In doing so, Great -West will not <br />exercise any fiduciary authority or make any <br />discretionary determinations. Rather, this Agreement <br />will act as a one -time, blanket instruction and <br />approval by Plan Sponsor for Great -West to process <br />all Participant requests that meet the stated criteria. <br />In order to receive the enhanced, signatureless <br />services detailed in this Section III., Plan Sponsor <br />must utilize the PSC and must provide all necessary <br />information in a PDI file. Plan Sponsor must also <br />provide any additional information or instructions as <br />required by, and in a form acceptable to, Great -West. <br />In addition, in most cases, Great -West must be the <br />sole recordkeeper for the Plan. If at any time Plan <br />Sponsor does not meet these general requirements, <br />or does not meet the specific requirements of any <br />service described in this Section III., Great -West shall <br />not be responsible to continue to provide such <br />service. <br />B. Deferral Recordkeeping <br />Plan Sponsor hereby instructs and authorizes <br />Great -West to allow Participants to update their <br />deferral elections via the Plan- customized Great - <br />West website and automated voice response system. <br />Plan Sponsor shall provide deferral amount data for <br />all Participants. Great -West will forward updated <br />deferral information to Plan Sponsor according to the <br />schedule elected by Plan Sponsor. <br />C. Beneficiary Recordkeeping <br />Plan Sponsor affirms that the Plan allows web - <br />initiated beneficiary designations.

Upon request, Plan <br />Sponsor agrees to provide Great -West with any and <br />all beneficiary information filed with the Plan by <br />Participants prior to the Effective Date. <br />City of Santa Ana Services Agreement 401 (a) 02 -02 -15 Page 10 <br />
