We included a copy of her enrollment just to let you know she has enrolled another year. Change Meetings to Ouarterly - State Statue 24-11-802 Mayor Coody: Sondra has done some homework and if she were here she would be making this request herself. The Police Pension Board meets quarterly instead of monthly. There has been talk that the Fire Pension Board has to meet monthly. She looked at the law and the Fire Pension can meet quarterly if it so chose. We are down to four minute meetings, the finance folks are doing an excellent job, and I don't see why the Fire Pension Board couldn't go to quarterly meetings unless you just love to meet on a regular basis. Gene Warford: I think that sounds like something that needs to be up for discussion at our next meeting and we can vote on it. Marion Doss: I think the full board should. Mayor Coody: I understand. I just wanted you to think about this. Gene Warford: I personally think it is a good idea. Mayor Coody: There is nothing that can't wait two months instead of every month. Firemen's Pension and Relief Fund Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes October 25, 2007 Page 3 of 5 Marion Doss: I always thought it was in the state statue for Fire Pension that they had to meet monthly. Gene Warford: If it's not there's no reason for these four and six minute meetings. Mayor Coody: I couldn't agree more. If I can get out of a meeting I'm all over it. Amber Wood: We. included a copy of the state statue where it states that a meeting can be called by the chair or by a majority of the members in a manner established by the board. So you can establish when you would like to meet, whether it's monthly or quarterly. Mayor Coody: Even the Police Pension meetings that are done quarterly are short too. Basically it's the minutes, pension list and the fmancial reportand that is pretty much 99% of what goes on. You all think about this and the next time we meet we will take a vote because it would save everybody time. Sondra's over worked as it is so it would save us all some time. Gene Warford moved to table to the November meeting. Ronnie Wood seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 4-0. Pete Reagan, Marshall E. Mahan and Sondra Smith were absent. Longer Investments: Monthly Report Page one of the report is the portfolio appraisal the cut off date of this report was quarter end which is September 30th. Your policy allows us to go to 55% plus 5% overage on the equities side and we did close at about 55% so that is why that needs to be approved. The equities that you have are 47.5% and the International stocks that you own are 7.7%. Page four is the total value of the portfolio which it closed the quarter at $8.897 million. In cash we had $108,000 restricted to go out after the end of the quarter. The income yield on the bonds is 5.3%. Through today the five year treasury is trading right at 4%. Page five is a report that gives' a cut off date in this week and you can see month to date your stocks are up another 1.5% or,so. Stocks are 47.5% and foreign is 7.7% so you are right there again at about 55.26/6. Page eight is the value,!.which is $8.845 million. The income yield on the total portfolio which includes your dividends plus your bond interest income is 3.5%. That's income that comes in regardless of what the stock market does. Page nine is the summary of your realized gains and losses. These are just the gains that we have taking on stocks that we have sold, $307,736 year to date and the income is $164,363. Page 10 is a summary of your fixed income holdings. The average yield to maturity is 5.5% which includes your corporate bonds as well as government bonds. The average maturity is 4.6 years so you have a shorter maturity than that five year treasury but your income is 150 basis Firemen's Pension and Relief Fund Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes October 25,2007 Page 4 of 5 points above the yield or 1.5% higher. Within the bond portfolio you have about 30% of your bonds that will mature in the next three years, so we still have a fairly short term structure, a lot of flexibility in the portfolio to be able to continue to roll forward as opportunities present themselves to increase income yield. Page 11 is a summary of your largest holdings Johnson & Johnson, Google, Microsoft Corp., Teva Pharmaceuticals and Kraft Foods Inc. Page 12 is a summary of the industry weightings verses the S&P 500. We are underweight the consumer, consumer cyclical, fmancials, which has really helped performance this year being underweight the fmancials, the cyclicals and utilities. We are overweight the energy, healthcare and technology. Page 13 is a summary of the distributions and contributions inception to.date. The contributions that have come in since August of 2002 are $824,907 and the distributions are $5.24 million. Page 14 is a summary of performance through September 3e. Stocks were up 11.5% that compares to 7.7% on the S&P 500, 9.2% with compounding dividends. The small cap stocks which are the Russell 2000 are only up 2.3% this year. International's are up 6.5%, bonds are up about 4%, cash 5% and so the total was 7.7%. As of yesterday equities are up 13% verses the S&P of 7.14% and your total account is up 8.3% for the year. Your compound annual returns have averaged 11% for stocks, 10.2% for your international holdings, approximately 4% average annual return on bonds, 21.2% on real estate investment trust and a compound annual return of 7.4% compares to 6% in your actuary assumptions. The bottom summary shows the contributions that have come in. The beginning value which is $9.9 million, the contributions $824,907, distributions $5.24 million and the net investment return has been $3.411 million so that your ending value is $8.897 million. Contributions plus investment return have been about $4.2 million verses the $5.2 million distribution and that accounts for the $i million decline: The investment policy is included. We made a change in the Police Pension policy and I wanted to make the same recommendation to you too. We are at 55% equities but because stocks are so out performing bonds what happens is there are times in the middle of the quarter where we are still bumping up. Today if the market is up one percent I'll be at 55.7% by the end of the day. They increased their overage by 10%. We are still shooting to hold it at 55% but that allows us to a least be a 55.7%. if an interim price increase happens, without us being out of compliance. The paragraph we added to;theirs is the manager can operate outside the equity guidelines by not more than 10%; we changed it from not more than 5% to not more than 10%. Gene Warford moved change the Investment Policy to allow Longer Investments to go plus or minus 10% of the current Equity range with approval of the Board. Ronnie Wood seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed 4-0. Pete Reagan, Marshall E. Mahan and Sondra Smith were absent. We got a call from someone from the city and we had gone to 55.6% or 55.7% on one account. It just happens on a big day. In this kind of volatility where we are having 200 and 300 point Firemen's Pension and Relief Fund Board of Trustees Meeting Minutes October 25,2007 Page 5 of 5 days on a regular basis that makes a big difference when you are right at the 55%. We can easily be at 56% by tomorrow. Mayor Coody: That's just a policy change and it doesn't hurt anything. Elaine Longer: No, it just keeps us in compliance. A copy of the Longer Investments monthly report was given to the board. Longer Investments Informational Letter A copy of the Longer Investments informational letter was given to the board. Meeting Adjourned at 11:25 AM (11/28/2007) Sondra Smith- Fire'Retirees eligible for additional benefit Page 1 From: Patricia Leach To: Becker, Paul; Farthing, Marsha; Moore, Wendy; Smith, Sondra; William... Date: 11/16/200710:44 AM Subject: Fire Retirees eligible for additional benefit Attachments: Nov 2007 Corrections.pdf; December 2007.xis; December 2007 Additional Benef it.xls As you know, it was brought to our attention the possibility that Marion Doss should be receiving the additional benefit referenced under municipal code 24-11-826. After checking with LOPFI and Kit, an agreement was made that the years of service for this benefit should stop accumulating as of the date the employee elected DROP. Using this and a previous calculation for a retired Policeman as a guideline, I have calculated the funds that are due Marion Doss, Larry Freedle, and Kenneth Miller. I also checked the other retired firemen and these are the only three that are drawing retirement at this time that are due the extra benefit. The two firemen remaining on DROP do not meet the years over service requirement. I've attached my calculations and two monthly benefit lists for December—one containing the new additional benefit amount and one that does not. The Board, of course, needs to discuss this and I wanted to give them the option of postponing the payment of the additional monthly benefit just in case. On the payment of the prior money owed, for the funds that should have been put in the DROP accounts the retiree should have the option of asking that those funds be paid out in the same method that their DROP balance was paid. Let me know if you have questions. If everyone agrees, this should be placed on the agenda for the next meeting.

The pensioner retired in 1988 but in 2003 was declared disabled due to his former job–fire fighting. The accountant wants us to change the retirement distribution code on the 1099R's to indicate that he is disabled. Our position is that he took retirement from us–not disability–and we will not make the change. Have you ever had this happen?

Many state, county, and municipal governmental retirement plans have disability retirement provisions similar to the plan in Kentucky. NCPERS will be filing an amicus brief along with NASRA and NCTR in support of the Kentucky Retirement System. Several retirement plans have indicated that they may file an amicus brief in support of.Kentucky Retirement's position. Other plans have indicated that they intend to add their names to the amicus brief being prepared by NASRA, NCTR, and NCPERS. For those plans represented by the Attorney General of their individual states, you may request that your Attorney General add his or her name to the amicus brief being prepared by the Michigan Attorney General and circulated through the National Association of Attorneys General. Amicus briefs are due on or before November 12, 2007. If your plan wishes to join an amicus brief in support of Kentucky Retirement's position, you may contact the following persons: NASRA, NCTR, and NCPERS Robert E.
