During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, approximately $28.2 million of contributions had been made to the Company’s defined pension benefit plans. The Company currently estimates its minimum contributions for 2015 to its defined pension benefit plans will aggregate approximately $36.4 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company made approximately $1.0 million of contributions to its postretirement health care and life insurance benefit plans. The Company currently estimates that it will make approximately $1.5 million of contributions to its postretirement health care and life insurance benefit plans during 2015.

In October 2015, the Company amended its Executive Nonqualified Pension Plan (“ENPP”) to (a) limit participation to only those individuals who were participants in the ENPP as of July 31, 2015, (b) add an additional benefit, commencing at the end of the current 15-year benefit period, providing each participant an annuity in an amount equal to the annual payment during that 15-year period (or an equivalent value if a joint and survivor annuity is selected by the participant), and (c) to make various other administrative changes. The new benefit generally will be available only to participants who retire on or after reaching normal retirement age and otherwise have a vested benefit under the plan.
