1.501(c)(9)-7. Voluntary employees' beneficiary
associations; section 3(4) of ERISA. --The term "voluntary
employees' beneficiary association" in section 501(c)(9)
of the Internal Revenue Code is not necessarily coextensive
with the term "employees' beneficiary association"
as used in section 3(4) of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. 1002(4), and the requirements
which an organization must meet to be an "employees' beneficiary
association" within the meaning of section 3(4) of ERISA
are not necessarily identical to the requirements that an organization
must meet in order to be a "voluntary employees' beneficiary
association" within the meaning of section 501(c)(9) of
the Code. [Reg. §1.501(c)(9)-7.]
