All of the Company’s marine segment employees except the Associate Divers, the Associate Tugmasters, and union employees in the Pacific Northwest, are eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) Retirement Plan after completing six months of service. Each participant may contribute between 1% and 80% of eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis, up to the annual IRS limit. The Company matches 100% on the first 2% of eligible compensation contributed to the Plan and 50% on the next 2% of eligible compensation contributed to the Plan. Participants’ contributions are fully vested at all times. Employer matching contributions vest over a four-year period. At its discretion, the Company may make additional matching and profit-sharing contributions. During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 the Company contributed $1.4 million, $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively to the Plan.

Each participant may contribute up to the annual IRS limit. The Company matches 50% on the first 6% of eligible compensation contributed to the Plan. Participants’ contributions are fully vested at all times. Employer matching contributions vest over a five-year period. At its discretion, the Company may make additional matching and

profit-sharing contributions. During the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company contributed $0.9 million, less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

The Company contributes to several multi-employer defined pension plans under the terms of collective-bargaining agreements that cover its union-represented employees. Risks of participating in these multi-employer plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects:

● Assets contributed to the multi-employer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers;

● If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and

● If the Company chooses to stop participating in its multi-employer plans, it may be required to pay a withdrawal liability based on the underfunded status of the plan.

The following table presents the Company’s participation in these plans:
