The prior valuation report was prepared as of January 1, 2010. The <br />actuarial assumptions and methods used in this valuation are unchanged from those used <br />in the prior valuation except for a recent change to Actuarial Standard of Practice No. 35 <br />which updated the RP -2000 table and requires that mortality assumptions used in <br />valuations prepared as of June 30, 2011 reflect a provision for future improvements in <br />longevity. A table that compares the principal results from the current and most recent <br />prior valuations was reviewed. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability as of 1/1112 is <br />$29,792,297 as compared to $14,897,208 as of 1 /l /10 and the market value of assets is <br />$104,215,807 as compared to $100,211,610.
