What the filing says, word for word

This filing states the change across several passages rather than in one sentence, so no quote is shown. The change is recorded from the filing itself, which is linked above, and nothing here is taken from press coverage.

Where this change comes from

401(k) Monitor reads the employer match, vesting, eligibility and automatic enrollment terms out of each plan’s SEC Form 11-K annual report. A change is recorded only when the filing states it, with the effective date the filing gives.
