401(k) Plan

G.   401(K) PLAN:

The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement plan that covers substantially all non-union employees. Historically, the Company matched up to 50% of the first 4% of salary contributed by employees to the plan. This matching contribution was made with common stock. Starting in 2004, the Company began to match, in cash, an additional 50% of the first 4% of salary contributed by employees plus 3% of total compensation for certain employees. Contributions made from treasury stock, including the Company's related cash dividends, totaled $1,098,000 in 2015, $1,066,000 in 2014, and $598,000 in 2013. In addition, the Company made cash contributions of $941,000 in 2015, $887,000 in 2014, and $812,000 in 2013 to the 401(k) Plan.  The Company also contributed $393,000, $307,000, and $364,000 to the 401(k) retirement plan covering its union employees at the Amron Division of the AMTEC subsidiary during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
