1. All pensions or annuities or retirement, disability, death, or other benefits paid or
payable by, or amounts received as a return of contributions and interest from, a
retirement system established pursuant to state law by the state except as provided by

actuarial analysis to determine the current value of the amounts that are payable to the
debtor.

3. All payments of assistance as aid to dependent children pursuant to chapter 50-09.
