Meeting Date:4/15/2013
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Accept the Actuary's Report for the Employees' Pension Plan for the plan year beginning January 1, 2013.
SUMMARY:
Per the actuary report dated January 1, 2013, a minimum City employer contribution of $19.6 million, or 26.33% of
covered payroll, is required for fiscal year 2014. This is a decrease of $1.3 million over the fiscal 2013 required
contribution of $20.9 million, or 27.97% of covered payroll.
The decrease in the required contribution is primarily due to savings from the changes to the pension plan effective
January 1, 2013, partially offset by increased costs due to changes in plan assumptions, along with an investment loss due
to a 5.5% investment return on the actuarial value of assets.
The savings from the change in plan benefits, effective January 1, 2013, totaled approximately $4.9 million. These
savings were offset by an increase in the required contribution due to the assumptions changes, also effective with the
January 1, 2013 actuarial valuation, totaling $2.3 million. Finally, the final year of the "phase-in" of the calendar 2008
investment losses resulted in an investment return of 5.5%, based on the actuarial value of assets,, versus the assumed
rate of 7.5% (gross of fees). This negative investment return performance increased the required employer contribution,
and further offset the $4.9 million savings, by approximately $1.3 million.
The calendar year 2012 investment return was 13.92% gross of fees, versus the assumed rate of 7.5% gross of fees. This
resulted in an improvement in the investment return based on the actuarial value of assets from 4.46% for the prior year
to 5.50% for the current year valuation. This is the final year of the five year "smoothing", or amortization, of the 2008
investment losses (negative 27.01% return). Calendar 2009 thru 2012 investment returns were 30.93%, 17.50%, (0.32)%,
and 13.92%, respectively. If the plan meets its assumed rate of return of 7% net of fees for calendar 2013, investment
gains will lower next year's required contribution to approximately 21% of covered payroll per the actuary's estimate.
The plan's credit balance, which reflects actual contributions in excess of actuarially required contributions for prior
years, decreased from $6,565,156 to $6,343,864 during calendar 2012. This $224,000 decrease was the result of
budgeting to use approximately $625,000 of the credit balance for fiscal 2013 contributions, offset by interest earnings on
the credit balance.
The Plan's funded ratio is 92.2% versus 97.4% for the prior year. The funded ratio after the plan design changes had
improved to 101.2%. However the changes in the plan assumptions increased the unfunded actuarial accrued liability by
approximately $66 million (amortized over 30 years) resulting in the decrease in the funded ratio to 92.2%. For
comparability to other plans, the actuary notes in the report that the current funded ratio is 88.9% based on the more
commonly used Entry Age Normal funding method.
The Actuarial Value of Assets exceeds the Market Value of Assets by $47.0 million as of January 1, 2013. If Market
Value had been the valuation basis, the required contribution rate would have been 21.24% of covered payroll.

Valuation(Decrease)
The contribution has been adjusted for interest on the basis that payments are made uniformly
during the first two quarters of the City’s fiscal year. The required employer contribution has been
computed under the assumption that the amount to be received from the State on behalf of police officers
and firefighters in 2013 will be $12,000. If the actual payment from the State falls below this amount, then
the City must increase its contribution by the difference.
The actual Employer and State contributions during the year ending December 31, 2012 were
$20,196,816 and $12,000, respectively, for a total of $20,208,816. After $716,904 of the credit balance is
included, the total is equal to the annual required contribution of $20,925,720 for that year.
The minimum required City contribution is 7% of covered payroll.

Revisions in Benefits
Under Ordinance No. 8333-12, the changes in plan provisions listed below were implemented
effective January 1, 2013. These changes do not apply to members who were eligible for normal retirement
as of January 1, 2013.
Hazardous Duty Members
The 1.5% Cost of Living Adjustment is eliminated for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013.
The amount of overtime that is included in pensionable earnings has been limited to 300 hours
per year.
The employee contribution rate has been increased from 8% to 10%.
Non-Hazardous Duty Members
The normal form of benefit has been changed to a Life Annuity.
Overtime and additional pay above the base rate of pay is excluded from pensionable earnings.
Application of the Cost of Living Adjustment is delayed until five years after retirement for
benefits accrued after January 1, 2013.
The minimum duty disability benefit is changed from 66 2/3% to 42% of Average Final
Compensation.
For Non-Hazardous Duty Members hired after January 1, 2013:
• The multiplier is lowered to 2.00% per year.
• The “30 and out” normal retirement eligibility criterion is eliminated, and the “age 55 with
20 years of service” normal retirement eligibility criterion is replaced with normal
retirement eligibility at age 60 with 25 years of service.
Revisions in Actuarial Assumptions or Methods
There have been revisions made to the actuarial assumptions since the last actuarial valuation. An
Experience Study covering the five years ended December 31, 2011 was completed on November 29, 2012,
and all recommended changes were adopted, as follows:
Attachment number 1 \nPage 8 of 61
Item # 2
3
The investment return assumption was changed from 7.50% gross of investment expenses to
7.00% net of investment expenses.
The mortality assumption was changed to reflect current and future generational mortality
improvements using Scale BB.
The salary increase assumption was changed from 6.00% per year to the service-based tables
shown in the Actuarial Assumptions and Cost Method section, which range from 3.5% to 7.9%
based on years of service.
The assumed rate of inflation was lowered from 3.00% to 2.50%.
The assumed rates of future retirement, employment termination, and disability were changed
to the tables shown in the Actuarial Assumptions and Cost Method section, based on observed
experience.
Actuarial Experience
There was a net actuarial experience loss of $7,015,253 during the year, which means that actual
experience was less favorable than expected. The loss is primarily due to recognized investment return (on
the smoothed actuarial value of assets) below the assumed rate of 7.5%. The investment return was
13.92% based on the market value of assets and 5.50% based on the actuarial value of assets. The
investment loss was partially offset by gains due to lower than expected salary increases (4.48% versus
6.0% assumed). This net actuarial loss increased the required employer contribution by 1.24% of covered
payroll.
Analysis of Change in Employer Contribution
The components of change in the required City contribution are as follows:
Contribution Rate Last Year27.97%
Change in Benefits(5.74)
Change in Assumptions and Methods3.06
Amortization Payment on UAAL(0.10)

Funded Ratio
One measure of the Plan’s funding progress is the ratio of the actuarial value of assets to the
actuarial accrued liability. The funded ratio is 92.2% this year compared to 97.4% last year. This year’s
funded ratio was 97.7% before the changes in actuarial assumptions and plan provisions, and it was 101.2%
after recognition of the plan changes but before recognition of the assumption changes. The primary cause
of the decrease in the funded ratio to 92.2% is the change in the valuation interest rate from 7.5% to 7.0%.
If 7.5% had been used in combination with all the other plan changes and assumption changes, the funded
ratio would have been 98.2%.
For information purposes, this year’s funded ratio is 88.9% under the Entry Age Normal funding
method. The Entry Age Normal funding method is the method required under the new GASB Nos. 67 and
68 requirements (GASB No. 67 becomes effective September 30, 2014). If the Entry Age Normal funding
method were used for this actuarial valuation, the City’s contribution requirement would have been 23.16%.
Variability of Future Contribution Rates
The Actuarial Cost Method used to determine the contribution rate is intended to produce
contribution rates which are generally level as a percent of payroll. Even so, when experience differs
from the assumptions, as it often does, the employer’s contribution rate can vary significantly from year-
to-year.
Over time, if the year-to-year gains and losses offset each other, the contribution rate would be
expected to return to the current level, but this does not always happen.
The Market Value of Assets exceeds the Actuarial Value of Assets by $47,047,678 as of the
valuation date (see Section C). This difference will be phased in over the next few years in the absence of
offsetting losses. In turn, the computed employer contribution rate is projected to decline. If there are no
other experience gains or losses and the return on the market value of assets is 7.0% in 2013 (net of
investment expenses) as assumed, it is projected that the City contribution requirement as of January 1,
2014 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015 will be approximately 21% of covered payroll.

Relationship to Market Value
If Market Value had been the basis for the valuation (under a method change), the City
contribution rate would have been 21.24% and the funded ratio would have been 98.5%.

The remainder of this Report includes detailed actuarial valuation results, financial information,
miscellaneous information and statistics, and a summary of plan provisions.

ACTUARIAL GAINS AND LOSSES
The assumptions used to anticipate mortality, employment turnover, investment income, expenses,
salary increases, and other factors have been based on long range trends and expectations. Actual experience
can vary from these expectations. The variance is measured by the gain and loss for the period involved. If
significant long term experience reveals consistent deviation from what has been expected and that deviation
is expected to continue, the assumptions should be modified. The net actuarial gain (loss) for the past year is
computed as follows:
A.Employer Normal Cost as a Percentage

ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS AND COST METHOD
Valuation Methods
Actuarial Cost Method - Normal cost and the allocation of benefit values between service rendered
before and after the valuation date were determined using the Frozen Entry-Age Actuarial Cost
Method. The excess of the Actuarial Present Value of Projected Benefits of the group included in the
valuation, over the sum of the Actuarial Value of Assets, the Unfunded Frozen Actuarial Accrued Liability
and the Actuarial Present Value of Future Member Contributions (if any) is allocated as a level percentage
of earnings of the group between the valuation date and the assumed retirement age. This allocation is
performed for the group as a whole, not as a sum of individual allocations. The portion of this Actuarial
Present Value allocated to a specific year is called the Employer Normal Cost.
Under this method, actuarial gains (losses) reduce (increase) future Normal Costs.
Financing of Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities - Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liabilities (full
funding credit if assets exceed liabilities) were amortized by level (principal & interest combined) dollar
amount contributions over a reasonable period of future years.
Actuarial Value of Assets - The Actuarial Value of Assets phase in the difference between the expected
and actual return on market value of assets at the rate of 20% per year. The Actuarial Value of Assets
will be further adjusted to the extent necessary to fall within the corridor whose lower limit is 80% of the
Market Value of plan assets and whose upper limit is 120% of the Market Value of plan assets. During
periods when investment performance exceeds the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be
less than Market Value. During periods when investment performance is less than assumed rate,
Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be greater than Market Value.
Valuation Assumptions
The actuarial assumptions used in the valuation are shown in this Section.
Economic Assumptions
The investment return rate assumed in the valuations is 7.00% per year, compounded annually (net rate
after investment expenses).
The Wage Inflation Rate assumed in this valuation was 2.50% per year. The Wage Inflation Rate is
defined to be the portion of total pay increases for an individual that are due to macro economic forces
including productivity, price inflation, and labor market conditions. The wage inflation rate does not
include pay changes related to individual merit and seniority effects.
The assumed real rate of return over wage inflation is defined to be the portion of total investment
return that is more than the assumed wage inflation rate. Considering other economic assumptions, the
7.00% investment return rate translates to an assumed real rate of return over wage inflation of 4.50%.
The rate of salary increase used for individual members can be seen in the tables below. Part of the
assumption is for merit and/or seniority increase, and 2.50% recognizes wage inflation, including price
inflation, productivity increases, and other macroeconomic forces. This assumption is used to project a
member’s current salary to the salaries upon which benefits will be based.

Demographic Assumptions
The mortality table was the RP-2000 Combined Healthy Participant Mortality Table for males and
females. The provision for future mortality improvements is being made using Scale BB after 2000.
This assumption is used to measure the probabilities of each benefit payment being made after retirement.
For active members, the probabilities of dying before retirement were based upon the same mortality table
as members dying after retirement. All deaths before retirement are assumed to be non-service connected.

Miscellaneous and Technical Assumptions
Administrative & Investment
Expenses
Effective January 1, 2013, the investment return assumption is
intended to be the net return after investment expenses. Annual
administrative expenses are assumed to be equal to the administrative
expenses of the previous year. Assumed administrative expenses are
added to the Normal Cost. (Previously, the investment return
assumption was intended to be the gross return before investment
expenses, and assumed administrative and investment expenses were
added to the Normal Cost.)
Benefit Service Exact fractional service is used to determine the amount of benefit
payable.
Cost of Living Increases The adjustment is 1.5% annually commencing on each April 1 for all
retirees and beneficiaries who have received at least 6 monthly benefit
payments. There is a five-year delay in the COLA for non-
grandfathered non-hazardous duty members for benefits accrued after
January 1, 2013. There is no COLA for non-grandfathered hazardous
duty members for benefits accrued after January 1, 2013.
Decrement Operation Disability and mortality decrements operate during retirement
eligibility.
Decrement Timing Decrements of all types are assumed to occur at the beginning of the
year.
Eligibility Testing Eligibility for benefits is determined based upon the age nearest
birthday and service nearest whole year on the date the decrement is
assumed to occur.
Forfeitures For vested separations from service, it is assumed that 0% of members
separating will withdraw their contributions and forfeit an employer
financed benefit. It was further assumed that the liability at
termination is the greater of the vested deferred benefit (if any) or the
member’s accumulated contributions.
Incidence of Contributions Employer contributions are assumed to be made in equal installments
during the first two quarters of the fiscal year. Member contributions
are assumed to be received continuously throughout the year based
upon the computed percent of payroll shown in this report, and the
actual payroll payable at the time contributions are made.
Marriage Assumption 85% of males and 85% of females are assumed to be married for
purposes of death-in-service benefits. Male spouses are assumed to be
five years older than female spouses for active member valuation
purposes.

Normal Form of Benefit The normal form of benefit is a life annuity for non-grandfathered
non-hazardous duty members. For all other members, the normal form
of benefit is a life annuity that includes a survivor benefit where after
the participant’s death, 100% is payable to the spouse for five years,
after which the benefit is reduced to 50%.
Pay Increase Timing End of fiscal year. This is equivalent to assuming that reported pays
represent the annual rate of pay on the valuation date. The pay used
for the valuation is equal to the greater of the actual pay for the plan
year increased by the salary scale assumption rate (which varies by
years of service) and the annual rate of pay on the valuation date.
Service Credit Accruals It is assumed that members accrue one year of service credit per year.

GLOSSARY
Actuarial Accrued Liability
(AAL)
The difference between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits,
and the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs.
Actuarial Assumptions Assumptions about future plan experience that affect costs or liabilities,
such as: mortality, withdrawal, disablement, and retirement; future
increases in salary; future rates of investment earnings; future investment
and administrative expenses; characteristics of members not specified in
the data, such as marital status; characteristics of future members; future
elections made by members; and other items.
Actuarial Cost Method A procedure for allocating the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits
between the Actuarial Present Value of Future Normal Costs and the
Actuarial Accrued Liability.
Actuarial Equivalent Of equal Actuarial Present Value, determined as of a given date and based
on a given set of Actuarial Assumptions.
Actuarial Present Value
(APV)
The amount of funds required to provide a payment or series of payments
in the future. It is determined by discounting the future payments with an
assumed interest rate and with the assumed probability each payment will
be made.
Actuarial Present Value of
Future Benefits (APVFB)
The Actuarial Present Value of amounts which are expected to be paid at
various future times to active members, retired members, beneficiaries
receiving benefits, and inactive, nonretired members entitled to either a
refund or a future retirement benefit. Expressed another way, it is the
value that would have to be invested on the valuation date so that the
amount invested plus investment earnings would provide sufficient assets
to pay all projected benefits and expenses when due.
Actuarial Valuation The determination, as of a valuation date, of the Normal Cost, Actuarial
Accrued Liability, Actuarial Value of Assets, and related Actuarial
Present Values for a plan. An Actuarial Valuation for a governmental
retirement system typically also includes calculations of items needed for
compliance with GASB No. 25, such as the Funded Ratio and the Annual
Required Contribution (ARC).
Actuarial Value of Assets The value of the assets as of a given date, used by the actuary for
valuation purposes. This may be the market or fair value of plan assets
or a smoothed value in order to reduce the year-to-year volatility of
calculated results, such as the funded ratio and the actuarially required
contribution (ARC).

Amortization Method
A method for determining the Amortization Payment. The most common
methods used are level dollar and level percentage of payroll. Under the
Level Dollar method, the Amortization Payment is one of a stream of
payments, all equal, whose Actuarial Present Value is equal to the UAAL.
Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the Amortization Payment is
one of a stream of increasing payments, whose Actuarial Present Value is
equal to the UAAL. Under the Level Percentage of Pay method, the
stream of payments increases at the rate at which total covered payroll of
all active members is assumed to increase.
Amortization Payment That portion of the plan contribution or ARC which is designed to pay
interest on and to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability.
Amortization Period The period used in calculating the Amortization Payment.
Annual Required
Contribution (ARC)
The employer’s periodic required contributions, expressed as a dollar
amount or a percentage of covered plan compensation, determined under
GASB No. 25. The ARC consists of the Employer Normal Cost and
Amortization Payment.
Closed Amortization Period A specific number of years that is reduced by one each year, and declines
to zero with the passage of time. For example if the amortization period is
initially set at 30 years, it is 29 years at the end of one year, 28 years at the
end of two years, etc.
Employer Normal Cost The portion of the Normal Cost to be paid by the employer. This is
equal to the Normal Cost less expected member contributions.
Equivalent Single
Amortization Period
For plans that do not establish separate amortization bases (separate
components of the UAAL), this is the same as the Amortization Period.
For plans that do establish separate amortization bases, this is the period
over which the UAAL would be amortized if all amortization bases were
combined upon the current UAAL payment.
Experience Gain/Loss A measure of the difference between the normal cost rate from last year
and the normal cost rate from this year.
Funded Ratio The ratio of the Actuarial Value of Assets to the Actuarial Accrued
Liability.
GASB Governmental Accounting Standards Board.
GASB No. 25 and
GASB No. 27
These are the governmental accounting standards that set the accounting
rules for public retirement systems and the employers that sponsor or
contribute to them. Statement No. 27 sets the accounting rules for the
employers that sponsor or contribute to public retirement systems, while
Statement No. 25 sets the rules for the systems themselves.
Attachment number 1 \nPage 34 of 61

Normal Cost The annual cost assigned, under the Actuarial Cost Method, to the current
plan year.
Open Amortization Period An open amortization period is one which is used to determine the
Amortization Payment but which does not change over time. In other
words, if the initial period is set as 30 years, the same 30-year period is
used in determining the Amortization Period each year. In theory, if an
Open Amortization Period is used to amortize the Unfunded Actuarial
Accrued Liability, the UAAL will never completely disappear, but will
become smaller each year, either as a dollar amount or in relation to
covered payroll.
Unfunded Actuarial Accrued
Liability
The difference between the Actuarial Accrued Liability and Actuarial
Value of Assets.
Valuation Date The date as of which the Actuarial Present Value of Future Benefits are
determined. The benefits expected to be paid in the future are discounted
to this date.

* Before investment expenses
The Actuarial Value of Assets recognizes assumed investment return (line E3) fully each year. Differences between actual and assumed investment income (Line E4) are
phased-in over a closed 5-year period. During periods when investment performance exceeds the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be less than Market Value.
During periods when investment performance is less than the assumed rate, Actuarial Value of Assets will tend to be greater than Market Value. If assumed rates are exactly
realized for 5 consecutive years, Actuarial Value of Assets will become equal to Market Value.

Pension Trustees Agenda
Council Chambers - City Hall
Meeting Date:4/15/2013
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Determine Trustees' expected rate of return for the pension plan's investments for the current year, for each of the next several years,
and for the long term thereafter.
SUMMARY:
Florida Statutes 112.661(9) requires an annual determination of expected rates of return be filed with the Florida Department of
Management Services, with the plan's sponsor, and with the consulting actuary.
Staff is recommending the current plan investment rate of return assumption of 7.0%, net of investment-related fees, as the expected
annual rate of return for the current year; for each of the next several years, and for the long term thereafter.

Meeting Date:4/15/2013
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the request of employee John Cavaliere, Police Department for a regular pension as provided by Sections 2.416 and 2.424 of
the Employees’ Pension Plan.
SUMMARY:
John Cavaliere, Police Officer, Police Department, was employed by the City on September 24, 1990 and his pension service credit
is effective on that date. His pension will be effective April 1, 2013.
Based on an average salary of approximately $80,653.64 per year over the past five years, the formula for computing regular pensions,
and Mr. Cavaliere’s selection of the 100% Joint and Survivor Annuity, this pension will approximate $48,859.44 annually.
Section 2.416 provides for normal retirement eligibility when a participant has completed twenty years of credited service or has
reached age 55 and completed ten years of credited service in a type of employment described as “hazardous duty”. Mr. Cavaliere
qualifies under the hazardous duty criteria.

Pension Trustees Agenda
Council Chambers - City Hall
Meeting Date:4/15/2013
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the City of Clearwater Employee Pension Plan as lead plaintiff in litigation against Maxwell Technologies, Inc regarding
investment losses to the Plan; retain Saxena White, P.A. as legal counsel in this regard and authorize staff to negotiate a retainer
agreement with Saxena White, P.A.
SUMMARY:
In December 2011, the City Employees’ Pension Plan Trustees approved contracts retaining Kessler, Topaz, Melzer,
and Cheek, LLP, and Saxena White, P.A., to provide monitoring of securities in the Pension Plan investment portfolio
in connection with claims for damages suffered by the Pension Plan, at no cost to the Plan.
Saxena White has recommended that the Pension Plan move for lead plaintiff status in a litigation action against
Maxwell Technologies, based in San Diego, California. Maxwell develops, manufactures, and markets products and
services for purification and information technologies and power-conversion systems and components.
Maxwell has announced it must restate its financial statements by millions of dollars because it recognized revenue
prematurely, that the company lacked internal controls, and was notified it was no longer in compliance with
NASDAQ listing rules. The company auditor subsequently resigned because it could no longer rely on management
representations. This has devastated Maxwell's common stock price resulting in a loss of 44% in the value of such
stock since March 7, 2013. The Clearwater Employee Pension plan has sustained losses in excess of $220,000.
Pursuing lead plaintiff status will serve to ensure the Trustees and Plan administrators are fulfilling their fiduciary
responsibilities while conveying a strong message to the public and corporate world that the City is doing its due
diligence in ensuring that the Plan assets are protected.
The cost of litigation will result in no out of pocket expenses to the Plan and the retainer agreement will stipulate as
much.
