Section 16731.5
Status: in_force

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the committee may provide for the issuance of all or part of the bonds authorized to be issued as zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds. The committee shall adopt a resolution finding that issuance of these bonds is necessary and desirable, directing the Treasurer to arrange for preparation of the requisite number of suitable bonds, and specifying other provisions relating to the bonds including the following:

(1) The date, number, denominations, and aggregate par value of the bonds payable at maturity. The aggregate par value may be represented by bond certificates in denominations as the committee deems appropriate, but not less than twenty-five dollars ($25).

(2) The dates of maturity and the aggregate amounts of the bonds maturing on each of these dates. Determination of maturity dates and amounts by the committee shall be made upon recommendation of the Treasurer to provide the maximum benefit to potential purchasers and to respond to the expected demand for the bonds. Whenever the committee determines to issue bonds from any authorized bond act as zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds, and to issue bonds from the same authorization at the same time pursuant to Section 16731, the committee may comply with the requirements of subdivision (b) of Section 16731 by taking into account all the bonds of the same authorization being issued at the same time.

(3) The interest rate or rates, and interest payment dates applicable to the bonds. Zero coupon bonds may bear a zero rate of interest, and capital appreciation bonds may bear a stated rate of interest payable only at maturity, compounded at the same rate, which rate or rates may be determined at the time of sale of the bonds. The rate of interest borne by these bonds, or the nominal interest rate taking into account the original issue discount of these bonds, when bearing a zero interest rate, shall not exceed 11 percent per annum.

(4) Any provisions for the redemption of the bonds prior to their stated maturity.

(5) The technical form and language of the bonds.

(6) All other terms and conditions of the bonds and of their execution, issuance, and sale, deemed necessary and appropriate by the committee.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, when the committee determines to issue bonds as zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds, all of the following shall apply:

(1) The bonds may be sold at negotiated sale at a price below the par value in a manner consistent with paragraph (3) of subdivision (a). If the committee determines to issue other bonds authorized by the same bond act at the same time as zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds are issued, the other bonds may also be sold at negotiated sale with a discount of not more than 3 percent of the par amount thereof.

(2) For purposes of determining the principal amount of bonds of any voted authorization outstanding, in the case of any bonds which are zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds and do not provide for payment of interest on the bond prior to maturity, the principal amount of the bonds shall be the cash price paid by the initial purchasers of the bonds to the state, and deposited in the fund, plus the amount of any costs of issuance of the bonds. Within 30 days of the delivery of any zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds, the Treasurer shall submit to the committee a certificate stating the principal amount of bonds of each issue, calculated as stated in this subdivision, which have been sold, and the certification shall be conclusive for all purposes under this chapter and the constitution.

(3) The committee may arrange to utilize the services of investment banks, commercial banks, savings and loans or other financial institutions, or other advisers as it may deem appropriate to publicize and assist in the marketing and sale of zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds.

(c) When zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds are issued pursuant to this section, the debt service payments on the bonds should continue to be managed in a manner consistent with the state’s policy of retiring general obligation bonds in an orderly efficient manner. It is the expectation of the Legislature that the authority provided by this section will not be used to defer debt service payments as a means of preserving General Fund moneys for short-term purposes. The committee shall provide in the resolution authorizing the issuance of zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds that the state shall set aside, in a separate trust fund within the State Treasury, an amount in each year representing the amount of interest accrued during that year to be payable at the maturity of the bonds, with these payments to be deemed a payment of debt service on the bonds.

(a) A University of California employee, including an officer or faculty member, or applicant for employment may file a written complaint with his or her supervisor or manager, or with any other university officer designated for that purpose by the regents, alleging actual or attempted acts of reprisal, retaliation, threats, coercion, or similar improper acts for having made a protected disclosure, together with a sworn statement that the contents of the written complaint are true, or are believed by the affiant to be true, under penalty of perjury. The complaint shall be filed within 12 months of the most recent act of reprisal complained about.

(b) Any person who intentionally engages in acts of reprisal, retaliation, threats, coercion, or similar acts against a University of California employee, including an officer or faculty member, or applicant for employment for having made a protected disclosure, is subject to a fine not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000) and imprisonment in the county jail for up to a period of one year. Any university employee, including an officer or faculty member, who intentionally engages in that conduct shall also be subject to discipline by the university.

(c) In addition to all other penalties provided by law, any person who intentionally engages in acts of reprisal, retaliation, threats, coercion, or similar acts against a university employee, including an officer or faculty member, or applicant for employment for having made a protected disclosure shall be liable in an action for damages brought against him or her by the injured party. Punitive damages may be awarded by the court where the acts of the offending party are proven to be malicious. Where liability has been established, the injured party shall also be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees as provided by law.

Nothing in this section is intended to prohibit the injured party from seeking a remedy if the university has not satisfactorily addressed the complaint within 18 months.

(d) This section is not intended to prevent a manager or supervisor from taking, directing others to take, recommending, or approving any personnel action or from taking or failing to take a personnel action with respect to any university employee, including an officer or faculty member, or applicant for employment if the manager or supervisor reasonably believes any action or inaction is justified on the basis of evidence separate and apart from the fact that the person has made a protected disclosure.

(e) In any civil action or administrative proceeding, once it has been demonstrated by a preponderance of the evidence that an activity protected by this article was a contributing factor in the alleged retaliation against a former, current, or prospective employee, the burden of proof shall be on the supervisor, manager, or appointing power to demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that the alleged action would have occurred for legitimate, independent reasons even if the employee had not engaged in protected disclosures or refused an illegal order. If the supervisor, manager, or appointing power fails to meet this burden of proof in an adverse action against the employee in any administrative review, challenge, or adjudication in which retaliation has been demonstrated to be a contributing factor, the employee shall have a complete affirmative defense in the adverse action.

(f) Nothing in this article shall be deemed to diminish the rights, privileges, or remedies of any employee under any other federal or state law or under any employment contract or collective bargaining agreement.

(a) The board may, without compliance with any provisions of law relating to competitive bidding, contract with one or more vision care plans for annuitants and eligible family members, provided each vision care plan carrier has operated successfully in the area of vision care benefits for a reasonable period, as determined by the board.

(b) The board, as the program administrator, has full administrative authority over this program and associated funds and shall require the monthly premium to be paid by the annuitant for the vision care plan. The premium to be paid by the annuitant may be deducted from his or her monthly allowance. If the annuitant’s monthly allowance is insufficient to cover the full premium, the annuitant shall be responsible for paying the required balance directly to the vision care plan carrier.

(c) A vision care plan or plans provided under this authority shall be funded by the annuitant’s premium. All premiums received from annuitants shall be deposited in the Retired Public Employees Vision Care Program Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Any income earned on the moneys in the Retired Public Employees Vision Care Program Fund shall be credited to the fund. Notwithstanding Section 13340 of the Government Code, moneys in the fund are hereby continuously appropriated for the purposes specified in subdivision (d).

(d) The board shall have the exclusive control of the administration and investment of the Retired Public Employees Vision Care Program Fund.

(e) An annuitant may enroll in a vision care plan provided by a carrier that also provides a health benefit plan if the annuitant is also enrolled in the health benefit plan provided by that carrier. However, nothing in this section may be construed to require an annuitant to enroll in a vision care plan and a health benefit plan provided by the same carrier. An annuitant enrolled in this program shall only enroll in a vision plan or plans contracted for by the board.

(f) No contract for a vision care plan may be entered into unless the board determines it is reasonable to do so, and any contract shall take effect only if funds have been made available to cover the startup costs of the program. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any premium moneys paid into this program by annuitants for the purposes of the member vision care plan that is contracted for shall be used for the cost of providing vision care benefits to eligible, enrolled annuitants and their eligible and enrolled dependents, the payment of claims for those vision benefits, the cost of administration of the vision care plan or plans under this vision care program, and any reasonable cost or expense incurred by the board in connection with the startup of the program, those costs being determined by the board.

(g) If the board determines that it is not economically feasible to continue this program at any time after its commencement, the board may, upon written notice to enrollees and to the contracting plan or plans, terminate this program within a reasonable time. The notice of termination to the plan or plans shall be determined by the board. The notice to enrollees of the termination of the program shall commence no later than three months prior to the actual date of termination of the program.

(h) Premium rates for this program shall be determined by the board in conjunction with the contracted plan or plans and shall be considered separate from any active employee premium rates.
