(b) Obtain legal advice regarding the applicability of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (29 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.) and the Internal Revenue Code to the plan.

(c) Investigate whether employers that are not required to participate in the plan can make the plan available to their employees.
