Qualified Matching Employer Contributions Sample Clauses

The Qualified Matching Employer Contributions clause defines the employer's obligation to match a portion of employee contributions to a retirement or savings plan, provided certain eligibility criteria are met. Typically, this clause specifies the percentage or amount the employer will match, the types of employee contributions that qualify, and any limits or vesting schedules that apply. Its core practical function is to incentivize employee participation in savings plans while ensuring that employer contributions are made in a structured and predictable manner, thereby supporting employee financial security and compliance with relevant regulations.
Qualified Matching Employer Contributions. Prior to making any Matching Employer Contribution hereunder (other than a 401(k) Safe Harbor Matching Employer Contribution), the Employer may designate all or a portion of such Matching Employer Contribution as a Qualified Matching Employer Contribution that may be used to satisfy the “ADP” test on Deferral Contributions and excluded in applying the “ACP” test on Employee and Matching Employer Contributions. Unless the additional eligibility requirement is selected below, Qualified Matching Employer Contributions shall be allocated to all Participants who were Active Participants during the Contribution Period and who meet the continuing eligibility requirement(s) described in Subsection 1.11(e) above for the type of Matching Employer Contribution being characterized as a Qualified Matching Employer Contribution. (1) ¨ To receive an allocation of Qualified Matching Employer Contributions a Participant must also be a Non-Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year. Note: Qualified Matching Employer Contributions may not be excluded in applying the “ACP” test for a Plan Year if the Employer elected Option 1.11(a)(3), 401(k) Safe Harbor Matching Employer Contributions, or Option 1.12(a)(3), 401(k) Safe Harbor Formula, with respect to Nonelective Employer Contributions, and the “ADP” test is deemed satisfied under Section 6.09 of the Basic Plan Document for such Plan Year.
