supplemental pension plan provides for incremental pension payments from the Corporation’s funds so that total pension payments equal amounts that would have been payable from the Corporation’s principal pension plans, were it not for limitations imposed by income tax regula- tions. The plans provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. The Corporation uses December 31 as the measurement date for its plans.
