Special Average Contribution Percentage Rules. (i) For purposes of this Section 3.5.2, the Contribution Percentage for any Eligible Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Matching 401(k) Contributions or Matching Thrift Contributions, as the case may be (other than Qualified Matching Contributions), allocated to his or her account under two or more qualified plans described in Code Section 401(a), or arrangements described in Code Section 401(k) shall be determined as if the total of such Contribution Percentage Amounts was made under each plan. If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in 2 or more cash or deferred arrangements that have different plan years, all cash or deferred arrangements ending with or within the same calendar year shall be treated as a single arrangement. (ii) In the event that this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b) only if aggregated with one or more other plans, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of Code Section 410(b) only if aggregated with this Plan, then this Section 3.5.2 shall be applied by determining the Contribution Percentages of Employees as if all such plans were a single plan. For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 1989, plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy Code Section 401(m) only if they have the same plan year. (iii) For purposes of determining the Contribution Percentage of an Eligible Participant who is a 5% owner or one of the 10 most highly-paid Highly Compensated Employees, the Contribution Percentage Amounts and the CODA Compensation of such Participant shall include the Contribution Percentage Amounts and CODA Compensation for the Plan Year of Family Members. Family Members with respect to Highly Compensated Employees shall be disregarded as separate employees in determining the Contribution Percentage both for Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees and for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees. (iv) For purposes of determining the ACP Test, Matching 401(k) Contributions, Matching Thrift Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions will be considered made for a Plan Year if made no later than the end of the 12-month period beginning on the day after the close of the Plan Year.
