New Hire Choice of Cash Balance or Traditional Pension Plan Sample Clauses

New Hire Choice of Cash Balance or Traditional Pension Plan. An employee first hired into a position represented by Local 223 on or after January 1, 2011, who has never been previously employed with a DTE Energy enterprise company, will be offered a choice of the tradi- tional defined benefit pension plan as described above or the New Horizon Cash Balance Plan. The New Horizon Cash Balance Plan is a hypothetical account in the defined benefit pension plan that increases annually with Company contributions equal to 7% of eligible earnings at the end of each year for each year the employee has less than 30 years of credited service plus 7.5% of eligible earnings at the end of each year for each year the employee has 30 or more years of credited service, plus interest credits based on 30-year Treasury rates for September of the prior year. Interest on each year’s January 1 benefit is added the following December 31 or benefit commencement date, if earlier. (The interest credit does not apply to the current year’s contri- bution). Participants are 100% vested in the New Horizon Cash Balance Plan following the completion of three years of vesting service with the Company. For those new employees hired under the Gas pro- visions of this Agreement who elect the New Horizon Cash Balance Plan, it is understood that the provisions of Article 10 of the Gas Addendum (Total and Permanent Disability) shall not apply. Such employees shall instead be eligible for the provisons of Article 10 Section 15 (Long Term Disability).

  • How Are Distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account Taxed For Federal Income Tax Purposes? Amounts distributed are generally excludable from gross income if they do not exceed the beneficiary’s “qualified higher education expenses” for the year or are rolled over to another Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account according to the requirements of Section (4). “Qualified higher education expenses” generally include the cost of tuition, fees, books, supplies, and equipment for enrollment at (i) accredited post-secondary educational institutions offering credit toward a bachelor’s degree, an associate’s degree, a graduate-level or professional degree or another recognized post-secondary credential and (ii) certain vocational schools. In addition, room and board may be covered if the beneficiary is at least a “half-time” student. This amount may be reduced or eliminated by certain scholarships, qualified state tuition programs, HOPE, Lifetime Learning tax credits, proceeds of certain savings bonds, and other amounts paid on the beneficiary’s behalf as well as by any other deductions or credits taken for the same expenses. The definition of “qualified education expenses” includes expenses more frequently and directly related to elementary and secondary school education, including the purchase of computer technology or equipment or Internet access and related services. To the extent payments during the year exceed such amounts, they are partially taxable and partially non-taxable similar to payments received from an annuity. Any taxable portion of a distribution is generally subject to a 10% penalty tax in addition to income tax unless the distribution is (i) due to the death or disability of the beneficiary, (ii) made on account of a scholarship received by the beneficiary, or (iii) is made in a year in which the beneficiary elects the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credit and waives the exclusion from income of the Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distribution. You may be allowed to take both the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credits while simultaneously taking distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts. However, you cannot claim a credit for the same educational expenses paid for through Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distributions. To the extent a distribution is taxable, capital gains treatment does not apply to amounts distributed from the account. Similarly, the special five- and ten-year averaging rules for lump-sum distributions do not apply to distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account. The taxable portion of any distribution is taxed as ordinary income. The IRS does not require withholding on distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts.
