B Plan: 12%

Compared to this-

401K:

12% defined contribution; 1% increase per year to 15%
You are seriously suggesting the extra 3% we don’t even get until 2021 is worth more than a $120K/yr payment?

Hint, it costs about $2K a month for 30 years in contributions to get $120K per year for 25 years. The extra company match of 3% is about $500 per month.
