· The unit shall become an automatic enrollment unit on July 1, 2009, or as soon as notice of the decision has been delivered in writing to the system, whichever is later;
· That all permanent full-time employees hired on or after the effective date of this election shall be automatically enrolled in the SDRS-Supplemental Retirement Plan;

· That twenty-five dollars per month shall be deferred to the plan from the employee’s compensation, effective with the employee’s first pay date;
· That the SRP deferral shall continue from the effective date of hire until the employee officially provides notice to the SRP of his/her election not to participate;
o Special Rule for Automatic Enrollees: if the employee elects not to participate in the plan within 90 days after his or her first pay date and gives notice of that election to the plan in a manner prescribed by the SDRS Board of Trustees, the deferred compensation amount and the associated gains or losses, less federal income tax withholding, shall be refunded to the automatic enrollee within 30 days of receipt of the final contribution.
