OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFITS | OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFITS 401(k) Plan The Company sponsors the BioMarin Retirement Savings Plan (the 401(k) Plan) for eligible U.S. employees. The Company pays the direct expenses of the 401(k) Plan and matches 100% of each participating employee’s eligible contributions, up to a maximum of the lesser of 6% of the employee’s annual compensation or the annual statutory contribution limit. The Company’s matching contribution vests immediately and was approximately $31.6 million, $26.4 million and $28.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Deferred Compensation Plan The Company maintains the NQDC under which eligible directors and key employee may defer compensation. The NQDC prohibits the diversification of deferrals of Company stock. Company stock issued and held by the NQDC is accounted for similarly to treasury stock in that the fair value of the employer stock was determined on the grant date and the shares are issued into the NQDC when the restricted stock vests. The corresponding deferred compensation obligation is classified as equity with no changes in the fair value of Company stock held in the NQDC recognized in earnings. Other contributions held in the NQDC are classified as trading securities, recorded at fair value with the corresponding deferred compensation obligation classified as a liability and subsequent changes in the fair value of these non-BioMarin investments are recognized in earnings in the period they occur. See Note 10 to these Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion on the fair value and presentation of the NQDC assets and liabilities.
