For any participant eligible to receive benefits under this Plan, the value of such benefit is an amount that is determined by notionally crediting on a monthly basis the amount of employer contributions that cannot be made to the Savings Plan for that person as a result of application to that person of Code sections 415 and 401(a)(17).
