Benefits Handbook

If you are an employee of a business that is acquired by a participating company during a Plan year, you are eligible to join the Plan during the next annual enrollment period for the following Plan year, provided you otherwise meet the Plan's eligibility requirements. If you have at least one year of vesting service, you will become eligible to receive fixed Company credits, provided you otherwise meet the Plan's eligibility requirements. The Fixed Company Credits will not begin until the Plan year following your initial Annual Enrollment period, even if you were previously credited with one year of Vesting Service on account of pre-acquisition service.
