COMMUNITY ACTION PARTNERSHIP OF KERN DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PENSION PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FEBRUARY 28, 2014 AND 2013 NOTE 1 PLAN DESCRIPTION The following description of the Community Action Partnership of Kern (the Organization) Defined Contribution Pension Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan s provisions. General The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees who have been employed by the Organization for one year or more with at least 800 hours worked during the year and who are at least 21 years of age. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Contributions The Plan s provisions stipulate that the Organization will contribute to the Plan an amount equal to 5% of the participant s compensation for the Plan year. Participants direct the investment of the Organization s contribution into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Plan offers participants 38 investment options and an Interest Accumulation Account from 10 different investment companies. Contributions are subject to certain limitations. Participants Accounts Each participant s account is credited with an allocation of (a) the Organization s contribution and (b) Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participants earnings, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant s vested account. Any contributions made on behalf of a participant, for whom no investment direction is in effect, shall be allocated to a retirement fund appropriate to his or her age at the time of allocation. Vesting Vesting in the Organization s contributions plus earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. A participant is 100 percent vested after 5 years of credited service. Year(s) of Vesting Service Vesting Percentage Less than 2 years 0% 2 years 25% 3 years 50% 4 years 75% 5 years 100% Payment of Benefits On termination due to death, disability, or retirement, a participant may elect to receive an amount equal to the value of the participant s vested interest in his or her account either in a lump sum amount, or as a joint and survivor annuity. For termination of service due to other reasons, a participant may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a rollover distribution. Amounts allocated to accounts of persons who have elected to withdraw from the Plan but have not yet been paid as of February 28, 2014 and 2013, were $0 and $0, respectively. 5
NOTE 1 PLAN DESCRIPTION (Continued) Forfeited Accounts During fiscal years 2014 and 2013, forfeitures were allocated among the participants who were employees on the last day of the Plan year in the ratio that each such participant s compensation for that Plan year bears to the compensation of all such Plan participants for that Plan year. As of February 28, 2014, forfeitures reallocated to participant accounts were $79,775. In fiscal year 2013, forfeitures reallocated to participant accounts were $75,988. NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Plan revenues and expenses are recognized when they become measurable. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investment Valuation and Income Recognition Investments are recorded at fair value as determined by quoted market prices of the securities held in the funds. The unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the investments, based on the quoted market value at February 28, 2014 and 2013, is recorded as an increase or decrease to Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits. See Note 3 for discussion of fair value measurements. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Net appreciation (depreciation) includes the Plan s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year. NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Organization has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157). ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 Level 2 Asset value is based on actual quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (mark-to-market). Other significant observable inputs are used to arrive at fair value (including yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, issue type, quoted prices for similar securities, prepayment speeds, trading characteristics, etc.). 6
NOTE 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued) Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs (including management s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). Mutual of America determined that the fair value input for all investments as of February 28, 2014 and 2013, are considered Level 1. These investments consist solely of investments in mutual funds registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are carried at the net asset value at which the mutual funds shares are actively traded. The preceding method described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation method is appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Specifically, investments and contributions received as of and for the years ended February 28, 2014 and 2013, were supplied by the trustee and such information has been certified by the trustee as being complete and accurate. 8
NOTE 5 PLAN ADMINISTRATION The Plan s assets are held by the trustee, Mutual of America. The trustee provides record keeping and investment services to the Plan. The Organization s contributions are managed by Mutual of America which invests cash received and interest income and makes distributions to participants. Administrative functions are jointly performed by the trustee and by officers or employees of the Organization. No officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan. Trustee administrative expenses are absorbed by the Plan and allocated to the participants accounts. The independent auditor s fees are paid directly by the Organization. NOTE 6 PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Organization has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants shall become 100 percent vested in their accounts. Upon such termination, the Organization may direct either a complete distribution of the Plan assets in a manner consistent with Plan requirements, or continue to hold the investments of the Plan as though the Plan had not been terminated. In the event that the Plan is terminated, the trustee will have the right to charge a fair value assessment on funds withdrawn prior to maturity. The amount of this assessment is equal to the amount required to cover the investment losses, if any, resulting from making an early payment of funds. NOTE 7 TAX STATUS The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Organization with a letter dated September 28, 1992, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan s tax counsel believe the Plan is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable provisions of the IRC. The FASB issued new guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Plan adopted this new guidance for the year ended February 28, 2010. Management evaluated the Plan s tax positions and concluded that the Plan had maintained its tax exempt status and had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the financial statements. Uncertain Tax Positions ASC Topic 740 requires that amounts recognized in the Statement of Net Assets Available for Plan Benefits related to uncertain tax positions be classified as a current or noncurrent liability, based on the expected timing of the payment to a taxing authority. Management has determined that the Plan does not have any uncertain tax positions or associated unrecognized benefits that materially impact the financial statements or related disclosures.
