NOTE 7. RETIREMENT PLANS AND OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which is a nonqualified plan that provides certain executives with a supplemental benefit upon retirement. The plan provides an annual 8% contribution based on a participant's base salary and cash bonus. The projected benefit obligation under the SERP was $1.3 million and $1.6 million at June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, respectively. The Company holds assets in a Rabbi Trust related to this retirement obligation. The Rabbi Trust assets do not qualify as plan assets. The assets had a value of $1.3 million at June 28, 2026 and $1.6 million at June 29, 2025.

Postretirement Health and Postretirement Life Plans

The Company also sponsors a postretirement health care plan for eligible U.S. retirees hired prior to June 1, 2001. The expected cost of retiree health care benefits is recognized during the years employees render service. The postretirement health care plan is unfunded. The projected benefit obligation for this plan was $0.3 million at June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025. Additionally, the Company sponsors a postretirement life insurance plan for U.S. salaried employees who retired prior to October 1, 2001 and U.S. hourly employees who were hired prior to June 27, 2005 and retired prior to January 1, 2010. The postretirement life plan is unfunded. The projected benefit obligation for this plan was $0.8 million at June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025.

Mexico Post-employment Benefits

The Company is obligated to pay seniority premiums and termination indemnities at the time of separation of an employee in our Mexico operations (collectively, "Mexico post-employment benefits"), in accordance with Mexican Federal Labor Laws. The benefit formula is based on an employee's seniority, age and salary. The following tables summarize the Mexico post-employment benefits net periodic benefit cost (credit), and actuarial assumptions (in thousands):
