Such a claimant is entitled to review

pertinent Plan documents and submit written issues and comments to the Committee. The Committee, within a reasonable time after it receives a request for review, will furnish the claimant with written notice of its decision, setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based.
