A portion of a distribution shall not fail to be an Eligible Rollover Distribution because it consists of after-tax contributions; provided, such after-tax portion may only be transferred to an individual retirement account described in Code Section 408(a) or (b), or to a qualified defined contribution plan described in Code Section 40l(a) or 403(b), that agrees to separately account for such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a direct rollover by a Participant of his Roth Contribution Account or Roth Rollover Account shall be made only to another designated Roth account of the Participant (as defined in Code Section 402A(b)(2)(a)) or a Roth IRA. A distributee may not elect a direct rollover with respect to his Eligible Rollover Distributions during a year if such Eligible Rollover Distributions are reasonably expected to total less than $200. Any distribution from a Participant’s Roth Contributions Account and Roth Rollover Account shall not be taken into account in determining whether distributions from the Participant’s other Accounts are reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year. In addition, the Plan will not provide for a direct rollover of distributions from a Participant's Roth Contribution Account and Roth Rollover Account if the amount of the distributions from those accounts that are Eligible Rollover Distributions are reasonably expected to total less than $200 during a year."

18. Effective as of January 1, 2011, Article VIII-Loans is hereby replaced with the Article VIII -Loans that is attached hereto.

19. Effective as of January 1, 2004, the following sentence is added to the end of Section 10.1 of the Plan to read as follows:

"In the event of the termination or partial termination of the Plan or complete discontinuance of Employer contributions to the Plan, the rights of affected Participants to their Accounts under the Plan as of the date of the termination or discontinuance shall be nonforfeitable."

20. Effective as of January 1, 2004, Sections 12.2(a) and (b) of the Plan are amended to read as follows:

"(a) Account balances shall include the aggregate amount of any distributions (including distributions from terminated plans) made with respect to the Employee during the one-year period ending on the Determination Date and any contributions due but unpaid as of said determination date. Notwithstanding the above, in the case of a distribution made for a reason other than severance from employment, death or disability, this provision shall be applied substituting 'five (5) year period' for 'one (1) year· period,' and

(b) the Account balance of any individual who has not performed services for the Employer or the Affiliates at any time during the five-year period ending on the applicable Determination Date shall not be taken into account for the purposes of determining whether this Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan.

The determination of the foregoing ratio shall be made in accordance with Code Section 416(g), which is incorporated herein by this reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall not be top-heavy if it is part of a Required Aggregation Group, as defined in Section 12.3, that is not a top-heavy group.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant or former Participant has not performed any service for any Employer of the Affiliates at any time during the one (1) year period ending on the Determination Date, the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for such Participant or former Participant shall not be taken into account the purposes of determining whether this Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan."

21. Effective as of January 1, 2004, Section 12.3 of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

"12.3 When Plan is in Top-Heavy Group. A Plan is a member of a top-heavy group with respect to a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date, it is part  of a 'Required Aggregation Group' of plans which is top-heavy. For purposes of this Section a Required Aggregation Group includes:

 

 

  

  

  

  

 

(a) this Plan;

(b) each other qualified plan under Code Section 401(a) which is maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate in which a Key Employee is a participant; and

(c) each other plan of an Affiliate which enables a plan described in paragraphs (a) or (b) to meet the requirements of Code Sections 401 (a)(4) or 410.

If the Plan is part of a Required Aggregation Group, the Plan will be considered to be Top Heavy for a Plan Year if, as of the Determination Date:

(1)  the sum of:

	
  

	
(A) the aggregate value of the Accounts of Key Employees under all defined contribution plans included in the Required Aggregation Group; and

	
  

	
(B) the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all defined benefit plans included in the Required Aggregation Group; exceeds

(2)  sixty percent (60%) of a similar sum for all participants in all such plans, excluding former Key Employees and individuals who have not performed services for the Company at any time during the one-year period ending on the Determination Date.

In making this determination, the provisions of Section 12.2 (other than the first sentence thereof) shall be applicable. For purposes of this Article, if a Participant in a defined benefit plan is a Non-Key Employee, the Plan Administrator will determine the Participant’s accrued benefit under the accrual method, if any, which is applicable uniformly to all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer or any Affiliate or, if there is no such uniform method, in accordance with the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule accrual method described in Code Section 411 (b)(I)(C). Notwithstanding the above, the Plan shall not be considered to be Top Heavy for any Plan Year in which the Plan is included in a Required Aggregation Group or Permissive Aggregation Group, within the meaning of Code Section 416(g), which is not Top Heavy. For this purpose, a Permissive Aggregation Group shall include this Plan and all other plans of an Affiliate (other than those included in the Required Aggregation Group) which, when aggregated with the plans in the Required Aggregation Group, continue to meet the requirements of Code Sections 401(a)(4) and 410."

 

 

  

  

  

  

 

 

22. Effective as of January 1, 2004, the following sentence is added at the end of the second full paragraph of Section 12.4 of the Plan (immediately following subsection (b)) to read as follows:

"Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participants who also participate in any defined benefit plan sponsored by the Company or an Affiliate shall not receive both the defined contribution and the defined benefit minimums provided for in Code Section 416(c). In such case, the minimum contribution or benefit requirement for such other plan will be met by increasing the three percent (3%) requirement of subparagraph (a) to five percent (5%)."

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Committee has caused this instrument to be executed the day and year first written above.

The Plan Administrator may establish terms and conditions that apply to loan prepayment which may include prepayment frequency and prepayment amount limitations that shall be set forth in the Loan Policy.

8.6 Loan Proceeds and Payment Allocation. Loan proceeds shall be paid from the Participant’s Account. A promissory note of the same face value shall then be credited as an asset of the Participant’s Account. The principal amount of each loan shall be charged to the Participant's Account in the manner established by the Plan Administrator and as described in the Loan Policy.

8.7 Documents. No loan under the Plan shall be made until the Participant has completed such forms and agreements as determined by the Plan Administrator.

8.8 Default. If a Participant fails to make payment on a loan by the last day of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which such payment was due, or in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment with the Employer ("Termination of Employment" not including the period an Employee is receiving salary continuation pursuant to the Employer's severance policy), the Plan Administrator may declare the loan to be in default, in which case the entire unpaid balance shall become due and payable. The Trustee may pursue collection of the debt by any means generally available to a creditor where a promissory note is in default. If the entire amount due is not paid by the Participant by the last day of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which such amount was due and if the Participant has had a Termination of Employment with the Employer, the Trustee may exercise its security interest by reducing the Participant’s Accounts by the amounts due and by amounts withheld for the payment of taxes payable in connection with such reduction. Upon such exercise the note shall be canceled to the extent of such reduction. Notwithstanding the above, the Employee shall be permitted to suspend the repayment of his loan during any period during which he is engaged in Qualified Military Service.
