1. Description of the Plan

The following description of Reliv International, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions. The Plan was amended and restated on January 1, 2016.

General

The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all eligible employees of Reliv International, Inc. (the Company) who have completed one year of service and have attained the age of 21. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended. The Plan’s asset custodian is Charles Schwab Bank.

Contributions

Each year participants may contribute from 1% to 50% of eligible compensation, as defined in the Plan agreement. The Plan provides for discretionary matching contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company contributed 10% of the first 15% of the participant’s eligible compensation contributed. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. All contributions are subject to applicable Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limitations.

Upon enrollment, a participant may direct their contributions and any allocated Company contributions to any of the Plan’s investment options, which include Company common stock, various mutual funds, and various collective investment trusts. All investments are participant directed.

Vesting and Forfeitures

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company’s matching contributions plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service, as defined in the Plan agreement. A participant vests 20% per year starting with his or her second year of service and is fully vested after six years of continuous service.

Forfeitures arising from non-vested accounts at the time of termination are used to reduce future Company contributions to the Plan. Forfeited amounts available for future use were $962 and $3,975 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Forfeitures of $6,210 and $-0- were used to offset Company contributions during the years ended December 31, 2017 or 2016.

Participant Accounts

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions, the Company’s matching contribution and allocations of Plan earnings and administrative expenses, if applicable. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan agreement. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the vested portion of the participant’s account.

Participant Notes Receivables

Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan terms range from 1 year to 5 years or up to 30 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans outstanding at December 31, 2017 mature between 2018 and 2035. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants’ accounts and bear interest at rates ranging from 4.25% to 8.25%, commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions. Terminated employees may pay off their loan in full at time of separation or they may receive a deemed distribution.

Payment of Benefits

Upon termination of service or attainment of Normal Retirement Age, as defined in the Plan agreement, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant’s vested interest in his or her account, annual installments, or if applicable to the participant’s account balance, a distribution of Company common stock.

Participants may also take in-service distributions upon reaching Normal Retirement Age or experiencing a qualifying financial hardship, as defined in the Plan agreement.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Administrative Expenses

Expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company, except for financial advisory fees and participant loan initiation and record-keeping fees, which are charged to the applicable participants.

Participant Notes Receivable

Participant notes receivable are measured at the unpaid principal balance plus accrued but unpaid interest. Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the Plan agreement.

Fair Value

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , as amended. FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. An asset’s or liability’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and other observable inputs. In some cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. In addition, the disclosed fair value may not be realized in the immediate settlement of the financial asset and these values do not represent any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time an entire holding of a particular financial asset. Potential taxes and other expenses that would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement are not reflected in the amounts disclosed.

Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value as determined by Charles Schwab Bank, the Custodian. The shares of the Company’s common stock are valued at the closing price as quoted on the NASDAQ Global Select Market for the last business day of the year. Shares in mutual funds are valued at net asset value (NAV) based on the closing price for the last business day of the year.

Target Date Funds: The Plan invests in collective investment trust funds in which the primary objective is to approximate the risk and return of a custom benchmark comprised of various industry published equity, fixed income, commodity, and inflation investment return indexes, as adjusted for target retirement dates associated with each particular fund. Accordingly, the funds may invest in a variety of asset classes, including, but not limited to, domestic and international equity, global real estate, commodities, intermediate-term bond, inflation-protected bond (U.S. TIPS) and cash equivalents.

Stable Value Fund: The Plan invests in the Federated Capital Preservation Fund (FCPF); a collective investment trust. The investment objective of FCPF is stability of principal and high current income.

Diversified Allocation Funds: The Plan invested in collective investment trust funds (the Inceptus funds) in which the primary objective of the various funds was to offer an investor investment “risk” ranging from conservative to aggressive. The Inceptus funds, as a group, sought to offer a varying degree of principal preservation, reduced volatility, and opportunity for growth. Each fund focused on asset allocation as the driver of its long-term performance and utilized a combination of mutual funds, exchange traded funds, and other pooled funds as the underlying investments. The Plan discontinued investing in the Inceptus funds during 2016.

The fair value of the Plan’s interest in the each of the Stable Value, Target Date, and Diversified Allocation funds is valued at NAV based on information reported by the issuer of the fund at year end. The NAV is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient is not used when it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV. Participant transactions (purchases and sales) may occur daily.

Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.

Excess Contributions Payable

Amounts payable to participants for contributions in excess of amounts allowed by the IRS are recorded as a liability with a corresponding reduction to contributions. Excess employee contributions of $3,031 relating to plan year 2017 were payable at December 31, 2017 and were paid in 2018. There were no excess contributions relating to plan year 2016.

5 . Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

6 . Income Tax Status

The underlying nonstandardized prototype plan has received an opinion letter from the IRS dated March 31, 2014, stating that the form of the prototype plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and therefore, the related trust is tax-exempt. In accordance with Revenue Procedures 2008-6 and 2005-16, the Plan sponsor has determined that it is eligible to and has chosen to rely on the current IRS prototype plan opinion letter. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan has been amended since the date of the opinion letter; however, the Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax-exempt.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require Plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2017, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan Administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2014.

7 . Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
