DETAILED BENEFIT PLAN FINANCIAL DATA SALARY CONTINUATION PLAN GREER STATE BANK This section of the recommendation sets forth the estimated income and expenses associated with the implementation of the benefit plan and the related financing strategy. Included in this section are summary data for all plan participants and detailed data for the individual plan participants. In order to facilitate your review and understanding of the financial data, the following is an explanation of the key terms used: INTEREST ON POLICY EQUITY VALUE- The gross income earned on the insurance policy asset based on current policy interest rates. AFTER TAX OPPORTUNITY COST- By purchasing the insurance asset that we have recommended, the employer would either liquidate an existing earning asset or pass up the opportunity to invest the funds elsewhere. This calculation measures the after-tax effect of this lost income or "opportunity cost." This cost is compounded annually. LOAD, SURRENDER CHARGES AND MORTALITY COST- All of the expenses of providing and maintaining the insurance coverage, which are charged against the policy equity value. SALARY CONTINUATION EXPENSES- Fees paid to establish and service the plan. The expense accruals for the salary continuation benefit plan use the interest method calculation. INCOME TAXES- The estimated current and deferred tax savings on the salary continuation benefit plan. NET PLAN GAIN (LOSS)- The estimated annual net gain or loss of providing the benefit plan. CUMULATIVE NET PLAN GAIN (LOSS)- The cumulative total of the annual net plan gain or loss. The specific assumptions used in preparing the illustrations are as follows: Interest rate on policy equity value................. 6.00% (Weighted average) Opportunity cost rate................................ 5.25% Corporate tax rate................................... 38.00% Discount rate for accruals........................... 8.00
