"After plaintiffs retired, the Plan's board amended the crediting rate again which resulted in a more flexible crediting rate linked to a participant's selection of one (or more) of four valuation funds ... But this arrangement included more volatility and risk, including the possibility of losing value in a participant's notational account.

Deferred Comp. Plan for Key Executives, No. 16-1606 (4th Cir. Nov. 8, 2017)]  MORE >>
