Employee Benefits
The Company has a retirement savings plan which qualifies under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k). All employees of the Company who have completed 1,000 hours of service and are at least 18 years of age are eligible to participate in the plan. During 2018, 2017 and 2016, the plan required the Company to match 100% of the first 3% of each employee’s elective deferrals and 50% of the next 2% of each employee’s elective deferrals. Effective January 1, 2019, the plan will require the Company to match 100% of the first 5% of each employee’s elective deferrals. During 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s matching contributions were made in the form of cash and vested immediately. The expenses incurred for Company contributions to the plan were approximately $7.3 million, $6.1 million and $5.2 million in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
The Company has established a 
non-qualified
 deferred compensation plan available for certain key employees. Under this self-funding plan, the participants may defer up to 40% of their base salary and up to 80% of their bonus compensation. The participants direct the investment of their deferred compensation within several investment funds. The Company is not required to contribute and did not contribute to this plan during 2018, 2017 or 2016.

Under the ESPDP, eligible employees may deduct up to 15% of their eligible wages to purchase common stock at 85% of the market price of the stock at the purchase date.

There were 19,494 shares, 21,744 shares and 23,317 shares of common stock in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, purchased on the open market for participating employees at a weighted-average price of $249.57 in 2018, $188.57 in 2017 and $131.74 in 2016.
