                        After adding together Terry’s pension benefit for each of the periods in which
                        he worked, Terry is entitled to a regular pension benefit of $1,887.33 per month
                        payable as a single life annuity. If Terry selects a different form of payment (for
                        example, if he is married and selects the 50% spouse pension), these monthly
                        amounts will be reduced.
