Loans
Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $500 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance. Loan terms range from one to five years, except for the loan used for the purchase or construction of a principal residence, in which case the Committee may permit a longer loan period. Successive semimonthly installments are paid by the Firm on behalf of the Participants (the Borrowers), supplied concurrently by payroll deductions from the Borrowers’ compensation for the term of the loan. The loans are secured by the balance in the Participant’s account and bear interest at a rate determined by the Committee.
