Defined Benefit Plans

The Company offers pension plans in certain jurisdictions, with the most significant in the U.K. In the U.K., the Company sponsors two defined benefit pension schemes (the “U.K. Retirement Plans”). The U.K. Retirement Plans do not allow for new plan participants or additional benefit accruals. The funded status of the U.K. Retirement Plans was recorded in Other long-term assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company considers its other defined benefit pension plans not material to its Consolidated Financial Statements and excludes them from the disclosure below.
