Common use of Correction Clause in Contracts

Correction. Employer C uses the VCS correction method for partial year exclusions to correct the failure to include the eligible employee in the plan. Thus, Employer C makes a corrective contribution (that satisfies the vesting requirements and distribution limitations of □ 401(k)(2)(B) and (C)) for the excluded employee. In determining the amount of corrective contributions (both for the elective deferral and for the matching contribution), for administrative convenience, in lieu of using actual plan compensation of $23,500 for the period the employee was excluded, the employee's annual plan compensation is pro rated for the eight-month period that the employee was excluded from participating in the plan. The failure to provide the excluded employee the right to make elective deferrals is corrected by the employer making a corrective contribution on behalf of the employee that is equal to $720 (the 3% ADP percentage for nonhighly compensated employees multiplied by $24,000, which is 8/12ths of the employee's 1996 plan compensation of $36,000), adjusted for earnings. In addition, to correct for the failure to receive the plan's matching contribution, a corrective contribution is made on behalf of the employee that is equal to $432 (the 1.8% ACP for the nonhighly compensated group multiplied by $24,000, which is 8/12ths of the employee's 1996 plan compensation of $36,000), adjusted for earnings. Employer C determines that $682, the sum of the actual matching contribution received by the employee for the plan year ($250) and the corrective contribution to correct the matching contribution failure ($432), does not exceed $720, the maximum matching contribution available to the employee under the plan (2% of $36,000) determined as if the employee had made the maximum matchable contributions. In addition to correcting the failure to include the eligible employee in the plan, Employer C reruns the ADP and ACP tests for 1996 (taking into account the corrective contribution and plan compensation for 1996 for the excluded employee) and determines that the tests were satisfied. Example 6: The facts are the same as in Example 5, except that the plan provides for matching contributions that are equal to 100% of an eligible employee's elective deferrals that do not exceed 2% of the employee's plan compensation for the plan year. Accordingly, the actual matching contribution made by Employer C for the excluded employee for the last four months of 1996 is $500 (which is equal to 100% of the $500 of elective deferrals made by the employee for the last four months of 1996).

Correction. Employer C uses the VCS correction method for partial year exclusions to correct the failure to include the eligible employee in the plan. Thus, Employer C makes a corrective contribution (that satisfies the vesting requirements and distribution limitations of □ § 401(k)(2)(B) and (C)) for the excluded employee.

Employer C determines that $682, the sum of the actual matching contribution received by the employee for the plan year ($250) and the corrective contribution to correct the matching contribution failure ($432), does not exceed $720, the maximum matching contribution available to the employee under the plan (2% of $36,000) determined as if the employee had made the maximum matchable contributions.

Thus, Employer C makes a corrective contribution (that satisfies the vesting requirements and distribution dis- tribution limitations of □ § 401(k)(2)(B) and (C)) for the excluded employee.

The failure to provide the excluded employee the right to make elective deferrals is corrected by the employer making a corrective contribution on behalf of the employee that is equal to $720 (the 3% ADP percentage for nonhighly non- highly compensated employees multiplied by $24,000, which is 8/12ths of the employee's ’s 1996 plan compensation of $36,000), adjusted for earnings. In addition, to correct for the failure fail- ure to receive the plan's ’s matching contribution, a corrective contribution is made on behalf of the employee that is equal to $432 (the 1.8% ACP for the nonhighly compensated group multiplied mul- tiplied by $24,000, which is 8/12ths of the employee's ’s 1996 plan compensation of $36,000), adjusted for earnings. Employer C determines that $682, the sum of the actual matching contribution received by the employee for the plan year ($250) and the corrective contribution con- tribution to correct the matching contribution failure ($432), does not exceed $720, the maximum maxi- mum matching contribution available to the employee under the plan (2% of $36,000) determined deter- mined as if the employee had made the maximum maxi- mum matchable contributions.
