This letter summarizes the project scope and our fee estimate for a June 30, 2008 actuarial valuation for the City's retiree healthcare plan. Retiree Healthcare Benefits The City participates in Ca1PERS providing Miscellaneous employees the 2 0/0@55 benefit, Police Safety employees the 3 % @50 benefit and Fire Safety employees the 3 % @55 benefit. The City also provides medical benefits through the CalPERS healthcare program (PEMHCA) providing eligible retirees a portion of the premium contribution for the medical plan selected by the retiree. For retirees not meeting the eligibility requirement, the City pays only the PEMHCA minimum employer contribution only. The following table summarizes the City's retiree healthcare benefits by bargaining groups: Bargaining Group Eli ibili Retiree Healthcare Benefits Management 0 Service & Disability Retirement a Same as active a No service requirement a 2006 Cap: Misc_ & Fire Mgmt - $1,000 /mo; Police Mgmt -same as Police 2-0u8-20oci fLcNJ Supervisory & a Service & Disability Retirement a Same as active Professional e 5 years service • 2007 Cap = $807 + 80% Ave. HMO Family > $807 e 2008 +: EE/City share medical cost increases 50 % /50% CEA o Service & Disability Retirement o Same as active o 5 years service a 2007 Cap = $807 + 80% Ave. HMO Family > $807 Police o Service & Disability Retirement o Same as active o No service requirement o Cap: Ave. HMO Family premium Fire o Service & Disability Retirement a Same as active o No service requirement o Cap: Ave. HMO Family ore mium As of the June 30, 2006 valuation there were approximately 272 active employees, and 212 retirees receiving healthcare benefits.

Since the City implemented GASB 45 for the 2007 /08 fiscal year, the June 30, 2006 valuation can be used for the ARC for the 2 -year period including the 2007 /08 and 2008109 fiscal years. A new valuation is required as of June 30, 2008 to determine the ARCS for the 2009 110 and 2010 /11 fiscal years. Note, however, that a new valuation must be done for the intervening year if any significant changes have occurred since the last valuation, for example, to benefit provisions, plan membership, or the basis of any long -term actuarial assumptions. The City's OPEB financial statement footnote disclosure information should be based on the last valuation completed. Estimated Fees Our fee to prepare a GASB 45 valuation as of June 30, 2008 will be approximately $14,850 with one meeting to discuss valuation results. Project Elements Estimated Fee GASB 45 Actuarial Valuation, including Results Meeting $ 13,500 CalPERS CERBT Certifications, including Final Certificated Results Outline 1,250 Two Alternative Scenarios Showing Impact of Potential Changes in City Contribution Policy 1,500 Total $ 16,250 Please note that our fee estimate assumes that: n We will bill the City at the following hourly rates: Partner $250-$300 Assistant Vice President $200-$225 Senior Actuarial Analyst $150 Actuarial Analyst $125 Administrative Support $75 ►a The City has made no material changes to its retiree healthcare plan since the last actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2006. o Participant census data will be provided completely and accurately in an Excel spreadsheet with one record per individual. ca Costs and liabilities will be provided using one funding method and one set of assumptions including a discount rate of 7.75% since the City is funding at least the full ARC with the CalPERS CERBT. m GASB 45 costs and liabilities will be presented for the plan as a whole with breakdowns for Miscellaneous and Safety employees. m We will have one meeting with the City to review preliminary valuation results and will provide a discussion outline for our meeting. a We will provide the actuarial certification, funding policy certification, and Excel valuation information spreadsheet required by CalPERS. In lieu of a formal valuation report, CalPERS will accept our results discussion outline with a certification and cover letter summarizing the valuation results. Our estimated fees include $500 to prepare the certifications and Excel spreadsheet required by CalPERS and $750 for a certified discussion outline and cover letter. 11 ! , ,.I .. "..it. `, Ir a Ni. It,-( (.:.iGlnmi.i 94402 maitr: k fax: . r, . aa,e(i:.� Deborah Cullen January 30, 2009 Page 3 39 �r We based our estimated fee on our best guess of the amount of time required for the project. This represents the likely cost of the study, but it is possible that unexpected work or complexities may arise that will require additional time. We understand the City's budgeting needs and agree not to bill more than $18,000 in fees for the June 30, 2008 actuarial valuation assuming one meeting with the City and the impact of two alternative City contribution policy scenarios unless the project scope changes. * There will be no additional charges for expenses (e.g., travel, telephone, copying, etc.). The hourly rates listed above include our costs for these items. m We will invoice the City monthly based on time incurred, subject to the above maximum fee. Please note that our fee estimate will be higher if a The City's retiree healthcare promise is more complicated than we have summarized above. o Participant data is not relatively clean and free from internal inconsistencies or is not provided in electronic format (Excel workbook) with one record per participant. e The City changes its funding policy to fund less than the Annual Required Contribution. * Results are needed for additional assumptions, funding methods, contribution policies, or alternative plan designs. a Results are needed separately for additional employee groups. o The City prefers a formal valuation report rather than a certified discussion outline for Ca1PERS or its auditors. Our fee would be approximately $2,000 for a formal report rather than $750 for a certified discussion outline and cover letter. ® The City would like us to prepare an executive summary or a draft financial statement footnote. Our estimated fees would be $1,500 for an executive summary and $1,000 for a draft financial statement footnote. Our discussion outline will include all the information needed for the City's financial statement and should be sufficient for the City's auditors. a The City requests additional meetings. We will base our fee for additional meetings on our billing rates and the time needed for the meetings and preparation. Data Requirements In order for us to begin the GASB 45 study, please provide: a Summary of plan provisions and copies of the most recent MOUs for bargained employee groups and agreements for unrepresented groups, including any changes since the June 30, 2006 actuarial valuation. m Medical, dental, vision, and life premiums for active employees and retirees. a Total pay -as- you -go costs (City's retiree healthcare contribution) for the last 2 complete fiscal years (2006/07 and 2007 /08) and an estimate for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009. o The City's OPEB financial statement footnote for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. a Plan asset information: o CaIPERS CERBT annual trust statement as of June 30, 2008. o Contributions and dates made for 2007/08. * The City's current funding policy if different from that stated in the June 30, 2006 actuarial valuation. m Active and retired participant data in electronic format (Excel workbook): w Active Data - name, employee number, gender, birth date, hire date, medical plans, CalPERS medical plan code, single /2 -party /family coverage, CalPERS pension plan (Miscellaneous, Safety), employee classification (full -time or part - time), bargaining or employee group, spouse's Deborah Cullen January 30, 2009 Page 4 �33 Y!

Include retirees and surviving spouses of retirees who have retired under Ca1PERS and participate in PEMHCA even if they are not eligible for a City contribution or have waived coverage. * The City may request a copy of its CaIPERS PEMHCA database by calling the Ca1PERS Employer Contact Center at 888 -225 -7377 or by downloading and submitting the CalPERS "GASB 45 Data Extract Request, Disclaimer, and Non - Disclosure Agreement" from the Ca1PERS website. This data extract may be helpful to the City in assembling the requested employee census information. If the City wants us to use the CaiPERS data extract for the valuation, it should (1) review the data extract to identify any retirees who did not retiree directly from the City and (2) provide the current average annual pay rate for Miscellaneous and Safety employees. In order to maintain confidentiality, do not provide Social Security numbers for the employee number. We will not accept any files that contain Social Security Numbers. We may need additional data, depending on our review of the City's benefit promise. Timing We are prepared to begin this project immediately. Normally, the valuation results meeting is set about 4 -6 weeks after receipt of the requested information. We took forward to working with you and the City. 'L � vka John E.
