<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><br>
The staff of the <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Oregon Savings Growth Plan</span></b>
(deferred comp) have asked us to pass along this year-end reminder:<br>
<br>
If you have an employee retiring or terminating from state service (not transferring)
in December of this year, you must pay special attention to any active DCNN
deferrals for that employee. The maximum deferral for DCNN100 in 2008 is
$15,500. Use your XREF44 Payroll Register to determine if the employee
has met the maximum for the year. You may need to adjust dollar amounts
or eliminate the deduction entirely so the maximum is not exceeded.<br>
<br>
If your employee’s deferral is DCNN600 (catch up contribution) or if you
have other questions regarding this process, please contact the customer
service staff at the <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Oregon Savings Growth
Plan</span></b>, 503-378-3730. They will help you evaluate the need for
any adjustments at year-end. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
