The Company’s contribution of common stock is valued each quarter based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock. Total expense, including plan maintenance, for the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, in connection with this Plan was $159,632, $162,865 and $158,500, respectively.
