For certain administrative employees who are eligible for participation in the Plan, the Partnership makes a non-elective contribution of 2% of such employee’s annual compensation up to a maximum of one thousand six hundred dollars regardless of whether the employee makes any elective contributions to the Plan. In addition, the Partnership will also contribute 50% of certain eligible employee’s contribution to the Plan with a maximum matching contribution of one thousand six hundred dollars. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership incurred expenses of $1.7 million, $1.5 million and $1.4 million in connection with such Plan. The Partnership provides a defined contribution plan for eligible employees in the United Kingdom (“U.K. Plan”). All United Kingdom employees are eligible to contribute to the U.K. Plan after three months of qualifying service. The Partnership contributes a percentage of an employee’s annual salary, subject to United Kingdom statutory restrictions, on a monthly basis for administrative employees of the Partnership based upon the age of the employee. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership incurred expenses of $0.4 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in connection with the U.K. Plan.
