| Employee retirement plans | 14. Employee retirement plans The Company, in compliance with Swiss Law, is contracted with the AXA Leben AG, or AXA, for the provision of pension benefits in a defined benefit plan. All benefits are organized in a semi-autonomous collective foundation within the framework of the contract with AXA. Insurance benefits due are paid directly to the entitled persons by AXA in the name of and for the account of the collective foundation. The pension plan is financed by contributions of both employees and the Company. The contract between the Company and the collective foundation can be terminated by either side. In the event of a termination, the Company would have an obligation to find alternative pension arrangements for its employees. Because there is no guarantee that the employee pension arrangements would be continued under the same conditions, there is a risk, albeit remote, that a pension obligation may fall on the Company. The pension assets are pooled for all affiliated companies; the investment of assets is done by the governing bodies of the collective foundation. The following table summarizes pension expense incurred (in thousands):
In February 2021, the Company adopted a defined contribution plan intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering all eligible U.S. based employees of the Company. All employees are eligible to become participants of the plan immediately upon hire. Each active employee may elect, voluntarily, to contribute a percentage of their compensation to the plan each year, subject to certain limitations. The Company reserves the right, but is not obligated, to make additional contributions to this plan. The Company makes safe-harbor match contributions of 100% of the first 4% of each participant’s eligible compensation. In January 2024, the Company adopted a defined contribution supplemental pension plan for eligible Swiss based employees defined by Swiss Law Art.1e BVV 2, or the 1e Plan. Employees earning above a defined threshold are eligible and automatically enrolled in the 1e Plan and required contributions are determined by age and salary under Swiss Law. The Company and the employee share the costs of the 1e Plan. The following table summarizes defined contribution expenses incurred (in thousands):
