Section 11:2163 - Benefit providedA. An excess benefit participant who is receiving benefits from the pension plan is entitled to a monthly benefit under this excess benefit plan in an amount equal to the lesser of:(1) The member's unrestricted benefit less the maximum benefit; or(2) The amount by which the member's monthly benefit from the pension plan has been reduced because of the limitations of R.S. 11:2151.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. 11:2151 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. The rights, duties, and responsibilities of the board shall be the same for this excess benefit plan as for the pension plan set forth in this Chapter.D. The actuary employed by the board 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. 11:2151 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.La.
