Deferred Compensation Plans

Effective January 1, 2016, the Company established a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for executive officers, directors and certain eligible employees. The assets of the deferred compensation plan are held in a rabbi trust and are subject to additional risk of loss in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. The plan allows for deferral up to 90% of a participant’s base salary, bonus, commissions, director fees and restricted stock awards. A Company owned life insurance policy held in a rabbi trust is utilized as a source of funding for the plan. The cash surrender value of the life insurance policy is $894,000 and $207,000 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, with a gain related to the policy of $66,400 and $13,900 reported in other income in our consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

For deferrals of base salary, bonus, commissions and director fees, settlement payments are made to participants in cash, either in a lump sum or in periodic installments. The deferred obligation to pay the deferred compensation and the deferred director fees is adjusted to reflect the positive or negative performance of investment measurement options selected by each participant and was $866,000 and $208,000 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The deferred obligation is included in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

For deferrals of restricted stock, the plan does not allow for diversification, therefore, distributions are paid in shares and the obligation is carried at grant value. As of December 31, 2017, a total of $97,011 unvested restricted stock units have been deferred.
