These participant contributions are made on a pre-tax basis. The Company also offers employees the option to make Roth contributions. The Roth contributions made by the employee are included in the employees' income at the time deferred and are segregated with a separate Roth account within the Plan. The Roth contributions, together with the participants' pre-tax contributions, are subject to the limitations above. Additionally, participants who attained the age of 50 could contribute an additional $7,500 of catch-up contributions in both 2025 and 2024.

Standards Board's (FASB) guidance for fair value measurements. Under this guidance, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the Plan uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value. For accounting disclosure purposes, a three-level valuation hierarchy of fair value measurements has been established. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: </span></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. </span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly (such as interest rates, yield curves, and prepayment speeds). </span></div><div style="padding-left:72pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">•</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:14.5pt">Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, the Plan looks to market observable data for similar assets and liabilities.

Fund from Level 1 to Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. This change in presentation had no impact on the total value of investments or the Plan's net assets available for benefits. Prior period activity has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.(2) In accordance with Subtopic ASC 820-10, investments that were measured at net asset value have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts represented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the line items presented in the statement of net assets available for benefits. (1) Plan-level redemptions are subject to notice and potential liquidity restrictions, which could extend the redemption for all or a portion of the investment for up to 12 months.
