Credited Service In addition to Current Credited Service the Adopting Employer may include as Credited Service the following types of service:
Elective Deferrals Any Employer contributions made to the Plan at the election of the Participant, in lieu of cash compensation, and shall include contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction agreement or other deferral mechanism. With respect to any taxable year, a Participant's Elective Deferral is the sum of all employer contributions made on behalf of such Participant pursuant to an election to defer under any qualified cash or deferred arrangement as described in section 401(k) of the Code, any salary reduction simplified employee pension described in section 408(k)(6), any SIMPLE IRA Plan described in §408(p), , any plan as described under section 501(c)(18), and any employer contributions made on the behalf of a Participant for the purchase of an annuity contract under section 403(b) pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. Elective Deferrals shall not include any deferrals properly distributed as excess annual addition. For years beginning after 2005, the term “elective Deferrals” includes Pre-tax Elective Deferrals and Xxxx Elective Deferrals. Pre-tax Elective Deferrals are a participant’s Elective Deferrals that are not includible in the participant’s gross income at the time deferred. The Employer may, if notification is made within a reasonable time and in a manner described in IRS Revenue Ruling 2000-8, 2000-7 IRB617, allow for negative elections. If such administrative provision applies and the Employee does not affirmatively elect to not participate and the Employee does not affirmatively elect a different amount (including no amount), a default amount shall be deducted from the Employee’s Compensation. Such default amount shall be part of the initial notification received by the Employer. If negative elections apply under the Plan, the Employer shall indicate whether the default shall be a pre-tax Elective Deferral or a Xxxx Elective Deferral in the Adoption Agreement.
Matching Contributions The Employer will make matching contributions in accordance with the formula(s) elected in Part II of this Adoption Agreement Section 3.01.

(i) fails to satisfy the eligibility requirement specified in subparagraph 17.02(a)(ii) solely because a concurrent entitlement to benefits under the Disability Insurance (DI) Plan, the Long term Disability (LTD) Insurance portion of the Public Service Management Insurance Plan (PSMIP) or the Government Employees Compensation Act prevents her from receiving Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan maternity benefits, and
(ii) has satisfied all of the other eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 17.02(a), other than those specified in sections (A) and (B) of subparagraph 17.02(a)(iii), shall be paid, in respect of each week of maternity allowance not received for the reason described in subparagraph (i), the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the gross amount of her weekly disability benefit under the DI Plan, the LTD Plan or via the Government Employees Compensation Act.
(b) An employee shall be paid an allowance under this clause and under clause 17.02 for a combined period of no more than the number of weeks during which she would have been eligible for maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan had she not been disqualified from Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits for the reasons described in subparagraph (a)(i).
