*Grandfathering Provisions    for Plan C Special Service Pension:

Participants who have satisfied the existing eligibility requirements for a Plan C Special Service Pension with respect to contribution rate, age and contributory pension credit as of the Cut-Off Date will always be eligible to retire on a Plan C Special Service Pension. This grandfathering provision allows an eligible participant to move up to higher benefit payments under the existing Plan C schedule based on future pension credit and age. 

The Cut-Off Date is September 30, 2003. However, a contract in effect on September 30, 2003 will qualify under the old rules through its expiration date with respect to contribution rate, age and contributory pension credit. 

A participant who does not satisfy the existing eligibility requirements for a Plan C Special Service Pension as of the Cut-Off Date may only become eligible to a Plan C Special Service Pension by meeting the revised eligibility requirements that were adopted on October 1, 2002.
