Plan Administration Expenses. All reasonable expenses related to plan administration will be paid from Plan assets, except to the extent the expenses are paid (or reimbursed) by the Employer. For this purpose, Plan expenses include all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the administration of the Trust (including such reasonable compensation to the Trustee as may be agreed upon from time to time between the Employer or Plan Administrator and the Trustee and any fees for legal services rendered to the Trustee). All reasonable additional administrative expenses incurred to effect investment elections made by Participants and Beneficiaries under Section 13.5(c) shall be paid from the Trust and, as elected by the Plan Administrator, shall either be charged (in accordance with such reasonable nondiscriminatory rules as the Plan Administrator deems appropriate under the circumstances) to the Account of the individual making such election or treated as a general expense of the Trust. All transaction-related expenses incurred to effect a specific investment for an individually-directed Account (such as brokerage commissions and other transfer expenses) shall, as elected by the Plan Administrator, either be paid from or otherwise charged directly to the Account of the individual providing such direction or treated as a general Trust expense. In addition, unless specifically prohibited under statute, regulation or other guidance of general applicability, the Plan Administrator may charge to the Account of an individual Participant a reasonable charge to offset the cost of making a distribution to the Participant, Beneficiary, or Alternate Payee. If liquid assets of the Trust are insufficient to cover the fees of the Trustee or the Plan Administrator, then Trust assets shall be liquidated to the extent necessary for such fees. In the event any part of the Trust becomes subject to tax, all taxes incurred will be paid from the Trust.
Plan Administration Expenses. (a) Reasonable Plan administration expenses. All reasonable expenses related to plan administration may be paid from Plan assets, except to the extent the expenses are paid (or reimbursed) by the Employer. For this purpose, Plan expenses include, but are not limited to, all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the administration of the Trust (including such reasonable compensation to the Trustee as may be agreed upon from time to time between the Employer or Plan Administrator and the Trustee and any fees for legal services rendered to the Trustee).
Plan Administration Expenses. All reasonable Plan administration expenses shall be paid out of the Trust Fund; provided that the obligation of the Trust Fund to pay such expenses shall cease to exist to the extent such expenses are paid by an Employer or are paid to the Trust Fund as a reimbursement by an Employer. This provision shall be deemed to apply to any contract or arrangement to provide for expenses of plan administration without regard to whether or not the signatory or party to such contract or arrangement is, as a matter of administrative convenience, an Employer. Any reasonable plan administration expense paid to the Trust Fund by an Employer as a reimbursement shall not be considered an Employer contribution and shall not be credited to Participants' Accounts. The Plan Administrator shall only direct the Trustee to pay Plan administration expenses from the Trust Fund upon the written direction of Amoco.
