Employee Benefit Plans	10. Employee Benefit Plans The Company provides a 401(k) plan as part of its employee benefits package in order to retain quality personnel. Legacy Dawson elected to match 100% of the employee contributions up to a maximum of 6% of the participant's gross salary under the Legacy Dawson 401(k) plan for the year ended December 31, 2015, the three months ended December 31, 2014, and the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. Legacy Dawson's 401(k) plan was retained in connection with the merger. Legacy TGC's 401(k) plan, which was terminated in connection with the Merger, is consistent with Legacy Dawson's 401(k) plan except Legacy TGC matched 50% of the employee's contribution up to a maximum of 6% of the participant's gross salary. The Company's matching contributions under Legacy Dawson's 401(k) plan for calendar year 2015, three months ended December 31, 2014, and fiscal 2014 and 2013 were approximately $1,849,000, $462,000, $1,895,000 and $1,747,000, respectively. Legacy TGC's employees rolled on to the Legacy Dawson 401(k) plan during 2015. In addition, the Company's matching contributions to the Legacy TGC 401(k) plan (prior to such plan's termination) during 2015 were $98,000.
