Company matching contributions totaled approximately $2.4&amp;#160;million, $2.2&amp;#160;million and $1.9&amp;#160;million for each of the years ended June&amp;#160;30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: times;"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;For participants hired through December&amp;#160;31, 2000, employee and employer matching contributions are 100% vested immediately. For employees hired on or after January&amp;#160;1, 2001, vesting of the employer match is on a 20%, 5-year vesting schedule.
