3 Tax Incentive Update Dec 2013 On December 6, 2013, China government announced its new tax incentive on Enterprise Annuity (thereafter refers as EA ), the qualified supplemental retirement plan. The new regulation reduces the Individual Income Tax (IIT) in a large degree by using tax deferral mechanism, and it is expected to be effective on January 1, Employer Contribution: Tax exempt, the contribution percentage depends on plan design, according to earlier EA requirement, employer s total contribution is capped at up to 8.33% of last year total salary; Employee Contribution: Tax exempt within 4% of last year employee s salary, capped at 3 times of City Average Salary; Investment Income: Tax exempt; Benefits Withdrawal: Tax is paid when plan participants reach retirement age. Their monthly withdrawal will be added to taxable income and subjects to Individual Income Tax. The IIT will be withheld by plan trustee. For companies already implemented Enterprise Annuity, employees past contribution, which already paid relevant tax, will not be taxed again. There is no changes on employer tax. Based on earlier regulation, EA contribution is tax deductible within 5% of total salary. 2

5 Our POV on Regulation Changes Aon Hewitt Point of View EA experienced a slow development since its debut in 2006, one of the key reasons being a lack of tax incentive. The new tax relief is expected to boost the development of the EA market. For an employee with monthly income of RMB 12,000, with an EA plan that collects a contribution of 8% on the employer side and a contribution of 4% on the employee side, his or her tax deferred pension contribution will be 12% (RMB1,440), when tax is paid upon withdrawal at retirement, tax savings will be generated due to the lower tax bracket used. EA contributions becomes the only tax deductible benefits items for Chinese employees, now employers need to re-consider their total reward strategy, especially how to maximize the return to employees. Based on Aon Hewitt 2013 TCM survey, the all industry salary increase in China market is 8.5%, and only about 23.2% of the company established supplemental retirement plan. The new regulation may alleviate the situation of Cash is the King in China, and push employers to consider talent attraction and retention from total reward perspective. The adjusted EA plan looks more like a Chinese version of the 401(k) plan. Like all other qualified plans, EA carries restrictions on plan design and implementation - such as plan eligibility (must be open to all employees), compulsory employees contribution, plan features to be approved by union and local labor bureau, no benefits withdrawal before retirement, etc. Employers are advised to choose the appropriate supplemental retirement vehicles based on their rewards strategy and philosophy. The impact of total reward position to employees can be elaborated by following examples: 4
