Any employee benefit plan established or maintained by any employer, employee organization or organization representing employees engaged in commerce or in any industry or activity affecting commerce is covered by ERISA. ERISA does not apply to government plans or tax­exempt church plans as defined by the Act. Also exempt are plans maintained solely for the purpose of complying with workers compensation, unemployment or disability insurance laws or those maintained outside of the U.S. primarily for the benefit of persons substantially all of whom are nonresident aliens. If a plan is an excess benefit, providing benefits or contributions in excess of those allowable for tax qualified plans, it is exempt from ERISA.
