Pilot Questionnaire for Governmental Plans Initiative
6.
Indicate the type of plan:
Defined Contribution
Defined Benefit
Hybrid Defined Benefit
A defined contribution plan is a plan that allocates all employer and employee contributions to separate
participant accounts and the ultimate benefit a participant receives is based upon that account balance. A
defined benefit plan provides for the payment of definitely determinable benefits for employees or their
beneficiaries over a period of years, usually for life, after retirement based on a specific formula in the plan.
A hybrid plan refers to a type of defined benefit plan that has attributes of both a defined benefit and a
defined contribution plan. For purposes of this questionnaire, the term hybrid plan means a plan under
which normal and early retirement benefits are primarily based on a hypothetical account balance and
credited interest.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Department of Labor (DOL), and the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (PBGC) have issued rulings on whether a plan or system is a "governmental plan" (i.e.,
whether the plan is sponsored by an organization which may sponsor a governmental plan). These rulings
should be distinguished from a "determination letter" which is the subject of question 15. A determination
letter is available to any qualified plan, whether or not characterized as a "governmental plan" and relates
solely to whether that plan satisfies the applicable tax-qualification requirements. The following questions
relate solely to rulings on whether your Plan or System is a governmental plan.

A letter ruling issued by the IRS that it is a governmental plan under section 414(d) of the Code;

under section 4021(b) of ERISA
