(a) |
This category includes investments in actively managed
and indexed investment funds that invest in a diversified pool of
equity securities of companies located in the U.S., Canada, Western
Europe and other developed countries throughout the world. The
Level 1 funds are valued at fair market value obtained from quoted

the net asset value method in which an average of the market prices
for the underlying investments is used to value the fund.
|
(b) |
This category includes investments in investment funds
that invest in U.S. treasuries; other national, state and local
government bonds; and corporate bonds of highly rated companies
from diversified industries. The Level 1 funds are valued at fair
market value obtained from quoted market prices in active markets.
The Level 2 funds are valued using the net asset value method in
which an average of the market prices for the underlying
investments is used to value the fund.
|
(c) |
This category includes guaranteed insurance
contracts.

Benefits Expected to be Paid in Subsequent Years from Our Pension and Other Postretirement as Well as Medicare Subsidy Receipts |

plans, the anticipated benefits with respect to these plans will
come primarily from the trusts established for these plans.
