We have enhanced your deferred compensation plan catch-up limit support to comply with the latest SECURE 2.0 Act changes.  As of January 1, 2025, the age catch-up deferrals allowed for employees who are of age 60 through 63 is increased to a higher limit.

These limits are delivered through these value definitions.
