16. Employee Benefit Programs

        Employee Deferred Compensation Plan—In 2003, the Company adopted a deferred compensation plan that permits key employees and other members of management not eligible to participate in the Employee Defined Contribution Plan to defer portions of their compensation. The Company pays all administrative expenses of the plan. Under this plan, eligible team members may elect to defer up to 75% of their base salary and up to 100% of variable compensation and commissions each plan year. At the end of fiscal 2012 and 2011, a liability for participant contributions and investment income thereon of $3.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, is included in other non-current liabilities. To offset its obligation, the Company's plan administrator purchases Company-owned whole-life insurance contracts on certain team members. The cash surrender value of these policies at the end of fiscal years 2012 and 2011, of $2.9 million and $2.5 million, respectively, is included in other assets, net.

        Employee Stock Purchase Plan—In 2002, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under which eligible team members may voluntarily contribute up to 15% of their salary, subject to limitations, to purchase common stock at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the first day of each offering period or 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the last day of each offering period, whichever amount is less. In general, all of the Company's officers and team members who have been employed by the Company for at least one year and who are regularly scheduled to work more than twenty hours per week are eligible to participate in this plan which operates in successive six-month periods commencing on each January 1 and July 1 of each fiscal year. A total of 300,000 shares of common stock are available for issuance under this plan. The Company has issued a total of 206,674 shares under this plan, including 24,786 shares that were issued in 2012. A total of 93,326 shares remain available for future issuance. For 2012, in accordance with the guidance for accounting for stock compensation, the Company estimated the fair value of the stock purchase plan using the Black-Scholes multiple-option pricing model. The average assumptions used in the model included a 0.17% risk-free interest rate; 0.5 year expected life; expected volatility of 48.45%; and a 0% dividend yield. The weighted average fair value per share at grant date was $7.77. For the fiscal year 2011, the average assumptions used in the model included a 0.18% risk-free interest rate; 0.5 year expected life; expected volatility of 60.4%; and a 0% dividend yield. The weighted average fair value per share at grant date was $5.28. In 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to this plan.

        Employee Defined Contribution Plan—The Company maintains a 401(k) Savings Plan ("401K Plan") which covers eligible team members who have satisfied the service requirements and reached 21 years of age. The 401K Plan, which qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, allows team members to defer specified percentages of their compensation on a pre-tax basis. The Company may make matching contributions in an amount determined by the board of directors. In addition, the Company may contribute each period, at its discretion, an additional amount from profits. In 2006, the board of directors authorized matching contributions equal to 25% of the first 4% of compensation that is deferred by the participant. The Company recognized matching contribution expense of $0.3 million in both fiscal years 2012 and 2011.
