Other postretirement net periodic benefit costs were de minimis for both the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018.
The service cost component of net periodic pension benefit credits is included in distribution, selling and administrative costs, while the other components of net periodic pension benefit credits are included in other expense (income)—net, respectively, in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
In the third quarter of 2019, the Company amended its defined benefit plan to offer certain terminated plan participants with vested benefits the opportunity to elect to receive an immediate lump sum payment. In addition, the Company intends to spin-off certain active participants with small accrued benefits and retirees into a separate plan and terminate that plan in order to allow those participants the ability to receive an immediate lump sum payout, with any remaining liabilities transferring to an insurance company through the purchase by the Company of an annuity contract. Estimated pension obligation settlement payments related to these transactions of approximately $75 million will be paid from pension plan assets through a combination of lump sum payments and purchased annuities. The Company expects to incur non-cash settlement charges of approximately $19 million in fiscal year 2019, including approximately $16 million in the fourth quarter when the settlements in connection with these transactions are expected to be paid. The $3 million of settlement charges incurred during the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 relate to ordinary course lump sum payment elections as provided under the current plan. Settlement charges are included in other expense (income)—net in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The Company does not expect to make a significant contribution to its Company sponsored defined benefit plans in fiscal year 2019.
Certain employees are eligible to participate in the Company's 401(k) savings plan. The Company made employer matching contributions to the 401(k) plan of $13 million and $11 million for the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively, and $38 million and $36 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively.
The Company is also required to contribute to various multiemployer pension plans under certain of its collective bargaining agreements. The Company’s contributions to these plans were $10 million and $9 million for the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively, and $28 million and $27 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018, respectively.
