HILL, Circuit Judge,
specially concurring.
I am informed by my colleagues on the panel that this court’s en banc reconsideration of Perez did not include review of the Perez holding regarding the proper standard of appellate review of a plan administrator’s factual findings. In view of Perez, therefore, I join the opinion today. My concurrence is premised upon the binding precedent of Perez in this circuit and I need not join in so much of the opinion as evaluates the reasoning of Perez as being superior to that of the Fifth Circuit’s in Pierre.
Accordingly, I CONCUR.
