Employee Benefits | EMPLOYEE BENEFITS 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan - The Bank has established a 401(k) and profit sharing plan. The 401(k) plan covers substantially all employees who have completed a one-month employment period. Participants in the profit sharing plan are eligible to receive employer contributions after completion of 2 years of service. Bank contributions to the profit sharing plan are determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Participants are automatically vested 100% in all employer contributions. There was no contribution by the Bank to the profit sharing plan in 2014. The Bank contributed $225,000 and $210,000 to the profit sharing plan in 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, the Bank may elect to make a matching contribution to the participants’ 401(k) plan accounts. The amount to be contributed is announced by the Bank at the beginning of the plan year. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Bank made a 100% matching contribution on all deferred amounts up to 3% of eligible compensation and a 50% matching contribution on all deferred amounts above 3% to a maximum of 5%. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Bank made matching contributions totaling $499,000, $382,000, and $388,000, respectively. Deferred Compensation Plan - The Bank has a nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan which provides directors with an unfunded, deferred compensation program. Under the plan, eligible participants may elect to defer some or all of their current compensation or director fees. Deferred amounts earn interest at an annual rate determined by the Board of Directors (3.92% at December 31, 2014). At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the total net deferrals included in accrued interest payable and other liabilities were $3,154,000 and $2,976,000, respectively. In connection with the implementation of the above plan, single premium universal life insurance policies on the life of each participant were purchased by the Bank, which is the beneficiary and owner of the policies.
