Elective Deferrals An Employee will be eligible to become a Contributing Participant in the Plan (and thus be eligible to make Elective Deferrals) and receive Matching Contributions (including Qualified Matching Contributions, if applicable) after completing 1 (enter 0, 1 or any fraction less than 1) Years of Eligibility Service.

Qualified Nonelective Contributions If the Employer, at the time of contribution, designates a contribution to be a qualified nonelective contribution for the Plan Year, the Advisory Committee will allocate that qualified nonelective contribution to the Qualified Nonelective Contributions Account of each Participant eligible for an allocation of that designated contribution, as specified in Section 3.04 of the Employer's Adoption Agreement. The Advisory Committee will make the allocation to each eligible Participant's Account in the same ratio that the Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all eligible Participants for the Plan Year. The Advisory Committee will determine a Participant's Compensation in accordance with the general definition of Compensation under Section 1.12 of the Plan, as modified by the Employer in Sections 1.12 and 3.06 of its Adoption Agreement.
