This excerpt taken from the GIS DEF 14A filed Aug 10, 2009. Health
Benefits
The named executive officers currently are covered under an
executive insurance plan which provides them, as well as their
spouses and dependents, with medical and dental coverage. Upon
retirement, under current plan provisions, named executive
officers, their spouses and eligible dependents can continue
coverage. Named executive officers whose age plus years of
service equal at least 70 receive a continuation of this
benefit, provided that they pay for coverage until age 65.
Access to these medical benefits continues for the spouses and
Table of Contents
dependents after the named executive officers death. If a
named executive officer is involuntarily terminated or
terminated in connection with a change of control, and is not
retirement eligible, he or she can receive a continuation of the
medical benefit for up to two years under the Severance Plan
described below. The benefit valuation at the end of this
section includes the actuarial present value of executive
insurance plan coverage where it continues indefinitely, and the
cost of the coverage where it continues for a specified period.
The actuarial present value is incremental to what the named
executive officer would have received under the retiree medical
plan available to other employees. To the extent that our
actuarial present value calculations assume coverage over a
beneficiarys expected lifetime, we make this assumption
only for estimating the value of benefits in this proxy
statement and not as a guarantee of continuing coverage.
If the named executive officers currently are placed on
disability leave, they and their spouses and dependents receive
a continuance of their executive insurance plan coverage for the
duration of the leave.

Benefits
The named executive officers are covered under an executive
insurance plan which provides them, as well as their spouses and
dependents, with medical and dental coverage. Once
retirement-eligible named executive officers are terminated,
they and their spouses and dependents receive a continuation of
this benefit for the remainder of their lives or until they fail
to qualify as dependents, if sooner. Named executive officers
whose age plus years of service equal at least 70 receive a
continuation of this benefit, provided that they pay for
coverage until age 65. Access to these medical benefits
continues for the spouses and dependents after the named
executive officers death. If a named executive officer is
terminated in connection with a change of control, he or she
receives a continuation of the medical benefit for two years
under the Severance Plan described below. The benefit valuation
at the end of this section includes the incremental actuarial
present value of executive insurance plan coverage where it
continues indefinitely, and the cost of the coverage where it
continues for a specified period.
If the named executive officers are placed on disability leave,
they and their spouses and dependents receive a continuance of
their executive insurance plan coverage for the duration of the
leave.
