Participants The Lender and its participants, if any, are not partners or joint venturers, and the Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility for any obligation, act or omission of any of its participants. All rights and powers specifically conferred upon the Lender may be transferred or delegated to any of the Lender's participants, successors or assigns.
Employee Participants 2.01 ELIGIBILITY.
Participant See Section 7(a) hereof.
Loans to Participants If the Adoption Agreement so indicates, a Participant may receive a loan from the Fund, subject to the following rules:
Distributions to Participants Whenever LC Issuer has in accordance with this section received from any Lender payment of such Lender's Percentage Share of any Matured LC Obligation, if LC Issuer thereafter receives any payment of such Matured LC Obligation or any payment of interest thereon (whether directly from Borrower or by application of LC Collateral or otherwise, and excluding only interest for any period prior to LC Issuer's demand that such Lender make such payment of its Percentage Share), LC Issuer will distribute to such Lender its Percentage Share of the amounts so received by LC Issuer; provided, however, that if any such payment received by LC Issuer must thereafter be returned by LC Issuer, such Lender shall return to LC Issuer the portion thereof which LC Issuer has previously distributed to it.
Participant Loans This Section 10.03[E] specifically authorizes the Trustee to make loans on a nondiscriminatory basis to a Participant or to a Beneficiary in accordance with the loan policy established by the Advisory Committee, provided: (1) the loan policy satisfies the requirements of Section 9.04; (2) loans are available to all Participants and Beneficiaries on a reasonably equivalent basis and are not available in a greater amount for Highly Compensated Employees than for other Employees; (3) any loan is adequately secured and bears a reasonable rate of interest; (4) the loan provides for repayment within a specified time; (5) the default provisions of the note prohibit offset of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit prior to the time the Trustee otherwise would distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit; (6) the amount of the loan does not exceed (at the time the Plan extends the loan) the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit; and (7) the loan otherwise conforms to the exemption provided by Code Section 4975(d)(1). If the joint and survivor requirements of Article VI apply to the Participant, the Participant may not pledge any portion of his Accrued Benefit as security for a loan made after August 18, 1985, unless, within the 90 day period ending on the date the pledge becomes effective, the Participant's spouse, if any, consents (in a manner described in Section 6.05 other than the requirement relating to the consent of a subsequent spouse) to the security or, by separate consent, to an increase in the amount of security. If the Employer is an unincorporated trade or business, a Participant who is an Owner-Employee may not receive a loan from the Plan, unless he has obtained a prohibited transaction exemption from the Department of Labor. If the Employer is an "S Corporation," a Participant who is a shareholder-employee (an employee or an officer) who, at any time during the Employer's taxable year, owns more than 5%, either directly or by attribution under Code Section 318(a)(1), of the Employer's outstanding stock may not receive a loan from the Plan, unless he has obtained a prohibited transaction exemption from the Department of Labor. If the Employer is not an unincorporated trade or business nor an "S Corporation," this Section 10.03[E] does not impose any restrictions on the class of Participants eligible for a loan from the Plan. [F] INVESTMENT IN QUALIFYING EMPLOYER SECURITIES AND QUALIFYING EMPLOYER REAL PROPERTY. The investment options in this Section 10.03[F] include the ability to invest in qualifying Employer securities or qualifying Employer real property, as defined in and as limited by ERISA. If the Employer's Plan is a Nonstandardized profit sharing plan, it may elect in its Adoption Agreement to permit the aggregate investments in qualifying Employer securities and in qualifying Employer real property to exceed 10% of the value of Plan assets.
Rights of Participants Any participant in a Lender's interests hereunder may assert any claim for yield protection under Section 4.03 that it could have asserted if it were a Lender hereunder. If such a claim is asserted by any such participant, it shall be entitled to receive such compensation from the Borrower as a Lender would receive in like circumstances; provided, however, that with respect to any such claim, the Borrower shall have no greater liability to the Lender and its participant, in the aggregate, than it would have had to the Lender alone had no such participation interest been created.
Eligible Employees Regular and probationary, full time and less than full-time employees (on a pro rata basis) are eligible to participate in this program. Sec. 903 COURSES ELIGIBLE: The following criteria will be used in determining eligibility for reimbursement:
Plan Administrator Employees must elect a plan administrator during their initial enrollment in Advantage and may change their plan administrator election only during the annual open enrollment and when permitted under Section 5. Dependents must be enrolled through the same plan administrator as the employee.
