allocation under Section 3.04(B), but such Participant's allocation under
this Option (g) will not exceed 3% of his Compensation for the Plan Year.
As a second tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
nonelective contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Excess
Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Excess Compensation of
all Participants for the Plan Year. The allocation under this paragraph,
as a percentage of each Participant's Excess Compensation, may not exceed
the allocation percentage in the first paragraph.
Finally, the Advisory Committee will allocate any remaining nonelective
contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for
the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the
Plan Year.
[ ] (h) Four-Tiered Integrated Allocation Formula. First, the Advisory
Committee will allocate the annual Employer nonelective contributions in
the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year bears
to the total Compensation of all Participants for the Plan Year, but not
exceeding 3% of each Participant's Compensation. Solely for purposes of
this first tier allocation, a "Participant" means, in addition to any
Participant who satisfies the requirements of Section 3.06 for the Plan
Year, any other Participant entitled to a top heavy minimum allocation
under Section 3.04(B) of the Plan.
As a second tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
nonelective contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Excess
Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Excess Compensation of
all Participants for the Plan Year, but not exceeding 3% of each
Participant's Excess Compensation.
As a third tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the annual
Employer contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's
Compensation plus Excess Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total
Compensation plus Excess Compensation of all Participants for the Plan
Year. The allocation under this paragraph, as a percentage of each
Participant's Compensation plus Excess Compensation, must not exceed the
applicable percentage (2.7%, 2.4% or 1.3%) listed under the Maximum
Disparity Table following Option (i).
The Advisory Committee then will allocate any remaining nonelective
contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for
the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the
Plan Year.
[ x ] (i) Excess Compensation. For purposes of Option (f), (g) or (h),
"Excess Compensation" means Compensation in excess of the following
Integration Level: (Choose (1) or (2))

determined under Section 230 of the Social Security Act, in effect on the
first day of the Plan Year: (Choose any combination of (i) and (ii) or
choose (iii))
[ ] (i) Rounded to _____ (but not exceeding the taxable wage base).
[ ] (ii) But not greater than $_____.
[ x ] (iii) Without any further adjustment or limitation.
[ ] (2) $_____ [Note: Not exceeding the taxable wage base for the Plan
Year in which this Adoption Agreement first is effective.]
Maximum Disparity Table. For purposes of Options (f), (g) and (h), the
applicable percentage is:
Integration Level (as Applicable Percentages for Applicable
Percentages
percentage of taxable Option (f) or Option (g) for Option (h)
wage base)
100% 5.7% 2.7%
More than 80% but less than 100% 5.4% 2.4%
More than 20% (but not less than
$10,001) and not more than 80% 4.3% 1.3%
20% (or $10,000, if greater)
or less 5.7% 2.7%
[ ] (j) Allocation offset. The Advisory Committee will reduce a
Participant's allocation otherwise made under Part II of this Section 3.04
by the Participant's allocation under the following qualified plan(s)
maintained by the Employer: _____________________.
The Advisory Committee will determine this allocation reduction: (Choose
(1) or (2))
[ ] (1) By treating the term "nonelective contribution" as including
all amounts paid or accrued by the Employer during the Plan Year to the
qualified plan(s) referenced under this Option (j). If a Participant under
this Plan also participates in that other plan, the Advisory Committee will
treat the amount the Employer contributes for or during a Plan Year on
behalf of a particular Participant under such other plan as an amount
allocated under this Plan to that Participant's Account for that Plan Year.
The Advisory Committee will make the computation of allocation required
under the immediately preceding sentence before making any allocation of
nonelective contributions under this Section 3.04.
[ ] (2) In accordance with the formula provided in an addendum to this
Adoption Agreement, numbered 3.04(j).
Top Heavy Minimum Allocation - Method of Compliance. If a Participant's

the Participant's Account, as described in Section 3.04(B)(7)(a) of the
Plan.

under the following plan(s) it maintains: ___________. However, the
Employer will make any necessary additional contribution to satisfy the top
heavy minimum allocation for an Employee covered only under this Plan and

3.04(B)(7)(b) of the Plan.
If the Employer maintains another plan, the Employer may provide in an
addendum to this Adoption Agreement, numbered Section 3.04, any
modifications to the Plan necessary to satisfy the top heavy requirements
under Code Section 416.

employs the Participant.
[ ] (n) Only to the Participants directly employed by the contributing

the participating Employers the Participant's Compensation and, if
applicable, the Participant's Integration Level under Option (i).

required under Sections 5.04 or 9.14, the Advisory Committee will allocate
