Pension Benefits Pension Benefits

We sponsor qualified and supplemental (non-qualified) noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain full-time salaried and hourly U.S. employees.  The most significant of these plans, the YUM Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), is funded. We fund our other U.S. plan as benefits are paid.  The Plan and our most significant non-qualified plan in the U.S. are closed to new salaried participants.  

The components of net periodic benefit cost associated with our significant U.S. pension plans are as follows:
