Deferral Elections

Traditional 401(k): The traditional 401(k) feature allows you to save on a pre-tax basis, providing a tax benefit today. Your qualifying pre-tax contributions, employer contributions and all earnings on those monies are not subject to current taxation until you take them out of the Plan. This tax deferral gives your retirement savings the opportunity to grow under favorable terms.

Roth 401(k): The Roth 401(k) feature allows you to save for your retirement on an after-tax basis. The benefit of this feature is that distributions of your Roth deferrals and all associated earnings will be tax-free at retirement, provided certain conditions are met.

Catch-Up Contributions: If you are age 50 or older you are able to make additional “catch-up” contributions, subject to IRS dollar limits, on either a pre-tax or after-tax basis. 


Company Match

Company Matching Contributions: The Company will match 100% of the first 6% of pay you contribute to the Plan in a payroll period. Matching contributions are immediately 100% vested.
