NOTE 6: EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 

Pension Plan

Prior to January 1995, we maintained a noncontributory defined benefit plan (the “Pension Plan”) covering all eligible employees. During 1995, the Pension Plan was curtailed. Accordingly, all accrued benefits were fully vested and no additional years of service or age will be accrued.

 

The following tables summarize the components of net periodic benefit cost and other changes in Pension Plan assets and benefit obligations recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively:

Our Pension Investment Policy Statement sets for the investment objectives and constraints of the Pension Plan. The purpose of the policy is to assist and our Retirement Plan Committee in effectively supervising, monitoring, and evaluating the Pension Plan.
