Important change to your Annuity Plan concerning your eligibility for a hardship withdrawal.  


Dear Participant:


The following is an important change that has been made to your Local 1 38, I 38A, 138B

and I38C, I.U.O.E. Annuity Plan concerning your eligibility for a hardship withdrawal.

 
         Effective July 1, 2008, Section 9.2 of the Annuity Plan is amended as follows:


         Section 9.2 Except in the case of medical expenses incurred totaling $1 ,000 or

         above that are consistent with the terms under section 9.1(a), or with respect to the

         need to pay tuition expenses consistent with the terms under 9.1(b), a hardship

         withdrawal may be granted to a participant only one time per eighteen (18)

         consecutive months.


        The amount of the hardship withdrawal may include Federal, State and Local income

         taxes, as well as early distribution penalties.


        For purposes of this Article, dependent child means any child or grandchild claimed

        as a dependent on a Participant’s individual tax return.


        This new provision is intended to modify Section 9.2 of the Annuity Plan.


        If you have any questions concerning the changes stated above, please contact the

        Fund office for assistance.


Sincerely,


Trustees of the Local 138, 138A, 138B and 138C,

To: All Local 138 Annuity Fund Participants.

Re: Local 138 Annuity Fund Self Directed Program.

 

        The Local 138 Annuity Fund Board of Trustees is continuously monitoring the

investment options offered within the self directed program. Therefore the Board has

 implemented several changed to the Program. These changes will take effect

 August 1,  2006.

        As of that time Prudential will no longer be the record keeper on the plan.

 NY Life will replace Prudential and this transition will be transparent to all those

 members that participate. The move will allow the Fund to offer a greater variety of

 investment options as well as some increased technology that the Board feels will

 benefit the membership in the long run.

        If you should need additional information regarding these new options, or you are

thinking about enrolling in the program for the first time, please contact the Fund

Advisor, David Barnett @ (516)227-2920 or (800)645-8600.
