During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company made contributions of $11,576 for postretirement benefits.
 
As a result of employee contractual amendments in 2010, and the adoption of the Plan of Liquidation in 2011, three officers of the Company will no longer receive benefits from the contractual pension and postretirement benefits plans. As a result of the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, benefits payable under the postretirement benefit plan were $84,681 at March 31, 2011 and $75,000 at September 30, 2011.
