© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 2 The RCAB Pension Plan is an employer-funded “defined benefit” non-ERISA church plan started in 1963 whose assets are held by a charitable trust Approximately 8,000 participants, 60+ employers Funds held in Trust can be used only to pay: — participants’ benefits — Plan administrative expenses Additional information and financial reports are located online at RCAB Pension Plan: background and history

Proprietary and Confidential. 3 RCAB Pension Plan Long-Term Goal Goal of the Trustees is to achieve full funding for the Plan in the next 20+ years through a combination of: Plan freeze Voluntary lump sum/in-service/monthly annuity options Continued employer contributions at levels set by Trustees Investment market returns that meet targets over the next two+ decades

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 4 RCAB Pension Plan Long-Term Goal The goal of “full funding” is defined to mean settlement of all liabilities through transfer of the risk to an insurance company (“annuitization”) at full value to all participants in the Plan at that time (20+ years from now). Achievement of this goal will require, in addition to ongoing employer contributions and investment market performance at targets: Improvement in annuity purchase rates Adjustment of various actuarial assumptions to bring Plan’s liability profile more in line with insurance company requirements

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. Option: voluntary monthly in-service annuity Current employees age 55+ with vested benefits have a one-time opportunity to voluntarily elect to begin monthly annuity payments while continuing to work 1,000+ hours/year. Payments will begin in January Monthly in-service annuity payments that begin before age 65 (normal retirement date) include a reduction for early commencement, consistent with current Plan rules. Monthly in-service annuity payments also include an additional reduction to reflect the Plan’s average funded ratio for the four calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period on September 30, The average funded status for that period was 82.8%. 5

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. Option: voluntary monthly in-service annuity Monthly in-service annuity payments do not change after an employee retires, reduces hours below 1,000 per year, and/or leaves employment. Monthly annuity payments are taxable (federal and state). For married employees, joint & survivor payment is the default payment option; can elect single life annuity with spouse’s consent. Monthly in-service annuity payments will include a death benefit ($5,000-$10,000, depending on length of service). 6

She has a $6,000 annual benefit ($500 monthly benefit) if she stops working and begins payments at age 65. — If she elects to begin in-service annuity payments at age 55, her benefit would be reduced by 60% to reflect her age and the additional 10 years of payments she will receive. – $6,000 x 40% = $2,400 annual benefit ($200 monthly benefit) — In addition, in-service annuity payments would also be reduced to reflect the Plan’s funded ratio (the average funded ratio for the four calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period was 82.8%) – $2,400 x 82.8% = $1, annual benefit ($ monthly benefit)

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. Option: monthly annuity opportunity Former employees with vested benefits regardless of age will be given the one-time opportunity to voluntarily elect a monthly annuity payment Early monthly annuity payment will reflect: Reductions for commencement before age 65; and If under age 55 reduction to reflect the Plan’s average funded ratio for the four quarters calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period on September 30, 2013 which was (82.8%). 8

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 9 Option: voluntary lump sum payment Current employees age 55+ with vested pension benefits have a one-time opportunity to voluntarily elect a current lump sum distribution in lieu of future monthly benefit payments. Each lump sum payment represents: The “present value” of the monthly payments that would have been made to a former employee if he began receiving payments at age 65 and continued receiving them until his death; and An additional reduction to reflect the Plan’s average funded ratio for the four calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period on September 30, 2013 (e.g., 82.8%) No death benefit is available for employees electing a lump sum.

Proprietary and Confidential. 10 Option: voluntary lump sum payment Former employees with vested benefits regardless of age will be given the opportunity to voluntarily elect a lump sum distribution, payable January 2014, in lieu of future monthly benefit payments Each lump sum payment will represent: The “present value” of the monthly payments that would have been made to a former employee if he began receiving payments at age 65 and continued receiving them until his death; and An additional reduction to reflect the Plan’s average funded ratio for the four calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period on September 30, 2013 (e.g., 82.8%) No death benefit is available for employees electing a lump sum.

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 11 Voluntary lump sum payment calculation Calculation based on “present value” factors (posted online) and Plan’s interest rate. Factors are based on: Age (as of December 31, 2013) Actuarial assumptions about life expectancy Assumed interest rate of 6.5% Greatest “present value” assigned to individuals at age 65 to align with Plan’s “normal retirement date” Individual view of the desirability of a lump sum payment will vary depending on age, life expectancy, and decisions on investment of lump sum

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 12 Example: voluntary lump sum payment Sharon Sullivan has a $6,000 annual benefit ($500 monthly benefit) if she waits until she turns 65 to take her pension. If she elects a lump sum payment at age 55, the estimated amount of her lump sum payment would be $6,000 multiplied by a “present value” factor which takes into account her current age and the number of years payments will likely be made to her over her lifetime and expected interest returns over that payment period. $6,000 x 5.44 (PV factor for age 55) = $32,640 In addition, the lump sum would also be reduced to reflect the Plan’s funded ratio (the average funded ratio for the four calendar quarters prior to the opening of the election period was 82.8%) $32,640 x 82.8% = $27,025.92

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. 13 Option: Voluntary Lump Sum Payment Lump sum payments made as direct payments to plan participants are subject to taxes, including an automatic 20% federal tax withholding, state tax withholding, if applicable (amounts vary by state of residence) and may be subject to other taxes and/or tax penalties, including a 10% excise tax if you are under age 59 ½. Lump sum payments can generally be rolled over to the RCAB 401(k) Plan (if applicable) or to an IRA in order to defer taxes and allow for continued retirement savings. Participants electing a lump sum are strongly encouraged to roll over their payments into a tax-deferred account. Participants have the opportunity to elect a lump sum payment. No future opportunity to elect a lump sum payment will be available. Payments will be made in January 2014.

Proprietary and Confidential. 14 One-time opportunities Participants have the opportunity to elect an in-service annuity or a lump sum payment during a defined window between September 30, 2013 and November 22, No future opportunity to elect an in-service annuity or a lump sum payment from the Plan will be available. Payments will be made in January 2014.

© 2011 Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. Option: Elect not to participate – decline in-service annuity and lump sum Current employees with vested benefits remain eligible to begin taking future monthly annuity payments from the Plan upon termination of employment/reduction of hours below 1,000 per year at a date in the future, based on Plan provisions in effect at that time.
