Maximum Annual Additions. In general, for purposes of applying the limitations in this Article, Compensation for a Limitation Year is the Compensation actually paid or made available in gross income during such Limitation Year. For Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 2002, the maximum Annual Addition that may be contributed or allocated to a Participant’s Account under the Plan for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of: (a) the Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation, or (b) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant’s Compensation (as elected in the Adoption Agreement) for the Limitation Year. For Limitation Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, except to the extent permitted under paragraph 4.7 and under Code Section 414(v), the Annual Addition that may be contributed or allocated to a Participant’s account under the Plan for any Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 2001 shall not exceed the lesser of: (c) $40,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living under Code Section 415(d), or (d) 100% of the Participant’s Compensation (as elected in the Adoption Agreement), within the meaning of Code Section 415(c)(3), for the Limitation Year. The Compensation limit referred to in (b) and (d) above shall not apply to any contribution for medical benefits after separation from Service [within the meaning of Code Section 401(h) or Code Section 419A(f)(2)] that is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition. If a short Limitation Year is created because of an amendment changing the Limitation Year to a different twelve (12) consecutive month period, the Maximum Permissible Amount will not exceed the Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the short Limitation Year, and the denominator of which is twelve (12).
