ACTUARIAL ACCRUED LIABILITY The actuarial accrued liability is the amount which, together with assumed investment earnings, will be sufficient to pay earned retirement benefits for the lifetimes of those Plan participants eligible for retirement benefits. The difference between net assets and total actuarial accrued liability is the unfunded actuarial accrued liability.

The Plan year ends June 30. EMPLOYER WITHDRAWAL LIABILITY Multi-employer plans are required by the Multi-employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980 to establish procedures for the determination and imposition of withdrawal liability upon the withdrawal of a contributing employer. Under special rules approved by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, the ILWU-PMA Pension Plan will impose withdrawal liability for a withdrawal where the employer a) during the 5 years following withdrawal continues or resumes covered operation without an obligation to make contributions or b) sells or transfers all or a substantial portion of its business or assets to a non-contributing employer. An employer that simply goes out of business will generally have no withdrawal liability. To satisfy the withdrawal requirement, the Plan uses the presumptive method for the computation of withdrawal liability. The presumptive method bases such liability on certain components of the Plan's unfunded vested benefits liability. The unfunded vested benefits liability for the Plan Year ended June 30 is shown below. The benefits reflected in the calculation for active employees include only retirement benefits already accumulated, already vested and for which the active employees qualified as a result of age and service through June 30.
