  7. Section 4.01, Restoration of Pension Plan Benefits, is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

“4.01 Restoration of Pension Plan Benefits. In respect of each Participants who participates or participated in the Pension Plan, the Corporation shall pay to the Participant, without requirement for Participant contribution at the times set forth in Section 4.04 of the Plan and in no event earlier than the Participant’s Separation from Service, a Defined Benefit Restoration determined based on relevant factors and facts existing, as applicable, on or prior to the Freeze Date equal to the difference between (a) and (b):
