Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to a closed group of eligible employees. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company eliminated the previous group health insurance benefits for retirees 65 years of age and over, including elimination of pharmacy benefits for Medicare eligible retirees, and established a Health Reimbursement Account (“HRA”) for each eligible participant in that closed group. Funding of HRA accounts was $133 and $153 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The following table summarizes the components of the net periodic benefit for postretirement benefits other than pensions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.
