| Deferred Compensation Plan |
The Bank has entered into supplemental compensation benefits agreements with certain directors and executive officers. The measurement of the liability under these agreements includes estimates involving life expectancy, length of time before retirement and the expected returns on the bank-owned life insurance policies used to fund those agreements. Should these estimates prove materially wrong, the cost of these agreements could change accordingly. The related deferred compensation obligation to these directors and executive officers included in other liabilities was $3.6 million and $3.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Non-employee directors may elect to defer payment of all or any portion of their USBI and FUSB director fees under the United Security Bancshares, Inc. Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Plan”). The Deferral Plan, which was ratified by shareholders at the annual meeting held on May 11, 2004, permits non-employee directors to invest their directors’ fees and to receive the adjusted value of the deferred amounts in cash and/or shares of USBI’s common stock. Neither USBI nor the Bank makes any contribution to participants’ accounts under the Deferral Plan.
