415 limit and catch up contributions

If a client wants to make a discretionary match to its 401k; the maximum contribution for 2022 is $61,000; this is reduced by elective deferrals — but does it also include the age 50+ special catch up? For example; if a person is age 60 and puts in 27,000 in 2022 ($6,500 catch up) does the 415 get reduced for employer contributions to $34,000 ($61,000 less $27,000) or to $40,500 ($61,000 less $20,500)? Thank you.
