    ``(u) Special Rules Relating to Veterans' Reemployment Rights Under 
USERRA.--
            ``(1) Treatment of certain contributions made pursuant to 
        veterans' reemployment rights.--If any contribution is made by 
        an employer or an employee under an individual account plan 
        with respect to an employee, or by an employee to a defined 
        benefit plan that provides for employee contributions, and such 
        contribution is required by reason of such employee's rights 
        under chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, resulting 
        from qualified military service, then--
                    ``(A) such contribution shall not be subject to any 
                otherwise applicable limitation contained in section 
                402(g), 402(h), 403(b), 404(a), 404(h), 408, 415, or 
                457, and shall not be taken into account in applying 
                such limitations to other contributions or benefits 
                under such plan or any other plan, with respect to the 
                year in which the contribution is made,
                    ``(B) such contribution shall be subject to the 
                limitations referred to in subparagraph (A) with 
                respect to the year to which the contribution relates 
                (in accordance with rules prescribed by the Secretary), 
                and
                    ``(C) such plan shall not be treated as failing to 
                meet the requirements of section 401(a)(4), 401(a)(26),

                408(k)(6), 410(b), or 416 by reason of the making of 
                (or the right to make) such contribution.
        For purposes of the preceding sentence, any elective deferral 
        or employee contribution made under paragraph (2) shall be 
        treated as required by reason of the employee's rights under 
        such chapter 43.
            ``(2) Reemployment rights under userra with respect to 
        elective deferrals.--
                    ``(A) In general.--For purposes of this subchapter 
                and section 457, if an employee is entitled to the 
                benefits of chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, 
                with respect to any plan which provides for elective 
                deferrals, the employer sponsoring the plan shall be 
                treated as meeting the requirements of such chapter 43 
                with respect to such elective deferrals only if such 
                employer--
                            ``(i) permits such employee to make 
                        additional elective deferrals under such plan

                        (B) or such lesser amount as is elected by the 
employee) during the period which begins on the date of the 
reemployment of such employee with such employer and has the same

                        been required had such deferral actually been 
                        made during the period of such qualified 
                        military service.
                    ``(B) Amount of makeup required.--The amount 
                determined under this subparagraph with respect to any 
                plan is the maximum amount of the elective deferrals 
                that the individual would have been permitted to make 
                under the plan in accordance with the limitations 
                referred to in paragraph (1)(A) during the period of 
                qualified military service if the individual had 
                continued to be employed by the employer during such 
                period and received compensation as determined under 
                paragraph (7). Proper adjustment shall be made to the 
                amount determined under the preceding sentence for any 
                elective deferrals actually made during the period of 
                such qualified military service.
                    ``(C) Elective deferral.--For purposes of this 
                paragraph, the term `elective deferral' has the meaning 
                given such term by section 402(g)(3); except that such 
                term shall include any deferral of compensation under 
                an eligible deferred compensation plan (as defined in 
                section 457(b)).

                contributions.
            ``(3) Certain retroactive adjustments not required.--For 
        purposes of this subchapter and subchapter E, no provision of 
        chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, shall be construed 
        as requiring--

                respect to any contribution before such contribution is 
                actually made, or

                to the period of qualified military service.

        suspends the obligation to repay any loan made to an employee 
        from such plan for any part of any period during which such 
        employee is performing service in the uniformed services (as 
        defined in chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code), whether 
        or not qualified military service, such suspension shall not be 
        taken into account for purposes of section 72(p), 401(a), or 
        4975(d)(1).
            ``(5) Qualified military service.--For purposes of this 
        subsection, the term `qualified military service' means any 
        service in the uniformed services (as defined in chapter 43 of 
        title 38, United States Code) by any individual if such 
        individual is entitled to reemployment rights under such 
        chapter with respect to such service.

        415(c)(3), and 457(e)(5), an employee who is in qualified 
        military service shall be treated as receiving compensation 
        from the employer during such period of qualified military 
        service equal to--

                received during such period if the employee were not in 
                qualified military service, determined based on the 
                rate of pay the employee would have received from the 
                employer but for absence during the period of qualified 
                military service, or

        For purposes of this subchapter and section 457, an employer 
        sponsoring a retirement plan shall be treated as meeting the 
        requirements of chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, 
        only if each of the following requirements is met:
                    ``(A) An individual reemployed under such chapter 
                is treated with respect to such plan as not having 
                incurred a break in service with the employer 
                maintaining the plan by reason of such individual's 
                period of qualified military service.
                    ``(B) Each period of qualified military service 
                served by an individual is, upon reemployment under 
                such chapter, deemed with respect to such plan to 
                constitute service with the employer maintaining the 
                plan for the purpose of determining the 
                nonforfeitability of the individual's accrued benefits 
                under such plan and for the purpose of determining the 
                accrual of benefits under such plan.
                    ``(C) An individual reemployed under such chapter 
                is entitled to accrued benefits that are contingent on 
                the making of, or derived from, employee contributions 
                or elective deferrals only to the extent the individual 
                makes payment to the plan with respect to such 
                contributions or deferrals. No such payment may exceed 
                the amount the individual would have been permitted or 
                required to contribute had the individual remained 
                continuously employed by the employer throughout the 
                period of qualified military service. Any payment to 
                such plan shall be made during the period beginning 
                with the date of reemployment and whose duration is 3 
                times the period of the qualified military service (but 
                not greater than 5 years).
            ``(9) Plans not subject to title 38.--This subsection shall 
        not apply to any retirement plan to which chapter 43 of title 
        38, United States Code, does not apply.
            ``(10) References.--For purposes of this section, any 
        reference to chapter 43 of title 38, United States Code, shall 
        be treated as a reference to such chapter as in effect on 
        December 12, 1994 (without regard to any subsequent 
        amendment).''
