to Item 1(a) of Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); (b) during 
any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at 
the beginning of such period constitute the Board of 
Resources cease for any reason to constitute at least a

vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still 
in office who were directors at the beginning of such 
period; (c) any person (within the meaning of Section

by the stockholders of Resources of any merger or 
consolidation of Resources with any other corporation or 
the sale or other disposition of all or substantially 
all of the assets of Resources to any other person or 
persons unless, after giving effect thereto, (1) holders

tinuing, surviving or transferee corporation or any 
parent (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the

	(m) "PP&L Resources" shall mean PP&L Resources, Inc.

6.	Payment of Account - General Provisions

	(a) The Total Amount Payable shall be payable to 
Participant:

           (i)   if Participant becomes totally disabled while 
employed by the Company, as determined by the 
EBPB in its discretion;

          (ii)   if Participant retires from the Company under 
the Retirement Plan; or

         (iii)   if Participant resigns or otherwise ceases 
employment with the Company; 

	    within thirty (30) days of such event or in the January 
of the calendar year following such event, as elected by 
Participant.  Such election must be made before the 
applicable Cash Compensation and/or Cash Award is 
deferred and may not be changed with respect to Cash 
Compensation and/or Cash Award once it has been 
deferred.  If Participant has made no election, payments 
will commence within thirty (30) days after cessation of 
employment.

7.  Supplemental Payments.

	(a)  Upon his retirement under the Retirement Plan or the 
Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan or upon 
his death while still employed by the Company, Partici-
pant and/or his beneficiaries shall be paid a monthly 
supplemental retirement benefit (or supplemental pre--
retirement spouse's annuity, as the case may be) equal 
to the difference, if any, between the benefit which 
would have been payable to him under such plan if the 
Participant's Deferred Cash Compensation had been 
included in the Participant's compensation for such plan 
and the benefit actually payable to the Participant 
and/or his beneficiaries thereunder.  Such supplemental 
retirement benefit shall be payable in accordance with 
all the terms and conditions applicable to the Partici-
pant's or his beneficiary's benefit under the Retirement 
Plan, including any optional form of payment.  If such 
supplemental retirement payments would be less than one 
hundred dollars ($100) per month, the EBPB, in its dis-
cretion, may elect to make such monthly supplemental 
retirement payments in such installments as the EBPB may 
determine or in a single lump-sum payment.  Notwith-
standing the foregoing, in the event that Participant's 
benefits under the Retirement Plan are subject to a 
qualified domestic relations order, any supplemental 
retirement benefits payable under this paragraph shall 
be calculated and made without regard to such order.

	(b)  Any Participant who terminates employment with the Com-
pany (by retirement or otherwise) under circumstances 
where the Company has requested or demanded such termi-
nation of employment for proper cause (including, with-
out limitation, theft, fraud, breach of any fiduciary 
duty, misrepresentation, deceit, illegal or criminal 
act(s)) shall have no right to receive any payment from 
this Plan under paragraph 7(a).  The preceding sentence 
shall not apply to any Participant who terminates 
employment with the Company within three (3) years after 
the effective date of a Change in Control.

II.	Except as provided for in this Amendment No. 4, all other 
provisions of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.
	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment No. 4 is executed this    
 _____ day of January 1995.
