In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended ( ‘‘ Act’’ ), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on March 1, 2010, applicable to workers of Dell Products LP, Winston-Salem (WS–1) Division, including on-site leased workers from Adecco, Spherion, Patriot Staffing, Manpower, TEKsystems, APN and ICONMA, Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

the Federal Register on April 19, 2010 (75 FR 20385).

At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged in employment related to the production of desktop computers.

North Carolina location of Dell Products LP, Winston-Salem (WS–1) Division.

The amended notice applicable to TA–W–72,575 is hereby issued as

Labor.

### 56565 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 179 / Thursday, September 16, 2010 / Notices

2 PNC represents that it would be accurate to
describe ‘‘the credit’’ as a ‘‘ credited dollar amount’’
to cover situations in which the credited amount’’ is used to acquire additional shares of a Fund, rather than being held by a Client Plan in the form of cash. It is represented that the standard practice
is to reinvest the ‘‘ credited dollar amount’’ in additional shares of the same Fund with respect to
which the fees were credited. provided that the conditions of Section II are

met. ’’

Section II—General Conditions

(a) PNC, which serves as a fiduciary for a Client Plan, satisfies any one (but not all) of the following:

(1) A Client Plan invested in a Fund does not pay any plan-level investment management fee, investment advisory fee, or similar fee (Plan-Level Fee(s)) to PNC or its affiliates with respect to any
of the assets of such Client Plan which
are invested in shares of such Fund for the entire period of such investment (the Offset Fee Method). This condition does not preclude the payment of investment advisory fees by the Funds
to PNC under the terms of an investment management agreement adopted in accordance with section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the ‘‘ 1940 Act’’ );

(2) A Client Plan invested in the Funds pays an investment management
fee or similar fee based on total Client
Plan assets from which a credit has been subtracted representing such Client Plan’s pro rata share of investment advisory fees paid by the Funds to PNC (the Subtraction Fee Method). If, during any fee period for which a Client Plan has prepaid its investment management or similar fee, the Client Plan purchases shares of such Fund, the requirement of this Section II(a)(2) shall be deemed to have been met with respect to such prepaid fee if, by a method reasonably designed to accomplish the same, the amount of the prepaid fee that constitutes the fee with respect to plan
assets invested in shares of such Fund (i) is anticipated and subtracted from the prepaid fee at the time of payment of such fee, (ii) is returned to the Client Plan no later than during the immediately following fee period, or (iii) is offset against the prepaid fee for the immediately following fee period or for the fee period immediately following thereafter. For purposes of this Section II(a)(2), a fee shall be deemed to have been prepaid for any fee period if the
amount of such fee is calculated as of a date not later than the first day of such period; or

(3) A Client Plan invested in a Fund

receives a ‘‘ credit’’ 2 (the Credit Fee Method) of such Plan’s proportionate share of all fees charged to the Funds by PNC for investment advisory or similar services, on a date which is no later than one business day after receipt of such fees by PNC from the Fund. The crediting of all such fees to such Client Plan by PNC is audited by an independent accountant firm (the Auditor) on at least an annual basis to verify the proper crediting of such fees
to such Client Plan.

(a) The price paid or received by a
Client Plan for shares in a Fund is the net asset value per share at the time of the transaction, as defined, below in Section III, and is the same price which would have been paid or received for such shares by any other investor in such Fund at that time;

(b) PNC, including any officer or director of PNC, does not purchase or sell shares of the Funds from or to any Client Plan;

(c) A Client Plan does not pay sales commissions in connection with any purchase or sale of shares of a Fund, and a Client Plan does not pay redemption fees in connection with any sale of shares to a Fund, unless

(2) The existence of such redemption fee is disclosed in the prospectus for
such Fund in effect both at the time of the purchase of such shares and at the time of such sale;

(d) The combined total of all fees received by PNC for the provision of services by PNC to Client Plans and to Funds in which a Client Plan invests, is
not in excess of ‘‘reasonable compensation ’’ within the meaning of section 408(b)(2) of the Act;

(e) PNC does not receive any fees payable pursuant to Rule 12b–1 under
the 1940 Act in connection with the transactions;

(f) No Client Plan is an employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by PNC;

full and detailed written disclosure of information concerning such Fund including but not limited to:

(1) A current prospectus for each
Fund in which a Client Plan is considering investing;

(2) A statement describing the fees, including the nature and extent of any
differential between the rates of such
fees for:

(ii) any Secondary Services to be paid by such Fund to PNC, and (iii) all other fees to be charged to or paid by the Client Plan and by such Fund;

(3) The reason why PNC, acting as a fiduciary for such Client Plan, considers
investment in such Fund to be appropriate for such Client Plan;

(4) A statement describing whether there are any limitations applicable to PNC with respect to which assets of a Client Plan may be invested in such Fund, and if so, the nature of such limitations; and

(5) Upon the request of the Second Fiduciary, acting on behalf of a Client Plan, a copy of the proposed exemption and/or copy of the final exemption, if granted, once such documents are published in the Federal Register

.

(h) On the basis of the information described, above, in Section II(h), a Second Fiduciary, acting on behalf of a Client Plan, authorizes in writing: (1)
The investment of the assets of such Client Plan in shares of each particular Fund; and (2) the fees received by PNC in connection with services provided by
PNC to such Fund. Such authorization by a Second Fiduciary must be consistent with the responsibilities, obligations, and duties imposed on fiduciaries by Part 4 of Title I of the Act.

(i) Investments by a Client Plan in a Fund;

(iii) fees paid for Secondary Services shall be terminable at will by the Second Fiduciary, acting on behalf of such Client Plan, without penalty to such Client Plan, upon receipt by PNC, acting as fiduciary on behalf of such Client Plan, of a written notice of termination. A form (the Termination Form), as defined, below, in Section III(j), expressly providing an election to terminate the authorizations, described, above, in Section II(i), with instructions

(2) The instructions for the

written notice from such Second Fiduciary; and

(ii) Failure by such Second Fiduciary

(j) For a Client Plan invested in a
Fund which uses one of the fee methods described, above, in Section II(a)(1), (a)(2), or (a)(3) in the event of a proposed change from one of the fee
methods to another or in the event of a proposed increase in the rate of any fee paid by such Fund to PNC for any investment advisory service or similar service that PNC provides to a Fund over an existing rate for such service or method of determining the fee for such service, which had been authorized by the Second Fiduciary for such Client Plan, in accordance with Section II(i), above, PNC, at least thirty (30) days in advance of the implementation of such change and/or such increase, provides a written notice (which may take the form of a proxy statement, letter, or similar communication that is separate from the prospectus of such Fund and which explains the nature and amount of such change from one of the fee methods to another or increase in fee) to the Second Fiduciary of each Client Plan affected by such change from one fee method to
another fee method or increase in fee. Such notice shall be accompanied by a Termination Form, with instructions on the use of such Termination Form, as described, above, in Section II(j).

(k) In the event of: (i) A proposed addition of a Secondary Service for which an additional fee is charged; or

(ii) A proposed increase in the rate of any fee paid by a Fund to PNC for any Secondary Service, or

results from the decrease in the number or kind of services performed by PNC for such fee over an existing rate for services which had been authorized, in accordance with Section II(i), by the Second Fiduciary for a Client Plan invested in such Fund, PNC will at least thirty (30) days in advance of the implementation of such fee increase or
additional service for which an additional fee is charged or a decrease in the number or kind of services being performed, provide a written notice (which may take the form of a proxy statement, letter, or similar communication that is separate from the prospectus of such Fund and which explains the nature and amount of the
additional service for which an additional fee is charged or the nature

Written Comments

In the Notice of Proposed Exemption (the Notice), the Department of Labor (the Department) invited all interested persons to submit written comments and requests for a hearing on the proposed exemption within forty-five (45) days of the date of the publication
of the Notice in the Federal Register on April 30, 2010. All comments and requests for a hearing from interested persons were due by June 14, 2010; however, because the Applicant required additional time to mail the Notice to all interested parties, the Department extended the due date to June 17, 2010 which was reflected in the Notice. The Department received no requests for a hearing. The Department
received one written comment from the Applicant on June 15, 2010. The Applicant later clarified its written comments in a letter dated July 6, 2010.

1. Scope of Relief

The Applicant requested that the scope of relief provided in the Notice be expanded to include all of section 406(a) of the Act instead of only section 406(a)(1)(D) of the Act. The Applicant represents that the Department has provided relief from section 406(a) in similar prior exemptions. In response, it is the Department’s view that the PNC Funds are not parties in interest under section 3(14) of the Act with respect to the Plan. Accordingly, the Department has determined not to provide the requested relief under section 406(a)(1)(A) of the Act. A similar analysis would apply to sections 406(a)(1)(B) and (C) of the Act. Therefore, the Department has decided to limit relief to sections 406(a)(1)(D) and 406(b) of the Act.

2. Credit Fee Method Implementation

The Applicant also requested that the Department clarify the timing as to when the Applicant implemented the Credit Fee Method. The Applicant represents that although the Applicant had systems in place to implement the Credit Fee Method, it implemented the
Credit Fee Method for investments in the PNC Funds in June 2010. The Department, in order to clarify this issue, has added the following sentence to the end of Representation 11 as
follows:

‘‘ PNC represents that it had systems in place as of February 8, 2008 to implement the Credit Fee Method; however, at that time PNC did not use
the Credit Fee Method for Client Plan
investments in the Funds. ’’

In addition, due to a publication error, part of the first sentence of Footnote 3 in Representation 11 was missing. The
first sentence of Footnote 3 in Representation 11 should have read:

‘‘ It is the view of PNC that the Credit Fee Method is covered by PTE 77–4. ’’

3. Summary Prospectus

The Applicant also requested the Department’s views on whether, for purposes of the exemptive relief requested, PNC may use a current

‘‘ summary prospectus ’’ to satisfy the conditions contained in section II(h)(1) and II(m)(1) of the Notice. The condition in section II(h)(1) of this grant requires that the Second Fiduciary, who is acting on behalf of a Client Plan, receives in advance of any initial investment in a Fund, among other things, a current

‘‘ prospectus. ’’ The condition in section II(m)(1) of this grant also requires that, on an annual basis, PNC provides the Second Fiduciary of each Client Plan
invested in a Fund with such Fund’s

current ‘‘ prospectus. ’’ The Applicant also requested the Department’s views on whether, for purposes of the individual exemptive relief granted to
PNC in Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2009–22 (PTE 2009–22), it may use a current ‘‘ summary prospectus ’’ to satisfy the conditions contained in section II(h)(1) and II(m)(1) of PTE 2009–22. The Department notes that: (1) Neither exemption defines the

term ‘‘ prospectus; ’’ (2) the ‘‘ summary prospectus ’’ includes, among other things, fee and expense information and a legend containing an internet address and telephone number for obtaining a

‘‘ prospectus ’’ for the relevant Fund and other information free of charge; and (3) the exemptive relief is conditioned upon the affected plans receiving a separate fee disclosure, in advance of any initial investment and upon the occurrence of certain specified events,
which fee disclosure contains more detailed information than the general fee information required to be included

in a ‘‘ prospectus ’’ or ‘‘ summary prospectus. ’’ Accordingly, the Department wishes to clarify solely for purposes of section II(h)(1) and section II(m)(1) of this grant and section II(h)(1)


### 56568 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 179 / Thursday, September 16, 2010 / Notices

3 The Department notes that consistent with the prudence requirements of section 404, a fiduciary has a duty to consider all available relevant information regardless whether the information is actually provided to the fiduciary.

4 Unless otherwise stated herein, the Facility and the Land are together referred to as the ‘‘Property. ’’ and section II(m)(1) of PTE 2009–22 that
wherever a ‘‘ prospectus ’’ is required to be provided by those sections, such requirement can also be satisfied by the provision of a ‘‘ summary prospectus. ’’ 3

(1) The fact that a transaction is the subject of an exemption under section 408(a) of the Act and/or section 4975(c)(2) of the Code does not relieve a fiduciary or other party in interest or disqualified person from certain other provisions to which the exemption does not apply and the general fiduciary responsibility provisions of section 404 of the Act, which among other things require a fiduciary to discharge his duties respecting the plan solely in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan and in a prudent fashion in accordance with section 404(a)(1)(B) of the Act; nor does it affect the requirement of section 401(a) of the Code that the plan must operate for the exclusive benefit of the employees of the employer maintaining the plan and their beneficiaries;

(2) This exemption is supplemental to and not in derogation of, any other provisions of the Act and/or the Code, including statutory or administrative exemptions and transactional rules. Furthermore, the fact that a transaction is subject to an administrative or statutory exemption is not dispositive of

whether the transaction is in fact a prohibited transaction; and

(3) The availability of this exemption is subject to the express condition that the material facts and representations contained in the application accurately

describes all material terms of the transaction which is the subject of the exemption. Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of September, 2010.
