💼MSKCC Secures Exemption for Enhanced Pension Benefits

This document contains a notice of exemption issued by the Department of Labor (the Department) from certain prohibited transaction restrictions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA or the Act) and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code). This exemption permits the reinsurance of risks and the receipt of a premium by MSK Employee Benefits IC (MSK EB or the Captive), a captive insurance and reinsurance subsidiary that is wholly-owned by MSKCC, in connection with a single premium group insurance contract sold by an unrelated fronting insurer (the Fronting Insurer or the Fronter) to provide pension annuities to participants and beneficiaries in the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Pension Plan (the Plan). The relief provided in the exemption will only be available if the conditions in Section III are met in conformance with the definitions in Section I.
