                which may be excluded with respect to qualified 
                retirement planning services provided to any individual 
                during a taxable year shall not exceed $1,500.
                    ``(B) Adjusted gross income.--No amount may be 
                excluded with respect to qualified retirement planning 
                services provided during a taxable year if the modified 
                adjusted gross income of the taxpayer for such taxable 
                year exceeds $100,000 ($200,000 in the case of married 
                individuals filing a joint return). For purposes of 
                this subparagraph, the term `modified adjusted gross 
                income' means adjusted gross income, determined without 
                regard to this section and sections 911, 931, and 933.

        provided by a qualified investment advisor and compensation 
        which would otherwise be includible in the gross income of such 
        employee. The preceding sentence shall apply to highly 
        compensated employees only if the choice described in such 
        sentence is available on substantially the same terms to each 
        member of the group of employees normally provided education 
        and information regarding the employer's qualified employer 
        plan.''
    (b) Conforming Amendments.--
            (1) Section 403(b)(3)(B) of such Code is amended by

        ``132(m)(4),'' after ``132(f)(4),''.
            (3) Section 415(c)(3)(D)(ii) of such Code is amended by 
        inserting ``132(m)(4),'' after ``132(f)(4),''.
    (c) Effective Date.--The amendment made by this section shall apply 
to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2002.
Amends the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) to provide for information and advice to assist pension plan participants in making decisions regarding the investment of their pension plan assets under defined contribution plans that are individual account plans (IAPs) (401(k) and similar plans) which hold regularly tradable employment securities and permit participants or beneficiaries to exercise control over assets in the account.Requires the plan administrator to include in the account statement a notice that the account may be overinvested in employer securities and real property, whenever assets consisting of employer securities and real property exceed 50 percent of total IAP assets. Excludes from such notice requirement: (1) assets held through pooled investment vehicles; and (2) employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) that have no contributions subject to section 401 (k) or (m) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).Amends IRC to limit to$1,500 the aggregate amount which may be excluded from gross income with respect to qualified retirement planning services (QRPS) provided to any individual during a taxable year. Prohibits exclusion of any such amount if the modified adjusted gross income of the taxpayer exceeds $100,000 ($200,000 for married individuals filing a joint return). Provides that no amount (constructive receipt) shall be included in the gross income of any employee solely because the employee may choose between any QRPS provided by a qualified investment advisor, and compensation which would otherwise be includible in the employee's gross income. Applies such provision to highly compensated employees only if such choice is available on substantially the same terms to each member of the group of employees normally provided education and information regarding the employer's qualified employer plan.
