7.A new Section 6.09, “Special COVID-19 Pandemic Rules Regarding Loans and Withdrawals,” is hereby added to the Plan, effective for the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, except as provided below:
2


“Section 6.09 SPECIAL COVID-19 PANDEMIC RULES REGARDING LOANS AND WITHDRAWALS. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) includes special rules regarding plan loans and in-service withdrawals during the 2020 Plan Year only. This Section 6.09 is generally effective for the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 and is intended to comply with CARES Act Section 2202 and the guidance issued thereunder by the IRS and shall be interpreted and administered consistent with this intent.
A.    Definition of “Qualified Individual.” Pursuant to section 2202(a)(4)(A)(ii) of the CARES Act, a “Qualified Individual” for purposes of this Section is a Participant who certifies to the Plan Administrator that he meets one of the following requirements, provided the Plan Administrator does not have actual knowledge to the contrary:
1.    He is diagnosed with the virus SARS-CoV-2 or with coronavirus disease 2019 (referred to collectively as COVID-19) by a test approved by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (including a test authorized under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act);
2.    His Spouse or dependent (as defined in section 152 of the Code) is diagnosed with COVID-19 by a test approved by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (including a test authorized under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act); or
3.    He experiences adverse financial consequences as a result of:
(a)    being quarantined, being furloughed or laid off, or having work hours reduced due to COVID-19;
(b)    being unable to work due to lack of childcare due to COVID-19;
(c)    closing or reducing hours of a business owned or operated by him due to COVID-19;
(d)    having a reduction in pay (or self-employment income) due to COVID-19 or having a job offer rescinded or start date for a job delayed due to COVID-19;
(d)    his Spouse or a member of his household (as defined below) being quarantined, being furloughed or laid off, or having work hours reduced due to COVID-19, being unable to work due to lack of childcare due to COVID-19, having a reduction in pay (or self-employment income) due to COVID-19, or having a job offer rescinded or start date for a job delayed due to COVID-19; or
(e)    closing or reducing hours of a business owned or operated by his Spouse or a member of his household due to COVID-19.
For purposes of applying these factors, a member of the Participant’s household is someone who shares the Participant’s principal residence.
B.    Definition of “Coronavirus-related Distribution.”    Section 2202(a)(4)(A) of the CARES Act defines a “Coronavirus-related Distribution” as any distribution from an eligible retirement plan made on or after January 1, 2020, and before December 31, 2020, to a Qualified Individual. Section 2202(a)(2) of the CARES Act limits the amount of aggregate distributions from all eligible retirement plans that can be treated as Coronavirus-related Distributions to no more than $100,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following amounts are not eligible to be treated as Coronavirus-related Distributions: corrective distributions of Elective Deferral Contributions that are returned to the Participant (together with the income allocable thereto) in order to comply with the limitations of Code Section 415; Elective Deferral Contributions in excess of the limitation under Code Section 402(g) that are returned to the Participant (together with the income allocable thereto); Excess Elective Deferral Contributions under Code Section 401(k); Excess Aggregate Contributions under Code Section 401(m); loans that are treated as deemed distributions pursuant to Code Section 72(p); dividends paid on applicable employer securities under Code Section 404(k); and distributions that are permissible withdrawals from an eligible automatic contribution arrangement within the meaning of Code Section 414(w) .
3


C.    Coronavirus-related Distributions. Effective as of January 1, 2020 through December 30, 2020, a Participant who is a Qualified Individual may request a withdrawal from the vested portions of his Accounts in an amount not in excess of $100,000 as a Coronavirus-related Distribution. This dollar limit applies in the aggregate to all Coronavirus-related Distributions requested from the Plan and any other tax qualified plans maintained by the Employer, if any. A Coronavirus-related Distribution is not required to meet a need related to COVID-19. However, a distribution that was made for other reasons during the 2020 Plan Year may be recharacterized as a Coronavirus-related Distribution if the Participant is a Qualified Individual and provides the required certification of such status within time limits established by the Plan Administrator.
    If a Coronavirus-related Distribution is eligible for tax-free rollover treatment under applicable provisions of the Code, a Qualified Individual is permitted, at any time in the 3-year period beginning the day after the date of a Coronavirus-related Distribution, to recontribute any portion of the distribution, but not an amount in excess of the amount of the distribution, to an eligible retirement plan, including the Plan, as a Rollover Contribution. Any Coronavirus-related Distribution paid to a Qualified Individual as a Beneficiary of a Participant (other than the surviving Spouse of the Participant) cannot be recontributed.
D.    Special Rules for Plan Loans.    The CARES Act also provides certain Plan loan relief for a Qualified Individual, defined as set forth above. These temporary changes to the Plan loan requirements include:
1.    A temporary increase in the Plan loan limit (up to the lesser of the present value of the Participant’s vested account balance under the Plan or $100,000) for loans made during the 180-day period following enactment of the CARES Act (on or after March 27, 2020 and before September 23, 2020).
2.    Delaying for an additional year any Plan loan repayment that comes due during the period beginning on enactment of the CARES Act (March 27, 2020) and ending on December 31, 2020. Any subsequent repayments will be adjusted to reflect the delay in due date and any interest accrued during the delay. Accordingly, any Plan loan payments coming due before the end of the calendar year may now be suspended for a one-year period for Qualified Individuals. In addition, any subsequent repayments of the loan shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the delay and any interest accruing during the delay, and the period of delay shall be disregarded in determining the 5-year period and the term of the loan under Code Sections 72(p)(2)(B) and (C).
E.    Administration. The Plan Administrator shall administer the foregoing provisions in accordance with IRS Notice 2020-50 and any additional guidance issued under the CARES Act. This Section only applies to the extent the Plan has provided some or all of the relief listed above in compliance with applicable law.”
