Employee Savings Plans
 
The Company sponsors a qualified defined contribution retirement plan ("401(k) Savings Plan") covering salaried and hourly employees who have completed ninety days of service and have attained the age of twenty-one.  This plan allows eligible employees to defer receipt of up to 50% of their compensation, as defined in the plan.  The Company also sponsors a non-qualified defined contribution retirement plan ("Non-Qualified Savings Plan") covering highly compensated employees, as defined in the plan.  This plan allows eligible employees to defer receipt of up to 50% of their base compensation and 100% of their eligible bonuses, as defined in the plan.
 
Contributions under both plans may be invested in various investment funds at the employee's discretion.  Such contributions, including the Company matching contribution described below, may not be invested in the Company's common stock.  In 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company matched 25% of employee contributions for each participant in either plan up to a total of 6% of the employee's compensation.  Employee contributions vest immediately while Company contributions vest 20% annually beginning on the participant's first anniversary of employment and are vested 100% on the participant's fifth anniversary of employment.
 
At the inception of the Non-Qualified Savings Plan, the Company established a Rabbi Trust to fund the plan's obligations.  The market value of the trust assets for the Non-Qualified Savings Plan of $29,443 is included in other assets and the related liability to the participants of $29,443 is included in other long-term obligations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Company contributions under both plans are recorded as either labor and other related expenses or general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 
The following table summarizes the Company's contributions for each plan for each of the three years:
