The third sentence of Section 6.4 of the MIPRP is hereby amended to read in its entirety as:

"The amount of such hypothetical retirement benefit shall equal the Participant's Vested Accrued Benefit as of his Retirement or Vested Separation date, reduced, for the period by which the first payment of the death benefit  precedes  the  Participant's   Normal  Retirement  Date,  by 5/9ths of one percent (1%) for each of the first sixty (60) calendar months, 5/18ths  of  one  percent (1%)  for  each  of  the next  sixty  (60)  calendar months and actuarially thereafter (using the assumptions for Actuarial Equivalence), adjusted, as applicable, to take into account the form of payment of such Participant's Retirement Benefit under Section 4.5 of this Program, without regard to the Participant's  election, if any, pursuant to Section 4.5."
