Funding Agreements Issued to Fund Pension Plans Sample Clauses

Funding Agreements Issued to Fund Pension Plans. Generally, funding agreements that are used to fund pension plans have been modeled after guaranteed interest contracts. The majority of such funding agreements fund defined contribution plans. See Guaranteed Interest Contract Outline for additional information. [In our view funding agreements funded solely by employee or individual contributions are subject to the provisions of the Insurance Law applicable to individual annuities, to the extent practicable, including §§ 3219 and 4223.] 1. Entire Contract Provision. 2. Grace Period Provision (for funding agreements with two or more deposits). 3. Plan Benefit Rule -- §40.4(a) of Regulation 139 – Any contract, including a funding agreement, issued in connection with a defined contribution plan which provides the contract holder with the right to withdraw from the contract the amounts required to pay lump sum benefits of the participant’s individual account balance as they arise in accordance with the provisions of the plan upon bona fide termination of employment must provide for such withdrawals to be made on a basis pursuant to which neither the amount withdrawn from the contract nor the amount of the remaining principal balance of the accumulation fund following such withdrawal is adjusted to reflect changes in interest rates or asset values since the receipt of funds. (a) Funding agreements do not need to be benefit responsive. However, if the funding agreement is benefit responsive, it must comply with this §40.4(a) of Regulation 139. (b) The lump sum payment cannot be subject to a market value adjustment. (c) No special interest rate adjustment may result from such withdrawals. 4. Allocated Share of Benefit Payments -- §40.4(c) – In the event that there is more than one funding vehicle or cash is available under a defined contribution plan, a funding agreement need not provide for withdrawals (in accordance with the plan benefit rule) in an amount in excess of the contract’s allocated share of benefit payments as determined pursuant to the agreement of the insurance company and funding agreement holder. (a) This provision operates much like a coordination of benefits provision. If the contract is silent as to its allocable share, benefits will be paid as if it is the only funding vehicle. (b) We have approved last-in, first-out provisions; first-in, first-out provisions; pro-rata provisions; buffer fund provisions and combination provisions.
