Statement of Requirement: Code §I RC 411(d)(3), Treas. Reg. §§ 1.411(a)-4(a),
1.411(a)-4T
330 | Defined Benefit Plan LRM Package 08/2020 06/2026

Sample Plan Language:
In the event of the termination or partial termination of this plan, the rights of all affected employees to benefits accrued to the date of such termination or partial termination (to the extent funded as of such date) shall be nonforfeitable.
(Note to reviewer: A plan will not violate the nonforfeitability requirement of Code §I RC
411 merely because in the event of termination an employee does not have any recourse
toward satisfaction of his nonforfeitable benefits from other than plan assets or the
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation.)
