Profit Sharing Plan

[jala]

In a Profit Sharing Plan, if a participant elected out of plan participation at the date they became eligible to participate (meaning that they elect not to receive an allocation of any employer contribution), can they at some point in the future, reverse the election, and elect to participate?

Was the opt out based on the one-time irrevocable election provisions under the 401(k) plan regulations?
