11) Retirement Plans | 11) Retirement Plans The Company and its subsidiaries have a noncontributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) for all eligible employees. Eligible employees are primarily those with more than one year of service, who work in excess of 1,000 hours per year. Contributions, which may be in cash or stock of the Company, are determined annually by the Board of Directors. The Company’s contributions are allocated to eligible employees based on the ratio of each eligible employee’s compensation to total compensation for all eligible employees during each year. The Company did not make any contributions for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. At December 31, 2018, the ESOP held 472,017 shares of Class A and 292,849 shares of Class C common stock of the Company. All shares held by the ESOP have been allocated to the participating employees and all shares held by the ESOP are considered outstanding for purposes of computing earnings per share. The Company has three 401(k) savings plans covering all eligible employees, as defined above, which includes employer participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plans allow participants to make pretax contributions up to a maximum of $18,500 and $18,000 for the years 2018 and 2017, respectively or the statutory limits. Beginning January 1, 2008, the Company elected to be a “Safe Harbor” Plan for its matching 401(k) contributions. The Company matched 100% of up to 3% of an employee’s total annual compensation and matched 50% of 4% to 5% of an employee’s annual compensation. The match was in Company stock. The Company’s contribution for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $1,480,913 and $1,534,861, respectively under the “Safe Harbor” plan. In 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, and this plan was amended in 2005. Under the terms of the Plan, the Company will provide deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The Board has appointed a Committee of the Company to be the Plan Administrator and to determine the employees who are eligible to participate in the plan. The employees who participate may elect to defer a portion of their compensation into the plan. The Company may contribute into the plan at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company did not make any contributions for 2018 and 2017. On December 4, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Scott M. Quist, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The agreement was for a six-year term beginning on December 4, 2012 and ending on December 4, 2018. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, extend the term of the agreement for an additional four-year term provided that Mr. Quist has continued to perform his duties with usual and customary care, diligence and prudence commensurate with his position with the Company. In addition, Mr. Quist is required to perform such additional duties as may be assigned to him from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. Effective December 4, 2018, the Board members approved a motion to extend Mr. Quist’s employment agreement for an additional four-year term ending December 2022. Mr. Quist abstained from voting on the motion to extend his employment agreement for the additional four-year term. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Quist is to devote his full time to the Company, serving as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer at not less than his current salary and benefits. The Company also agrees to maintain a group term life insurance policy of not less than $1,000,000 and a whole life insurance policy in the amount of $500,000 on Mr. Quist’s life. In the event of disability, Mr. Quist’s salary would be continued for up to five years at 75% of its current level of compensation. In the event of a sale or merger of the Company and Mr. Quist is not retained in his current position, the Company would be obligated to continue paying Mr. Quist’s current compensation and benefits for seven years following the merger or sale. The agreement further provides that Mr. Quist is entitled to receive annual retirement benefits beginning (i) one month from the date of his retirement (to commence no sooner than age 65), (ii) five years following complete disability, or (iii) upon termination of his employment without cause. These retirement benefits are to be paid for a period of twenty years in annual installments in the amount equal to 75% of his then current level of compensation. In the event that Mr. Quist dies prior to receiving all retirement benefits thereunder, the remaining benefits are to be paid to his heirs. The Company expensed $660,000 and $755,302 during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to cover the present value of anticipated retirement benefits under the employment agreement. The liability accrued was $5,191,670 and $4,531,670 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. On December 31, 2015, J. Lynn Beckstead, Jr., who served as Vice President of Mortgage Operations and President of SecurityNational Mortgage, retired from the Company. Under the terms of the employment agreement that the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SecurityNational Mortgage, had entered into with Mr. Beckstead, Mr. Beckstead is entitled to receive retirement benefits from the Company for a period of ten years in an amount equal to 50% of his rate of compensation at the time of his retirement, which was $267,685 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Such retirement payments are paid monthly during the ten-year period. In determining Mr. Beckstead’s current rate of compensation, stock option grants and incentive or similar bonuses are not included. In the event Mr. Beckstead dies prior to receiving all of his retirement benefits under his employment agreement, the remaining benefits will be made to his heirs. The company paid $133,843 and $133,843 in retirement compensation to Mr. Beckstead during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The liability accrued was $841,591 and $975,434 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively and is included in Other liabilities and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.
