155                <p>The Pension Plan is a traditional “defined benefit” plan. It is designed for employees who want a guaranteed monthly retirement benef
155it and who are not comfortable with choosing investments and managing their own portfolio.</p>
156
157                <p>In this type of plan, you receive a guaranteed benefit that is based on a formula. This formula uses your salary, length of service, and other factors. While both you and your employer will contribute money to help fund the Pension Plan,
158                    you will not own an account or manage any investments. When you are eligible to begin receiving your benefit at retirement, it will be paid to you in monthly installments for the rest of your life. Options to continue payments to a qualified 
159                    beneficiary after your death may also be available. You can designate any person, organization, trust, or your estate as your beneficiary. </p>
