One business day before the expiration date of the Rights Offering, the Trustee will transfer these funds from your account and use such funds to participate on your behalf in the Rights Offering.
Q-12:		WHAT IF I DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT FUNDS IN THE MERRILL LYNCH RETIREMENT PRESERVATION TRUST FUND?
A-12:		If you transfer insufficient funds into, or you transfer amounts out of, the Merrill Lynch Retirement Preservation Trust Fund, including after the fifth business day before the expiration date of the Rights Offering (due to, for example, a fund transfer, loan, withdrawal or distribution) and therefore you do not have sufficient funds to exercise all of your Rights in accordance with your election, the Rights will be exercised to the maximum extent possible with the amount you have invested in your Merrill Lynch Retirement Preservation Trust Fund.
Q-13:		WHAT IF THE PER SHARE PUBLIC TRADING MARKET PRICE OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK DECLINES AFTER I SUBMIT MY 401(K) PLAN PARTICIPANT ELECTION FORM TO THE TRUSTEE AND BEFORE THE TIME THAT THE TRUSTEE EXERCISES THE RIGHTS AND PURCHASES COMMON STOCK ON MY BEHALF?

If you elect to exercise your Rights, you should be aware that the market value of the Company’s common stock may go up or down after you submit your 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form to the Trustee and before the time that common stock is purchased pursuant to the Rights and allocated to your account under the 401(k) plan.
Q-14:		WILL ANY COMMISSIONS OR FEES BE CHARGED TO MY ACCOUNT UNDER THE 401(K) PLAN?
A-14:		No. No commissions or fees will be charged on the exercise of Rights by the 401(k) plan to purchase the common stock under the Rights Offering. Accordingly, no commissions or fees will be charged to your account. If any administrative fees are charged, the Company will pay those fees.
Q-15:		WHEN WILL THE COMMON STOCK BE ISSUED AND ALLOCATED TO MY ACCOUNT UNDER THE 401(K) PLAN?
A-15:		As soon as administratively practicable after completion of the Rights Offering.

Q-16:		WHEN CAN I TRANSFER OR SELL THE COMMON STOCK ALLOCATED TO MY ACCOUNT UNDER THE 401(K) PLAN?
A-16:		Shares purchased through the Rights Offering are available for transfer after allocation to your Company Stock Fund account. The shares will be allocated on the date of receipt by the Trustee of the shares.
Q-17:		WILL THE NORMAL TIME PERIODS FOR THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON STOCK IN THE COMPANY STOCK FUND APPLY TO THE RIGHTS OFFERING UNDER THE 401(K) PLAN?
A-17:		No. It may take up to [10 business days] (or longer) for the Trustee to receive the shares of common stock purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering. As a result, you temporarily will be unable to direct or diversify the common stock purchased for your individual account pursuant to the Rights Offering until such stock is received by the Trustee and allocated to your account. This temporary period, during which you will be unable to sell such common stock, is called a “blackout period.” Whether or not you are planning retirement in the near future, we encourage you to carefully consider how this blackout period may affect your retirement planning, as well as your overall financial plan.
		This blackout period for the 401(k) plan is expected to begin on                     , 2009 and end up to 10 business days later (or longer). During this time, you can determine whether the blackout period has started or ended by contacting Addie Novak at (440) 248-7171.
		It is very important that you review and consider the appropriateness of your current investments in light of your inability to direct or diversify during the blackout period the common stock purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering. For your long-term retirement security, you should give careful consideration to the importance of a well-balanced and diversified investment portfolio, taking into account all your assets, income and investments. You should be aware that there is a risk to holding substantial portions of your assets in the securities of any one company, as individual securities tend to have wider price swings, up and down, in short periods of time, than investments in diversified funds. If PVF common stock has wide price swings during the blackout period, you might have a large loss and you would not be able to direct the sale of such common stock purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering during the blackout period.
Q-18:		WILL THE RIGHTS OFFERING AFFECT THE NORMAL TIME PERIODS FOR THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON STOCK FOR MY 401(K) ACCOUNT?
A-18:		No. Your ability to purchase and sell shares of common stock (other than the common stock purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering) for your 401(k) account are subject to the normal time periods under the 401(k) plan. The Rights Offering or blackout period will not affect your ability to sell common stock already allocated to your account or otherwise purchase common stock for your account (other than the common stock purchased pursuant to the Rights Offering).
