Mr. Ray is eligible to participate in the Plan.

Item 6.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Registrant is a Delaware corporation. Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted under similar standards to those set forth above, except that no indemnification may be made in respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that despite the adjudication of liability, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

Section 145 of the DGCL further provides, among other things, that to the extent a director or officer of the corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsection (a) and (b) of Section 145 or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled, and that the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director or officer of the corporation against any liability asserted against such officer or director and incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liabilities under Section 145.

As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the Company’s certificate of incorporation provides that a director shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. However, such provision does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for acts or omissions not in good faith or for breaching his or her duty of loyalty, engaging in intentional misconduct or knowingly violating the law, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase which was illegal, or obtaining an improper personal benefit. A provision of this type has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunction or rescission, for breach of fiduciary duty.

The Company’s bylaws require that directors and officers be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition to the indemnification provisions in the Company’s bylaws, the Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each director and executive officer of the Company. These indemnity agreements require that the Company indemnify each director and executive officer to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

The indemnity agreements also require the Company to make prompt payment of expenses incurred by the director or executive officer in connection with any proceeding upon the request of the director or executive officer in advance of indemnification to the extent permitted by law.

The Company has a policy of directors’ liability insurance which insures the directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances stated in the policy.

Item 7.

Item 8.

Exhibits

See the attached Exhibit Index at page 10, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.

Undertakings

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

AccuDraft

Prototype Defined Contribution Retirement Plan

Preamble

This document is a basic Prototype Defined Contribution Retirement Plan. The sponsor of this prototype is AccuDraft, Inc. or its successor (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the Prototype Sponsor). The Prototype Sponsor has designated this Prototype Defined Contribution Retirement Plan as Basic Plan Number 01. Basic Plan 01 and its companion Adoption Agreements include provisions for a money purchase plan, a profit sharing plan, and a 401(k) plan.

A Sponsoring Employer may adopt one or more plans by executing a completed Adoption Agreement for each type of plan adopted. A Sponsoring Employer may adopt one or more trusts to hold some or all retirement plan assets. The documents mentioned in this section, taken together, constitute the AccuDraft Prototype Defined Contribution Retirement Plan and Trust. In addition, additional Employers may adopt this Plan as an Adopting Employer by completing the Adopting Employer Addendum. To the extent an Adopting Employer is not an Affiliated Employer, the Plan will become a multiple employer plan as set forth in Code §413, and the Plan will cease to be a Prototype Plan.

The seven Adoption Agreements included with the Basic Plan permit a Sponsoring Employer to adopt provisions for one of the following types of plans on a standardized or non-standardized basis: profit sharing, money purchase pension, or 401(k) cash or deferred. The Adoption Agreements permit both integrated and non-integrated formulas, though these terms do not appear in the title of the Adoption Agreements. A defined contribution plan using an integrated formula for allocation of Employer contributions and/of forfeitures is “integrated.” The term “integrated” means a plan which relies on disparities permitted by Code §401(a)(5) and §401(1) to satisfy the non-discrimination requirements of Code §401(a)(4). The non-standardized Adoption Agreements includes provisions for cross-tested allocations.

It is contemplated that this prototype retirement program may be used to continue previously established plans. In this successor plan use, execution of an Adoption Agreement constitutes an amendment to the original plan.

Article 1

Definitions

1.1

ACP Test. The term “ACP Test” means the Actual Contribution Percentage Test.

1.2

ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution. The term “ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution” means an Employer contribution (including an ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution) made to this or any other defined contribution plan on behalf of a Participant on account of a Participant’s Elective Deferrals and/or a Participant’s Employee Contributions made by such Participant under a plan maintained by the Sponsoring Employer, which falls within the requirements of the ACP Safe Harbor as set forth in Code §401(m)(11) and Section 3.21 of the Basic Plan and which is intended to automatically satisfy the requirements of the ACP Test for a Plan Year.

1.3

ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account. The term “ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account” means the account to which a Participant’s ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions are credited.

1.4

Actual Contribution Percentage. The term “Actual Contribution Percentage” means, for a specified group of Participants (either Highly Compensated Employees or Non-Highly Compensated Employees) for a Plan Year, the average of the Contribution Percentages of the “Eligible Participants” in a group. An Actual Contribution Percentage for a specified group of Participants will be calculated to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point. For purposes of this definition, the term “Eligible” Participant” means any Employee (either a Highly Compensated Employee or a Non-Highly Compensated Employee) who is eligible (a) to make a Voluntary Employee Contribution, (b) to make a Mandatory Employee Contribution, (c) to make an Elective Deferral (if the Sponsoring Employer takes such Elective Deferrals into account in the calculation of the Contribution Percentage), (d) to receive a Matching Contribution (including Forfeitures that are contingent upon the Participant making Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions), or (e) to receive a Qualified Matching Contribution. If an Employee Contribution is required as a condition of participation in the Plan, then any Employee who would be a Participant if such Employee made such a contribution will be treated as an “Eligible Participant” on behalf of whom no Employee Contributions are made.

1.5

Actual Contribution Percentage Test. The term “Actual Contribution Percentage Test” means the nondiscrimination test of Section 3.19 that is performed each Plan Year on a Non-Safe Harbor 401(m) Plan. In any Plan Year, if ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (including, if applicable, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) satisfy the requirements of Section 3.21, then the Actual Contribution Percentage Test will be deemed to be satisfied with respect to such ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions of that Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Plan that makes ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that satisfy the requirements of Section 3.21 is deemed to have elected the Current Year Testing Method, regardless of the testing method (Prior Year Testing or Current Year Testing) actually elected in the Adoption Agreement.

1.6

Actual Deferral Percentage. The term “Actual Deferral Percentage” means, for a specified group of Participants (either Highly Compensated Employees or Non-Highly Compensated Employees) for a Plan Year, the average of the ratios (calculated separately to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point for each Participant in such group) of (a) the amount of Employer contributions actually paid over to the Trust on behalf of such Participant for the Plan Year to (b) the Code §414(s) Compensation of such Participant for such Plan Year. For purposes of computing Actual Deferral Percentages, an Employee who would be a Participant but for the failure to make Elective Deferrals will be treated as a Participant on whose behalf no Elective Deferrals are made and such Participant’s ratio will equal zero (0). An Actual Deferral Percentage for a specified group of Participants will be calculated to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point. Employer contributions actually paid over to the Trust on behalf of such Participant (either a HCE or a NHCE) for the Plan Year will include:

(a)

Elective Deferrals. Any Elective Deferrals made pursuant to the Participant’s deferral election (including Excess Elective Deferrals of Highly Compensated Employees), but excluding the following:

(1)

Excess Elective Deferrals of NHCEs. Excess Elective Deferrals of NHCEs that arise solely from Elective Deferrals made under this Plan or plans of this Sponsoring Employer;

(2)

Elective Deferrals Treated as Catch-Up Contributions. Elective Deferrals that are treated as Catch-Up Contributions under Code §414(v) because the Elective Deferrals exceed a statutory limit or employer-provided limit (within the meaning of Regulation §1.414(v)-1(b)(1)) for the Plan Year for which the Elective Deferrals were made, or for any other Plan Year;

(3)

Elective Deferrals in the ACP Test. Elective Deferrals that are taken into account in the Actual Contribution Percentage Test (provided the ADP Test is satisfied both with and without the exclusion of these Elective Deferrals); and


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 2 of 114		July 2008

(4)

Additional Elective Deferrals Pursuant to Code §414(u). Additional Elective Deferrals that are made pursuant to Code §414(u) by reason of a Participant’s qualified military service for the Plan Year for which the contributions are made, or for any other Plan Year.

(b)

QNECs and QMACs. In the discretion of the Sponsoring Employer, Qualified Non-Elective Contributions and Qualified Matching Contributions.

1.7

Actual Deferral Percentage Test. The term “Actual Deferral Percentage Test” means the nondiscrimination test of Section 3.18 that is performed each Plan Year on a Non-Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan. In any Plan Year, if ADP Safe Harbor Contributions satisfy the requirements of Section 3.20, then the Actual Deferral Percentage Test will be deemed to be satisfied with respect to any Elective Deferrals of that Plan Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Plan that makes ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that satisfy the requirements of Section 3.20 is deemed to have elected the Current Year Testing Method, regardless of the testing method (Prior Year Testing Method or Current Year Testing Method) actually elected in the Adoption Agreement.

1.8

Administrator. The term “Administrator” means the Sponsoring Employer unless the Sponsoring Employer appoints another Administrator in the Adoption Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Basic Plan. The term “Administrator” also means a Qualified Termination Administrator (“QTA”) charged with the task of holding the assets of an orphan plan as permitted by the Department of Labor. A QTA will be an eligible custodian such as a bank, mutual fund house, or insurance company. Third party record-keepers cannot be QTAs. However, in the case of a one participant-owner only plan, the spouse of a deceased owner can continue to operate the Plan, pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2006-27.

1.9

Adopting Employer. The term “Adopting Employer” means any entity which adopts this Plan with the consent of the Sponsoring Employer. In addition to all other terms and conditions in the Plan, Adopting Employers will be, and must comply with, the terms and conditions set forth in Article 10. If the Plan is utilizing a standardized Adoption Agreement, then any Affiliated Employer is automatically considered to be an Adopting Employer. If the Plan is utilizing a non-standardized Adoption Agreement, then an Affiliated Employer is not considered an Adopting Employer unless such Affiliated Employer has specifically adopted the Plan.

1.10

ADP Safe Harbor Contribution. The term “ADP Safe Harbor Contribution” means an ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution and/or an ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution.

1.11

ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution. The term “ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution” means an Employer contribution made to this or any other defined contribution plan on behalf of a Participant (a) on account of Elective Deferrals made by such Participant under a plan maintained by the Sponsoring Employer, (b) in which a Participant will have a 100% Vested Interest at all times, and (c) which falls within the requirements of the ADP Safe Harbor as set forth in Code §401(k)(12) and Section 3.20 of the Basic Plan and which is intended to automatically satisfy the requirements of the ADP Test and the ACP Test for a Plan Year. ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions can be either “Basic” or “Enhanced” as elected in the Adoption Agreement. ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions can only be distributed upon the earliest to occur of the following dates: (a) a Participant Terminates Employment (separates from service, for Plan Years beginning before 2002) with the Employer; (b) a Participant dies; (c) a Participant suffers a Disability; (d) an event that is described in Code §401(k)(10) occurs; or (e) a Participant reaches Age 59 ¹ / ₂ (if on or before such date, a pre-retirement in-service withdrawal of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is elected in the Adoption Agreement). With respect to clause (d) of the prior sentence, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions can be distributed (in a lump sum only) upon termination of the Plan, so long as the Sponsoring Employer (or an Affiliated Employer) does not maintain an alternative defined contribution plan at any time during the period beginning on the date of Plan termination and ending 12 months after all assets have been distributed from the terminated Plan. However, if at all times during the 24-month period beginning 12 months before the date of Plan’s termination, fewer than 2% of the Employees eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan as of the date of the Plan’s termination are eligible to participate in the other defined contribution plan, then the other defined contribution plan is not an alternative defined contribution plan. In addition, a defined contribution plan is not an alternative defined contribution plan if it is an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code §4975(e)(7) or Code §409(a), a simplified employee pension as defined in Code §408(k), a SIMPLE IRA plan as defined in Code §408(p), a plan or contract that is described in Code §403(b), or a plan that is described in Code §457(b) or Code §457(f). For Plan Years beginning before 2002, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions could also be distributed (in a lump sum only) upon (a) the disposition by a corporation to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets (within the meaning of Code §409(d)(2)) used in a trade or business of such corporation if such corporation continues to maintain the Plan after the disposition, but only with respect to employees who continue employment with the corporation acquiring such assets; or (b) the disposition by a corporation to an unrelated entity of such corporation’s interest in a subsidiary (within the meaning of Code §409(d)(3)) if such corporation continues to maintain the Plan, but only with respect to employees who continue employment with such subsidiary.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 3 of 114		July 2008

1.12

ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account. The term “ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account” means the account to which a Participant’s ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions are credited.

1.13

ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution. The term “ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution” means a Non-Elective Contribution in which a Participant will have a 100% Vested Interest at all times, which falls within the requirements of the ADP Safe Harbor under Code §401(k)(12) and Section 3.20 of the Basic Plan, and which is intended to automatically satisfy the requirements of the ADP Test for a Plan Year. ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions can only be distributed upon the earliest to occur of the following dates: (a) a Participant Terminates Employment (separates from service, for Plan Years beginning before 2002) with the Employer; (b) a Participant dies; (c) a Participant suffers a Disability; (d) an event that is described in Code §401(k)(10) occurs; or (e) a Participant reaches Age 59 ¹ / ₂ (if on or before such date, a pre-retirement in-service withdrawal of ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions is elected in the Adoption Agreement). With respect to clause (d) of the prior sentence, ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions can be distributed (in a lump sum only) upon termination of the Plan, so long as the Sponsoring Employer (or an Affiliated Employer) does not maintain an alternative defined contribution plan at any time during the period beginning on the date of Plan termination and ending 12 months after all assets have been distributed from the terminated Plan. However, if at all times during the 24-month period beginning 12 months before the date of Plan termination, fewer than 2% of the Employees who were eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan as of the date of Plan termination are eligible to participate in the other defined contribution plan, then the other defined contribution plan is not an alternative defined contribution plan. Also, a defined contribution plan is not an alternative defined contribution plan if it is an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code §4975(e)(7) or Code §409(a), a simplified employee pension as defined in Code §408(k), a SIMPLE IRA plan as defined in Code §408(p), a plan or contract that is described in Code §403(b), or a plan that is described in Code §457(b) or §457(f). For Plan Years beginning before 2002, ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions could also be distributed (in a lump sum only) upon (a) the disposition by a corporation to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets (within the meaning of Code §409(d)(2)) used in a trade or business of such corporation if such corporation continues to maintain the Plan after the disposition, but only with respect to employees who continue employment with the corporation acquiring such assets; or (b) the disposition by a corporation to an unrelated entity of such corporation’s interest in a subsidiary (within the meaning of Code §409(d)(3)) if such corporation continues to maintain the Plan, but only with respect to employees who continue employment with such subsidiary.

1.14

ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account. The term “ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account” means the account to which a Participant’s ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions are credited.

1.15

ADP Test. The term “ADP Test” means the Actual Deferral Percentage Test.

1.16

Affiliated Employer. The term “Affiliated Employer” means any of the following: (1) a controlled group of corporations as defined in Code §414(b); (2) a trade or business (whether or not incorporated) under common control as described in Code §414(c); (3) any organization (whether or not incorporated) which is a member of an affiliated service group as described in Code §414(m); and (4) any other entity required to be aggregated as described in Code §414(o). Any Periods of Service or Years of Service with an Affiliated Employer will only be taken into account as otherwise provided under the Plan.

1.17

Age. The term “Age” means actual attained age unless otherwise specified.

1.18

Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate. The term “Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate” means the sum of the Employee’s Allocation Rate under the defined contribution plan(s) and the equivalent normal allocation rate under the defined benefit plan(s), determined in the following manner:

(a)

Aggregate Allocation Rates. An Employee’s Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate is determined by treating all defined contribution plans that are part of the combination of defined benefit plan(s) and defined contribution plan(s) as a single plan, and all defined benefit plans that are part of the combination of defined benefit plan(s) and defined contribution plan(s) as a separate single plan. Furthermore, an equivalent normal allocation rate for the Employee is determined pursuant to Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–8(c)(2).

(b)

Options Applied on an Aggregate Basis. The optional rules in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–2(c)(2)(iv) (imputation of permitted disparity) and (v) (grouping of rates) may not be used to determine an Employee’s allocation or equivalent normal allocation rate, but may be applied to determine an Employee’s Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate by substituting the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate (determined without regard to the option) for the Employee’s Allocation Rate in that Regulation section where appropriate.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 4 of 114		July 2008

(c)

Consistency Rule. Aggregate Normal Allocation Rates must be determined in a consistent manner for all employees for the Plan Year. The same measurement periods and interest rates must be used, and any available options must be applied consistently, if at all, for the entire combination of defined benefit and defined contribution plan(s). Options that are not permitted to be used under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–8 in cross-testing a defined contribution plan or a defined benefit plan (such as measurement periods that include future periods, non-standard interest rates, the option to disregard compensation adjustments described in §1.401(a)(4)–13(d), or the option to disregard Plan provisions providing for actuarial increases after normal retirement age under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–3(f)(3)) may not be used in testing a combination of defined benefit and defined contribution plan(s) on either a benefits or contributions basis, because their use would inevitably result in inconsistent determinations under the defined contribution and defined benefit plan(s).

1.19

Allocation Period. The term “Allocation Period” means a period of 12 consecutive months or less for which (a) an Employer contribution is made and allocated under the terms of the Plan; (b) Forfeitures are allocated under the terms of the Plan; and/or (c) earnings and losses are allocated under the terms of the Plan.

1.20

Allocation Rate. The term “Allocation Rate” means the following:

(a)

General Definition. Generally, the term “Allocation Rate” means, for a Participant for a Plan Year, the sum of the allocations to the Participant’s Account for the Plan Year, expressed as a percentage of Code §414(s) Compensation, subject to the following rules:

(1)

Allocations Taken into Account. The allocations used to determine an Allocation Rate for a Plan Year include all Employer contributions and forfeitures that are allocated or treated as allocated to the Participant’s Account under the Plan for the Plan Year, other than amounts described in paragraph (a)(2). For this purpose, Employer contributions include Annual Additions described in Regulation §1.415-6(b)(2)(i) (regarding amounts arising from certain transactions between the Plan and the Employer). If this Plan is subject to Code §412, then an Employer contribution is used in the Plan Year for which the Employer contribution is required to be contributed and allocated to the Participant’s Account under the plan, even if all or part of the required contribution is not actually made.

(2)

Allocations Not Taken into Account. Allocations of income, expenses, gains, and losses attributable to the balance in a Participant’s Account are not used to determine an Allocation Rate.

(b)

Definition for Limitation of Allocation Rates for Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. For purposes of determining the limitation in the number of Allocation Rates that are permitted when the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using allocation groups, the term “Allocation Rate” means the amount of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions allocated to a Benefiting Participant for a Plan Year, expressed as a percentage of Code §414(s) Compensation. The number of eligible NHCEs to which a particular Allocation Rate applies must reflect a reasonable classification of Employees.

1.21

Anniversary Date. The term “Anniversary Date” means the last day of the Plan Year unless another Anniversary Date is elected in the Adoption Agreement.

1.22

Annuity Starting Date. The term “Annuity Starting Date” means the first day of the first period for which a benefit is paid as an annuity, in the case of a benefit not payable as an annuity, the first day all events have occurred which entitle the Participant to the benefit. The first day of the first period for which a benefit is to be paid by reason of Disability will be treated as the Annuity Starting Date only if it is not an auxiliary benefit.

1.23

Annual Additions. The term “Annual Additions” means the sum of the following amounts credited to a Participant’s Account for any Limitation Year: (a) Employer contributions; (b) Employee contributions; (c) Forfeitures; (d) amounts allocated to an individual medical account, as defined in Code §415(1)(2), which is part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer; and (e) amounts derived from contributions paid or accrued that are attributable to post-retirement medical benefits, allocated to the separate account of a Key Employee, as defined in Code §419A(d)(3), under a welfare fund, as defined in Code §419(e), maintained by the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant’s Annual Additions do not include a Participant’s rollovers, loan repayments, Catch-up Contributions, repayments of either prior Plan distributions or prior distributions of Mandatory Employee Contributions, direct transfers of contributions from another plan to this Plan, deductible contributions to a simplified employee pension plan, or voluntary deductible contributions.

1.24

Applicable Contribution Rate. The term “Applicable Contribution Rate,” for a Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee, means (a) for purposes of the ADP Test, the sum of the Qualified Matching Contributions used in the ADP Test for the Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions made for the Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, divided by the Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation for the Plan Year; and (b) for purposes of the ACP Test, the sum of the Matching Contributions used under the Contribution Percentage Amounts for the Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions made for the Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, divided by the Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation for the Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 5 of 114		July 2008

1.25

Applicable Plan Year. The term “Applicable Plan Year” means (a) for any Plan Year in which the Prior Year Testing Method is being used, the Plan Year prior to the Plan Year that is being tested; and (b) for any Plan Year in which the Current Year Testing Method is being used, the Plan Year that is being tested.

1.26

Basic Plan. The term “Basic Plan” means this document and any amendment thereto including amendments made via page changes and/or Employer resolutions.

1.27

Beneficiary. The term “Beneficiary” means the recipient designated by a Participant to receive the benefit payable upon the Participant’s death, or the recipient designated by a Beneficiary to receive any benefit which may be payable in the event of the Beneficiary’s death prior to receiving the entire death benefit to which the Beneficiary is entitled. All such Beneficiary designations will be made in accordance with the following:

(a)

Beneficiary Designations By a Participant. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.8 regarding the rights of a Participant’s Spouse, each Participant may designate a Beneficiary in writing with the Administrator. If a Participant designates his or her Spouse and the Participant and his or her Spouse are legally divorced subsequent to the date of the designation, then the designation of such Spouse as a Beneficiary hereunder will be deemed null and void unless the Participant, subsequent to the legal divorce, reaffirms the designation in writing. In the absence of any other designation, the Participant will be deemed to have designated the following Beneficiaries in the following order, provided however, that with respect to clauses (1) and (2) following, such Beneficiaries are then living: (1) the Participant’s Spouse, (2) the Participant’s issue per stirpes; and (3) the Participant’s estate.

(b)

Beneficiary Designations By a Beneficiary. In the absence of a Beneficiary designation or other directive from a Participant to the contrary, any Beneficiary may name his or her own Beneficiary under Section 5.2(d) of the Basic Plan to receive any benefits payable in the event of the Beneficiary’s death prior to the receipt of all the Participant’s death benefits to which the Beneficiary was entitled.

(c)

Beneficiaries Considered Contingent Until the Death of the Participant. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section to the contrary, any Beneficiary named hereunder will be considered a contingent Beneficiary until the death of the Participant (or Beneficiary, as the case may be), and until such time will have no rights granted to Beneficiaries under the Plan.

1.28

Benefiting Participant. The term “Benefiting Participant” means a Participant who is eligible to receive an allocation of any type of Employer contributions or related Forfeitures as of the last day of an Allocation Period in accordance with the allocation conditions set forth in the Adoption Agreement. Whether a Participant is a Benefiting Participant for any Allocation Period is determined separately for each type of contribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant on whose behalf Prevailing Wage Contributions are made during the Plan Year will be a Benefiting Participant for that Plan Year with respect to those contributions regardless of the number of Hours of Service the Participant completes in that Plan Year.

1.29

Break in Service. The term “Break in Service” means the following:

(a)

For Purposes of Counting of Hours Method. With respect to any provision of the Plan in which Service is determined by the Counting of Hours Method, the term “Break in Service” means a 12-consecutive month computation period (as elected in the Adoption Agreement) during which an Employee is not credited with more than 500 (or such lesser number as elected in the Adoption Agreement) Hours of Service. If any computation period is less than 12 consecutive months, then the Hours of Service threshold set forth in the preceding sentence will be proportionately reduced (if the Hours of Service threshold is greater than one).

(b)

For Purposes of Elapsed Time Method. With respect to any provision of the Plan in which Service is determined by the Elapsed Time Method, the term “Break in Service” means a 1-Year Period of Severance.

(c)

For 401(k) Purposes. With respect to the Elective Deferral component of a 401(k) Plan, a Participant who incurs a Break in Service but who does not Terminate Employment may continue to have Elective Deferrals made on their behalf to the Plan. However such Participant will not be eligible to receive an allocation of any Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions or Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions (if any) unless such Participant is also a Benefiting Participant.

1.30

Broadly Available Allocation Rates. The term “Broadly Available Allocation Rates” means, for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, that each Allocation Rate is currently available during the Plan Year (within the meaning of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-4(b)(2)) to a group of Employees that satisfies the requirements of Code §410(b) without regard to the average benefit percentage test of Regulation §1.410(b)-5. If two Allocation Rates could be permissively aggregated under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-4(d)(4), assuming that the Allocation Rates were treated as benefits, rights, or features, then the Allocation Rates may be aggregated and treated as a single Allocation Rate. However, the disregarding of the age and service conditions as set forth in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-4(b)(2)(ii)(A) does not apply for purposes of this definition. Furthermore, in determining whether the Plan has Broadly Available Allocation Rates, differences in Allocation Rates attributable solely to the use of permitted disparity as described in Regulation §1.401(1)-2 are disregarded.

1.31

Broadly Available Separate Plans. The term “Broadly Available Separate Plans” means, for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, a combination of defined benefit plan(s) and defined contribution plan(s) that would satisfy the requirements of Code §410(b) and the nondiscrimination in amount requirement of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-1(b)(2) if each plan were tested separately and assuming that the average benefit percentage test of Regulation §1.410(b)-5 were satisfied. For this purpose, all defined contribution plans that are part of the combination of defined benefit and defined contribution plans are treated as a single defined contribution plan, and all defined benefit plans that are part of the combination of defined benefit and defined contribution plans are treated as a single defined benefit plan. In addition, if permitted disparity under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7 is used for a Participant for purposes of satisfying the separate testing requirement for plans of one type, then permitted disparity may not be used in satisfying the separate testing requirement for plans of the other type for the Participant.

1.32

Cash or Deferred Contribution. The term “Cash or Deferred Contribution” means an Employer amount that the Participant can elect, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2(b), to have the Employer either (a) provide to the Participant as cash; or (b) contribute to the Plan as an Elective Deferral on behalf of the Participant, which contribution defers the receipt of Compensation by the Participant.

1.33

Catch-Up Contribution. The term “Catch-Up Contribution” means Elective Deferrals made to the Plan that are in excess of an otherwise applicable Plan limit and that are made by Participants who are age 50 or over by the end of their taxable year. An otherwise applicable Plan limit is a limit in the Plan that applies to Elective Deferrals without regard to Catch-Up Contributions, such as (a) the limit on Annual Additions; (b) the dollar limit on Elective Deferrals under Code §402(g) (not counting Catch-Up Contributions); (c) the limit imposed by the ADP Test under § 401(k)(3); or (d) a Plan imposed limit set forth in a resolution properly executed by the Employer which is considered to be an amendment to the Plan. Catch-Up Contributions are not subject to the limit on Annual Additions, are not counted in the ADP Test, and are not counted in determining the Top Heavy Minimum Allocations under Code §416. However, Catch-Up Contributions made in prior years are counted in determining whether the Plan is Top-Heavy. Provisions in the Plan relating to Catch-Up Contributions apply to Elective Deferrals made to the Plan after 2001. The total amount of Catch-Up Contributions for any taxable year will not exceed the Catch-Up Contribution Limit

1.34

Catch-Up Contribution Limit. The term “Catch-Up Contribution Limit” means the statutory limit on Catch-Up Contributions for a Participant for any taxable year. A Participant’s Catch-Up Contributions for a taxable year may not exceed (a) the dollar limit on Catch-Up Contributions under Code §414(v)(2)(B)(i) for the taxable year, or (b) when added to other Elective Deferrals, 100% of the Participant’s Compensation for the taxable year. The dollar limit on Catch-Up Contributions under Code §414(v)(2)(B)(i) is $1,000 for taxable years beginning in 2002, increasing by $1,000 for each year thereafter up to $5,000 for taxable years beginning in 2006 and later years. After 2006, the $5,000 limit will be adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under Code §414(v)(2)(C). Any such adjustments will be in multiples of $500. Different limits apply to Catch-Up Contributions under SIMPLE 401(k) plans.

1.35

Code. The term “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Regulations, and rulings promulgated thereunder by the Internal Revenue Service. All citations to sections of the Code and Regulations are to such sections as they may from time to time be amended or renumbered.

1.36

Code §3401 Compensation. The term “Code §3401 Compensation” means wages within the meaning of Code §3401(a) (for purposes of income tax withholding at the source), but determined without regard to any rules that limit the remuneration included in wages based on the nature or location of the employment or the services performed (such as the exception for agricultural labor in Code §3401(a)(2)).

1.37

Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit. The term “Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit” means, for any Plan Year and/or Limitation Year which begins on or after January 1, 2002, the statutory limit that applies to each Participant’s annual Compensation for a specific Compensation Determination Period which is taken into account under the Plan; such annual Compensation will not exceed $200,000. However, the $200,000 statutory limit on annual Compensation will be adjusted for cost-of-living increases in accordance with Code §401(a)(17)(B). The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to annual Compensation for the Compensation Determination Period that begins with or within such calendar year. If a Compensation Determination Period is less than 12 consecutive months, then the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the Compensation Determination Period, and the denominator of which is 12. If Compensation for any prior Compensation Determination Period is used in determining a Participant’s Plan benefits for the current Plan Year, then the annual Compensation for such prior Compensation Determination Period is subject to the applicable Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit as in effect for that prior Compensation Determination Period.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 7 of 114		July 2008

1.38

Code §414(s) Compensation. The term “Code §414(s) Compensation” means, for testing purposes (including, but not limited to, the ADP Test and the ACP Test), any compensation that qualifies as a nondiscriminatory definition of compensation under Code §414(s) and the Regulations thereunder. The Administrator is not bound by any elections made in the Adoption Agreement in determining Code §414(s) Compensation. The Administrator may determine on an annual basis (and within its discretion) Code §414(s) Compensation, which will be applied consistently to all Participants for a Plan Year; to all applicable tests that are administered for such Plan Year; and to all plans (including this Plan) of the Sponsoring Employer and Adopting Employers for such Plan Year. Code §414(s) Compensation may be determined over the Plan Year for which the applicable test is being performed or the calendar year ending within such Plan Year. In determining Code §414(s) Compensation, the Administrator within its discretion may take into consideration only the Compensation received while the Employee is a Participant under the component of the Plan being tested, and/or only the Compensation for the portion of the Plan Year during which the Plan was a 401(k) Plan.

1.39

Code §415(c)(3) Compensation. The term “Code §415(c)(3) Compensation” means, for the specific purposes and as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, either Form W-2 Compensation, Code §3401 Compensation, Safe Harbor Code §415 Compensation, or Statutory Code §415 Compensation during the entire Compensation Determination Period that statutorily applies, subject to the following rules:

(a)

Exclusions to Compensation Do Not Apply. Code §415(c)(3) Compensation includes any amounts that may be elected to be excluded from Compensation in the Adoption Agreement.

(b)

Inclusion of Certain Amounts. Code §415(c)(3) Compensation includes any elective deferral as defined in Code §402(g)(3) and any amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer at the election of the Employee which is not includible in gross income by reason of Code §125 (and if elected in the Adoption Agreement, Deemed Code §125 Compensation), Code §132(f)(4), or Code §457.

(c)

Imputed Compensation when Participant Becomes Disabled. If elected in the Adoption Agreement and a Participant becomes permanently and totally disabled (as defined in Code §22(e)(3)) then notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed during the time that the Participant is permanently and totally disabled. The rate that Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed to such Participant is equal to the rate of Code §415(c)(3) Compensation that was paid to the Participant immediately before becoming permanently and totally disabled. The total period in which Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed to a Participant who becomes permanently and totally disabled will be determined pursuant to a nondiscriminatory policy established by the Administrator; however, if Code §415(c)(3) Compensation is imputed to a Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee pursuant to this paragraph, then the continuation of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions to such Participant will be for a fixed or determinable period pursuant to Code §415(c)(3)(C).

(d)

Treatment of Post-Severance Compensation. Effective January 1, 2005, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation includes Post-Severance Compensation.

(e)

Self-Employed Individuals. Code §415(c)(3) Compensation of a Self-Employed Individual will be equal to his or her Earned Income, plus amounts deferred at the election of the Self-Employed Individual that would be includible in gross income but for the rules of Code §402(e)(3), §402(h)(1)(B), §402(k), or §457(b).

1.40

Committee. The term “Committee” means the administrative/advisory group that the Sponsoring Employer may establish, to which the Sponsoring Employer may delegate certain of the Sponsoring Employer’s responsibilities as Administrator. The Sponsoring Employer is permitted to select another name for such administrative/advisory group. The Sponsoring Employer may appoint one or more members to the Committee. Members of the Committee need not be Participants or Beneficiaries, and officers and directors of the Sponsoring Employer are not precluded from serving as members of the Committee.

1.41

Compensation. The term “Compensation” means, for each component or type of contribution under the Plan, an Employee’s Form W-2 Compensation, Code §3401 Compensation, or Safe Harbor Code §415 Compensation, as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, for the Compensation Determination Period as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Treatment of Elective Deferrals and Certain Other Amounts. Any elective deferral as defined in Code §402(g)(3) and any amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer at the election of the Employee which are not includible in gross income by reason of Code §125 (and if elected in the Adoption Agreement, Deemed Code §125 Compensation), Code §132(f)(4), or Code §457 will be included in Compensation or will be excluded from Compensation, as elected in the Adoption Agreement.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 8 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Compensation Prior to Becoming a Participant. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that Compensation received prior to becoming a Participant is not taken in account for allocation purposes, then the Entry Date of Section 2.2 to determine when an Eligible Employee becomes a Participant will be separately determined for each component or type of contribution under the Plan.

(c)

Compensation of Self-Employed Individuals. For purposes of this Plan, the Compensation of a Self-Employed Individual will be equal to his or her Earned Income; however, such Compensation will not exceed the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit.

(d)

Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit. In determining Compensation for all purposes other than for Elective Deferral purposes under Code §402(g), a Participant’s Compensation for any Compensation Determination Period will not exceed the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit.

(e)

Prevailing Wage Compensation. With respect to Prevailing Wage Contribution, the term “Compensation” will be limited to Compensation paid for services performed under a Prevailing Wage Law.

(f)

Compensation for a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan or Safe Harbor 401(m) Plan. The term “Compensation” means, for purposes of a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan or Safe Harbor 401(m) Plan, Compensation as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, except that no dollar limit, other than the Code §401(a)(17) Limit, applies to the Compensation of a NHCE. Furthermore, Compensation for a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan or Safe Harbor 401(m) Plan must qualify as a nondiscriminatory definition of compensation under Code §414(s) and the Regulations thereunder.

(g)

Imputed Compensation when Participant Becomes Disabled. If elected in the Adoption Agreement and a Participant becomes permanently and totally disabled (as defined in Code §22(e)(3)) then notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, Compensation will be imputed during the time that the Participant is permanently and totally disabled for purposes of determining and allocating Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. The rate that Compensation will be imputed to such Participant is equal to the rate of Compensation that was paid to the Participant immediately before becoming permanently and totally disabled. The total period in which Compensation will be imputed to a Participant who becomes permanently and totally disabled will be determined pursuant to a nondiscriminatory policy established by the Administrator; however, if Compensation is imputed to a Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee pursuant to this paragraph, then the continuation of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions to such Participant will be for a fixed or determinable period pursuant to Code §415(c)(3)(C). Any Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions that are made on behalf of a Participant with respect to imputed Compensation must be nonforfeitable when made.

(h)

Compensation for Permitted Disparity Purposes. If a Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution is determined and/or allocated according to the rules of permitted disparity under Code §401(1) and the Regulations thereunder, then Compensation for such purposes must qualify as a nondiscriminatory definition of compensation under Code §414(s) and the Regulations thereunder.

1.42

Compensation Determination Period. The term “Compensation Determination Period” means, for each definition of Compensation as it relates to a particular component or type of contribution under the Plan, either the Plan Year, the Fiscal Year ending with or within the Plan Year, or the calendar year ending with or within the Plan Year, as elected in the Adoption Agreement. However, for purposes of a specific statutory determination (e.g. whether an Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee), the term “Compensation Determination Period” means the period that is stated in this Plan.

1.43

Contribution Percentage. The term “Contribution Percentage” means the ratio (expressed as a percentage and calculated to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point) of the Participant’s Contribution Percentage Amounts to the Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation for the Plan Year, subject to the following rules:

(a)

Contribution Percentage for an HCE in Multiple 401(m) Plans of the Sponsoring Employer. The Contribution Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to such Participant’s accounts under two or more Code §401(m) plans that are maintained by the Sponsoring Employer, will be determined as if the total of such Contribution Percentage Amounts was made under each 401(m) plan. If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or more Code §401(m) plans of the Sponsoring Employer that have different plan years, all Contribution Percentage Amounts made during the Plan Year under all such Code §401(m) plans will be aggregated. For Plan Years beginning prior to 2006 (or the year of such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(m) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), all such Code §401(m) plans ending with or within the same calendar year will be treated as a single Code §401(m) plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain plans will be treated as separate if mandatorily disaggregated under the Code §401(m) Regulations.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 9 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Contribution Percentage for a Participant without Contributions. If no Employee Contributions, Matching Contributions, Elective Contributions, or Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are taken into account in the ACP Test with respect to a Participant for the Plan Year, then the Contribution Percentage of the Participant is zero (0).

1.44

Contribution Percentage Amounts. The term “Contribution Percentage Amounts” means the sum of the Employee Contributions, Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, Qualified Matching Contributions, Elective Deferrals, and Qualified Non-Elective Contributions made under the Plan on behalf of the Participant for the Plan Year. The calculation of a Participant’s Contribution Percentage Amounts is subject to the following rules:

(a)

Timing of Employee Contributions. An amount withheld from an Employee’s pay (or a payment by the Employee to an agent of the Plan) is treated as contributed as an Employee Contribution at the time of such withholding (or payment) if the paid funds are transmitted to the Trust within a reasonable period after the withholding (or payment).

(b)

Recharacterized Elective Contributions Are Included. Excess Contributions which are recharacterized in accordance with Regulation §1.401(k)-2(b)(3) are taken into account as Employee Contributions for the Plan Year that includes the time at which the Excess Contribution is includible in the gross income of the Employee under Regulation §1.401(k)-2(b)(3)(ii).

(c)

Matching Contributions That Are Included. A Matching Contribution is used in determining a Participant’s Contribution Percentage Amount for a Plan Year only if each of the following requirements is satisfied:

(1)

Matching Contribution Allocated Within the Plan Year. The Matching Contribution is allocated to the Employee’s Matching Contribution Account under the terms of the Plan as of an allocation date within that Plan Year.

(2)

Matching Contribution Relates to Deferrals or Employee Contributions for the Plan Year. The Matching Contribution is made on account of (or the Matching Contribution is allocated on the basis of) the Participant’s Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions for that Plan Year.

(3)

Matching Contribution Must Be Contributed within 12 Months. The Matching Contribution is actually paid to the Trust no later than the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year that contains the allocation date for the Matching Contribution.

(d)

Elective Deferrals May Be Included in the Contribution Percentage Amounts. The Sponsoring Employer also may elect to use Elective Deferrals in the Contribution Percentage Amounts so long as (a) the ADP Test is met before the Elective Deferrals are used in the ACP Test, and (b) the ADP Test continues to be met following the exclusion of the Elective Deferrals used to meet the ACP Test, subject to the following rules:

(1)

Elective Deferrals in a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan Cannot Be Used. Elective Deferrals in a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan described in Regulation §1.401(k)-3 cannot be used as Contribution Percentage Amounts.

(2)

Plans Must Be Permitted to be Aggregated. The plan that provides for Employee Contributions and/or Matching Contributions and the plan to which the Elective Deferrals are made are plans that would be permitted to be aggregated under Regulation §1.401(m)-1(b)(4).

(3)

Plan Year Change and Aggregation. If the Plan Year of the plan that provides for Employee Contributions and/or Matching Contributions is changed to satisfy the requirement under Regulation §1.410(b)-7(d)(5) that aggregated plans have the same Plan Year, then Elective Deferrals may be taken into account in the resulting short Plan Year, but only if such Elective Deferrals could have been taken into account under an ADP Test for a plan with that same short Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 10 of 114		July 2008

(e)

Qualified Non-Elective Contributions that may be used as Contribution Percentage Amounts. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions may be taken into account in determining a Participant’s Contribution Percentage Amounts for a Plan Year, but only to the extent that the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions satisfy the following requirements:

(1)

Timing of Allocation. The Qualified Non-Elective Contribution is allocated to the Participant’s Account as of a date within that Plan Year (within the meaning of Regulation §1.401(k)-2(a)(4)(i)(A)). Consequently, under the Prior Year Testing Method, in order to be used in calculating the Contribution Percentage Amounts for a Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year (the Plan Year prior to the Plan Year that is being tested), the Qualified Non-Elective Contribution must be contributed no later than the end of the 12-month period following the Applicable Year even though the Applicable Year is different than the Plan Year that is being tested. Furthermore, under the Current Year Testing Method, in order to be taken into account in calculating the Contribution Percentage Amounts for a Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Applicable Plan Year (the Plan Year that is being tested), the Qualified Non-Elective Contribution must be contributed no later than the end of the 12-month period following the Plan Year that is being tested.

(2)

Requirement that Qualified Non-Elective Contributions Satisfy Code §401(a)(4). The amount of Qualified Non-Elective Contributions satisfies the requirements of Code §401(a)(4) and Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–1(b)(2). If the Sponsoring Employer is applying the special rule for Employer-wide plans in Regulation §1.414(r)–1(c)(2)(ii) with respect to the Plan, then the determination of whether the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions satisfy the requirements of Code §401(a)(4) must be made on an Employer-wide basis, regardless of whether the plans to which the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are made are satisfying the requirements of Code §410(b) on an Employer-wide basis. If the Sponsoring Employer is treated as operating qualified separate lines of business and does not apply the special rule for Employer-wide plans in Regulation §1.414(r)–1(c)(2)(ii) with respect to the Plan, then the determination of whether the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions satisfy the requirements of Code §401(a)(4) is not permitted to be made on an Employer-wide basis regardless of whether the plans to which the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are made are satisfying the requirements of Code §410(b) on an Employer-wide basis.

(3)

Aggregation Must Be Permitted. The plan that provides for Employee Contributions and/or Matching Contributions and the plan to which the Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are made, are plans that would be permitted to be aggregated under Regulation §1.401(m)–1(b)(4). If the Plan Year of the plan that provides for Employee Contributions and/or Matching Contributions is changed to satisfy the requirement under Regulation §1.410(b)–7(d)(5) that aggregated plans have the same Plan Year, then Qualified Non-Elective Contributions may be taken into account in the resulting short Plan Year, but only if such Qualified Non-Elective Contributions could have been taken into account under an ADP Test for a plan with that same short Plan Year.

(4)

Limitation on Disproportionate QNECs. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions cannot be taken into account for purposes of the Contribution Percentage Amounts of a Plan Year for a Non-Highly Compensated Employee to the extent that the QNECs exceed the product of (i) that Non-Highly Compensated Employee’s Code §414(s) Compensation, multiplied by (i) the greater of (A) 5% (or 10% of a Non-Highly Compensated Employee’s Code §414(s) Compensation with respect to an Employer’s obligation to make Prevailing Wage Contributions to the Plan), or (B) two times the Plan’s Representative Contribution Rate. Any Qualified Non-Elective Contribution taken into account under an ADP Test under Regulation §1.401(k)–2(a)(6) (including the determination of the Representative Contribution Rate for purposes of Regulation §1.401(k)–2(a)(6)(iv)(B)), is not permitted to be taken into account for purposes of the ACP Test (including the determination of the Representative Contribution Rate for purposes of the ACP Test).

(5)

Prohibition Against Double-Counting. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions cannot be taken into account for purposes of the Contribution Percentage Amounts to the extent such contributions are taken into account for purposes of satisfying any other ACP Test, any ADP Test, or the requirements of Regulation §1.401(k)–3, §1.401(m)-3 or §1.401(k)–4. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions that are made pursuant to Regulation §1.401(k)-3(b) cannot be taken into account under the ACP Test.

(6)

Switching the Testing Method. If this Plan switches from the Current Year Testing Method to the Prior Year Testing Method pursuant to Regulation §1.401(m)–2(c)(1), Qualified Non-Elective Contributions that are taken into account under the Current Year Testing Method for a Plan Year may not be taken into account under the Prior Year Testing Method for the next Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 11 of 114		July 2008

(f)

Qualified Matching Contributions Used to Satisfy ADP Test Are Excluded. Qualified Matching Contributions that are taken into account for the ADP Test of Code §401(k)(3) under Regulation §1.401(k)–2(a)(6) are not taken into account in determining a Participant’s Contribution Percentage Amounts.

(g)

Forfeited Matching Contributions Are Excluded. Contribution Percentage Amounts will not include either the non-Vested portion of Matching Contributions that are forfeited to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions, or Matching Contributions (both the Vested and non-Vested portions) that are forfeited because they relate to Excess Deferrals, Excess Contributions, or Excess Aggregate Contributions.

(h)

Additional Employee Contributions or Matching Contributions of Code §414(u) Are Excluded. Contribution Percentage Amounts will not include additional Employee Contributions and Matching Contributions that are made by reason of a Participant’s qualified military service under Code §414(u) for the Plan Year for which the contributions are made, or for any other Plan Year.

1.45

Counting of Hours Method. The term “Counting of Hours Method” means a method for crediting service for eligibility, for Vesting, for determining a Participant’s allocation, and/or for applying the allocation conditions as elected in the Adoption Agreement. Under the Counting of Hours Method, an Employee is credited with the number of Hours of Service for which the Employee is paid or entitled to payment (or such other circumstances for which Hours of Service are credited), pursuant to the definition of Hour of Service.

1.46

Current Year Testing Method. The term “Current Year Testing Method” means the nondiscrimination testing method in which (a) for purposes of the ADP Test, the ADP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested is compared to the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested; and (b) for purposes of the ACP Test, the ACP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested is compared to the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested.

1.47

Deductible Employee Contribution. The term “Deductible Employee Contribution” means a contribution that was made by a Participant to this Plan or to a predecessor plan for any Plan Year beginning before January 1, 1987 and which was tax deductible by the Participant at the time it was made.

1.48

Deductible Employee Contribution Account. The term “Deductible Employee Contribution Account” means the account to which a Participant’s Deductible Employee Contributions have been allocated.

1.49

Deemed Aggregated Allocation Groups. The term “Deemed Aggregated Allocation Groups” means, for purposes of determining the limitation in the number of Allocation Rates that are permitted when the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using allocation groups, all of the separate allocation groups that have the same Allocation Rate. No Employee can be assigned to more than one Deemed Aggregated Allocation Group for a Plan Year.

1.50

Deemed Code §125 Compensation. The term “Deemed §125 Compensation” means an amount that is excludable from the gross income of the Employee under Code §106 that is not available to the Employee in cash in lieu of group health coverage under a Code §125 arrangement solely because that Employee is not able to certify that he or she has other health coverage. Amounts are Deemed Code §125 Compensation only if the Employer does not otherwise request or collect information regarding the Employee’s other health coverage as part of the enrollment process for the health plan.

1.51

Deemed IRA Contribution. The term “Deemed IRA Contribution” means an Individual Retirement Account contribution made to this Plan, as elected in the Adoption Agreement.

1.52

(a)

Definition. The term “Disability” means a physical or mental impairment arising after an Employee has become a Participant which, as elected in the Adoption Agreement, either (1) in the opinion of a physician acceptable to the Administrator, totally and permanently prevents the Participant from engaging in any occupation for pay or profit; (2) in the opinion of a physician acceptable to the Administrator, totally and permanently prevents the Participant from performing his or her customary and usual duties for the Employer; (3) in the opinion of the Social Security Administration, qualifies the Participant for disability benefits under the Social Security Act in effect on the date that the Participant suffers the mental or physical impairment; or (4) in the opinion of the insurance company, qualifies the Participant for benefits under an Employer-sponsored long-term disability plan which is administered by an independent third party. With regard go clause (1) and clause (2) above, if a difference of opinion arises between the Participant and the Administrator as to whether the Participant has suffered a Disability, it will be settled by a majority decision of three physicians, one to be appointed by the Administrator, one to be appointed by the Participant, and the third to be appointed by the two physicians first appointed herein.

(b)

Definition of Disability If No Long-Term Disability Plan In Place and/or In Force. If the definition (or one of the definitions) of Disability as elected by the Sponsoring Employer is the one in paragraph (a)(4) above (a mental or physical impairment which, in the opinion of the insurance company, qualifies the Participant for benefits under an Employer-sponsored long-term disability plan which is administered by an independent third party) and there is not an Employer-sponsored long-term disability plan in place and/or in force at any point while the election of this definition of Disability is in effect, then this definition of Disability will be replaced by the provisions of paragraph (a)(3) above (a mental or physical impairment which, in the opinion of the Social Security Administration, qualifies the Participant for disability benefits under the Social Security Act in effect on the date that the Participant suffers the mental or physical impairment) during the time that an Employer-sponsored long-term disability plan is not in place and/or in force.

(c)

Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the term “Disability” will not include any physical or mental impairment that is the result of any of the following exceptions, if elected in the Adoption Agreement: (1) the excessive use of drugs, intoxicants, or other substances; (2) an intentionally self-inflicted injury or sickness; or (3) an injury suffered as a result of an unlawful or criminal act by the Participant.

1.56

Distribution Calendar Year. The term “Distribution Calendar Year” means, for purposes of required minimum distributions under Section 5.9, a calendar year for which a minimum distribution is required. For distributions beginning before the Participant’s death, the first Distribution Calendar Year is the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year that contains the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. If a Participant elects the Life Expectancy method, then for distributions beginning after the Participant’s death, the first Distribution Calendar Year is the calendar year in which distributions are required to begin under Section 5.9(b)(2)(B). The required minimum distribution for the Participant’s first Distribution Calendar Year will be made on or before the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. The required minimum distribution for other Distribution Calendar Years, including the required minimum distribution for the Distribution Calendar Year in which the Participant’s Required Beginning Date occurs, will be made on or before December 31 of that Distribution Calendar Year.

1.57

Domestic Partner. The term “Domestic Partner” means the individual who is recognized to be the domestic partner of the Participant through policies and procedures that are established by the Sponsoring Employer and that may reflect the law of a State or a Commonwealth (or a political subdivision of a State or a Commonwealth).

1.58

Early Retirement Age. The term “Early Retirement Age” means the Early Retirement Age, if any, as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement.

1.59

Early Retirement Date. The term “Early Retirement Date” means the Early Retirement Date, if any, as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement.

1.60

Earned Income. The term “Earned Income” means the net earnings from self-employment in the trade or business with respect to which the Plan is established, for which personal services of the individual are a material income-producing factor. Net earnings will be determined without regard to items not included in gross income and the deductions allocable thereto. Net earnings will be reduced by deductible contributions by the Employer to a qualified retirement plan. Net earnings will be determined with regard to the deduction allowed to the Employer by Code §164(f) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1989.

1.61

Elapsed Time Method. The term “Elapsed Time Method” means a method for crediting service for eligibility, for Vesting, for determining a Participant’s allocation, and/or for applying the allocation conditions as elected in the Adoption Agreement, pursuant to the definition of Period of Service.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 13 of 114		July 2008

1.62

Elective Deferral. The term “Elective Deferral” means Employer contributions made to the Plan at the election of the Participant in lieu of cash Compensation, and will include contributions made pursuant to a salary deferral agreement or other deferral mechanism. In any taxable year, a Participant’s Elective Deferral is the sum of all Employer contributions made on behalf of such Participant pursuant to an election to defer under (a) any qualified cash or deferred arrangement under Code §401(k); (b) any salary reduction simplified employee pension described in Code §408(k)(6); (c) any SIMPLE IRA Plan described in Code §408(p); (d) any plan under Code §501(c)(18); and (e) any Employer contributions made on the behalf of a Participant for the purchase of an annuity contract under Code §403(b) pursuant to a Salary Deferral Agreement. For years beginning after 2005, the term “Elective Deferral” includes Pre-Tax Elective Deferrals and Roth Elective Deferrals. An Elective Deferral must relate to Compensation that either (a) would have been received by the Employee in the Plan Year but for the Employee’s election to defer; or (b) if elected by the Sponsoring Employer for purposes of the ADP Test, is attributable to services performed by the Employee in the Plan Year and, but for the Employee’s election to defer, would have been received by the Employee within 2 ¹ / ₂ months after the close of the Plan Year. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer for purposes of the ADP Test, then this Plan will provide for Elective Deferrals that relate to Compensation that would have been received after the close of a Plan Year to be considered for such prior Plan Year rather than the Plan Year in which the Compensation would have been received.

1.63

Eligibility Computation Period. The term “Eligibility Computation Period” means a period of twelve (12) consecutive months, which is used for purposes of eligibility to participate in the Plan (or a component of the Plan). An Employee’s initial Eligibility Computation Period will begin on his or her Employment Commencement Date. As elected in the Adoption Agreement, either (a) each subsequent Eligibility Computation Period will begin on each anniversary of the Employee’s Employment Commencement Date; or (b) the second Eligibility Computation Period will begin on the first day of the Plan Year which begins prior to the first anniversary of the Employee’s Employment Commencement Date (regardless of whether the Employee is credited with a specific number of Hours of Service during the initial Eligibility Computation Period) and each subsequent Eligibility Computation Period will consist of each subsequent Plan Year.

1.64

Eligible Employee. The term “Eligible Employee” means any Employee who is a member of an eligible class of Employees and who is not excluded from participating in the Plan (or a component of the Plan), as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. In addition, if the Plan utilizes the failsafe allocation provisions of Section 3.15, then the term “ Eligible Employee” means any Employee who receives a failsafe allocation, even if such Employee was previously excluded from participating in the Plan (or a component of the Plan). Furthermore, the Sponsoring Employer may elect at any time to reclassify any Employee that had been excluded from participating in the Plan (or a component of the Plan) to be an Eligible Employee through a Plan amendment that is retroactively applied for one or more prior Plan Years because the Plan (or a component of the Plan) failed to satisfy for such Plan Year one of the tests set forth in Code §410(b)(1)(A), (B) or (C), or for any other reason required to maintain the tax exempt status of the Plan.

1.65

Employee. The term “Employee” means (a) any person who is reported on the payroll records of the Employer as an employee and who is deemed by the Employer to be a common law employee; (b) any person who is reported on the payroll records of an Affiliated Employer as an employee and who is deemed by the Affiliated Employer to be a common law employee (even if the Affiliated Employer is not an Adopting Employer), except for purposes of determining eligibility to participate in the Plan if the Sponsoring Employer utilizes a Non-Standardized Adoption Agreement; (c) any Self-Employed Individual who derives Earned Income from the Employer; and (d) any person who is considered a Leased Employee but who (1) is not covered by a plan described in Code §414(n)(5), or (2) is covered by a plan described in Code §414(n)(5) but Leased Employees constitute more than 20% of the Employer’s non-highly compensated workforce. However, the term “Employee” will not include an Independent Contractor. If an Independent Contractor is later determined by the Employer, a court, or governmental agency to be an Employee or to have been an Employee of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, and so long as such individual is an Eligible Employee, then such individual will only be eligible to participate in the Plan in accordance with the requirements of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS) under Revenue Procedure 2006-27 and subsequent guidance.

1.66

Employee Contribution. The term “Employee Contribution” means any contribution made to the Plan by or on behalf of a Participant that is included in the Participant’s gross income in the year in which the contribution is made (other than Roth Elective Deferrals) and that is maintained under a separate account to which earnings and losses are allocated. Employee Contributions include Voluntary Employee Contributions and Mandatory Employee Contributions.

1.67

Employer. The term “Employer” means the Sponsoring Employer and any Adopting Employer.

1.68

Employment Commencement Date. The term “Employment Commencement Date” means the first day that an Employee is credited with an Hour of Service for an Employer or an Affiliated Employer.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 14 of 114		July 2008

1.69

Equivalent Accrual Rate. The term “Equivalent Accrual Rate” means the annual benefit that is the result of normalizing the increase in the Participant’s Account balance during the measurement period, divided by the number of years in which the Participant benefited under the Plan during the measurement period, and expressed either as a dollar amount or as a percentage of the Participant’s average annual Code §414(s) Compensation. A measurement period that includes future years may not be used. For purposes of determining an Equivalent Accrual Rate, the following rules apply:

(a)

Determination of Account Balance. The increase in the Participant’s Account balance during the measurement period taken into account does not include income, expenses, gains, or losses allocated during the measurement period that are attributable to the Participant’s Account balance as of the beginning of the measurement period, but does include any additional amounts that would have been included in the increase in the Participant’s Account balance but for the fact that the additional amounts were previously distributed (including a reasonable adjustment for interest). If the measurement period is the current Plan Year, the Sponsoring Employer may also elect to disregard the income, expenses, gains, and losses allocated during the current Plan Year that are attributable to the increase in the Participant’s Account balance since the beginning of the Plan Year, and thus determine the increase in Participant’s Account balance during the Plan Year taking into account only allocations described in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-2(c)(2)(ii). In addition, the Sponsoring Employer may disregard distributions to a Non-Highly Compensated Employee as well as distributions to any Employee in Plan Years beginning before a selected date no later than January 1, 1986.

(b)

Normalization. The Participant’s Account balance determined under paragraph (a) is normalized into a single-sum benefit that is immediately and unconditionally payable to the Employee. A standard interest rate, and a straight life annuity factor that is based on the same or a different standard interest rate and on a standard mortality table, must be used in normalizing this benefit. In addition, no mortality may be assumed prior to the Employee’s testing age.

(c)

Options. Any of the optional rules in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-3(d)(3) (e.g., imputation of permitted disparity) may be applied in determining an Employee’s Equivalent Accrual Rate by substituting the Employee’s Equivalent Accrual Rate (determined without regard to this option) for the Employee’s Normal Accrual Rate where appropriate. For this purpose, however, the last sentence of the fresh-start alternative in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-3(d)(3)(iii)(A) (dealing with Compensation adjustments to the frozen accrued benefit) is not applicable. No other options are available in determining an Employee’s Equivalent Accrual Rate except those (e.g., selection of alternative measurement periods) specifically provided in this definition. None of the optional special rules in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-3(f) (e.g., determination of benefits on other than a Plan Year basis under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-3(f)(6)) is available.

(d)

Consistency Rule. Equivalent Accrual Rates must be determined in a consistent manner for all Employees for the Plan Year. The same measurement periods and standard interest rates must be used, and any available options must be applied consistently if at all.

1.70

ERISA. The term “ERISA” means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Department of Labor Regulations, and Advisory Opinions and other rulings promulgated by the Department of Labor (or any agency thereunder). All citations to sections of ERISA and the Department of Labor Regulations are to such sections as they may from time to time be amended or renumbered.

1.71

Excess Annual Additions. The term “Excess Annual Additions” means an amount of Annual Additions credited to a Participant’s Account that exceeds the maximum Annual Additions limitation set forth in Section 6.1 for any Limitation Year. If Excess Annual Additions are treated according to Section 6.4, then such Excess Annual Additions will not be deemed Annual Additions.

1.72

Excess Aggregate Contributions. The term “Excess Aggregate Contributions” means, with respect to any Plan Year, the excess of (a) the aggregate Contribution Percentage Amounts used in computing the numerator of the Contribution Percentage actually made on behalf of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan Year, over (b) the maximum Contribution Percentage Amounts permitted by the ACP Test (determined by hypothetically reducing Contribution Percentage Amounts made on behalf of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees in order of their Contribution Percentages beginning with the highest of such Contribution Percentages). Such determination will be made after first determining Excess Elective Deferrals and then determining Excess Contributions.

1.73

Excess Compensation. The term “Excess Compensation” means the amount of a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation in excess of (a) the Taxable Wage Base in effect on the first day of the Plan Year, (b) a percentage (that is less than 100% percent) of the Taxable Wage Base in effect on the first day of the Plan Year, or (c) a stated dollar amount that is less than the Taxable Wage Base in effect on the first day of the Plan Year, as elected in the Adoption Agreement.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 15 of 114		July 2008

1.74

Excess Contributions. The term “Excess Contributions” means, with respect to any Plan Year, the excess of (a) the aggregate amount of Employer contributions actually taken into account in computing the Actual Deferral Percentage of HCEs for such Plan Year, over (b) the maximum amount of such contributions permitted by the ADP Test (determined by hypothetically reducing contributions made on behalf of HCEs in the order of their Actual Deferral Percentages, beginning with the highest of such percentages).

1.75

Excess Elective Deferrals. The term “Excess Elective Deferrals” means those Elective Deferrals of a Participant that either (a) are made during the Participant’s taxable year and exceed the dollar limitation under Code §402(g) (including, if applicable, the Catch-up Contribution Limit as defined in Code §414(v)) for such taxable year; or (b) are made during a calendar year and exceed the dollar limitation under Code §402(g) (including, if applicable, the Catch-Up Contribution Limit as defined in Code §414(v)) for the Participant’s taxable year beginning in such calendar year, counting only Elective Deferrals made under this Plan and any other plan, contract or arrangement maintained by the Sponsoring Employer.

1.76

401(k) Plan. The term “401(k) Plan” means a plan which permits the plan’s participants to have Elective Deferrals made on their behalf to the plan.

1.77

401(m) Plan. The term “401(m) Plan” means a plan which permits or requires the plan’s participants to make Employee Contributions to the plan, and/or which allocates Matching Contributions to participants in the plan.

1.78

Fiscal Year. The term “Fiscal Year” means either (a) the Sponsoring Employer’s 12 consecutive month accounting year beginning and ending on the dates indicated in Adoption Agreement, or (b) the Sponsoring Employer’s 52-53 week accounting year that either begins or ends on the date indicated in Adoption Agreement (unless there is a short Fiscal Year as elected in the Adoption Agreement). If the Fiscal Year is changed, a short Fiscal Year is established beginning the day after the last day of the Fiscal Year in effect before this change and ending on the last day of the new Fiscal Year.

1.79

Forfeiture. The term “Forfeiture” means generally the amount by which a Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions exceeds his or her Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions upon the date the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement. Furthermore, the term “Forfeiture” means the non-Vested portion of Matching Contributions that are removed from a Participant’s Account to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions, and Matching Contributions (both the Vested and non-Vested portions) removed from a Participant’s Account because such Matching Contributions relate to Excess Deferrals, Excess Contributions, or Excess Aggregate Contributions. Lastly, the term “Forfeiture” means any amount that is removed from a Participant’s Account pursuant to any Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS) program or any other correction guidance that is issued by the Internal Revenue Service. No Forfeitures will occur solely because (a) a Participant withdrawals Employee Contributions from the Plan; (b) a Participant withdrawals Elective Deferrals from the Plan; or (c) a Participant transfers employment from the Sponsoring Employer to an Affiliated Employer or Adopting Employer (or vice versa).

1.80

Forfeiture Account. The term “Forfeiture Account” means the notational bookkeeping account into which all Forfeitures are placed pending allocation (or other use) pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

1.81

Form W-2 Compensation. The term “Form W-2 Compensation” means wages within the meaning of Code §3401(a) and all other payments of compensation to an Employee by the Employer (in the course of the Employer’s trade or business) which is actually paid or made available and is included in the Employee’s gross income for which the Employer is required to furnish the Employee a Form W-2 under Code §6041(d), §6051(a)(3) and §6052. Form W-2 Compensation must be determined without regard to any rules under Code §3401(a) that limit remuneration included in wages based on the nature or location of the employment or services performed (such as the exception for agricultural labor in Code §3401(a)(2)).

1.82

Gradually Increasing Age or Service Schedule. The term “Gradually Increasing Age or Service Schedule” means, for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, that the allocation formula for all Participants under the Plan provides for a single schedule of Allocation Rates under which:

(a)

Series of Bands. The schedule defines a series of bands based on Age, Years of Service (or Periods of Service), or the number of points representing the sum of Age and Years of Service (or Periods of Service) with respect to age and service points, under which the same Allocation Rate applies to all employees whose Age, Years of Service (or Periods of Service), or Age and service points are within each band; and


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 16 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Smoothly Increasing at Regular Intervals. The Allocation Rates under the schedule increase smoothly at regular intervals, within the following meanings:

(1)

Smoothly Increasing Schedule of Allocation Rates. A schedule of Allocation Rates increases smoothly if the Allocation Rate for each band within the schedule is greater than the Allocation Rate for the immediately preceding band (i.e., the band with the next lower number of years of Age, Years of Service (or Periods of Service), or Age and service points) by no more than 5 percentage (5%). However, a schedule of Allocation Rates will not be treated as increasing smoothly if the ratio of the allocation rate for any band to the rate for the immediately preceding band is more than 2.0 or if it exceeds the ratio of Allocation Rates between the two immediately preceding bands.

(2)

Regular Intervals. A schedule of Allocation Rates has regular intervals of Age, Years of Service (or Periods of Service), or Age and service points, if each band, other than the band associated with the highest Age, Years of Service (or Periods of Service), or Age and service points, is the same length. For this purpose, if the schedule is based on Age, the first band is deemed to be of the same length as the other bands if it ends at or before age 25. If the first age band ends after Age 25, then, in determining whether the length of the first band is the same as the length of other bands, the starting age for the first age band is permitted to be treated as Age 25 or any Age earlier than 25. For a schedule of allocation rates based on Age and service points, the rules of the preceding two sentences are applied by substituting 25 Age and service points for age 25. For a schedule of allocation rates based on service, the starting service for the first service band is permitted to be treated as one Year of Service (or Period of Service) or any lesser amount of service.

(c)

Minimum Allocation Rates Permitted. A schedule of Allocation Rates under the Plan is considered to increase smoothly at regular intervals if a minimum uniform Allocation Rate is provided for all Participants or the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation described in Code §416(c)(2) is provided for all Non-Key Employees (either because the Plan is Top Heavy or without regard to whether the Plan is Top Heavy) if the schedule satisfies one of the following conditions:

(1)

Hypothetical Schedule. The Allocation Rates under the Plan that are greater than the minimum Allocation Rate can be included in a hypothetical schedule of Allocation Rates that increases smoothly at regular intervals, where the hypothetical schedule has a lowest allocation rate no lower than 1% of Code §414(s) Compensation; or

(2)

Schedule of Allocation Rates based on Age. If the Plan is using a schedule of Allocation Rates based on Age, for each Age band in the schedule that provides an Allocation Rate greater than the minimum Allocation Rate, then there could be a Participant in that Age band with an Equivalent Accrual Rate that is less than or equal to the Equivalent Accrual Rate that would apply to a Participant whose Age is the highest Age for which the Allocation Rate equals the minimum Allocation Rate.

1.83

HCE. The term “HCE” means a Highly Compensated Employee.

1.84

Highly Compensated Employee. The term “Highly Compensated Employee” means any Employee who (a) was a 5% owner as defined in Code §416(i)(1)(B)(i) at any time during the Plan Year or during the look-back year. In determining whether an Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee based on his or her status as a 5% owner, the look-back year will be the 12-month period immediately preceding the Plan Year for which the determination is being made; or (b) for the look-back year, had Code §415(c)(3) Compensation in excess of $80,000 as adjusted under Code §415(d) (except that the base period will be the calendar quarter ending September 30, 1996). In determining if an Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee based on Code §415(c)(3) Compensation, the look-back year will be the 12-month period immediately preceding the Plan Year for which the determination is being made, unless the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement for any Plan Year that the look-back year will be the calendar year beginning with or within the look-back year; and the top paid group election set forth in Code §414(q)(3) will not be applied to this Plan unless otherwise elected for any Plan Year by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. In determining if an individual is a highly compensated former Employee, the rules for determining which Employees are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year for which the determination is being made (in accordance with Temporary Regulation §1.414(q)-1T, A-4 and Notice 97-45) will be applied. If the Employer maintains more than one qualified retirement plan, the terms of this Section will be applied in a uniform, consistent manner to all such plans.

1.85

Hour of Service. The term “Hour of Service” means, with respect to any Plan provision in which Service is determined by the Elapsed Time Method, each hour for which an Employee is paid, or is entitled to payment, by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer for the performance of duties. With respect to any Plan provision in which Service is determined by the Counting of Hours Method, the term “Hour of Service” means the following:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 17 of 114		July 2008

(a)

Determination of Hours. The term “Hour of Service” means (1) each hour for which an Employee is paid, or entitled to payment, for the performance of duties for the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, which will be credited to the Employee for the computation period in which the duties are performed; (2) each hour for which an Employee is paid, or entitled to payment, by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer on account of a period of time during which no duties are performed (irrespective of whether the employment relationship has terminated) due to vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity (including disability), layoff, jury duty, military duty or leave of absence, except that no more than 501 Hours of Service will be credited under this clause (2) for any single continuous period (regardless of whether such period occurs in a single computation period); and (3) each hour for which back pay, irrespective of mitigation of damages, is either awarded or agreed to by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, except that the same Hours of Service will not be credited both under clause (1) or clause (2), as the case may be, and under this clause (3), and these Hours of Service will be credited to the Employee for the computation period or periods to which the award or agreement pertains rather than the computation period in which the award, agreement or payment is made. Hours of Service under this paragraph will be calculated and credited pursuant to Department of Labor Regulation §2530.200b-2, which is incorporated herein by reference. Furthermore, Hours of Service will be credited for any individual who is considered to be an Employee under Code §414(n) for purposes of this Plan.

(b)

Maternity/Paternity Leave. Solely for purposes of determining whether a Break in Service has occurred in a computation period for purposes of an Employee’s eligibility for Plan participation, Vesting, and benefit accrual/allocation, an individual on Maternity or Paternity Leave will receive credit for up to 501 Hours of Service which would otherwise have been credited to such individual but for such absence, or in any case in which such hours cannot be determined, eight (8) Hours of Service per day of such absence. The Hours of Service credited for a Maternity or Paternity Leave will be credited in the computation period in which the absence begins if the crediting is necessary to prevent a Break in Service in that computation period, or in all other cases, in the following computation period.

(c)

Use of Equivalencies. Notwithstanding paragraph (a), the Administrator may elect for all Employees or for one or more different classifications of Employees (provided such classifications are reasonable, are consistently applied, and are nondiscriminatory) to apply one or more of the following equivalency methods in determining an Employee’s Hours of Service. Under such equivalency methods, an Employee will be credited with (1) 190 Hours of Service for each month that he or she would credited with at least one Hour of Service during that month; (2) 95 Hours of Service for each semi-monthly period that he or she would credited with at least one Hour of Service during that semi-monthly period; (3) 45 Hours of Service for each week that he or she would credited with at least one Hour of Service during that week; and/or (4) 10 Hours of Service for each day that he or she would credited with at least one Hour of Service during that day.

1.86

Hypothetical Entry Date. The term “Hypothetical Entry Date” means, with respect to a Plan (or a component of a Plan) that provides that Otherwise Excludable Participants are eligible to participate in the Plan (or component of the Plan), the date that an Otherwise Excludable Participant would hypothetically enter the Plan (or component of the Plan) and would no longer be considered an Otherwise Excludable Participant had the Plan (or component of the Plan) utilized the statutory minimum age and service requirements under Code §410(a)(1)(A) as the eligibility requirements for the Plan (or component of the Plan), as elected in the Adoption Agreement.

1.87

Immediately Distributable. The term “Immediately Distributable” means any part of the Participant’s benefit that could be distributed to the Participant (or the Participant’s surviving Spouse) before the Participant reaches (or would have reached if not deceased) the later of his or her Normal Retirement Age or Age 62.

1.88

Independent Contractor. The term “Independent Contractor” means an individual who is not reported on the payroll records of the Employer or an Affiliated Employer as a common law employee. The determination of whether an individual is an Independent Contractor will be based upon the facts and circumstances and upon the guidance of Revenue Ruling 87-41.

1.89

Key Employee. The term “Key Employee” means, in determining whether the Plan is Top Heavy for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, any Employee, former Employee or deceased Employee who at any time during the Plan Year that includes the Determination Date is (a) an officer of the Employer having annual Code §415(c)(3) Compensation greater than $130,000 (as adjusted under Code §416(i)(1)(A) for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2002); (b) a 5% owner as defined in Code §416(i)(1)(B)(i); or (c) a 1% owner as defined in Code §416(i)(1)(B)(ii) whose annual Code §415(c)(3) Compensation is more than $150,000. The determination of who is a Key Employee will be made in accordance with Code §416(i)(1), the applicable Regulations, and other guidance issued thereunder. With respect to Employees who are treated as Key Employees by reason of being officers pursuant to clause (a), the following rules apply:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 18 of 114		July 2008

(a)

Definition of Officer. The term “officer” means generally an administrative executive who is in regular and continued service (a continuity of service), and excludes an individual who is employed for a special and single transaction. Whether an individual is an officer will be determined upon the basis of all the facts and circumstances, including the source of the individual’s authority, the term for which the individual is elected or appointed, and the nature and extent of the individual’s duties. An Employee who merely has the title of an officer but not the authority of an officer is not an officer for purposes of determining whether the Employee is a Key Employee. Similarly, an Employee who does not have the title of an officer but has the authority of an officer is an officer for purposes of determining whether the Employee is a Key Employee.

(b)

Number of Officers Taken Into Account. There is no minimum number of officers that must be taken into account. After aggregating all Employees (including Leased Employees) of the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers, there is a maximum limit to the number of officers that are to be taken into account as officers for the entire group consisting of the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers. The number of Employees that the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers has for the Plan Year containing the Determination Date is the greatest number of Employees the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers had during that Plan Year, and Employees include only those individuals who perform services for the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers during that Plan Year. However, in determining the number of officers taken into account, Employees described in Code §414(q)(5) will be excluded. If the number of Employees (including part-time Employees) of the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers is less than or equal to 30 Employees, then no more than 3 Employees will be treated as Key Employees for the Plan Year containing the Determination Date by reason of being officers. If the number of Employees of the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers is greater than 30 but less than or equal to 500, then no more than 10% of the number of Employees will be treated as Key Employees by reason of being officers. If 10% of the number of Employees is not an integer, then the maximum number of individuals to be treated as Key Employees by reason of being officers will be increased to the next integer. If the number of Employees of the Sponsoring Employer and Affiliated Employers exceeds 500, then no more than 50 Employees will be treated as Key Employees for the Plan Year containing the Determination Date by reason of being officers.

Matching Contributions With Respect to Elective Deferrals. If the Plan provides a Matching Contribution with respect to a Participant’s Elective Deferrals (but not Employee Contributions), then generally the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions made for a Participant divided by the Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year. If the Matching Rate is not the same for all levels of Elective Deferrals for a Participant, the Participant’s Matching Rate is determined by assuming that a Participant’s Elective Deferrals are equal to 6% of such Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation.

(b)

Matching Contributions With Respect to Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions. If the Plan provides a Matching Contribution with respect to a Participant’s Employee Contributions and Elective Deferrals, then generally the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions made for a Participant divided by the sum of the Participant’s Employee Contributions and Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year.

Notwithstanding the above, in determining the Benefiting Participants for purposes of the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway, the permissive disaggregation rules under Regulation §1.410(b)-6(b)(3)(ii) and §1.410(b)-7(c)(3) will be applied. The Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway is subject to the following rules:

(a)

Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway Amount. The amount of the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway is equal to the lesser of:

(1)

7.5% of Code §415(c)(3) Compensation; or

(2)

An Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate based upon the following formulae:

(A)

One-Third Formula. If the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest aggregate allocation rate is less than 15%, then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate for each NHCE must be at least one-third (1/3) of the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate;

(B)

5% Formula. If the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate is between 15% and 25%, then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate for each NHCE must be at least 5% of Code §415(c)(3) Compensation; or

(C)

5% Plus Formula. If the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate exceeds 25%, then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate for each NHCE must be at least 5% plus one percentage point for each five percentage point increment (or portion thereof) by which the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate exceeds 25% (e.g., if the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate exceeds 25% but not 30%, then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate for each NHCE must be at least 6%; if the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of the HCE with the highest Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate exceeds 30% but not 35%, then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate for each NHCE must be at least 7%).

(b)

Averaging of Equivalent Allocation Rates for NHCEs. For purposes of this definition, the Plan is permitted to treat each Non-Highly Compensated Employee who benefits under the defined benefit plan as having an equivalent normal allocation rate equal to the average of the equivalent normal allocation rates under the defined benefit plan for all Non-Highly Compensated Employees benefiting under that plan.

(c)

No Permitted Disparity. For purposes of this definition, the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate must not take into account the imputation of permitted disparity under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7.

For purposes of determining if the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway of paragraph (a) has been satisfied, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be limited to the Participant’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation on and after a Participant’s Entry Date of the Plan’s component subject to the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway.

(e)

Treatment of Otherwise Excludable Participants. For purposes of the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway, Otherwise Excludable Participants will not be considered.

1.101

Minimum Allocation Gateway. The term “Minimum Allocation Gateway” means, for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, a minimum allocation that must be provided to each Non-Highly Compensated Employee who receives an allocation of any Non-Elective Contribution (including any ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution) or any Qualified Non-Elective Contribution under this Plan (or any other defined contribution plan that is aggregated with this Plan) that performs the general test for non-discrimination based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates as set forth in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-8. Notwithstanding the above, in determining the Benefiting Participants for purposes of the Minimum Allocation Gateway, the permissive disaggregation rules under Regulation §1.410(b)-6(b)(3)(ii) and §1.410(b)-7(c)(3) will be applied. The Minimum Allocation Gateway is subject to the following rules:

(a)

Minimum Allocation Gateway Satisfied So Long As this Plan Is Not Aggregated with any Defined Benefit Plan. The Minimum Allocation Gateway can be utilized so long as neither this Plan nor any other defined contribution plan (that is aggregated with this Plan) is aggregated with any defined benefit plan in applying the general test for non-discrimination based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates for the defined contribution plan(s). If this Plan or any other defined contribution plan (that is aggregated with this Plan) is aggregated with any defined benefit plan for purposes of applying the general test for non-discrimination based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates for the defined contribution plan(s), then the Minimum Allocation Gateway pursuant to this definition will not satisfy the requirements of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-9.

(b)

Minimum Allocation Gateway Amount. The amount of the Minimum Allocation Gateway is equal to the lesser of (1) five percent (5%) of the Participant’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation; or (2) one-third of the Allocation Rate of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest Allocation Rate.

(c)

Satisfaction of Minimum Allocation Gateway. The Minimum Allocation Gateway may be satisfied with any Non-Elective Contributions (including any ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions) or any Qualified Non-Elective Contributions.

(d)

No Permitted Disparity. For purposes of this definition, allocations and Allocation Rates must not take into account the imputation of permitted disparity under §1.401(a)(4)-7.

(e)

Compensation Limited to Compensation after Entry Date. For purposes of determining if the Minimum Allocation Gateway of paragraph (b) has been satisfied, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be limited to the Participant’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation on and after a Participant’s Entry Date of the Plan’s component subject to the Minimum Allocation Gateway.

(f)

Treatment of Otherwise Excludable Participants. For purposes of the Minimum Allocation Gateway, Otherwise Excludable Participants will not be considered.

(a)

Definition of Period of Severance and 1-Year Period of Severance. The term “Period of Severance” means a continuous period of time during which the Employee is not employed by the Employer. A Period of Severance begins on the earlier of (1) the date on which an Employee retires, dies, quits or is discharged from employment by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, or (2) the first anniversary of the first date on which an Employee remains absent from service with the Employer or an Affiliated Employer (with or without pay) for any reason other than the Employee retiring, dying, quitting or being discharged from employment by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, such as for vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity (including disability), layoff, jury duty, military duty or leave of absence. However, in the case of an Employee who is absent from work for Maternity or Paternity Leave, the 12-consecutive month period beginning on the first anniversary of the first date of such absence under clause (2) of the previous sentence will not constitute a Period of Severance. A Period of Severance ends as of an Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. The term “1-Year Period of Severance” means a 12-consecutive month Period of Severance during which an Employee fails to perform an Hour of Service.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 23 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Hours of Service During a Period of Severance. If an Employee performs an Hour of Service during a period which would otherwise be considered a Period of Severance under paragraph (a), then the Plan must count such period as a Period of Service and the Employee will receive credit for such Period of Service.

(c)

Definition of 1-Year Period of Service. The term “1-Year Period of Service” means a 12-consecutive month Period of Service. An Employee will receive credit for Periods of Service of less than 12-consecutive months by aggregating (subject to the limitations below) all non-successive Periods of Service and all Periods of Service which are fractional years or which do not constitute a whole 1-Year Period of Service, regardless of whether consecutive. Fractional periods of a year are expressed in terms of days, on the basis that a day of service is credited if an Employee is credited with an Hour of Service during such day, and on the basis that 12 months of service (30 days being deemed to be a month of service in the case of the aggregation of fractional months of service) or 365 days of service equals a 1-Year Period of Service. An Employee will also be credited for all purposes, as applicable, with a fractional Period of Service for any Period of Severance that is less than a 1-Year Period of Severance.

(d)

Prior Service Credit. If the Employer maintains (or has ever maintained) any plan of a predecessor employer, then service during the existence of such predecessor plan with such predecessor employer will be credited as Periods of Service with the Employer. In addition, if elected in Section 2.2 of the Adoption Agreement, then predecessor service with the entity or entities named in the Adoption Agreement will be credited as Periods of Service with the Employer for the purposes elected in the Adoption Agreement. For purposes of the prior sentence, the following rules will apply: If the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) a plan of a predecessor employer and if predecessor service of that predecessor employer is credited in a standardized Adoption Agreement, then such service will be limited to five 1-Year Periods of Service pursuant to Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-5(a)(3). If the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) a plan of a predecessor employer, if predecessor service of that predecessor employer is credited in a non-standardized Adoption Agreement and if such predecessor service exceeds five 1-Year Periods of Service, the crediting of such service must comply with the requirements of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-11(d).

(e)

Reemployment of an Employee Before a Break In Service and Before Eligibility Requirements Are Satisfied. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 are based on the Elapsed Time Method, if an Employee Terminates Employment with the Employer prior to satisfying the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 and the Employee is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring a Break in Service, then the Employee’s pre-termination Period of Service will be counted in determining the satisfaction of such eligibility requirements and for all other purposes, as applicable. Furthermore, the Employee will also be credited for all purposes, as applicable, with a fractional Period of Service for any Period of Severance that is less than a 1-Year Period of Severance. If the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 when such fractional Period of Service of the previous sentence is added to such Employee’s pre-termination Period of Service, then the Employee will become a Participant in the Plan as of the later of (1) the date that the Employee would enter the Plan had the Employee not Terminated Employment with the Employer, or (2) the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(f)

Reemployment of an Employee Before a Break In Service and After Eligibility Requirements Are Satisfied. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 are based on the Elapsed Time Method, if an Employee Terminates Employment prior to the Employee’s Entry Date in Section 2.2, the Employee had satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Termination of Employment, and the Employee is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring a Break in Service, then (1) the Employee will become a Participant as of the later of (A) the date the Employee would enter the Plan had the Employee not Terminated Employment with the Employer, or (B) the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date, and (2) the Employee’s pre-termination Period of Service will be counted for all purposes. The Employee will also be credited for all purposes, as applicable, with a fractional Period of Service for any Period of Severance less than a 1-Year Period of Severance.

(g)

Reemployment of a Participant Before a Break In Service. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 are based on the Elapsed Time Method, if an Employee Terminates Employment after becoming a Participant and is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring a Break in Service, then (1) the reemployed Employee will reenter the Plan as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date, and (2) the Employee’s pre-termination Period of Service will be counted for all purposes, as applicable. Furthermore, the Employee will also be credited for all purposes, as applicable, with a fractional Period of Service for any Period of Severance that is less than a 1-Year Period of Severance.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 24 of 114		July 2008

(h)

Reemployment of an Employee After a Break In Service and Before Entry Date. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 are based on the Elapsed Time Method, if an Employee Terminates Employment with the Employer either prior to or after satisfying the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 (but before the Employee’s Entry Date in Section 2.2) and the Employee is subsequently reemployed by the Employer after incurring a Break in Service, then the Employee’s Period of Service that was completed prior to the Break in Service will be recognized, subject to the following provisions:

(1)

Determination of Period of Service for Eligibility Purposes . The following provisions apply to determining any Period of Service for eligibility purposes:

(A)

One Year Holdout Rule. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the One Year Holdout Rule in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan until the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule. If the Employee has not satisfied the eligibility requirements as set forth in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and then satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, then the Employee will become a Participant in the Plan as of the Entry Date in Section 2.2 after the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 (including, if applicable, an Entry Date that may occur during the One Year Holdout Rule period after the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date). If the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and then satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, the reemployed Employee will enter the Plan retroactively as of his or her Reemployment Commencement Date. If the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement (in addition to the One Year Holdout Rule), then the recognition of any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will be subject to both the One Year Holdout Rule and the Rule of Parity.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, then any Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan if that Period of Service is disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for purposes of Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. If the Employee has not satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and such former Employee’s Period of Service is not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the Employee will become a Participant in the Plan as of the Entry Date in Section 2.2 after the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1. If the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and such former Employee’s Period of Service is not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will enter the Plan as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(2)

Determination of Period of Service for Vesting Purposes. The following provisions apply to determining any Period of Service for Vesting purposes:

(A)

One Year Holdout Rule. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the One Year Holdout Rule in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s Vesting Interest in the Participant’s Account balance until the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule. If the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, the Employee’s Period of Service for Vesting purposes will include the Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service, retroactively to the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. Furthermore, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement (in addition to the One Year Holdout Rule), then the recognition of any Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will be subject to both the One Year Holdout Rule and the Rule of Parity.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 25 of 114		July 2008

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for purposes of determining an Employee’s Vesting Interest in the Participant’s Account balance if that Period of Service is disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for purposes of determining an Employee’s Vesting Interest in the Participant’s Account balance as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(3)

Determination of Period of Service for Benefit Accrual/Allocation Purposes. The following provisions apply to determining any Period of Service for benefit accrual or allocation purposes:

If the Sponsoring Employer elects the One Year Holdout Rule in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for benefit accrual or allocation purposes until the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule. If the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, then the Employee’s Period of Service for benefit accrual or allocation purposes will include the Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service, retroactively to the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. Furthermore, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement (in addition to the One Year Holdout Rule), then the recognition of any Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will be subject to both the One Year Holdout Rule and the Rule of Parity.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for benefit accrual or allocation purposes if that Period of Service is disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for benefit accrual or allocation purposes as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(i)

Reemployment of a Participant After a Break In Service. With respect to any provision of the Plan in which service is determined by the Elapsed Time Method, if an Employee (1) was a Participant in the Plan, (2) Terminates Employment with the Employer, and (3) is subsequently reemployed by the Employer after incurring a Break in Service, then the Employee’s Period of Service that was completed prior to the Break in Service will be recognized, subject to the following provisions:

If the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, then the reemployed Employee will enter the Plan retroactively as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. Furthermore, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement (in addition to the One Year Holdout Rule), then the recognition of any Period of Service that was completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will be subject to both the One Year Holdout Rule and the Rule of Parity.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan if that Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for purposes of Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will reenter the Plan as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Period of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for benefit accrual or allocation purposes if that Period of Service is disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Period of Service is disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for benefit accrual or allocation purposes as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(j)

Ignoring Service for Eligibility If Service Requirement Is More Than 1-Year Period Of Service. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if this Plan (or a component of the Plan) provides in the Adoption Agreement that (1) an Employee must complete more than either a 1-Year Period of Service or a 12-month Period of Service for eligibility purposes, and (2) such Employee will have a 100% Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account (or the sub-Account that relates to such component) upon becoming a Participant in the Plan, then with respect to an Employee who incurs a Break in Service before satisfying such eligibility requirement, the Employee’s Period of Service that was completed prior to the Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for eligibility purposes.

Any other payment that is not described in clauses (a) and (b) above is not considered Post-Severance Compensation if paid after Termination of Employment, even if it is paid within 2 ¹ / ₂ months following Termination of Employment; for example, Post-Severance Compensation does not include amounts paid after Termination of Employment that are severance pay, unfunded nonqualified deferred compensation, or parachute payments within the meaning of Code §280G(b)(2).

Top Heavy Ratio. The term “Top Heavy Ratio” means for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, in determining if this Plan is Top Heavy, a ratio that is calculated in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Employer Only Maintains DC Plans. If the Employer maintains one or more defined contribution plans (including any Simplified Employee Pension Plan) and the Employer has not maintained any defined benefit plan which during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date(s) has or has had accrued benefits, then the Top Heavy Ratio for this Plan alone, for the Required Aggregation Group, or for the Permissive Aggregation Group as appropriate is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Participant’s Account balances of all Key Employees as of the Determination Date(s) (including any part of any Participant’s Account balance distributed during the 1-year period ending on the Determination Date(s); however, including any part of any Participant’s Account balance distributed during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date in the case of a distribution made for a reason other than Termination of Employment, death, or Disability), and the denominator of which is the sum of all Participant’s Account balances (including any part of any Participant’s Account balance distributed in the 1-year period ending on the Determination Date(s); however, including any part of any Participant’s Account balance distributed during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date in the case of a distribution made for a reason other than Termination of Employment, death, or Disability), both computed in accordance with Code §416 and the Regulations thereunder. Both the numerator and denominator of the Top Heavy Ratio are increased to reflect any contribution that is not actually made as of the Determination Date, but which is required to be taken into account on that Determination Date under Code §416 and the Regulations thereunder.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 35 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Employer Maintains Both DC and DB Plans. If the Employer maintains one or more defined contribution plans (including any Simplified Employee Pension Plan) and the Employer maintains or has maintained one or more defined benefit plans which during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date(s) has or has had any accrued benefits, then the Top Heavy Ratio for any Required Aggregation Group or for any Permissive Aggregation Group as appropriate is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Participant’s Account balances under the aggregated defined contribution plan or plans for all Key Employees, determined in accordance with paragraph (a) above, and the present value of accrued benefits under the aggregated defined benefit plan or plans for all Key Employees as of the Determination Date(s), and the denominator of which is the sum of the Participant’s Account balances under the aggregated defined contribution plan or plans for all Participants, determined in accordance with paragraph (a) above, and the present value of accrued benefits under the defined benefit plan or plans for all Participants as of the Determination Date(s), all determined in accordance with Code §416 and the Regulations thereunder. The accrued benefits under a defined benefit plan in both the numerator and denominator of the Top Heavy Ratio are increased for any distribution of an accrued benefit made in the 1-year period ending on the Determination Date (or the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date in the case of a distribution made for a reason other than Termination of Employment, death, or Disability).

(c)

Value of Participant’s Account Balances and the Present Value of Accrued Benefits. For purposes of paragraphs (a) and (b), the value of the Participant’s Account balances and the present value of accrued benefits will be determined as of the most recent Valuation Date that falls within or ends with the 12-month period ending on the Determination Date, except as provided in Code §416 and the Regulations for the first and second Plan Years of a defined benefit plan. The Participant’s Account balances and accrued benefits will be disregarded for a Participant (1) who is not a Key Employee during the 12-month period ending on the Determination Date but was a Key Employee in a prior year, or (2) who has not been credited with at least one Hour of Service with any Employer maintaining the Plan at any time during the 1-year period ending on the Determination Date. The calculation of the Top Heavy Ratio and the extent to which distributions, Rollover Contributions, and Transfer Contributions are taken into account will be made in accordance with Code §416 and the Regulations thereunder. Deductible employee contributions will not be taken into account in computing the Top Heavy Ratio. When aggregating plans, the value of the Participant’s Account balances and accrued benefits will be calculated with reference to the Determination Dates that fall within the same calendar year. The accrued benefit of a Participant other than a Key Employee will be determined under (1) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer, or (2) if there is no such method, then as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule of Code §411(b)(1)(C).

(d)

Computing Present Values. In establishing the present value of accrued benefits to compute the Top Heavy Ratio, benefits not in pay status are handled on the basis that retirement occurs on the automatic vesting date or, if later, the date of reference. Benefits are discounted only for interest and mortality. Unless otherwise elected in the Adoption Agreement, the following factors apply: (1) with respect to the interest assumption: (i) pre-retirement: 6% interest, and (ii) post-retirement: 5% interest; and (2) with respect to the mortality assumption: (i) pre-retirement: no mortality assumption, and (ii) post-retirement: the mortality assumption will be the 1994 Group Annuity Reserving Mortality Table projected to 2002 based on a fixed blend of 50% of the unloaded Male mortality rates and 50% of the unloaded Female mortality rates (the 1994 GAR Mortality Table) as set forth in Revenue Ruling 2001—62.

1.185

Transfer Contribution. The term “Transfer Contribution” means a non-taxable transfer of a Participant’s benefit directly or indirectly from another qualified plan to this Plan. Transfer Contributions include assets transferred to this Plan from another plan as a result of a merger or similar transaction involving this Plan and the other plan. Any direct or indirect transfer as defined in Code §401(a)(11) of assets from a defined benefit plan, a money purchase plan, a target benefit plan, a stock bonus plan, or a profit sharing plan that provided for a life annuity form of payment to the Participant will be considered a Transfer Contribution. Elective Deferrals (including QNECs, QMACs, and ADP Safe Harbor Contributions) which are transferred to this Plan in a direct or indirect trustee-to-trustee transfer from another qualified plan and which remain subject to the limitations in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d) will be considered a Transfer Contribution. The assets that are transferred from another qualified plan in a plan-to-plan elective transfer pursuant to Section 11.4 will also be considered a Transfer Contribution.

1.186

Transfer Contribution Account. The term “Transfer Contribution Account” means the account to which a Participant’s Transfer Contributions, if any, are allocated.

For purposes of calculating the Top Heavy Ratio, the term “Valuation Date” means the date when the Participant’s Account balances or accrued benefits are valued.

1.191

Vested Aggregate Account. The term “Vested Aggregate Account” means a Participant’s Vested Interest in the aggregate value of his or her Participant’s Account and any accounts attributable to the Participant’s own Plan contributions (including the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account and Transfer Contribution Account).

The term “Vesting Computation Period” means a period of twelve (12) consecutive months, which is used for purposes of determining a Participant’s Vested Interest in the Plan (or a component of the Plan). As elected in the Adoption Agreement, either (a) each Vesting Computation Period will consist of each Plan Year; or (b) an Employee’s initial Vesting Computation Period will begin on the Employee’s Employment Commencement Date, and each subsequent Vesting Computation Period will begin on each anniversary of the Employee’s Employment Commencement Date.

1.194

(a)

Year of Service for Eligibility. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements under Section 2.1 are based on Years of Service, then a Year of Service is an Eligibility Computation Period during which an Employee is credited with at least the number of Hours of Service (but not more than 1,000 Hours of Service) as elected in the Adoption Agreement. If the Employee is credited with 1,000 Hours of Service (or such lesser number of Hours of Service as elected in the Adoption Agreement) in both the initial Eligibility Computation Period and the second Eligibility Computation Period, then the Employee will be credited with two Years of Service for eligibility purposes. If any Eligibility Computation Period is less than 12 months, then the Hours of Service requirement set forth herein will be proportionately reduced (if the Hours of Service requirement is greater than one Hour of Service) for purposes of determining whether an Employee is credited with a Year of Service during such short Eligibility Computation Period. As elected in the Adoption Agreement, in determining the eligibility requirements under Section 2.1 and the applicable Entry Date under Section 2.2, an Employee will be deemed to have completed a Year of Service on either (1) the last day of the applicable Eligibility Computation Period during which the Employee is credited with the required Hours of Service; or (2) the same date that the Employee is credited with the applicable Hours of Service requirement, even if such date occurs before the last day of the Eligibility Computation Period.

(b)

Year of Service for Vesting. For any Plan Year in which a Participant’s Vested Interest under Section 4.6 is based on Years of Service, then a Year of Service is a Vesting Computation Period during which an Employee is credited with at least the number of Hours of Service (but not more than 1,000 Hours of Service) as elected in the Adoption Agreement. If any Vesting Computation Period is less than 12 months, then the Hours of Service requirement set forth herein will be proportionately reduced (if the Hours of Service requirement is greater than one Hour of Service) for purposes of determining whether an Employee is credited with a Year of Service during such short Vesting Computation Period. Alternatively, with respect to a short Vesting Computation Period, an Employee will be credited with a Year of Service pursuant to Department of Labor Regulation §2530.203-2(c).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 37 of 114		July 2008

(c)

Year of Service for Benefit Accrual/Allocation Purposes. For any Plan Year in which a Participant’s benefit accrual and/or allocations are based on Years of Service, a Year of Service is a 12-consecutive month benefit accrual computation period during which an Employee is credited with at least the number of Hours of Service (but not more than 1,000 Hours of Service) as elected in the Adoption Agreement. The benefit accrual computation period will be the Plan Year. If any benefit accrual computation period is less than 12 months, then the Hours of Service requirement set forth herein will be proportionately reduced (if the Hours of Service requirement is greater than one (1) Hour of Service) for purposes of determining whether an Employee is credited with a Year of Service during such short benefit accrual computation period.

(d)

Prior Service Credit. If the Employer maintains (or has ever maintained) any plan of a predecessor employer, service during the existence of such predecessor plan with such predecessor employer will be credited as Years of Service with the Employer. In addition, if elected in Section 2.2 of the Adoption Agreement, predecessor service with the entity or entities named in the Adoption Agreement will be credited as Years of Service with the Employer for the purposes elected in the Adoption Agreement. For purposes of the prior sentence, the following rules will apply: (1) if the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) any plan of a predecessor employer and if predecessor service of that predecessor employer is credited in a standardized Adoption Agreement, then such service will be limited to five Years of Service pursuant to Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-5(a)(3); and (2) if the Employer does not maintain (and has never maintained) any plan of a predecessor employer, if predecessor service of that predecessor employer is credited in a non-standardized Adoption Agreement and if such predecessor service exceeds five Years of Service, the crediting of such service must comply with the requirements of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-11(d).

(e)

Reemployment of an Employee Before a Break In Service and Before Eligibility Requirements Are Satisfied. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements under Section 2.1 are based on Years of Service, if an Employee Terminates Employment with the Employer prior to satisfying the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 and the Employee is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring a Break in Service, then (1) the Employee’s pre-termination Year(s) of Service (and Hours of Service during any computation period) will be counted in determining the satisfaction of such eligibility requirements, and for all other purposes, as applicable, and (2) the Eligibility Computation Period, Vesting Computation Period, and/or benefit accrual computation period, as applicable, will remain unchanged.

(f)

Reemployment of an Employee Before a Break In Service and After Eligibility Requirements Are Satisfied. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements under Section 2.1 are based on Years of Service, if an Employee Terminates Employment with the Employer prior to the Employee’s Entry Date in Section 2.2, the Employee had satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Termination of Employment, and the Employee is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring a Break in Service, then (1) the Employee will become a Participant as of the later of (A) the date that the Employee would enter the Plan had he or she not Terminated Employment with the Employer, or (B) the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date, (2) the Employee’s pre-termination Year(s) of Service (and Hours of Service during any computation period) will be counted for all purposes, and (3) the Vesting Computation Period and/or benefit accrual computation period, as applicable, will remain unchanged.

If the Sponsoring Employer elects the One Year Holdout Rule in the Adoption Agreement, any Year(s) of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan until the Employee satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule. If the Employee has not satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and then satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, then the Employee will become a Participant in the Plan as of the Entry Date in Section 2.2 after the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 (including, if applicable, an Entry Date that may occur during the One Year Holdout Rule period after the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date). If the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and then satisfies the One Year Holdout Rule, then the reemployed Employee will enter the Plan as of the first day of the Eligibility Computation Period in which the Employee completes one Year of Service. Furthermore, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement (in addition to the One Year Holdout Rule), then the recognition of any Year(s) of Service that were completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will be subject to both the One Year Holdout Rule and the Rule of Parity.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Year(s) of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan if those Year(s) of Service are disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then (A) the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for purposes of Section 2.1 and (B) the Employee’s Eligibility Computation Period will commence on the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and subsequent Eligibility Computation Periods will be based upon the provisions of the definition of Eligibility Computation Period (with the Reemployment Commencement Date substituted for the Employment Commencement Date, if applicable). If the Employee has not satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the Eligibility Computation Periods will remain unchanged. If the Employee has satisfied the eligibility requirements in Section 2.1 as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, the reemployed Employee will enter the Plan as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, then any Year(s) of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for benefit accrual or allocation purposes if those Year(s) of Service are disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity.

(i)

Reemployment of a Participant After a Break In Service. For any Plan Year in which the eligibility requirements under Section 2.1 are based on Years of Service, if an Employee (1) was a Participant in the Plan, (2) Terminates Employment with the Employer, and (3) is subsequently reemployed by the Employer after incurring a Break in Service, then the Employee’s Year(s) of Service that were completed prior to the Break in Service will be recognized, subject to the following provisions:

(1)

Determination of Years of Service for Eligibility Purposes. The following provisions apply to determining Year(s) of Service for eligibility purposes:

(A)

(B)

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, any Year(s) of Service completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted in determining an Employee’s eligibility to participate in the Plan if those Year(s) of Service are disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then (A) the reemployed Employee will be treated as a new Employee for purposes of Section 2.1 and (B) the Employee’s Eligibility Computation Period will commence on the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and subsequent Eligibility Computation Periods will be based upon the provisions of the definition of Eligibility Computation Period (with the Reemployment Commencement Date substituted for the Employment Commencement Date, if applicable). If such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the reemployed Employee will reenter the Plan as of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date.

Rule of Parity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the Rule of Parity in the Adoption Agreement, then any Year(s) of Service that were completed prior to an Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for purposes of determining an Employee’s Vesting Interest in the Participant’s Account balance if those Year(s) of Service are disregarded pursuant to the Rule of Parity. If such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are disregarded under the Rule of Parity and the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that the Vesting Computation Period is based on an Employee’s 12-month employment year, then the Employee’s Vesting Computation Period will commence on the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date (and subsequent Vesting Computation Periods will commence on anniversaries of the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date). If such former Employee’s Year(s) of Service are not disregarded under the Rule of Parity, then the Vesting Computation Periods will remain unchanged.

(3)

Determination of Years of Service for Benefit Accrual/Allocation Purposes. The following provisions apply to determining Year(s) of Service for benefit accrual or allocation purposes:

(j)

Ignoring Service For Eligibility If Service Requirement Is More Than 1 Year Of Service. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if this Plan (or a component of the Plan) provides in the Adoption Agreement that an Employee must complete more than one (1) Year of Service for eligibility purposes, and such Employee will have a 100% Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account (or the sub-Account that relates to such component) upon becoming a Participant in the Plan, then with respect to an Employee who incurs a Break in Service before satisfying such eligibility requirement (1) the Employee’s Year(s) of Service (and Hours of Service) that were completed prior to the Employee’s Break(s) in Service will not be counted for eligibility purposes, and (2) the Employee’s Eligibility Computation Period will commence on the Employee’s Reemployment Commencement Date and subsequent Eligibility Computation Periods will be based upon the provisions of the definition of Eligibility Computation Period (with the Reemployment Commencement Date substituted for the Employment Commencement Date, if applicable).

Article 2

Plan Participation

2.1

Eligibility Requirements . If this is an amended Plan, any Eligible Employee who is a Participant on the day before the effective date in the Adoption Agreement will continue to participate in the Plan. Otherwise, an Eligible Employee will be eligible to become a Participant in the Plan upon satisfying the eligibility requirements as elected in the Adoption Agreement, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Age and Service Requirements . An Eligible Employee must satisfy any age and/or service requirements indicated in the Adoption Agreement for each applicable type of contribution. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that the service requirement for participation with respect to one or more components of the Plan is the lesser of 1 Year of Service or a stated number of consecutive months, weeks, or days of employment, then an Employee will only be deemed to have completed a month, week, or day of employment for any calendar month, week, or day during which the Employee (1) is continuously employed with the Employer or an Affiliated Employer without interruption for that entire calendar month, week, or day except for those interruptions that are described in the definition of Hour of Service, and (2) if elected in the Adoption Agreement, is credited with the number of Hours of Service for that month, week, or day as indicated in the Adoption Agreement. For purposes of the prior sentence, the determination of whether an Eligible Employee has satisfied the stated number of consecutive months, weeks, or days of employment will be made on the basis of an Eligibility Computation Period; if an Eligible Employee does not satisfy the stated number of consecutive months, weeks, or days of employment during an Eligibility Computation Period, then such Eligible Employee has not satisfied the stated number of consecutive months, weeks, or days of employment, until satisfied during a subsequent Eligibility Computation Period.

(b)

Eligible Employees . All Eligible Employees will be eligible to participate in the Plan (or a component of the Plan); however, the following Employees are not Eligible Employees in the Plan (or a component of the Plan), if elected in the Adoption Agreement:

(1)

Union Employees. Employees whose employment is governed by a collective bargaining agreement between Employee representatives and the Employer in which retirement benefits were the subject of good faith bargaining unless such collective bargaining agreement expressly provides for the inclusion of such Employees as Participants in the Plan.

(2)

Non-Resident Aliens. Employees who are non-resident aliens who do not receive earned income (within the meaning of Code §911(d)(2)) from the Employer which constitutes income from sources within the United States (within the meaning of Code §861(a)(3)).

(3)

“Merger and Acquisition” Employees. Persons who became Employees as the result of a “Code §410(b)(6)(C) transaction”. These Employees will be excluded during the period beginning on the date of the transaction and ending on the last day of the first Plan Year beginning after the date of the transaction. A “Code §410(b)(6)(C)” transaction” is an asset or stock acquisition, merger, or similar transaction involving a change in the employer of the employees of a trade or business.

(4)

Highly Compensated Employees. Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees (or any subgroup of Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees).

(5)

Leased Employees. For non-standardized plans only, any person who is considered a Leased Employee but who (1) is not covered by a plan described in Code §414(n)(5), or (2) is covered by a plan described in Code §414(n)(5) but Leased Employees constitute more than 20% of the Employer’s non-highly compensated workforce.

(6)

Employees of Non-Adopting Affiliated Employers. For non-standardized plans only, Employees who are employed by an Affiliated Employer which is not an Adopting Employer.

(7)

Key Employees. For non-standardized plans only, Employees who are Key Employees.

(8)

Employees Who Are Paid By Salary. For non-standardized plans only, Employees whose Compensation is primarily in the form of a salary.

(9)

Employees Who Are Paid By the Hour. For non-standardized plans only, Employees whose Compensation is primarily paid on an hourly basis.

(10)

Employees Who Are Paid In Commissions. For non-standardized plans only, Employees whose Compensation is primarily in the form of commissions.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 42 of 114		July 2008

(11)

Other. For non-standardized plans only, any other Employees who are not Eligible Employees as elected and specified in the Adoption Agreement.

(c)

Participation By Employees Whose Status Changes. If an Employee who is not an Eligible Employee with respect to a particular type of contribution (or a component of the Plan) becomes an Eligible Employee for such contribution (or component), then the Employee will participate in the Plan immediately with respect to that type of contribution (or component), so long as (1) the Employee has satisfied the minimum age and service requirements for that type of contribution (or component) and (2) the Employee would have previously become a Participant with respect to that type of contribution (or component) had the Employee always been an Eligible Employee for that type of contribution (or component). The participation of a Participant who is no longer an Eligible Employee with respect to a particular type of contribution (or component) will be suspended and such Participant will be entitled to an allocation of that type of contribution (and any applicable Forfeitures) for the Allocation Period only to the extent of any applicable Hours of Service or Periods of Service completed while an Eligible Employee for that type of contribution (or component). In addition to satisfying any other conditions, the Sponsoring Employer may elect in the Adoption Agreement that the Employee must be an Eligible Employee on the last day of the Allocation Period in which such participation is suspended. Upon again becoming an Eligible Employee with respect to that type of contribution (or component), a suspended Participant will immediately resume eligibility with respect to that type of contribution. Years of Service or Periods of Service while an Employee is not an Eligible Employee will be recognized for purposes of determining the Vested Interest of such Employee with respect to a particular type of contribution (or component) in accordance with Section 4.6.

2.2

Entry Date. An Eligible Employee who has satisfied the eligibility requirements as elected in the Adoption Agreement will enter the Plan as a Participant on the “Entry Date” that is elected in the Adoption Agreement. Furthermore, if the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to waive the age and/or service requirements for the Plan (or a component of the Plan) as of a specified date, then an Eligible Employee will enter the Plan (or that component of the Plan) as of such specified date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Eligible Employee who is also a Prevailing Wage Employee will enter the Plan as a Participant with respect to Compensation received under a Prevailing Wage Law on the date the Employee first receives such Compensation; however, if the Sponsor Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement a later Entry Date with respect to Prevailing Wage Contributions, then such later Entry Date will apply.

2.3

Waiver of Participation. A waiver of participation is not permitted except to the extent a valid waiver was made under the terms of the prior Plan. If this is an amendment and restatement of this Plan, then all prior irrevocable waivers will remain in effect after the adoption date of this amendment and restatement. If a prior Plan document permitted revocable waivers of participation, then any Eligible Employee who had previously waived participation on a revocable basis may revoke such waiver and participate in the Plan; however, such Eligible Employee may not waive participation again on or after the adoption date of this amendment and restatement

2.4

Reemployment. If an Employee Terminates Employment and is subsequently reemployed by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer, such Employee’s Years of Service and/or Periods of Service for purposes of eligibility (as well as the time such Employee enters or reenters the Plan as a Participant) will be determined in accordance with the rules described in the definition of Years of Service and/or Periods of Service, as applicable.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 43 of 114		July 2008

Article 3

Contributions and Allocations

3.1

General Contribution and Allocation Provisions. The Employer intends to make contributions to the Plan, unless the Plan is a frozen Plan, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Types and Amount of Contributions. The types (and, if applicable, the amount) of contributions that may be made to the Plan are those that are elected in the Adoption Agreement. The type and the amount of the contribution will be determined by the Employer, and such determination by the Employer will be binding on the Trustee, Administrator and all Participants and may not be reviewed in any manner.

(b)

No Guarantee. The Employer does not guarantee either the making of Employer contributions or the payment of benefits under the Plan. The Employer reserves the right to reduce, suspend or discontinue contributions for any reason at any time; however, if the Plan is deemed to be terminated as a result of such reduction, suspension or discontinuance, then the provisions of Article 9 will become effective.

(c)

Taxable Wage Base. If a contribution and/or allocation utilize the Taxable Wage Base, then the Taxable Wage Base that is used for a Plan Year will be determined as of the beginning of the Plan Year.

(d)

Effect of Waiver of Funding. If the Plan is a money purchase Plan and the Employer amends the Plan because of a waiver of the minimum funding requirement under Code §412(d), then such Plan will be considered to be an individually designed plan and will no longer be considered a prototype plan.

(e)

Limitations on Contributions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article, (1) no Employer contribution will be made for any Participant who is not a Benefiting Participant for an Allocation Period unless otherwise required by the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation provisions in Section 3.14; and (2) if the Plan provides contributions or benefits for Employees some or all of whom are owner-employees as defined in Code §401(c)(3), such contributions or benefits can only be provided with respect to the Earned Income of such owner-employees derived from the trade or business with respect to which the Plan is established.

(f)

Frequency of Contributions and Allocations. Any Employer contribution that is made under the terms of the Plan may, at the election of the Administrator, be contributed (1) each payroll period; (2) each month; (3) each Plan quarter; (4) on an annual basis; or (5) on any Allocation Period as determined by the Employer, provided that such Allocation Period does not discriminate in favor of Highly Compensated Employees. The Employer may elect a different Allocation Period for each type of Employer contribution. Employer contributions will be allocated based on the applicable Allocation Period.

(g)

Form of Contribution. If the Plan is not subject to Code §412, the contribution is not used to reduce an obligation or liability of an Employer to the Plan, and the contribution is unencumbered and discretionary, then the contribution (if any) may consist of (1) cash; (2) cash equivalencies (3) qualifying employer real property and/or qualifying employer securities as defined in ERISA §407(d)(4) and ERISA §407(d)(5), provided the acquisition of such qualifying employer real property and/or qualifying employer securities satisfies the requirements of ERISA §408(e); or (4) any other property that is not prohibited under Code §4975 and that is acceptable to the Trustee under the terms of the Trust agreement. If the Plan is subject to Code §412, the contribution is used to reduce an obligation or liability of an Employer, or the contribution is encumbered and not discretionary, then the contribution will consist of (1) cash; or (2) cash equivalencies; such Employer’s contribution will not consist of any non-cash or non-cash equivalency assets to the Trust.

(h)

Refund of Contributions. Contributions that are made to the Plan by the Employer can only be returned to the Employer in accordance with the following provisions:

(1)

Failure of Plan to Initially Qualify. If the Plan fails to initially satisfy the requirements of Code §401(a) and the Employer declines to amend the Plan to satisfy such requirements, then contributions that were made prior to the date such qualification is denied must be returned to the Employer within one year of the date of such denial, but only if the application for the qualification is made by the time prescribed by law for filing the Employer’s tax return for the taxable year in which the Plan is adopted, or by such later date as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe.

(2)

Contributions Made Under a Mistake of Fact. If a contribution is attributable in whole or in part to a good faith mistake of fact, including a good faith mistake in determining the deductibility of the contribution under Code §404, an amount may be returned to the Employer equal to the excess of the amount that had been contributed over the amount that would have been contributed if the mistake of fact had not occurred (which excess will hereafter be known as a “Mistaken Contribution”). Earnings attributable to a Mistaken Contribution will not be returned, but losses attributable to the Mistaken Contribution will reduce the amount so returned. The Mistaken Contribution will be returned within one year of the date the Mistaken Contribution was made or the deduction disallowed, as the case may be.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 44 of 114		July 2008

(3)

Nondeductible Contributions. Except to the extent that an Employer may intentionally make a nondeductible contribution, for example, to correct an administrative error or restore a Forfeiture, Employer contributions are conditioned on deductibility and will otherwise be returned to the Employer.

(4)

Prevailing Wage Contributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Prevailing Wage Contributions that would otherwise be returned to the Employer for the reasons described in paragraphs (1) or (2) above will instead be distributed to the affected Participants.

3.2

Elective Deferrals. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then the Employer will contribute each Participant’s Elective Deferrals to the Plan, determined in accordance with and subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Amount of Elective Deferrals. Each Participant may enter into and submit to the Administrator at any time a Salary Deferral Agreement authorizing the Employer to withhold all or a portion of the Participant’s Compensation, specifying the amount (either in whole percentage increments of Compensation or in whole dollar amounts as designated by the Participant; but the Administrator will have the right to direct that such increments of Compensation be rounded to the next highest or lowest dollar or percentage) and type (either Roth Elective Deferrals (if permitted by the Plan), Pre-Tax Elective Deferrals, or a specific combination of Roth Elective Deferrals (if permitted by the Plan) and Pre-Tax Elective Deferrals). The amount withheld will be deemed an Elective Deferral that the Employer will contribute to the Plan on behalf of the Participant. Such Salary Deferral Agreement will be effective as soon as administratively feasible after receipt of the Salary Deferral Agreement, unless a later pay period is specified by the Participant. A Participant’s Salary Deferral Agreement will remain in effect until superseded by another Salary Deferral Agreement (subject to the Automatic Enrollment provisions of paragraph (g) below). The Administrator, pursuant to an administrative policy regarding Elective Deferrals that is promulgated under Section 8.6, will designate the effective date of such elections that are submitted to the Administrator, and the frequency of such elections (and the frequency of modifications to such elections) but not less frequently than once per Plan Year. In addition, other Elective Deferral provisions may be set forth in such administrative policy, including, but not limited to, provisions that (1) set the maximum Elective Deferral percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees (if such percentage is less than the maximum percentage set forth above); (2) describe a program of automatic increases to a Participants’ Elective Deferral percentage as elected by the Administrator and/or the Participant; and (3) permit a Participant to identify separate components of the Participant’s Compensation (such as base salary, bonuses, etc.) and to specify that a different Elective Deferral percentage (or dollar amount) apply to each such component.

(b)

Cash or Deferred Option. For any Plan Year, the Employer may declare a Cash or Deferred Contribution. In such event, the Employer will provide each Participant who is entitled to this Cash or Deferred Contribution the right to elect to receive as cash some or all of such Participant’s Cash or Deferred Contribution. Any amount that a Participant elects not to receive as cash will be deemed an Elective Deferral of the Participant, will be contributed to the Plan within 2 ¹ / ₂ months after the end of the Plan Year, and will be allocated to the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account.

(c)

Roth Elective Deferrals. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, a Participant may elect to classify all or a portion of an Elective Deferral as a Roth Elective Deferral.

(d)

Reclassification Not Permitted. An Elective Deferral contributed to the Plan as one type of Elective Deferral (either a Roth Elective Deferral or a Pre-Tax Elective Deferral) may not later be reclassified as the other type of Elective Deferral.

(e)

Catch-Up Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, Catch-Up Contributions are permitted and Participants who are age 50 or over by the end of their taxable years will be eligible. If this Plan is a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan, Catch-Up Contributions will be treated as Elective Deferrals and will be matched in accordance with the Safe Harbor Matching Contribution formula(s) elected in the Adoption Agreement. If this is a Non-Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan, Catch-Up Contributions will be matched in accordance with the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution formula (if any) elected in the Adoption Agreement unless the Sponsoring Employer elects not to match Catch-Up Contributions in the Adoption Agreement.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 45 of 114		July 2008

(f)

Limitations on Elective Deferrals. In no event may Elective Deferrals be more than the maximum dollar amount permitted for the Participant’s taxable year beginning in that calendar year under Code §402(g). Elective Deferrals that exceed the applicable Code §402(g) limit are Excess Elective Deferrals and will be distributed to the affected Participants under Section 5.18. No Participant will be permitted to have Elective Deferrals made under this Plan, or any other plan, contract or arrangement maintained by the Sponsoring Employer, during any calendar year, in excess of the dollar limit in Code §402(g) in effect for the Participant’s taxable year beginning in such calendar year. The dollar limitation in Code §402(g) is $11,000 for taxable years beginning in 2002, and increasing by $1,000 each taxable year thereafter up to $15,000 for taxable years beginning in 2006 and later years. After 2006, the $15,000 limit will be adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under Code §402(g)(4). Adjustments will be in multiples of $500. Catch-Up Contributions will not be used in determining the Code §402(g) limitations.

(g)

Automatic Enrollment. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Employer may establish an automatic enrollment program. The terms of the automatic enrollment program (which may include, but are not limited to, the Elective Deferral percentage or amount, any automatic increases that apply to that Elective Deferral percentage or amount, the portion of the Elective Deferral which is considered a Pre-Tax Elective Deferral and, if available in this Plan, the portion which is considered a Roth Elective Deferral, and the Participants to whom the automatic enrollment program applies) will be set forth from time to time in an administrative policy regarding Elective Deferrals that is promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator; if the Administrator does not adopt such administrative policy, then the terms of the notice that is issued to Participants regarding the automatic enrollment program will define the terms and conditions of the automatic enrollment program regarding Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year.

(h)

Salary Deferral Agreement. Salary Deferral Agreements may be entered into as of such date or dates (but at least once per Plan Year) as established by the Administrator in an administrative policy regarding Elective Deferrals promulgated under Section 8.6. A Participant may thereafter modify a Salary Deferral Agreement to increase or decrease the percentage or amount being withheld as permitted under such administrative policy. The Participant may also at any time suspend or cancel his or her Salary Deferral Agreement upon reasonable written notice to the Administrator. If a Participant cancels or suspends his or her Salary Deferral Agreement, the Participant will not be permitted to put a new Salary Deferral Agreement into effect until such time as set forth in such administrative policy. If necessary to insure that the Plan satisfies the ADP Test or upon a Participant reaching the Elective Deferral limit of Code §402(g) with respect to such Participant’s Elective Deferrals in the Plan, then the Sponsoring Employer may temporarily suspend a Participant’s Salary Deferral Agreement upon notice to the Participant. If a Participant has not elected in his or her Salary Deferral Agreement to withhold at the maximum rate permitted by the Plan for a Plan Year and the Participant wants to increase the total amount withheld for that Plan Year up to the maximum permitted rate, then the Participant can make a supplemental election at any time during the last two months of the Plan Year to withhold an additional amount for one or more pay periods (including, if elected in the Adoption Agreement, Catch-Up Contributions not in excess of the Catch-Up Contribution Limit). An Elective Deferral will constitute a payroll deduction authorization for purposes of applicable state law. If automatic enrollment is elected in the Adoption Agreement pursuant to paragraph (g) above, then the Participant must be given an effective opportunity to elect a different amount (including no amount).

(i)

ADP Testing. Elective Deferrals in a Non-Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan must satisfy the ADP Test of Section 3.18 for a Plan Year, and Elective Deferrals in a Non-Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan that do not satisfy the ADP Test for a Plan Year will utilize the correction methods of such Section.

(j)

Distribution of Elective Deferrals. Elective Deferrals can only be distributed upon the earliest to occur of the following dates: (1) a Participant Terminates Employment (separates from service, for Plan Years beginning before 2002) with the Employer; (2) a Participant dies; (3) a Participant suffers a Disability; (4) an event that is described in Code §401(k)(10) occurs; (5) a Participant reaches Age 59 ¹ / ₂ (if on or before such date, a pre-retirement in-service withdrawal of Elective Deferrals is elected in the Adoption Agreement); or (6) if financial hardship distributions are elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Participant qualifies for a financial hardship distribution under Section 5.16. With respect to clause (4) of the prior sentence, Elective Deferrals can be distributed (in a lump sum only) upon termination of the Plan, so long as the Sponsoring Employer (or an Affiliated Employer) does not maintain an alternative defined contribution plan at any time during the period beginning on the date of Plan termination and ending 12 months after all assets have been distributed from the terminated Plan. However, if at all times during the 24-month period beginning 12 months before the date of Plan’s termination, fewer than 2% of the Employees who were eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan as of the date of the Plan’s termination are eligible to participate in the other defined contribution plan, the other defined contribution plan is not an alternative defined contribution plan. A defined contribution plan is also not an alternative defined contribution plan if the defined contribution plan is an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Code §4975(e)(7) or Code §409(a), a simplified employee pension as defined in Code §408(k), a SIMPLE IRA plan as defined in Code §408(p), a plan or contract that is described in Code§ 403(b), or a plan that is described in Code §457(b) or Code §457(f).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 46 of 114		July 2008

(k)

Allocation of Elective Deferrals. Participant’s Pre-tax Elective Deferrals will be allocated to the Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account. Each Participant’s Roth Elective Deferrals (if any) will be allocated to the Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account.

3.3

Mandatory Employee Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, then each Participant must make Mandatory Employee Contributions under the terms and conditions as elected in the Adoption Agreement, in order to receive an allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures for an Allocation Period. Mandatory Employee Contributions will be allocated to a Participant’s Mandatory Employee Contribution Account in which the Participant will have a 100% Vested Interest. A Participant can elect to discontinue (or resume) Mandatory Employee Contributions in accordance with procedures established by the Administrator. Mandatory Employee Contribution Accounts will be administered as follows:

(a)

Investment of Accounts. The Administrator may choose for investment purposes either to segregate Mandatory Employee Contribution Accounts into separate interest bearing accounts or to invest Mandatory Employee Contribution Accounts as part of the general Trust Fund (in which case Mandatory Employee Contribution Accounts will share in net income and losses in the manner elected in the Adoption Agreement), except for that portion of a Participant’s Mandatory Employee Contribution Account which a Participant may be permitted to self-direct pursuant to Section 7.4.

(b)

Discontinuance of Contributions in the Event of a Hardship Distribution. If a Participant receives a financial hardship distribution under Section 5.16 (or receive a financial hardship distribution under Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iv)(E) from any other Employer maintained plan as defined in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iv)(F)), he or she will be barred from making Mandatory Employee Contributions for a period of 6 months after the distribution or, such other period of time as set forth in an administrative policy regarding financial hardship distributions promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator.

(c)

ACP Testing. Any Mandatory Employee Contributions made for a Plan Year must satisfy the ACP Test of Section 3.19 for a Plan Year. Mandatory Employee Contributions that do not satisfy the ACP Test will utilize the correction methods of such Section.

(d)

Right to Make Each Rate of Mandatory Employee Contributions. The right to make each rate of Mandatory Employee Contributions (determining the rate based on the Plan’s definition of the Compensation out of which the Mandatory Employee Contributions are made (regardless of whether that definition of Compensation satisfies Code §414(s)), and treating different rates as existing if they are based on definitions of Compensation or other requirements or formulas that are not substantially the same) must not discriminate in favor of Highly Compensated Employees.

3.4

Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. If the Plan is a 401(m) Plan, then the Employer may make Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions as elected in the Adoption Agreement and/or in one or more Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Addenda, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

ACP Testing. Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions made for a Plan Year must satisfy the ACP Test of Section 3.19 for a Plan Year. Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that do not satisfy the ACP Test will utilize the correction methods of such Section.

(b)

Treatment as QMACs. The Administrator may elect to treat all or any portion of a Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution as a QMAC sufficient to satisfy the ADP Test, to the extent that such QMAC is not used to satisfy the ACP Test (but, so long as the QMAC is not precluded from being used in the ACP Test pursuant to Section 3.18(j)(4)(B)).

(c)

True-Ups. If (1) the Allocation Period for Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is a computation period that is less than the Plan Year, and (2) on the last day of any Plan Year, the dollar amount of the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions made on behalf of a Benefiting Participant is less than the dollar amount that would have been made had the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions been contributed for an Allocation Period of a Plan Year, then the Employer may elect, pursuant to the Employer’s discretion, for any Plan Year to make an additional Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution so that the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution contributed for a Benefiting Participant is equal to the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution that would have been made had the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions been contributed for an Allocation Period of the Plan Year. However, any such additional Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions can only be made to the Plan on a uniform, nondiscriminatory basis. In order to determine the group of Participants who are eligible to receive the additional Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions of this paragraph, the Employer may impose allocation conditions that are different from the allocation conditions used to determine Benefiting Participants for purposes of other Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions.

(d)

Prorating the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit for Each Allocation Period. If the Allocation Period for Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is a computation period that is less than the Plan Year, then the Employer may elect, pursuant to the Employer’s discretion, for any Plan Year to prorate the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit to each Allocation Period of the Plan Year. However, any prorating of the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit can only be made on a uniform, nondiscriminatory basis.

(e)

Excess Elective Deferrals and Excess Contributions Not Required to Be Matched. Notwithstanding the above, to the extent Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (including Qualified Matching Contributions) are contributed on an annual basis, no Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution (including Qualified Matching Contributions) will be required with respect to that portion of an Elective Deferral which for that Plan Year is determined to be either an Excess Elective Deferral (unless the Excess Elective Deferral is for a Non-Highly Compensated Employee) or an Excess Contribution. Furthermore, Matching Contributions (including Qualified Matching Contributions) that have been allocated to a Participant’s Account must be forfeited if the contributions to which they relate are Excess Deferrals (unless the Excess Elective Deferrals are for Non-Highly Compensated Employees), Excess Contributions, or Excess Aggregate Contributions.

(f)

Discretionary Formulas. If the Sponsoring Employer elects a discretionary formula in Section 6.1(a) of the 401(k) Plan Adoption Agreement (standardized or non-standardized), the Sponsoring Employer’s discretion in establishing a formula for any Allocation Period includes, but is not limited to, establishing the amount of the contributions, the rate of match, as well as establishing a maximum Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution per Participant (either as a dollar maximum per Participant, a maximum percentage of each Participant’s Compensation, and/or a maximum amount of each Participant’s Elective Deferrals that will be recognized for matching purposes). In addition, the Employer must, on or before the due date (plus any extensions) for filing the Employer’s tax return, adopt a written resolution (or other written action) which describes the rate of match and the maximum limitations, if any, imposed on the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution for the Allocation Period. Any such Matching Contribution will then be allocated to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account in the ratio that each such Benefiting Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the Allocation Period bears to the total Elective Deferrals of all such Benefiting Participants for the Allocation Period, subject to any maximum limitations imposed on the allocation in the written resolution (or other written action).

(g)

Right to Each Rate of Match. The right to each rate of Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (determining the rate using the amount of Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, Elective Deferrals, Voluntary Employee Contributions, and Mandatory Employee Contributions determined after any corrections under Regulation §1.401(k)-2(b)(1)(i) and §1.401(m)-2(b)(1)(i), and treating different rates as existing if they are based on definitions of Compensation or other requirements or formulas that are not substantially the same) must not discriminate in favor of Highly Compensated Employees.

(h)

Allocation of Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions contributed on a Participant’s behalf will be allocated to the Participant’s Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account. All such allocations will be made in the manner elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement and/or the Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Addendum. A Participant who makes an Elective Deferral during the Allocation Period will be eligible to receive an allocation of Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for that Allocation Period as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to impose a service requirement (e.g., 1,000 Hours of Service) in order for a Participant to receive an allocation of Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for an Allocation and the Allocation Period is less than 12 consecutive months, any such service requirement will be proportionately reduced.

3.5

Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. The Employer may make Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions as elected in the Adoption Agreement and/or in one or more Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Addenda, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Allocation of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. A Participant will be eligible to receive an allocation of the Employer’s Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions for that Allocation Period as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to impose a service requirement (e.g., 1,000 Hours of Service) in order for a Participant to receive an allocation of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions for an Allocation and the Allocation Period is less than 12 consecutive months, any such service requirement will be proportionately reduced.

(1)

Allocations Using a Compensation Ratio. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using a Compensation ratio, then the allocation will be made to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Elective Contribution Account in the ratio that his or her Compensation for the Allocation Period bears to the total Compensation of all Benefiting Participants for the Allocation Period.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 48 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Allocations Using the Per Capita Method. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions on a per capita basis, then the allocation will be made to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Elective Contribution Account in an equal dollar amount for the Allocation Period.

(3)

Allocations Using Points. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions based on points awarded to a Participant as elected in the Adoption Agreement, then the allocation will be made to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Elective Contribution Account in the ratio that each Benefiting Participant’s allocation points for the Allocation Period bears to the total allocation points of all Benefiting Participants for the Allocation Period.

(4)

Allocations Using Permitted Disparity. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using permitted disparity, then the allocation will be made using either a 2-step method, a 4-step method, or both, as elected in the Adoption Agreement, in accordance with the following provisions:

(A)

2-Step Method Only. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the 2-)step method for all Allocation Periods, then the contribution will be allocated in the following manner:

(i)

Step 1. An amount will be allocated equal to the lesser of [a] the Maximum Excess Percentage multiplied by a Benefiting Participant’s Excess Compensation; or [b] as elected in the Adoption Agreement, either [1] the greater of 5.7% or the OASI Percentage, [2] 5.4%, or [3] 4.3%, multiplied by a Benefiting Participant’s Excess Compensation.

(ii)

Step 2. The balance of the Employer’s contribution will be allocated in the ratio that his or her Compensation bears to the total Compensation of all Benefiting Participants.

(B)

4-Step Method Only. If the Sponsoring Employer elects the 4-step method for all Allocation Periods, then the contribution will be allocated in the following manner:

(i)

Step 1. First, an amount will be allocated in the ratio that his or her Compensation bears to the total Compensation of all Benefiting Participants, but the maximum amount allocated under this subparagraph will not exceed 3% of a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation. Solely for purposes of the allocation made under this subparagraph (i), the term Benefiting Participant also means any Participant entitled to a Top Heavy Minimum Allocation under Section 3.14.

(ii)

Step 2. Next, an amount will be allocated in the ratio that a Benefiting Participant’s Excess Compensation bears to the total Excess Compensation of all Benefiting Participants, but the maximum amount allocated under this subparagraph will not exceed 3% of a Benefiting Participant’s Excess Compensation.

(iii)

Step 3. Next, an amount will be allocated in the ratio that a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation plus Excess Compensation bears to the total Compensation plus Excess Compensation of all Benefiting Participants, but the maximum amount allocated under this subparagraph will not exceed the Third-Step Integration Percentage of a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation plus Excess Compensation.

(iv)

Step 4. The balance of the contribution will be allocated in the ratio that a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation bears to the total Compensation of all Benefiting Participants.

(C)

2-Step Method and 4-Step Method. If the Sponsoring Employer elects to use the 2-step method in non-Top Heavy Allocation Periods and the 4-step method in Top Heavy Allocation Periods, then the contribution will be allocated as set forth in Section 3.5(a)(4)(A) during non-Top Heavy Allocation Periods and as set forth in Section 3.5(a)(4)(B) during Top Heavy Allocation Periods.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 49 of 114		July 2008

(5)

Allocations Using Allocation Groups. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using allocation groups, then the allocation for each Allocation Group will be made pursuant to the “Allocation Group Addendum” that is attached to the Adoption Agreement; the allocation for each Benefiting Participant will be made to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Elective Contribution Account. The Employer must notify the Trustee of the amount of the Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution to be allocated each Allocation Group.

If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using allocation groups, the Sponsoring Employer may elect in the “Allocation Group Addendum” either that each Benefiting Participant of the Employer will constitute a “separate allocation group” or that specific Benefiting Participants of the Employer will be grouped together in “separate allocation groups” for purposes of allocating Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. However, only a limited number of Allocation Rates is permitted, and the number of Allocation Rates cannot be greater than the maximum allowable number of Allocation Rates. The maximum allowable number of Allocation Rates is equal to the sum of the allowable number of Allocation Rates for eligible Non-Highly Compensated Employees (eligible NHCEs) and the allowable number of Allocation Rates for eligible Highly Compensated Employees (eligible HCEs). The allowable number of Allocation Rates for eligible HCEs is equal to the number of eligible HCEs, limited to 25. The allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates depends on the number of eligible NHCEs, limited to 25. If the Plan has only one or two eligible NHCEs, the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates is one. If the Plan has 3 to 8 eligible NHCEs, then the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates cannot exceed two. If the Plan has 9 to 11 eligible NHCEs, then the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates cannot exceed three. If the Plan has 12 to 19 eligible NHCEs, then the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates cannot exceed four. If the Plan has 20 to 29 eligible NHCEs, then the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates cannot exceed five. If the Plan has 30 or more eligible NHCEs, then the allowable number of NHCE Allocation Rates cannot exceed the number of eligible NHCEs divided by five (rounded down to the next whole number if the result of dividing is not a whole number), but will not exceed 25.

The allocation will be made as follows: First, the total amount of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions is allocated among the Deemed Aggregated Allocation Groups in portions determined by the Employer. Second, within each Deemed Aggregated Allocation Group, the allocated portion is allocated to each Benefiting Participant in the ratio that such Benefiting Participant’s Compensation, bears to the total Compensation of all each Benefiting Participants in the group.

(6)

Allocations Using Age Weighting. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to allocate Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions using age weighting, then a Benefiting Participant’s Age Weighting Factor for any Plan Year will be determined by multiplying the Benefiting Participant’s Compensation by the appropriate percentage (based upon the Benefiting Participant’s Age) set forth in the “Age-Weighted Table Addendum” that is attached to the Adoption Agreement. The allocation will be made to each Benefiting Participant’s Non-Elective Contribution Account in the ratio that his or her Age Weighting Factor for the Allocation Period bears to the total Age Weighting Factors of all Benefiting Participants for the Allocation Period.

(b)

Effect of Top Heavy on Allocation Method. Notwithstanding anything in the Section to the contrary, if the Plan is Top Heavy for any Plan Year, and if the allocation method that is elected in the Adoption Agreement (along with any other allocations that are permitted to be used to satisfy the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements of Section 3.14) does not satisfy the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements (because, for example, either a Benefiting Participant’s Compensation that is used in the allocation method does not satisfy Code §415(c)(3) Compensation, the Compensation Determination Period is other than the entire Plan Year, or the allocation method is not sufficient to allocate the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation to any Non-Key Employee), then the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation will be allocated first before (or, simultaneous with, if no Key Employee has any Employer contributions (including any Elective Deferrals made on behalf of a Key Employee to a 401(k) Plan maintained by the Employer) or Forfeitures allocated to the Participant’s Account for that Plan Year) any allocations under the allocation method. However, the allocation method may take into account such Top Heavy Minimum Allocation.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 50 of 114		July 2008

3.6

Prevailing Wage Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Employer will make Prevailing Wage Contributions to the Plan for the Prevailing Wage Service of each Prevailing Wage Employee, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Amount of Prevailing Wage Contributions. The Prevailing Wage Contribution for each Prevailing Wage Employee will be based on the hourly contribution rate required under the applicable Prevailing Wage Law for each such Employee’s employment classification at which Prevailing Wage Law services are performed by each such Employee that are not being paid as wages or being used to provide other benefits.

(b)

Frequency of Prevailing Wage Contributions. Prevailing Wage Contributions will be contributed to the Plan as frequently as required under the applicable Prevailing Wage Law.

(c)

Allocation/Utilization of Prevailing Wage Contributions . Prevailing Wage Contributions will be allocated/utilized in any (or all) of the following ways:

(1)

Used as a Qualified Non-Elective Contribution for a 401(k) Plan and/or a 401(m) Plan. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan and/or a 401(m) Plan, then all or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contributions can be used as a Qualified Non-Elective Contribution.

(2)

Used as a Qualified Matching Contribution for a 401(k) Plan and/or a 401(m) Plan. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan and/or a 401(m) Plan, then all or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contributions can be used as a Qualified Matching Contributions, to the extent that the Participant has Elective Deferrals made to the Plan on his or her behalf.

(3)

Allocated to the Prevailing Wage Account. All or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contributions can be allocated to the Prevailing Wage Account of each Participant eligible to share in the allocation of such Prevailing Wage Contributions; and/or

(4)

Offset Other Contributions. All or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contributions can be used first to offset any type(s) of Employer contributions (other than Elective Deferrals). If Prevailing Wage Contributions remain after the offset(s) of the prior sentence, then the remaining Prevailing Wage Contributions will be allocated to the Prevailing Wage Account of each Participant eligible to share in the allocation of such remaining Prevailing Wage Contributions.

3.7

Qualified Matching Contributions. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan or a 401(m) Plan, then the Employer may make a Qualified Matching Contribution in such amount as the Employer, in its sole discretion, may determine, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Contributions Treated as Qualified Matching Contributions. The Employer may elect to treat all or any portion of a Matching Contribution as a Qualified Matching Contribution. Furthermore, the Employer may elect to treat all or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contribution as a Qualified Matching Contribution, to the extent that the Participant has Elective Deferrals made on his or her behalf, in which event such Prevailing Wage Contributions will be subject to same Vesting and distribution requirements that apply to Qualified Matching Contributions.

(b)

Allocation of Qualified Matching Contributions. Qualified Matching Contributions (QMACs), and any Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that are treated as QMACs, will be allocated to the Qualified Matching Contribution Account of each Eligible Participant for that Allocation Period. Such contributions will be allocated in the manner elected by the Administrator, subject to the following:

(1)

Permissible Methods of Allocation. The Administrator may elect to make the allocation from one of the following allocation methods: (A) pro-rata based on the Compensation of each Eligible Participant; (B) pro-rata based on the Compensation of each Eligible Participant starting with the Eligible Participant with the lowest amount of Compensation and working up until the ADP Test or the ACP Test is satisfied; (C) pro-rata based on the Elective Deferrals of each Eligible Participant starting with the Eligible Participant with the lowest amount of Elective Deferrals and working up until the ADP Test or the ACP Test is satisfied; (D) per capita to each Eligible Participant; (E) per capita based on the Compensation of each Eligible Participant starting with the Eligible Participant with the lowest amount of Compensation and working up until the ADP Test or the ACP Test is satisfied; or (F) per capita based on the Elective Deferrals of each Eligible Participant starting with the Eligible Participant with the lowest amount of Elective Deferrals and working up until the ADP Test or the ACP Test is satisfied.

(2)

Maximum Permissible Allocation. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph (b) to the contrary, the Sponsoring Employer may limit the maximum amount of QMACs that will be allocated for any Allocation Period to an Eligible Participant, to the limitation on disproportionate QMACs as described in Section 3.18(j)(4)(B) for purposes of the ADP Test or the limitation on disproportionate Matching Contributions as described in Section 3.19(h) or (i) for purposes of the ACP Test.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 51 of 114		July 2008

(3)

Eligible Participants. As used in this paragraph (b), the term “Eligible Participant” means any Participant who is a NHCE and who makes an Elective Deferral during the Allocation Period being tested. Furthermore, the Administrator may elect to limit the allocations of QMACs only to Eligible Participants who are employed on the last day of the Allocation Period. In addition, if this 401(k) Plan and/or this 401(m) Plan provides that Otherwise Excludable Participants are eligible to participate and if the plan applies Code §410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the 401(k) Plan and/or the 401(m) Plan meets the requirements of Code §410(b)(1), then the Administrator may elect to limit the allocations of QMACs only to either: (A) Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees and who are Otherwise Excludable Participants; or (B) Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees and who are not Otherwise Excludable Participants. The Administrator may also elect to allocate QMACs to one or more Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees.

3.8

Qualified Non-Elective Contributions. If the Plan is a Code §401(k) Plan or a Code §401(m) Plan, then the Employer may make a Qualified Non-Elective Contribution to the Plan in such amount as the Employer, in its sole discretion, may determine, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

Contributions Treated as Qualified Non-Elective Contributions. The Employer may elect to treat all or any portion of a Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution as a Qualified Non-Elective Contribution. The Employer may also elect to treat all or any portion of a Participant’s Prevailing Wage Contribution as a Qualified Non-Elective Contribution, in which event such Prevailing Wage Contributions will be subject to same Vesting and distribution requirements that apply to Qualified Non-Elective Contributions.

(b)

Allocation of Qualified Non-Elective Contributions. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions (QNECS), Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions that are treated as QNECS, and Prevailing Wage Contributions that are treated as QNECS will be allocated to the Qualified Non-Elective Contribution Account of each Eligible Participant for that Allocation Period. Such contributions will be allocated in the manner elected by the Administrator, subject to the following:

(1)

(2)

Maximum Permissible Allocation. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph (b) to the contrary, the Sponsoring Employer may limit the maximum amount of QNECs to be allocated for any Allocation Period to an Eligible Participant, to the limitation on disproportionate QNECs as described in paragraph 3.18(j)(4)(A) for purposes of the ADP Test or Section 1.44(e)(4) for purposes of the ACP Test.

(3)

Eligible Participants. As used in this paragraph (b), the term “Eligible Participant” means any Participant (A) who is a NHCE, and (B) who is eligible, in the Administrator’s discretion, either to make an Elective Deferral (regardless of whether such Participant actually makes an Elective Deferral) and/or to receive a Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution (regardless of whether such Participant actually receives a Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contribution) during the Allocation Period being tested. Furthermore, the Administrator may elect to limit the allocations of QNECs only to Eligible Participants who are employed on the last day of the Allocation Period. In addition, if this 401(k) Plan and/or this 401(m) Plan provides that Otherwise Excludable Participants are eligible to participate and if the plan applies Code §410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the 401(k) Plan and/or the 401(m) Plan meets the requirements of Code §410(b)(1), then the Administrator may elect to limit the allocations of QNECs only to either: (A) Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees and who are Otherwise Excludable Participants; or (B) Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees and who are not Otherwise Excludable Participants. Lastly, the Administrator may elect to allocate QNECs to one or more Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 52 of 114		July 2008

3.9

Rollover Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, then subject to any changes, limitations, or effective dates adopted by written notice and/or procedures established and adopted by the Administrator pursuant to Section 8.6, any Employee who is permitted to make Rollover Contributions as elected in the Adoption Agreement may make such Rollover Contributions into the Plan from the types of plans as elected in the Adoption Agreement. Rollover Contributions can also include various types of rollovers as elected in the Adoption Agreement. Rollover Contributions will be allocated to an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account in which the Employee will have a 100% Vested Interest. If enumerated in the Effective Date Addendum, then this Plan will not permit an Employee to make additional Rollover Contributions to the Plan on or after the date that is enumerated in the Effective Date Addendum. However, any Rollover Contributions made before such date will continue to be maintained in the Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account. The Administrator may choose for investment purposes either to segregate Rollover Contribution Accounts into separate interest bearing accounts or to invest Rollover Contribution Accounts as part of the general Trust Fund, except for that portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account which he or she may be permitted to self-direct under Section 7.4.

3.10

Safe Harbor 401(k) Contributions. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then the Employer may make Safe Harbor 401(k) Contributions as elected in the Adoption Agreement, subject to the following provisions:

(a)

ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. If the Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement (or to the extent the Employer amends the Plan either by amending the Adoption Agreement or via the Safe Harbor Notice), then the Employer will make an ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution equal to 3% (or such higher percentage as elected by the Employer) of the Compensation of each Safe Harbor Participant. The Employer may elect in the Adoption Agreement to make this ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution to a money purchase plan named in the Adoption Agreement. For any Allocation Period in which the Employer elects to make an ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution to the named money purchase plan, an ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution will be made to this Plan in lieu of the ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution to the money purchase plan unless each Safe Harbor Participant under this Plan also participates in such other plan and such other plan has the same Plan Year as this Plan. Such ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution will be subject to the provisions of Section 3.20.

(b)

ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, an ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution (whether “Basic” or “Enhanced” as elected in the Adoption Agreement) will be made that is equal to the amount specified in the Adoption Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 3.20.

(c)

ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Employer may also make additional ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for each Allocation Period. Such ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution will be subject to the provisions of Section 3.21.

(d)

True-Ups. If (1) the Allocation Period for either ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions and/or ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (which contributions, for purposes of this paragraph, will hereafter be known as “Safe Harbor Matching Contributions”) is a computation period that is less than the Plan Year, and (2) on the last day of any Plan Year, the dollar amount of the Safe Harbor Matching Contributions made on behalf of a Benefiting Participant is less than the dollar amount that would have been made had the Safe Harbor Matching Contributions been contributed for an Allocation Period of a Plan Year, then the Employer may elect, pursuant to the Employer’s discretion and subject to any Safe Harbor Notice requirements, for any Plan Year to make an additional Safe Harbor Matching Contribution so that the Safe Harbor Matching Contribution contributed for a Benefiting Participant is equal to the Safe Harbor Matching Contribution that would have been made had the Safe Harbor Matching Contributions been contributed for an Allocation Period of the Plan Year. However, any such additional Safe Harbor Matching Contributions can only be made to the Plan on a uniform, nondiscriminatory basis.

(e)

Prorating the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit for Each Allocation Period. If the Allocation Period for either ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions and/or ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is a computation period that is less than the Plan Year, then the Employer may elect, pursuant to the Employer’s discretion and subject to any Safe Harbor Notice requirements, for any Plan Year to prorate the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit to each Allocation Period of the Plan Year. However, any prorating of the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit can only be made on a uniform, nondiscriminatory basis.

(f)

Allocation of Safe Harbor 401(k) Contributions. Safe Harbor 401(k) Contributions will be allocated as follows: (1) ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions will be allocated to a Participant’s ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account; (2) ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions will be allocated to a Participant’s ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account; and (3) ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions will be allocated to a Participant’s ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 53 of 114		July 2008

3.11

Voluntary Employee Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, each Participant may make Voluntary Employee Contributions for a Plan Year, but no later than 30 days after the end of the Plan Year for which such Voluntary Employee Contribution is deemed to be made. Such Voluntary Employee Contributions will be allocated to a Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account in which the Participant will have a 100% Vested Interest. If enumerated in the Effective Date Addendum, then this Plan will not permit a Participant to make additional Voluntary Employee Contributions to the Plan on or after the date that is enumerated in the Effective Date Addendum. However, any Voluntary Employee Contributions made before such date will continue to be maintained in the Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account. Voluntary Employee Contribution Accounts will be administered in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Investment of Accounts. The Administrator may choose for investment purposes either to segregate Voluntary Employee Contribution Accounts into separate interest bearing accounts or to invest Voluntary Employee Contribution Accounts as part of the general Trust Fund (in which case Voluntary Employee Contribution Accounts will share in net income and losses in the manner elected in the Adoption Agreement), except for that portion of a Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account which a Participant may be permitted to self-direct pursuant to Section 7.4.

(b)

Discontinuance of Contributions in the Event of a Financial Hardship Distribution. If a Participant receives a financial hardship distribution under Section 5.16 (or receives a financial hardship distribution from any other Employer maintained plan), he or she will be barred from making Voluntary Employee Contributions for a period of 6 months after the distribution, or such other period of time as set forth in an administrative policy regarding financial hardship distributions promulgated by the Administrator.

(c)

ACP Testing. Any Voluntary Employee Contributions made for a Plan Year must satisfy the ACP Test of Section 3.19 for a Plan Year. Voluntary Employee Contributions that do not satisfy the ACP Test will utilize the correction methods of such Section.

(d)

Right to Make Each Rate of Voluntary Employee Contributions. The right to make each rate of Voluntary Employee Contributions (determining the rate based on the Plan’s definition of the Compensation out of which the Voluntary Employee Contributions are made (regardless of whether that definition of Compensation satisfies Code §414(s)), and treating different rates as existing if they are based on definitions of Compensation or other requirements or formulas that are not substantially the same) must not discriminate in favor of Highly Compensated Employees.

3.12

Allocation of Earnings and Losses. As of each Valuation Date, amounts in Participants’ accounts/sub-accounts which have not been segregated from the general Trust Fund for investment purposes (accounts which have been segregated include any Directed Investment Accounts established under Section 7.4) and which have not been distributed since the prior Valuation Date will have the net income of the Trust Fund that has been earned since the prior Valuation Date allocated in accordance with such rules and procedures that are established by the Administrator and that are applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner based upon the investments of the Trust Fund and the Participants’ accounts/sub-accounts to which the net income is allocated. For purposes of this Section, the term “net income” means the net of any interest, dividends, unrealized appreciation and depreciation, capital gains and losses, and investment expenses of the Trust Fund determined on each Valuation Date. However, Participants’ accounts/sub-accounts which have been segregated from the general Trust Fund for investment purposes (accounts which have been segregated include any Directed Investment Accounts established under Section 7.4) will only have the net income earned thereon allocated thereto. Policy dividends or credits will be allocated to the Participant’s Account for whose benefit the Policy is held.

3.13

Forfeitures and Their Usage. The following provisions relate to Forfeitures and their usage and allocation:

(a)

Provisions Related to Forfeitures. The following provisions relate to Forfeitures:

(1)

Distribution of Entire Vested Interest (or After 5 Consecutive Breaks in Service, If Earlier). If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will occur as of the earlier of (A) the date that the Participant who Terminated Employment receives a distribution of his or her Vested Interest under Article 5, or (B) the date that the Participant incurs five consecutive Breaks in Service after Termination of Employment, then the provisions of this paragraph apply. Effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations) with respect to any 401(k) Plan, a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will not occur pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of the prior sentence unless the entire Elective Deferral Account of the Participant who Terminated Employment is or has been distributed. Furthermore, if a Participant’s Vested Interest in the entire Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions is zero on the date that the Participant Terminates Employment, then the Participant will be deemed to have received a distribution of such Vested Interest on the date of such Termination of Employment and a Forfeiture of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions will occur pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) on the date of such Termination of Employment.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 54 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Consecutive Breaks in Service. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions will occur when a Participant incurs a specified number of consecutive Breaks in Service (up to a maximum of five (5) consecutive Breaks in Service) after Termination of Employment, then a Forfeiture will not occur prior to such date, even if the Participant receives a distribution of the entire Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions prior to such date.

(b)

Usage and Allocation of Forfeitures. On each annual Valuation Date, the Administrator may elect to use all or any portion of the Forfeiture Account to pay administrative expenses incurred by the Plan. The portion of the Forfeiture Account that is not used to pay administrative expenses will be used first to restore previous Forfeitures of Participants’ Accounts pursuant to Section 5.7 and/or to restore Participants’ Accounts pursuant to Section 5.13. The portion of the Forfeiture Account that is not used to pay administrative expenses and is not used to satisfy the provisions of the previous sentence will then be allocated/used as elected in the Adoption Agreement pursuant to either (1) or (2) as follows:

(1)

Profit Sharing and Money Purchase Plans. For a profit sharing plan or money purchase plan, the Forfeiture Account, as elected in the Adoption Agreement, will either (A) be allocated to Participants in the manner elected; (B) be used to reduce the Employer’s contribution; or (C) be added to the Employer’s contribution, to be allocated therewith in the manner elected in the Adoption Agreement.

(2)

401(k) Plans. For a 401(k) Plan, the Forfeiture Account will, as elected in the Adoption Agreement, either (A) be allocated to Participants in the manner elected; (B) be used to reduce any Employer contribution (or combination of Employer contributions), as determined by the Administrator; or (C) be added to any Employer contribution (or combination of Employer contributions), as determined by the Administrator, to be allocated therewith in the manner elected in the Adoption Agreement.

3.14

Top Heavy Minimum Allocation. In any Plan Year in which the Plan is Top Heavy and a Key Employee receives an allocation of Employer contributions or Forfeitures, each Participant who is described in paragraph (a) below will receive a Top Heavy Minimum Allocation determined in accordance with the following:

(a)

Participants Who Must Receive the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation. The Top Heavy Minimum Allocation will be made for each Participant who is a Non-Key Employee (and to any other Participant (including any Key Employee), if elected in the Adoption Agreement) who is employed by an Employer on the last day of the Plan Year, even if such Participant (1) fails to complete any minimum Hours of Service or Period of Service that is required to receive an allocation of Employer contributions or Forfeitures for the Plan Year; (2) fails to make Elective Deferrals if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan; (3) fails to make a Mandatory Employee Contribution to the Plan; or (4) receives Compensation that is less than a stated amount. The Top Heavy Minimum Allocation is not required to be allocated to any Rollover Participant.

(b)

Participation in Multiple Defined Contribution Plans. If (1) this Plan is not part of a Required Aggregation Group or a Permissive Aggregation Group with a defined benefit plan, (2) this Plan is part of a Required Aggregation Group or a Permissive Aggregation Group with one or more defined contribution plans, (3) a Participant who is described in paragraph (a) participates in this Plan and in one or more defined contribution plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group, and (4) the allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures of each plan that is part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group (when each plan is considered separately) is insufficient to satisfy the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirement with respect to such Participant, the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirement will nevertheless be satisfied if the aggregate allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures that are made on behalf of such Participant under this Plan and all other defined contribution plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group (and any other defined contribution plan that is sponsored by the Employer) is sufficient to satisfy the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirement. However, if the aggregate allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures that are made on behalf of a Participant under this Plan and all other defined contribution plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group (and any other defined contribution plan that is sponsored by the Employer) is not sufficient to satisfy the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirement, then the Employer will make an additional contribution on behalf of such Participant to this Plan and/or to one or more defined contribution plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group (or any other defined contribution plan that is sponsored by the Employer) in order that the aggregate allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures that are made on behalf of such Participant under this Plan and all defined contribution plans that are part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group (and any other defined contribution plan that is sponsored by the Employer) satisfies the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirement.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 55 of 114		July 2008

(c)

DB Plan Part of Required Aggregation Group or Permissive Aggregation Group. If this Plan is part of a Required Aggregation Group or a Permissive Aggregation Group with a defined benefit plan, then the Sponsoring Employer may, in the Sponsoring Employer’s discretion and in a uniform non-discriminatory manner which is intended to satisfy the requirements of Code §416(f) regarding the preclusion of required duplication and inappropriate omission of Top Heavy minimum benefits or Top Heavy Minimum Allocations, determine to satisfy the requirements of Code §416 with respect to each Participant described in paragraph (a) who participates in this Plan and in the defined benefit plan which is part of the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group, by any of the following methods:

(1)

Defined Benefit Minimum Benefit. A defined benefit minimum, which is an accrued benefit at any point in time equal to at least the product of (A) an Employee’s average annual Code §415(c)(3) Compensation for the period of consecutive years (not exceeding five) when the Employee had the highest aggregate Code §415(c)(3) Compensation from the Employer and (B) the lesser of 2% per Year of Service or 1-Year Period of Service, as applicable, with the Employer or 20%, subject to the rules of Code §416 and the Regulations thereunder.

(2)

Floor Offset Arrangement. A floor offset approach, pursuant to Revenue Ruling 76-259, under which the defined benefit minimum of the defined benefit plan that is provided pursuant to paragraph (c)(1) is offset by the benefits provided under the defined contribution plan.

(3)

Using Comparability. A demonstration, using a comparability analysis pursuant to Revenue Ruling 81-202, that the plans are providing benefits at least equal to the defined benefit minimum that is provided pursuant to paragraph (c)(1).

(4)

5% Defined Contribution Allocation. An allocation of Employer contributions and Forfeitures that are made on behalf of such Participant under this Plan (or any defined contribution plan that is sponsored by the Employer) equal 5% of an Employee’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation for each Plan Year that the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group is Top Heavy.

(d)

Frozen DB Plan after December 31, 2001. In determining Top Heavy minimum benefits or Top Heavy Minimum Allocations in any Plan Year which begins after December 31, 2001, a defined benefit plan in which no Key Employee and no former Key Employee benefits (within the meaning of Code §410(b)) in the defined benefit plan during a Plan Year will be disregarded in determining whether the defined benefit plan is part of a Required Aggregation Group or a Permissive Aggregation Group with this Plan.

(e)

Contributions That Can Be Used to Satisfy Top Heavy Minimum. All Employer contributions to the Plan (other than (1) Elective Deferrals that are made on behalf of a Participant to a 401(k) Plan and (2) for Plan Years beginning before 2002, Matching Contributions) will be taken into account in determining if the Employer has satisfied the Top Heavy minimum benefit and/or Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements of this Section. Furthermore, the following Employer contributions that are made on behalf of a Participant to a 401(k) Plan may be taken into account in determining whether the Top Heavy minimum benefit and/or Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements have been satisfied: Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions; Qualified Non-Elective Contributions; ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions; for Plan Years beginning after 2001, Matching Contributions (including Qualified Matching Contributions); and any other Employer contributions as may be permitted by law.

(f)

Safe Harbor Plan and SIMPLE 401(k) Plan Exceptions. The Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements will not apply to the Plan for any Plan Year in which the Plan is a 401(k) Plan that consists solely of Elective Deferrals, ADP Safe Harbor Contributions which meet the requirements of Code §401(k)(12), and, if applicable, ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (including ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) which meet the requirements of Code §401(m)(11), so long as each Participant (1) who is a Non-Key Employee and (2) who is eligible to make Elective Deferrals is also a Safe Harbor Participant for such Plan Year. Also, a SIMPLE 401(k) Plan is not subject to the Top Heavy Minimum Allocation requirements.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 56 of 114		July 2008

3.15

Failsafe Allocation. If elected in the Adoption Agreement and the Plan (or a component of the Plan) for any Plan Year fails to satisfy the nondiscriminatory classification test of Code §410(b)(2)(A)(i) and Regulation §1.410(b)-4 and/or the average benefit percentage test of Code §410(b)(2)(A)(ii) and Regulation §1.410(b)-5, then certain allocations will be made under this Section only to the extent necessary to insure that the Plan (or such component of the Plan) for such Plan Year satisfies one of the tests set forth in either Code §410(b)(1)(A) (in which the Plan initially fails to benefit at least 70% of the non-excludable NHCEs), or Code §410(b)(1)(B) (in which the Plan initially fails to benefit a percentage of the non-excludable NHCEs that is at least 70% of the percentage of the non-excludable HCEs), pursuant to the following rules:

(a)

Order of Accrual Groups. To satisfy one of the above tests for such Plan Year, an allocation may be made to certain Employees in the following groups (hereafter known as “Accrual Groups”) in the following order:

(1)

First Accrual Group. First, an allocation may be made to that group of Employees who were Participants for the Plan Year but who did not receive an allocation for the Plan Year.

(2)

Second Accrual Group. Next, an allocation may be made to that group of Employees who have not yet satisfied the eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 and who are Eligible Employees.

(3)

Third Accrual Group. Next, an allocation may be made to that group of Employees who have satisfied the eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 and who are not Eligible Employees.

(4)

Fourth Accrual Group. Finally, an allocation may be made to that group of Employees who have not yet satisfied the eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 and who are not Eligible Employees.

(b)

Priority within an Accrual Group. To determine each Employee’s priority within an Accrual Group, Employees will be ranked as elected in the Adoption Agreement.

(c)

Employees Who Share and the Amount of Allocation. Only those Employees who are required to benefit under the Plan (or the component of the Plan) for the Plan Year in order to satisfy one of the above tests will be entitled to an allocation, even if the number of Employees who are required to benefit is less than the total number of Employees within a specific Accrual Group. Such allocation will be made on the same basis as, and using the same allocation formula and method as, the allocation that is made to each Participant who is an otherwise Benefiting Participant for such Plan Year with respect to the Plan (or such component of the Plan). The right of an Employee who is eligible to receive an allocation under this Section for a Plan Year will be fixed as of the last day of such Plan Year.

3.16

SIMPLE 401(k) Provisions. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to have the SIMPLE 401(k) provisions apply, the following provisions will apply each Year the election is in effect:

(a)

Certain Conditions Which Must Be Satisfied. The following conditions must be satisfied each Year (as defined in paragraph (b) below) in order for the terms of this Section to apply: (1) the Employer adopting this amendment must be an Eligible Employer (as defined in paragraph (b) below); (2) no contributions are made, or benefits accrued for services during the Year, on behalf of any Eligible Employee (as defined in paragraph (b) below) under any other plan, contract, pension, or trust described in Code §219(g)(5)(A) or (B), maintained by the Employer; and (3) if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the SIMPLE 401(k) provisions in the Adoption Agreement, then to the extent that any other provision of the Plan is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section, the provisions of this Section will govern.

(b)

Definitions. The following terms have the following meanings for purposes of this Section:

(1)

Year. The term “Year” means the calendar year.

(2)

Eligible Employee. The term “Eligible Employee” means any Employee who is entitled to make Elective Deferrals under the terms of this Section of the Plan.

(3)

Eligible Employer. The term “Eligible Employer” means, with respect to any Year, an Employer that had no more than 100 Employees who received at least $5,000 of Compensation from the Employer for the preceding Year. In applying the preceding sentence, all Employees of controlled groups of corporations under Code §414(b), all Employees of trades or businesses (whether incorporated or not) under common control under Code §414(c), all Employees of affiliated service groups under Code §414(m), and Leased Employees required to be treated as the Employer’s Employees under Code §414(n), are taken into account. An Eligible Employer that adopts this amendment and fails to be an Eligible Employer for any subsequent Year is treated as an Eligible Employer for the 2 Years following the last Year the Employer was an Eligible Employer. If the failure is due to any acquisition, disposition, or similar transaction involving an Eligible Employer, the preceding sentence applies only if the provisions of Code §410(b)(6)(C)(i) are satisfied.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 57 of 114		July 2008

(4)

Compensation. The term “Compensation” means the sum of the wages, tips and other compensation from the Employer subject to federal income tax withholding (as described in Code §6051(a)(3)) and the Employee’s Elective Deferrals made under this or any other 401(k) Plan, and, if applicable, elective deferrals under a Code §408(p) SIMPLE plan, a SARSEP, or a Code §403(b) annuity contract and compensation deferred under a Code §457 plan, required to be reported by the Employer on Form W-2 as described in Code §6051(a)(8). For Self-Employed Individuals, the term “Compensation” means net earnings from self-employment determined under Code §1402(a) prior to subtracting any contributions made under this Plan on behalf of the individual. The Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit applies to the Compensation under this Section except with respect to Matching Contributions, if any, made in accordance with paragraph (f) below.

(c)

Salary Reduction Election. Each Eligible Employee may make a salary reduction election to have his or her Compensation reduced for the Year in any amount selected by the Eligible Employee. The Employer will make a salary reduction contribution to the Plan, as an Elective Deferral, in the amount by which the Eligible Employee’s Compensation has been reduced. The limitation on salary reduction contributions is $7,000 for 2002 and increasing by $1,000 for each Year thereafter up to $10,000 for 2005 and later Years. After 2005, the $10,000 limit will be adjusted (but only in $500 increments) by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under Code §408(p)(2)(E). Beginning in 2002, the amount of an Eligible Employee’s salary reduction contributions permitted for a Year is increased for Eligible Employees aged 50 or over by the end of the Year by the amount of allowable Catch-Up Contributions. The Catch-Up Contribution Limit in a SIMPLE 401(k) Plan is $500 for 2002, increasing by $500 for each Year thereafter up to $2,500 for 2006. After 2006, the Catch-Up Contribution Limit of $2,500 will be adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under Code §414(v)(2)(C). Any such adjustments will be in multiples of $500. Catch-Up Contributions are otherwise treated the same as other salary reduction contributions.

(d)

Election Period. In addition to any other election periods provided under the Plan, each Eligible Employee may make or modify a salary reduction election during the 60-day period immediately preceding each January 1st. For the Year that an Eligible Employee becomes eligible to make Elective Deferrals under this Section, the 60-day election period requirement of this Section is deemed satisfied if the Eligible Employee may make or modify a salary reduction election during a 60-day period that includes either the date the Eligible Employee becomes eligible or the day before. An Eligible Employee may terminate a salary reduction election any time during the Year.

(e)

Notice Requirements. The Employer will notify each Eligible Employee prior to the 60-day election period described in paragraph (d) that he or she can make a salary reduction election or modify a prior election in that period. The notification will indicate whether the Employer will provide a 3% Matching Contribution of paragraph (f) or a 2% Non-Elective Contribution of paragraph (g).

(f)

Matching Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Employer will contribute a Matching Contribution each Year on behalf of each Eligible Employee who makes a salary reduction election under paragraph (c) above. The amount of the Matching Contribution will be equal to the Eligible Employee’s Elective Deferrals up to, as elected in the Adoption Agreement, either (1) a limit of 3% of the Eligible Employee’s Compensation for the full calendar Year; or (2) a reduced limit, provided the following requirements are met: (A) The limit is not reduced below 1%; (B) The limit is not reduced for more than 2 calendar Years during the 5-Year period ending with the calendar Year the reduction is effective; and (C) each Eligible Employee is notified of the reduced Matching Contribution limit within a reasonable period of time before such Eligible Employee’s 60-day election period for that calendar Year. For purposes of (B) above, the limit is not reduced for any Year that any SIMPLE Plan of the Employer is not in effect or for any calendar Year with respect to which the Employer makes Non-Elective Contributions to a SIMPLE Plan.

(g)

Non-Elective Contributions. If elected in the Adoption Agreement by the Sponsoring Employer, the Employer will contribute a Non-Elective Contribution of 2% of Compensation for the full calendar Year for each Eligible Employee who received at least $5,000 of Compensation from the Employer for the Year, or such lesser amount of Compensation as elected in the Adoption Agreement.

(h)

Limitation on Other Contributions. No Employer or Employee contributions may be made to this Plan for the Year other than salary reduction contributions of paragraph (c) above, Matching Contributions of paragraph (f) above, Non-Elective Contributions of paragraph (g) above, and Rollover Contributions as described in Regulation §1.402(c)-2, Q & A-1(a).

(i)

Code §415 Limitations. The provisions of this Plan implementing the limitations of Code §415 apply to Matching Contributions and Non-Elective Contributions.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 58 of 114		July 2008

(j)

Vesting. All benefits attributable to contributions made under this Section are 100% Vested at all times and all previous contributions made under the Plan are 100% Vested as of the beginning of the Year that the SIMPLE 401(k) provisions of this Section apply to the Plan.

(k)

Top Heavy Rules. The Plan is not treated as a Top Heavy Plan under Code §416 for any Year for which the provisions of this Section are effective and satisfied.

(l)

Nondiscrimination Tests. The Plan is treated as meeting the requirements of Code §401(k)(3)(A)(ii) and §401(m)(2) for any Year for which the provisions of this Section are effective and satisfied.

3.17

Deemed IRA Contributions. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement, then each Participant may make Deemed IRA Contributions to the Plan and the following provisions will apply:

(a)

Limitations on Deemed IRA Contributions. No Deemed IRA Contributions will be accepted unless such contributions are in cash. The total of such contributions will not exceed the following annual cash contribution limit: (1) $3,000 for any taxable year beginning in 2002 through 2004; (2) $4,000 for any taxable year beginning in 2005 through 2007; and (3) $5,000 for any taxable year beginning in 2008 and years thereafter. After 2008, the annual cash contribution limit of the prior sentence will be adjusted by the Secretary of the Treasury for cost-of-living increases under Code §219(b)(5)(C). Such adjustments will be in multiples of $500. In the case of Participants who are age 50 or over by the end of their taxable years, the annual cash contribution limit is increased by $500 for each taxable year beginning in 2002 through 2005 and $1,000 for each taxable year beginning in 2006 and years thereafter.

(b)

Investments of Contributions. A Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be invested in such assets as permitted by Code §408. If a Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account acquires collectibles within the meaning of Code §408(m) after December 31, 1981, then such assets of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be treated as a distribution in an amount equal to the cost of such collectibles. No portion of a Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be invested in life insurance contracts.

(c)

100% Vesting and Separate Records. An Employee will have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her Deemed IRA Contribution Account at all times. Separate records will be maintained for each Participant.

(d)

Application of Code §408(a)(6) to Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, the distribution of a Participant’s interest in the Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be made in accordance with the requirements of Code §408(a)(6) and the Regulations thereunder, the provisions of which are herein incorporated by reference. If distributions are made from an annuity contract purchased from an insurance company, then distributions thereunder must satisfy the requirements of Temporary Regulations §1.401(a)(9)-6T, Q&A-4, rather than paragraphs (d)(1)(A), (d)(1)(B) and (d)(1)(C) below and Section 5.9. The required minimum distributions calculated for this Deemed IRA Contribution Account may be withdrawn from another IRA of the individual in accordance with Regulation §1.408-8, Q&A-9. Distribution of a Participant’s interest in the Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be made in accordance with the following:

(1)

General Rules. All distributions from Participant’s Deemed IRA Contribution Account will be made in accordance with the following general rules:

(A)

Required Beginning Date. The entire value of the account of the individual for whose benefit the account is maintained will commence to be distributed no later than April 1st following the calendar year in which such individual attains age 70 ¹ / ₂ (known as the “Required Beginning Date”) over the life of such individual or the lives of such individual and his or her designated beneficiary;

(B)

Distributable Amount. The amount to be distributed each year, beginning with the calendar year in which the individual attains age 70 ¹ / ₂ and continuing through the year of death, will not be less than the quotient obtained by dividing the value of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account as of the end of the preceding year by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-2, using the individual’s age as of his or her birthday in the year. However, if the individual’s sole designated beneficiary is his or her surviving spouse and such spouse is more than 10 years younger than the individual, then the distribution period is determined under the Joint and Last Survivor Table in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-3, using the ages as of the individual’s and spouse’s birthdays in the year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 59 of 114		July 2008

(C)

Timing of Distributions. The required minimum distribution for the year that the individual attains age 70 ¹ / ₂ can be made as late as April 1st of the following year. The required minimum distribution for any other year must be made by the end of such year.

(2)

Required Minimum Distributions After the Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be made after a Participant’s death in accordance with the following provisions:

(A)

Death On or After Required Beginning Date. If the individual dies on or after the Required Beginning Date, his or her remaining interest will be distributed at least as rapidly as follows:

(i)

Surviving Spouse Is Not Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the designated beneficiary is someone other than the individual’s surviving spouse, the remaining interest will be distributed over the remaining life expectancy of the designated beneficiary, with such life expectancy determined using the beneficiary’s age as of his or her birthday in the year following the year of the individual’s death, or over the period described in paragraph (d)(2)(A)(iii) below if longer.

(ii)

Surviving Spouse Is Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the individual’s sole designated beneficiary is the individual’s surviving spouse, the remaining interest will be distributed over such spouse’s life or over the period described in paragraph (d)(2)(A)(iii) below if longer. Any interest remaining after such spouse’s death will be distributed over such spouse’s remaining life expectancy determined using the spouse’s age as of his or her birthday in the year of the spouse’s death, or, if the distributions are being made over the period described in paragraph (d)(2)(A)(iii) below, over such period.

(iii)

No Designated Beneficiary. If there is no designated beneficiary, or if applicable by operation of paragraph (d)(2)(A)(i) or (d)(2)(A)(ii) above, the remaining interest will be distributed over the individual’s remaining life expectancy determined in the year of the individual’s death.

(iv)

Amount of Distribution. The amount to be distributed each year under paragraph (d)(2)(A)(i), (d)(2)(A)(ii), or (d)(2)(A)(iii), beginning with the calendar year following the calendar year of the individual’s death, is the quotient obtained by dividing the value of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account as of the end of the preceding year by the remaining life expectancy specified in such paragraph. Life expectancy is determined using the Single Lifetime Table in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-1. If distributions are being made to a surviving spouse as the sole designated beneficiary, such spouse’s remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to such spouse’s age in the year. In all other cases, remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to the beneficiary’s or individual’s age in the year specified in paragraph (d)(2)(A)(i), (d)(2)(A)(ii), or (d)(2)(A)(iii) and reduced by 1 for each subsequent year.

(B)

Death Before Required Beginning Date. If the individual dies before the required beginning date, his or her entire interest will be distributed at least as rapidly as follows:

(i)

Surviving Spouse Is Not Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the designated beneficiary is someone other than the individual’s surviving spouse, the entire interest will be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of the individual’s death, over the remaining life expectancy of the designated beneficiary, with such life expectancy determined using the age of the beneficiary as of his or her birthday in the year following the year of the individual’s death, or, if elected, in accordance with paragraph (d)(2)(B)(iii) below.

(ii)

Surviving Spouse Is Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the individual’s sole designated beneficiary is the individual’s surviving spouse, the entire interest will be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of the individual’s death (or by the end of the calendar year in which the individual would have attained age 70 ¹ / ₂ , if later), over such spouse’s life, or, if elected, in accordance with paragraph (d)(2)(B)(iii) below. If the surviving spouse dies before distributions are required to begin, the remaining interest will be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the calendar year of the spouse’s death, over the spouse’s designated beneficiary’s remaining life expectancy in determined using such beneficiary’s age as of his or her birthday in the year following the death of the spouse, or, if elected, will be distributed in accordance with paragraph (d)(2)(B)(iii) below. If the surviving spouse dies after distributions are required to begin, any remaining interest will be distributed over the spouse’s remaining life expectancy determined using the spouse’s age as of his or her birthday in the year of the spouse’s death.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 60 of 114		July 2008

(iii)

No Designated Beneficiary. If there is no designated beneficiary, or if applicable by operation of paragraph (d)(2)(B)(i) or (d)(2)(B)(ii) above, the entire interest will be distributed by the end of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the individual’s death (or of the spouse’s death in the case of the surviving spouse’s death before distributions are required to begin under paragraph (d)(2)(B)(ii) above).

(iv)

Amount of Distribution. The amount to be distributed each year under paragraph (d)(2)(B)(i) or (d)(2)(B)(ii) above is the quotient obtained by dividing the value of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account as of the end of the preceding year by the remaining life expectancy specified in such paragraph. Life expectancy is determined using the Single Lifetime Table in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, Q&A-1. If distributions are being made to a surviving spouse as the sole designated beneficiary, such spouse’s remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to such spouse’s age in the year. In all other cases, remaining life expectancy for a year is the number in the Single Life Table corresponding to the beneficiary’s age in the year specified in paragraph (d)(2)(B)(i) or (d)(2)(B)(ii) and reduced by 1 for each subsequent year.

(3)

Value of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account. The “value” of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account includes the amount of any outstanding rollover, transfer and recharacterization under Regulation §1.408-8, Q&A-7 and Q&A-8.

(4)

Spousal Treatment of Deemed IRA Contribution Account. If the sole designated beneficiary is the surviving spouse, the spouse may elect to treat the Deemed IRA Contribution Account as his or her own IRA. This election will be deemed to have been made if such surviving spouse makes a contribution to the Deemed IRA Contribution Account or fails to take required distributions as a beneficiary.

(e)

No Commingling Permitted. The assets of the Deemed IRA Contribution Account will not be commingled with other property except in a common trust fund or common investment fund.

(f)

Trustee to Furnish Information. The Trustee of a Deemed IRA Contribution Account will furnish annual calendar-year reports concerning the status of the account and such information concerning required minimum distributions as is prescribed by the IRS.

(g)

Substitution of Trustee. A non-bank Trustee or custodian will substitute another Trustee or custodian if the non-bank Trustee or custodian receives notice from the IRS that such substitution is required because it has failed to comply with the requirements of Regulation §1.408-2(e).

Definition of Compensation for Deduction Limits. For purposes of determining the deductible limits for Deemed IRA Contributions, the term “Compensation” means wages, salaries, professional fees, or other amounts derived from or received for personal services actually rendered (including, but not limited to commissions paid salesmen, compensation for services on the basis of a percentage of profits, commissions on insurance premiums, tips, and bonuses) and includes earned income, as defined in Code §401(c)(2) (reduced by the deduction the self employed individual takes for contributions made to a self-employed retirement plan). For purposes of this definition, Code §401(c) will be applied as if the term trade or business for purposes of Code §1402 included services derived from or received as earnings or profits from property (including but not limited to interest and dividends) or amounts not includible in gross income. Compensation also does not include any amount received as a pension or annuity or as deferred compensation. The term “Compensation” will include any amount includible in the individual’s gross income under Code §71 with respect to a divorce or separation instrument described in Code §71(b)(2)(A).

3.18

Actual Deferral Percentage Test and Correction. If a 401(k) Plan is subject to the Actual Deferral Percentage Test (ADP Test) for a Plan Year, then the following rules will apply:

(a)

The ADP Test. The ADP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested and the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests:

(1)

1.25 Test. The ADP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested will not exceed the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or

(2)

Multiplied By 2 or 2% Test. The ADP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested will not exceed the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year multiplied by 2.0, provided, that the ADP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested does not exceed the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year by more than 2 percentage points.

(b)

Testing Methods and Restriction. The Sponsoring Employer may elect either the Prior Year Testing Method or Current Year Testing Method in the Adoption Agreement. However, once the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Current Year Testing Method, the Sponsoring Employer can elect the Prior Year Testing Method for a Plan Year only if the Plan has used the Current Year Testing Method for each of the preceding five (5) Plan Years (or if lesser, the number of Plan Years that the Plan has been in existence) or if, as a result of a merger or acquisition described in Code §410(b)(6)(C)(i), the Employer maintains both a 401(k) plan using the Prior Year Testing Method and a 401(k) plan using Current Year Testing Method and the change is made within the transition period described in Code §410(b)(6)(C)(ii).

(c)

Prior Year Testing Method for the First Plan Year. If the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Prior Year Testing Method for the first Plan Year that the Plan permits any Participant to make Elective Deferrals (and this is not a successor plan), then the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year will be the greater of (1) three percent (3%), or (2) the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the first Plan Year.

(d)

HCEs as Sole Participants in Plan Year Being Tested. If the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Prior Year Testing Method and if there are no Participants who were Non-Highly Compensated Employees in the prior Plan Year, then the Plan will be deemed to satisfy the ADP Test for the Plan Year that is being tested. Similarly, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Current Year Testing Method and if there are no Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees in the current Plan Year, then the Plan will be deemed to satisfy the ADP Test for the Plan Year that is being tested. The provisions of this paragraph may be utilized with the permissive disaggregation rule of Section 3.18(e)(2).

(e)

Special Rule for Early Participation. If this 401(k) Plan provides that Otherwise Excludable Participants are eligible to participate and if the Plan applies Code §410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the 401(k) Plan meets the requirements of Code §410(b)(1), then in determining whether the 401(k) Plan satisfies the ADP Test, the Sponsoring Employer may, in the Sponsoring Employer’s discretion (but is not required to), either:

(1)

Early Participation Rule. Pursuant to Code §401(k)(3)(F), perform the ADP Test for the Plan (determined without regard to disaggregation under Regulation §1.410(b)-7(c)(3)), by using the ADP for all Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year and the ADP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year, disregarding all Otherwise Excludable Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees; or

(2)

Permissive Disaggregation Rule. Pursuant to Regulation §1.401(k)-1(b)(4), disaggregate the Plan into separate plans and perform the ADP Test separately for all Participants who are Otherwise Excludable Participants and for all Participants who are not Otherwise Excludable Participants.

(f)

HCEs and NHCEs for a Particular Plan Year. A Participant is a Highly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if that Participant meets the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year. Similarly, a Participant is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if the Participant does not meet the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 62 of 114		July 2008

(g)

ADP for an HCE in Multiple CODAs of the Sponsoring Employer . The ADP for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Elective Deferrals (and Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, if treated as Elective Deferrals for purposes of the ADP Test) allocated to such Participant’s accounts under two or more cash or deferral arrangements (CODAs) described in Code §401(k), that are maintained by the Sponsoring Employer, will be determined as if such Elective Deferrals (and, if applicable, such Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both) were made under a single arrangement. If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or more CODAs of the Sponsoring Employer that have different plan years, all Elective Deferrals made during the Plan Year under all such arrangements will be aggregated. For Plan Years beginning prior to 2006 (or the year of such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), all such CODAs ending with or within the same calendar year will be treated as a single arrangement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain plans will be treated as separate if mandatorily disaggregated under the §401(k) Regulations.

(h)

Plan Aggregation and Coverage Change Rules. If this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code §401(k), §401(a)(4), or §410(b) only by being aggregated with one or more other plans of the Sponsoring Employer, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of Code §401(k), §401(a)(4), or §410(b) only by being aggregated with this Plan, then this Section will be applied by determining the ADP of the Employees as if all such plans (including this Plan) were a single plan. If the Prior Year Testing Method is being used and if more than 10% of the Employer’s NHCEs are involved in a plan coverage change as defined in Regulation §1.401(k)-2(c)(4), then any adjustments to the Non-Highly Compensated Employees’ ADP for the prior Plan Year will be made in accordance with such Regulations. Plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy Code §401(k) only if they have the same Plan Year and use the same ADP testing method (the Prior Year Testing Method or the Current Year Testing Method).

(i)

Contributions Must Be Made Within 12 Months. Elective Deferrals, Qualified Non-Elective Contributions, and Qualified Matching Contributions must be made, for purposes of determining the ADP Test, by the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which the contributions relate.

(j)

Correction Methods for Failed ADP Test. If a 401(k) Plan is subject to the Actual Deferral Percentage Test (ADP Test) for a Plan Year and the Plan fails to satisfy the ADP Test for such Plan Year, then the Sponsoring Employer will use one or more of the following correction methods to satisfy the ADP Test for such Plan Year (and the Sponsoring Employer has the discretion to determine which one or more of the correct methods may be used to satisfy the ADP Test):

(1)

Distribution of Excess Contributions Plus Income or Loss. Excess Contributions of Highly Compensated Employee(s), plus any income and minus any loss allocable to such Excess Contributions, may be distributed pursuant to Section 5.19.

(2)

Recharacterization as Voluntary Employee Contributions. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit Voluntary Employee Contributions and if elected by a Participant, then, subject to the ACP Test and to the extent that the recharacterization does not create Excess Aggregation Contributions, Elective Deferrals allocated to a Highly Compensated Employee as Excess Contributions may be recharacterized as Voluntary Employee Contributions. Such Participant will treat Excess Contributions allocated to such Participant as an amount distributed to the Participant and then contributed by the Participant to the Plan as Voluntary Employee Contributions. Recharacterized amounts will remain nonforfeitable. Amounts may not be recharacterized by a HCE to the extent that such amount in combination with other Voluntary Employee Contributions made by that Employee would exceed any stated limit under the Plan on Voluntary Employee Contributions. Recharacterization must occur no later than 2 ¹ / ₂ months after the last day of the Plan Year in which such Excess Contributions arose and is deemed to occur no earlier than the date that the last Highly Compensated Employee is informed in writing of the amount recharacterized and the consequences thereof.

(3)

Recharacterization as Catch-Up Contributions. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit Catch-Up Contributions, then (i) to the extent that a catch-up eligible Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee is to receive a distribution of Excess Contributions, and (ii) to the extent that such catch-up eligible Participant has not exceeded the Participant’s Catch-Up Contribution Limit, the Excess Contributions of such Participant may be recharacterized as Catch-Up Contributions (to the extent that the recharacterized Catch-Up Contributions do not cause the Catch-Up Contribution Limit to be exceeded for the taxable year of the Participant).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 63 of 114		July 2008

(4)

QMACs and QNECs. The Sponsoring Employer may make Qualified Matching Contributions pursuant to Section 3.7 and/or Qualified Non-Elective Contributions pursuant to Section 3.8 to satisfy the ADP Test., subject to the following limitations:

(A)

Limitation on Disproportionate QNECs. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions cannot be taken into account in the ADP Test of a Plan Year for a NHCE to the extent the QNECs exceed the product of (i) that NHCE’s Code §414(s) Compensation, multiplied by (ii) the greater of [a] 5% (or 10% of a NHCE’s Code §414(s) Compensation with respect to an Employer’s obligation to make Prevailing Wage Contributions to the Plan), or [b] two times the Plan’s Representative Contribution Rate. Any QNEC used in an ACP Test under Regulation §1.401(m)-2(a)(6) (including the determination of the Representative Contribution Rate for purposes of Regulation §1.401(m)— 2(a)(6)(v)(B)), cannot be used for purposes of the ADP Test (including the determination of the Representative Contribution Rate for purposes of the ADP Test).

(B)

Limitation on QMACs. Qualified Matching Contributions are permitted to be used in the ADP Test only to the extent that such Qualified Matching Contributions are Matching Contributions that are not precluded from being taken into account under the ACP Test for the Plan Year under the rules of Regulation §1.401(m)-2(a)(5)(ii).

(C)

Prohibition Against Double-Counting. Qualified Non-Elective Contributions and Qualified Matching Contributions cannot be taken into account in the ADP Test to the extent such contributions are taken into account for purposes of satisfying any other ADP Test, any ACP Test, or the requirements of Regulation §1.401(k)-3, §1.401(m)-3 or §1.401(k)-4. Matching Contributions that are made pursuant to Regulation §1.401(k)-3(c) cannot be taken into account under the ADP Test. Furthermore, if this Plan switches from the Current Year Testing Method to the Prior Year Testing Method pursuant to Regulation §1.401(k)-2(c), then Qualified Non-Elective Contributions that are taken into account under the Current Year Testing Method for a Plan Year may not be taken into account under the Prior Year Testing Method for the next Plan Year.

3.19

Actual Contribution Percentage Test and Correction. If a 401(m) Plan is subject to the Actual Contribution Percentage Test (ACP Test) for a Plan Year, then the following rules will apply:

(a)

The ACP Test. The ACP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested and the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests:

(1)

1.25 Test. The ACP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested will not exceed the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or

(2)

Multiplied By 2 or 2% Test. The ACP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested will not exceed the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year multiplied by 2.0, provided, that the ACP for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year that is being tested does not exceed the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year by more than 2 percentage points.

(b)

Testing Methods and Restriction. The Sponsoring Employer may elect either the Prior Year Testing Method or Current Year Testing Method in the Adoption Agreement. However, once the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Current Year Testing Method, the Sponsoring Employer can elect the Prior Year Testing Method for a Plan Year only if the Plan has used the Current Year Testing Method for each of the preceding five (5) Plan Years (or if lesser, the number of Plan Years that the Plan has been in existence) or if, as a result of a merger or acquisition described in Code §410(b)(6)(C)(i), the Employer maintains both a 401(m) plan using the Prior Year Testing Method and a 401(m) plan using Current Year Testing Method and the change is made within the transition period described in Code §410(b)(6)(C)(ii).

(c)

Prior Year Testing Method for the First Plan Year. If the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Prior Year Testing Method for the first Plan Year that the Plan permits any Participant to make Employee Contributions, provides for Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, or both (and this is not a successor plan), then the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year will be the greater of (1) three percent (3%), or (2) the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the first Plan Year.

(d)

HCEs as Sole Participants in Plan Year Being Tested. If the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Prior Year Testing Method and if there are no Participants who were Non-Highly Compensated Employees in the prior Plan Year, then the Plan will be deemed to satisfy the ACP Test for the Plan Year that is being tested. Similarly, if the Sponsoring Employer has elected the Current Year Testing Method and if there are no Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees in the current Plan Year, then the Plan will be deemed to satisfy the ACP Test for the Plan Year that is being tested. The provisions of this paragraph may be utilized with the permissive disaggregation rule of Section 3.19(e)(2).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 64 of 114		July 2008

(e)

Special Rule for Early Participation. If this 401(m) Plan provides that Otherwise Excludable Participants are eligible to participate and if the Plan applies Code §410(b)(4)(B) in determining whether the 401(m) Plan meets the requirements of Code §410(b)(1), then in determining whether the 401(m) Plan satisfies the ACP Test, the Sponsoring Employer may, in the Sponsoring Employer’s discretion (but is not required to), either:

(1)

Early Participation Rule. Pursuant to Code §401(m)(5)(C), perform the ACP Test for the Plan (determined without regard to disaggregation under Regulation §1.410(b)-7(c)(3)), by using the ACP for all Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year and the ACP for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Applicable Plan Year, disregarding all Otherwise Excludable Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees; or

(2)

Permissive Disaggregation Rule. Pursuant to Regulation §1.401(m)-1(b)(4), disaggregate the Plan into separate plans and perform the ACP Test separately for all Participants who are Otherwise Excludable Participants and for all Participants who are not Otherwise Excludable Participants.

(f)

(g)

Plan Aggregation and Coverage Change Rules. If this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code §401(m), §401(a)(4), or §410(b) only by being aggregated with one or more other plans of the Sponsoring Employer, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of Code §401(m), §401(a)(4), or §410(b) only by being aggregated with this Plan, then this Section will be applied by determining the ACP of the Employees as if all such plans (including this Plan) were a single plan. If the Plan uses the Prior Year Testing Method and if more than 10% of the Employer’s NHCEs are involved in a plan coverage change as defined in Regulation §1.401(m)-2(c)(4), then any adjustments to the NHCEs’ ACP for the prior Plan Year will be made in accordance with such Regulations. Plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy Code §401(m) only if they have the same Plan Year and use the same ACP testing method (the Prior Year Testing Method or the Current Year Testing Method).

(h)

Disproportionate Matching Contributions With Respect to Elective Deferrals Excluded From ACP Test. A Matching Contribution with respect to an Elective Deferral for a Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee is not taken into account under the ACP Test for a Plan Year to the extent that the Matching Contribution exceeds the greatest of (1) 5% of such Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation; (2) 100% of the Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year; and (3) the product of 2 times the Plan’s Representative Matching Rate and the Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year.

(i)

Disproportionate Matching Contributions With Respect to Employee Contributions Excluded From ACP Test. If the Plan provides a Match Contribution with respect to the sum of a Participant’s Employee Contributions and Elective Deferrals, then the sum of the Participant’s Employee Contributions and Elective Deferrals is substituted for the amount of the Participant’s Elective Deferrals in paragraph (h). Similarly, if the Plan provides a Match Contribution with respect to a Participant’s Employee Contributions (but not Elective Deferrals), then the Participant’s Employee Contributions are substituted for the amount of the Participant’s Elective Deferrals in paragraph (h).

(j)

Matching Contributions Taken Into Account Under Safe Harbor Provisions. If this Plan satisfies the ACP safe harbor requirements of Code §401(m)(11) for a Plan Year but nonetheless must satisfy the ACP Test because the Plan provides for Employee Contributions for such Plan Year, then the Sponsoring Employer is permitted (but is not required) to apply the ACP Test by disregarding all Matching Contributions with respect to all Participants. In addition, if this Plan satisfies the ADP safe harbor requirements of Regulation §1.401(k)–3 for a Plan Year using ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions but does not satisfy the ACP safe harbor requirements of Code §401(m)(11) for such Plan Year, then the Sponsoring Employer is permitted (but is not required) to apply the ACP Test by excluding Matching Contributions with respect to all Participants that do not exceed 4% of each Participant’s Code §414(s) Compensation. If the Plan disregards any Matching Contributions pursuant to this paragraph, then this disregard must be applied to all Participants.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 65 of 114		July 2008

(k)

Multiple Use Test. Effective for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2001, the multiple use test is repealed and does not apply to this Plan, pursuant to EGTRRA §666.

(l)

Correction Methods for Failed ACP Test. If a 401(m) Plan is subject to the Actual Contribution Percentage Test (ACP Test) for a Plan Year and the Plan fails to satisfy the ACP Test for such Plan Year, then the Sponsoring Employer will use one or more of the following correction methods to satisfy the ACP Test for such Plan Year (and the Sponsoring Employer has the discretion to determine which one or more of the correct methods may be used to satisfy the ACP Test):

(1)

Distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions Plus Income or Loss. Excess Aggregate Contributions of Highly Compensated Employee(s), plus any income and minus any loss allocable to such Excess Aggregate Contributions, may be forfeited (if forfeitable) and may be distributed (if non-forfeitable), pursuant to Section 5.20.

(2)

QNECs and QMACs. The Sponsoring Employer may make Qualified Matching Contributions pursuant to Section 3.7 and/or Qualified Non-Elective Contributions pursuant to Section 3.8 to satisfy the ACP Test, subject to the following limitations: (A) Qualified Non-Elective Contributions are permitted to be used in the ACP Test only to the extent that such Qualified Non-Elective Contributions satisfy the limitations of Section 1.44(e); and (B) Qualified Matching Contributions are permitted to be used in the ACP Test only to the extent that such Qualified Matching Contributions satisfy the limitations of Sections 1.44(c), 1.44(f), 1.44(g), and either 3.19(h) or 3.19(i).

3.20

ADP Safe Harbor Contributions. A 401(k) Plan that satisfies the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution requirements of Code §401(k)(12) for a Plan Year is a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan if it satisfies the following requirements:

(a)

ADP Safe Harbor Contribution. The Sponsoring Employer makes an ADP Safe Harbor Contribution on behalf of each Safe Harbor Participant, equal to either an ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution or an ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution, that satisfies the following requirements:

(1)

ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution. An ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution equal to at least three percent (3%) of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation for the Plan Year; or

(2)

ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution. An ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution in an amount determined under either a basic matching formula or an enhanced matching formula, that satisfies the following requirements:

(A)

Basic Matching Formula. An ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution in an amount equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the amount of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals that do not exceed 3% of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation; plus (ii) 50% of the amount of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals that exceed 3% of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation but that do not exceed 5% of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation.

(B)

Enhanced Matching Formula. An ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution formula that, at any rate of Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals, provides an aggregate amount of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that is at least equal to the aggregate amount of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that would have been provided under the basic matching formula of paragraph (a)(2)(A). Furthermore, the ratio of a Safe Harbor Participant’s ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions under the enhanced matching formula for a Plan Year to the Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals may not increase as the amount of a Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals increases.

(C)

Limitation on HCE Matching Contributions. The ratio of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions to Elective Deferrals of a Safe Harbor Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee must not exceed the ratio of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions to Elective Deferrals of any Safe Harbor Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee with Elective Deferrals at the same percentage of Compensation as any Highly Compensated Employee.

(D)

ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions on Employee Contributions. ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions may be made on both Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions if the ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions are made with respect to the sum of Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions on the same terms as ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions that are made with respect to Elective Deferrals alone. Alternatively, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions may be made on both Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions if the ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions on Elective Deferrals are not affected by the amount of Employee Contributions.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 66 of 114		July 2008

(E)

Periodic Matching Contributions. If the Employer elects to contribute and allocate separately ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for an Allocation Period of less than the Plan Year (e.g., each payroll period or with respect to all payroll periods ending with or within each month or quarter of a Plan Year), then such ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions with respect to any Elective Deferrals made during a Plan Year quarter will be contributed to the Plan by the last day of the immediately following Plan Year quarter.

(F)

Catch-Up Contributions. With respect to ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions will be treated as any other Elective Deferrals and will be matched according to the ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution formula as if the Catch-Up Contributions were any other Elective Deferrals.

(G)

Permissible Restrictions on Elective Deferrals by NHCEs. Elective Deferrals by Safe Harbor Participants who are NHCEs cannot be restricted, except pursuant to the following rules:

(i)

Restrictions on Election Periods. The Plan may limit the frequency and duration of periods in which Safe Harbor Participants may make or change cash or deferred elections under the Plan. However, a Safe Harbor Participant must have a reasonable opportunity (including a reasonable period after receipt of the Safe Harbor Notice) to make or change a cash or deferred election for the Plan Year. A 30-day period is deemed to be a reasonable period to make or change a cash or deferred election.

(ii)

Restrictions on Amount of Elective Deferrals. The Plan may limit the amount of Elective Deferrals that may be made by a Safe Harbor Participant, provided that each Safe Harbor Participant who is a NHCE is permitted (unless restricted under paragraph (a)(2)(G)(iv)) to make Elective Deferrals in an amount that is at least sufficient to receive the maximum amount of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions available under the Plan for the Plan Year, and the Safe Harbor Participant who is a NHCE is permitted to elect any lesser amount of Elective Deferrals. However, the Plan may limit cash or deferred elections to whole percentages of Compensation or whole dollar amounts.

(iii)

Restrictions on Types of Compensation that May Be Deferred. The Plan may limit the types of Compensation that may be deferred by a Safe Harbor Participant, provided that each Safe Harbor Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee is permitted to make Elective Deferrals under a definition of Compensation that is a reasonable definition of compensation within the meaning of Regulation §1.414(s)-1(d)(2). Therefore, the definition of Compensation from which Elective Deferrals may be made is not required to satisfy the nondiscrimination requirement of Regulation §1.414(s)-1(d)(3).

(iv)

Restrictions Due to Limitations Under the Code. The Plan may limit the amount of Elective Deferrals made by an a Safe Harbor Participant under the Plan either [a] because of the limitations of Code §402(g) or §415; or [b] because, on account of a financial hardship distribution, the Safe Harbor Participant’s ability to make Elective Deferrals has been suspended for 6 months in accordance with Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iv)(E).

(b)

Safe Harbor Notice. The Sponsoring Employer must give a Safe Harbor Notice to each Safe Harbor Participant, which must satisfy the following content and timing requirements:

(1)

Safe Harbor Notice Must Be Written. The Safe Harbor Notice must be in writing or in such other form of communication as permitted by Regulation §1.401(a)-21.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 67 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Content Requirements. The content requirement for a Safe Harbor Notice is satisfied if the Safe Harbor Notice is sufficiently accurate and comprehensive to inform the Safe Harbor Participant of the Safe Harbor Participant’s rights and obligations under the plan; and the Safe Harbor Notice is written in a manner calculated to be understood by the average Safe Harbor Participant in the Plan. A Safe Harbor Notice will satisfy this content requirement if the Safe Harbor Notice accurately describes (A) the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution formula used by the Plan (including a description of the levels of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, if any, available under the Plan); (B) any other contributions under the Plan or Matching Contributions to another plan on account of Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions under this plan (including the potential for discretionary Matching Contributions) and the conditions under which such contributions are made; (C) the plan to which the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution will be made (if different than this Plan); (D) the type and amount of Compensation that may be deferred under the Plan; (E) how to make cash or deferred elections, including any administrative requirements that apply to such elections; (F) the periods available under the plan for making cash or deferred elections; (G) the distribution and Vesting provisions applicable to contributions under the Plan; and (H) information that makes it easy to obtain additional information about the Plan (including an additional copy of the summary plan description) such as telephone numbers, addresses and, if applicable, electronic addresses, of individuals or offices from whom Safe Harbor Participants can obtain such Plan information. The Safe Harbor Notice may cross-reference relevant portions of a summary plan description that provides the same information that would be provided (or is concurrently provided) to Safe Harbor Participants, with respect to information described in: (i) paragraph (b)(2)(B) (relating to any other contributions under the Plan); (ii) paragraph (b)(2)(C) (relating to the plan to which safe harbor contributions will be made); and/or (iii) paragraph (b)(2)(D) (relating to the type and amount of Compensation that may be deferred under the Plan).

(3)

Timing Requirement. The timing requirement for a Safe Harbor Notice is satisfied if the Safe Harbor Notice is provided within a reasonable period before the beginning of the Plan Year (or, in the Plan Year in which an Employee will become a Safe Harbor Participant, within a reasonable period before the Employee becomes a Safe Harbor Participant). The determination of whether a Safe Harbor Notice satisfies the timing requirement is based on all of the relevant facts and circumstances. However, this timing requirement is deemed to be satisfied if at least 30 days, but not more than 90 days, or any other reasonable period, before the beginning of a Plan Year, the Safe Harbor Notice is given to each Safe Harbor Participant for the Plan Year. In the case of an Employee who does not receive the Safe Harbor Notice within the period described in the previous sentence because the Employee becomes a Safe Harbor Participant after the 90th day before the beginning of the Plan Year, the timing requirement is deemed to be satisfied if the Safe Harbor Notice is provided no more than 90 days before the Employee becomes a Safe Harbor Participant (and no later than the date that the Employee becomes a Safe Harbor Participant). The preceding sentence would apply in the case of any Employee who becomes a Safe Harbor Participant for the first Plan Year under a newly established plan that provides for Elective Deferrals, or would apply in the case of the first Plan Year in which an Employee becomes a Safe Harbor Participant under an existing plan that provides for Elective Deferrals.

(c)

Plan Year Requirement. Except as provided in this paragraph or paragraph (d), the Sponsoring Employer must adopt ADP Safe Harbor Contribution provisions before the first day of the Plan Year and remain in effect for an entire 12-month Plan Year. In addition, except as provided in paragraph (e), if the Plan includes ADP Safe Harbor Contribution provisions, then the Plan cannot be amended to change such provisions for that Plan Year. Moreover, if ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions will be made to another plan for a Plan Year, provisions under that other plan that specify that the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions will be made and provide that the contributions will be ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions must also be adopted before the first day of that Plan Year. A 401(k) Plan will be considered to be a Safe Harbor 401(k) Plan for a Plan Year of less than 12 months, pursuant to the following rules:

(1)

Initial Plan Year. If this Plan is a newly established plan (other than a successor plan within the meaning of Regulation §1.401(k)-2(c)(2)(iii)), then the Plan Year may be less than 12 months, provided that the Plan Year is at least 3 months long (or, in the case of a newly established Employer that establishes the Plan as soon as administratively feasible after the employer comes into existence, a shorter period). Similarly, a cash or deferred arrangement may be added to an existing profit sharing, stock bonus, or pre-ERISA money purchase pension plan for the first time during that Plan Year, provided that (A) the Plan is not a successor plan; and (B) the cash or deferred arrangement is made effective no later than 3 months prior to the end of the Plan Year.

(2)

Change of Plan Year. If the Plan has a short Plan Year as a result of changing its Plan Year, then the Plan Year may be less than 12 months, provided that (A) the Plan satisfied the requirements of this Section for the immediately preceding Plan Year; and (B) the Plan satisfies the requirements of this Section (determined without regard to paragraph (e)) for the immediately following Plan Year (or for the immediately following 12 months if the immediately following Plan Year is less than 12 months).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 68 of 114		July 2008

(3)

Final Plan Year. If the Plan terminates during a Plan Year, then the final Plan Year may be less than 12 months, provided that the Plan satisfies the requirement of this Section through the date of termination and either (A) the Plan satisfies the requirements of paragraph (e), treating the termination of the Plan as a reduction or suspension of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, other than the requirement that Safe Harbor Participants have a reasonable opportunity to change their cash or deferred elections and, if applicable, Employee Contribution elections; or (B) the Plan termination is in connection with a transaction described in Code §410(b)(6)(C) or the employer incurs a substantial business hardship comparable to a substantial business hardship described in Code §412(d).

(d)

Contingent ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions. Notwithstanding paragraph (c), if the Plan that provides for the use of the Current Year Testing Method, then the Plan may be amended after the first day of the Plan Year and no later than 30 days before the last day of the Plan Year to adopt ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions for the Plan Year, effective as of the first day of the Plan Year, but only if the Plan provides the contingent Safe Harbor Notice and follow-up Safe Harbor Notice:

(1)

Contingent Safe Harbor Notice Provided. The requirement to provide the contingent Safe Harbor Notice is satisfied, if the Plan provides a Safe Harbor Notice that would satisfy the requirements of paragraph (b), except that, in lieu of setting forth the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions used under the Plan as set forth in paragraph (b)(2)(A), the Safe Harbor Notice specifies that the Plan may be amended during the Plan Year to include the ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution and that, if the Plan is amended, a follow-up Safe Harbor Notice will be provided.

(2)

Follow-up Safe Harbor Notice Requirement. The requirement to provide the follow-up Safe Harbor Notice is satisfied if, no later than 30 days before the last day of the Plan Year, each Safe Harbor Participant is given a Safe Harbor Notice that states that the ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution will be made for the Plan Year. The Safe Harbor Notice must be in writing or in such other form of communication as permitted by Regulation §1.401(a)-21 and is permitted to be combined with a contingent Safe Harbor Notice for the next Plan Year.

(e)

Permissible Reduction or Suspension of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. If the Plan provides for ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for a Plan Year, then the Plan may be amended during the Plan Year to reduce or suspend ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions on future Elective Deferrals (and, if applicable, Employee Contributions), provided that:

(1)

Supplemental Notice. All Safe Harbor Participants are provided a supplemental notice in writing or in such other form of communication as permitted by Regulation §1.401(a)-21, that explains (A) the consequences of the amendment which reduces or suspends ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions on future Elective Deferrals and, if applicable, Employee Contributions; (B) the procedures for changing their cash or deferred election and, if applicable, their Employee Contribution elections; and (C) the effective date of the amendment.

(2)

Effective Date. The reduction or suspension of ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is effective no earlier than the later of (A) 30 days after Safe Harbor Participants are provided the supplemental notice, or (B) the date that the amendment is adopted.

(3)

Opportunity to Change Deferral Elections. Safe Harbor Participants are given a reasonable opportunity (including a reasonable period after receipt of the supplemental notice) prior to the reduction or suspension of safe harbor matching contributions to change their cash or deferred elections and, if applicable, their Employee Contribution elections.

(4)

Satisfaction of ADP Test. The Plan is amended to provide that the ADP Test will be satisfied for the entire Plan Year in which the reduction or suspension occurs using the Current Year Testing Method.

(5)

Satisfaction through Effective Date. The Plan satisfies the requirements of this Section (other than this paragraph) with respect to Elective Deferrals and/or Employee Contributions through the effective date of the amendment.

(f)

Additional Rules. The following additional rules apply to ADP Safe Harbor Contributions:

(1)

ADP Safe Harbor Contributions Taken into Account. An ADP Safe Harbor Contribution is taken into account for purposes of this Section for a Plan Year if the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution would be taken into account for such Plan Year under the rules of Regulation §1.401(k)-2(a) or §1.401(m)-2(a). Thus, an ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution must be made within 12 months after the end of the Plan Year. Similarly, an Elective Deferral that would be taken into account for a Plan Year under Regulation §1.401(k)-2(a)(4)(i)(B)(2) must be taken into account for such Plan Year for purposes of this Section, even if the Compensation would have been received after the close of the Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 69 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Use of ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions for Other Non-Discrimination Tests. ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions may also be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Plan satisfies Code §401(a)(4). Thus, ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions are not subject to the limitations on Qualified Non-Elective Contributions under Regulation §1.401(k)–2(a)(6)(ii), but are subject to the rules generally applicable to Non-Elective Contributions under Code §401(a)(4) and Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–1(b)(2)(ii). However, pursuant to Code §401(k)(12)(E)(ii), ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions and ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions may not be taken into account under the Plan (or any other plan) for purposes of Code §401(1) (including the imputation of permitted disparity under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)–7).

(3)

Early Participation Rule. The Plan is permitted to apply the rules of Code §410(b)(4)(B) to treat the Plan as two separate plans for purposes of Code §410(b) and apply the safe harbor requirements to one plan and apply the requirements of Regulation §1.401(k)–2 to the other plan.

(4)

Satisfying ADP Safe Harbor Contribution Requirements under Another Plan. ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions may be made to this Plan or to another defined contribution plan that satisfies Code §401(a) or §403(a). If ADP Safe Harbor Contributions are made to another defined contribution plan, then this Plan must specify the plan to which the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions are being made and the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution requirements of paragraph (a) must be satisfied in the other defined contribution plan in the same manner as if the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions were made to this Plan. The plan to which the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions are being made must have the same Plan Year as this Plan, and each Safe Harbor Participant under this Plan must be eligible under the same conditions under the other defined contribution plan. The plan to which the ADP Safe Harbor Contributions are being made need not be a plan that can be aggregated with this Plan.

(5)

Contributions Used Only Once. ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions cannot be used to satisfy the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution requirements for more than one plan.

3.21

ACP Safe Harbor Contributions. Matching Contributions (including, if applicable, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) that satisfy the ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution requirements of Code §401(m)(11) for a Plan Year are ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions in a Safe Harbor 401(m) Plan if such contributions (including, if applicable, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) satisfy the following requirements:

(a)

Satisfaction of ADP Safe Harbor Contribution Requirements. The Plan must satisfy the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution requirements of Section 3.20 with either ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions (including contingent ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions of Section 3.20(d)) or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. Pursuant to Code §401(k)(12)(E)(ii), the ADP Safe Harbor Contribution requirements must be satisfied without regard to Code §401(1).

(b)

Limitation on Matching Contributions. The Plan that provides for ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions must satisfy the following limitations:

(1)

Matching Contribution Rate Must Not Increase. The ratio of Matching Contributions on behalf of a Safe Harbor Participant for a Plan Year to the Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions, cannot not increase as the amount of a Safe Harbor Participant’s Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions increases;

(2)

Matching Contribution Cannot Be Made for Deferrals in Excess of 6% of Compensation. Matching Contributions cannot be made with respect to Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions that exceed six percent (6%) of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation;

(3)

Discretionary Matching Contribution Cannot Exceed 4% of Compensation. If Matching Contributions are discretionary, then the Matching Contributions cannot exceed 4% of the Safe Harbor Participant’s Compensation; and


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 70 of 114		July 2008

(4)

Limitation on Rate of Match. The ratio of Matching Contributions on behalf of a Safe Harbor Participant who is a HCE to his or her Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions (or to the sum thereof) for that Plan Year is no greater than the ratio of Matching Contributions to Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions (or the sum of Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions) that would apply with respect to any Safe Harbor Participant who is a NHCE for whom the Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions (or the sum of Elective Deferrals and Employee Contributions) are the same percentage of Compensation. The determination of the rate of Matching Contributions will be made pursuant to the rules of Regulation §1.401(m)-3(d)(4) and §1.401(m)-3(d)(5).

(5)

Catch-Up Contributions. With respect to ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, Catch-Up Contributions will be treated as any other Elective Deferrals and will be matched according to the ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution formula as if the Catch-Up Contributions were Elective Deferrals.

(6)

Permissible Restrictions on Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions by NHCEs. Elective Deferrals and/or Employee Contributions by Safe Harbor Participants who are NHCEs cannot be restricted, except pursuant to the rules of Section 3.20(a)(2)(G) (which rules will apply to Elective Deferrals and/or Employee Contributions) and Regulation §1.401(m)-3(d)(6).

(c)

Safe Harbor Notice. The Sponsoring Employer must give a Safe Harbor Notice to each Safe Harbor Participant that satisfies the content and timing requirements of Section 3.20(b) and Reg. §1.401(k)-3(d).

(d)

Plan Year Requirement. The Sponsoring Employer must adopt ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions provisions before the first day of the Plan Year and remain in effect for an entire 12-month Plan Year, subject to the rules and exceptions of Section 3.20(c) (which will apply to ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) and Regulation §1.401(m)-3(f). For purposes of an initial Plan Year of a Plan, the amendment providing for ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions must be made effective at the same time as the adoption of a cash or deferred arrangement that satisfies the requirements of Regulation §1.401(k)-3.

(e)

Permissible Reduction or Suspension of ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions. If the Plan provides for ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions for a Plan Year, then the Plan may be amended during the Plan Year to reduce or suspend ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions on future Elective Deferrals (and, if applicable, Employee Contributions), subject to the rules of Section 3.20(e) (which rules will apply to ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions) and Regulation §1.401(m)-3(h).

(f)

Additional Rules. The following additional rules apply to ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions:

(1)

ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions Taken into Account. An ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution is taken into account for purposes of this Section for a Plan Year, pursuant to the same rules of Section 3.20(f)(1) and Regulation §1.401(k)-3(h)(1).

(2)

Early Participation Rule. The Plan is permitted to apply the rules of Code §410(b)(4)(B) to treat the 401(m) Plan as two separate plans for purposes of Code §410(b) and apply the safe harbor requirements to one plan and apply the requirements of Regulation §1.401(m)-2 to the other plan.

(3)

Satisfying ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Requirements Under Another Plan. ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions may be made to this Plan or to another defined contribution plan that satisfies Code §401(a) or §403(a), pursuant to the same rules of Section 3.20(f)(4) and Regulation §1.401(k)-3(h)(4). Consequently, each Safe Harbor Participant who is a NHCE under the plan providing for ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions must be eligible under the same conditions under the other defined contribution plan and the plan to which the contributions are made must have the same Plan Year as the plan providing the ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions.

(4)

ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions Used Only Once. ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions cannot be used to satisfy the ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution requirements for more than one plan.

(5)

Plan Must Satisfy ACP Test With Respect to Employee Contributions. If this Plan permits Employee Contributions, then in addition to satisfying the requirements of this Section, the Plan must also satisfy the ACP Test. However, the ACP Test is permitted to be performed disregarding some or all ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions when this Section is satisfied with respect to the ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, pursuant to Section 3.19(j) and Regulation §1.401(m)-2(a)(5)(iv).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 71 of 114		July 2008

3.22

General Non-Discrimination Test Requirements. For Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, if the Sponsoring Employer applies the general test for non-discrimination as set forth in Code §401(a)(4) based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates to demonstrate that a Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution that is made to this Plan is non-discriminatory, or if a Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution that is made to this Plan is aggregated with one or more other plans of the Sponsoring Employer so that the Sponsoring Employer can apply the general test for non-discrimination set forth in Code §401(a)(4) based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates for the defined contribution plan(s) (including this Plan) to demonstrate that the plans (including this Plan) are non-discriminatory, then the following rules will apply:

(a)

Defined Contribution Rule. If this Plan (or any defined contribution plan(s) which are aggregated with this Plan) is not aggregated with any defined benefit plan of the Sponsoring Employer for purposes of applying the general test for non-discrimination based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates for this Plan (or any defined contribution plan(s) which are aggregated with this Plan), then any NHCE who is a Participant in this Plan (or, if any defined contribution plan(s) are aggregated with this Plan, any NHCE who is a Participant in this Plan or the other defined contribution plan(s)) and who receives an allocation of Non-Elective Contributions and/or QNECs must receive an allocation of Non-Elective Contributions and/or QNECs that is at least equal to the Minimum Allocation Gateway for the Plan Year, subject to the following provisions:

(1)

Circumstances When Minimum Allocation Gateway Not Required. The Minimum Allocation Gateway requirement need not be satisfied if this Plan (or the group of any defined contribution plan(s) which are aggregated with this Plan) has Broadly Available Allocation Rates or a Gradually Increasing Age or Service Schedule.

(2)

Treatment of Otherwise Excludable Participants. For purposes of this paragraph (a), Otherwise Excludable Participants will not be considered.

(b)

Combination of Defined Benefit/Defined Contribution Rule. If this Plan (or any defined contribution plan(s) which are aggregated with this Plan) is aggregated with any defined benefit plan for purposes of applying the general test for non-discrimination based upon Equivalent Accrual Rates for this Plan (or any defined contribution plan(s) which are aggregated with this Plan), then the Aggregate Normal Allocation Rate of each Non-Highly Compensated Employee in any plan that is part of the aggregated defined benefit plan(s) and defined contribution plan(s) (including this Plan) must be at least equal to the Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway for the Plan Year, subject to the following provisions:

(1)

Circumstances When Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway Not Required. The Minimum Aggregate Allocation Gateway requirement need not be satisfied if the aggregated combination of defined benefit plan(s) and defined contribution plan(s) (including this Plan) either is Primarily Defined Benefit in Character or consists of Broadly Available Separate Plans.

(2)

Treatment of Otherwise Excludable Participants. For purposes of this paragraph (b), Otherwise Excludable Participants will not be considered.

3.23

Annual Overall and Cumulative Permitted Disparity Limit. In any Plan Year, if an Employee benefits under more than one plan, then the annual overall permitted disparity limit of this Section is satisfied only if an Employee’s Total Annual Disparity Fraction does not exceed one. Furthermore, the cumulative permitted disparity limit for a Participant is 35 Total Cumulative Permitted Disparity Years. The following rules apply in determining compliance with the two prior sentences:

(a)

Plans Taken into Account. All plans of the Employer are taken into account. In addition, all plans of any other employer are taken into account for all Service with the other employer for which the Employee receives credit for purposes of allocations/benefit accruals under any plan of the current Employer.

(b)

Application of the Limit. The limit of this Section takes into account the disparity provided under a section 401(1) plan, as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12, and the permitted disparity imputed under a plan that satisfies Code §401(a)(4) by relying on Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7.

(c)

Total Annual Disparity Fraction. The term “Total Annual Disparity Fraction” means the sum of the Employee’s Annual Disparity Fractions for a Plan Year. An Employee’s Total Annual Disparity Fraction is determined as of the end of each Plan Year, based on the Employee’s Annual Disparity Fractions under all plans with plan years ending in the current Plan Year. The following subparagraphs determine an Employee’s Annual Disparity Fractions:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 72 of 114		July 2008

(1)

Annual Disparity Fraction for a Defined Contribution Plan. The Annual Disparity Fraction for an Employee benefiting under a defined contribution plan that is a section 401(1) plan, as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12, is a fraction: (A) the numerator of which is the disparity provided under the plan for the Plan Year; and (B) the denominator of which is the maximum excess allowance under Regulation §1.401(1)-2(b)(2) for the Plan Year.

(2)

Annual Disparity Fraction for a Defined Benefit Excess Plan. The Annual Disparity Fraction for an Employee benefiting under a defined benefit excess plan that is a section 401(1) plan, as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12, is a fraction: (A) the numerator of which is the disparity provided under the plan for the Plan Year; and (B) the denominator of which is the maximum excess allowance under Regulation §1.401(1)-3(b)(2) for the Plan Year.

(3)

Annual Disparity Fraction for a Defined Benefit Offset Plan. In general, the Annual Disparity Fraction for an Employee benefiting under a defined benefit offset plan that is a section 401(1) plan, as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12, is a fraction: (A) the numerator of which is the disparity provided under the plan for the Plan Year; and (B) the denominator of which is the maximum offset allowance under Regulation §1.401(1)-3(b)(3) for the Plan Year. However, if a defined benefit offset plan applies an offset of a specified percentage of the employee’s PIA, as permitted under Regulation §1.401(1)-3(c)(2)(ix), then the numerator of the prior sentence is the offset percentage used in the Code §401(1) overlay under the plan.

(4)

Annual Disparity Fraction for a Plan that Imputes Disparity. The Annual Disparity Fraction for an Employee benefiting under a plan that imputes permitted disparity with respect to the Employee under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7 is one.

(5)

Annual Disparity Fraction for a Plan that Neither is a Section 401(1) Plan Nor Imputes Disparity . The Annual Disparity Fraction for an Employee benefiting under a plan that neither is a section 401(1) plan as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12 nor imputes permitted disparity under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7 is zero.

(6)

Determination of Annual Disparity Fractions. Generally, a separate Annual Disparity Fraction is determined for each plan under which the Employee benefits. If two plans are aggregated and treated as a single plan for purposes of Code §401(a)(4), a single annual disparity fraction applies to the aggregated plan. However, if a plan provides an allocation or benefit equal to the sum of two or more formulas, then each formula is considered a separate plan for purposes of this Section. If a plan provides an allocation or benefit equal to the greater of two or more formulas, then an Annual Disparity Fraction is calculated for the Employee under each formula and the largest of the fractions is the Employee’s Annual Disparity Fraction under the plan.

(d)

Adjustment to Plans if Total Annual Disparity Fraction Exceeds One. If (1) this Plan utilizes the disparity provided under a section 401(1) plan as defined in Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12 and/or the permitted disparity imputed under a plan that satisfies Code §401(a)(4) by relying on Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7, and (2) the Total Annual Disparity Fraction exceeds one, then the following provisions will apply in a uniform manner for all Employees:

(1)

Other Plan(s) have Adjustment Method. If the other plan(s) have a method to adjust Employer-provided contributions or benefits to assure that the Total Annual Disparity Fraction does not exceed one, then the adjustment method of the other plan(s) will apply.

(2)

Other Plan(s) do not have Adjustment Method. If the other plan(s) do not have a method to adjust employer-provided contributions or benefits to assure that the Total Annual Disparity Fraction does not exceed one, then the Sponsoring Employer will establish an administrative policy that is promulgated under Section 8.6 that adjusts Employer-provided contributions or benefits so that the Total Annual Disparity Fraction does not exceed one.

(3)

Special Rule for Multiple Prototypes Using this Same Basic Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, if multiple prototype plans (including this Plan) utilize this same Prototype Basic Plan, then the Sponsoring Employer will establish an administrative policy that is promulgated under Section 8.6 that adjusts Employer-provided contributions or benefits so that the Total Annual Disparity Fraction does not exceed one.

(e)

Cumulative Permitted Disparity Limit. Effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1995, the cumulative permitted disparity limit for a Participant is 35 Total Cumulative Permitted Disparity Years. The term “Total Cumulative Permitted Disparity Years” means the number of Plan Years credited to the Participant for allocation or accrual purposes under this Plan, and under any other qualified plan or simplified employee pension plan (whether or not terminated) ever maintained by the Employer. For purposes of determining the Participant’s cumulative permitted disparity limit, all Plan Years ending in the same calendar year are treated as the same Plan Year. If the Participant has not benefited under a defined benefit or target benefit plan for any Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 1994, then the Participant has no cumulative disparity limit For purposes of the prior sentence, a Participant is not treated as benefiting under a defined benefit plan for a Plan Year if the defined benefit plan was not a section 401(1) plan within the meaning of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-12 for that Plan Year and did not impute permitted disparity under Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-7 for that Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 73 of 114		July 2008

Article 4

Plan Benefits

4.1

Benefit Upon Normal (or Early) Retirement. Every Participant who has reached Normal (or Early) Retirement Age will be entitled upon subsequent Termination of Employment with the Employer to receive his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. Distribution will be made under Section 5.1.

4.2

Benefit Upon Late Retirement. A Participant who has reached Normal Retirement Age may elect to remain employed by the Employer and retire at a later date. Such Participant will continue to participate in the Plan and his or her Participant’s Account will continue to receive allocations under Article 3. Upon actual retirement, the Participant will be entitled to his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. In addition, if elected in the Adoption Agreement, a Participant who elects late retirement may at any time (1) choose to have distributed prior to actual retirement all or part of his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution; or (2) choose to have such Vested Aggregate Account balance transferred to another qualified retirement plan maintained by the Employer. Upon actual retirement, the Participant will be entitled to his or her undistributed Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. Distribution will be made under Section 5.1.

4.3

Benefit Upon Death. Upon the death of a Participant prior to Termination of Employment with the Employer, or upon the death of a Terminated Participant prior to distribution of his or her Vested Aggregate Account, his or her Beneficiary will be entitled to the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. If any Beneficiary who is living on the date of the Participant’s death dies prior to receiving his or her entire death benefit, the portion of such death benefit will be paid in a lump sum to the estate of such deceased Beneficiary. The Administrator’s determination that a Participant has died and that a particular person has a right to receive a death benefit will be final. Distribution will be made under Section 5.2.

4.4

Benefit Upon Disability. If a Participant suffers a Disability prior to Termination of Employment with the Employer, or if a Terminated Participant suffers a Disability prior to distribution of his or her Vested Aggregate Account, he or she will be entitled to his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. Distribution will be made under Section 5.3.

4.5

Benefit Upon Termination of Employment. A Terminated Participant will be entitled to his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance as of the most recent Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding the date of distribution. Distribution to a Terminated Participant who does not die prior to distribution or who does not suffer a Disability prior to distribution will be made under Section 5.4

4.6

Determination of Vested Interest. A Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account will be determined in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

100% Vesting Upon Retirement, Death or Disability. A Participant will have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account upon reaching Normal Retirement Age prior to Termination of Employment. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, a Participant will also have a 100% Vested Interest therein upon (1) his or her retirement at Early Retirement; (2) his or her Disability prior to Termination of Employment; or (3) his or her death prior to Termination of Employment.

(b)

100% Vesting of Elective Deferral Accounts and Certain Other Accounts. A Participant will at all times have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her Elective Deferral Account, ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account, ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contribution Account, Qualified Matching Contribution Account, Qualified Non-Elective Contribution Account, Voluntary Employee Contribution Account, Mandatory Employee Contribution Account and Deemed IRA Contribution Account.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 74 of 114		July 2008

(c)

Vesting of All Other Contributions. A Participant’s Vested Interest in all Employer contribution accounts not specified in paragraph (b) will be determined by the Vesting schedule or schedules as elected in the Adoption Agreement. If the Counting of Hours Method is used for Vesting purposes, then a Participant’s Vested Interest will be based on the Years of Service that are credited to such Participant. If the Elapsed Time Method is used for Vesting purposes, then a Participant’s Vested Interest will be based on the 1-Year Periods of Service that are credited to the Participant. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, then in determining a Participant’s Vested Interest under this paragraph, a Participant’s Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service will be disregarded (1) during any period for which the Employer did not maintain this Plan or a predecessor plan; (2) if the Counting of Hours Method is used for Vesting purposes, then before the Vesting Computation Period in which the Participant attains Age 18; (3) if the Elapsed Time Method is used for Vesting purposes, then before the 1-Year Period of Service in which the Participant attains Age 18; (4) if the Counting of Hours Method is used for Vesting purposes, then during any Vesting Computation Period for which the Participant fails to make Mandatory Employee Contributions to the Plan, if applicable to the Plan; and/or (5) if the Elapsed Time Method is used for Vesting purposes, then during any 1-Year Period of Service for which the Participant fails to make Mandatory Employee Contributions to the Plan, if applicable to the Plan. For Plan Years beginning before 2002, Matching Contributions could Vest according to any Vesting schedule that satisfied Code §411(a)(2) (and Code §416(b) if the Plan was Top Heavy). The Vesting schedules available in the Adoption Agreement are described in more detail below:

(1)

(5)

Full and Immediate. A Participant’s Account will be 100% Vested upon entering the Plan as a Participant and at all times thereafter.

(6)

Other. A Participant’s Account will be Vested in accordance with the schedule entered on the Adoption Agreement; provided, however, that any schedule entered for a non-Top Heavy Plan Year must be at least as favorable as either the 7 Year Graded Vesting schedule of subparagraph (1) above or the 5 Year Cliff Vesting schedule of subparagraph (3) above. Furthermore, any schedule entered for a Top Heavy Plan Year must be at least as favorable as either the 6 Year Graded Vesting schedule of subparagraph (2) above or the 3 Year Cliff Vesting schedule of subparagraph (3) above.

(d)

Vesting in a Top Heavy Plan Year. In a Top Heavy Plan Year, a Participant’s Vested Interest in all Employer contributions allocated to his or her Participant’s Account which are subject to a non-Top Heavy Vesting schedule will be determined by the Top Heavy Vesting schedule as elected in the Adoption Agreement. If this Plan ceases to be Top Heavy and the non-Top Heavy Vesting schedule again becomes effective, a Participant’s Vested Interest as determined under the Top Heavy Vesting schedule cannot be reduced. Furthermore, any such reverting back to the non-Top Heavy Vesting schedule will be considered an amendment to this Section and will be treated in accordance with paragraph (g) below pertaining to amendments to a Vesting schedule. Only those Years/Periods of Service which are included in determining a Participant’s Vested Interest in a non-Top Heavy Plan Year will be included in determining a Participant’s Vested Interest in a Top Heavy Plan Year hereunder.

(e)

Vesting Requirement upon Complete Termination or Discontinuance of Contributions. Upon a complete termination of the Plan, or, in the case of a Plan to which Code §412 does not apply, upon a complete discontinuance of contributions under the Plan, then (1) any Participant who is affected by such complete termination or, if applicable, such complete discontinuance of contributions; (2) any Participant who has not Terminated Employment with the Employer; (3) any Participant who has Terminated Employment with the Employer and has not received a complete distribution of the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account; and (4) any Participant who has Terminated Employment but has not incurred five consecutive Breaks in Service; will have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her unpaid Participant’s Account.

(f)

Vesting Requirement upon Partial Termination Upon partial termination of the Plan, only a Participant who has Terminated Employment because of the event which causes the partial termination but who has not incurred five consecutive Breaks in Service will have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her unpaid Participant’s Account as of the date of partial termination.

(g)

Amendments to the Vesting Schedule. No amendment to the Plan may directly or indirectly reduce a Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account. If the Plan is amended in any way that directly or indirectly affects the computation of a Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account, or the Plan is deemed amended by an automatic change to or from a Top Heavy Vesting schedule, then the following provisions will apply:

(1)

Participant Election. Any Participant with at least three Years/Periods of Service may, by filing a written request with the Administrator, elect to have the Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account computed by the Vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment. A Participant who fails to make an election will have the Vested Interest computed under the new schedule. The period in which the election may be made will begin on the date the amendment is adopted or is deemed to be made and will end on the latest of (A) 60 days after the amendment is adopted; (B) 60 days after the amendment becomes effective; or (C) 60 days after the Participant is issued written notice of the amendment by the Employer or Administrator.

(2)

Preservation of Vested Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the vesting schedule is amended, then in the case of an Employee who is a Participant as of the later of the date such amendment is adopted or the date it becomes effective, the Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account determined as of such date will not be less than his or her Vested Interest computed under the Plan without regard to such amendment.

Article 5

Distribution of Benefits

5.1

Distribution of Benefit Upon Retirement. Unless a mandatory cash-out occurs under Section 5.5, the retirement benefit a Participant is entitled to receive under Section 4.1 or 4.2 will be distributed as follows:

(a)

Normal Form of Distribution in a 401(k) Plan or Profit Sharing Plan. If the Plan is either a 401(k) Plan or a profit sharing plan, then a Participant’s benefit will be distributed in the form that is elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement; the permitted Normal Forms of Distribution are (1) a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (2) a lump sum payment; or (3) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant; the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary; or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. If the Normal Form of Distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and which complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments.

(b)

Normal Form of Distribution in a Money Purchase Pension Plan. If the Plan is a money purchase pension plan, then the Normal Form of Distribution is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity if the Participant has not died before the Annuity Starting Date.

(c)

Optional Forms of Distribution. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, then a Participant may waive the Normal Form of Distribution and elect to have his or her benefit distributed in an Optional Form of Distribution. The permitted Optional Forms of Distribution are (1) a lump sum payment; (2) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant, the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary, or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. If an Optional Form of Distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (3) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and which complies with the terms of the Plan; and/or (4) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Participant. All Optional Forms of Distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(d)

Partial Distributions. If a Participant receives a distribution of less than 100% of his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance, then the Administrator will determine the portion (including zero) of the distribution that will be made from each of the Participant’s sub-accounts, provided that any such determination is made in a uniform nondiscriminatory manner.

(e)

Time of Distribution. Distribution will be made under this Section (1) within a reasonable time after the Participant’s actual retirement at Normal Retirement Date (or Early Retirement Date, if applicable), or (2) within a reasonable time after the date that a Participant who elects late retirement under Section 4.2 requests payment as permitted thereunder.

5.2

Distribution of Benefit Upon Death. Unless a mandatory cash-out occurs under Section 5.5, the death benefit a deceased Participant’s Beneficiary is entitled to receive under Section 4.3 will be distributed as follows:

(a)

Surviving Spouse. If a Participant has a surviving Spouse on the date of the Participant’s death, then the deceased Participant’s surviving Spouse will be entitled to receive a death benefit determined in accordance with the following provisions:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 77 of 114		July 2008

(1)

Normal Form of Distribution Is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. If the Normal Form of Distribution elected under Section 5.1 is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, a Participant dies before the Annuity Starting Date, and the Participant has a surviving Spouse on the date of the Participant’s death, then notwithstanding any other Beneficiary designation made by the Participant, the Participant’s surviving Spouse will receive a minimum death benefit as a QPSA unless such QPSA has been waived in accordance with the terms of Section 5.8. If the QPSA has been waived, then the benefit (and any additional death benefit to which the surviving Spouse is entitled) will be distributed in the alternate form(s) that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. The alternate forms of distribution permitted under the Adoption Agreement are (A) a lump sum payment; (B) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the surviving Spouse (or beyond the life expectancy of the surviving Spouse). If an alternate form of distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (C) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and complies with the terms of the Plan; and/or (D) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Beneficiary. All alternate forms of distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(2)

Normal Form of Distribution Is Not a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. If the Normal Form of Distribution elected under Section 5.1 is not a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and the Participant has a surviving Spouse on the date of the Participant’s death, then notwithstanding any other Beneficiary designation made by a Participant, the deceased Participant’s surviving Spouse will be entitled to receive 100% of the deceased Participant’s death benefit unless the surviving Spouse has waived that right in accordance with the terms of Section 5.8. If the Normal Form of Distribution elected under Section 5.1 has been waived, then the benefit will be distributed to the surviving Spouse in the alternate form(s) that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. The alternate forms of distribution permitted under the Adoption Agreement are (A) a lump sum payment; (B) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the surviving Spouse (or beyond the life expectancy of the surviving Spouse). If an alternate form of distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (C) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and complies with the terms of the Plan; and/or (D) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Beneficiary. All alternate forms of distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(3)

Time of Distribution. Any death benefit payable to a surviving Spouse will be distributed within a reasonable time after the death of the Participant, but not later than December 31st of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the date of the Participant’s death pursuant to Section 5.9(b)(2)(A), if required minimum distributions to the Participant have not begun. However, if the Life Expectancy rule is elected in the Adoption Agreement and the surviving Spouse elects the Life Expectancy rule under Section 5.9(b)(2)(B), then the surviving Spouse may elect to defer distribution of the death benefit, but distribution to the surviving Spouse must begin no later than December 31st of the calendar year in which the deceased Participant would have attained Age 70 ¹ / ₂ .

(4)

Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distribution Begins. If the surviving Spouse dies before distribution begins, then distribution will be made as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant. If the Normal Form of Distribution that is elected under Section 5.1 is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and the QPSA has not been waived, or if the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit a Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s surviving Spouse) to elect the Life Expectancy rule and the Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s surviving Spouse) elects the Life Expectancy rule, then distribution will be considered to have begun when the deceased Participant would have reached Age 70 ¹ / ₂ even if payments have been made to the surviving Spouse before that date. Furthermore, if distribution to the surviving Spouse commences in the form of an irrevocable annuity over a period permitted under subparagraph (a)(1) above before the deceased Participant would have reached Age 70 ¹ / ₂ , then distribution will be considered to have begun on the actual annuity commencement date.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 78 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Non-Spouse Beneficiary. Any death benefit payable to a non-Spouse Beneficiary will be distributed to the Beneficiary in accordance with the following provisions:

(1)

Form of Distribution. Any such death benefit will be distributed to the Beneficiary in the form(s) that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement. The forms of distribution permitted under the Adoption Agreement are (A) a lump sum payment; (B) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Beneficiary (or beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary). If a form of distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (C) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and which complies with the terms of the Plan; and/or (D) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Beneficiary. All forms of distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(2)

Time of Distribution. Any death benefit payable to a non-Spouse Beneficiary will be distributed within a reasonable time after the death of the Participant, but not later than December 31st of the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the date of the Participant’s death pursuant to Section 5.9(b)(2)(A), if required minimum distributions to the Participant have not begun. However, if the Life Expectancy rule is elected in the Adoption Agreement and the non-Spouse Beneficiary elects the Life Expectancy rule pursuant to Section 5.9(b)(2)(B), then distribution of the death benefit to a non-Spouse Beneficiary must begin no later than December 31st of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died.

(c)

Distribution If the Participant or Other Payee Is In Pay Status. If a Participant or Beneficiary who has begun receiving distribution of his or her benefit dies before the entire benefit is distributed, then the balance thereof will be distributed to the Participant’s Beneficiary (or Beneficiary’s Beneficiary) at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used on the date of the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s death.

(d)

Payments to a Beneficiary of a Beneficiary. In the absence of a Beneficiary designation or other directive from the deceased Participant to the contrary, any Beneficiary may name his or her own Beneficiary to receive any benefits payable in the event of the Beneficiary’s death prior to receiving the entire death benefit to which the Beneficiary is entitled; if a Beneficiary has not named his or her own Beneficiary, then the Beneficiary’s estate will be the Beneficiary. If any benefit is payable under this paragraph to a Beneficiary of the deceased Participant’s Beneficiary, to the estate of the deceased Participant’s Beneficiary, or to any other Beneficiary or the estate thereof, then subject to the limitations regarding the latest dates for benefit payment of this Section and Section 5.9, the Administrator may (1) continue to pay the remaining value of such benefits in the amount and form that has already commenced, (2) pay such benefits in any other manner permitted under the Plan for distribution of benefits upon death, and/or (3) if payments have not already commenced, pay such benefits in any other manner permitted under the Plan for distribution of benefits upon death. Distribution to the Beneficiary of a Beneficiary must begin no later than the date that a distribution would have been made to the Participant’s Beneficiary. The Administrator’s determination under this paragraph will be final and will be applied in a uniform manner that does not discriminate in favor of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees.

(e)

Partial Distributions. If a Participant’s Beneficiary receives a distribution of less than 100% of the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance, then the Administrator will determine the portion (including zero) of the distribution that will be made from each of the Participant’s sub-accounts, provided that any such determination is made in a uniform manner that does not discriminate in favor of Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 79 of 114		July 2008

5.3

Distribution of Benefit Upon Disability. Unless a mandatory cash-out occurs under Section 5.5, the Disability benefit a Participant is entitled to receive under Section 4.4 will be distributed in the following manner:

(a)

Normal Form of Distribution in a 401(k) Plan or Profit Sharing Plan. If the Plan is either a 401(k) Plan or a profit sharing plan, then a Participant’s benefit will be distributed in the form that is elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement; the permitted Normal Forms of Distribution are (1) a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (2) a lump sum payment; or (3) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant; the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary; or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. If the Normal Form of Distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments.

(b)

(c)

Optional Forms of Distribution. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, then a Participant may waive the Normal Form of Distribution and elect to have his or her benefit distributed in an Optional Form of Distribution. The permitted Optional Forms of Distribution are (1) a lump sum payment; (2) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant; the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary; or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. If an Optional Form of Distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (3) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and which complies with the terms of this Plan; and/or (4) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Participant. All Optional Forms of Distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(d)

(e)

Time of Distribution. Distribution will be made under this Section (1) if elected in the Adoption Agreement, within an administratively reasonable time after the date on which a Participant who suffers a Disability Terminates Employment with the Employer on account of the Disability; or (2) if elected in the Adoption Agreement, on the date that a distribution is to be made to a Terminated Participant under Section 5.4

5.4

Distribution of Benefit Upon Termination of Employment. Unless a mandatory cash-out occurs under Section 5.5 or a distribution occurs under Section 5.1, 5.2, or 5.3, the benefit that a Terminated Participant is entitled to receive under Section 4.5 will be distributed in the following manner:

(a)

Normal Form of Distribution in a 401(k) Plan or Profit Sharing Plan. If the Plan is either a 401(k) Plan or a profit sharing plan, then a Participant’s benefit will be distributed in the form that is elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement; the permitted Normal Forms of Distribution are (1) a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (2) a lump sum payment; or (3) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant; the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary; or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary.

DC Basic Plan #01		Page 80 of 114		July 2008

(b)

(c)

Optional Forms of Distribution. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, then a Participant may waive the Normal Form of Distribution and elect to have his or her benefit distributed in an Optional Form of Distribution. The permitted Optional Forms of Distribution are (1) a lump sum payment; (2) Substantially Equal monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual cash installment payments over a period certain which does not extend beyond the life of the Participant; the joint lives of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary; or a period certain not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary. If an Optional Form of Distribution is Substantially Equal installment payments, then the lump sum value of the Participant’s benefit either may be segregated and separately invested and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; may remain invested in the Trust’s assets and the Substantially Equal installments will be paid from the Plan; or may be used to purchase a nontransferable immediate or deferred annuity that is selected by the Employer and that complies with the terms of the Plan from an insurance company to provide for such Substantially Equal installments; (3) a non-transferable annuity which can be purchased from an insurance company and which complies with the terms of this Plan; and/or (4) in designated sums from time to time as elected by the Participant. All Optional Forms of Distribution that are elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement are available on a non-discriminatory basis and are not subject to the Administrator’s discretion.

(d)

(e)

Time of Distribution. Distribution will be made under this Section within an administratively reasonable time after the occurrence of the event as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement.

5.5

Mandatory Cash-Out of Benefits. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, the Vested Aggregate Account balance of a Participant who has Terminated Employment, who is entitled to a distribution under Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 or 5.4 and who satisfies the requirements set forth below will be distributed without the Participant’s consent in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

General Rule. Distribution can only be made under this Section if a Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance on or after the date of Termination of Employment does not exceed the amount elected in the Adoption Agreement. Distribution will be made as soon as administratively feasible after the Participant Terminates Employment.

(b)

Later Distribution if Account Falls to the Threshold. If a Participant would have received a distribution under paragraph (a) but for the fact that his or her Vested Aggregate Account exceeded the cash-out threshold elected in the Adoption Agreement, and if at a later time the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account is reduced to an amount not greater than the cash-out threshold, the Administrator will distribute such Vested Aggregate Account in a lump sum without the Participant’s consent as soon as administratively feasible after the date the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account no longer exceeds the cash-out threshold.

(c)

Cash-out Threshold and the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account. If the cash-out threshold elected in the Adoption Agreement is $5,000, then effective January 1, 2002, the determination of whether a Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account exceeds $5,000 may be made by excluding the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account (if any). If the cash-out threshold elected in the Adoption Agreement is any amount other than $5,000, the determination of whether a Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance exceeds such amount must be made by including the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account (if any).

(d)

Cash-out Threshold Exceeds $1,000. If the cash-out threshold exceeds $1,000 at any time, then a mandatory cash-out distribution under this paragraph will, at the election of the Participant, be made as a lump sum cash payment or as a direct rollover under Section 5.14. Prior to March 28, 2005, if the Participant does not elect to have the distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution as a lump sum cash payment, then the Administrator will pay the distribution as a lump sum cash payment. However, if the cash-out threshold ever exceeds $1,000 on or after March 28, 2005, the remaining provisions of this paragraph apply. In the event of a mandatory cash-out distribution greater than $1,000, if the Participant does not elect to have such distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution as a lump sum cash payment, the Administrator will pay the distribution in an automatic direct rollover to an individual retirement plan designated by the Administrator. Such individual retirement plan, as defined in Code §7701(a)(37), may be either an individual retirement account within the meaning of Code §408(a) or an individual retirement annuity within the meaning of Code §408(b); either of which will subsequently be referred to as an IRA. The Administrator will establish the IRA at a qualified financial institution by selecting an IRA trustee, custodian or issuer that is unrelated to the Employer or the Administrator (unless subsequent rules or Regulations permit otherwise), and will make the initial investment choices for the IRA. An automatic direct rollover will occur not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days (or such other time as permitted by law) after the Code §402(f) notice with the explanation of the automatic direct rollover is provided to the Participant. The determination of whether a mandatory cash-out distribution exceeds $1,000 will be made by including the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account (if any).


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 81 of 114		July 2008

(e)

Cash-out Threshold Does Not Exceed $1,000. If the cash-out threshold is $1,000 or less at any time, a mandatory cash-out distribution under this paragraph will, at the election of the Participant, be made as a lump sum cash payment or as a direct rollover under Section 5.14. If the Participant does not elect to have the distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the Participant in a direct rollover or to receive the distribution as a lump sum cash payment, the Administrator will pay the distribution as a lump sum cash payment; any such lump sum cash payment will occur not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days (or such other time as permitted by law) after the Code §402(f) notice is provided to the Participant.

5.6

Restrictions on Immediate Distributions. If a Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance exceeds the amount set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section and is Immediately Distributable, then such account can only be distributed in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

General Rule. If (1) the Vested Aggregate Account balance (effective January 1, 2002, determined before taking into account the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account) of a Participant who has Terminated Employment exceeds $5,000, or if there are remaining payments to be made with respect to a particular distribution option that previously commenced, and (2) such amount is Immediately Distributable, then the Participant (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant’s Spouse, if any (or where either the Participant or Spouse has died, the survivor)), must consent to any distribution of such amount. If (1) the Vested Aggregate Account balance (effective January 1, 2002, determined before taking into account the Participant’s Rollover Contribution Account) of a Participant who has Terminated Employment does not exceed $5,000, but (if applicable) exceeds the cash-out threshold that the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement, and (2) such amount is Immediately Distributable, then only the Participant (or where the Participant has died, the Participant’s Spouse or Beneficiary) must consent to any distribution of such amount.

(b)

General Consent Requirement. The consent of the Participant (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant’s Spouse, if any (or where either the Participant or Spouse has died, the survivor)) to any benefit that is Immediately Distributable must be obtained in writing within the 90-day period (or such other period as may be required by law) ending on the Annuity Starting Date. However, (1) with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is not subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant will not be required to consent to a distribution that is required by Code §401(a)(9) or §415; and (2) with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, (A) only the Participant must consent to the distribution of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity while the benefit is Immediately Distributable, and (B) neither the Participant (nor the Participant’s Spouse, if any) will be required to consent to a distribution that is required under the terms of Code §401(a)(9) or Code §415.

(c)

Notification Requirement. The Administrator must notify the Participant (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant’s Spouse) of the right to defer any distribution until it is no longer Immediately Distributable. Notification will include a general explanation of the material features and relative values of the optional forms of benefit available in a manner that would satisfy the notice requirements of Code §417(a)(3); and will be provided no less than 30 days or more than 90 days (or such other period as may be required by law) prior to the Annuity Starting Date. Notwithstanding the other requirements of this Section, the respective notices prescribed by this Section need not be given to a Participant if (1) the Plan “fully subsidizes” the costs of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity;, and (2) the Plan does not allow the Participant to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity, and does not allow a Participant who has a Spouse to designate a non-Spouse Beneficiary. For purposes of this Section, a plan fully subsidizes the costs of a benefit if no increases in cost, or decreases in benefits to the Participant may result from the Participant’s failure to elect another benefit.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 82 of 114		July 2008

(d)

Waiver of 30-Day Requirement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, distribution of a Participant’s benefit may begin less than 30 days after the notice described in paragraph (c) is given if (1) the Administrator clearly informs the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution; (2) the Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution (or a particular distribution option); and (3) with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant does not revoke the election at any time prior to the expiration of the 7-day period that begins on the date the notice is given.

(e)

Consent Not Needed on Plan Termination. If upon Plan termination neither the Employer nor an Affiliated Employer maintains another defined contribution plan other than an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) as defined in Code §4975(e)(7) or §409(a), then the Participant’s benefit will, without the Participant’s consent (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, without the Spouse’s consent), be distributed to the Participant. If the Employer or an Affiliated Employer maintains another defined contribution plan other than an ESOP, then the Participant’s benefit will, without the Participant’s consent (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, without the Spouse’s consent), be transferred to the other plan if the Participant does not consent to an immediate distribution under this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph will not apply to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417 if the Plan, upon termination, offers an annuity option purchased from a commercial provider with respect to such portion of the Participant’s Account.

5.7

Accounts of Reemployed Participants. If a Participant who is not 100% Vested in his or her Participant’s Account Terminates Employment with the Employer, a Forfeiture of all or a portion of the Participant’s Account of the Participant who has Terminated Employment may have occurred, and the Participant is subsequently reemployed by the Employer, then the Participant’s Account of the reemployed Participant will be administered in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Reemployment of a Participant After 5 Consecutive Breaks in Service. If the Participant is reemployed by the Employer after incurring five consecutive Breaks in Service, then any previous Forfeiture of the Participant’s Account will not be restored under the terms of this Plan.

(b)

Reemployment of a Non-Vested Participant Before 5 Consecutive Breaks in Service. If a Participant’s Vested Interest in the entire Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions is 0% on the date the Participant Terminates Employment, the Participant is deemed to have received a distribution of such Vested Interest on the date of such Termination of Employment pursuant to the Section 3.13(a)(1), a Forfeiture of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions occurs on the date of such Termination of Employment pursuant to the Section 3.13(a)(1), and the Participant is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring five consecutive Breaks in Service, then the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions will be restored, calculated as of the date that the Forfeiture occurred (unadjusted by subsequent gains and losses). Furthermore, if a Participant’s Vested Interest in the entire Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions is 0% on the date the Participant Terminates Employment, a Forfeiture of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions occurs on the date that a Participant incurs the number of consecutive Breaks in Service after Termination of Employment that the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement pursuant to the Section 3.13(a)(2), and the Participant is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring five consecutive Breaks in Service, then the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions will be restored, calculated as of the date that the Forfeiture occurred (unadjusted by subsequent gains and losses). Such restoration of the previous Forfeiture attributable to Employer contributions will occur in the Plan Year that such Participant is reemployed by the Employer.

(c)

Reemployment of a Vested Participant Before 5 Consecutive Breaks in Service. If a Participant’s Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions is less than a 100% (but greater than 0%) on the date that the Participant Terminates Employment, a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions of the Participant who has Terminated Employment may have occurred, and the Participant is subsequently reemployed by the Employer before incurring five consecutive Breaks in Service, then the following provisions will apply:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 83 of 114		July 2008

(1)

Distribution Has Occurred But No Forfeiture Has Occurred. If a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions has not occurred but a distribution of all or a portion of the Participant’s Account of the Participant who has Terminated Employment has occurred, then a separate bookkeeping account will be established for the Participant’s Account at the time of distribution; the Participant’s Vested Interest in the separate bookkeeping account at any relevant time will be an amount (“X”) determined according to the following formula: X = P(AB + (R x D))—(R x D)). In applying the formula, “P” is the Vested Interest at the relevant time, “AB” is the respective account balance at the relevant time, “D” is the amount of the distribution, and “R” is the ratio of the respective account balance at the relevant time to the respective account balance after the distribution.

(2)

No Distribution Has Occurred But Forfeiture Has Occurred. If the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement that a Forfeiture will occur when a Participant who has Terminated Employment incurs a specified number of consecutive Breaks in Service that is less than five (5) consecutive Breaks in Service, a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions has occurred when a Participant who Terminated Employment incurred the specified number of consecutive Breaks in Service, and the Participant who has Terminated Employment is reemployed by the Sponsoring Employer or an Affiliated Employer before incurring five (5) consecutive Breaks in Service and before receiving any distribution of the Vested Interest in his or her Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions, then the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will be restored, calculated as of the date that the Forfeiture occurred (unadjusted by subsequent gains and losses). Such restoration of the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will occur in the Plan Year that such Participant is reemployed by the Employer.

(3)

Both Distribution and Forfeiture Have Occurred. If a distribution of all or a portion of the Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account of a Participant who has Terminated Employment has occurred and a Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions has occurred (which may not necessarily occur at the same time that the distribution occurs), then the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will be restored, calculated as of the date the Forfeiture occurred (unadjusted by subsequent gains and losses) and based upon the Sponsoring Employer’s decision whether the Participant is required to repay to the Plan the full amount of all distribution(s) which were attributable to Employer contributions (and if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), including Elective Deferrals). With respect to such decision of the Sponsoring Employer whether the Participant is required to repay to the Plan the full amount of all distribution(s) which were attributable to Employer contributions (and if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), including Elective Deferrals) in order to have the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions be restored, the following provisions will apply:

(A)

Precedent Established. Once such decision by the Sponsoring Employer has been made, such decision will establish precedence for the Plan and cannot be changed, altered or modified.

(B)

Time of Restoration If Repayment Is Not Required. If, based upon the Sponsoring Employer’s decision, the Participant is not required to repay to the Plan the full amount of all distribution(s) which were attributable to Employer contributions (and if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), including Elective Deferrals) in order to have the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions be restored, then such restoration will occur in the Plan Year in which the Participant is reemployed by the Employer.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 84 of 114		July 2008

(C)

Time of Restoration If Repayment Is Required. If, based upon the Sponsoring Employer’s decision, the Participant is required to repay to the Plan the full amount of all distribution(s) which were attributable to Employer contributions (and if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), including Elective Deferrals) in order to have the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions be restored, then, such repayment by the Participant must be made before the earlier of (i) five years after the Participant’s Reemployment Commencement Date, or (ii) the date on which the Participant incurs five consecutive Breaks in Service following the date of distribution of either the entire or the remaining Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account. Such restoration of the previous Forfeiture of such Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions will occur in the Plan Year that the Participant repays to the Plan the full (or any remaining) amount of the distribution which was attributable to Employer contributions (and if this Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then effective as of the first day of Plan Year beginning in 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment for implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), including Elective Deferrals).

(d)

Sources of Restoration of Previously Forfeited Amounts. The sources to restore a previous Forfeiture of the non-Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance attributable to Employer contributions pursuant to this Section will be made first by using available Forfeitures to restore the previous Forfeiture and, if such available Forfeitures are insufficient to restore the previous Forfeiture, by the Employer making a special Employer contribution to the Plan to the extent necessary to restore the previous Forfeiture.

5.8

Waiver of Benefits and Spousal Consent. If following provisions apply to a Participant’s (or, where applicable, a Participant’s Spouse’s) waiver of benefits under the Plan:

(a)

Normal Form of Distribution Is Not a QJSA. If the Normal Form of Distribution is not a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, all distributions can be made from the Plan to a Participant without the consent of the Participant’s Spouse, except for any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417. Subject to the provisions of the next sentence, with regard to a death benefit payable to a Spouse, a Spouse can elect to waive such death benefit under Section 5.2 of the Plan, but the election will not be effective unless (1) the election is in writing; (2) the election designates a specific Beneficiary or form of benefit which may not be changed without Spousal consent (or the Spouse’s consent expressly permits designations by the Participant without any requirement of further Spousal consent); and (3) the Spouse’s consent acknowledges the effect of the election and is witnessed by the Administrator or a notary public. With regard to a distribution of any portion of a Participant’s Account which is subject to the QJSA and QPSA requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the provisions set forth in paragraph (b) below apply.

(b)

Normal Form of Distribution Is a QJSA. If the Normal Form of Distribution is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or with respect to any portion of a Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and §417, the following provisions apply:

(1)

Election to Waive a QJSA. A married Participant’s election to waive a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, or an unmarried Participant’s election to waive a life annuity, must be in writing and must be made during the 90-day period (or such other period as may be required by law) ending on the Annuity Starting Date. The election may be revoked in writing and a new election may be made at any time and any number of times during the election period.

(2)

Election to Waive a QPSA. A married Participant’s election to waive a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity must be in writing and must be made during an election period beginning on the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant reaches Age 35 and ending on the date of his or her death. The election may be revoked in writing and a new election made at any time and any number of times during the election period. A terminated Participant’s election period concerning his or her Vested Aggregate Account before Termination of Employment will not begin later than such date. If elected in the Adoption Agreement and the Participant has not completed a designation form specifying the time and/or form of payment of the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity prior to the Participant’s death, then the surviving Spouse may elect to receive the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity in any optional form of payment permitted in Section 5.2 and as elected in the Adoption Agreement.

(3)

Special Pre-Age 35 QPSA Election. A Participant who has not yet reached Age 35 as of the end of any current Plan Year may make a special election to waive a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity for the period beginning on the date of such election and ending on the first day of the Plan Year in which such Participant reaches Age 35. This election will not be valid unless the Participant receives the same written explanation of the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity set forth in subparagraph (4). Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity coverage will be automatically reinstated as of the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant reaches Age 35. A new election to waive a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity on or after such date is subject to the full requirements of this Section.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 85 of 114		July 2008

(4)

Required Written Explanation. In the case of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the Administrator will no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days (or such other period as may be required by law) prior to the Annuity Starting Date provide to each Participant a written explanation of (A) the terms and conditions of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (B) the Participant’s right to make and the effect of an election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity form of benefit; (C) the rights of a Participant’s Spouse; and (D) the right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a previous election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. The Annuity Starting Date for a distribution in a form other than a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity may be less than 30 days after receipt of the written explanation described in the preceding sentence provided: (A) the Participant has been provided with information that clearly indicates that the Participant has at least 30 days to consider whether to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and elect (with Spousal consent) to a form of distribution other than a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity; (B) the Participant is permitted to revoke any affirmative distribution election at least until the Annuity Starting Date or, if later, at any time prior to the expiration of the 7-day period that begins the day after the explanation of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity is provided to the Participant; and (C) the Annuity Starting Date is a date after the date that the written explanation was provided to the Participant. In the case of a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity, the Administrator will provide each Participant within the Applicable Period as defined in paragraph (5) with a written explanation of the Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity in such terms and in such manner as would be comparable to the written explanation applicable to a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity as set forth herein.

(5)

Applicable Period. The term “Applicable Period” means whichever of the following periods ends last: (A) the period beginning with the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains Age 32 and ending with the close of the Plan Year preceding the Plan Year in which the Participant attains Age 35; (B) a reasonable period after the individual becomes a Participant in the Plan; (C) a reasonable period ending after the requirements of Code §401(a)(11) apply to the Participant; or (D) a reasonable period ending after the requirements of Code §417(a)(5) cease to apply with respect to the Participant. For purposes of this paragraph, a reasonable period means the end of the two year period beginning one year prior to the date the applicable event occurs, and ending one year after that date.

(6)

Participants Who Terminate Before Age 35. If a Participant Terminates Employment before the Plan Year in which he or she reaches Age 35, then the notice required under subparagraph (4) will be provided within the two year period beginning one year prior to such Termination of Employment and ending one year after such Termination of Employment. If such Participant thereafter returns to employment with the Employer, then the Applicable Period for such Participant will be redetermined.

(7)

Elections Must Have Spousal Consent. A Participant’s election not to receive a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity or a Participant’s election not to receive a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity will not be effective unless (A) the Participant’s Spouse consents in writing to the election; (B) the election designates a specific Beneficiary (or form of benefit) which may not be changed without Spousal consent (or the consent of the Spouse expressly permits designations by the Participant without any requirement of further Spousal consent); and (C) the Spouse’s consent acknowledges the effect of the election and is witnessed by the Administrator or a notary public.

(8)

Additional Requirements and Exceptions For Spousal Consent. Notwithstanding subparagraph (7) above, a Spouse’s consent will not be required if there is no Spouse, if the Spouse cannot be located, or if there are other circumstances (as set forth in the Code or Regulations) which preclude the necessity of such Spouse’s consent. Any consent by a Participant’s Spouse (or establishment that consent cannot be obtained) will be effective only with respect to such Spouse. A consent that permits designations by the Participant without any requirement of further Spousal consent must acknowledge that the Spouse has the right to limit consent to a specific Beneficiary, and a specific form of benefit where applicable, and that the Spouse voluntarily elects to relinquish either or both of such rights. A revocation of a prior election may be made by a Participant without the Spouse’s consent at any time before benefits begin. No Spouse’s consent obtained under subparagraph (7) will be valid unless the Participant has received notice as provided in subparagraph (4) above.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 86 of 114		July 2008

5.9

Required Minimum Distributions. All distributions from the Plan will be determined and made in accordance with the final and temporary Regulations under Code §401(a)(9) on April 17, 2002. Pursuant to those Regulations, all distributions will be determined in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

General Rules. All distributions hereunder will be made in accordance with the following general rules:

(1)

Effective Date. Unless an earlier effective date is specified in the Adoption Agreement, the provisions of this Section will apply for purposes of determining required minimum distributions for calendar years beginning with the 2003 calendar year.

(2)

Coordination with Minimum Distribution Requirements Previously in Effect. If the Adoption Agreement specifies an effective date of this Section that is earlier than calendar years beginning with the 2003 calendar year, then required minimum distributions for 2002 under this Section will be determined as follows: If the total amount of 2002 required minimum distributions under the Plan made to the distributee prior to the effective date of this Section equals or exceeds the required minimum distributions determined under this Section, then no additional distributions will be required to be made for 2002 on or after such date to the distributee. If the total amount of 2002 required minimum distributions under the plan made to the distributee prior to the effective date of this Section is less than the amount determined under this Section, then required minimum distributions for 2002 on and after such date will be determined so that the total amount of required minimum distributions for 2002 made to the distributee will be the amount determined under this Section.

(3)

Precedence. The requirements of this Section will take precedence over any inconsistent provisions of the Plan and any prior Plan amendments.

(4)

Requirements of Regulations Incorporated. All distributions required under this Section will be determined and made in accordance with the Regulations under Code §401(a)(9).

(5)

TEFRA §242(b)(2) Elections. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section, distributions may be made under a designation made before January 1, 1984, in accordance with Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) §242(b)(2) and the provisions of the Plan that relate to TEFRA §242(b)(2).

(b)

Time and Manner of Distribution. All required minimum distributions will be made from the Plan in the following time and in the following manner:

(1)

Required Beginning Date. The Participant’s entire interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, to the Participant no later than the Participant’s Required Beginning Date.

(2)

Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the Participant dies before distribution begins, the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed (or begin to be distributed) not later than as follows:

(A)

5-Year Rule Applies to All Distributions to Designated Beneficiaries. If the Participant dies before distributions begin and there is a Designated Beneficiary, the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed to the Designated Beneficiary by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary and the surviving Spouse dies after the Participant but before distributions to either the Participant or the surviving Spouse begin, this subparagraph will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant. This subparagraph also applies to all distributions.

(B)

Life Expectancy Rule. Notwithstanding subparagraph (b)(2)(A), if the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit a Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary) to elect the Life Expectancy rule, then a Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary) may elect on an individual basis whether the Life Expectancy rule applies to distributions after the death of a Participant who has a Designated Beneficiary. The election must be made no later than September 30th of the calendar year in which distribution would be required to begin under this subparagraph (b)(2)(B). If neither the Participant nor the Beneficiary makes an election under this subparagraph (or the election is received later than September 30th of the calendar year in which distribution would be required to begin under this subparagraph (b)(2)(B)), then distributions will be made in accordance with the 5-Year rule of subparagraph (b)(2)(A) above. The following provisions relate to the Life Expectancy rule under this subparagraph (b)(2)(B):


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 87 of 114		July 2008

(i)

Surviving Spouse Is the Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the sole Designated Beneficiary, then distributions to the surviving Spouse will begin by the later of [a] December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died, or [b] December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 70 ¹ / ₂ .

(ii)

Surviving Spouse Is Not the Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is not the sole Designated Beneficiary, then distributions to the Designated Beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died.

(iii)

No Designated Beneficiary. If there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s entire interest will be distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.

(iv)

Surviving Spouse Dies Before Distributions Begin. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary and the surviving Spouse dies after the Participant but before distributions to the surviving Spouse begin, then this subparagraph (b)(2)(B), other than subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(i), will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant.

(v)

Election to Allow Designated Beneficiary Receiving Distributions Under 5-Year Rule to Elect Life Expectancy Distributions. A Designated Beneficiary who is receiving payments under the 5-Year rule may make a new election to receive payments under the Life Expectancy rule until December 31, 2003, provided that all amounts that would have been required to be distributed under the Life Expectancy rule for all Distribution Calendar Years before 2004 are distributed by the earlier of December 31, 2003 or the end of the 5-Year period.

(C)

Date Distributions Are Deemed To Begin. For purposes of this subparagraph (b)(2) and paragraph (d), unless subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(iv) above applies, distributions are considered to begin on the Participant’s Required Beginning Date. If subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(iv) above applies, distributions are considered to begin on the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(i) above. If distributions under an annuity purchased from an insurance company irrevocably commence to the Participant before the Participant’s Required Beginning Date (or to the Participant’s surviving Spouse before the date distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(i)), then the date distributions are considered to begin is the date distributions actually commence.

(3)

Forms of Distribution. Unless the Participant’s interest is distributed as an annuity purchased from an insurance company or in a single sum on or before the Required Beginning Date, as of the first Distribution Calendar Year distributions will be made in accordance with paragraphs (c) and (d). If the Participant’s interest is distributed as an annuity purchased from an insurance company, distributions thereunder will be made in accordance with the requirements of Code §401(a)(9) and the Regulations.

(c)

Required Minimum Distributions During the Participant’s Lifetime. The amount of required minimum distributions during a Participant’s lifetime will be determined as follows:

(1)

Amount of Required Distribution for Each Distribution Calendar Year. During the Participant’s lifetime, the minimum amount that will be distributed each Distribution Calendar Year is the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Participant’s age as of the Participant’s birthday in the Distribution Calendar Year; or (B) if the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary for the Distribution Calendar Year is the Participant’s Spouse, then the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the number in the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth in Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-9, using the Participant’s and Spouse’s attained ages as of the Participant’s and Spouse’s birthdays in the Distribution Calendar Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 88 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Required Minimum Distributions Continue Through Year of Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be determined under this paragraph (c) beginning with the first Distribution Calendar Year and up to and including the Distribution Calendar Year that includes the Participant’s date of death.

(d)

Required Minimum Distributions After the Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be made after a Participant’s death in accordance with the following provisions:

(1)

Death On or After Distributions Begins. If a Participant dies on or after the date distribution begins, then the amount of a required minimum distribution will be determined as follows:

(A)

Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is a Designated Beneficiary, then the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the longer of the remaining Life Expectancy of the Participant or the remaining Life Expectancy of the Designated Beneficiary, determined in accordance with the following provisions:

(i)

Calculation of Participant’s Remaining Life Expectancy. The Participant’s remaining Life Expectancy is calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year.

(ii)

Surviving Spouse Is Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, then the remaining Life Expectancy of the surviving Spouse is calculated for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death using the surviving Spouse’s age as of the Spouse’s birthday in that Distribution Calendar Year. For Distribution Calendar Years after the year of the surviving Spouse’s death, the remaining Life Expectancy of the surviving Spouse is calculated using the age of the surviving Spouse as of the Spouse’s birthday in the calendar year of the Spouse’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar year.

(iii)

Surviving Spouse Is Not Sole Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant’s surviving Spouse is not the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary, then the Designated Beneficiary’s remaining Life Expectancy is calculated using the age of the Beneficiary in the year following the year of the Participant’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar year.

(B)

No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after the year of the Participant’s death, then the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the Participant’s remaining Life Expectancy calculated using the age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one each subsequent year.

(2)

Death Before the Date Distribution Begins. If a Participant dies before the date distribution begins, then the amount of a required minimum distribution will be determined as follows:

(A)

Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If (i) the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit a Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary) to elect the Life Expectancy rule of subparagraph (b)(2)(B); (ii) the Participant dies before the date distributions begin; and (iii) there is a Designated Beneficiary, then the minimum amount that will be distributed for each Distribution Calendar Year after the year of the Participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant’s Account Balance by the remaining Life Expectancy of the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary, determined as provided in subparagraph (d)(1).

(B)

No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the Participant’s death, then distribution of the Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 89 of 114		July 2008

(C)

Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Are Required to Begin. If (i) the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to permit a Participant (or, if no election has been made by the Participant prior to the Participant’s death, then the Participant’s Designated Beneficiary) to elect the Life Expectancy rule of subparagraph (b)(2)(B); (ii) the Participant dies before the date distributions begin; (iii) the Participant’s surviving Spouse is the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary; and (iv) the surviving Spouse dies before distributions are required to begin to the surviving Spouse under subparagraph (b)(2)(B)(i), then this subparagraph (d)(2) will apply as if the surviving Spouse were the Participant.

5.10

Statutory Commencement of Benefits. Unless the Participant otherwise elects, distribution of a Participant’s benefit must begin no later than the 60th day after the latest of the close of the Plan Year in which the Participant (a) reaches the earlier of Age 65 or Normal Retirement Age; (b) reaches the 10th anniversary of the year that the Participant commenced Plan participation; or (c) Terminates Employment with the Employer. However, the failure of a Participant (and, with respect to any portion of the Participant’s Account which is subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, the Participant’s Spouse) to consent to a distribution while a benefit is Immediately Distributable will be deemed to be an election to defer the payment (or the commencement of the payment) of any benefit sufficient to satisfy this Section. In addition, if this Plan provides for an Early Retirement Date, then a Participant who satisfied the service requirement (if applicable) for Early Retirement Age prior to Termination of Employment will be entitled to receive his or her Vested Aggregate Account balance, if any, upon (a) the satisfaction of the age requirement (if applicable) for Early Retirement Age, and (b) reaching the Participant’s Early Retirement Date.

5.11

Post-Termination Earnings. As of the Valuation Date coinciding with or next following the date a Participant Terminates Employment with the Employer for any reason, the Administrator will, until a distribution is made to the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary in accordance with Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, or 5.5, direct the Trustee in a uniform nondiscriminatory manner to either (a) invest the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance determined as of such Valuation Date in a separate interest bearing account; or (b) leave the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance as part of the general Trust Fund. If the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance remains as part of the general Trust Fund, then such account will either (a) share in the allocation of net earnings and losses under Section 3.12 as a non-segregated account, or (b) be granted interest at a rate consistent with the interest bearing investments of the Trust Fund.

5.12

Distribution in the Event of Legal Incapacity. If any person entitled to benefits (the “Payee”) is under any legal incapacity by virtue of age or mental condition, then payments may be made in one or more of the following ways as directed by the Administrator: (a) to a court-appointed guardian of the Payee; (b) to the person or entity that has a valid power of attorney of the Payee or the Payee’s estate; (c) any other person or entity authorized under State (or Commonwealth) law to receive benefits on behalf of the Payee; or (d) if the Payee is a minor, to the authorized person or entity of the Payee (e.g., custodian or guardian) under any State’s (or Commonwealth’s) Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or Uniform Gifts to Minors Act.

5.13

Missing Payees and Unclaimed Benefits. With respect to a Participant or Beneficiary who has not claimed any benefit (the “missing payee”) to which such missing payee is entitled, and with respect to any Participant or Beneficiary who has not satisfied the administrative requirements for benefit payment, the Administrator may elect to either (a) to segregate the benefit into an interest bearing account, in which event an annual maintenance fee as may be set from time to time in a policy established by the Sponsoring Employer may be assessed against the segregated account; (b) subject to a policy established by the Administrator, distribute the benefit at any time in any manner which is sanctioned by the Internal Revenue Service and/or the Department of Labor, which may include (but not be limited to) (1) distribute the benefit in a automatic direct rollover to an individual retirement plan designated by the Administrator; such individual retirement plan, as defined in Code §7701(a)(37), may be either an individual retirement account within the meaning of Code §408(a) or an individual retirement annuity within the meaning of Code §408(b); or (2) distribute the benefit to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation or any other authorized Federal Department or agency; (c) distribute the benefit to any person or entity who is appointed under State (or Commonwealth) law to act as a duly authorized guardian, legal representative, conservator, or power of attorney; or (d) treat the entire benefit as a Forfeiture. If a missing payee whose benefit has been forfeited is located, or if a payee whose benefit has been forfeited for failure to satisfy the administrative requirements for benefit payment subsequently satisfies such administrative requirements and claims his or her benefit, and if the Plan has not terminated (or if the Plan has terminated, all benefits have not yet been paid), then the benefit will be restored. The Administrator, on a case by case basis, may elect to restore the benefit by the use of earnings from non-segregated assets of the Fund, by Employer contributions, by available Forfeitures of the Forfeiture Account, or by any combination thereof. However, if any such payee has not been located (or satisfied the administrative requirements for benefit payment) by the time the Plan terminates and all benefits have been distributed from the Plan, then the Forfeiture of such unpaid benefit will not be restored.

5.14

Direct Rollovers. This Section applies to distributions made after December 31, 2001. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a distributee’s election, a distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan, to have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution that is equal to at least $500 paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee in a direct rollover. If an eligible rollover distribution is less than $500, then a distributee may not make the election described in the preceding sentence to rollover a portion of the eligible rollover distribution.

(a)

Definition of Eligible Rollover Distribution. The term “eligible rollover distribution” means any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the distributee, except that an eligible rollover distribution does not include (1) any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the distributee and the distributee’s designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; (2) any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under Code §401(a)(9); (3) the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to Employer securities); (4) the portion of any distribution which is attributable to a financial hardship distribution; and (5) any other distribution that is reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year.

(b)

Voluntary and Mandatory Employee Contributions as Eligible Rollover Distributions. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, with respect to distributions made after December 31, 2001, an eligible rollover distribution may include either Voluntary Employee Contributions or Mandatory Employee Contributions which are not includible in gross income; however, the portion of an eligible rollover distribution attributable to Voluntary Employee Contributions or Mandatory Employee Contributions can be paid only to an individual retirement account or annuity described in Code §408(a) or (b), or to a qualified defined contribution plan described in Code §401(a) or §403(a) that agrees to separately account for amounts so transferred, including separately accounting for the portion of such distribution which is includible in gross income and the portion of such distribution which is not so includible. Furthermore, in accordance with the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002, when a distribution includes either Voluntary Employee Contributions or Mandatory Employee Contributions which are not includible in gross income, the amount that is rolled over will first be attributed to amounts includible in gross income.

(c)

Definition of Eligible Retirement Plan. With respect to distributions made after December 31, 2001, the term “eligible retirement plan” means an individual retirement account described in Code §408(a); an individual retirement annuity described in Code §408(b); an annuity plan described in Code §403(a); an annuity contract described in Code §403(b); a qualified trust described in Code §401(a); or an eligible deferred compensation plan under Code §457(b) which is maintained by a state, political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision of a state and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan. This definition of eligible retirement plan will also apply in the case of a distribution to a surviving Spouse, or to a Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relation order, as defined in Code §414(p); such distribution will be made in the same manner as if the Spouse was the Employee. If any portion of an eligible rollover distribution is attributable to payments or distributions from an individual’s Roth Elective Deferral Account (or the segregated portion of an individual’s Rollover Contribution Account that is attributable to Roth Elective Deferrals), then an eligible retirement plan with respect to such portion will only be either another plan’s designated Roth account of the individual from whose account the payments or distributions were made, or such individual’s Roth IRA.

(d)

Definition of Distributee. The term “distributee” means an Employee or former Employee. In addition, an Employee’s or former Employee’s surviving Spouse and an Employee’s or former Employee’s Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Code §414(p), are distributees with regard to the interest of the Spouse or former Spouse. With respect to any portion of a distribution that is made after December 31, 2006 from an eligible retirement plan of a deceased Employee, a distributee for purposes of a direct trustee-to trustee transfer will include an individual who is the Designated Beneficiary of the Employee and who is not the surviving Spouse of the Employee.

(e)

Definition of Direct Rollover. The term “Direct Rollover” means a payment by the Plan to the eligible retirement plan that is specified by the distributee.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 91 of 114		July 2008

(f)

Direct Rollover Rules for Roth Elective Deferral Account. The Plan will not provide for a direct rollover for distributions from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account if the amount of the distributions that are eligible rollover distributions are reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year. In addition, any distribution from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account is not taken into account in determining whether distributions from the other Participant’s Account(s) are reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year. Furthermore, the provision of this Section that allows a Participant to elect a direct rollover of only a portion of an eligible rollover distribution (but only if the amount rolled over is at least $500) is applied by treating any amount distributed from the Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account as a separate distribution from any amount distributed from the other Participant’s Account(s) in the Plan, even if the amounts are distributed at the same time.

5.15

Distribution of Property. The determination to pay any distribution in property will be made by the Administrator in its sole discretion applied in a nondiscriminatory manner that does not discriminate in favor of Participants who are HCEs. However, if this is an amended or restated Plan, then the payee will have the right to elect a full or partial distribution in property pursuant to and limited by the provisions of Section 11.1(e).

5.16

Financial Hardship Distributions. If the Plan is a profit sharing plan or a 401(k) Plan, and if elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement, then a Participant who is still an Employee may make a written request to the Administrator that a distribution be made to the Participant because of his or her immediate and heavy financial hardship. Any such distribution will be made in accordance with the provisions of an administrative policy regarding financial hardship distributions that is promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator; such administrative policy will include (but not be limited to): (a) the Participant’s accounts (or sub-accounts) that are available for financial hardship distributions; (b) the maximum percentages of such accounts (or sub-accounts) that may be distributed for financial hardships; and (c) the standards that will be used for determining whether a Participant has incurred a financial hardship for purposes of financial hardship distributions from accounts (or sub-accounts) other than Elective Deferrals. Such standards must be based on non-discriminatory and objective criteria. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then any distribution under this Section of a Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferrals may include any allocable earnings that are credited to such Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account as of the later of December 31, 1988 or the end of the last Plan Year ending before July 1, 1989, any Qualified Non-Elective Contributions (and allocable earnings) as of the later of December 31, 1988 or the end of the last Plan Year ending before July 1, 1989, and any Qualified Matching Contributions (and allocable earnings) as of the later of December 31, 1988 or the end of the last Plan Year ending before July 1, 1989. If the Normal Form of Distribution as elected in the Adoption Agreement is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, then any distribution under this Section is subject to the Spousal consent requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and §417, pursuant to Section 5.8. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan, then any financial hardship distribution of Elective Deferrals from the Plan will comply with the following provisions:

(a)

Immediate and Heavy Financial Needs. The following are the only financial needs considered immediate and heavy: (1) expenses incurred or necessary for medical care, described in Code §213(d), of the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or dependents; (2) the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Employee; (3) payment of tuition and related educational fees for the next 12 months of post-secondary education for the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse, the Employee’s children or the Employee’s dependents; (4) payments necessary to prevent the eviction of the Employee from, or a foreclosure on the mortgage of, the Employee’s principal residence; (5) payments for funeral or burial expenses for the Employee’s deceased parent, Spouse, children, or dependents (as defined in Code §152, and for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2005, without regard to Code §152(d)(1)(B)); or (6) expenses for the repair of damage to the Employee’s principal residence that would qualify for a casualty loss deduction under Code §165 (determined without regard to whether the loss exceeds 10% of adjusted gross income). Clauses (5) and (6) above only apply to Plan Years beginning after 2005.

(b)

Necessary to Satisfy an Immediate and Heavy Financial Need. A financial hardship distribution will be considered as necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Employee only if (1) The distribution is not in excess of the amount of the immediate and heavy financial need (including amounts necessary to pay any federal, state or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution); (2) the Employee has obtained all distributions, other than financial hardship distributions, and all nontaxable loans under all plans maintained by the Employer; and (3) effective as of January 1, 2002, all plans maintained by the Employer provide that the Employee’s Elective Deferrals (and Employee Contributions) will be suspended for 6 months after the receipt of the financial hardship distribution.

5.17

In-Service Distributions. If the Plan is a profit sharing plan or a 401(k) plan, and if elected in the Adoption Agreement, and subject to the minimum Age and/or Service and/or participation requirements elected in the Adoption Agreement, a Participant who is still an Employee may request in writing to the Administrator that up to 100% of the Participant’s Vested Interest in the accounts elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement be distributed to the Participant, subject to the following provisions:


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 92 of 114		July 2008

(a)

Amount and Form of Distribution. The amount of a Participant’s Vested Interest for distribution under this Section will be determined as of the Valuation Date which coincides with or immediately precedes the date of distribution. Any distribution under this Section will be made to the Participant in a single payment; however, if the Normal Form of Distribution as elected in the Adoption Agreement is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, then any distribution under this Section is subject to the Spousal consent requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and §417, pursuant to Section 5.8. When feasible, any such distribution will be paid at the Participant’s direction within 60 days of his or her request, but not later than a date as soon as administratively practical following the next Valuation date after the Administrator’s receipt of such request.

(b)

Frequency of In-Service Distributions. The frequency of in-service distributions to any Participant under this Section will be determined pursuant to an administrative policy regarding in-service distributions that is promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator.

(c)

Provisions Applicable to 401(k) Plans. If the Plan is a 401(k) plan, the minimum attained age requirement which can be elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Adoption Agreement with respect to the distribution of amounts attributable to a Participant’s Elective Deferrals, QNECs, QMACs, ADP Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions and/or ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions is age 59 ¹ / ₂ .

(d)

Participants Who Are Not 100% Vested. If a distribution is made under this Section at a time when the Participant has less than a 100% Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution sub-account and Matching Contribution sub-account and such Vested Interest may increase, a separate account will be established for the Participant’s Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution sub-account balance and the Participant’s Matching Contribution sub-account balance at the time of distribution, and at any relevant time the Participant’s Vested Interest in the separate account will be equal to an amount (“X”) determined by the following formula: X = P(AB + (R x D)) - (R x D). In applying the formula, “P” is the Vested Interest at the relevant time, “AB” is the respective account balance at the relevant time, “D” is the amount of the distribution, and “R” is the ratio of the respective account balance at the relevant time to the respective account balance after distribution.

(e)

Restriction on Certain Transfer Contribution Accounts. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, no pre-retirement distribution can be made under this Section with respect to Transfer Contribution Accounts (including post-transfer earnings thereon) that are transferred into this Plan from a money purchase plan or target benefit plan (other than any portion thereof which is attributable to Voluntary Employee Contributions). Furthermore, if the Transfer Contributions are Elective Deferrals (including QNECs, QMACs, and ADP Safe Harbor Contributions) which are transferred to this Plan in a direct or indirect trustee-to-trustee transfer from another qualified plan and which are subject to the limitations in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d), then the distribution of such Transfer Contributions (including post-transfer earnings thereon) will be subject to the limitations in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d).

5.18

Distribution of Excess Elective Deferrals. Excess Elective Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, will be distributed no later than April 15th to any Participant to whose account Excess Elective Deferrals were allocated for the preceding taxable year or calendar year and who claims Excess Elective Deferrals for such taxable year or calendar year. Distribution of Excess Elective Deferrals will be made in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Assignment of Excess Elective Deferrals. A Participant may assign to this Plan any Excess Elective Deferrals made during a taxable year of the Participant by notifying the Administrator on or before March 15th (or such later date as established by the Administrator) of the subsequent year of the amount of the Excess Elective Deferrals to be assigned to the Plan. A Participant will be deemed to notify the Administrator of any Excess Elective Deferrals that arise by taking into account only those Elective Deferrals made to this Plan and any other plan, contract or arrangement of the Sponsoring Employer. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Elective Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss allocable to such Excess Elective Deferrals, will be distributed no later than April 15 to any Participant to whose account Excess Elective Deferrals were assigned for the preceding year and who claims Excess Elective Deferrals for such taxable year or calendar year.

(b)

Determination of Income or Loss. Excess Elective Deferrals will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the last day of the Plan Year, without considering the gap period or any adjustment for income or loss during the gap period (the period between the end of the Participant’s taxable year and the date of distribution). The Plan may use any reasonable method for computing income or loss allocable to Excess Elective Deferrals, provided such method is used consistently for all Participants and for all corrective distributions under the Plan for the Plan Year, and is used by the Plan for allocating income or loss to Participants’ Accounts.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 93 of 114		July 2008

(c)

Source of Distribution. Distribution of Excess Elective Deferrals will be taken from a Participant’s investment options (if any) based on rules established by the Administrator. In addition, for years beginning after 2005, unless a different rule is established by the Administrator, distribution of Excess Elective Deferrals will first be made from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account before the Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account, to the extent Roth Elective Deferrals were made for the year, unless the Administrator permits the Participant to specify otherwise.

5.19

Distribution of Excess Contributions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, will be distributed no later than 12 months after a Plan Year to Participants to whose accounts such Excess Contributions were allocated for such Plan Year, except to the extent such Excess Contributions are classified as Catch-up Contributions.

(a)

Allocation to Highly Compensated Employees. Excess Contributions will be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest amounts of Employer contributions taken into account in calculating the ADP Test for the Plan Year in which the Excess Contributions arose, beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the largest amount of such Employer contributions and continuing in descending order until all the Excess Contributions have been allocated. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the “largest amount” is determined by including and excluding such Employer contributions actually paid over to the Trust on behalf of such Participant for the Plan Year that are described in Section 1.6. To the extent a Highly Compensated Employee has not reached his or her Catch-Up Contribution Limit, Excess Contributions allocated to such Highly Compensated Employee are Catch-Up Contributions and will not be treated as Excess Contributions. Excess Contributions will be treated as Annual Additions, even if such Excess Contributions are distributed.

(b)

Distribution of Excess Contributions After 2 ¹ / ₂ Months. If Excess Contributions (other than Catch-up Contributions) are distributed more than ¹ / ₂ months (or such later time as may be granted by future governmental guidance) after the last day of the Plan Year in which such Excess Contributions arose, then a 10% excise tax will be imposed on the Sponsoring Employer with respect to such Excess Contributions.

(c)

Determination of Net Income or Loss. For Plan Years beginning prior to January 1, 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), Excess Contributions will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the end of the Plan Year and, at the discretion of the Administrator, may be adjusted for income or loss during the period, if any, between the end of the Plan Year and the actual date of distribution (the “gap period”). However, effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment implementing the final §401(k) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), Excess Contributions will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the end of the Plan Year and during the gap period. Any adjustment for income or loss during the gap period will be allocated in a consistent manner to all Participants, and to all corrective distributions made for the Plan Year, and will be the amount determined by one of the methods set forth either in subparagraph (1), subparagraph (2), or subparagraph (3) below, as elected by the Administrator:

(1)

Method 1. The amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) for the Plan Year and the gap period, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s Excess Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account balance (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) as of the beginning of the Plan Year plus any Elective Deferrals (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) allocated to the Participant during the Plan Year and gap period.

(2)

Method 2. The sum of (A) and (B): (A) the amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) for the Plan Year, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s Excess Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account balance (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) as of the beginning of the Plan Year plus any Elective Deferrals (and QNECs or QMACs, or both, if such contributions are used in the ADP Test) allocated to the Participant during such Plan Year; plus (B) the amount of gap period income or loss equal to 10% of the amount determined under clause (A) above multiplied by the number of whole months between the end of the Plan Year and the distribution date, counting the month of distribution if the distribution occurs after the 15th day of such month.

(3)

Method 3. The amount determined by any reasonable method of allocating income or loss to the Participant’s Excess Contributions for the Plan Year and the gap period, provided the method used is the same method used for allocating income or losses to Participants’ Accounts. This Plan will not fail to use a reasonable method for computing the income allocable to Excess Contributions merely because the income allocable to such Excess Contributions is determined on a date that is no more than 7 days before the distribution.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 94 of 114		July 2008

(d)

Accounting for Excess Contributions. Excess Contributions allocated to a Participant will be distributed from the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account and QMAC Account in proportion to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals and QMACs (to the extent used in the ADP Test) for the Plan Year. Excess Contributions will be distributed from the Participant’s QNEC Account only to the extent that the Excess Contributions exceed the balance in the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account and QMAC Account.

(e)

Source and Ordering of Distribution. Distribution of Excess Contributions will be taken from a Participant’s investment options (if any) based on rules established by the Administrator. For purposes of determining the sources of a distribution of Excess Contributions, the sources will be distributed in the following order (unless a policy for the order of the sources to distribute Excess Contributions is established by the Administrator and such policy will control): (1) unmatched Elective Deferrals, (2) matched Elective Deferrals, (3) Qualified Matching Contributions (that are tested in the ACP Test and that are utilized in (or shifted into) the ADP Test), and (4) Qualified Non-Elective Contributions (to the extent that such contributions are utilized in the ADP Test). In addition, for Plan Years beginning after 2005, unless a different rule is established by the Administrator, distribution of Elective Deferrals that are Excess Contributions will first be made from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account before the Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account, to the extent that Roth Elective Deferrals were made for the Plan Year, unless the Administrator permits the Participant to specify otherwise.

5.20

Distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions. Excess Aggregate Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, will be forfeited, if forfeitable, or if not forfeitable, distributed no later than 12 months after a Plan Year to Participants to whose Accounts such Excess Aggregate Contributions were allocated for such Plan Year. Distribution will be made in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Allocation to Highly Compensated Employees. Excess Aggregate Contributions will be allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest Contribution Percentage Amounts taken into account in calculating the ACP Test for the Plan Year in which the Excess Aggregate Contributions arose, beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the largest amount of such Contribution Percentage Amounts and continuing in descending order until all the Excess Aggregate Contributions have been allocated. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the “largest amount” is determined by including and excluding such Employer contributions and allocations that are described in the definition of “Contribution Percentage Amounts.” Excess Aggregate Contributions will be treated as Annual Additions, even if such Excess Aggregate Contributions are distributed.

(b)

Distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions After 2 ¹ / ₂ Months. If Excess Aggregate Contributions are distributed more than 2 ¹ / ₂ months after the last day of the Plan Year in which such Excess Aggregate Contributions arose, then a ten percent (10%) excise tax will be imposed on the Sponsoring Employer maintaining the Plan with respect to such Excess Aggregate Contributions.

(c)

Forfeitures of Excess Aggregate Contributions. Forfeitures of Excess Aggregate Contributions will be used and/or allocated pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.13(b).

(d)

Determination of Net Income or Loss. For Plan Years beginning prior to January 1, 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment implementing the final §401(m) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), Excess Aggregate Contributions will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the end of the Plan Year and, at the discretion of the Administrator, may be adjusted for income or loss during the period, if any, between the end of the Plan Year and the actual date of distribution (the “gap period”). However, effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2006 (or such earlier effective date as may be provided in a separate amendment implementing the final §401(m) Regulations and as permitted by such Regulations), Excess Aggregate Contributions will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the end of the Plan Year and during the gap period. Any adjustment for income or loss during the gap period will be allocated in a consistent manner to all Participants, and to all corrective distributions made for the Plan Year, and will be the amount determined by one of the methods set forth either in subparagraph (1), subparagraph (2), or subparagraph (3) below, as elected by the Administrator:

(1)

Method 1. The amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contributions, Mandatory Employee Contributions, Matching Contributions (if not used in the ADP Test), QNECs (if not used in the ADP Test) and, to the extent applicable, Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year and the gap period, by a fraction, the numerator of which is such Participant’s Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Account balance(s) attributable to Contribution Percentage Amounts as of the beginning of the Plan Year, plus any additional amounts attributable to Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to the Participant during such Plan Year and the gap period.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 95 of 114		July 2008

(2)

Method 2. The sum of (A) and (B) as follows: (A) the amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contributions, Mandatory Employee Contributions, Matching Contributions (if not used in the ADP Test), QNECs (if not used in the ADP Test) and, to the extent applicable, Elective Deferrals for the Plan Year, by a fraction, the numerator of which is such Participant’s Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Account balance(s) attributable to Contribution Percentage Amounts as of the beginning of the Plan Year, plus any additional amounts attributable to Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to the Participant during such Plan Year; plus (B) the amount of gap period income or loss equal to 10% of the amount determined under clause (A) above multiplied by the number of whole months between the end of the Plan Year and the distribution date, counting the month of distribution if the distribution occurs after the 15th day of such month.

(3)

Method 3. The amount determined by any reasonable method of allocating income or loss to the Participant’s Excess Aggregate Contributions for the Plan Year and for the gap period, provided the method used is the same method used for allocating income or losses to Participants’ Accounts. This Plan will not fail to use a reasonable method for computing the income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions merely because the income allocable to such Excess Aggregate Contributions is determined on a date that is no more than 7 days before the distribution.

(e)

Accounting for Excess Aggregate Contributions. Excess Aggregate Contributions that are allocated to a Participant will be forfeited, if forfeitable, or will be distributed on a pro-rata basis from the Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account, Mandatory Employee Contribution Account, Matching Contribution Account and Qualified Matching Contribution Account (and if applicable, from the Participant’s Qualified Non-Elective Contribution Account, Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account, Roth Elective Deferral Account, or any combination thereof).

(f)

Source and Ordering of Distribution. Distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions will be taken from a Participant’s investment options (if any) based on rules established by the Administrator. For purposes of determining the sources of a distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions, the sources will be distributed in the following order (unless a policy for the order of the sources to distribute Excess Aggregate Contributions is established by the Administrator and such policy will control): (1) unmatched Voluntary Employee Contributions, (2) unmatched Mandatory Employee Contributions, (3) unmatched Elective Deferrals (that are tested in the ADP Test and that are utilized in (or shifted into) the ACP Test), (4) matched Voluntary Employee Contributions and the Matching Contributions that relate to such Voluntary Employee Contributions, (5) matched Mandatory Employee Contributions and the Matching Contributions that relate to such Mandatory Employee Contributions, (6) matched Elective Deferrals (that are tested in the ADP Test and that are utilized in (or shifted into) the ACP Test) and the Matching Contributions that relate to such Elective Deferrals, (7) Non-Safe Harbor Matching Contributions, (8) ACP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (to the extent such contributions are subject to the ACP Test), (9) ADP Safe Harbor Matching Contributions (to the extent such contributions are subject to the ACP Test), (10) Qualified Matching Contributions, and (11) Qualified Non-Elective Contributions (to the extent that such contributions are utilized in the ACP Test). With respect to Elective Deferrals that are tested in the ADP Test, that are utilized in (or shifted into) the ACP Test, and that become Excess Aggregate Contributions, then for Plan Years beginning after 2005, unless a different rule is established by the Administrator, distribution of Elective Deferrals that are Excess Aggregate Contributions will first be made from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account before the Participant’s Pre-Tax Elective Deferral Account, to the extent that Roth Elective Deferrals were made for the Plan Year, unless the Administrator permits the Participant to specify otherwise.

5.21

Distribution of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account. An Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account will be distributed from the Plan in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Time of Distribution. An Employee may request in writing a withdrawal of all or any portion of his or her Rollover Contribution Account at any time prior to becoming a Participant, and thereafter upon the earlier of (1) the date the Employee is entitled to a distribution of his or her Participant’s benefits under the provisions of Article 5, or (2) the soonest possible administratively practical date after the Participant’s Termination of Employment. In addition, an Employee may also withdraw all or any portion of his or her Rollover Contribution Account at such other time as elected in the Adoption Agreement. The Administrator may require advance notice of a reasonable period not to exceed 60 days prior to the requested date of withdrawal. Any amount withdrawn can only be redeposited to the Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account if so elected in the Adoption Agreement and if the withdrawn distribution continues to be deemed a Rollover (except for the fact that the amount originated from this Plan). A withdrawal of all or any portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account will not prevent an Employee from accruing any future benefit attributable to Employer contributions. The Administrator may establish rules or procedures regarding withdrawals from an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 96 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Spousal Consent Requirements Upon Withdrawal. The following provisions apply to the requirement of consent by the Employee’s Spouse with respect to a withdrawal of all or any portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account:

(1)

(2)

(c)

Form of Distribution. The following provisions apply to the form of distribution with respect to any withdrawal from the Rollover Contribution Account:

(1)

Normal Form of Distribution Is a QJSA. If the Plan is a money purchase pension plan or the Normal Form of Distribution as elected in the Adoption Agreement is a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, then a withdrawal of all or any portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account will be subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity (QJSA) and Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity (QPSA) requirements of this Article 5 (even if the Rollover Contribution was not previously subject to the QJSA and QPSA rules); a withdrawal of all or any portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account may also be made in a lump-sum or in the same manner as the Participant Account under the other provisions of this Article 5, subject to the Spousal consent requirements of paragraph (b)(1).

(2)

Normal Form of Distribution Is Not a QJSA. If the Plan is not a money purchase pension plan or the Normal Form of Distribution as elected in the Adoption Agreement is not a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, then a withdrawal of all or any portion of an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account prior to the time that the Employee is entitled to a distribution of his or her Participant Account will only be distributed in a single payment. Any amount remaining in an Employee’s Rollover Contribution Account at the time the Employee is entitled to a distribution of his or her Participant Account will be distributed, at the election of the Participant, in a lump-sum or in the same manner as the Participant Account under the other provisions of this Article 5.

5.22

Distribution of a Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account. A Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account will be distributed from the Plan at the same time and in the same manner as the Participant’s Account is distributed under Section 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, or 5.4, subject to the following rules:

(a)

Spousal Consent Requirements Upon Withdrawal. The following provisions apply to the requirement of consent by the Participant’s Spouse with respect to a withdrawal of all or any portion of a Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account:

(1)

Transfer Was Subject to Code §401(a)(11). If the Transfer Contribution was a direct or indirect transfer as defined in Code §401(a)(11) from a defined benefit plan, a money purchase plan, a target benefit plan, a stock bonus plan, or a profit sharing plan that provided for a life annuity form of payment to the Participant, then a withdrawal of all or any portion of such Transfer Contribution (and post-transfer earnings thereon) will be subject to the Spousal consent requirements set forth in Section 5.8.

(2)

Transfer Was Not Subject to Code §401(a)(11). If the Transfer Contribution was not a direct or indirect transfer as defined in Code §401(a)(11) from a defined benefit plan; a money purchase plan; a target benefit plan; or a stock bonus plan or a profit sharing plan that provided for a joint and survivor annuity or a life annuity form of payment to the Participant, then all or any portion of such Transfer Contribution (and post-transfer earnings thereon) can be withdrawn without the consent of the Participant’s Spouse.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 97 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Form of Distribution. A withdrawal of all or any portion of a Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account will be made in the same manner as the Participant’s Account under the other provisions of this Article 5, subject to the Spousal consent requirements set forth in paragraph (a) above and Section 5.8. However, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence to the contrary, if the Transfer Contribution was a direct or indirect transfer as defined in Code §401(a)(11) from a defined benefit plan; a money purchase plan; a target benefit plan; or a stock bonus plan or a profit sharing plan that provided for a joint and survivor annuity or a life annuity form of payment to the Participant, then regardless of the Normal Form of Distribution, a withdrawal of all or any portion of such Transfer Contribution will be subject to the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity and Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity requirements of Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, and will be distributed in accordance with following provisions:

(1)

Distributions Other Than Death. If the Participant is married on the Annuity Starting Date and has not died before such date, then such portion of the Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account will be distributed in the form of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity. If the Participant is unmarried on the Annuity Starting Date and has not died before such date, then such portion of the Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account will be distributed as a life annuity. If a Participant elects not to receive the annuity form of payment described above, then such portion of the Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account will be distributed in the manner described in Sections 5.1 through 5.4, as applicable. Any such election by a Participant not to receive the annuity form of benefit described in this paragraph must be made in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 5.8(b).

(2)

Distributions Upon Death. Notwithstanding any other Beneficiary designation made by a Participant, if a Participant is married on the date of his or her death and dies before the Annuity Starting Date, then with respect to such portion of a deceased Participant’s Transfer Contribution Account, the Participant’s surviving Spouse will receive a minimum death benefit as a Qualified Pre-Retirement Survivor Annuity unless such annuity has been waived under Section 5.8(b) of the Plan, in which event such death benefit will be distributed to the surviving Spouse in the manner described in Section 5.2.

(c)

Special Rule for Withdrawal of Elective Deferral Transfers. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, if the Transfer Contributions are Elective Deferrals (including QNECs, QMACs, and ADP Safe Harbor Contributions) which are transferred to this Plan in a direct or indirect trustee-to-trustee transfer from another qualified plan and which are subject to the limitations in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d), then the distribution of such Transfer Contributions (including post-transfer earnings thereon) will be subject to the limitations in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d).

5.23

Distribution of Voluntary Employee Contributions. A Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contributions will be distributed from the Plan in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Time of Distribution. A Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account will be distributed no later than the earlier of (1) the date the Employee is entitled to a distribution of his or her Participant’s Account balance under the provisions of Article 5, or (2) the soonest possible administratively practical date after the Participant’s Termination of Employment. In addition, an Employee may also withdraw all or any portion of his or her Voluntary Employee Contribution Account at such other time as elected in the Adoption Agreement. The Administrator may require advance notice of a reasonable period not to exceed 60 days prior to the requested date of withdrawal. Withdrawals from a Voluntary Employee Contribution Account will not prohibit a Participant from accruing any future benefit from Employer contributions. A Participant’s request to make a withdrawal from his or her Voluntary Employee Contribution Account must satisfy the applicable Spousal consent requirements in Section 5.8. A withdrawal attributable to pre-1987 Voluntary Employee Contributions need not include earnings thereon.

(b)

Special Rule for Withdrawal of Post-1986 Contributions. Any distribution made under paragraph (a) which is attributable to post-1986 Voluntary Employee Contributions can only be made along with a portion of the earnings thereon, such earnings to be determined by the following formula: DA [1-(V - V+E)]. For purposes of applying the aforementioned formula, the term DA means the distribution amount, the term V means the amount of Voluntary Employee Contributions, and the term V+E means the amount of Voluntary Employee Contributions plus the earnings attributable thereto.

5.24

Distribution of Mandatory Employee Contributions. A Participant’s Mandatory Employee Contributions will only be distributed after his or her Termination of Employment, will be used to provide additional benefits to the Participant, and will be distributed in the time and manner described in the other provisions of this Article 5.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 98 of 114		July 2008

Article 6

Code §415 Limitations

6.1

Maximum Annual Additions. Subject to Sections 6.2 and 6.3, the maximum Annual Additions made to a Participant’s various accounts maintained under the Plan for any Limitation Year will not exceed the lesser of the Dollar Limitation of paragraph (a) or the Compensation Limitation of paragraph (b) below, as follows:

(a)

Dollar Limitation. For Limitation Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, the Dollar Limitation is $40,000 as adjusted in accordance with Code §415(d).

(b)

Compensation Limitation. For Limitation Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, the Compensation Limitation is an amount equal to 100% of the Participant’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation. However, this limitation will not apply to any contribution made for medical benefits within the meaning of Code §401(h) or Code §419A(f)(2) after Termination of Employment which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition under Code §415(l)(1) or Code §419A(d)(2).

6.2

Adjustments to Maximum Annual Additions. In applying the limitation on Annual Additions set forth in Section 6.1, the following adjustments must be made:

(a)

Short Limitation Year. If a Limitation Year is less than 12 months, then the Dollar Limitation of Section 6.1(a) will be adjusted by multiplying the Dollar Limitation by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months (including any fractional parts of a month) in the short Limitation Year and the denominator of which is 12.

(b)

Multiple Defined Contribution Plans. If a Participant participates in multiple defined contribution plans sponsored by the Employer which have different Anniversary Dates, the maximum Annual Addition in this Plan for the Limitation Year will be reduced by the Annual Additions credited to the Participant’s accounts in the other defined contribution plans during the Limitation Year unless otherwise elected in the Adoption Agreement. If a Participant participates in multiple defined contribution plans sponsored by the Employer which have the same Anniversary Date, then (1) if only one of the plans is subject to Code §412, Annual Additions will first be credited to the Participant’s accounts in the plan subject to Code §412; and (2) if none of the plans are subject to Code §412, the maximum Annual Addition in this Plan for a given Limitation Year will either (A) equal the product of (i) the maximum Annual Addition for such Limitation Year minus any other Annual Additions previously credited to the Participant’s account(s), multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Annual Additions which would be credited to a Participant’s accounts hereunder without regard to the Annual Additions limitation of Section 6.1 and the denominator of which is the Annual Additions for all plans described in this paragraph, or (B) be reduced by the Annual Additions credited to the Participant’s accounts in the other defined contribution plans for such Limitation Year, or (C) be reduced as elected otherwise in the Adoption Agreement.

6.3

Multiple Plans and Multiple Employers. All defined contribution plans (whether terminated or not) sponsored by the Employer will be treated as one defined contribution plan. In addition, all Affiliated Employers will be considered a single Employer.

6.4

Adjustment for Excess Annual Additions. For any Limitation Year, if the Annual Additions allocated to a Participant’s Account exceeds the Annual Additions limitation of Section 6.1 because of an allocation of Forfeitures, a reasonable error in estimating a Participant’s Compensation, a reasonable error in determining the amount of elective contributions (within the meaning of Code §402(g)(3)), or because of other limited facts and circumstances that the Commissioner finds justify the availability of the rules set forth in this Section, then such Participant’s Account will be adjusted as follows in order to reduce the Excess Annual Additions:

(a)

Catch-Up Contributions. First, if Catch-Up Contributions are permitted, a catch-up eligible Participant who has Excess Annual Additions which include Elective Deferrals and who has not reached his or her Catch-Up Contribution Limit can recharacterize such Excess Annual Additions as Catch-Up Contributions.

(b)

Return of Employee Contributions and Elective Deferrals. Then, Voluntary Employee Contributions, if any, then Mandatory Employee Contributions, if any, and then, the amount of Elective Deferrals and corresponding Employer Matching Contributions, if any, to the extent that they would reduce the Excess Annual Additions, will be calculated. Such Voluntary Employee Contributions, Mandatory Employee Contributions, and Elective Deferrals plus attributable gains, will be distributed to the Participant. Any Employer Matching Contribution amount as determined above will be applied as described in (c) or (d) below, depending on whether the Participant is covered by the Plan at the end of the Limitation Year.

(c)

Excess Used To Reduce Employer Contributions If Participant Is Still Covered By The Plan. If, after the application of paragraphs (a) and (b), Excess Annual Additions still exist and the Participant is covered by the Plan at the end of the Limitation Year, the Excess Annual Additions in the Participant’s Account will be used to reduce Employer contributions (including any allocation of Forfeitures) for such Participant in the next Limitation Year, and in each succeeding Limitation Year if necessary.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 99 of 114		July 2008

(d)

Excess Used To Reduce Employer Contributions If Participant Is Not Covered By The Plan. If, after the application of paragraphs (a) and (b), Excess Annual Additions still exist and the Participant is not covered by the Plan at the end of a Limitation Year, the Excess Annual Additions will be held unallocated in a suspense account. The suspense account will be applied to reduce future Employer contributions (including the allocation of any Forfeitures) for all remaining Participants in the next Limitation Year, and in each succeeding Limitation Year if necessary.

(e)

Suspense Account. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a Limitation Year pursuant to this Section, then such suspense account will not participate in the allocation of the Trust’s investment gains and losses. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a particular Limitation Year, then all amounts in the suspense account must be allocated and reallocated to Participants’ Accounts before any Employer Contributions or any Employee contributions may be made to the Plan for that Limitation Year. A suspense account may not be distributed to Participants or former Participants.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 100 of 114		July 2008

Article 7

Loans, Insurance and Directed Investments

7.1

Loans to Participants. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, loans may be made from the Trust Fund to Participants and Beneficiaries. If loans are available, then a Participant or Beneficiary may make application to the Administrator requesting a loan. The Administrator will have the sole right to approve or disapprove the application. All loans must be evidenced by a legally enforceable agreement (which may include more than one document) set forth in writing or in such other form as may be approved by the Internal Revenue Service, and the terms of such agreement must specify the amount and term of the loan, and the repayment schedule. Loans will only be made in accordance with a separate written loan program which satisfies the requirements of Code §72(p) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, and the following provisions:

(a)

General Rules. Loans (1) will be made available to all Participants and Beneficiaries on a reasonably equivalent, non-discriminatory basis; (2) will not be made available to HCEs in an amount greater than the amount made available to other Employees; (3) must be adequately secured and bear a reasonable interest rate; and (4) cannot exceed the present value of the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account.

(b)

Spousal Consent. If the Plan is subject to Code §401(a)(11) and Code §417, then a Participant must obtain the consent of his or her Spouse, if any, as set forth in Section 5.8 of the Plan, Code §401(a)(11), and Code §417 in order to use the remaining Vested Interest of the Participant’s Account balance as security for the loan. Spousal consent will be obtained no earlier than the beginning of the 90-day period that ends on the date on which the loan is to be so secured. The consent must be in writing, must acknowledge the effect of the loan, and must be witnessed by a Plan representative or notary public. Such consent will thereafter be binding upon the consenting Spouse or any subsequent Spouse with respect to that loan. A new consent will be required if the remaining Participant’s Account balance is used for renegotiation, extension, renewal, or other revision of the loan. If valid Spousal consent has been obtained in accordance with this paragraph, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance that is used as a security interest held by the Plan by reason of a loan that is outstanding to the Participant will be taken into account in determining the amount of the Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance payable at the time of death or distribution, but only if the reduction is used as repayment of the loan. If less than 100% of the Participant’s Account (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) is payable to the surviving Spouse, then the death benefit will be adjusted by first reducing the Vested portion of the Participant’s Account balance by the amount of the security that is used for the loan.

(c)

Maximum Loan Amount. No loan to a Participant or Beneficiary can be made to the extent such loan, when added to the outstanding balance of all other loans to the Participant or Beneficiary, would exceed the lesser of (1) $50,000 reduced by the excess (if any) of the highest outstanding balance of loans during the one-year period ending on the day before the loan is made, over the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan on the date the loan is made; or (2) one-half the present value of the Vested Portion of the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account. However, notwithstanding the limitation in clause (2) of the preceding sentence, the written loan policy may permit a Participant whose Vested Aggregate Account balance is $20,000 or less to borrow an amount that does not exceed the lesser of $10,000 or 100% of the Participant’s Vested Aggregate Account balance if adequate security is provided on the loan amount in excess of that determined under clause (2). For the purpose of the limitations set forth in this paragraph, all loans from the plans (including this Plan) of the Sponsoring Employer and other Affiliated Employers are aggregated.

(d)

Minimum Loan Amount. The written loan policy may provide for a minimum loan not to exceed $1,000.

(e)

Loan Repayments. Any loan by its terms will require that repayment (of both principal and interest) be amortized in level payments, not less frequently than quarterly, over a period not extending beyond five years from the date of the loan, unless such loan is used to acquire a dwelling unit which within a reasonable time (determined at the time the loan is made) will be used as the principal residence of the Participant. In the event of default, then foreclosure on the note and attachment of security will not occur until a distributable event occurs in the Plan. However, notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, loan repayments will be suspended as permitted under Code §414(u)(4).

(f)

Assignments and Pledges Treated as Loans. An assignment or pledge of any portion of the Participant’s interest in the Plan and a loan, pledge, or assignment with respect to any insurance contract purchased under the Plan, will be treated as a loan under this Section.

(g)

Certain Restrictions Eliminated. Effective for Plan loans made after December 31, 2001, any prior Plan provisions that prohibited or otherwise restricted loans to any owner-employee (as defined in Code §401(c)(3)) or shareholder-employee (as defined in Code §4975(f)(6)(C)) will cease to apply. For this purpose, a shareholder-employee means an Employee or officer of an electing small business (Subchapter S) corporation who owns (or is considered as owning within the meaning of Code §318(a)(1)), on any day during the taxable year of such corporation, more than 5% of the outstanding stock of the corporation.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 101 of 114		July 2008

7.2

Insurance on Participants. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, and pursuant to any rules or procedures that are promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator, the Trustee may purchase life insurance Policies on the life of a Participant and/or the Participant’s Spouse in accordance with the following:

(a)

Ownership of Policies. All life insurance Policies will be vested exclusively in the Trustee and will be payable to the Trustee, subject to the rights of the Beneficiaries hereunder unless the Trustee permits the designation of a named beneficiary other than the Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Trustee who is also a Participant may, except in a fiduciary capacity, exercise any ownership rights with respect to any Policy insuring the life of such Trustee in his or her capacity as a Participant.

(b)

Primary Limit on Premiums. At the direction of the Administrator and/or the Participant, the Trustee will purchase Policies on the life of the Participant, provided that the aggregate premiums on ordinary life Policies must be less than 50% of the Participant’s Account balance; (2) the aggregate premiums on term Policies, universal Policies and all other Policies which are not ordinary life insurance Policies must be less than 25% of the Participant’s Account balance; and (3) the sum of one-half of the premiums on ordinary life insurance Policies and the total of all other life insurance premiums cannot exceed 25% of the Participant’s Account balance. For purposes of this Section, an ordinary life insurance Policy is an insurance policy that has a non-decreasing death benefit and also has a non-increasing premium.

(c)

Alternate Limit on Premiums for Money Purchase Plans. Notwithstanding paragraph (b) above, if this is a money purchase pension plan, a Participant may, with the consent of the Administrator, elect that up to 100% of his or her Rollover Contribution Account and Voluntary Employee Contribution Account be used to purchase life insurance Policies on the life of the Participant, on the life of the Participant’s Spouse, and/or on the joint lives of the Participant and his or her Spouse.

(d)

Alternate Limit on Premiums for 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plans. Notwithstanding paragraph (b) above, if this is a 401(k) plan or a profit sharing plan, a Participant may elect that up to 100% of his or her Rollover Contribution Account and Voluntary Employee Contribution Account, and up to 100% of the portion of his or her Vested Participant’s Account that has accumulated in the Plan for at least 2 years and is no longer subject to the distribution restrictions set forth in Code §401(k)(2)(B), be used to purchase Policies on the life of the Participant, the life of the Participant’s Spouse, and/or the joint lives of the Participant and the Participant’s Spouse. Likewise, a Participant who has participated in the Plan for at least 5 years may elect that up to 100% of his or her Rollover Contribution Account and Voluntary Employee Contribution Account, and up to 100% of his or her Vested Participant’s Account balance that is no longer subject to the distribution restrictions set forth in Code §401(k)(2)(B), be used to purchase Policies on the life of the Participant, the life of the Participant’s Spouse, and/or the joint lives of the Participant and his or her Spouse.

(e)

Payment of Premiums. If Employer contributions are inadequate to pay premiums on Policies, the Trustees may, at the direction of the Administrator, utilize other amounts remaining in the Trust Fund to pay the premiums, allow the Policies to lapse, reduce the Policies to a level at which they may be maintained, or borrow against the Policies on a prorated basis if borrowing does not discriminate in favor of Policies issued on the lives of Highly Compensated Employees. The Trustees may also pay premiums from the loan values of the Policies themselves if (1) any loan is made against all of the Policies in proportion to their respective cash surrender values, and (2) all loans are repaid in proportion to the cash surrender value of such Policies.

(f)

Policy Dividends. Any insurer payments which are paid to the Trustee on account of experience credits, dividends, or surrender or cancellation credits, will be applied by the Employer within the current or next succeeding Plan Year toward premiums due.

(g)

Disposition of Policies at Retirement. When a Participant retires, the Trustee, at the direction of the Administrator, must, with respect to any Policies that have been purchased on the life of such Participant under this Section, either (1) transfer them to the Participant, (2) with the Participant’s consent, borrow their cash surrender values and transfer them to the Participant subject to the loan, or (3) surrender them for their cash surrender values. If options (2) or (3) are elected, the cash surrender values will be added to the Participant’s Account for distribution in accordance with Section 5.1.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 102 of 114		July 2008

(h)

Disposition of Policies Upon Termination. If a Terminated Participant’s Vested Interest equals or exceeds the cash surrender value of any Policies issued on his life, the Trustee, with the consent of both the Administrator and the Terminated Participant, will transfer such Policies to the Terminated Participant, together with any restrictions the Administrator may impose concerning the Terminated Participant’s right to surrender, assign, or otherwise realize cash on such Policies prior to his Normal Retirement Date. If the Terminated Participant’s Vested Interest is less than the cash surrender values of such Policies, the Administrator may permit him or her to pay the Trustee the sum required to make distribution equal to the value of the Policies being assigned or transferred, or the Trustee may borrow the cash surrender values of the Policies from the insurer and then assign the Policies to the Terminated Participant. Under no circumstances will the Trust (or custodial account) retain any part of the insurance Policy proceeds. If applicable to this Plan, then the provisions of this paragraph also apply to a Participant who Terminates Employment because of Disability.

(i)

Protection of Fiduciaries and Insurers. Neither the Trustee, the Employer, the Administrator, nor any fiduciary (including any Named Fiduciary) will be responsible for the validity of any Policy or the failure of any insurer to make payments thereunder, or for the action of any person which may delay payment or render a Policy void in whole or in part. No insurer will be deemed a party to this Plan for any purpose or to be responsible for its validity; nor will it be required to look into the terms of the Plan nor to question any action of the Trustee. The obligations of the insurer will be determined solely by the Policy’s terms and any other written agreements between it and the Trustee. The insurer will act only at the written direction of the Trustee, and will be discharged from all liability with respect to any amount paid to the Trustee. The insurer will not be obligated to see that any money paid by it to the Trustee or any other person is properly applied.

(j)

Non-Trusteed Plan. If the Plan is a non-trusteed Plan (a Plan designated only with Policies), then this paragraph applies to the Plan. No Policy will be purchased under the Plan unless such Policy or a separate definite written agreement between the Employer and the insurer provides that no value under Policies providing benefits under the Plan or credits determined by the insurer (on account of dividends, earnings, or other experience rating credits; or surrender or cancellation credits) with respect to such Policies may be paid or returned to the Employer or diverted to or used for other than the exclusive benefit of the Participants or their Beneficiaries. However, any contribution made by the Employer because of a mistake of fact must be returned to the Employer within one year of the contribution. If the Plan is funded by Policies that provide a Participant’s benefit under the Plan, such Policies will constitute the Participant’s Account balance. If the Plan is funded by group Policies, under a group annuity or group insurance Policy, then premiums or other consideration received by the insurance company must be allocated to Participants’ Accounts under the Plan.

(k)

Conflict With Plan. If the provisions of any Policy purchased hereunder conflict with the terms of this Plan, the Plan provisions will control.

7.3

Key Man Insurance. The Administrator may instruct the Trustee to purchase insurance Policies on the life of any Participant whose employment is deemed to be key to the Employer’s financial success. Such key man Policies will be deemed to be an investment of the Trust Fund and will be payable to the Trust Fund as the beneficiary thereof. The Trustee may exercise any and all rights granted under such Policies. Neither the Trustee, Employer, Administrator, nor any fiduciary (including any Named Fiduciary) will be responsible for the validity of any Policy or the failure of any insurer to make payments thereunder, or for the action of any person which delays payment or renders a Policy void in whole or in part. No insurer which issues a Policy will be deemed to be a party to this Plan for any purpose or to be responsible for its validity; nor will any such insurer be required to look into the terms of the Plan nor to question any action of the Trustee. The obligations of the insurer will be determined solely by the Policy’s terms and any other written agreements between it and the Trustee. The insurer will act only at the written direction of the Trustee, and will be discharged from all liability with respect to any amount paid to the Trustee. The insurer will not be obligated to see that any money paid by it to the Trustee or any other person is properly distributed or applied.

7.4

Directed Investment Accounts. Pursuant to any rules or procedures promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator, Participants can direct the investment of a portion of (or all of) one or more of their accounts (hereafter called Directed Investment Accounts) established under the terms of the Plan. Investment directives will only be given in accordance with an administrative policy regarding Directed Investment Accounts that is promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator. With respect to any Participant who fails to exercise the right to direct the investment of his or her Directed Investment Accounts, such Directed Investment Accounts will be invested by the Trustee at the direction of the Administrator in a “default investment” which has been selected by the Administrator and which is expected to produce a favorable rate of return and that minimizes the overall risk of losing money. With respect to Directed Investment Accounts, fiduciaries will only be protected by ERISA §404(c) for a Plan Year if all of the requirements of ERISA §404(c) and the Department of Labor Regulations promulgated thereunder are complied with on each day of the Plan Year.

Article 8

Duties of the Administrator

8.1

Appointment, Resignation, Removal and Succession. The Sponsoring Employer will serve as the Administrator, unless the Sponsoring Employer elects in the Adoption Agreement to appoint another Administrator. Each Administrator that is appointed will continue until his death, resignation, or removal, and any Administrator may resign by giving 30 days written notice to the Sponsoring Employer. If an Administrator dies, resigns, or is removed, his successor will be appointed as promptly as possible, and such appointment will become effective upon its acceptance in writing by such successor. Pending the appointment and acceptance of any successor Administrator, any then acting or remaining Administrator will have full power to act.

8.2

General Powers and Duties. The powers and duties of the Administrator include (a) appointing the Plan’s attorney, accountant, actuary, or any other party needed to administer the Plan; (b) directing the Trustees with respect to payments from the Trust Fund; (c) deciding if a Participant is entitled to a benefit; (d) communicating with Employees regarding their participation and benefits under the Plan, including the administration of all claims procedures; (e) filing any returns and reports with the Internal Revenue Service, Department of Labor, or any other governmental agency; (f) reviewing and approving any financial reports, investment reviews, or other reports prepared by any party under clause (a) above; (g) establishing a funding policy and investment objectives consistent with the purposes of the Plan and the ERISA; (h) construing and resolving any question of Plan interpretation; and (i) making any findings of fact the Administrator deems necessary to proper Plan administration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Plan, benefits under this Plan will be paid only if the Administrator decides in its discretion that the applicant is entitled to them. The Administrator’s interpretation of Plan provisions, and any findings of fact, including eligibility to participate and eligibility for benefits, are final and will not be subject to “de novo” review unless shown to be arbitrary and capricious.

8.3

Functioning of the Committee. If a Committee is established, a member of the Committee will serve until his or her death, disability, removal by the Sponsoring Employer, or resignation. In the event of any vacancy arising from the death, disability, removal, or resignation of a member of the Committee, the Sponsoring Employer may, but is not required to, appoint a successor to serve in his or her place. The Committee will select a chairman and secretary from among its members. Members of the Committee will serve without compensation. The Committee will act by majority vote. The proper expenses of the Committee, and the compensation of its agents, if any, that are appointed pursuant to Section 8.7, will be paid directly by the Employer.

8.4

Multiple Administrators. If more than one Administrator has been appointed by the Sponsoring Employer, the Administrators may delegate specific responsibilities among themselves, including the authority to execute documents unless the Sponsoring Employer revokes such delegation. The Sponsoring Employer and Trustee will be notified in writing of any such delegation of responsibilities, and the Trustee thereafter may rely upon any documents executed by the appropriate Administrator.

8.5

Correcting Administrative Errors. The Administrator will take such steps as the Administrator considers necessary and appropriate to remedy administrative or operational errors, including, but not be limited to, the following: (a) any action pursuant to (1) any Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS) that is issued by the Internal Revenue Service, (2) any asset management or fiduciary conduct error correction program that is issued by the Department of Labor, or (3) any other correction program issued by any Department or governmental agency; (b) a reallocation of Plan assets; (c) an adjustment in the amount of future payments to any Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee; and (d) the institution, prosecution, and/or settlement of legal actions to recover benefit payments made in error or on the basis of incorrect or incomplete information.

8.6

Promulgating Notices and Procedures. The Sponsoring Employer and Administrator are given the power and responsibility to promulgate certain written notices, policies and/or procedures under the terms of the Plan and disseminate them to Participants, and the Administrator may satisfy such responsibility by the preparation of any such notice, policy and/or procedure in a written form which can be published and communicated to a Participant in one or more of the following ways: (a) by distribution in hard copy; (b) through distribution of a summary plan description or summary of material modifications thereto which sets forth the policy or procedure with respect to a right, benefit or feature offered under the Plan; (c) by e-mail, either to a Participant’s personal e-mail address or his or her Employer-maintained e-mail address; and (d) by publication on a web-site accessible by the Participant, provided the Participant is notified of said web-site publication. Any notice, policy and/or procedure provided through an electronic medium will only be valid if the electronic medium which is used is reasonably designed to provide the notice, policy and/or procedure in a manner no less understandable to the Participant than a written document, and under such medium, at the time the notice, policy and/or procedure is provided, the Employee may request and receive the notice, policy and/or procedure on a written paper document at no charge.

8.7

Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Administrator may appoint such actuaries, accountants, custodians, counsel, agents, consultants, service companies and other persons deemed necessary or desirable in connection with the administration and operation of the Plan. Any person or company so appointed will exercise no discretionary authority over investments or the disposition of Trust assets, and their services and duties will be ministerial only and will be to provide the Plan with those things required by law or by the terms of the Plan without in any way exercising any fiduciary authority or responsibility under the Plan. The duties of a third party Administrator will be to safe-keep the individual records for all Participants and to prepare all required actuarial services and disclosure forms under the supervision of the Administrator and any fiduciaries of the Plan. It is expressly stated that the third party Administrator’s services are only ministerial in nature and that under no circumstances will such third party Administrator (a) exercise any discretionary authority whatsoever over Plan Participants, Plan investments, or Plan benefits; or (b) be given any authority or discretion concerning the management and operation of the Plan that would cause them to become fiduciaries of the Plan.

8.8

Compensation and Expenses. The Administrator may receive such compensation as agreed upon between the Sponsoring Employer and the Administrator, provided that any person who already receives full-time pay from the Employer may not receive any fees from the Plan for services to the Plan as Administrator or in any other capacity, except for reimbursement for expenses actually and properly incurred. The Sponsoring Employer will pay all “settlor” expenses (as described in Department of Labor Advisory Opinion 2001-01-A) incurred by the Administrator, the Committee or any party that is appointed under Section 8.7 in the performance of their duties. The Sponsoring Employer may pay, but is not required to pay, all “non-settlor” expenses incurred by the Administrator, the Committee, or any party that is appointed under Section 8.7 in the performance of their duties. Any “non-settlor” expenses incurred by the Administrator, the Committee or any party that is appointed under Section 8.7 that the Sponsoring Employer elects not to pay will be reimbursed from Trust Fund assets. Any expenses paid from the Trust Fund will be charged to each Adopting Employer in the ratio that each Adopting Employer’s Participants’ Accounts bears to the total of all the Participants’ Accounts maintained by this Plan, or in any other reasonable method elected by the Administrator.

8.9

8.10

Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or QDRO, is a signed domestic relations order issued by a State or a Commonwealth court which creates, recognizes or assigns to an alternate payee(s) the right to receive all or part of a Participant’s Plan benefit. An alternate payee is a Spouse, former Spouse, child, or other dependent of a Participant who is treated as a Beneficiary under the Plan as a result of the QDRO. The Administrator will determine if a domestic relations order received by the Plan is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order based on an administrative policy regarding Qualified Domestic Relations Orders that is promulgated under Section 8.6 by the Administrator.

8.11

Appointment of an Investment Manager. The Administrator, with the consent of the Sponsoring Employer, may appoint an Investment Manager to manage and control the investment of all or any portion of the assets of the Trust. Each Investment Manager must be a person (other than the Trustee) who (a) has the power to manage, acquire, or dispose of Plan assets, (b) is an investment adviser, a bank, or an insurance company as described in ERISA §3(38)(B), and (c) acknowledges fiduciary responsibility to the Plan in writing. The Administrator will enter into an agreement with an Investment Manager that specifies the duties and compensation of the Investment Manager and specifies any other terms and conditions under which the Investment Manager will be retained. The Trustee is not liable for any act or omission of an Investment Manager and is not liable for following an Investment Manager’s advice with respect to duties delegated by the Administrator to the Investment Manager. The Administrator can determine the portion of the Plan’s assets to be invested by a designated Investment Manager and can establish investment objectives and guidelines for the Investment Manager to follow.

Article 9

Trustee Provisions

9.1

Appointment, Resignation, Removal and Succession. The Trust established under the Plan will have one or more individual Trustees, a corporate Trustee, or any combination thereof, appointed as follows:

(a)

Appointment. Each Trustee will be appointed and will serve until a successor has been named or until such Trustee’s resignation, death, incapacity, or removal, in which event the Sponsoring Employer will name a successor Trustee. The term Trustee will include the original and any successor Trustees.

(b)

Resignation. A Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Sponsoring Employer, unless such notice is waived by the Sponsoring Employer. The Sponsoring Employer may remove a Trustee at any time by giving such Trustee written notice. Such removal may be with or without cause. Unless waived in writing by the Sponsor, if any Trustee who is an Employee or an elected or appointed official resigns or terminates employment with the Sponsoring Employer or an Adopting Employer, such termination will constitute an immediate resignation as a Trustee of the Plan.

(c)

Successor Trustee. Each successor Trustee will succeed to the title to the Trust by accepting the appointment in writing and by filing such written acceptance with the former Trustee and the Sponsoring Employer. The former Trustee, upon receipt of such acceptance, will execute all documents and perform all acts necessary to vest the Trust Fund’s title of record in any successor Trustee. No successor Trustee will be personally liable for any act or failure to act of any predecessor Trustee.

(d)

Merger. If any corporate Trustee, before or after qualification, changes its name, consolidates or merges with another corporation, or otherwise reorganizes, any resulting corporation that succeeds to the retirement plan trustee business of such Trustee will become a Trustee hereunder in lieu of such corporate Trustee.

9.2

Powers and Duties of the Trustee. The specific powers and duties of the Trustee will be governed under the terms of a separate trust instrument entered into between the Sponsoring Employer and the Trustee.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 106 of 114		July 2008

Article 10

Adopting Employers

10.1

Plan Contributions. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, or unless otherwise required by law, no Employer will have any obligation to make contributions to this Plan for or on behalf of the Employees of any other Employer. If an Employee is employed by more than one Employer, any contributions made on his or her behalf will be prorated between those Employers on the basis of the Compensation that the Employee received from each Employer. If any Employer is unable to make a contribution for any Plan Year, any Employer which is an Affiliated Employer of such Employer may make an additional contribution to the Plan on behalf of any Employee of the non-contributing Employer.

10.2

Plan Amendments. Any amendment to this Plan that is adopted by the Sponsoring Employer, at any time, will be deemed to be accepted by any Adopting Employer, unless such Adopting Employer is not an Affiliated Employer and elects not to adopt a discretionary Plan amendment.

10.3

Plan Expenses. Any expenses paid from the Trust will be charged to each Adopting Employer in the ratio that each Adopting Employer’s Participants’ Accounts bears to the total of all the Participants’ Accounts maintained by this Plan, or in any other reasonable method elected by the Administrator.

10.4

Employee Transfers. An Employee’s transfer to or from an Employer or Adopting Employer will not affect his or her Participant’s Account balance and total Years of Service or Periods of Service.

10.5

Multiple Employer Provisions Under Code §413(c). Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, unless the Plan is a collectively bargained plan under Regulation §1.413-1(a), the following provisions apply to any Adopting Employer that is not also an Affiliated Employer:

(a)

Instances of Separate Employer Testing. Employees of any such Adopting Employer will be treated separately for testing under Code §401(a)(4), §401(k), §401(m) and, if the Sponsoring Employer and the Adopting Employer do not share Employees, Code §416. Furthermore, the terms of Code §410(b) will be applied separately on an employer-by-employer basis by the Sponsoring Employer (and the Adopting Employers which are part of the Affiliated Group which includes the Sponsoring Employer) and each Adopting Employer that is not an Affiliated Employer of the Sponsoring Employer, taking into account the generally applicable rules described in Code §401(a)(5), §414(b) and §414(c).

(b)

Instances of Single Employer Testing. Employees of the Adopting Employer will be treated as part of a single Employer plan for purposes of eligibility to participate under Article 2 and under the provisions of Code §410(a). Furthermore, the terms of Code §411 relating to Vesting will be applied as if all Employees of all such Adopting Employers and the Sponsoring Employer were employed by a single Employer, except that the rules regarding Breaks in Service will be applied under the Department of Labor Regulations.

(c)

Common Trust. Contributions made by any Adopting Employer will be held in a common Trust Fund with contributions made by the Sponsoring Employer, and all such contributions will be available to pay the benefits of any Participant (or Beneficiary thereof) who is an Employee of the Sponsoring Employer or any such Adopting Employer.

(d)

Common Disqualification Provision. The failure of the Sponsoring Employer or an Adopting Employer to satisfy the qualification requirements under the provisions of Code §401(a), as modified by the provisions of Code §413(c), will result in the disqualification of the Plan for all such Employers maintaining the Plan.

(e)

Plan Becomes Individually Designed. If the combination of the Sponsoring Employer and/or any Adopting Employer creates a multiple employer plan as defined in Code §413(c) and any applicable transition period of Code §410(b)(6)(C) has expired, then this Plan will be deemed to be an individually designed plan.

10.6

Termination of Adoption. An Adopting Employer may terminate its adoption of the Plan by delivering written notice to the Sponsoring Employer, to the Administrator and to the Trustee (but in accordance with Article 11, only the Sponsoring Employer can terminate the Plan). Upon any such termination of adoption by an Adopting Employer, the Adopting Employer may request a transfer of Trust Fund assets attributable to its Employees from this Plan to a successor qualified retirement plan maintained by the Adopting Employer or its successor. If such request is not made by the Adopting Employer, or if the Administrator refuses to make the transfer because in its opinion a transfer would operate to the detriment of any Participant, would jeopardize the continued qualification of the Plan, or would not comply with any requirements of the Code, Regulations, or rules promulgated by the Department of Treasury or Internal Revenue Service, then termination of adoption by an Adopting Employer as described in this Section will not be considered a distributable event; distribution of a Participant’s Account of an Employee of the Adopting Employer will be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 upon the death, retirement, Disability, or the Termination of Employment from the Adopting Employer or former Adopting Employer, as if such termination of adoption by the Adopting Employer had not occurred.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 107 of 114		July 2008

Article 11

Amendment, Termination, Merger and Elective Transfers

11.1

Plan Amendment. The Basic Plan and Adoption Agreements can be amended at any time, and from time to time, in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Amendment by the Mass Submitter. Subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the Mass Submitter may amend any part of the Basic Plan and the Adoption Agreements. For purposes of this Plan, the Mass Submitter is AccuDraft, Inc.

(b)

Amendment by the Prototype Sponsor. Subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the Prototype Sponsor may amend any part of the Basic Plan and Adoption Agreements on behalf of each Employer maintaining the Plan at the time of the amendment. Any amendment to the Basic Plan does not require consent of an Employer, nor does an Employer have to reexecute its Adoption Agreement with respect to an amendment. The Prototype Sponsor will provide each Employer a copy of the amended Basic Plan (either by providing substitute or additional pages, or by providing a restated Basic Plan). An amendment by the Prototype Sponsor to an Adoption Agreement offered under the Prototype Plan is not effective with respect to an Employer’s Plan unless the Employer reexecutes the amended Adoption Agreement. For purposes of amendments made by the Prototype Sponsor, the Mass Submitter will be recognized as the agent of the Prototype Sponsor. If the Prototype Sponsor does not adopt the amendments made by the Mass Submitter, it will no longer be identical to or a minor modifier of the Mass Submitter plan.

(c)

Amendment by the Sponsoring Employer. Subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in paragraphs (d) and (e) below, the Sponsoring Employer may amend any part of the Basic Plan and the Adoption Agreements in accordance with the following provisions:

(1)

Permissible Amendments. The Sponsoring Employer will have the right at any time to amend the Adoption Agreement in the following manner without affecting the Plan’s status as a Prototype Plan: (A) the Sponsoring Employer may change any optional selections under the Adoption Agreement; (B) the Sponsoring Employer may add additional language where authorized under the Adoption Agreement, including language necessary to satisfy Code §415 or Code §416 due to the aggregation of multiple plans; (C) the Sponsoring Employer may change the addendums to the Adoption Agreement from time to time without having to reexecute the signature page of the Adoption Agreement; (D) the Sponsoring Employer may adopt any model, sample and/or “good faith” amendments promulgated/suggested by the IRS, for which the IRS has provided guidance that their adoption will not cause the Plan to be treated as an individually designed plan; (E) the Sponsoring Employer may adopt any amendments that it deems necessary to resolve qualification failures under any Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS) that is promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service; and (F) the Sponsoring Employer may adopt an amendment to cure a coverage or nondiscrimination testing failure, as permitted under applicable Regulations. The Sponsoring Employer may also amend the Plan at any time for any other reason, including a waiver of the minimum funding requirement under Code §412(d); however, such an amendment will cause the Plan to lose its status as a Prototype Plan and become an individually designed plan. The ability to amend the Plan as authorized under this Section applies only to the Sponsoring Employer that executes the signature page of the Adoption Agreement. Any amendment to the Plan by the Sponsoring Employer under this Section applies to any Affiliated Employer that participates under the Plan as an Adopting Employer. The Sponsoring Employer’s amendment of the Plan from one type of defined contribution plan (e.g., a money purchase plan) into another type of defined contribution plan (e.g., a profit sharing plan) will not result in a partial termination or any other event that would require full Vesting of some or all Plan Participants.

(2)

Manner of Amending Adoption Agreements. The Sponsoring Employer can at any time change any election previously made in an Adoption Agreement (or any addendum previously attached thereto) by (A) substituting pages with the new elections (or new addendum) and executing an “Amendment By Page Substitution” and attaching it as part of the Adoption Agreement; (B) executing an “Amendment By Section Replication” in which the Section or Sections (or addendum or addendums) to be changed are reproduced with the new elections selected, and attaching it as part of the Adoption Agreement; (C) executing a properly worded resolution, certificate of action, or meeting minutes and attaching it as part of the Adoption Agreement; or (D) creating and distributing a Safe Harbor Notice (other than a contingent Safe Harbor Notice as described in Section 3.20(d)) to Safe Harbor Participants.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 108 of 114		July 2008

(d)

General Requirements. An amendment of the Basic Plan or Adoption Agreement by the Mass Submitter, the Prototype Sponsor, or the Sponsoring Employer must be in writing. However, no such amendment or modification (1) can increase the responsibilities of the Trustee or Administrator without their written consent; (2) can deprive any Participant or Beneficiary of the benefits to which he or she is entitled from the Plan; (3) can result in a decrease in the amount of any Participant’s Account except as may be permitted under the terms of Code §412(c)(8) if applicable; or (4) can, except as otherwise provided, permit any part of the Trust Fund (other than as required to pay taxes and administration expenses) to be used for or diverted to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of the Participants or their Beneficiaries, or cause or permit any portion of the Trust Fund to revert to or become the property of the Employer. In addition, unless the provisions of paragraph (e) are satisfied, no amendment to the Plan will have the effect of eliminating or restricting the ability of a Participant or other payee to receive payment of his or her Account balance or benefit entitlement under a particular optional form of benefit provided under the Plan.

(e)

Elimination of Optional Forms of Benefit. No Plan amendment will be effective to eliminate or restrict an optional form of benefit. The preceding sentence will not apply to a Plan amendment that eliminates or restricts the ability of a Participant to receive payment of the Participant’s Account balance under a particular optional form of benefit (including annuities and installments) if the amendment provides a single-sum distribution form that is otherwise identical to the optional form of benefit being eliminated or restricted. For this purpose, a single-sum distribution form is otherwise identical only if the single-sum distribution form is identical in all respects to the eliminated or restricted optional form of benefit (or would be identical except that it provides greater rights to the Participant) except with respect to the timing of payments after commencement. With respect to the modification or elimination of an optional form of benefit under which benefits are distributable to a Participant in a medium other than cash, the following provisions will apply:

(1)

Eliminating Distributions Payable in Marketable Securities (other than Employer Securities). If the Plan includes an optional form of benefit under which benefits are distributed in the form of Marketable Securities (other than Securities of the Employer), then that optional form of benefit may be eliminated by a Plan amendment (or the Plan’s amendment and restatement) by substituting cash for the Marketable Securities as the medium of distribution.

(2)

Amendments to Specify Medium of Distribution. If the Plan includes an optional form of benefit under which benefits are distributable to a Participant in a medium other than cash, then the Plan may be amended (or may be amended and restated) to limit the types of property in which distributions may be made to the Participant to the types of property specified in the amendment (or the amendment and restatement). For this purpose, the types of property specified in the amendment (or the amendment and restatement) must include all types of property (other than marketable securities that are not securities of the Employer) that are allocated to the Participant’s Account on the effective date of the amendment (or the amendment and restatement) and in which the Participant would be able to receive a distribution immediately before the effective date of the amendment (or the amendment and restatement) if a distributable event occurred. In addition, a Plan amendment (or the Plan’s amendment and restatement) may provide that the Participant’s right to receive a distribution in the form of specified types of property is limited to the property allocated to the Participant’s Account at the time of distribution that consists of property of those specified types.

(3)

In-Kind Distributions after Plan Termination. If the Plan includes an optional form of benefit under which benefits are distributed in specified property, then that optional form of benefit may be modified for distributions after Plan termination by substituting cash for the specified property as the medium of distribution to the extent that, on Plan termination, an Employee has the opportunity to receive the optional form of benefit in the form of the specified property. However, if the Employer that maintains the terminating Plan also maintains another plan that provides an optional form of benefit under which benefits are distributed in the specified property, then this exception is not available.

(4)

Definitions of Marketable Securities and Securities of the Employer. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Marketable Securities” means marketable securities as defined in Code §731(c)(2). The term “Securities of the Employer” means securities of the Employer as defined in Code §402(e)(4)(E)(ii).

(f)

Certain Corrective Amendments. To satisfy the minimum coverage requirements of Code §410(b), the nondiscriminatory amount requirement of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-1(b)(2), or the nondiscriminatory plan amendment requirement of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-1(b)(4), a corrective amendment or change of the choice of options in the Adoption Agreement may retroactively increase allocations for Employees who benefited under the Plan during the Plan Year being corrected, or may grant allocations to Employees who did not benefit under the Plan during the Plan Year being corrected. To satisfy the nondiscriminatory current availability requirement of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-4(b) for benefits, rights or features, a corrective amendment or change of the choice of options in the Adoption Agreement may make a benefit, right or feature available to Employees to whom it was previously not available. A corrective amendment or change of the choice of options in the Adoption Agreement will not be effective prior to the date of adoption unless it satisfies the applicable requirements of Regulation §1.401(a)(4)-11(g)(3)(ii) through (vii), including the requirement that, in order to be effective for the preceding Plan Year, such amendment or change of the choice of options in the Adoption Agreement must be adopted by the 15th day of the 10th month after the close of the preceding Plan Year.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 109 of 114		July 2008

11.2

Termination of the Plan. The Sponsoring Employer at any time can terminate the Plan and Trust in whole or in part in accordance with the following provisions:

(a)

Termination of Plan. The Sponsoring Employer can terminate the Plan and Trust by filing written notice thereof with the Administrator and Trustee and by completely discontinuing contributions to the Plan. Upon any such termination, the Trust Fund will continue to be administered until complete distribution has been made to the Participants and other payees, which distribution must occur as soon as administratively feasible after the termination of the Plan, and must be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 5 of the Plan, including Section 5.6 where applicable. However, the Administrator may elect not to distribute the Accounts of Participants and other payees upon termination of the Plan but instead to transfer the entire Trust Fund assets and liabilities attributable to this terminated Plan to another qualified plan maintained by the Employer or its successor.

(b)

(c)

Vesting Requirement upon Partial Termination Upon partial termination of the Plan, only a Participant who has Terminated Employment because of the event which causes the partial termination but who has not incurred five consecutive Breaks in Service will have a 100% Vested Interest in his or her unpaid Participant’s Account as of the date of partial termination.

(d)

Discontinuance of Contributions. The Sponsoring Employer may at any time completely discontinue contributions to the Plan but continue the Plan in operation in all other respects, in which event the Trust Fund will continue to be administered until eventual full distribution of all benefits has been made to the Participants and other payees in accordance with Article 5 after their Termination of Employment for any reason. Discontinuance of contributions without an additional notice of termination from the Sponsoring Employer to the Administrator and Trustee will not constitute a termination of the Plan.

11.3

Merger or Consolidation. This Plan and Trust may not be merged or consolidated with, nor may any of its assets or liabilities be transferred to, any other plan, unless the benefits payable to each Participant if the Plan was terminated immediately after such action would be equal to or greater than the benefits to which such Participant would have been entitled if this Plan had been terminated immediately before such action. For purposes of this Section, the term “Code §410(b)(6)(C) Transaction” means an asset or stock acquisition, merger, or similar transaction involving a change in the employer of the employees of a business. If the Employer acquires another company in a Code §410(b)(6)(C) Transaction, employees of the acquired company may be excluded from this Plan regardless of the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Plan and the Adoption Agreement during the period beginning on the date of the transaction and ending on the last day of the Plan Year that begins after the date of the Code §410(b)(6)(C) Transaction.

11.4

Plan-to-Plan Elective Transfers. To permit Participants to consolidate all qualified defined contribution plan accounts into a single plan for investments, distributions, loans and other administrative purposes, the Sponsoring Employer may permit Participants to transfer amounts to and from this Plan under the following rules:

(a)

Transfers to This Plan. If permitted by the Sponsoring Employer and subject to the provisions of this Section, then a Participant may request that such Participant’s entire account balance (both the vested interest and the non-vested interest) in another qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Sponsoring Employer (or an Adopting Employer) be transferred in cash or in property into this Plan. Such transferred amount into this Plan will be considered a Transfer Contribution.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 110 of 114		July 2008

(b)

Transfers from This Plan. If permitted by the Sponsoring Employer, then a Participant may request that such Participant’s Account balance (both the Vested Interest and the Non-Vested Interest) in this Plan be transferred in cash or in property into another qualified defined contribution plan of the Sponsoring Employer (or an Adopting Employer).

(c)

Limitation on Transfers. A transfer into or from this Plan pursuant to this Section is only permitted if the Participant is ineligible to actively participate at the same time in the Sponsoring Employer’s (or an Adopting Employer’s) plan from which the transfer is being made (the transferor plan) and the Sponsoring Employer’s (or an Adopting Employer’s) plan into which the transfer is being made (the transferee plan).

(d)

Plan Accounts. Transfer Contributions from another qualified defined contribution plan into this Plan will maintain their identity as Elective Deferrals, Matching Contributions, Voluntary Employee Contributions, Deductible Employee Contributions, Non-Elective Contributions, Qualified Non-Elective Contributions, Qualified Matching Contributions, Safe Harbor 401(k) Contributions, and Rollover Contributions in this Plan. Such Transfer Contributions will be accounted for separately in this Plan.

(e)

Protected Benefits. Any Transfer Contributions into this Plan that have benefits, rights and features (including, but not limited to, certain optional forms of benefit payments, such as annuities) required to be preserved by Code §411(d)(6) will continue to be preserved and protected in this Plan to the extent required by Code §411(d)(6). The Sponsoring Employer (or an Adopting Employer) reserves the right to eliminate any benefits, rights and features (including, but not limited to, certain optional forms of benefit payments) of any Transfer Contributions into this Plan, to the extent permitted under Code §411(d)(6).

(f)

Vesting. Transfer Contributions into this Plan must Vest at least as rapidly under this Plan (the transferee plan) as they would Vest under the plan from which the transfer is being made (the transferor plan), as if the transfer had not occurred. If this Plan is the transferee plan and the Vesting schedule under the transferor plan for a specific source of transferred amounts (Matching Contributions or Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions) is less favorable than the Vesting schedule that applies to the same component (Matching Contributions or Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions) in this Plan, the Administrator may apply, in a non-discriminatory manner, the Vesting schedule of this Plan’s component (Matching Contributions or Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions) to that portion of the Transfer Contributions.

(g)

Transfer Requests Subject to Administrative Approval. Any transfer into or from this Plan must be made in cash or property acceptable to the Trustee. Any benefits, rights and features of a Transfer Contribution required to be protected by Code §411(d)(6) must be acceptable to and approved by the Administrator.

(h)

Application of This Section’s Rules. The provisions of this Section will apply to all Transfer Contributions, regardless of whether a Transfer Contribution was an elective transfer initiated by the Participant.


DC Basic Plan #01		Page 111 of 114		July 2008

Article 12

Miscellaneous Provisions

12.1

No Contract of Employment. Except as otherwise provided by law, neither the establishment of this Plan, any modification hereto, the creation of any fund or account, nor the payment of any benefits, will be construed as giving any Participant or other person any legal or equitable rights against the Employer, any officer or Employee thereof, or the Trustee, except as herein provided. Further, under no circumstances will the terms of employment of any Participant be modified or otherwise affected by this Plan.

12.2

Title to Assets. No Participant or Beneficiary will have any right to, or any interest in, any assets of the Trust upon separation from service with the Employer, Affiliated Employer, or Adopting Employer, except as otherwise provided by the terms of the Plan.

12.3

Qualified Military Service. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, contributions, benefits and service credit with respect to qualified military service will be provided in accordance with Code §414(u).

12.4

Domestic Partner’s Rights. If elected in the Adoption Agreement, then a Domestic Partner will be afforded the same rights as a Spouse for purposes of this Plan. However, until such time as ERISA recognizes Federal enforcement rights of a Domestic Partner, enforcement of these rights by a Domestic Partner will be based on a State’s (or Commonwealth’s) contract law (without the necessity of proving adequate consideration or actual damages under contract law) or other applicable law.

12.5

Fiduciaries and Bonding. Fiduciaries (including Named Fiduciaries) of the Plan will have only those powers and duties specifically given to them under the terms of this Plan. Every fiduciary other than a bank, an insurance company, or a fiduciary of an Employer which has no common-law employees, will be bonded in an amount not less than 10% of the amount of funds under the fiduciary’s supervision, but the bond will not be less than $1,000 or more than $500,000 or such other amount that may be required by law. The bond will provide protection to the Plan against any loss for acts of fraud or dishonesty by a fiduciary acting alone or in concert with others. The cost of such bond will be an expense of either the Employer or the Trust, at the election of the Sponsoring Employer.

12.6

Severability of Provisions. If any Plan provision is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Plan, and this Plan will be construed and enforced as if such provision had not been included.

12.7

Interpretation of the Plan and Trust. The following provisions apply to the interpretation of the Plan and Trust:

(a)

Names. Names that are used in this Plan should be used consistently in any appendixes, policies, procedures, and/or any other documents which are legally binding upon the Plan. However, in documents that are not considered to be part of this Plan, appendixes, policies or procedures that are not legally binding upon the Plan; and that may be are distributed to individuals (such as the SPDs, SMMs, notices, and election forms), names may use plain English terms. These terms include, but are not limited to, the following: in the case of a profit sharing plan, the Non-Elective Contribution may be called the Employer contribution or the profit sharing contribution. Similarly, the Non-Elective Contribution Account may be called the Participant’s Account or the Participant’s profit sharing account.

(b)

Gender. Words that are used in the masculine gender may be construed as though they are also used in the feminine or neuter gender, where applicable (and vice versa).

(c)

Number. Words that are used in the singular form may be construed as though they are also used in the plural form, where applicable (and vice versa).

(d)

Headings and Subheadings. Headings and subheadings are inserted for convenience of reference. Headings and subheadings constitute no part of this Plan and/or Trust and are not to be considered in its construction or interpretation.

(e)

DC Basic Plan #01		Page 113 of 114		July 2008

12.18

Loss of Prototype Status. If the Prototype Sponsor terminates the services of the Mass Submitter, then this Plan will no longer qualify as a Prototype Plan and will be considered an individually-designed plan.

In addition to and in furtherance of any other limitations provided in the Plan, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Employer will indemnify and hold harmless its board of directors (collectively and individually), if any, the Administrative/Advisory Committee (collectively and individually), if any, and its officers, Employees, and agents against and with respect to any and all expenses, losses, liabilities, costs, and claims, including legal fees to defend against such liabilities and claims, arising out of their good-faith discharge of responsibilities under or incident to the Plan, excepting only expenses and liabilities resulting from willful misconduct. This indemnity will not preclude such further indemnities as may be available under insurance purchased by the Employer or as may be provided by the Employer under any by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, as such indemnities are permitted under state law. Payments with respect to any indemnity and payment of expenses or fees under this Section will be made only from assets of the Employer, and will not be made directly or indirectly from assets of the Trust.

12.22

Exclusive Benefit Rule. All contributions made by the Employer or an Affiliated Employer to the Trust Fund will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Participants who are Employees of the Employer or Affiliated Employer and for their Beneficiaries and will not be used for nor diverted to any other purpose except the payment of the costs of maintaining the Plan.

12.23

Introduction

This Post-EGTRRA “Good Faith” Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the AccuDraft Prototype Defined Contribution Retirement Plan is intended as good faith compliance with various post-EGTRRA provisions, including the Pension Protection Act of 2006 and various changes to the Regulations, and is adopted by the Mass Submitter as of June 30, 2008, subject to elections made by either the Prototype Sponsor or the Sponsoring Employer.

This Amendment supersedes any conflicting provisions of the Plan, any administrative policy, the Plan’s funding policy, and/or any previously-adopted “good faith” amendment of the same subject matter, as applicable. If this Amendment establishes/memorializes an Automatic Contribution Arrangement, then this Amendment supersedes any State (or Commonwealth) law that would directly or indirectly prohibit or restrict the inclusion of an Automatic Contribution Arrangement in the Plan, pursuant to ERISA §514(e)(1) and Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404c-5(f).

This Amendment is a “good faith” amendment, is not part of the pre-approved EGTRRA document, and has not been reviewed by the IRS for compliance with post-EGTRRA statutory and Regulatory changes. Furthermore, pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2007-44, this Amendment does not affect the status of reliance upon the Plan.

The Amendment consists of this document (the Post-EGTRRA “Good Faith” Amendment) and the Post-EGTRRA “Good Faith” Amendment Election Form (the “Election Form”). Each Article of the Amendment is based upon the earliest effective year that a specific Section (or specific paragraph of a Section) can apply to the Plan, but the effective year of an Article is used for reference purposes only. The actual effective date of (a) a specific Section of this Amendment, (b) a specific paragraph in a Section of this Amendment, or (c) a specific Section of the Election Form, applies to the Plan and overrides any conflict with the effective year of an Article. Furthermore, the rules of the Plan’s Section entitled “Interpretation of the Plan and Trust” apply to this Amendment.

Article 1

Post-EGTRRA Provisions Effective 2006 And Earlier

1.1

Bonding Requirements. Paragraph (a) below is effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after August 17, 2006. Furthermore, paragraph (b) below is effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2007.

(a)

Determination of Amount. Every Plan fiduciary other than a bank, an insurance company, a broker-dealer who is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 §15(b) and who is subject to the fidelity bond requirements of a self-regulatory organization as defined in ERISA §412(a) as amended by PPA, or a fiduciary of a Sponsoring Employer that has no common-law employees, will be bonded in an amount that is not less than 10% of the amount of funds under such Plan fiduciary’s direct or indirect control; however, such bond will not be less than $1,000 nor more than $500,000 (or such other amount as may be required by law). The bond will provide protection to the Plan against any loss for acts of fraud or dishonesty by a Plan fiduciary acting alone or in concert with others. The cost of such bond will be an expense of either the Sponsoring Employer or the Plan, at the election of the Sponsoring Employer.

(b)

Investment in Employer Securities. If the Plan holds employer securities as defined in ERISA §407(d)(1), the maximum bond described in paragraph (a) is increased to $1,000,000 unless the Department of Labor prescribes a larger amount after notice and an opportunity for interested parties to be heard.

1.2

Service for Vesting Purposes When Previously Frozen Plan Resumes Allocations. If (a) the Plan becomes frozen; (b) the freezing of allocations under the Plan causes a partial termination of the Plan to occur; and (c) allocations later resume under the previously-frozen Plan, then all Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable, after the Plan was established must be recognized for Vesting purposes. In addition, if allocations are made under a new plan maintained by the same Employer and if the new plan is merged with the frozen Plan, then all Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable, after the frozen Plan was established must be recognized for Vesting purposes for any allocations under the new plan after the merger. The provisions of this Section comply with Revenue Ruling 2003-65.

1.3

Eliminating Forms of Distribution. In addition to rules that are enumerated by Regulations and other guidance concerning the modification of the Plan’s Normal Form of Distribution and the modification and/or the elimination of the Plan’s Optional Forms of Distribution, for any applicable Plan amendment that is adopted on or after August 12, 2005 (except as otherwise provided), the Plan may be amended to eliminate a form of distribution, subject to the following rules:


DC Basic Plan		Page 2 of 34		July 2008

(a)

General Rule for Eliminating a Form of Distribution. The Plan may eliminate a form of distribution previously available to Participants, so long as:

(1)

Single Sum Available. A single sum payment is available to Participants at the same time or times as the form of distribution being eliminated;

(2)

Same or Greater Portion of Participant’s Account. Such single sum payment is based upon the same or greater portion of the Participant’s Account as the form of distribution being eliminated; and

(3)

Single Sum Otherwise Identical. Such single-sum distribution form is otherwise identical to the form of benefit being eliminated or restricted. For purposes of this subparagraph, a single-sum distribution form is otherwise identical to the form of benefit that is eliminated or restricted only if the single-sum distribution form is identical in all respects to the eliminated or restricted form of distribution (or would be identical except that it provides greater rights to the Participant) except with respect to the timing of payments after commencement. However, an otherwise identical distribution form need not retain rights or features of the form of benefit that is eliminated or restricted to the extent that those rights or features would not be protected from elimination or restriction under Code §411(d)(6).

(b)

Eliminating Optional Forms of Distribution Through Utilization Test. If the Plan is a money purchase plan or a target benefit plan, then in addition to the provisions of paragraph (a) above, for any applicable Plan amendment adopted after December 31, 2006, the Plan may eliminate any/all Optional Forms of Distribution that comprise a Generalized Optional Form for a Participant with respect to allocations that occurred before the Applicable Amendment Date under the “Utilization Test” of Regulation §1.411(d)-3(f). The elimination of Optional Forms of Distribution of this paragraph (b) is subject to the following:

(1)

Not a Core Benefit. The Optional Forms of Distribution being eliminated cannot be a Core Option.

(2)

Timeframe for Amendment. The Plan amendment is not applicable with respect to an Optional Form of Distribution with an Annuity Starting Date that is earlier than the number of days in the maximum Applicable Election Period after the date that the amendment is adopted.

(3)

Requirements. During the Look-Back Period, (1) the Generalized Optional Form has been available to at least the Applicable Number of Participants; and (2) no Participant has elected any Optional Form of Distribution that is part of the Generalized Optional Form with an Annuity Starting Date that is within the Look-Back Period.

(c)

Definitions. As used in this Section, the following words and phrases have the following meanings:

(1)

Applicable Amendment Date. The term “Applicable Amendment Date” means the later of the effective date of the amendment or the date that the amendment is adopted.

(2)

Applicable Election Period. The term “Applicable Election Period” means the period described in Code §417(a)(6), to wit: with respect to an election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the period that begins not later than 180 days prior to the Annuity Starting Date (unless future guidance requires/permits otherwise).

(3)

Applicable Number of Participants. The term “Applicable Number of Participants” means 50 Participants. However, the Applicable Number of Participants may include Participants Taken Into Account who elected an Optional Form of Distribution that included a single-sum distribution that applied with respect to at least 25% of the Participant’s Account, but only if the Applicable Number of Participants is increased to 1,000 Participants.

(4)

Core Option. The term “Core Option” means (A) a straight life annuity Generalized Optional Form under which the Participant is entitled to a level life annuity with no benefit payable after the Participant’s death; (B) a 75% joint and contingent annuity Generalized Optional Form under which the Participant is entitled to a life annuity with a survivor annuity for any individual designated by the Participant (including a non-Spousal contingent annuitant) that is 75% of the amount payable during the Participant’s life; (C) a 10-year term certain and life annuity Generalized Optional Form under which the Participant is entitled to a life annuity with a guarantee that payments will continue to any person designated by the Participant for the remainder of a fixed period of 10 years if the Participant dies before the end of the 10-year period; and (D) the most valuable option for a Participant with a short life expectancy, as defined in Regulation §1.411(d)-3(g)(5)(iii). The rules of Regulation §1.411(d)-3(g)(5) apply to the determination of Core Options.


DC Basic Plan		Page 3 of 34		July 2008

(5)

Generalized Optional Form. The term “Generalized Optional Form” means a group of Optional Forms of Distribution that are identical except for differences due to actuarial factors used to determine the amount of the distributions under those Optional Forms of Distribution and the Annuity Starting Dates.

(6)

Look-Back Period. The term “Look-Back Period” means the period that includes: (A) the portion of the Plan Year in which such Plan amendment is adopted that precedes the date of adoption (known as the “Pre-Adoption Period”); and (B) the 2 Plan Years immediately preceding the Pre-Adoption Period. With regard to the Look-Back Period, the following rules apply: (A) in the Look-Back Period, at least 1 of the Plan Years must be a 12-month Plan Year; (B) the Plan may exclude, pursuant to an administrative policy that is promulgated by the Administrator, the calendar month in which the amendment is adopted from the Look-Back Period and the preceding 1 or 2 calendar months to the extent those preceding months are contained within the Pre-Adoption Period; and (C) in order to have a Look-Back Period that satisfies the requirement of the minimum Applicable Number of Participants, the Look-Back Period may be expanded pursuant to an administrative policy that is promulgated by the Administrator, to include the 3, 4, or 5 Plan Years immediately preceding the Plan Year in which the amendment is adopted. However, if the Plan does not satisfy the requirement of the minimum Applicable Number of Participants using the Pre-Adoption Period and the immediately preceding 5 Plan Years, then the Plan is not permitted to be amended in accordance with the Utilization Test of this Section.

(7)

Participant Taken Into Account. The term “Participant Taken Into Account” means a Participant who was eligible to elect to commence payment of an Optional Form of Distribution that is part of the Generalized Optional Form being eliminated with an Annuity Starting Date that is within the Look-Back Period. A Participant is not a Participant Taken Into Account if the Participant (A) did not elect any Optional Form of Distribution with an Annuity Starting Date that was within the Look-Back Period; (B) elected an Optional Form of Distribution that included a single-sum distribution that applied with respect to at least 25% of the Participant’s Account; (C) elected an Optional Form of Distribution that was only available during a limited period of time and that contained a retirement-type subsidy where the subsidy that is part of the Generalized Optional Form being eliminated was not extended to any Optional Form of Distribution with the same Annuity Starting Date; or (D) elected an Optional Form of Distribution with an Annuity Starting Date that was more than 10 years before Normal Retirement Age.

1.4

Application of Code §411(a) With Respect to Protected Benefits. Any applicable Plan amendment adopted after August 9, 2006 which decreases a Participant’s Account balance, or otherwise places greater restrictions or conditions on a Participant’s rights to Code §411(d)(6) protected benefits is not permitted, even if the Plan amendment merely adds a restriction or condition that is permitted under the Vesting rules in Code §411(a)(3) through (11). However, a Plan amendment does not violate Code §411(d)(6) to the extent that the amendment applies to allocations after the Applicable Amendment Date. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section, a Plan amendment that satisfies the requirements of Department of Labor Regulation 2530.203-2(c) (relating to Vesting Computation Periods) does not violate the requirements of Code §411(d)(6) even though the Plan amendment changes the Plan’s Vesting Computation Periods. For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Amendment Date” means the later of the effective date of the amendment or the date the amendment is adopted.

1.5

Financial Hardship Distributions. If the Plan is either a profit sharing plan or a 401(k) Plan and if elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective as of the effective date elected in the Election Form, and the following provisions apply to the Plan:

(a)

Revised Definition of Financial Hardship. With respect to financial hardship distributions made on or after the effective date of this Section, the determination of any deemed immediate and heavy financial need described in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iii)(B) will be expanded to include any immediate and heavy financial need (expenses described in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iii)(B)(1), (3), or (5), which relate to medical, tuition, and funeral expenses, respectively) of a Participant’s Primary Beneficiary. For purposes of this Section, the term “Primary Beneficiary” means the individual(s) who is named and designated as a Beneficiary under the terms of the Plan and who has an unconditional right to all or a portion of the Participant’s Account balance upon the Participant’s death.


DC Basic Plan		Page 4 of 34		July 2008

(b)

Amounts to Which the Revised Definition of Financial Hardship Applies. The provisions of this Section apply to financial hardship distributions under the provisions of an administrative policy regarding financial hardship distributions that is promulgated by the Administrator.

1.6

Distribution to a Qualified Reservist. If the Plan is a 401(k) Plan and if elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective with respect to any Qualified Reservist Distribution that is taken after September 11, 2001 but before December 31, 2007, as follows:

(a)

Qualified Reservist Distribution Permitted for Any Reason. A Qualified Reservist Distribution may be made to a Qualified Reservist under any circumstance and/or for any reason without violating the distribution restrictions of Code §401(k)(2)(B)(i).

(b)

Qualified Reservist Distribution Not Subject To Excise Tax and May Be Repaid To an IRA. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, to the extent that any distribution is a Qualified Reservist Distribution, the otherwise applicable 10% excise tax of Code §72(t)(1) on early distributions will not apply. In addition, at any time during the two-year period beginning on the day after the last day of the Qualified Reservist’s active duty (but the two-year period will end no earlier than August 17, 2008), a Qualified Reservist who has received one or more Qualified Reservist Distributions may make one or more repayment contributions to an IRA in an aggregate amount not to exceed the total amount of such Qualified Reservists Distributions. The dollar or compensation limitations otherwise applicable to contributions to an IRA will not apply to a repayment contribution of Qualified Reservist Distributions. No deduction is allowed for a repayment contribution of Qualified Reservist Distributions.

(c)

Definitions. As used in this Section, the following words and phrases have the following meanings:

(1)

Qualified Reservist. The term “Qualified Reservist” means an individual who is a member of a reserve component, as defined in §101 of title 37, United States Code, and who is ordered or called to active duty after September 11, 2001 and before December 31, 2007 either for a period in excess of 179 days or for an indefinite period.

(2)

Qualified Reservist Distribution. The term “Qualified Reservist Distribution” means a distribution of Elective Deferrals to a Qualified Reservist that is made during the period beginning on the date that the Qualified Reservist is ordered or called to duty and ending on the last day of active duty.

1.7

Hurricane Provisions. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Post-EGTRRA “Good Faith” Amendment Election Form, then except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (c) through (f) below, this Section applies to any Participant in the Plan that was affected by Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, or Wilma:

(a)

Qualified Hurricane Distributions. The following provisions apply to Qualified Hurricane Distributions:

(1)

Qualified Hurricane Distribution Not Subject to Code §72(t). Any Qualified Hurricane Distribution will not be subject to Code §72(t). The aggregate amount of distributions received by an individual which may be treated as Qualified Hurricane Distributions for any taxable year shall not exceed the excess (if any) of (A) $100,000, minus (B) the aggregate amounts treated as Qualified Hurricane Distributions received by such individual for all prior taxable years.

(2)

Clarification of Qualified Hurricane Distribution. If a distribution to an individual would (without regard to subparagraph (c)(1)) be a Qualified Hurricane Distribution, then this Plan shall not be treated as violating any requirement of subparagraph (c)(1) merely because the Plan treats such distribution as a Qualified Hurricane Distribution, unless the aggregate amount of such distributions from all plans (including this Plan) maintained by the Sponsor Employer (and any Affiliated Employer of the Sponsoring Employer) to such individual exceeds $100,000.

(3)

Exemption of Qualified Hurricane Distributions from Trustee to Trustee Transfer and Withholding Rules. For purposes of Code §401(a)(31), §402(f), and §3405, Qualified Hurricane Distributions shall not be treated as eligible rollover distributions.

(4)

Qualified Hurricane Distributions Treated as Meeting Plan Distribution Requirements. A Qualified Hurricane Distribution will be treated as meeting the requirements of Code §401(k)(2)(B)(i), §403(b)(7)(A)(ii), §403(b)(11), and §457(d)(1)(A).


DC Basic Plan		Page 5 of 34		July 2008

(b)

Procedural Requirements. Any otherwise applicable procedural requirements that are imposed by the Plan, any administrative policy, or any procedure may be disregarded with respect to any provision of this Section, so long as the Administrator makes a good-faith effort under the circumstances to comply with such requirements of the Plan, administrative policy, or procedure and makes a reasonable attempt to assemble any required documentation as soon as practical including, if applicable, Spousal consent.

(c)

Special Financial Hardship Distributions on Account of Hurricane Disasters. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then regardless of any other distribution provisions in the Plan to the contrary, a Participant or former Participant (1) whose Principal Place of Abode is/was located in the Hurricane Katrina Disaster Area, Hurricane Rita Disaster Area, or Hurricane Wilma Disaster Area; (2) whose place of employment is/was located in the Hurricane Katrina Disaster Area, Hurricane Rita Disaster Area, or Hurricane Wilma Disaster Area; or (3) whose lineal ascendant or descendant, dependent or Spouse has/had a Principal Place of Abode or place of employment in the Hurricane Katrina Disaster Area, Hurricane Rita Disaster Area, or Hurricane Wilma Disaster Area; and the Participant or former Participant, or the Participant’s (or former Participant’s) lineal ascendant or descendant, dependent, or Spouse faces an immediate and heavy financial need, may receive a special financial hardship distribution on or after August 29, 2005 and not later than March 31, 2006 of the Participant’s Elective Deferrals (as well as the Participant’s Vested Interest in the Participant’s Account or any sub-account of the Participant’s Account that is not prohibited by law or Regulation from being distributed as a hardship distribution). The determination of whether a Participant or former Participant, or the Participant’s (or former Participant’s) lineal ascendant or descendant, dependent, or Spouse has an immediate and heavy financial need will be made by the Administrator, subject to the following provisions:

(1)

Immediate and Heavy Financial Need. The determination by the Administrator of an immediate and heavy financial need will be based upon such severity that a Participant or former Participant, or the Participant’s (or former Participant’s) lineal ascendant or descendant, dependent, or Spouse is confronted or endangered by present or impending financial ruin, present or impending want, or privation. The Administrator will determine whether an immediate and heavy financial need exists based on all relevant facts and circumstances in a nondiscriminatory manner, and will not be limited to the circumstances enumerated in subparagraph (2) below. The Participant or former Participant must demonstrate the immediate and heavy financial need with positive evidence submitted to the Administrator, if positive evidence is readily available. However, the Administrator may rely upon representations from the Participant or former Participant as to the need for and amount of a financial hardship distribution, unless the Administrator has actual knowledge to the contrary.

In addition, any distribution from a Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account is not taken into account in determining whether distributions from the other Participant’s Account(s) are reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year. Furthermore, the provision of this Section that allows a Participant to elect a Direct Rollover of only a portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution (but only if the amount rolled over is at least $500) is applied by treating any amount distributed from the Participant’s Roth Elective Deferral Account as a separate distribution from any amount distributed from the other Participant’s Account(s) in the Plan, even if the amounts are distributed at the same time.

(c)

Definitions. As used in this Section, the following words and phrases have the following meanings:

(1)

Direct Rollover. The term “Direct Rollover” means a payment by the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan that is specified by the Distributee.

(2)

Distributee. The term “Distributee” means an Employee or former Employee. In addition, an Employee’s or former Employee’s surviving Spouse and an Employee’s or former Employee’s Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Code §414(p), are Distributees with regard to the interest of the Spouse or former Spouse.

(3)

Eligible Retirement Plan. The term “Eligible Retirement Plan” means, with respect to any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution that is paid in a Direct Rollover: (A) an individual retirement account described in Code §408(a); (B) an individual retirement annuity described in Code §408(b); (C) an annuity plan described in Code §403(a); (D) an annuity contract described in Code §403(b); (E) a qualified trust described in Code §401(a); (F) an eligible deferred compensation plan under Code §457(b) which is maintained by a State (or Commonwealth), a political subdivision of a State (or Commonwealth), or any agency or instrumentality of a State (or Commonwealth) or political subdivision of a State (or Commonwealth); and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan; or (G) effective January 1, 2008, a Roth individual retirement account as described in Code §408A(b), subject to the restrictions of Code §408A(c)(3)(B) for tax years beginning prior to January 1, 2010. This definition of Eligible Retirement Plan will also apply in the case of a distribution to a surviving Spouse, or to a Spouse or former Spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relation order, as defined in Code §414(p); such distribution will be made in the same manner as if the Spouse was the Employee. If any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution is attributable to payments or distributions from an individual’s Roth Elective Deferral Account (or the segregated portion of an individual’s Rollover Contribution Account that is attributable to Roth Elective Deferrals), then an Eligible Retirement Plan with respect to such portion will only be either another plan’s designated Roth account of the individual from whose account the payments or distributions were made, or such individual’s Roth individual retirement account as described in Code §408A(b).

(4)

Eligible Rollover Distribution. The term “Eligible Rollover Distribution” means any distribution of all or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include: (A) any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee’s designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; (B) any distribution to the extent that such distribution is a required minimum distribution under Code §401(a)(9); (C) if applicable to the Plan, the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to Employer securities); (D) if applicable to the Plan, corrective distributions of (i) Excess Deferrals as described in Regulation §1.402(g)–1(e)(3) including any income allocable to such corrective distributions; (ii) Excess Contributions under a 401(k) Plan described in Regulation §1.401(k)-1(f)(4) including any income allocable to such corrective distributions; and (iii) Excess Aggregate Contributions described in Regulation §1.401(m)–2(b)(2) including any income allocable to such distributions; (E) if applicable to the Plan, loans that are treated as deemed distributions pursuant to Code §72(p) (F) if applicable to the Plan, dividends paid on Employer securities as described in Code §404(k); (G) if applicable to the Plan, the costs of life insurance coverage (P.S. 58 costs); (H) if applicable to the Plan, prohibited allocations that are treated as deemed distributions pursuant to Code §409(p); (I) if applicable to the Plan, the portion of any distribution which is attributable to a financial hardship distribution; (J) if applicable to the Plan, effective for Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 2008, a distribution that is a permissible withdrawal from an eligible automatic contribution arrangement within the meaning of Code §414(w); and (K) any other distribution that is reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year.

2.3

Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. This Section is effective as of April 6, 2007. The term “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” or “QRDO” is amended to include (a) an order that is issued with respect to another domestic relations order or QDRO, including an order that revises or amends a prior order; (b) an order issued after the Participant’s Annuity Starting Date or death; or (c) an order that names as the alternate payee a person deemed financially dependent upon the Participant, provided that the other requirements for a QDRO as set forth in the Plan’s QDRO procedure and/or as defined in Code §414(p) are satisfied.

2.4

Determination Whether Partial Termination of the Plan Has Occurred. The determination of whether a partial termination of the Plan has occurred under Code §411(d)(3) depends on the facts and circumstances, pursuant to Revenue Ruling 2007-43. This determination is based upon the following provisions:

(a)

Extent to which Participants have a Termination of Employment. If the Turnover Rate is at least 20 percent, there is a presumption that a partial termination of the Plan has occurred.

(b)

Transfer to Affiliated Employer. Employees who have a Termination of Employment with the Employer on account of a transfer to an Affiliated Employer are not considered as having a Termination of Employment for purposes of calculating the Turnover Rate, if those Employees continue to be covered by the Plan or a plan that is a continuation of the Plan under which they were previously covered.

(c)

Facts and Circumstances. Whether a partial termination of the Plan occurs on account of Participant turnover (and the time of such event) depends on all the facts and circumstances in a particular case. Facts and circumstances indicating that the Turnover Rate for an Applicable Period is routine for the Employer favor a finding that there is no partial termination for that Applicable Period. For this purpose, information as to the Turnover Rate in other Applicable Periods and the extent to which Employees who Terminated Employment were actually replaced, whether the new Employees performed the same functions, had the same job classification or title, and received comparable Compensation are relevant to determining whether the turnover is routine for the Employer.

(d)

Effect of Partial Termination. If a partial termination occurs on account of turnover during an Applicable Period, then all Participants who had a Termination of Employment during the Applicable Period must be fully Vested in the amounts credited to their Participant’s Accounts.

(e)

Other Circumstances that May Trigger Partial Termination. A partial termination of the Plan can also occur for reasons other than turnover. A partial termination can occur due to Plan amendments that adversely affect the rights of Employees to Vest in benefits under the Plan, or Plan amendments that exclude a group of Employees who have previously been covered by the Plan.

(f)

Definitions. As used in this Section, the following words and phrases have the following meanings:

(1)

Applicable Period. The term “Applicable Period” means a period that depends upon the facts and circumstances: the Applicable Period is a Plan Year (or, if a Plan Year that is less than 12 consecutive months, then the Plan Year plus the immediately preceding Plan Year) or a longer period if there are a series of related Terminations of Employment.

(2)

Employer-Initiated Termination of Employment. The term “Employer-Initiated Termination of Employment” means generally any Termination of Employment other than a Termination of Employment on account of death, Disability, or retirement on or after Normal Retirement Age. An Employee’s Termination of Employment is an Employer-Initiated Termination of Employment even if it is caused by an event outside of the Employer’s control, such as Termination of Employment due to depressed economic conditions. In certain situations, the Employer may be able to verify that a Termination of Employment is not an Employer-Initiated Termination of Employment; a claim that a Termination of Employment is purely voluntary can be supported through items such as information from personnel files, Employee statements, and other corporate records.


DC Basic Plan		Page 15 of 34		July 2008

(3)

Turnover Rate. The term “Turnover Rate” means the percentage equal to the number of Participants who had an Employer-Initiated Termination of Employment during the Applicable Period, divided by the sum of (A) all Participants at the start of the Applicable Period, plus (B) the Employees who became Participants during the Applicable Period. All Participants are taken into account in calculating the Turnover Rate, including Vested Participants and non Vested Participants.

2.5

Code §415 Limitations Under the Final Code §415 Regulations. This Section is effective as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007 except as may otherwise be provided herein, and this Section applies for all Plan purposes.

(a)

Maximum Annual Addition. The maximum Annual Addition made to a Participant’s Account maintained under the Plan for any Limitation Year will not exceed the lesser of the Dollar Limitation set forth in paragraph (a)(1) or the Compensation Limitation set forth in paragraph (a)(2), as adjusted in the remainder of this Section (a), as follows:

(1)

Dollar Limitation. The Dollar Limitation is $40,000, as adjusted by the Treasury in accordance with
Code §415(d).

(2)

Compensation Limitation. The Compensation Limitation is an amount equal to 100% of the Participant’s Code §415(c)(3) Compensation for the Limitation Year. However, this limitation will not apply to any contribution made for medical benefits within the meaning of Code §401(h) or Code §419A(f)(2) after separation from service which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition under Code §415(1)(1) or Code §419A(d)(2).

(3)

Adjustments to Maximum Annual Addition. In applying the limitation on Annual Additions set forth herein, the following adjustments must be made:

(A)

Short Limitation Year. In a Limitation Year of less than 12 months, the Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation in paragraph (a)(1) will be adjusted by multiplying it by the ratio that the number of months in the short Limitation Year bears to 12.

(B)

Plans with Different Limitation Years. If a Participant participates in multiple Defined Contribution Plans sponsored by the Employer with different Limitation Years, the maximum Annual Addition in this Plan for the Limitation Year will be reduced by the Annual Additions credited to the Participant’s accounts in the other plans for such Limitation Year.

(C)

Plans with the Same Limitation Year. If a Participant participates in multiple Defined Contribution Plans sponsored by the Employer which have the same Limitation Year, then (i) if only one of the plans is subject to Code §412, Annual Additions will first be credited to the Participant’s accounts in the plan so subject; and (ii) if none of the plans are subject to Code §412, the maximum Annual Addition in this Plan for a given Limitation Year will either [a] equal the product of the maximum Annual Addition for such Limitation Year minus any other Annual Additions previously credited to the Participant’s account, multiplied by the ratio that the Annual Additions which would be credited to a Participant’s accounts hereunder without regard to the limitations regarding the Aggregation of Plans in paragraph (b) bears to the Annual Additions for all plans described in this paragraph, or [b] be reduced by the Annual Additions credited to the Participant’s accounts in the other plans for such Limitation Year.

(D)

Adjustment for Excessive Annual Additions. If for any Limitation Year the Annual Additions allocated to a Participant’s Account exceeds the maximum Annual Addition permitted under this Section, then the Sponsoring Employer will follow the rules of any Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS) that is issued by the Internal Revenue Service.

(b)

Aggregation of Plans. This Section (b) aggregates plans for purposes of applying the provisions of this Section and the rules of Regulation §1.415(f)-1.


DC Basic Plan		Page 16 of 34		July 2008

(1)

General Rule. Except as provided in this Section and Regulation §1.415(f)-1, for purposes of applying the limitations of this Section and Code §415(c) applicable to a Participant for a particular Limitation Year (A) all Defined Contribution Plans (without regard to whether a plan has been terminated) ever maintained by the Employer (or a predecessor Employer) under which the Participant receives Annual Additions are treated as one Defined Contribution Plan; and (B) all 403(b) annuity contracts purchased by an Employer (including plans purchased through salary reduction contributions) for the Participant are treated as one 403(b) annuity contract.

(2)

Affiliated Employers and Leased Employees. All Employees of all Affiliated Employers are treated as employed by a single Employer for Code §415 purposes. Any Defined Contribution Plan maintained by any Affiliated Employer is deemed maintained by all Affiliated Employers. Furthermore, under Code §414(n), with respect to any recipient for whom a Leased Employee performs services, the Leased Employee is treated as an Employee of the recipient, but contributions or benefits provided by the leasing organization that are attributable to services performed for the recipient are treated as provided under the plan maintained by the recipient. However, under Code §414(n)(5), the rule of the previous sentence does not apply to a Leased Employee with respect to services performed for a recipient if (A) the Leased Employee is covered by a plan that is maintained by the leasing organization and that meets the requirements of Code §414(n)(5)(B); and (B) Leased Employees do not constitute more than 20% of the recipient’s non-highly compensated workforce.

(3)

Formerly Affiliated Plan of an Employer. A Formerly Affiliated Plan of an Employer is taken into account for purposes of applying the aggregation rules of this Section to the Employer, but the Formerly Affiliated Plan of an Employer is treated as if it had terminated immediately prior to the cessation of affiliation, and had purchased annuities to provide benefits. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Formerly Affiliated Plan of an Employer” means a plan that, immediately prior to the Cessation of Affiliation, was actually maintained by one or more of the entities that constitute the Employer (as determined under the employer affiliation rules described in Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2)), and immediately after the Cessation of Affiliation, is not actually maintained by any of the entities that constitute the Employer (as determined under the employer affiliation rules described in Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2)). For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Cessation of Affiliation” means the event that causes an entity to no longer be aggregated with one or more other entities as a single Employer under the employer affiliation rules described in Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2) (such as the sale of a subsidiary outside a controlled group), or that causes a plan to not actually be maintained by any of the entities that constitute the Employer under the employer affiliation rules of Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2) (such as a transfer of plan sponsorship outside of a controlled group).

(4)

Predecessor Employer. For purposes of Code §415 and Regulations promulgated thereunder, a former employer is a predecessor employer with respect to a Participant in the Plan maintained by the Employer if the Employer maintains the Plan under which the Participant had accrued a benefit while performing services for the former employer (for example, the Employer assumed sponsorship of the former employer’s plan, or the Plan received a transfer of benefits from the former employer’s plan), but only if that benefit is provided under the Plan maintained by the Employer. In applying the limitations of Code §415 to a Participant in the Plan maintained by the Employer, the Plan must take into account benefits provided to the Participant under plans that are maintained by the predecessor employer and that are not maintained by the Employer; the Employer and predecessor employer constituted a single Employer under the rules described in Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2) immediately prior to the cessation of affiliation (as if they constituted two, unrelated employers under the rules described in Regulation §1.415(a)-1(f)(1) and (2) immediately after the cessation of affiliation) and cessation of affiliation was the event that gives rise to the predecessor employer relationship, such as a transfer of benefits or plan sponsorship. However, with respect to the Employer of the Participant, a former entity that antedates the Employer is a predecessor employer with respect to the Participant if, under the facts and circumstances, the Employer constitutes a continuation of all or a portion of the trade or business of the former entity. This occurs where formation of the Employer constitutes a mere formal or technical change in the employment relationship and continuity otherwise exists in the substance and administration of the business operations of the former entity and the Employer.

(5)

Nonduplication. In applying the limitations of Code §415 to the Plan maintained by an Employer, if the Plan is aggregated with another plan pursuant to the aggregation rules of this Section, then a Participant’s benefits are not counted more than once in determining the Participant’s aggregate Annual Additions, pursuant to the rules of Regulation §1.415(f)-1(d)(1).


DC Basic Plan		Page 17 of 34		July 2008

(6)

Previously Unaggregated Plans. The following rule applies to situations in which two or more existing plans, which previously were not required to be aggregated pursuant to Code §415(f), are aggregated during a particular Limitation Year and, as a result, the limitations of Code §415(b) or (c) are exceeded for that Limitation Year. Two or more Defined Contribution Plans that are not required to be aggregated pursuant to Code §415(f) as of the first day of a Limitation Year satisfy the requirements of Code §415 with respect to a Participant for the Limitation Year if they are aggregated later in that Limitation Year, provided that no Annual Additions are credited to the Participant’s Account after the date on which the plans are required to be aggregated.

(7)

Multiple Plan Fraction. The provisions of Code §415(e) shall not apply to this Plan for Limitation Years beginning on or after January 1, 2000 (or, if later, the first day of the Limitation Year in which Code §415(e) is not applicable to the Plan in whole or in part, pursuant to the provisions of the prior Plan document or separate Plan amendment).

(c)

Definitions. As used in this Section and for all Plan purposes, the following words and phrases have the following meanings:

(1)

Annual Additions. The term “Annual Additions” means the sum of the following amounts credited to a Participant’s Account for the Limitation Year:

(A)

Amounts That Are Included. The following amounts are included as Annual Additions: (i) Employer contributions, even if such contributions are Excess Contributions (as described in Code §401(k)(8)(B)) or Excess Aggregate Contributions (as described in Code §401(m)(6)(B)), or such Excess Contributions or Excess Aggregate Contributions are corrected through distribution; (ii) Employee Contributions, including Mandatory Employee Contributions (as defined in Code §411(c)(2)(C) and the Regulations thereunder) and Voluntary Employee Contributions; (iii) Forfeitures; (iv) contributions allocated to any individual medical account, as defined in Code §415(l)(2), which is part of a pension or annuity plan established pursuant to Code §401(h) and maintained by the Employer; (v) amounts attributable to post-retirement medical benefits allocated to a separate account for a Key Employee (any Employee who, at any time during the plan year or any preceding plan year, is or was a Key Employee pursuant to Code §419A(d)), maintained by the Employer; and (vi) effective as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, the difference between the value of any assets transferred to the Plan and the consideration, where an Employee or the Employer transfers assets to the Plan in exchange for consideration that is less than the fair market value of the assets transferred to the Plan.

(B)

Amounts That Are Not Included. Notwithstanding subparagraph (A), a Participant’s Annual Additions do not include the following: (i) the restoration of an Employee’s accrued benefit by the Employer under Code §411(a)(3)(D) or Code §411(a)(7)(C) or resulting from the repayment of cashouts (as described in Code §415(k)(3)) under a governmental plan (as defined in Code §414(d)) for the Limitation Year in which the restoration occurs, regardless of whether the Plan restricts the timing of repayments to the maximum extent allowed by Code §411(a); (ii) Catch-Up Contributions made under Code §414(v) and Regulation §1.414(v)-1; (iii) effective as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, a Restorative Payment that is allocated to a Participant’s Account. For purposes of this clause, the term “Restorative Payment” means a payment made to restore some or all of the Plan’s losses resulting from an action (or a failure to act) by a fiduciary for which there is reasonable risk of liability for breach of a fiduciary duty (other than a breach of fiduciary duty arising from failure to remit contributions to the Plan) under ERISA or under other applicable federal or state law, where Participants who are similarly situated are treated similarly with respect to the payments. This includes payments to the Plan made pursuant to a Department of Labor order, the Department of Labor’s Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program, or a court-approved settlement, to restore losses to a qualified Defined Contribution Plan. Payments made to the Plan to make up for losses due merely to market fluctuations and other payments that are not made on account of a reasonable risk of liability for breach of a fiduciary duty under Title I of ERISA are not Restorative Payments and generally constitute contributions that give rise to Annual Additions; (iv) Excess Elective Deferrals that are distributed in accordance with Regulation §1.402(g)-1(e)(2) or (3); (v) Rollover Contributions (as described in Code §401(a)(31), §402(c)(1), §403(a)(4), §403(b)(8), §408(d)(3), and §457(e)(16)); (vi) repayments of loans made to a Participant from the Plan; (vii) repayments of prior Plan distributions described in Code §411(a)(7)(B) (in accordance with Code §411(a)(7)(C)) and Code §411(a)(3)(D) or repayment of contributions to a governmental plan (as defined in Code §414(d)) as described in Code §415(k)(3); (viii) Transfer Contributions from a qualified plan to a Defined Contribution Plan; (ix) the reinvestment of dividends on Employer securities under an employee stock ownership plan pursuant to Code §404(k)(2)(A)(iii)(II); and (x) Employee contributions to a qualified cost of living arrangement within the meaning of Code §415(k)(2)(B).

(2)

Code §415(c)(3) Compensation. The term “Code §415(c)(3) Compensation” means, for the specific purposes and as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, either Form W-2 Compensation, Code §3401 Compensation, Safe Harbor Code §415 Compensation, or Statutory Code §415 Compensation during the entire Compensation Determination Period that statutorily applies, subject to the following rules:

(C)

Treatment of Post-Severance Compensation. Effective January 1, 2005, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation includes Post-Severance Compensation.

(D)

Code §401(a)(17) Annual Compensation Limit. Effective as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit that applies to that Limitation Year. If the Limitation Year is not the calendar year, then the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit that applies to such Limitation Year is the Code §401(a)(17) Compensation Limit in effect for the respective calendar year in which such Limitation Year begins.

(E)

Compensation Earned in Limitation Year but Paid in Next Limitation Year. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then effective as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning on or after July 1, 2007, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation for any Limitation Year will include any amounts earned during that Limitation Year but not paid during that Limitation Year solely because of the timing of pay periods and pay dates if (i) these amounts are paid during the first few weeks of the next Limitation Year; (ii) the amounts are included on a uniform and consistent basis with respect to all similarly situated Employees; and (iii) no Code §415(c)(3) Compensation is included in more than one Limitation Year.

(3)

Defined Contribution Plan. The term “Defined Contribution Plan” means a defined contribution plan within the meaning of Code §414(i) (including the portion of a plan treated as a defined contribution plan under the rules of Code §414(k)) that is (A) a plan described in Code §401(a) which includes a trust which is exempt from tax under Code §501(a); (B) an annuity plan described in Code §403(a); (C) a simplified employee pension described in Code §408(k); (D) an arrangement which is treated as a Defined Contribution Plan for purposes of this Section, Code §415 and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, according to the following rules: (i) Mandatory Employee Contributions (as defined in Code §411(c)(2)(C) and Regulation §1.411(c)-1(c)(4), regardless of whether the Plan is subject to the requirements of Code §411) to a defined benefit plan, are treated as contributions to a Defined Contribution Plan. For this purpose, contributions that are picked up by the Employer as described in Code §414(h)(2) are not considered Employee Contributions; (ii) contributions allocated to any individual medical benefit account which is part of a pension or annuity plan established pursuant to Code §401(h) are treated as contributions to a Defined Contribution Plan pursuant to Code §415(l)(1); (iii) amounts attributable to post-retirement medical benefits allocated to an account established for a Key Employee (any Employee who, at any time during the plan year or any preceding plan year, is or was a Key Employee pursuant to Code §419A(d)(1)) are treated as contributions to a Defined Contribution Plan pursuant to Code §419A(d)(2); and (iv) Annual Additions under an annuity contract described in Code §403(b) are treated as Annual Additions under a Defined Contribution Plan.

(A)

Exclusion of Certain Amounts. Safe Harbor Code §415 Compensation does not include (1) Contributions (other than elective contributions described in Code §402(e)(3), §408(k)(6), §408(p)(2)(A)(i), or §457(b)) made by the Employer to a plan of deferred compensation (including a simplified employee pension described in Code §408(k) or a simple retirement account described in Code §408(p), and whether or not qualified) to the extent that the contributions are not includible in the gross income of the Employee for the taxable year in which contributed. In addition, any distributions from a plan of deferred compensation (whether or not qualified) are not considered Safe Harbor Code §415 Compensation, regardless of whether such amounts are includible in the gross income of the Employee when distributed.

(B)

Exclusion of Certain Amounts. Statutory Code §415 Compensation does not include (1) Contributions (other than elective contributions described in Code §402(e)(3), §408(k)(6), §408(p)(2)(A)(i), or §457(b)) made by the Employer to a plan of deferred compensation (including a simplified employee pension described in Code §408(k) or a simple retirement account described in Code §408(p), and whether or not qualified) to the extent that the contributions are not includible in the gross income of the Employee for the taxable year in which contributed. In addition, any distributions from a plan of deferred compensation (whether or not qualified) are not considered Statutory Code §415 Compensation, regardless of whether such amounts are includible in the gross income of the Employee when distributed. However, any amounts received by an Employee pursuant to a nonqualified unfunded deferred compensation plan are Statutory Code §415 Compensation in the year the amounts are actually received, but only to the extent such amounts are includible in the Employee’s gross income; (2) Amounts realized from the exercise of a nonstatutory option (which is an option other than a statutory option as defined in Regulation §1.421-1(b)), or when restricted stock or other property held by an Employee either becomes freely transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture pursuant to Code §83 and Regulations promulgated under Code §83); (3) Amounts realized from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of stock acquired under a statutory stock option (as defined in Regulation §1.421-1(b)); (4) Other amounts that receive special tax benefits, such as premiums for group term life insurance (but only to the extent that the premiums are not includible in the gross income of the Employee and are not salary reduction amounts that are described in Code §125); and (5) Other items of remuneration that are similar to any of the items listed in clauses (1) through (4) of this paragraph.

(C)

Inclusion of Certain Amounts. Statutory Code §415 Compensation includes any Elective Deferral as defined in Code §402(g)(3) and any amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer at the election of the Employee which are not includible in gross income by reason of Code §125 (and Deemed Code §125 Compensation), Code §132(f)(4), or Code §457.

(D)

Treatment of Post-Severance Compensation. Effective January 1, 2005, Statutory Code §415 Compensation includes Post-Severance Compensation.

(6)

Post-Severance Compensation. The term “Post-Severance Compensation” means the following amounts that would have been included in the definition of Code §415(c)(3) Compensation if the amounts were paid prior to the Employee’s Termination of Employment and that are paid to the Employee by the later of 2 ¹ / ₂ months after Termination of Employment or the end of the Limitation Year that includes the Employee’s date of Termination of Employment:

(A)

Regular Pay After Termination. Regular pay after Termination of Employment will be considered Post-Severance Compensation if (i) the payment is regular compensation for services during the Employee’s regular working hours, or compensation for services outside the Employee’s regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential), commissions, bonuses, or other similar payments; and (ii) the payment would have been paid prior to Termination of Employment if the Employee had continued in employment with the Employer.


DC Basic Plan		Page 21 of 34		July 2008

(B)

Leave Cashouts and Deferred Compensation. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then leave cashouts and deferred compensation will be considered Post-Severance Compensation if the amount is either (i) payment for unused accrued bona fide sick, vacation, or other leave, but only if the Employee would have been able to use the leave if employment had continued; or (ii) received by an Employee pursuant to a nonqualified unfunded deferred compensation plan, but only if the payment would have been paid to the Employee at the same time if the Employee had continued in employment with the Employer and only to the extent that the payment is includible in the Employee’s gross income.

(C)

Imputed Compensation when Participant Becomes Disabled. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form and a Participant in a Defined Contribution Plan becomes permanently and totally disabled as defined in Code §22(e)(3), then notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Section to the contrary, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed during the time the Participant is permanently and totally disabled. The rate that Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed to such Participant is equal to the rate of Code §415(c)(3) Compensation that was paid to the Participant immediately before becoming permanently and totally disabled. The total period in which Code §415(c)(3) Compensation will be imputed to a Participant in the Defined Contribution Plan who becomes permanently and totally disabled will be determined pursuant to a nondiscriminatory policy established by the Administrator; however, if Code §415(c)(3) Compensation is imputed to a Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee pursuant to this paragraph, then the continuation of any Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions to such Participant will be for a fixed or determinable period pursuant to Code §415(c)(3)(C).

(D)

Continuation of Compensation while in Qualified Military Service. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Section to the contrary, Code §415(c)(3) Compensation includes payments by the Employer to an individual who does not currently perform services for the Employer by reason of qualified military service (as that term is used in Code §414(u)(1)), to the extent those payments do not exceed the amounts the individual would have received if the individual had continued to perform services for the Employer rather than entering qualified military service.

2.6

Vesting of Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Accounts. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006. This Section applies to the Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Accounts of the Plan, subject to the following rules and provisions:

(a)

Participants to Whom the Post-2006 Vesting Schedule Relates. As elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, the Post-2006 Vesting Schedule applies to the Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account of either: (1) any Participant who completes an Hour of Service during any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006; or (2) any Participant (regardless of whether such Participant has Terminated Employment) who has a Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account balance during any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006 and whose Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account has not become subject to the Forfeiture provisions of the Plan prior to the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006.

(b)

Account Balances to Which the Post-2006 Vesting Schedule Relates. As elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, the Post-2006 Vesting Schedule applies to either (1) the entire Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account; or (2) the portion of the Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account to which is allocated Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions, Forfeitures, and earnings for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006 (and subsequent earnings attributable to such allocations). The portion of the Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account to which was allocated Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contributions, Forfeitures, and earnings for Plan Years beginning prior to January 1, 2007 (and subsequent earnings attributable to such allocations) will remain subject to the Pre-2007 Vesting Schedule without regard to this Section or the Vesting schedule selected in the current Plan document that applies to Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Accounts.

(c)

Protection of Participant’s Vested Interest. This Section will not directly or indirectly reduce a Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Employee who is a Participant as of the later of (1) the date that this Section is adopted or (2) the date that this Section becomes effective, the Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account determined as of such date will not be less than the Participant’s Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account computed by using the Pre-2007 Vesting Schedule.


DC Basic Plan		Page 22 of 34		July 2008

(d)

Participant’s Special Election. Any Participant with at least three Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable, for Vesting purposes may, by filing a written request with the Administrator, elect to have the Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account computed by using the Pre-2007 Vesting Schedule. A Participant who fails to make an election will have the Vested Interest in his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account computed by using the Post-2006 Vesting Schedule. The period in which the election may be made will begin on the date that this Section is adopted or is deemed to have been made and will end on the latest of (1) sixty days after this Section is adopted; (2) sixty (60) days after this Section becomes effective; or (3) sixty days after the Participant is given written notice of this Section by the Sponsoring Employer or Administrator. However, no election need be provided to any Participant whose Vested percentage on and after the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006, at any time is not less than the Vested percentage computed by using the Pre-2007 Vesting Schedule. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, a Participant with at least three Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable, for Vesting purposes will be provided at all times with a Vested percentage of his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account that is not less than the Vested percentage of his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account computed by using Post-2006 Vesting Schedule and the Vesting percentage of his or her Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account computed by using the Pre-2007 Vesting Schedule.

(e)

Application of this Section to the Participant’s Account. If the Plan is a profit sharing volume submitter plan, a money purchase volume submitter plan, or a target benefit volume submitter plan, then the “Employer’s contribution” is substituted for the “Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution;” and the “Participant’s Account” is substituted for the “Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account” throughout this Section. Furthermore, if the Plan had Prevailing Wage Accounts that did not comply with the Vesting requirements of PPA§ 904 as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006, then the “Prevailing Wage Contribution” is substituted for the “Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution;” and the “Prevailing Wage Account” is substituted for the “Non-Safe Harbor Non-Elective Contribution Account” throughout this Section

2.7

Diversification. If all or a portion of a Participant’s Account is invested in Employer Securities on or after the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006, then this Section is effective as of the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006, and the Plan is subject to the following:

(a)

General Divestment Provisions. Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Participant (and the Participant’s Beneficiary who has an account in the Plan with respect to which the Beneficiary is entitled to exercise the rights of the Participant) may elect to divest the Participant’s Account of Employer Securities and reinvest the proceeds in alternative investment options described in paragraph (c) below. Notice must be given to Participants and/or Beneficiaries not later than 30 days prior to the date on which they will have the right to divest Employer Securities. Furthermore, this paragraph applies to a Participant’s Voluntary Employee Contribution Account, Mandatory Employee Contribution Account, and/or Elective Deferral Account, if applicable to the Plan, without applying the restrictions of paragraph (b).

(b)

Special Restrictions and Conditions on Employer Contributions (Other Than Elective Deferrals). Special restrictions and conditions apply to a Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions (other than a Participant’s Elective Deferral Account) that are invested in Employer Securities:

(1)

Individuals Who Are Affected. The individuals who will have the right to divest a Participant’s Account of amounts attributable to Employer contributions (other than Elective Deferrals) that are invested in Employer Securities will be limited to the following: (A) a Participant who has completed at least three (3) Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable; (B) a Beneficiary of a Participant who has completed at least three (3) Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable; and (C) a Beneficiary of a deceased Participant.

(2)

Employer Securities Acquired on or After January 1, 2007. To the extent that all or a portion of a Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions (other than a Participant’s Elective Deferral Account) consists of Employer Securities that were acquired in a Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 2007, the divestment requirements will apply to the total amount of the Employer Securities acquired with such Employer contributions.

(3)

Employer Securities Acquired Before January 1, 2007. To the extent that all or a portion of a Participant’s Account attributable to Employer contributions (other than a Participant’s Elective Deferral Account) consists of Employer Securities acquired in a Plan Year beginning before January 1, 2007, the divestment requirements only apply to a portion of the Employer Securities acquired with such Employer contributions. Such portion will be equal to 33% of such Employer Securities for the first Plan Year, 66% for the second such Plan Year, and 100% for the third Plan Year.

(4)

Restrictions Applied Separately to Each Class of Employer Securities. The special restrictions and conditions of this paragraph (b) will be applied separately with respect to each class of Employer Securities held in the Participant’s Account. Furthermore, the special restrictions and conditions of this paragraph (b) will not apply to the extent that a Participant has attained age 55 or completed at least three (3) Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service, as applicable, before the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2005; instead, paragraph (a) will apply.

(c)

Alternative Investment Options. The Plan will offer at least three (3) investment options other than Employer Securities, to which a Participant or, if applicable, his or her Beneficiary can direct the proceeds from the divestment of Employer Securities. Each investment option will be diverse from the other investment options, having materially different risk and return characteristics. The divestment direction can be limited to periodic, reasonable opportunities no less frequently than quarterly, in accordance with procedures set forth by the Administrator. The Plan will not impose restrictions or conditions with respect to the investment of Employer Securities which are not imposed on the investment of other assets of the Plan, except as required by securities laws or other Regulations.

DC Basic Plan		Page 24 of 34		July 2008

2.8

Calculation of Gap Period Income for Excess Elective Deferrals. If the Plan is a Code §401(k) Plan, then this Section is effective for distributions of Excess Elective Deferrals (as defined in Code §402(g)(2)(A)) in taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2007, and will apply to Excess Elective Deferrals that occur in taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2006. Excess Elective Deferrals will be adjusted for any income or loss up to the end of the Plan Year and during the end of the Plan Year and the actual date of distribution (the “gap period”), until repealed by any Regulation, IRS pronouncement, or statute. Any adjustment for income or loss during the gap period will be allocated in a consistent manner to all Participants and to all corrective distributions of Excess Elective Deferrals made for the Plan Year, and will be the amount determined by one of the methods set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) or (c), as elected by the Administrator:

(a)

Method 1. The amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the taxable year and the gap period, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s Excess Elective Deferrals for the taxable year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account balance as of the beginning of the Participant’s taxable year plus any Elective Deferrals allocated to the Participant during the taxable year and the gap period.

(b)

Method 2. The sum of (1) and (2) as follows: (1) the amount determined by multiplying the income or loss allocable to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals for the taxable year, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s Excess Elective Deferrals for the taxable year and the denominator of which is the Participant’s Elective Deferral Account balance as of the beginning of the Participant’s taxable year plus any Elective Deferrals allocated to the Participant during such taxable year; plus (2) the amount of gap period income or loss equal to 10% of the amount determined under clause (1) above multiplied by the number of whole months between the end of the Participant’s taxable year and the distribution date, counting the month of distribution if the distribution occurs after the 15th day of such month.

(c)

Method 3. The amount determined by any reasonable method of allocating income or loss to the Participant’s Excess Elective Deferrals for the taxable year and for the gap period, provided the method used is the same method used for allocating income or losses to the Participant’s Account (or any sub-account of the Participant’s Account). This Plan will not fail to use a reasonable method for computing the income allocable to excess deferrals merely because the income allocable to such excess deferrals is determined on a date that is no more than 7 days before the distribution.

2.9

Rollover by a Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective as of the effective date elected in the Election Form. A Beneficiary who (a) is other than the Participant’s Spouse and (b) is considered to be a Designated Beneficiary under Code §401(a)(9)(E) (known as a “Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary”) may establish an individual retirement account under Code §408(a) or an individual retirement annuity under Code §408(b) (known as an “Inherited IRA”) into which all or a portion of a death benefit (to which such Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary is entitled) can be transferred in a direct trustee-to trustee transfer (a direct rollover). Notwithstanding the above, any amount payable to a Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary that is deemed to be a required minimum distribution pursuant to Code §401(a)(9) may not be transferred into such Inherited IRA. The Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary may deposit into such Inherited IRA all or any portion of the death benefit that is deemed to be an eligible rollover distribution (but for the fact that the distribution is not an eligible rollover distribution because the distribution is being paid to a Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary). In determining the portion of such death benefit that is considered to be a required minimum distribution that must be made from the Inherited IRA, the Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary may elect to use either the 5-year rule or the life expectancy rule, pursuant to Regulation §1.401(a)(9)-3, Q&A-4(c). Any distribution made pursuant to this Section is not subject to the direct rollover requirements of Code §401(a)(31), the notice requirements of Code §402(f), or the mandatory withholding requirements of Code §3405(c). If a Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary receives a distribution from the Plan, then the distribution is not eligible for the “60-day” rollover rule, which is available to a Beneficiary who is a Spouse. If the Participant’s Non-Spouse Designated Beneficiary is a trust, then the Plan may make a direct rollover to an IRA on behalf of the trust, provided the trust satisfies the requirements to be a Designated Beneficiary within the meaning of Code §401(a)(9)(E).

2.10

Money Purchase or Target Benefit Plan In-Service Distributions. If the Plan is either a money purchase plan or a target benefit plan and if elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective as of the effective date elected in the Election Form. A Participant who has attained the Age that is elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form and who has not yet Terminated Employment may elect to receive a distribution of his or her Vested Account Balance.

2.11

Qualified Default Investment Alternative. If the Plan has an Eligible Automatic Contribution Arrangement as described in Code §414(w)(3), then this Section is effective as of the date of the Eligible Automatic Contribution Arrangement (unless an earlier effective date is elected in the Election Form). If the prior sentence does not apply to the Plan and if elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then this Section is effective as of the date elected in the Election Form. If the Plan gives Participants or Beneficiaries the opportunity to direct the investment of any assets in the Participant’s Account (or any sub-account) and if any Participant or Beneficiary does not direct the investment of such assets, then such assets in the Participant’s Account (or such sub-account(s)) will be invested in a Qualified Default Investment Alternative (“QDIA”), subject to the following:

(a)

Transfer from QDIA. Any Participant or Beneficiary on whose behalf assets are invested in a QDIA may transfer, in whole or in part, such assets to any other investment alternative available under the Plan with a frequency consistent with that afforded to a Participant or Beneficiary who elected to invest in the QDIA, but not less frequently than once within any 3-month period.

(1)

No Fees During First 90 Days. A Participant’s or Beneficiary’s election to make such transfer from the QDIA during the 90-day period beginning on the date of the first investment in a QDIA on behalf of a Participant or Beneficiary or, if the Participant has the opportunity to receive a Permissible Withdrawal, a Permissible Withdrawal during the 90-day period beginning on the date of the Participant’s first Elective Deferral under Code §414(w)(2)(B), will not be subject to any restrictions, fees or expenses (including surrender charges, liquidation or exchange fees, redemption fees and similar expenses charged in connection with the liquidation of, or transfer from, the investment), except as permitted in Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404c-5(c)(5)(ii)(B).

(2)

Limited Fees after First 90 Days. Following the end of the 90-day period described in paragraph (1), any transfer from the QDIA or, if the Participant has the opportunity to receive a Permissible Withdrawal, a Permissible Withdrawal, will not be subject to any restrictions, fees or expenses not otherwise applicable to a Participant or Beneficiary who elected to invest in that QDIA.

(b)

Broad Range of Investment Alternatives. The Plan must offer a “broad range of investment alternatives” within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404c–1(b)(3).

(c)

Materials Must Be Provided. A fiduciary must provide to a Participant or Beneficiary the materials in Department of Labor Regulation §2550.404c-1(b)(2)(i)(B)(1)(viii) and (ix) and Department of Labor Regulation §404c-1(b)(2)(i)(B)(2) relating to a Participant’s or Beneficiary’s investment in a QDIA.

(d)

Content and Timing of Notice. The following provisions apply to the notice required by a QDIA:

(1)

Manner and Content. Such notice must be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the average Participant, and must contain the following: (A) a description of the circumstances under which assets in the Participant’s Account (or any sub-account of the Participant’s Account) of a Participant or Beneficiary may be invested on behalf of the Participant or Beneficiary in a QDIA; and, if applicable, an explanation of the circumstances under which Elective Deferrals will be made on behalf of a Participant, the percentage of such Elective Deferrals, and the right of the Participant to elect not to have such Elective Deferrals made on the Participant’s behalf (or to elect to have such Elective Deferrals made at a different percentage); (B) an explanation of the right of Participants and Beneficiaries to direct the investment of assets in their Participant’s Accounts (or any sub-accounts of the Participant’s Account); (C) a description of the QDIA, including a description of the investment objectives, risk and return characteristics (if applicable), and fees and expenses attendant to the QDIA; (D) a description of the right of the Participants and Beneficiaries on whose behalf assets are invested in a QDIA to direct the investment of those assets to any other investment alternative under the Plan, including a description of any applicable restrictions, fees or expenses in connection with such transfer; and (E) an explanation of where the Participants and Beneficiaries can obtain investment information concerning the other investment alternatives available under the Plan.

(2)

Timing. The Participant or Beneficiary on whose behalf an investment in a QDIA may be made must be furnished such notice during the following periods: (A) at least 30 days in advance of the Participant’s Entry Date of the Plan (or any component of the Plan in which a Participant’s Account (or any sub-account of the Participant’s Account) may be invested in a QDIA); or at least 30 days in advance of the date of any first investment in a QDIA on behalf of a Participant or Beneficiary; or if the Participant has the opportunity to receive a Permissible Withdrawal, on or before the Participant’s Entry Date of the Elective Deferral component of the Plan; and (B) within a reasonable period of time of at least 30 days in advance of each subsequent Plan Year.

(A)

Age Only. The time that a Participant attains the Age that is elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form.

(B)

(1)

Rules of QACA Matching Contribution. If the QACA Contribution is satisfied with a QACA Matching Contribution, then the ratio of QACA Matching Contributions to Elective Deferrals of any Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee must not exceed the ratio of QACA Matching Contributions to Elective Deferrals of any Participant who is a Non-Highly Compensated Employee with Elective Deferrals at the same percentage of Compensation as any Highly Compensated Employee. Also, the ratio of a Participant’s QACA Matching Contributions to the Participant’s Elective Deferrals may not increase as the amount of a Participant’s Elective Deferrals increases.

(2)

Plan to Which QACA Contribution Will Be Made. As elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, the QACA Contribution will be made to either (A) this Plan; or (B) another plan as elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, so long as that other plan meets the requirements of Code §401(k)(12)(F) and the Regulations thereunder.

(3)

QACA Contribution Subject to Withdrawal Restrictions. The QACA Contribution is subject to the withdrawal restrictions set forth in Code §401(k)(2)(B) and Regulation §1.401(k)-1(d).

(b)

Vesting of QACA Contribution Account. A Participant’s Vested Interest in a QACA Contribution Account will be determined by the Vesting schedule elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form. If the Counting of Hours Method is used for Vesting purposes, then a Participant’s Vested Interest will be based on the Years of Service that are credited to such Participant. If the Elapsed Time Method is used for Vesting purposes, then a Participant’s Vested Interest will be based on the 1-Year Periods of Service that are credited to the Participant. If elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, then in determining a Participant’s Vested Interest under this paragraph, a Participant’s Years of Service or 1-Year Periods of Service will be disregarded: (1) during any period for which the Employer did not maintain this Plan or a predecessor plan; (2) if the Counting of Hours Method is used for Vesting purposes, then before the Vesting Computation Period in which the Participant attains Age 18; and/or (3) if the Elapsed Time Method is used for Vesting purposes, then before the 1-Year Period of Service in which the Participant attains Age 18. The Vesting schedules available in the Election Form are:

(1)

100% Full and Immediate. A Participant’s QACA Contribution Account will be 100% Vested upon the Participant entering the Elective Deferral component of Plan and at all times thereafter.


(2) 2 Year Cliff.	1 Year/Period of Service	0% Vested Interest
	2 Years/Periods of Service	100% Vested Interest

(3)

Other. A Participant’s QACA Contribution Account will be Vested in accordance with the schedule selected in the Election Form, provided that the Participant’s QACA Contribution Account is 100% Vested upon the Participant being credited with at least 2 Years/1-Year Periods of Service.

(c)

Usage of Forfeitures. If the QACA Contribution is subject to a Vesting schedule other than 100% Vested upon the Participant entering the Elective Deferral component of Plan and at all times thereafter, then with respect to any Forfeiture of the non-Vested Interest in a Participant’s QACA Contribution Account, the Administrator may elect to use all or a portion of the Forfeitures to pay administrative expenses incurred by the Plan. The portion that is not used to pay administrative expenses may be used to restore previous Forfeitures of Participants’ Accounts as necessary and permitted pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. As elected by the Sponsoring Employer in the Election Form, the portion of the Forfeitures that are not used to pay administrative expenses and are not used to satisfy the provisions of the previous sentence then either: (1) will be used to reduce any Employer contribution or combination of Employer contributions, as determined by the Administrator; or (2) will be added to any Employer contribution or combination of Employer contributions, as determined by the Administrator.

(d)

Exemption from ADP Test. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Amendment to the contrary, the Plan will be treated as meeting the ADP Test as set forth in Code §401(k)(3)(A)(ii) in any Plan Year in which the Plan includes a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement pursuant to PPA §902(a), which added Code §401(k)(13)(A).

(e)

Limited Exemption from ACP Test. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Amendment to the contrary, the Plan will be treated as having satisfied the ACP Test under Code §401(m)(2) only with respect to the QACA Matching Contributions in any Plan Year in which the Plan includes a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement pursuant to PPA §902(b), which revised Code §401(m)(12).


DC Basic Plan		Page 30 of 34		July 2008

(f)

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Amendment to the contrary, with respect to any Plan Year in which the allocations of the Plan consist solely of (1) Elective Deferrals under a Qualified Automatic Contribution Arrangement which meets the requirements of Code §401(k)(13); and (2) either (A) QACA Non-Elective Contributions which meet the requirements of Code §401(k)(13), or (B) QACA Matching Contributions which meet the requirements of Code §401(m)(12), then the Plan will not be treated as a Top Heavy Plan and is exempt from the Top Heavy requirements of Code §416. Furthermore, if the Plan (but for the prior sentence) would be treated as a Top Heavy Plan because the Plan is a member of either a Required Aggregation Group which is a Top Heavy or a Permissive Aggregation Group which is a Top Heavy, then the QACA Contributions under this Plan may be taken into account in determining whether any other plan in either the Required Aggregation Group or the Permissive Aggregation Group meets the Top Heavy requirements of Code §416.

(g)

QDIA.

(b)

An individual who is considered an Employee because he or she is receiving Differential Wage Payments will still be treated as having incurred a severance from employment for purposes of this Section 5.2.

(c)

The availability of such distribution shall not cause any Participant to be treated as having incurred a severance from employment for any other purpose under the Plan or any other Code section.

(d)

If a Participant who takes a distribution pursuant to this Section 5.2 is considered to have Terminated Employment under the terms of the Plan, such individual is eligible for all distribution options available upon Termination of Employment under the Plan, and not this Section 5.2.

Re:

Registration on Form S-8 of Western Digital Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be submitted by Western Digital Corporation (the “Company”) to the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to Western Digital Corporation 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”), you have requested our opinion as to whether the provisions of the written documents constituting the Plan comply with the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

We have been advised by you that the form of Plan document, as adopted effective January 1, 2010, received a favorable opinion letter, dated March 31, 2008, from the Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”) that it is acceptable under section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), for use by employers for the benefit of their employees (the “Opinion Letter”). We have also been advised by you that certain Plan amendments have been adopted on or about September 27, 2010, December 6, 2011, January 3, 2012, April 23, 2012, November 29, 2012 and February 15, 2013. We have also been advised by you that except with respect to (i) amendments which the Service has indicated would not cause the Plan to be treated as an individually designed plan, (ii) a “Match Addendum” setting forth certain terms for the allocation of employer matching contributions, and (iii) the limitation to HGST America employees of the ability to make in-kind rollover contributions, the form of the Plan, as amended, is identical to the form approved by the Service in the Opinion Letter. You have advised us that the Plan will be timely amended with respect to any additional amendments required by the Service as a condition to maintaining the tax-qualified status of the Plan.

Based on the foregoing, and our examination of the Plan and accompanying trust, it is our opinion that the form of the Plan satisfies the essential substantive requirements of ERISA and the Code. Our opinion and the Opinion Letter issued by the Service cover only the form of the Plan and leave open the question of whether, in operation, the Plan is qualified.

Respectfully submitted,
