Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction the numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions to the Participant's account under all the defined contribution plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by the Employer for the current and all prior Limitation years (including the Annual Additions attributable to the Participant's nondeductible voluntary contributions to this and all the defined benefit plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by the Employer and the Annual Additions attributable to all welfare benefit funds, as defined in section 419(e) of the Code or individual medical accounts, as defined in section 415(1)(2) of the Code, or a simplified employee pension, as defined in section 408(k) of the Code, maintained by the Employer), and the denominator of which is the sum of the Maximum Aggregate Amounts for the current and all prior Limitation Years of Service with the Employer (regardless of whether a defined contribution plan was maintained by the Employer). The Maximum Aggregate Amount in any Limitation Year is the lesser of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the dollar limitation determined under Sections 415(b) and (d) of the Code in effect under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code or thirty-five percent (35%) of the Participant's Compensation for such year. If the Employee was a Participant as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 1986, in one or more defined contribution plans maintained by the Employer which were in existence on May 6, 1986, the numerator of this fraction will be adjusted if the sum of this fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction would otherwise exceed one (1.0) times under the terms of this Plan. Under the adjustment, an amount equal to the product of (a) the excess of the sum of the fractions over 1.0 times (b) the denominator of this fraction will be permanently subtracted from the numerator of this fraction. The adjustment is calculated using the fractions as they would be computed as of the end of the last Limitation Year beginning before January 1, 1987, and disregarding any changes in the terms and condition of the Plans made after May 5, 1986, but using the limitation of section 415 of the Code applicable to the first Limitation Year beginning on or after January 1, 1987. The Annual Additions for any Limitation Year beginning before January 1, 1987 shall not be recomputed to treat all Employee contributions as Annual Additions.
Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the annual additions to the member’s account under all qualified defined contribution plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by the employer for the current and all prior limitation years, (including the annual additions attributable to the member’s nondeductible employee contributions to this and all other qualified defined benefit plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by the employer and the annual additions attributable to all welfare benefit funds, as defined in Section 419(e) of the Code or individual medical account as defined in Section 415(1)(2) of the Code, maintained by the employer), and the denominator of which is the sum of the maximum aggregate amounts for the current and all prior limitation years of service with the employer (regardless of whether a qualified defined contribution plan was maintained by the employer). For purposes hereof, the maximum aggregate amount in any limitation year is the lesser of (i) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the dollar limitation determined under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code after adjustment under Section 415(d) of the Code and (ii) thirty-five percent
Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of all "annual additions" credited to an Active Participant for the current Limitation Year and all prior Limitation Years and the denominator of which is the sum of the "maximum permissible amounts" for the current Limitation Year and all prior Limitation Years during which the Participant was an Employee (regardless of whether the "415 employer" maintained a defined contribution plan in any such Limitation Year). If the Active Participant was a participant as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 1986, in one or more defined contribution plans maintained by the "415 employer" which were in existence on May 6, 1986, then the numerator of the "defined contribution fraction" shall be adjusted if the sum of this fraction and the "defined benefit fraction" would otherwise exceed 1.0 under the terms of the Plan. Under the adjustment an amount equal to the product of (1) the excess of the sum of the fractions over 1.0 and (2) the denominator of this fraction shall be permanently subtracted from the numerator of this fraction. The adjustment is calculated using the fractions as they would be computed as of the end of the last Limitation Year beginning before January 1, 1987, and disregarding any changes in the terms and conditions of the plans made after May 6, 1986, but using the Section 415 limitation applicable to the first Limitation Year beginning on or after January 1, 1987. For purposes of determining the "defined contribution fraction", the "annual additions" for Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 1.987 shall not be recomputed to treat all employee contributions as "annual additions".
Examples of Defined Contribution Fraction in a sentence
For each Plan Year in which the Plan is Top Heavy, 100% shall be substituted for 125% in determining the Defined Benefit Fraction and the Defined Contribution Fraction.
In any Limitation Year beginning prior to January 1, 2000 in which the Top-Heavy Ratio exceeds 90% (i.e., the Plan becomes Super Top-Heavy), the denominators of the Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined Contribution Fraction shall be computed using 100% of the dollar limitation instead of 125%.
If the Employer maintains, or at any time maintained, a Defined Benefit Plan covering any Participant in this Plan, the sum of the Participant's Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined Contribution Fraction will not exceed 1.0 in any Limitation Year.
In any Plan Year in which the Top-Heavy Ratio exceeds 90% (i.e., the Plan becomes Super Top-Heavy), the denominators of the Defined Benefit Fraction (as defined in paragraph 1.15) and Defined Contribution Fraction (as defined in paragraph 1.18) shall be computed using 100% of the dollar limitation instead of 125%.
For any Plan Year in which the Plan is Top-Heavy, the Defined Benefit Fraction and the Defined Contribution Fraction described in Article 6 shall each be computed using 100% of the dollar limitations specified in Sections 415(b)(1)(A) and 415(c)(1)(A) instead of 125%.
More Definitions of Defined Contribution Fraction
Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction:
Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions allocated to the Participant's accounts for the applicable Limitation Year and each prior Limitation Year, and the denominator of which is the sum of the lesser of the following products for each Limitation Year in which the Participant was an Employee (regardless of whether a Defined Contribution Plan was in existence for such Limitation Year) (i) the Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation (determined for this purpose without regard to the provisions of Code section 415(c)(6)) effective for the Limitation Year multiplied by 125%, or (ii) 35% of the Participant's Includable Compensation for such Limitation Year.
Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the annual additions to the participant's account under all the defined contribution plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by an Employer or Affiliate for the current and all prior Limitation Years, and the denominator of which is the sum of the maximum aggregate amounts for the current and all prior Limitation Years of service with the Employer (regardless of whether a defined contribution plan was maintained by the Employer or Affiliate). The maximum aggregate amount in any Limitation Year is the lesser of 125 percent of the dollar limitation determined under Sections 415(b) and (d) of the Code in effect under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code or 35 percent of the participant's compensation for such year.
Defined Contribution Fraction means for a given Plan Year a fraction:
Defined Contribution Fraction means, for any Participant, the fraction (determined as of the last day of the Limitation Year) which shall have a numerator equal to the sum of the Participant’s Annual Additions and a denominator equal to the sum of the lesser of the following amounts determined for such Limitation Year and for each prior Limitation Year for which the Participant was credited with a Year of Service:

Defined Contribution Fraction means a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of all "annual additions" credited to an Active Participant for the current Limitation Year and all prior Limitation Years and the denominator of which is the sum of the "maximum permissible amounts" for the current Limitation Year and all prior Limitation Years during which the Participant was an Employee (regardless of whether the "415 employer" maintained a defined contribution plan in any such Limitation Year). If the Active Participant was a participant as of the first day of the first Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 1986, in one or more defined contribution plans maintained by the "415 employer" which were in existence on May 6, 1986, then the numerator of the "defined contribution fraction" shall be adjusted if the sum of this fraction and the "defined benefit fraction" would otherwise exceed 1.0 under the terms of the Plan. Under the adjustment an amount equal to the product of (1) the excess of the sum of the fractions over 1.0 and (2) the denominator of this fraction shall be permanently subtracted from the numerator of this fraction. The adjustment is calculated using the fractions as they would be computed as of the end of the last Limitation Year beginning before January 1, 1987, and disregarding any changes in the terms and conditions of the plans made after May 6, 1986, but using the Section 415 limitation applicable to the first Limitation Year beginning on or after January 1, 1987. For purposes of determining the "defined contribution fraction", the "annual additions" for Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 1987 shall not be recomputed to treat all employee contributions as "annual additions".
