This Employee Benefit Statement Prepared for: Henry H. Hemma Employees' Retirement PlanThe Employees' Retirement Plan (ERP) is designed to provide you with a retirement income paid entirely by Big Benefits, which is complemented by RISP and Social Security. Effective July 1, 2000, the Plan was changed to a cash balance approach to provide a retirement benefit that is easier to understand and offers flexibility in the ways you can receive your benefit. Big Benefits will credit you with a contribution and interest credit based on your service and earnings.

The assumptions made in the benefit calculations are outlined in the "Important Information About Your Personal Statement of Benefits" section of this communication. You should estimate that you will need 60% to 100% of your current income during retirement. Consider the results above carefully; they might suggest the need for changes in your retirement/financial planning that will enable you to attain your goals.

We would rewrite this entire section and once again, make a chart. The worst part is that it does not show the employee what he should do to achieve his goals.
