. (a) The board may establish a segregated account within the
program fund to be known as the Gain and Loss Reserve Account. The
board shall have sole authority over the Gain and Loss Reserve

used to allocate interest at the stated interest rate for program
years in which the board determines that the stated interest rate
cannot be met from investment earnings.

and Loss Reserve Account and shall periodically review the
sufficiency of the reserve account based on the recommendations of
the board's actuary.
(c) The board may allocate excess earnings of the program with
respect to assets attributable to the program to the Gain and Loss
Reserve Account. In addition, the board may allocate any liability
gains and losses to the Gain and Loss Reserve Account. Based on an
actuarial valuation following each program year, the board shall
determine annually the amount, if any, that is to be allocated to the
Gain and Loss Reserve Account for that program year. In determining
whether to allocate excess earnings to the Gain and Loss Reserve
Account, the board shall consider all of the following:
(1) Whether or not the program has excess earnings.
(2) The sufficiency of the Gain and Loss Reserve Account in light
of the goal established pursuant to subdivision (b).
(3) The amount required for the program's administrative costs.
(4) The amount required for making allocations to individuals'
accounts at the stated interest rate.
(d) In determining whether to allocate liability gains and losses
to the Gain and Loss Reserve Account, the board shall consider the
matters described in paragraphs (2), (3), and (4) of subdivision (c).
