Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

We have a defined benefit retirement plan that covers substantially all domestic employees. This plan was frozen to new hires after January 15, 2011. We have frozen the pension benefits provided to our salaried pension plan participants. This means that: (i) salaried pension plan participants will not earn any additional years of benefit service under the plan after December 31, 2013 for purposes of accruing an additional plan benefit; and (ii) no pay increases/decreases that salaried pension plan participants earn after December 31, 2013 will be taken into account in determining their Plan benefit. Pension benefits covering salaried employees generally provide benefits that are based on average earnings and years of credited service. Pension benefits covering hourly employees generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service.
With regard to our retiree health care benefit plan, in the second quarter of 2012 we informed employees and current retirees that (1) effective May 1, 2012 we would no longer provide life insurance benefits to eligible current and future salaried retirees of the Company, (2) effective December 31, 2013, we would no longer provide pre-age 65 retiree group health care benefits to current salaried employees and current salaried retirees of the Company who could participate or who are currently participating in the Plan and (3) effective May 1, 2012, all current employees who have not satisfied the age and Company service requirements as of May 1, 2012, for eligibility and participation in the Plan providing pre-age 65 retiree group health care benefits, will no longer be eligible.
We use December 31 as the measurement date for determining pension and other postretirement benefits. Information regarding the funded status and net periodic benefit costs was reconciled to or stated as of the year ended December 31.
Amounts recognized for both pension and other postretirement benefit plans in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and in AOCI as of December 31 consist of:

The estimated net actuarial loss (gain) and prior service cost (credit) for the defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next twelve months are $0.9 million and ($0.2) million, respectively. Both the estimated net actuarial gain and prior service credit for the remaining other defined benefit postretirement plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next twelve months are not material.

The changes in benefit obligation due to the "Curtailments" of $3.8 million in 2013 are related to curtailment of our defined benefit retirement plan for the domestic salaried employees. The related balance was also reversed from AOCI.
The changes in benefit obligation due to the "Settlements" of $1.6 million in 2013 are related to some of our benefit plans in Europe and India, where the lump sum benefit payments exceeded the sum of service cost and interest cost, triggering settlement accounting.
The changes in benefit obligation due to "Reclassification adjustment" of $0.3 million in 2013 are related to reclassification of our postretirement benefit in Europe due to a continued review of our employee related plans. Previously the liabilities associated with this plan were recorded in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The changes in benefit obligation due to the "Plan amendments" of $3.5 million and "Settlements" of $0.9 million in 2012 are related to termination of our postretirement benefits in the second quarter of 2012. The related balance was also reversed from AOCI, resulting in a total non-cash gain of $45.0 million on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Due to the negative plan amendment, described in clause (2) of the second paragraph of this note above, we recorded increased amortization of net gains until December 31, 2013.
The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was $160.9 million and $177.4 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The expected long-term return on assets was determined for each class of assets in which the plan is invested based on consultation with the company's investment advisers. That information is combined with the target asset allocation, where applicable, to determine our best estimate of future returns.
Plan Assets
Our primary investment objectives are 1) preservation of principal, 2) minimizing the volatility of our assets and liabilities from changes in interest rates and market conditions, and 3) providing liquidity to meet benefit payments and expenses. Our portfolio primarily consists of fixed income obligations rated investment grade, (i.e., “Baa3/BBB” or better by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s), respectively, and international and domestic equities.

Defined Contribution Plan
We have a defined contribution retirement plan that covers substantially all domestic employees. The expense for this plan was $2.2 million, $2.4 million and $2.5 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Contributions were 100% funded from the proceeds obtained from the reversion of our former salaried pension plan.
