CAPTRUST has been an outstanding partner in helping us work through the unique characteristics of our employee base and our participant base, and helping us work through those issues when designing our plan. So in terms of the diversification offered within our plan and the types of features that we offer in our plan.

So for example, with CAPTRUST’s advice, we changed our standard design plan to allow people to contribute right away on day one as opposed to having to wait three or six months. We allow part-time folks to contribute to the plan.
