By signing this Agreement, Employee agrees to modify his/her salary as indicated above and Employer agrees to contribute this amount on

contributions to aid in proper allocation to segregated accounts by the Provider(s). It is intended that the requirements of all applicable state and
federal tax rules and regulations (Applicable Law) will be met.
The Employee understands and agrees that this Agreement:
1. Is legally binding and irrevocable with respect to amounts paid or available while it is in effect; 2. May be terminated at any time for amounts
not yet paid or available, and that a termination request is permanent and remains in effect until a new salary reduction agreement is
submitted; 3. Is effective only for amounts not yet earned or made available in accordance with the Employer’s administrative procedures.
Employee further agrees that:
He/she may be assessed fees associated with administering the Plan either directly by the product vendor or by payroll deduction. He/she is

He/she is responsible for the accuracy of the information provided by Employee, which is used in determining Employee’s maximum annual
contribution limit; and Employer has no liability for any losses suffered by Employee that result from his/her participation in the Plan.
Employee acknowledges that Employer has made no representation to Employee regarding the advisability, appropriateness or tax
consequences of the Plan investment(s) selected by the Employee. Nothing herein shall affect the terms of employment between Employer
and Employee.
This agreement supersedes all prior salary reduction agreements and shall automatically terminate if your employment with the Employer is
terminated.
