NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY Swainsboro Technical College is one of thirty-three (33) State supported member colleges of postsecondary education in Georgia which comprise the Technical College System of Georgia, an organizational unit of the State of Georgia. The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations of Swainsboro Technical College as a separate reporting entity.
The Technical College's Local Board of Directors is composed of nine (9) members serving staggered three-year terms who are appointed by the State Board of Technical and Adult Education. Appropriation of State funds is made to the Technical College System of Georgia by the General Assembly of Georgia. The System Office of the Technical College System of Georgia determines the amount of State appropriations to be received by Swainsboro Technical College. The Technical College does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, Swainsboro Technical College is considered an organizational unit of the Technical College System of Georgia for financial reporting purposes because of the significance of its legal, operational, and financial relationships as defined in Section 2 100 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards.
NET ASSETS The Technical College's net assets are classified as follows:
Invested in capital assets, net of related debt: This amount represents the Technical College's total investment in capital assets, net of outstanding debt obligations related to those capital assets. To the extent debt has been incurred but not yet expended for capital assets, such amounts are not included as a component of invested in capital assets, net of related debt.
Unrestricted net assets: Unrestricted net assets represent available resources derived from student tuition and fees, state appropriations, and sales and services of educational departments. These resources will be used for transactions relating to the educational and general operations of the Technical College, and may be used at the discretion of the governing board to meet subsequent fiscal year expenses for those purposes, except for unexpended state appropriations (surplus) of $1,238.70. Unexpended state appropriations must be refunded to the Technical College System of Georgia for remittance to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services.
NOTE 2: DEPOSITS
DEPOSITS The custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the Technical College's deposits may not be recovered. Funds belonging to the State of Georgia (and thus the Technical College) cannot be placed in a depository paying interest longer than ten days without the depository providing a surety bond to the State. In lieu of a surety bond, the depository may pledge as collateral any one or more of the following securities as enumerated in the Official Code of Georgia Annotated Section 50-17-59:

EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Plan Description Swainsboro Technical College participates in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia (ERS), a single-employer defined benefit pension plan established by the General Assembly of Georgia for the purpose of providing retirement allowances for employees of the State of Georgia.
The ERS Board of Trustees created the Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (SRBP) effective January 1, 1998. The SRBP was established as a qualified governmental excess benefit plan in accordance with Section 4 15 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as a portion of ERS. The purpose of SRBP is to provide retirement benefits to employees covered by ERS whose benefits are otherwise limited by IRC 415.
The benefit structure of ERS is established by the Board of Trustees under statutory guidelines. Unless the employee elects otherwise, an employee who currently maintains membership with ERS based upon State employment that started prior to July 1, 1982, is an "old plan" member subject to the plan provisions in effect prior to July 1, 1982. Members hired on or after July 1, 1982 but prior to January 1, 2009 are "new plan" members subject to the modified plan provisions. Effective January 1, 2009, newly hired State employees, as well as rehired State employees who did not

NOTE 9: RETIREMENT PLANS
EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Plan Description maintain eligibility for the "old" or "new" plan, are members of the Georgia State Employees' Pension and Savings Plan (GSEPS). ERS members hired prior to January 1, 2009 also have the option to change their membership to the GSEPS plan.
Under the old plan, new plan, and GSEPS, a member may retire and receive normal retirement benefits after completion of 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 60 or 30 years of creditable service regardless of age. Additionally, there are some provisions allowing for early retirement after 25 years of creditable service for members under age 60.
Retirement benefits paid to members are based upon a formula adopted by the Board of Trustees for such purpose. The formula considers the monthly average of the member's highest 24 consecutive calendar months of salary, the number of years of creditable service, and the member's age at retirement. Post-retirement cost-of-living adjustments may be made to members' benefits provided the members were hired prior to July 1,2009. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life; however, options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension, at reduced rates, to a designated beneficiary upon the member's death. Death and disability benefits are also available through ERS.
Funding Policy As established by State statute, all full-time employees of the State of Georgia and its political subdivisions, who are not members of other state retirement systems, are eligible to participate in the ERS. Both employer and employee contributions are established by State statute. The Technical College's payroll for the year ended June 30, 2009, for employees covered by ERS was $1,162,501.64. The Technical College's total payroll for all employees was $4,341,552.29.
Member contribution rates are set by law. Member contributions under the old plan are 4% of annual compensation up to $4,200 plus 6% of annual compensation in excess of $4,200. Under the old plan, the Technical College pays member contributions in excess of 1.25% of annual compensation. Under the old plan, these Technical College contributions are included in the members' accounts for refund purposes and are used in the computation of the members' earnable compensation for the purpose of computing retirement benefits. Member contributions under the new plan and GSEPS are 1.25% of annual compensation. The Technical College is required to contribute at a specified percentage of active member payroll established by the Board of Trustees determined annually in accordance with actuarial valuation and minimum hnding standards as provided by law. These Technical College contributions are not at any time refundable to the member or hislher beneficiary.

Upon the death of a member, a lump sum distribution equaling the amount credited to hisher account will be paid to the member's designated beneficiary.

NOTE 10: CONTINGENCIES
Amounts received or receivable from grantor agenciesare subjectto audit and adjustmentby grantor agencies. This could result in refunds to the grantor agency for any expenses which are disallowed under grant terms. The amount of expenses which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although Swainsboro Technical College expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial to its overall financial position.
Litigation, claims and assessments filed against Swainsboro Technical College (an organizational unit of the Technical College System of Georgia), if any, are generally considered to be actions against the State of Georgia. Accordingly, significant litigation, claims and assessments pending against the State of Georgia are disclosed in the State of Georgia Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30,2009.
NOTE 11: POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
The Technical College participates in two State of Georgia postemployment benefit plans, the Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund (administered by the Department of Community Health) and the State Employees' Assurance Department - OPEB (administered by the ERS System). Separate financial reports that include the applicable financial statements and required supplementary information for these plans are publicly available and may be obtained from the respective system offices.
Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund The Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund (GRHBF) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit postemployment healthcare plan that covers retired employees of the State including all departments, agencies and local school systems. GRHBF provides health insurance benefits to eligible retirees and their qualified beneficiaries through the health insurance plan for State employees. The Official Code of Georgia Annotated (OCGA) assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions of the employees' health insuranceplan (including benefits for retirees) to the Board of Community Health (Board).

EXHIBIT "D"

NOTE 11: POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund The contribution requirements of the plan members and participating employers are established by the Board in accordance with the current Appropriations Act and may be amended by the Board. Contributions of plan members or beneficiaries vary based on plan election, dependent coverage, and Medicare eligibility and election. On average, plan members pay approximately 25 percent of the cost of the health insurance coverage.

Participating employers are statutorily required to contribute in accordance with the employer contribution rates established by the Board. The contribution rate is established to fund both the active and retired employee health insurance plans based on projected "pay-as-you-go" financing requirements. The combined rates for the active and retiree plans for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, were as follows:

July 2008 - January 2009 February 2009
March 2009 - June 2009

22.165% of covered payroll for August - February Coverage 1.926% of covered payroll for March Coverage 0.000% of covered payroll for April - July Coverage

No additional contribution was required by the Board for fiscal year 2009 nor contributed to GRHBF to prehnd retiree benefits. Such additional contribution amounts are determined annually by the Board in accordance with the State plan for other postemployment benefits and are subject to appropriation.

The following table summarizes the Technical College's contributions to the health insurance plans for the years ending June 30,2009 and June 30,2008, (dollars in thousands):
