Non—U.S. Benefit Plans

 

Most employees outside the U.S. are covered by local
retirement plans or by applicable social laws. Benefits under social laws are generally expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. These costs are included in compensation and benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

As part of the Nord Pool transaction, we assumed the
obligation for several pension plans providing benefits for their employees. Employees covered under these pension plans are entitled to defined future pension benefits based on the number of years of employment and pay at retirement age. The
measurement date of the plan obligations is December 31. At December 31, 2008, the projected benefit obligation was $8.9 million and the fair value of the plan assets were $3.9 million. The under funded status of the plans were $5.0
million. This was included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

SIZE="2">Defined Contribution Savings Plan

 

We sponsor
a voluntary defined contribution savings plan, or 401(k) Plan, for U.S. employees. Employees are immediately eligible to make contributions to the plan and are also eligible for an employer contribution match at an amount equal to 100.0% of the
first 4.0% of eligible employee contributions. Savings plan expense included in compensation and benefits expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income was $3.8 million in 2008 and $3.2 million in both 2007 and 2006.

STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"> 

PHLX also sponsored a voluntary defined contribution 401(k) plan for former
PHLX employees. This plan was merged into our 401(k) Plan effective January 1, 2009.

 

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We also added a profit-sharing contribution feature to our 401(k) plan on July 1, 2007. Eligible U.S. employees receive employer retirement contributions, or ERCs, when we meet our annual corporate goals. In
addition, we adopted a supplemental ERC for select highly compensated employees whose ERCs are limited by the annual Internal Revenue Service compensation limit. Included in compensation and benefits expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income
was ERC expense of $4.0 million in 2008 and $3.3 million in 2007. Former active PHLX employees are also eligible to receive ERCs in 2008.
