              such assets shall remain in such Investment Fund until such time
              as the Member directs otherwise.

          E.  A Member may change his investment election with respect to

              established by the Benefits Committee in accordance with the
              requirements of Section 404(c) of ERISA.

8.  Effective January 1, 1995, Section 5.6 is deleted. Existing Sections 5.7
through 5.9 are renumbered accordingly and all references to Section 5.6 are
