A participant may borrow in increments of $100 from a minimum of $500 to a maximum of up to 50% of the vested portion of the participant’s account or $50,000, whichever is lower, within certain limitations established by the Plan document. Payback periods range from one to five years unless the loan is to be used for the purchase of a principal residence, in which case the payback period generally may not exceed ten years. Certain loans that transferred into the Plan via the acquisition of another plan’s assets may have a payback period exceeding ten years. | Audit report, p. 27 ↗ |
