76310 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 235 / Wednesday, December 6, 2000 / Notices

the applicant noted that the M/P Plan’s

initial annual lease payments for the

Leased Space in Building I represent

only approximately 1/100th of 1% of

the current market value of the M/P

Plan’s assets.

In consideration of this Comment, the

Department has modified condition 6 of

the final exemption such that it reads:

‘‘The annual fair market rental amount

for the Leased Space will not exceed 5%

of the Training Plan’s total assets and

1% of the M/P Plan’s total assets.’’

After giving full consideration to the

entire record, including all of the

Comments submitted to the Department

and the responses made by the

applicant, the Department has

determined to grant the exemption,

subject to the modification described

above.

The Comments have been included as

part of the public record for the

exemption application. Interested

persons should be aware that the

complete exemption application file is

available for public inspection in the

Public Disclosure Room of the Pension

and Welfare Benefits Administration,

Room N–5638, U.S. Department of

Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW.,

General Information

The attention of interested persons is

directed to the following:

(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 exemptions

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) These exemptions are

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 these

exemptions is subject to the express

condition that the material facts and

representations contained in each

application accurately describes all

material terms of the transaction which

is the subject of the exemption.
