deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 302 of ERISA or
Section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived, has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur, (3) the fair market value of the
assets under each Plan exceeds the present value of all benefits

to fund such Plan) and (4) neither the Company or any member of its

Plan or premiums to the PBGC in the ordinary course and without

plan”, within the meaning of Section 4001(c)(3) of ERISA);
and (iii) each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section
401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred,
whether by action or by failure to act, which would cause the loss
of such qualification.
