Subjects such contributions, on the other hand, to the requirements for deduction as an allowable trade or business expense.</p> <p>Treats a trust holding the assets of such a pension benefit plan as a tax-exempt organization.</p> <p>Excludes from wages any payments made to, or on behalf of, an employee or his or her beneficiary under such a plan.</p>]]></text>
