Participants Also Covered Under Defined Benefit Plan Clause Samples

This clause establishes that individuals who are already participants in a defined benefit plan are also included under the scope of the agreement or policy in question. In practice, this means that employees who accrue retirement benefits through a defined benefit plan are not excluded from additional coverage, rights, or obligations set forth in the document. For example, if the agreement provides certain protections or benefits, these will extend to those already covered by a defined benefit plan. The core function of this clause is to ensure comprehensive coverage and prevent gaps in benefits or protections for participants, thereby promoting fairness and clarity in the administration of employee benefits.
Participants Also Covered Under Defined Benefit Plan. If a Participant who is not a Key Employee and who is an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year also participates in one or more defined benefit plans which are part of the same Aggregation Group as the Plan, and if such defined benefit plan or plans do not satisfy the minimum benefit requirements of section 416 of the Code with respect to such Participant, then, with respect to such Participant, “5%” shall be substituted for “the lesser of (1) 3% or (2) the largest percentage of such contributions and forfeitures (including, for any Plan Year beginning after 1988, contributions under Section 4.1(a)), expressed as a percentage of Section 415 Compensation, allocated on behalf of any Key Employee for that Plan Year” in (a) above.

  • How We Calculate Benefits Under These Rules When this plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits so that the total benefits paid or provided by all plans are not more than the total allowable expenses. In determining the amount to be paid for any claim, the secondary plan will calculate the benefits it would have paid in the absence of other healthcare coverage and apply that calculated amount to any allowable expense under its plan that is unpaid by the primary plan. The secondary plan may then reduce its payment by the amount so that, when combined with the amount paid by the primary plan, the total benefits paid or provided by all plans for the claim do not exceed the total allowable expense for that claim. In addition, the secondary plan shall credit to its plan deductible any amounts it would have credited to its deductible in the absence of other healthcare coverage.
