EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a defined contribution employee benefit plan under Section 401(k) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”) covering substantially all U.S. employees. The 401(k) plan allows employees to make contributions up to a specified percentage of their compensation. The Company may, upon resolution by the Company’s board of directors, make discretionary contributions to the plan. The Company’s contributions to the plan totaled $2.2 million, $2.5 million and $2.9 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011 (Restated), respectively.

In addition, the Company has various retirement and post-employment plans covering certain international employees. Certain of the plans allow the Company to match employee contributions up to a specified percentage as defined by the plans. The Company’s contributions to these plans totaled $1.2 million, $1.4 million and $1.4 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011 (Restated), respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plans

The Company’s board of directors has approved a nonqualified deferred compensation plan (the “Deferred Plan”). The Deferred Plan covers senior management and members of the Board. The plan provides for a trust to which participants can contribute varying percentages or amounts of eligible compensation for deferred payment. Payouts are generally made upon termination of employment with the Company. The benefits payable under the Deferred Plan represent an unfunded and unsecured contractual obligation of the Company to pay the value of the deferred compensation in the future, adjusted to reflect the trust’s investment performance. The assets of the trust, as well as the corresponding obligations, were approximately $1.3 million and $1.1 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and were recorded in “other current assets” and “accrued compensation and benefits” at those dates. In November 2013, the Board determined not to offer senior management or the members of the Board the opportunity to participate in the Deferred Plan in 2014 due to the restatement of the Company’s financial statements and its delays in financial reporting.

In connection with the acquisition of a business in 2010, the Company assumed the assets and liabilities of a deferred compensation arrangement for a single individual in Germany. The arrangement represents a contractual obligation of the Company to pay a fixed euro amount for a period specified in the contract. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s assets and liabilities related to the arrangement consisted of assets recorded in “other long-term assets” of $0.6 million for each year, representing the value of related insurance contracts, and liabilities recorded as long-term liabilities of $3.9 million for each year, representing the actuarial present value of the estimated benefits to be paid under the contract
