Sec. 4.

(a) The annual compensation limitations of Code Section 401(a)(17) shall be applied as follows:

(1) The annual compensation limit under Code Section 401(a)(17), as amended by OBRA '93 and EGTRRA, shall not apply to any eligible participant, in any future year, to the extent that the application of the annual compensation limit in Code Section 401(a)(17), as amended by OBRA '93 and EGTRRA, would reduce the amount of annual compensation that is allowed to be taken into account under the fund as in effect on July 1, 1993. As used in this subdivision, "eligible participants" includes all members who participated in the fund prior to July 1, 1996.

(2) The annual compensation limit under Code Section 401(a)(17), as amended by OBRA '93, will be effective with respect to noneligible participants as of July 1, 1996. As used in this subdivision, "noneligible participants" includes all members who did not participate in a fund prior to July 1, 1996.

(b) Effective for years beginning after December 31, 2001, the annual compensation limit under Code Section 401(a)(17), as amended by EGTRRA, will be effective with respect to noneligible participants. The annual compensation limit will be adjusted for cost-of-living increases in accordance with Section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code. Annual compensation means compensation during the plan year or such other consecutive twelve (12) month period over which compensation is otherwise determined under the plan (the determination period). The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to annual compensation for the determination period that begins with or within such calendar year. If the determination period consists of fewer than twelve (12) months, the annual compensation limit is an amount equal to the otherwise applicable annual compensation limit multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months in the short determination period, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). If the compensation for any prior determination period is taken into account in determining a plan member's contributions or benefits for the current plan year, the compensation for such prior determination period is subject to the applicable annual compensation limit in effect for that prior period.
