public pension funds. The Connecticut Retirement & Trust Funds has S9:7Z billion in assets and

5. Biff Patterson,* Corporate Affairs Director, International BrotherhoodofTeamsters.
Like! NY'CERS'and CALPERS, the Teamsters are leaders in the actiNist institutional investor
community and have!submitted numerous corporate governance shareholder proposals: They

6. Marvini R. Eirubes,*' Director, Communications & Research Departmen United' Food &
Commercial Worhers..
Marvin Hrubes ("her-OO-bish"J is an officer with the Council of Institutional Investors, which is
why his name appears as a signatory on the two: letters we received from the institutions. There
was recently a bitter battle within the leadership~of the Council. with the unions wanting more
representation at the execudve level.
Our S tock Watch advisor at First Chicago Corporation has nor been able to tind any information
on this group.
7. AshiWilliams, Executive Director; Flbrida State Board of Administration.
While members oflthe Florida board are often speakers at corporate governance conferences, they
do not appear as aggressive as CALPERS; INYCERS or the Teamsters. We are not aware of'any
shareholder proposals that they have submitted. Luther Jones,* a quiet; reasonable man whom,
we know, is an~ important figure at the Florida board. The Floridz public pension fund has
$28.68 billion under management and owns 3:6 million shares of Philip Morris. (Note: On
9/6/94; the Florida State Baard filed a shareholder suit alleging the PM'inflated'its stock price by
concealing, the addictive nature of nicotine. The suit is similar to the Steiner/Kurzweibsuit in New
York. See Q'-2 of the Qc4Cr1. /
