		<description>Here&#039;s how I think this works: if a company makes use of the relief provided under the act for its pension funding obligations, then it becomes subject to a number of other requirements.  One of those requirements is to increase its funding by any &quot;excess employee compensation&quot; that was paid during the year.  Therefore, to the extent a company wants to minimize the impact of such additional requirements &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;if&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; it were to take advantage of the pension funding relief provisions, it could exclude equity awards with a minimum 5 year vesting period.</description>

		<description>My understanding of these new rules is that the requirement to put additional money in the pension plan is only required if your pension plan funding is under the 80% threshold, then all of the things noted in this article could trigger additional pension funding....but only if your pension plan funding is &quot;at risk&quot;, below the 80% threshold.</description>

		<description>No, RMG did not issue any formal press release on this issue.  Instead, RMG&#039;s Corporate Service Group sent out an e-mail notifying certain individuals (most likely folks you run the ISSue Compass model for client companies) that set forth these burn rate commitments that the RMG Research Group had found acceptable.</description>

		<description>Did RMG issue a formal press release or policy statement on this issue? I took a look at their website and did not see anything at first blush.</description>
