5 of multiple alternate payees, please divide any amount to be distributed by the number of alternate payees and award an equal share of the amount distributed on behalf of each alternate payee.
7.
Commencement Date and Form of Payment to Alternate Payee: The Alternate
Payee(s) shall receive his/her share of the benefits as soon as administratively feasible following the date this Order is approved as a QDRO by the Plan Administrator. Benefits will be payable to the Alternate Payee(s) in the form of a single lump-sum cash payment. By order of this Court, the Alternate Payee(s) elect to receive his/her distribution in the form of a single lump-sum cash payment. This distribution amount is not an eligible rollover distribution and, therefore, the
Alternate Payee(s) cannot and will not elect to rollover this distribution amount.
The QDRO distribution check shall be made payable to the Alternate Payee(s) and mailed to the following address:
California State Disbursement Unit
P.O. Box 989067
West Sacramento California 95798-9067

Social Security number and (3) CSE Case Number 019XXXXXXX-01 .
8. Death of Alternate Payee(s): To the extent permitted by the Plan and Code Section
414(p), the Alternate Payees may designate a beneficiary to receive payment of the Alternate
Payee's remaining interest in the Plan, if any, upon the Alternate Payee's death; provided, however, that once the Alternate Payee's interest has commenced to be paid to the Alternate
Payees, the form of benefit elected by the Alternate Payees shall determine whether any amounts

Participant's interest in the Plan. If the Alternate Payee(s) fail to properly designate a beneficiary under the Plan, the Alternate Payee's benefit, to the extent provided above, shall be paid in accordance with Plan provisions as if the Alternate Payee(s) were Participants under the Plan.
9. Death of Participant: Should the Participant predecease the Alternate Payee(s) before the
QDRO distribution is made, such Participant's death shall not affect the Alternate Payee's rights to receive his/her assigned portion of the benefits as set forth herein. To that extent, the
Alternate Payee(s) shall be treated as the Participant's beneficiary under the Plan to the extent of his/her assigned interest.
10. Savings Clause: This Order is not intended, and shall not be construed in such a manner as to require the Plan:

(c) to require the payment of any benefits to the Alternate Payee(s) which are required to be paid to another alternate payee under another order which was previously deemed to be a QDRO.
11. Tax Treatment of Distributions Made Under this Order: In accordance with §402(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (26 USC 402) and IRS Publication 575, all payments to or for the benefit of the Alternate Payee(s) under this child support QDRO shall be considered part of the income of Participant and shall be reported by the Plan as income of the Participant, who shall be responsible for payment of all taxes thereon as if the payment had been made directly to the Participant. In accordance with IRC §3405(b) and IRS Notice 89-25, the Participant hereby elects that the Plan Administrator shall withhold 10% of the QDRO distribution for the benefit of the Participant and shall send the IRS Form 1099 to the Participant to reflect his/her tax obligation accordingly.
12. Inadvertent Payments to Participant: In the event that the Plan Trustee inadvertently pays to the Participant any benefits that are assigned to the Alternate Payee pursuant to the terms of this Order, the Participant shall immediately return such funds to the Plan Trustee within ten
(10) days of receipt.

Order, or that could diminish or extinguish the rights and entitlements of the Alternate Payee as set forth herein. Should the Participant take any action or inaction to the detriment of the
Alternate Payee, he/she shall be required to make sufficient payments directly to the Alternate
Payee to the extent necessary to neutralize the effects of his/her actions or inactions and to the extent of his/her full entitlements hereunder.
