NON-ELECTIVE SAFE HARBOR CONTRIBUTIONS
1. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.1 shall be amended to read as follows:
“4.1 Definitions
(a) “ACP Nondiscrimination Test” means the test set out in Code Section 401(m) and regulations thereunder.
(b) “ADP Nondiscrimination Test” means the test set out in Code Section 401(k)(3) and regulations thereunder.
(c) “Average Contribution Percentage” (“ACP”) means the average of the Contribution Percentages of a group of Eligible Participants.
(d) “Contribution Percentage” means the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (i) the matching contributions allocated to an Eligible Participant’s Account for such Fiscal Year, to (ii) his Testing Compensation for such Fiscal Year. For this purpose, an Eligible Participant means any Employee who is eligible to make an Elective Deferral (if the Member Employer takes such contributions into account in the calculation of the Contribution Percentage) or to receive a matching contribution (including Forfeitures) or a qualified matching contribution. If an Eligible Participant’s Account is not credited with any Member Employer matching or qualified matching contributions for a Fiscal Year, his Contribution Percentage for that Fiscal Year is zero. The Contribution Percentage may be adjusted as provided in Article 4.7. The determination and treatment of the Contribution Percentage of any Eligible Participant shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.
(e) “Excess Deferral” means Elective Deferrals for a calendar year (or for the Participant’s taxable year that begins in such calendar year) that exceed the dollar limit provided under Article 4.5 (including the dollar limit under Article 4.5(a)(iii) for catch-up Elective Deferrals for the year, if applicable) when counting only Elective Deferrals made to this Plan or another plan maintained by the Employer. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess Deferrals plus any income or less any loss allocable thereto may be paid to Participants who have such Excess Deferrals for a calendar year no later than the following April 15th. If not paid by such date, these amounts must remain in the Participant’s Account until otherwise withdrawable or payable under the terms of the Plan. Because of the double income tax treatment that a Participant will encounter if these amounts are not returned to him by the following April 15th, the Committee shall make every effort to meet this deadline.
(i) Spousal Consent Not Required
Payment of Excess Deferrals will not require the consent of the Participant or the Participant’s Spouse and will not violate any outstanding Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.
(ii) Payments Not Considered Minimum Distributions
Payments of Excess Deferrals are not treated as a distribution for purposes of determining whether the Plan meets the minimum distribution requirements of Code Section 401(a)(9).
(iii) Payments Not Considered Hardship Withdrawals
Payments of Excess Deferrals are not subject to the hardship withdrawal provisions of Article 9.10.
3 of 15
(iv) Participant Notification of Excess Deferrals
If Elective Deferrals are made on behalf of a Participant under two or more plans during a calendar year and the sum of those amounts exceeds the dollar limit in Article 4.5(a), then the Committee shall establish a claims procedure so that the Participant can designate the amounts and the plans from which the Excess Deferrals and attributable earnings shall be returned. The Participant’s claim shall be in writing; shall be submitted to the Plan Administrator not later than the following April 15th; shall specify the amount of the Participant’s Excess Deferrals for the preceding calendar year; and shall be accompanied by the Participant’s written statement that if such Excess Deferrals and attributable earnings are not distributed, the amounts deferred under this Plan and other plans or arrangements described in Code Sections 401(k), 408(k), or 403(b), will exceed the limit imposed on the Participant by Code Section 402(g) for the year in which the deferral occurred.
(v) Deemed Notification of Excess Deferrals
A Participant is deemed to have provided the notification of Excess Deferrals if the Excess Deferrals arise solely from Elective Deferrals made under this Plan or any other plan, contract, arrangement maintained by the Employer.
(vi) Distribution of Elective Deferrals
Excess Deferrals, as adjusted for investment performance allocable thereto (as set out in Article 4.8), shall be distributed no later than April 15.
(f) “Highly Compensated Employee” (“HCE”) for a Fiscal Year includes:
(i) A 5% Owner in the current or the preceding Fiscal Year;
(ii) An Employee whose Testing Compensation exceeds $80,000 (multiplied by the Adjustment Factor) in the preceding Fiscal Year; and if the Sponsoring Employer so elects, an Employee may be an “HCE” under this subsection (ii) only if his Testing Compensation exceeds the dollar limit (stated above) in the preceding Fiscal Year and the Employee is a member of the Top Paid Group in such preceding Fiscal Year. The Sponsoring Employer elects not to make the Top Paid Group election. This election may be changed without prior approval from the Internal Revenue Service by way of a Plan amendment executed by the Sponsoring Employer.
(g) “Non-Highly Compensated Employee (“Non-HCE”) for a Fiscal Year means an Employee who is not a Highly Compensated Employee for that Fiscal Year.
(h) “Top Paid Group” for a Fiscal Year is equal to 20% of the total number of Employees of the Employer for the preceding Fiscal Year. In determining the total number of Employees for such Fiscal Year, the following Employees may be excluded:
(i) Those who have not completed six months of service at the end of such Fiscal Year;
(ii) Those who normally work less than 17½ hours per week;
(iii) Those who normally work less than six months per year;
(iv) Those who have not reached their 21st birthday;
(v) Non-resident aliens; and
4 of 15
(vi) Collectively bargained Employees, provided that this exclusion may be used only if at least 90% of the Employees of the Employer are covered by bona fide collective bargaining agreements.
The Top Paid Group will be determined by listing all of the Employees of the Employer (including those excluded above) in descending order by Testing Compensation and selecting the 20% of the total number of Employees as determined above who are the highest paid. An Employee may be in the Top Paid Group even though he falls in one of the groups which have been excluded in determining the number of Employees. The resolution of any ambiguity relating to the determination of HCE(s) shall be based on IRS regulation 1.414(q).”
2. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.2(b) shall be amended to read as follows:
“(b) Member Employer Non-Elective 401(k) Safe Harbor Contributions
(i) Formula
Effective January 1, 2008, the Member Employer shall make a non-elective contribution (which is a piece of the profit sharing contribution) for each Fiscal Year. The non-elective safe harbor contribution equals 3% of the aggregate Plan Compensation (for the entire Fiscal Year) of the Employees who have entered the profit sharing portion of the Plan and who are eligible to be Participants in the 401(k) Elective Deferral portion of the Plan. In calculating 3% of the aggregate Plan Compensation, individual Participants’ Plan Compensation dollar limits as set out in Article 2.44 shall not be exceeded.
(ii) Eligibility
The Member Employer shall make a non-elective contribution on behalf of an Employee who has entered the profit sharing and non-elective portions of the Plan and is eligible to make Elective Deferrals under the 401(k) Elective Deferral portion of the Plan for the Fiscal Year, regardless of whether he is credited with 1,000 Hours of Service during the Fiscal Year, regardless of whether he is employed by the Member Employer on the last day of the Fiscal Year, and regardless of whether he elects to make 401(k) Elective Deferrals under Article 4.5 for that Fiscal Year. An Employee shall be eligible to be credited with an allocation of the Member Employer’s non-elective safe harbor contribution once he has satisfied the participation requirements of Article 3.2(b)(i)(B) for entry into the profit sharing and non-elective portions of the Plan.
(iii) Full Vesting
A non-elective safe harbor contribution is fully vested when made.
(iv) Distribution Restrictions
The amounts allocated to a Participant’s Non-Elective Account shall be subject to the distribution restrictions that apply to Elective Deferral Accounts, as set out in Article 9.11.
(v) Allocation and Timing
The Member Employer’s non-elective safe harbor contribution shall be allocated to Participants’ Non-Elective Accounts. Member Employer non-elective safe harbor contributions shall be made no later than twelve months after the close of a Fiscal Year in order for those contributions to be considered for such Fiscal Year under the 401(k) safe harbor rules.
5 of 15
(vi) Current Year Testing
The Plan shall apply current year testing for any Fiscal Year in which a non-elective safe harbor contribution is made.
(vii) Fiscal Year Requirement
Except as provided in Regulation Sections 1.401(k)-3(e) and 1.401(m)-3(f) and below, the Plan will fail to satisfy the 401(k) safe harbor requirements for a Fiscal Year unless the safe harbor provisions remain in effect for an entire twelve (12) month Fiscal Year. However, if a Plan has a short Fiscal Year as a result of changing its Fiscal Year, then the Plan will not fail to satisfy the safe harbor requirements merely because the Fiscal Year has less than twelve (12) months, provided that:
(A) The Plan satisfies the 401(k) safe harbor requirements for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year; and
(B) The Plan satisfies the 401(k) safe harbor requirements for the immediately following Fiscal Year (or for the immediately following twelve (12) months if the immediately following Fiscal Year is less than twelve (12) months.
(viii) Plan Termination
A Member Employer may terminate the safe harbor plan mid-year resulting in a short Fiscal Year. This will not violate the 12-month requirement in the following situations: (1) on account of an acquisition or disposition transaction described in Code Section 410(b)(6)(C) or a substantial business hardship within the meaning of Code Section 412(d), or (2) on account of an “exiting” rule. If the termination is due to hardship or an acquisition transaction, the Plan remains a safe harbor plan, provided that the Member Employer satisfies the safe harbor provisions through the effective date of the Plan termination; prior notice to Participants is not required. If the Member Employer terminates the Plan for any other reason and the termination results in a short Fiscal Year, the Member Employer must satisfy the safe harbor provisions through the Plan termination and meet the ADP and ACP Nondiscrimination Tests with current year testing for the Fiscal Year and the supplemental notice requirements of 1.401(k)-3(g) and 1.401(m)-3(h), except that the Member Employer need not provide Participants with the right to change their cash or deferred elections since the Plan is terminating.”
3. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.2(e)(i)(B)(3) shall be amended by adding the following at the end thereto:
“The Member Employer’s non-elective safe harbor contribution shall satisfy the minimum contribution requirement for a Top-Heavy Plan.”
4. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.6 shall be amended to read as follows:
“4.6 ADP Nondiscrimination Test Not Required for Safe Harbor Plan
(a) ADP Nondiscrimination Test
For any Fiscal Year, the ADP Nondiscrimination Test set out in Code Section 401(k)(3) shall be automatically satisfied, provided that the Plan satisfies the minimum non-elective safe harbor contribution and notice requirements described in Articles 4.2(b) and 4.13, as added in this Amendment Number Five.
6 of 15
(b) ACP Nondiscrimination Test
In any Fiscal Year in which the Member Employer makes a non-elective safe harbor contribution pursuant to Article 4.2(b), if the Member Employer does not make a matching contribution pursuant to Article 4.2(c), the ACP Nondiscrimination Test set out in Code Section 401(m)(2) need not be met. However, if a matching contribution is made and it does not satisfy the ACP safe harbor requirements of Code Section 401(m)(11), the ACP Nondiscrimination Test set out in Article 4.7, Code Section 401(m) and regulations issued thereunder shall apply.”
5. Effective January 1, 2008, subsections (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Article 4.7(a), as set out in Amendment Number Four, shall be deleted, and the following subsection (ii) shall be added:
“(ii) Elective Deferrals Under Safe Harbor Plan Are Excluded
Elective Deferrals made under a 401(k) safe harbor plan are excluded from the Contribution Percentage.”
6. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.7(b) shall be amended by adding a new subsection (v), which shall read as follows:
“(v) Current Year Testing for Safe Harbor Plans
The current year testing method must be deemed to be used for any Fiscal Year in which a non-elective safe harbor contribution is made under Articles 4.2(b) and for any Fiscal Year in which the Plan fails to meet the safe harbor requirements for any reason.”
7. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.8(a), as set out in Amendment Number Four, shall be amended by deleting the words, “... Excess Contributions ...” in the first sentence.
8. Effective January 1, 2008, Articles 4.8(b)(ii) and 4.9(c), as set out in Amendment Number Four, shall be deleted and the space reserved for future use.
9. Effective January 1, 2008, Articles 4.9(d) and (e), as set out in Amendment Number Four, shall be amended to read as follows:
“(d) Correction Period for ACP Nondiscrimination Test Violations
Failure to correct excess matching contributions, as adjusted for income or loss allocable thereto pursuant to Article 4.8, by the close of the Fiscal Year following the Fiscal Year for which they are made shall cause the 401(k) Elective Deferral portion of the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 401(m)(2) for the Fiscal Year for which the excess matching contributions were made and for all subsequent Fiscal Years that they remain in the Trust. Notwithstanding the above, the Member Employer shall be liable for an excise tax on the amount of the excess matching contributions unless they are corrected within 2½ months after the close of the Fiscal Year for which they were made (or such other period as may be permitted under current guidelines).
7 of 15
(e) Match May Be Forfeited to Avoid Nondiscrimination
Excess matching contributions are treated as Member Employer contributions for purposes of Code Sections 415 and 401(a)(4). The Plan may forfeit matching contributions attributable to Excess Deferrals and excess matching contributions to avoid a violation of Code Section 401(a)(4).”
10. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4.10, as set out in Amendment Number Four, shall be amended to read as follows:
“4.10 Record Requirement
The Member Employer shall maintain such records as may be needed to prove that for each Fiscal Year the non-elective safe harbor requirements of Articles 4.2(b) and 4.13 and the nondiscrimination requirements of Article 4.7 are met.”
11. Effective January 1, 2008, Article 4 shall be amended by adding the following at the end thereto:
“4.13 Notice Regarding Member Employer Non-Elective 401(k) Safe Harbor Contributions
(a) Content
Effective January 1, 2008, each Member Employer shall make a non-elective 401(k) safe harbor contribution for each Fiscal Year, as set out in Article 4.2(b). Each Member Employer making such a non-elective 401(k) safe harbor contribution shall satisfy an annual notice requirement. The required notice shall be in writing or in an electronic form that is as understandable as a written notice and shall be distributed before the start of each Fiscal Year to Eligible Employees who are eligible to participate in the Plan. An Employee who is provided with an electronic notice shall be entitled to receive a paper copy of the notice, without charge, if he or she so requests, and the electronic notice shall specify that. The notice shall be accurate and comprehensive and shall set forth the following information in a manner that is understandable by the average Plan Participant:

The Plan is deemed to comply with the “reasonable period of time” requirement if the notice is provided not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days before the beginning of the following Fiscal Year. For any Eligible Employee who is newly eligible to participate in the Plan, the notice shall be provided no more than 90 days prior to and not later than the date he becomes eligible to participate in the Plan. If the information required by (ii), (iii) and (iv) above is already contained in the current summary plan description provided to Employees, the notice required by this Article 4.13 may be satisfied by cross-referencing the appropriate sections of the current summary plan description and by providing the information required by (i), (v), (vi) and (vii) above in the annual notice.
