You become a participant in the Plan either on the date you complete 1,000 hours of service with a contributing employer within 12 consecutive months after you have completed your first hour of service or, at the beginning of a fiscal year, (July 1 through June 30) when you first complete 1,000 hours of service.
Participation will continue unless your service credits are canceled by any of the following events, whichever first occurs:
• You incur a One-Year Break in Service before you become vested in the Plan.
• You should die prior to retirement and before you become vested in the Plan.
