An employee is eligible to participate in the Plan immediately upon employment and receive a dollar for dollar matching contribution up to 6% of his or her base compensation. The matching contributions for years ended December&nbsp;31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were $3.4&nbsp;million, $3.6&nbsp;million, and $3.7&nbsp;million, respectively, and did not exceed the statutory limits. In 2008, the vesting for the matching contribution was 25% each year for four years. Effective September&nbsp;1, 2009, the Plan was amended to eliminate all vesting requirements for matching and discretionary contributions. </div> <div style="margin-top: 6pt; font-size: 10pt;" align="left">In 2009 and 2008, we had a management incentive compensation plan which rewarded managerial employees when our financial results met or exceeded thresholds set by our Board of Directors. No amounts were expensed under this plan in 2009 or 2008. In 2009, in an effort to conserve cash, the participants in the management incentive compensation plan voluntarily waived their rights to receive cash awards. In 2008, no payout was made under the plan, as we did not meet the minimum threshold requirements under the terms of the plan. In 2010, this plan was replaced by a performance based stock award. </div></div> </div>13. Employee Benefits We sponsor a 401(k) Plan ("Plan") for our employees.
