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.
Distribution Limitation Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article 5, the General Partner shall have the power, in its reasonable discretion, to adjust the distributions to the Special Limited Partner to the extent necessary to avoid violations of the “2%/25% Guidelines” as described in the Advisory Agreement.
DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN LIMITATION If the Employer maintains a defined benefit plan, or has ever maintained a defined benefit plan which the Employer has terminated, then the sum of the defined benefit plan fraction and the defined contribution plan fraction for any Participant for any Limitation Year must not exceed 1.0. The Employer must provide in Adoption Agreement Section 3.18 the manner in which the Plan will satisfy this limitation. The Employer also must provide in its Adoption Agreement Section 3.18 the manner in which the Plan will satisfy the top heavy requirements of Code Section 416 after taking into account the existence (or prior maintenance) of the defined benefit plan.
Limitation Year The Limitation Year is: (Choose (c) or (d)) [ x ] (c) The Plan Year. [ ] (d) The 12 consecutive month period ending every _____.
Deduction Limitation on Benefit Payments If the Bank reasonably anticipates that the Bank’s deduction with respect to any distribution under this Agreement would be limited or eliminated by application of Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Bank to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution from this Agreement is deductible, the Bank may delay payment of any amount that would otherwise be distributed under this Agreement. The delayed amounts shall be distributed to the Executive (or the Beneficiary in the event of the Executive’s death) at the earliest date the Bank reasonably anticipates that the deduction of the payment of the amount will not be limited or eliminated by application of Code Section 162(m).
Excess Compensation For purposes of Option (f), (g) or (h), "Excess Compensation" means Compensation in excess of the following Integration Level: (Choose (1) or (2))
Section 409A Limitation It is the intention of Company and Executive that the severance and other benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement either be exempt from, or otherwise comply with, Section 409A (“Section 409A”) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, to the extent that any provision of this Agreement is determined by the Company, with the advice of its independent accounting firm or other tax advisors, to be subject to and not in compliance with Section 409A, including, without limitation, the definition of “Change in Control” or the timing of commencement and completion of severance benefit and/or other benefit payments to Executive hereunder in connection with a merger, recapitalization, sale of shares or other “Change in Control”, or the amount of any such payments, such provisions shall be interpreted in the manner required to comply with Section 409A. Company and Executive acknowledge and understand that such interpretation could, among other matters, (i) limit the circumstances or events that constitute a “change in control;” (ii) delay for a period of six (6) months or more, or otherwise modify the commencement of severance and/or other benefit payments; and/or (iii) modify the completion date of severance and/or other benefit payments. Company and Executive further acknowledge and agree that if, in the judgment of Company, with the advice of its independent accounting firm or other tax advisors, amendment of this Agreement is necessary to comply with Section 409A, Company and Executive will negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of this Agreement to the extent necessary so that it complies (with the most limited possible economic effect on Company and Executive) with Section 409A. For example, if this Agreement is subject to Section 409A and it requires that severance and/or other benefit payments must be delayed until at least six (6) months after Executive terminates employment, then Company and Executive would delay payments and/or promptly seek a written amendment to this Agreement that would, if permissible under Section 409A, eliminate any such payments otherwise payable during the first six (6) months following Executive’s termination of employment and substitute therefor a lump sum payment or an initial installment payment, as applicable, at the beginning of the seventh (7th) month following Executive’s termination of employment which in the case of an initial installment payment would be equal in the aggregate to the amount of all such payments thus eliminated.
EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS [X] (a) Participants shall be permitted to make Elective Deferrals in any amount from 1 % up to 15 % of their Compensation. If (a) is applicable, Participants shall be permitted to amend their Salary Savings Agreements to change the contribution percentage as provided below:
PARTICIPANT NONDEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS The Plan: (Choose (a) or (b); (c) is available only with (b)) [X] (a) Does not permit Participant nondeductible contributions. [ ] (b) Permits Participant nondeductible contributions, pursuant to Section 14.04 of the Plan.
RETENTION LIMIT CHANGES If the Company changes its retention limits, it will provide the Reinsurer with written notice of the new retention limits and the effective date. A change to the Company's Retention Limits in Exhibit D will not affect the Reinsured Policies in force at the time of such a change except as specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement.
