Program Enrollment and Election

I elect to participate in the Employer's Profit Sharing Program as set forth below. Election is subject to the Plan's eligibility and administrative rules. Enrollment effective date: .

Pro rata allocation based on eligible compensation
Unit allocation (hours or service units) per Plan document
Employer discretionary contribution subject to Board/Plan Administrator determination

Vesting and Distribution

Vesting Schedule: The Participant's right to employer profit sharing contributions is determined by the Plan's vesting schedule. Standard Company vesting is a graded schedule: 20% after each full year of service, reaching 100% after five (5) years of Vesting Service, unless a different schedule applies under the Plan or written agreement.

Distribution Options: Distributions shall be made in accordance with Plan rules, including lump-sum, rollover to an eligible retirement account, or installment payments where permitted. Participants electing distribution must complete distribution forms supplied by Plan Administrator.

Tax Treatment and Forfeitures

Tax Withholding: All distributions are subject to applicable federal and state tax withholding. The Company will withhold taxes as required by law. Participants are responsible for tax reporting and any additional tax consequences of distributions, including early withdrawal penalties where applicable.

Forfeitures: Amounts forfeited under the Plan due to termination of service or a failure to meet vesting requirements will be handled pursuant to the Plan document and applicable law and may be applied to reduce future employer contributions or administrative expenses.

Plan Administration, Amendment and Termination

Administration: The Plan Administrator named in the official Plan document is authorized to determine eligibility, interpret Plan terms, and make all factual determinations required for administration. Decisions by the Plan Administrator are final and binding to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Amendment and Termination: The Company reserves the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Profit Sharing Program at any time, in whole or in part, subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law. No amendment or termination shall impair rights to benefits already vested in accordance with the Plan.

Claims and Appeals

Benefit Claims: Claims for benefits under the Plan must be submitted in writing to the Plan Administrator. The Administrator will provide written notice of any denial and the reason for denial. The Participant may appeal a denial by submitting a written request for review within the period specified by the Plan.
