Service Representatives
Need help?
Don't have a Touch-tone phone? Have a question about VRS? Calling from outside
the U.S.?
The DPS Plan Service Center is staffed by trained Service Representatives who
can help.
Here's How VRS Works
Step 1: Call 1-800-872-3777 from
a Touch-tone phone.
Step 2: After a greeting, VRS asks for your Social Security Number and Personal
Identification Number (PIN).
After confirming your PIN, VRS gives you the total market value of your DPS Plan
account.
Important: Your PIN will not be activated for use in personal account inquiries
or transactions if you haven't returned your signed Transaction Authorization
Card (TAC). See "Personal Identification Number (PIN)" on page 21 for more
information.
VRS Guides You Step-by-Step
VRS guides you through a menu of options you can choose from.
The "Main Menu" presents your first level of choice. Once you make that
selection, VRS then offers you additional choices.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your PIN Won't Work without a TAC.
Having a problem accessing your DPS Plan account information or performing a
transaction?
Perhaps your Personal Identification Number (PIN) has not been activated.
The DPS Plan Service Center can activate your PIN only after receiving your
signed Transaction Authorization Card (TAC).
[GRAPHIC - Hand writing with pen with arrow pointing to mail]

NEW DPS PLAN SERVICE CENTER
Overseas Employees
In most countries outside the U.S., Touch-tone and toll-free "800" phone
services and technologies are not available.
However, if you are outside the U.S., you can still take full advantage of all
these improved services by calling the DPS Plan Service Center at 615-835-3013,
collect, during the hours Service Representatives are available.
Your call will be directed to a Service Representative who will assist you,
allowing you to make all account inquiries and DPS Plan transactions.

Representative.
So, when you get your TAC, be sure to sign it and return it as soon as possible.

ACCOUNT BALANCE INFORMATION
What You Hear First:
Market Value of Your DPS Plan Account
VRS makes it easy to check the value of your account.
After you enter your Social Security Number and your PIN, VRS immediately gives
you two important pieces of information:
1. The Valuation Date, and
2. The total market value of your account.
The Valuation Date tells you the last date that your DPS Plan records were
valued -- usually the preceding business day.
The total market value combines your Company and Personal Accounts as of the
Valuation Date, not including any outstanding loan balances.
If you want a more detailed breakdown of the market value of any or all of your
DPS Plan accounts, you can use VRS to get that information, too.
[GRAPHIC - Telephone keypad]
VRS Tips
To get account balance information:
Main Menu

1 Account Balance Information
VRS will provide account balance information for any of the following that may
apply --
. Before-tax Account;
. After-tax Account;
. Company Account;
. ESOP Rollover Account; and
. Rollover Account.
This information will be useful if you want to transfer current account balances
or to change direction of investment for future contributions.

CONTRIBUTIONS
Plan Facts
Personal Contributions
Generally, you can contribute up to 8% of your eligible compensation (base pay
plus overtime) on a before-tax or after-tax basis, or a combination of both.
Before-tax contributions are deducted from your paycheck before federal taxes
are withheld; after-tax contributions are deducted after taxes are withheld.
Your contributions can total no more than 8% of pay and no more than $9,240 (in
1995) in before-tax contributions. This dollar limit is subject to change by the
IRS in future years.
A notice stating the IRS dollar limit for the year will be distributed to all
employees. If you reach this limit during the course of a year, your before-tax
contributions will automatically be stopped for the remainder of the year.
If you pay your medical and dental premiums on a before-tax basis, your total
DPS Plan before-tax contributions are limited to 7%. They will be further
limited if you participate in the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account.
Changing Your Current Personal Contribution Rates
You may change your personal contribution rates as often as you like. You may
also stop your contributions at any time.
However, any contribution rate change you make will become effective in the next
possible pay period.
Company Contributions
Each year the Company contributes to each eligible plan participant's Company
Account an amount based on each operating company's earnings. You can invest
these contributions in any of the funds available under the Plan.
If you don't make personal contributions, you still may maintain a balance in
the Company Account.
ESOP Rollover Account
The ESOP Rollover Account reflects amounts that have been transferred for former
participants in the Philip Morris Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
7
<PAGE>
CONTRIBUTIONS
Rollover Contributions
The Rollover Account reflects amounts you may have "rolled over" from a previous
employer's qualified retirement plan or a conduit Individual Retirement Account
(IRA). Rollover contributions maintain their tax-deferred treatment.
Rollover contributions may only be made by money order, cashier's check or a
check from your prior plan.
Lump-Sum/Catch-up Contributions
If you have not always contributed the maximum amount of after-tax dollars
allowed under the DPS Plan, you may be able to "catch-up" on contributions you
did not make in the current or previous years. If you are interested
in this option, Press 0 and speak to a Service Representative.
[GRAPHIC - Telephone keypad]
VRS Tips
To get your current personal contribution rates:
Main Menu
1 Account Information and Transactions
2 Personal Contribution Rates and Direction of Investment for
Future Contributions
VRS will tell you how much you are contributing to each Personal Account -- one
account for contributions you make "before taxes" and another for those you make
"after taxes."
Then you can --
. Change your personal contribution rates;
. Stop all personal contributions;
. Start personal contributions to the DPS Plan; or
. Change direction of investment for future contributions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hold On! Be Sure You Get a Confirmation Number!
When you call VRS to request a transaction, it's important to wait until VRS
gives you a confirmation number.
The confirmation number verifies that your transaction was completed and
accepted. If you hang up before you get it, your transaction may be cancelled.
Write down your confirmation number in case you have any questions later about
your transaction. A written confirmation of your transaction will also be sent
within 10 days to your home address.
Don't forget: When you finish -- WAIT for that confirmation number.

DIRECTION OF INVESTMENT FOR
FUTURE CONTRIBUTIONS
Plan Facts
Direction of Investment
Direction of investment for future contributions can be made for the Before-tax,
After-tax, Company and Rollover Accounts. VRS will prompt you for your direction
of investment elections.
Direction of investment for future contributions can be made in increments of 1%
and must total 100%.
If you do not pick a direction of investment for an account, all of your
contributions to that account will be invested in the U.S. Government
Obligations Fund.
Change Your Direction of Investment
You may change the direction of investment for your future contributions and
loan repayments as often as you like.
Your contributions and loan repayments will be invested based on the direction
of investment on file as of 2 PM, Eastern Time, on the day the money is credited
to your account.
Your personal contributions and loan repayments will continue to be credited to
your account on a monthly basis.
Important: Changing direction of investment for future contributions does not
move any current account balance into another fund. If you wish to do that, see
"Transfer of Current Fund Balances."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make Sure DPS Plan Mailings Reach You -- Let Us Know When You Move
The DPS Plan Service Center makes it easy for you to reach your account. But
that does not mean anything if the DPS Plan cannot reach you.
Your Statement of Account, your written confirmation of transactions, and your
requests for printed information are all mailed to your home address of record.
But these important communications cannot reach you if your address is not up-
to-date.
If you move, be sure to stop by your local Benefits Office and fill out a Change
of Address form.

DIRECTION OF INVESTMENT FOR
FUTURE CONTRIBUTIONS
What is a "Change in Direction of Investment"?
The following example shows how John Doe used VRS to change his direction of
investment.
Example
VRS tells John that he is currently contributing 5% of pay (currently $100 a
month) before taxes to the DPS Plan through payroll deductions as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Fund
<S> <C> <C>
U.S. Gov't Obligations 0% $ 0
Equity Index 30% 30
Interest Income 50% 50
Philip Morris Stock 20% 20
---- ----
Total 100% $100
</TABLE>
To invest some of his future contributions in the new funds, John calls VRS
which prompts him to enter his new direction of investment percentages from 0%
to 100%.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Fund
<S> <C> <C>
U.S. Gov't Obligations 0% $ 0

Interest Income 35% 35
Philip Morris Stock 10% 10
Balanced 40% 40
International Equity 7% 7
Growth Equity 8% 8
---- ----
Total 100% $100
</TABLE>
Your direction of investment must total 100% for each account.

VRS Tips
To change your direction of investment for future contributions:
Main Menu
1 Account Information and Transactions
2 Personal Contribution Rates and Direction of Investment for
Future Contributions
VRS will tell you into which of the DPS Plan's investment options your current
contributions are directed.
Then, if you want to change your direction of investment for future
contributions, VRS will lead you step-by-step through the process.
When you finish, always wait for your confirmation number.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: While you can use VRS to change your direction of investment after June 1,
1995, the three new investment funds will not be available until
July 10, 1995.

TRANSFER OF CURRENT FUND BALANCES
Plan Facts
Transfer of Current Fund Balances
You can request transfers of your current DPS Plan fund balances in increments
of 1% (as long as they total 100%). You are not limited in the number of
transfers you can make in a year.
Philip Morris reserves the right to limit the number of transfers in the future
should participants' use of this feature become excessive.
Important: Transferring a current balance from one investment fund to another
does not affect the direction of investment for future contributions you make.
See "Direction of Investment for Future Contributions."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Timing of Transactions
Direction of Investment for Future Contributions
Changes in your direction of investment for future contributions completed prior
to 2 PM, Eastern Time, on a day when stocks are traded on the New York Stock
Exchange are processed that day and are effective when the money is credited to
your account. Future contributions refer to any future contributions made on a
before-tax or after-tax basis, the Company contribution or any future rollover
contribution.
Transfer of Current Fund Balances
Any transfers of current account balances between funds completed prior to 2 PM,
Eastern Time, on a day when stocks are traded on the New York Stock Exchange
will be valued as of that day. If your call is completed after 2 PM, Eastern
Time, the transfer of monies will not be effective until the next business day.
Loans, Withdrawals and Distributions
Loan, withdrawal and distribution transactions can be requested daily using VRS.
However, the transaction is pended (that is, not processed) until the last
business day of the week. Therefore, if you request a loan on a Wednesday, the
transaction will be processed that Friday and a loan check will be released the
following week. You have until 2 PM, Eastern Time, on the last business day of
the week (generally Friday) to complete your loan request in order to receive a
check for the next week.

TRANSFER OF CURRENT FUND BALANCES
What Does "Transfer of Current Fund Balances" Mean?
The following example shows how Jane Doe used VRS to transfer her current fund
balances.
Example
VRS tells Jane that she currently has a Before-tax Account invested as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

U.S. Gov't Obligations $15,757
Equity Index 21,252
Interest Income 15,351
Philip Morris Stock 0
-------
Total $52,360
</TABLE>
Now, Jane decides to invest her current Before-tax Account in some of the new
funds. VRS prompts her and she enters the new investment percentage for each
fund from 0% to 100%, resulting in the following investment mix.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

VRS Tips
To transfer current fund balances:
Main Menu
1 Account Information and Transactions
3 Transfer of Current Fund Balances
VRS can transfer all your current account balances into the same fund(s) or
transfer each account (Before-tax, After-tax, Company, etc.) balance into any
fund(s) you choose.
This enables you to select different investment mixes by account. VRS will ask
you to enter the percentage(s) you want transferred into each fund.
You may transfer your current account balances as often as you like. Transfer
requests made before 2 PM, Eastern Time, will be valued at the end of each day
when stocks are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
When you finish, always wait for your confirmation number.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: While you can use VRS to transfer your current fund balances after June 1,
1995, the three new investment funds will not be available until July 10, 1995.

LOANS
Plan Facts
In General
The DPS Plan loan feature allows you to access a portion of your account balance
while you continue to save.
You may borrow from your DPS Plan account in the following amounts:
Minimum loan amount: $1,000. Maximum loan amount is the lesser of:
. One-half of your account balance at the time of your new loan
request; or
. $50,000 less your highest total outstanding loan balance during the
12-month period preceding your new loan request.
The interest rate is based on the prime rate as published in The Wall Street
Journal. The rate is adjusted quarterly, or more frequently when the prime rate
changes by more than 1/2%. However, it is fixed for the term of the loan.
If you have a loan outstanding you may continue to contribute to the Plan.
Spousal consent is no longer required when you apply for a loan.
The DPS Plan allows only two loans outstanding at a time.
You may have one General Purpose loan and one Home Purchase loan outstanding at
the same time. However, six months must pass from the time you take your first
loan until you take your second loan.
VRS will tell you how much is available for a loan based on your account
balance. Then it leads you step-by-step through the loan application process.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the Loan that Works Best for YOU.
VRS lets you "try out" a loan amount and payment terms that best meet your
financial needs -- before you actually accept the loan.
As you complete your loan request, VRS will tell you what your monthly payments
will be, based on the loan amount, the repayment period you select and the
current interest rate.
Then, VRS offers you the choice of accepting, changing or cancelling your loan
request. If you want to change your request, you can enter a new loan amount or
a new loan period. VRS will then calculate your new monthly payments.
Caution: Once you "accept" your General Purpose loan request on VRS, you cannot
change or cancel the loan. So act wisely.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13
<PAGE>
LOANS
General Purpose Loans
With VRS, you complete your General Purpose loan application directly on the
phone. The repayment period for these loans is from two to five years. VRS will
process your loan and send a check to your home address.
Home Purchase Loans
A Home Purchase loan must be used for the purchase of a primary residence. The
repayment period for these loans is from two to 25 years.
To receive a Home Purchase loan, you must provide current documentation to
verify the estimated cost of your residence. Upon request, VRS will mail the
necessary paperwork to your home with complete instructions.
Documentation must be completed within 30 days from the date of your loan
request or your request will be cancelled. You will receive a check after
completing all the necessary documentation.
Your loan request will be approved or denied within three business
days following review of your documentation. You will be notified in writing of
this decision.
Based on the current interest rate, you may apply to recalculate the payments on
a Home Purchase loan once it has been outstanding for five years.
Repayment of Loans
When you take a loan as an active employee, you repay your loan through
automatic payroll deductions. As you repay your loan, your principal and
interest will be credited to the various investment funds based on your most
recent direction of investments. In effect, you are repaying the loan, principal
and interest, to yourself.
If you miss a partial repayment, you must call the DPS Plan Service Center to
get a loan coupon for this repayment. If you miss a full repayment, a loan
coupon will be automatically sent to you.
Similarly, if you are repaying a loan and go on a leave of absence without pay,
or transfer to a non-participating company, you will be sent a coupon booklet to
your home address on file within 10 business days for continued repayment of
your loan.
Each month you must mail your loan coupon with your repayment to the DPS Plan
Service Center. Mailing labels will be provided.
14
<PAGE>
LOANS
Defaulting on Loans
If you miss three full monthly payments your loan will default and you will be
ineligible for future loans.
Caution: Defaulting on a loan also means that the unpaid balance will be treated
as a taxable distribution and you will be responsible for paying all income tax
amounts and, if you are under age 59 1/2, applicable tax penalties.
Prepayment of Loans
The VRS allows you to prepay a loan quickly and easily. Once your loan has been
outstanding for 12 or more months, you may prepay your loan in full at any time.
If you separate from service or retire, the entire balance remaining must be
paid in order to prevent it from becoming taxable income.
To request prepayment of a loan, you must speak to a Service Representative who
will send you a coupon. No prepayment will be accepted without a loan coupon.
Note: When you make a prepayment, one last monthly repayment will be taken. Only
after that final repayment is credited to your DPS Plan account (usually the
following month) will the loan be considered closed. You can then apply for a
new loan.
[GRAPHIC - Telephone keypad]
VRS Tips
To request a loan:
Main Menu
1 Account Information and Transactions
4 Loans
VRS will help you --
. Check your outstanding loan balance(s);
. Verify information such as principal balance outstanding and the
number of payments remaining; and
. Find out how to prepay your loan.
If you are eligible, you can apply for a new loan. VRS will --
. Give the current interest rate on loans;
. Explain repayment terms; and
. Summarize loan rules.
You must use the VRS for all new loan applications, since Benefits Offices will
not accept loan applications.
When you finish, always wait for your confirmation number.

WITHDRAWALS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Plan Facts
In General
Although the DPS Plan is designed to encourage savings for retirement,
withdrawals or distributions may be available under a variety of circumstances.
Withdrawals or distributions from your DPS Plan account may be subject to tax
withholdings and tax penalties. The IRS requires a 20% federal tax withholding
(and applicable state tax withholding) on any taxable portion of a withdrawal
or distribution, unless it is directly rolled over to an IRA, another qualified
plan or paid over a period of at least 10 years.
If you are an active employee under age 59 1/2 and take a withdrawal, the
taxable portion may also be subject to a 10% penalty tax.
Also, if you take a distribution and you are a terminated employee under age
59 1/2, or retired under age 55, the taxable portion will be subject to a 10%
penalty tax.
If you have a loan, the amount available for a withdrawal may be limited due to
the DPS Plan's requirement to collateralize your loan.
There are several types of withdrawals available to active employees.
After-tax Withdrawal
There are two types of after-tax withdrawals:
. A non-taxable after-tax withdrawal, which may be taken if you made
after-tax contributions to the DPS Plan prior to 1987 and have not
yet withdrawn all of these contributions.
. An after-tax withdrawal including taxable earnings, which may be
taken if you made after-tax contributions or a rollover contribution
to the DPS Plan at any time. The taxable portion of the withdrawal
will be subject to a mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding and
may also be subject to a 10% penalty tax and applicable state tax
withholding.

WITHDRAWALS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Hardship Withdrawal
The IRS has strict guidelines regarding the withdrawal of before-tax and Company
contributions. The DPS Plan allows active employees to withdraw certain monies
only if they are over age 59 1/2 or are experiencing a financial hardship as
defined by the Plan.
Taxable portions of Hardship withdrawals are subject to mandatory 20% federal
income tax withholding and may be subject to a 10% penalty tax and applicable
state tax withholding.
Certain Hardship withdrawals will also result in a suspension of all personal
before-tax contributions to the Plan for a period of 12 months.
Partial Withdrawal
A partial withdrawal from your account may be taken if you are age 59 1/2 or
older, you have been a participant in the DPS Plan for less than five years, and
you have made personal contributions to the DPS Plan. The taxable portion of the
withdrawal will be subject to a mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding
unless you directly roll over the distribution into an IRA or other qualified
retirement plan.
Full Withdrawal
You may make a full withdrawal from your account if you are age 59 1/2 or older
and have been a participant in the DPS Plan for five or more years. The taxable
portion of the withdrawal will be subject to a mandatory 20% federal income tax
withholding unless you directly roll over the distribution into an IRA or other
qualified retirement plan.

Need Money From Your Account?
A loan --
. Provides you a way to use a part of your DPS Plan savings while you
continue to save for retirement;
. Lets you avoid making a withdrawal, which can deplete your retirement
savings; and
. Helps you avoid the additional taxes and tax penalties that might
come with a withdrawal or distribution.
In effect, a DPS Plan loan allows you to borrow from yourself.
With a DPS Plan loan, the repayments you make -- both principal and interest --
are credited back to your DPS Plan account.
And with a loan, you can continue to contribute to your account.
So, if you need access to your DPS Plan funds, think about a loan.

WITHDRAWALS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Distributions
You may elect to receive a lump-sum distribution of the value of all your DPS
Plan balances if you retire or separate from service.
Any outstanding loan balance that exists at the time you separate from service
will be treated as taxable income unless you elect to prepay the balance within
six months of your separation date.
You may elect to take the money invested in the Philip Morris Stock Fund in cash
or in Philip Morris common stock.
If your DPS Plan balance is less than $3,500 when you separate from service and
you do not make a distribution election within six months, you will
automatically receive a final lump-sum distribution representing the entire
amount of your DPS Plan account.
If your DPS Plan balance is equal to or greater than $3,500 when you separate
from service, you may elect to receive a full distribution of your balance or,
instead, you may leave your balance in the Plan until April 1st following the
year in which you reach age 70 1/2. If you leave your balances in the Plan upon
separation, you may elect at any time to take a full or partial distribution of
your DPS Plan account balance.
You may elect to have all or any portion of the taxable distribution paid
directly to you or directly rolled over to another qualified retirement plan or
IRA.
If you retire or separate from service, installment payments may be available to
you. You may elect to receive installments quarterly, semi-annually or annually.
And, at any time, you may elect to take any remaining balance left in your
account.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Retiring or Terminating? You Can Defer Your Payment Election.
When you retire or terminate your employment with the company, you no longer
have to decide how you want your DPS Plan account paid to you when you leave.
Instead, if your account balance is $3,500 or more, you can wait to make your
decision.
When you decide you want a distribution, a rollover to an IRA or installment
payments, simply call VRS to make your election any time before age 70 1/2
that's good for you!

WITHDRAWALS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
In the event of your death, your designated beneficiary will receive information

if you are still employed.

PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (PIN)
Your PIN is Important
You need a valid Personal Identification Number (PIN) to make account inquiries
or perform DPS Plan transactions.
VRS uses the combination of your Social Security Number and your activated PIN
to verify that you are the person who owns the account.
If you do not return your signed Transaction Authorization Card (TAC), your PIN
will not be activated, and you will have only limited access to some general
information.
With your activated PIN, you can use the full range of VRS services.
Important: Your PIN won't be activated if you haven't returned your signed TAC.
See "Your PIN Won't Work without a TAC" on page 2.
Computer Generates Your PIN
To protect your privacy, your original PIN was randomly generated by the DPS
Plan Service Center computer and then mailed directly to you.
As a result, no one at Philip Morris (or anywhere else) knows your PIN. Only YOU
can use it to retrieve your account information.
[GRAPHIC - Telephone keypad]
VRS Tips
To change your PIN:

3 PIN Code Change
VRS will lead you through the steps to change your PIN to another four-digit
number using the phone.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep it Confidential! Protect Your Privacy -- Don't Give Out Your PIN.
Your Personal Identification Number (PIN) protects your privacy and keeps your
account information secure.
No one at Philip Morris or at the DPS Plan Service Center knows your PIN. The
only one who knows your PIN is YOU.
Keep your PIN confidential so that no one else has access to it. File your PIN
Card in a secure place.
If you need to change your PIN, call VRS at 1-800-872-3777 and press 3 ("PIN
Code Change") at the "Main Menu." VRS will help you change your PIN on the
phone.
If you forget your PIN or can't locate your PIN Card, call 1-800-872-3777 and
follow the VRS instructions for a lost PIN.
But since DPS Plan Service Representatives don't know your PIN, you must wait
until you receive your new PIN Card in the mail before requesting account
transactions.

YOUR DPS PLAN INVESTMENT OPTIONS
When making investment decisions, you should consider the fund's risk profile
which is made up of short-term and long-term risk. Short-term risk measures the
potential decrease in the value of your investment. Long-term risk measures the
fund's performance against inflation.

INVESTMENT GUIDE
A Supplement to Your DPS Plan Handbook
What's the key to good investing?
Knowing when to sell?
Knowing which investments to buy or sell?
The key is diversification, or the spreading of your money among several
different types of investments to create an asset mix.
Studies show that investment mix is the single biggest factor in determining the
overall success of your investment program.
The DPS Plan and its investment options are designed to make saving and
investing for your retirement effective and easy.
Step 1:
Determine Your Mix
The DPS Plan offers you several types of investment funds for creating your mix.
The building blocks of these funds are Bond/Fixed Income investments and
Equities (stocks).
Bond/Fixed Income investments seek steady earnings with relatively small changes
in value. They generally do not outperform inflation.
Equities seek higher returns and have generally outperformed inflation over the
long run. However, Equities involve more price fluctuations and risk of loss,
particularly over the short term.
You can build an investment mix of Bond/Fixed Income investments and Equities
that will be conservative, aggressive or somewhere in between, depending on
what's right for you.
Time
The biggest consideration in selecting your mix is your time frame -- the amount
of time you have until you need your money.
In general, the more time you have, the more aggressive your mix can be.
Why? Because you probably have the time to assume more short-term risk (that is,
fluctuations in the value of your investments) to achieve potentially higher
long-term returns.
On the other hand, the less time you have until you need your money, the more
conservative your mix should probably be.
26
<PAGE>
INVESTMENT GUIDE
Risk
Once you have determined an appropriate mix based on your time frame, consider
your tolerance for risk.
Remember, you should consider the fund's short-term risk (that is, the
variability in the value of your investments) against the fund's long-term risk
(that is, the risk that the fund's performance will not keep pace with
inflation).
If your time frame leads you to a mix with more risk than you are comfortable
taking, you might choose a more conservative mix.
But before you do, be sure to consider the trade-off you are making between
higher return potential on the one hand and greater stability on the other.
You don't want to run too much of a risk of falling short of your retirement
goal, either.
Step 2:
Select YOUR Funds
Based on your time frame and your risk tolerance, consider the sample investment
approaches on the following page.
These samples are intended only to serve as guides to helping you create an
investment mix that meets your personal situation.

Step 3:
Put Your Plan into Action
Once you determine your investment mix and choose your investment funds, you
need to apply the strategies to your DPS Plan account.
First, you will want to change your direction of investment for future
contributions from this point forward.
Then, you should consider gradually transferring your current fund balances to
match your investment mix.
You can do both transactions -- change direction of investment for future
contributions and transfer current fund balances -- through VRS.
Be sure to reexamine your mix of investments regularly -- at least once a year -
- or as your investments grow and your personal financial situation changes.
