AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA IBEW-NECA ACTIVE HEALTH PLAN

The Board of Trustees of the Southern California IBEW-NECA Health Trust Fund hereby wishes to clarify the provisions of the Southern California IBEW-NECA Active Health Plan with regard to bargaining agreements that require contributions at an hourly rate that is different from the hourly contribution rate set forth in the then current IBEW-Local 11 NECA Inside Agreement. The following new Section is added after the end of the existing Section entitled "I.O. Reciprocal Agreement" found on pages 12, 13 of the Active Health Plan:

"It is recognized that certain collective bargaining agreements may provide an hourly contribution rate for full health coverage under this Plan that is different from the then current hourly contribution rate as set forth from time to time under the IBEW-Local 11 NECA Inside Wiremen's Agreement. In such event, the hours to be credited to the Participant for eligibility shall be the product of the hourly contribution rate of the other Agreement divided by the hourly contribution rate of the current IBEW-Local 11 NECA Inside Wiremen's Agreement times the hours worked by the Participant under the other Agreement.

For example, if the other Agreement has a $5.00 per hour rate, the Inside Wiremen's Agreement has a $7.00 per hour rate and the participant worked 100 hours under the other Agreement he would be credited with 71.43 hours for eligibility under this plan (5/7 x 100 = 71.43 eligibility hours)."

All other terms of this and conditions of the Active Health Plan shall remain in full force and effect.

This Amendment to the Active Health Plan shall be effective August 1, 2004.

Approved and adopted at the meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Southern California IBEW-NECA Health Trust Fund held on September 13, 2004
