LIMITATION ON ALLOCATIONS. A. If the Participant does not participate in, and has never participated in another qualified plan maintained by the Employer or a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Section 419(e) of the Code maintained by the Employer, or an individual medical account, as defined in Section 415(l)(2) of the Code, or a simplified employee pension plan, as defined in Section 408(k) of the Code, maintained by the Employer, which provides an annual addition as defined in Section 3.08(E)(1), the following rules shall apply: 1. The amount of annual additions which may be credited to the Participant's Individual Account for any limitation year will not exceed the lesser of the maximum permissible amount or any other limitation contained in this Plan. If the Employer Contribution that would otherwise be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Individual Account would cause the annual additions for the limitation year to exceed the maximum permissible amount, the amount contributed or allocated will be reduced so that the annual additions for the limitation year will equal the maximum permissible amount. 2. Prior to determining the Participant's actual Compensation for the limitation year, the Employer may determine the maximum permissible amount for a Participant on the basis of a reasonable estimation of the Participant's Compensation for the limitation year, uniformly determined for all Participants similarly situated. 3. As soon as is administratively feasible after the end of the limitation year, the maximum permissible amount for the limitation year will be determined on the basis of the Participant's actual Compensation for the limitation year. 4. If pursuant to Section 3.05(A)(3) or as a result of the allocation of Forfeitures there is an excess amount, the excess will be disposed of as follows: a. Any Nondeductible Employee Contributions, to the extent they would reduce the excess amount, will be returned to the Participant; b. If after the application of paragraph (a) an excess amount still exists, and the Participant is covered by the Plan at the end of the limitation year, the excess amount in the Participant's Individual Account will be used to reduce Employer Contributions (including any allocation of Forfeitures) for such Participant in the next limitation year, and each succeeding limitation year if necessary; c. If after the application of paragraph (b) an excess amount still exists, and the Participant is not covered by the Plan at the end of a limitation year, the excess amount will be held unallocated in a suspense account. The suspense account will be applied to reduce future Employer Contributions (including allocation of any Forfeitures) for all remaining Participants in the next limitation year, and each succeeding limitation year if necessary; d. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a limitation year pursuant to this Section, it will not participate in the allocation of the Fund's investment gains and losses. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a particular limitation year, all amounts in the suspense account must be allocated and reallocated to Participants' Individual Accounts before any Employer Contributions or any Nondeductible Employee Contributions may be made to the Plan for that limitation year. Excess amounts may not be distributed to Participants or former Participants. B. If, in addition to this Plan, the Participant is covered under another qualified master or prototype defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer, a welfare benefit fund maintained by the Employer, an individual medical account maintained by the Employer, or a simplified employee pension maintained by the Employer that provides an annual addition as defined in Section 3.05(E)(1), during any limitation year, the following rules apply: 1. The annual additions which may be credited to a Participant's Individual Account under this Plan for any such limitation year will not exceed the maximum permissible amount reduced by the annual additions credited to a Participant's Individual Account under the other qualified master or prototype plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts and simplified employee pensions for the same limitation year. If the annual additions with respect to the Participant under other qualified master or prototype defined contribution plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts and simplified employee pensions maintained by the Employer are less than the maximum permissible amount and the Employer Contribution that would otherwise be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Individual Account under this Plan would cause the annual additions for the limitation year to exceed this limitation, the amount contributed or allocated will be reduced so that the annual additions under all such plans and funds for the limitation year will equal the maximum permissible amount. If the annual additions with respect to the Participant under such other qualified master or prototype defined contribution plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts and simplified employee pensions in the aggregate are equal to or greater than the maximum permissible amount, no amount will be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Individual Account under this Plan for the limitation year. 2. Prior to determining the Participant's actual Compensation for the limitation year, the Employer may determine the maximum permissible amount for a Participant in the manner described in Section 3.05(A)(2). 3. As soon as is administratively feasible after the end of the limitation year, the maximum permissible amount for the limitation year will be determined on the basis of the Participant's actual Compensation for the limitation year. 4. If, pursuant to Section 3.05(B)(3) or as a result of the allocation of Forfeitures a Participant's annual additions under this Plan and such other plans would result in an excess amount for a limitation year, the excess amount will be deemed to consist of the annual additions last allocated, except that annual additions attributable to a simplified employee pension will be deemed to have been allocated first, followed by annual additions to a welfare benefit fund or individual medical account, regardless of the actual allocation date. 5. If an excess amount was allocated to a Participant on an allocation date of this Plan which coincides with an allocation date of another plan, the excess amount attributed to this Plan will be the product of, a. the total excess amount allocated as of such date, times b. the ratio of (i) the annual additions allocated to the Participant for the limitation year as of such date under this Plan to (ii) the total annual additions allocated to the Participant for the limitation year as of such date under this and all the other qualified prototype defined contribution plans. 6. Any excess amount attributed to this Plan will be disposed in the manner described in Section 3.05(A)(4). C. If the Participant is covered under another qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer which is not a master or prototype plan, annual additions which may be credited to the Participant's Individual Account under this Plan for any limitation year will be limited in accordance with Sections 3.05(B)(1) through 3.05(B)(6) as though the other plan were a master or prototype plan unless the Employer provides other limitations in the Section of the Adoption Agreement titled "Limitation on Allocation - More Than One Plan." D. If the Employer maintains, or at any time maintained, a qualified defined benefit plan covering any Participant in this Plan, the sum of the Participant's defined benefit plan fraction and defined contribution plan fraction will not exceed 1.0 in any limitation year. The annual additions which may be credited to the Participant's Individual Account under this Plan for any limitation year will be limited in accordance with the Section of the Adoption Agreement titled "Limitation on Allocation - More Than One Plan."
