Retirement Plans

We have an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain officers, key members of management and our non-employee directors.  Subject to certain vesting requirements, the plan provides for retirement benefits based on the average of the final thirty-six months of base salary.  Such benefits become payable upon attaining age sixty-five, or upon retirement, if later.  The benefits are paid biweekly and continue for the retiree’s remaining life or for a minimum of ten years. The plan was closed to new participants effective February 3, 2011.

For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 2013, payments to retirees or their beneficiaries totaled approximately $973,000.  We presently anticipate benefit payments in 2013 to total approximately $1.3 million.  The following table summarizes the components of net periodic pension cost for the first three quarters of 2013 and 2012.
