IX.	*MULTIPLE PLANS MAINTAINED BY THE EMPLOYER AND TOP-HEAVY CONTRIBUTIONS*

¨ A.	Plans Maintained By The Employer:

The Employer does maintain another Plan [including a Welfare Benefit Fund or an individual medical account as defined in Code Section 415(l)(2)], under which amounts are treated as Annual Additions and has completed the proper sections below. If the Participant is covered under another qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Employer, other than a Master or Prototype Plan [option (1) below shall automatically apply if the other plan is a Master or Prototype Plan]:

¨ 1.

The provisions of Article X of the Basic Plan Document #01 will apply as if the other plan were a Master or Prototype Plan.

¨ 2.

The Employer has specified below the method under which the plans will limit total Annual Additions to the Maximum Permissible Amount, and will properly reduce any Excess Amounts in a manner that precludes Employer discretion:

________________________________________________________________________

Top-Heavy Provisions:

In the event the Plan is or becomes Top-Heavy, the minimum contribution or benefit required under Code Section 416 and paragraph 14.3 of the Basic Plan Document #01 relating to Top-Heavy Plans shall be satisfied in the elected manner:

x 1.

The minimum contribution will be satisfied by this Plan.

¨ 2.

The minimum contribution will be satisfied by (name of other Qualified Plan): ________

Minimum contribution or benefit to be provided (specify interest rates and mortality table, if applicable): ________

For any Plan Year during which the Plan is Top-Heavy, the sum of the contributions (excluding Elective Deferrals) allocated to non-Key Employees shall not be less than the amount required under the Basic Plan Document #01. Top-Heavy minimums will be allocated to:

¨ a.

all eligible Participants [Plan defaults to this election].


		28		401(k) NS AA #010

x b.

only eligible non-Key Employees who are Participants.

¨ 4.

Matching Contributions shall not be included when satisfying Top-Heavy minimum contributions.

X.	*NONDISCRIMINATION TESTING*

A Plan may use different testing methods for the ADP and ACP Tests provided the Plan does not permit recharacterization of Excess Contributions, Elective Deferrals to be used in the ACP Test, or Qualified Matching Contributions to be used in the ADP Test.

If no election is made, the Plan will use the Current Year testing method for both the ADP and ACP Tests.

Testing Elections:

¨ 1.

The Plan is not subject to ADP or ACP testing. The Plan does not offer Voluntary After-tax or Required After-tax Contributions and it either meets the Safe Harbor provisions of Section VI(I) of this Adoption Agreement, or it does not benefit any Highly Compensated Employees.

¨ 2.

This Plan is using the Current Year testing method for purposes of the ADP Test.

¨ 3.

This Plan is using the Current Year testing method for purposes of the ACP Test.

x 4.

This Plan is using the Prior Year testing method for purposes of the ADP Test.

x 5.

This Plan is using the Prior Year testing method for purposes of the ACP Test.

Testing Elections for the First Plan Year:

Complete only when Prior Year testing method election is made and the Employer is not using the “deemed 3%” rule.

¨ 1.

If this is not a successor Plan, then for the first Plan Year this Plan permits any Participant to make Elective Deferrals, the ADP used in the ADP Test for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees shall be such first Plan Year’s ADP.

¨ 2.

If this is not a successor Plan, then for the first Plan Year this Plan permits (a) any Participant to make Employee contributions, (b) provides for Matching Contributions or (c) both, the ACP used in the ACP Test for Participants who are Non-Highly Compensated Employees shall be such first Plan Year’s ACP.

¨ C.	Recharacterization:

Elective Deferrals may be recharacterized as Voluntary After-tax Contributions to the extent so provided by this Plan, to satisfy the ADP Test. The Employer must have elected to permit Voluntary After-tax Contributions in the Plan for this election to be operable.

¨ D.	Forfeitures of Vested Excess Aggregate Contributions Resulting from ADP Test Failure:

Forfeitures of Excess Aggregate Contributions resulting from failure of the ADP Test and the inability to distribute corresponding Matching Contributions will be allocated to the Matching Contribution accounts of Non-Highly Compensated Employees instead of being used to reduce Employer Contributions for the Plan Year in which the failure occurred.


		29		401(k) NS AA #010

XI.	*VESTING*

Participants shall always have a fully vested and nonforfeitable interest in their Employee contributions (including Elective Deferrals, Catch-Up Contributions, Xxxx Elective Deferrals, Deemed XXX Contributions, Required After-tax Contributions, and Voluntary After-tax Contributions), Qualified Matching Contributions (“QMACs”), Qualified Non-Elective Contributions (“QNECs”) or Safe Harbor Contributions, and their investment earnings.

¨ a.

x b.

shall commence on the first day of the Plan Year during which an Employee first performs an Hour of Service for the Employer and each subsequent twelve (12) consecutive month period shall commence on the anniversary thereof.

A Participant shall receive credit for a Year of Service if he or she completes the number of hours specified above at any time during the twelve (12) consecutive month computation period. A Year of Service may be earned prior to the end of the twelve (12) consecutive month computation period and the Participant need not be employed at the end of the twelve (12) consecutive month computation period to receive credit for a Year of Service.

Vesting Schedules:

The Employer must select either the two-twenty vesting schedule option [(B)(4)] or the three-year cliff vesting schedule [(B)(3)] to apply in any Plan Year in which the Plan is Top-Heavy. The percentages selected for option (B)(5) may not be less for any year than the percentages shown at option (B)(4). Any switch to a Top-Heavy schedule will remain in effect even if the Plan later falls out of Top-Heavy status unless the Employer executes an amendment to this Adoption Agreement. If a Participant has at least three (3) Years of Service for vesting purposes at the time of the amendment, the Plan must provide that Participant the option of remaining on the vesting schedule in effect prior to such amendment.

Select the appropriate schedule for each contribution type and complete the blank vesting percentages from the list below and insert the option number in the vesting schedule chart below.
