2.393 (p) defines normal retirement date as when a participant reaches age 55 and has
completed twenty years of credited service or when the participant has completed thirty
years of credited service regardless of age. Mr. Brinson is eligible under either criteria.

formula for computing regular pensions, and Mr. Brinson's selection of the 50% Joint &
Survivor Annuity, this pension will approximate $37,885 annually. Charts from Finance

financing" this pension will be approximately $478,340. The estimated pension cost (cash
