Effective January 1, 1991 we adopted a deferred compensation savings plan for certain key employees. Under this arrangement, selected employees contribute a portion of their annual compensation to the plan. We contribute an amount to each participant’s account by computing an investment return equal to Moody’s Average Seasoned Bond Rate plus 2%. Employees receive vested amounts upon death, termination or attainment of retirement age. No benefit expense was recorded under these plans for fiscal years 2011 and 2010.

In fiscal year 1991, we adopted a non-qualified supplemental retirement plan for certain key employees.  Benefits provided under the plan are equal to 60% of the employee’s final average earnings, less amounts provided by our defined benefit pension plan and amounts available through Social Security.

Benefits payable related to these plans and included in the accompanying financial statements were $4,166 and $3,982 at October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2010, respectively. In connection with this arrangement we are the beneficiary of life insurance policies on the lives of certain key employees and retirees. The aggregate cash surrender value of these policies, included in non-current assets, was $11,615 and $11,134 at October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2010, respectively.

Expected payments for executive postretirement benefits are as follows:

We provide an incentive compensation plan for certain key executives, which is based upon our pretax income. The payment of these amounts is generally deferred over three or five-year periods. The total amount payable related to this arrangement was $1,561 and $2,447 at October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2010, respectively. Future payments are approximately $878, $473, $115, $68 and $27 for fiscal years 2012 through 2016, respectively.
