Allocating Employer Contributions Sample Clauses

The "Allocating Employer Contributions" clause defines how an employer's financial contributions are distributed among various employee benefit plans or accounts. Typically, this clause outlines the specific percentage or amount the employer will contribute to each plan, such as retirement funds, health insurance, or other benefits, and may set eligibility requirements or contribution limits. Its core practical function is to ensure transparency and fairness in the distribution of employer-provided benefits, preventing misunderstandings and disputes over how contributions are allocated.
Allocating Employer Contributions. (a) The Employer must specify in the Adoption Agreement the manner in which the Employer’s contribution shall be allocated to Participants including any minimum contribution for Top-Heavy Plans. Employer contributions shall be allocated to all Participants eligible to receive a contribution as provided in the Adoption Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, Participants will accrue the right to share in allocations of Employer contributions with respect to periods of qualified military service as provided in Code Section 414(u). (c) At the end of each Plan Year the Plan Administrator shall re-determine any Matching Contribution for each Participant based on his or her eligible annual Compensation in accordance with the Matching Contribution formula elected by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement. Any Participant for whom any Matching Contribution has not been sufficiently made in accordance with the Matching Contribution formula elected by the Employer shall receive an additional Matching Contribution so that the total annual deferrals (whether pre-tax or after-tax) reflected as a percentage of eligible annual Compensation are matched in accordance with the Matching Contribution formula (“true-up” of Matching Contributions) selected by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement. If no election is made in the Adoption Agreement, no true-up of Matching Contributions will occur.

Allocating Employer Contributions. The Employer's contribution shall be allocated to Participants in accordance with the allocation formula selected by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement, and the minimum contribution and allocation requirements for Top-Heavy Plans. Beginning with the 1990 Plan Year and thereafter, for plans on Standardized Adoption Agreement 001, Participants who are credited with more than 500 Hours of Service or are employed on the last day of the Plan Year must receive a full allocation of Employer contributions. In Nonstandardized Adoption Agreement 002, Employer contributions shall be allocated to the accounts of Participants employed by the Employer on the last day of the Plan Year unless indicated otherwise in the Adoption Agreement. In the case of a non-Top-Heavy, Nonstandardized Plan, Participants must also have completed a Year of Service unless otherwise specified in the Adoption Agreement. For Nonstandardized Adoption Agreement 002, the Employer may only apply the last day of the Plan Year and Year of Service requirements if the Plan satisfies the requirements of Code Sections 401(a)(26) and 410(b) and the regulations thereunder including the exception for 401(k) plans. If, when applying the last day and Year of Service requirements, the Plan fails to satisfy the aforementioned requirements, additional Participants will be eligible to receive an allocation of Employer Contributions until the requirements are satisfied. Participants who are credited with a Year of Service, but not employed at Plan Year end, are the first category of additional Participants eligible to receive an allocation. If the requirements are still not satisfied, Participants credited with more than 500 Hours of Service and employed at Plan Year end are the next category of Participants eligible to receive an allocation. Finally, if necessary to satisfy the said requirements, any Participant credited with more than 500 Hours of Service will be eligible for an allocation of Employer Contributions. The Service requirement is not applicable with respect to any Plan Year during which the Employer's Plan is Top-Heavy.
