Note: During <strong>the</strong> production process, an incorrect cross-reference <strong>was</strong> inadvertently<br />

introduced into paragraph 134 of Statement 68, which addresses circumstances in<br />

which a nonemployer entity’s legal obligation for contributions directly to a defined<br />

contribution plan does not meet <strong>the</strong> definition of a special funding situation. In<br />

paragraph 134, <strong>the</strong> cross-reference should be to paragraphs 127 and 128. The<br />

document now available for download (as of August 6, 2012) and <strong>the</strong> soon to be<br />

released printed document include <strong>the</strong> correct cross-reference.<br />
