Booz Allen Hamilton 401(k) match, vesting and fees

Participants are vested immediately in their contributions and the Company's contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

The Plan includes an automatic enrollment provision whereby all newly eligible employees who do not actively elect to participate or waive participation in the Plan within 60 days of becoming eligible to contribute are enrolled in the Plan. Automatically enrolled participants have their deferral rate set at 6% of eligible compensation and their contributions invested in a fund or funds designated by the Benefits Plans Committee, until changed by the participant. During the 30-day period after the automatic contributions are first withheld, a participant can elect to withdraw the automatic deferral election and request a reimbursement of the contribution made.

Each year, participants may elect a deferral percentage of no less than 1% up to 50% of compensation with respect to Roth contributions and no less than 1% up to 80% of compensation with respect to pre-tax contributions, provided that Roth and pre-tax contributions collectively for any participant cannot exceed 80% of compensation, as defined in the plan document, up to the maximum limits of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $200 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account. The loan interest rate, determined monthly, is set at the prime rate published by the Wall Street Journal as of the end of the month prior to the initiation date of the loan, as defined.
