Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 11, § 1577. Benefit provided

B. A retirement benefit payable under this excess benefit plan shall be paid in the form and at the time it would have been paid as a monthly pension under the pension plan except for the limitations under R.S. 11:1531 and Section 415 of the Code. Each optional benefit form permitted under this excess benefit plan shall be the actuarial equivalent of each other permitted benefit form.

C. This plan shall be administered by the board of trustees. Except as provided to the contrary by this Part, the rights, duties, and responsibilities of the board of trustees shall be the same for this excess benefit plan as for the pension plan set forth in Part IV of this Chapter.

D. The actuary employed by the board of trustees is responsible for determining the amount of benefits that may not be provided under the pension plan solely because of the limitations of R.S. 11:1531 and Section 415 of the Code and thus the amount of contributions that will be made to this excess benefit plan rather than to the pension plan.

E. The actuary designated in R.S. 11:1542(12) shall also provide advice to the board of trustees for this excess benefit plan.
