CONTRIBUTIONS
How much can I contribute to the Plan?
You may contribute between 1 percent and 100 percent of your before-tax pay
in increments of 1 percent. This amount may not exceed the maximum
allowed by the IRS ($22,500 in 2023).
If you are 50 years or older, you can also make “catch-up” contributions of up
to $7,500 in 2023.
Your Plan contributions will be automatically deducted from your pay. Pretax
salary deferrals are deducted from your pay before taxes are taken out. This
process of investing on a pretax basis helps you save for the future while
reducing the taxes you pay now.
PLAN HIGHLIGHTS
What else should I know about contributions?
Ownership of your Plan account is called vesting. You are always 100% vested
in both your contributions and the earnings on those contributions. This
money is yours.
