Newell Rubbermaid Inc. 2008 Annual Report
59
The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which is a nonqualified defined benefit plan pursuant to which the Company
will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain key employees upon retirement based upon the employees’ years of service and compensation. The SERP
is partially funded through a trust agreement with the Northern Trust Company, as trustee, that owns life insurance policies on key employees. At December 31,
2008 and 2007, the life insurance contracts had a cash surrender value of $82.8 million and $78.8 million, respectively. The SERP is also partially funded
through cash and mutual fund investments, which had a combined value of $19.7 million and $22.5 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
These assets, as well as the cash surrender value of the life insurance contracts, are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
projected benefit obligation was $94.1 million and $85.1 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The SERP liabilities are included in the
pension table below; however, the Companys investment in the life insurance contracts is excluded from the table as they do not qualify as plan assets
under SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions.
The Company’s matching contributions to the contributory 401(k) plan were $15.9 million, $15.6 million, and $15.9 million for the years ended
December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The following provides a reconciliation of benefit obligations, plan assets and funded status of the Companys noncontributory defined benefit
pension plans, including the SERP, as of December 31, (in millions, except percentages):
