be lengthened when the treasury yield curve is normal and is expected to rema~ that way based on economic reports taken as a whole. The yield curve is normal when short-term rates are lower than long-term rates. 4. Maturities should be lengthened when interest rates are expected to fall based on economic reports taken as a whole. 5, Maturities should be staggered to provide for sequential maturities. Page 2 of 4 Investments shall be purchased with the intent of earning a favorable rate of interest and return on the City's funds for the stated maturity. The value of individual investments (such as treasury and federal agency securities) will fluctuate with market conditions and may offer opportunities for favorable gains if liquidated.

RISK AND DIVERSII~ICATiON Investments shall be diversified to control the risk of loss resulting from ovemoncentration of assets in a specific maturity, issuer, instrument, dealer, savings and loan, or bank through which these instruments are bought and sold.
