Employee Benefit Plans	14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Deferred Compensation Plans As of December 31, 2021 the Company had various deferred compensation plans, which included a deferred compensation plan for its former President and Chief Executive Officer, Christopher D. Myers, and severance arrangements it assumed through the acquisition of other banks in prior years. We also offer a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for our executives and key members of management in order to assist us in attracting and retaining these individuals. Participants in the plan may elect to defer a portion of their annual salary and/or short-term incentive payouts into deferral accounts to provide a means by which they may elect to defer receipt of compensation in order to provide retirement benefits. The plan is intended to be unfunded and allows us to make discretionary contributions on behalf of a participant. No discretionary payments were made by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The Bank, however, does fund the cost of these plans through the purchase of bank owned life insurance policies, which are reflected as assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the total deferred compensation liability was $20.9 million and $21.6 million, respectively. Total expense for these deferred compensation agreements was approximately $1.4 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan The Bank sponsors a 401(k) and profit-sharing plan for the benefit of its employees. Employees are eligible to participate in the plan immediately upon hire. Employees may make contributions to the plan under the plan’s 401(k) component. The Bank contributes 3%, non-matching, to the plan to comply with ERISA’s safe harbor provisions. The Bank may make additional contributions under the plan’s profit-sharing component, subject to certain limitations, which was 3% for 2021, and 2% for both 2020 and 2019. The Bank’s total contributions are determined by the Board of Directors and amounted to approximately $5.0 million for 2021, $4.3 million for 2020, and $4.1 million for 2019.
