Common use of Limitations on Compensation Clause in Contracts

Limitations on Compensation. (1) Compensation dollar limitation. For any Plan Year beginning after December 31, 1988, the Advisory Committee must take into account only the first $200,000 (or beginning January 1, 1990, such larger amount as the Commissioner of Internal Revenue may prescribe) of any Participant's Compensation. For any Plan Year beginning prior to January 1, 1989, this $200,000 limitation (but not the family aggregation requirement described in the next paragraph) applies only if the Plan is top heavy for such Plan Year or operates as a deemed top heavy plan for such Plan Year. (2) Application of compensation limitation to certain family members. The $200,000 Compensation limitation applies to the combined Compensation of the Employee and of any family member aggregated with the Employee under Section 1.09 who is either (i) the Employee's spouse; or (ii) the Employee's lineal descendant under the age of 19. If, for a Plan Year, the combined Compensation of the Employee and such family members who are Participants entitled to an allocation for that Plan Year exceeds the $200,000 (or adjusted) limitation, "Compensation" for each such Participant, for purposes of the contribution and allocation provisions of Article III, means his Adjusted Compensation. Adjusted Compensation is the amount which bears the same ratio to the $200,000 (or adjusted) limitation as the affected Participant's Compensation (without regard to the $200,000 Compensation limitation) bears to the combined Compensation of all the affected Participants in the family unit. If the Plan uses permitted disparity, the Advisory Committee must determine the integration level of each affected family member Participant prior to the proration of the $200,000 Compensation limitation, but the combined integration level of the affected Participants may not exceed $200,000 (or the adjusted limitation). The combined Excess Compensation of the affected Participants in the family unit may not exceed $200,000 (or the adjusted limitation) minus the affected Participants' combined integration level (as determined under the preceding sentence). If the combined Excess Compensation exceeds this limitation, the Advisory Committee will prorate the Excess Compensation limitation among the affected Participants in the family unit in proportion to each such individual's Adjusted Compensation minus his integration level. If the Employer's Plan is a Nonstandardized Plan, the Employer may elect to use a different method in determining the Adjusted Compensation of the affected Participants by specifying that method in an addendum to the Adoption Agreement, numbered Section 1.12.
