Note 11. Employee Benefit Plans

 

401(k) plan:

 

Cornerstone has a 401(k) employee benefit plan covering substantially all employees that have completed at least 30 days of service and met minimum age requirements. Cornerstone’s contribution to the plan is discretionary. Cornerstone elected not to make a contribution to the plan for 2011, 2010 or 2009.

 

Employee Stock Ownership Plan:

 

Cornerstone has a non-leveraged employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) to which Cornerstone makes 100% of the contributions for purchasing Cornerstone’s common stock, and allocates the contributions among the participants based on regulatory guidelines. Cornerstone’s contribution is discretionary, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Employer contributions are available to all employees after 1,000 hours of service. There are certain age and years-of-service requirements before contributions can be made for the benefit of the employee. The ESOP plan also provides for a three year 100% vesting requirement; therefore, employees terminating employment before their third anniversary date will forfeit their accrued benefit under the ESOP. The forfeiture will be re-allocated among the remaining ESOP participants. No contributions were made to the ESOP in 2011, 2010 or 2009.
