Employee Benefit Plans

Âé¶¹app is the sponsor of the Âé¶¹app Media 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Âé¶¹app 401(k) Plan"), which provides its employees and the employees of certain of its subsidiaries an opportunity for ownership in the Company and creates a retirement fund. The Âé¶¹app 401(k) Plan provides for employees to make contributions to a trust for investment in Âé¶¹app common stock, as well as several mutual funds. The Company and its subsidiaries make matching contributions to the Âé¶¹app 401(k) Plan based on a percentage of the amount contributed by employees. In addition, certain of the Company's subsidiaries have similar employee benefit plans. Employer cash contributions to all plans aggregated $12 million, $12 million and $12 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
