immediately preceding termination of participation plus any monthly
periodic additions made to the DROP account subsequent to the end
of the previous quarter and prior to distribution. If a Member is
employed by the City after participating in the DROP for the
permissible period of DROP participation, then beginning with the
Member's 1st month of employment following the last month of
DROP participation, the Member's DROP Account will no longer be
credited or debited with earnings or interest, nor will monthly benefits
be transferred to the DROP account. All such non-transferred
amounts shall be forfeited and continue to be forfeited while the
Member is employed by the City. A Member employed by the City
after the permissible period of DROP participation will still not be
eligible for pre-retirement death or disability benefits, nor will he
accrue additional Credited Service.
4. Distribution of DROP Accounts on Termination of Employment.
A. Eligibility for Benefits.
A Member shall receive the balance in his DROP Account in accordance with
the provisions of this subsection 4. upon his termination of employment as
a General Employee. Except as provided in subsection 4.E., no amounts shall
be paid to a Member from the DROP prior to his termination of employment
as a General Employee.
Page 10
B. Form of Distribution.
(1) Unless the Member elects otherwise, distribution of his DROP
Account shall be made in a cash lump sum, subject to the direct
rollover provisions set forth in subsection 4.& F. A Member may,
however, elect, in such time and manner as the Board shall prescribe,
that his DROP distribution be used to purchase a nonforfeitable fixed
annuity payable in such form as the Member may elect. Elections
under this paragraph shall be in writing and shall be made in such
time or manner as the Board shall determine.
(2) If a Member dies before his benefit is paid, his DROP Account shall
be paid to his Beneficiary in such optional form as his Beneficiary
may select. If no Beneficiary designation is made, the DROP
Account shall be distributed to the Member's estate.
C. Date of Payment of Distribution.
Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 4., distribution of a Member's
DROP Account shall be made as soon as administratively practicable
following the Member's termination of employment. Distribution of the
amount in a Member's DROP account will not be made unless the Member
completes a written request for distribution and a written election, on forms
designated by the Board, to either receive a cash lump sum or a rollover of
the lump sum amount.
D. Proof of Death and Right of Beneficiary or Other Person.
The Board may require and rely upon such proof of death and such evidence
of the right of any Beneficiary or other person to receive the value of a
deceased Member's DROP Account as the Board may deem proper and its
determination of the right of that Beneficiary or other person to receive
payment shall be conclusive.
E. Distribution Limitation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection 4., all distributions
from the DROP shall conform to the "Minimum Distribution Of Benefits"
provisions as provided for herein..
F. Direct Rollover of Certain Distributions.
This subsection applies to distributions made on or after January 1, 2002.
Notwithstanding any provision of the DROP to the contrary, a distributee
may elect to have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution paid in a
direct rollover as otherwise provided under the System in Section 23, herein
incorporated by reference.
5. Administration of DROP.
A. Board Administers the DROP.
The general administration of the DROP, the responsibility for carrying out
the provisions of the DROP and the responsibility of overseeing the
investment ofthe DROP's assets shall be placed in the Board. The members
of the Board may appoint from their number such subcommittees with such
Page 11
powers as they shall determine; may adopt such administrative procedures
and regulations as they deem desirable for the conduct of their affairs; may
authorize one or more of their number or any agent to execute or deliver any
instrument or make any payment on their behalf; may retain counsel, employ
agents and provide for such clerical, accounting, actuarial and consulting
services as they may require in canying out the provisions of the DROP; and
may allocate among themselves or delegate to other persons all or such
portion of their duties under the DROP, other than those granted to them as
Trustee under any trust agreement adopted for use in implementing the
DROP, as they, in their sole discretion, shall decide. A Trustee shall not vote
on any question relating exclusively to himself.
B. Individual Accounts. Records and Reports.
The Board shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, records showing the
operation and condition of the DROP, including records showing the
individual balances in each Member's DROP Account, and the Board shall
keep, or cause to be kept, in convenient form such data as may be necessary
for the valuation of the assets and liabilities of the DROP. The Board shall
prepare or cause to be prepared and distributed to Members participating in
the DROP and other individuals or filed with the appropriate governmental
agencies, as the case may be, all necessary descriptions, reports, information
returns, and data required to be distributed or filed for the DROP pursuant to
the Code, the applicable portions ofthe Act and any other applicable laws.
C. Establishment of Rules.
Subject to the limitations of the DROP, the Board from time to time shall
establish rules for the administration of the DROP and the transaction of its
business. The Board shall have discretionary authority to construe and
interpret the DROP (including but not limited to determination of an
individual's eligibility for DROP participation, the right and amount of any
benefit payable under the DROP and the date on which any individual ceases
to be a participant in the DROP). The determination of the Board as to the
interpretation of the DROP or its determination of any disputed questions
shall be conclusive and final to the extent permitted by applicable law. The
Board shall also oversee the investment of the DROP'S assets.
D. Limitation of Liability.
(1) The Trustees shall not incur any liability individually or on behalf of
any other individuals for any act or failure to act, made in good faith
in relation to the DROP or the funds of the DROP.
(2) Neither the Board nor any Trustee of the Board shall be responsible
for any reports furnished by any expert retained or employed by the
Board, but they shall be entitled to rely thereon as well as on
certificates furnished by an accountant or an actuary, and on all
opinions of counsel. The Board shall be fully protected with respect
to any action taken or suffered by it in good faith in reliance upon
such expert, accountant, actuary or counsel, and all actions taken or
suffered in such reliance shall be conclusive upon any person with
any interest in the DROP.
Page 12
6. General Provisions.
A. Amendment of DROP.
The DROP may be amended by an ordinance ofthe City at any time and from
time to time, and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate, to amend
in whole or in part any or all of the provisions of the DROP. However,
except as otherwise provided by law, no amendment shall make it possible
for any part ofthe DROP's funds to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other
than for the exclusive benefit of persons entitled to benefits under the DROP.
No amendment shall be made which has the effect of decreasing the balance
of the DROP Account of any Member.
B. Facility of Payment.
If the Board shall find that a Member or other person entitled to a benefit
under the DROP is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident
or is a minor, the Board may direct that any benefit due him, unless claim
shall have been made for the benefit by a duly appointed legal representative,
be paid to his Spouse, a child, a parent or other blood relative, or to a person
with whom he resides. Any payment so made shall be a complete discharge
of the liabilities of the DROP for that benefit.
C. Information.
Each Member, Beneficiary or other person entitled to a benefit, before any
benefit shall be payable to him or on his account under the DROP, shall file
with the Board the information that it shall require to establish his rights and
benefits under the DROP.
D. Prevention of Escheat.
If the Board cannot ascertain the whereabouts of any person to whom a
payment is due under the DROP, the Board may, no earlier than three (3)
years from the date such payment is due, mail a notice of such due and owing
payment to the last known address of such person, as shown on the records
of the Board or the City. If such person has not made written claim therefor
within three (3) months of the date of the mailing, the Board may, if it so
elects and upon receiving advice from counsel to the DROP, direct that such
payment and all remaining payments otherwise due such person be canceled
on the records of the DROP. Upon such cancellation, the DROP shall have
no further liability therefor except that, in the event such person or his
Beneficiary later notifies the Board of his whereabouts and requests the
payment or payments due to him under the DROP, the amount so applied
shall be paid to him in accordance with the provisions of the DROP.
E. Written Elections. Notification.
(1) Any elections, notifications or designations made by a Member
pursuant to the provisions of the DROP shall be made in writing and
filed with the Board in a time and manner determined by the Board
under rules uniformly applicable to all employees similarly situated.
The Board reserves the right to change from the time and manner for
making notifications, elections or designations by Members under the
DROP if it determines after due deliberation that such action is
justified in that it improves the administration of the DROP. In the
Page 13
event of a conflict between the provisions for making an election,
notification or designation set forth in the DROP and such new
administrative procedures, those new administrative procedures shall
prevail.
(2) Each Member or Retiree who has a DROP Account shall be
responsible for furnishing the Board with his current address and any
subsequent changes in his address. Any notice required to be given
to a Member or Retiree hereunder shall be deemed given if directed
to him at the last such address given to the Board and mailed by
registered or certified United States mail. If any check mailed by
registered or certified United States mail to such address is returned,
mailing of checks will be suspended until such time as the Member
or Retiree notifies the Board of his address.
F. Benefits Not Guaranteed.
All benefits payable to a Member from the DROP shall be paid only from the
assets of the Member's DROP Account and neither the City nor the Board
shall have any duty or liability to furnish the DROP with any funds, securities
or other assets except to the extent required by any applicable law.
G. Construction.
(1) The DROP shall be construed, regulated and administered under the
laws of Florida, except where other applicable law controls.
(2) The titles and headings of the subsections in this Section 25 are for
convenience only. In the case of ambiguity or inconsistency, the text
rather than the titles or headings shall control.
H. Forfeiture of Retirement Benefits.
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to remove DROP participants from
the application of any forfeiture provisions applicable to the System. DROP
participants shall be subject to forfeiture of all retirement benefits, including
DROP benefits.
I Effect of DROP Participation on Emplovrnent.
Participation in the DROP is not a guarantee of employment and DROP
participants shall be subject to the same employment standards and policies
that are applicable to employees who are not DROP participants.
SECTION 9: That Ordinance No. 96-19, adopting the amended and restated City of
Ocoee Municipal General Employees' Retirement Trust Fund, is hereby amended by adding
a new Section 28, Purchase of Credited Service for Air Time, to read as follows:

is requesting credit plus amounts actuarially determined such that the crediting of
service does not result in any cost to the fund plus payment of costs for all
professional services rendered to the board in connection with the purchase of years
of credited service.
B. Multiple requests to purchase credited service pursuant to this section may be made
at any time prior to retirement.
C. Payment bv the member of the required amount shall be made within six (6) months

and eligibility for disability benefits. The maximum combined purchase under this
section and sections 26 and 27 shall be five (5) years.
SECTION 10. Repeal of Ordinances. All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict
herewith are hereby repealed..
