Net periodic benefit expense/(income) for our noncontributory postretirement health and welfare plan was predominantly included in SG&A expense in the unaudited Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the third quarter of 2014, we transferred $25 million of supplemental pension plan benefits, as allowed under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, out of one of our supplemental pension plans and into our Primary Pension Plan. The transfer did not have a significant impact on our unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
Defined Contribution Plans
Our defined contribution plans include a qualified Savings, Profit-Sharing and Stock Ownership Plan (401(k) plan), which includes a non-contributory retirement account, and a non-qualified contributory unfunded mirror savings plan offered to certain members of management. Total expense for our defined contribution plans for both of the third quarters of 2014 and 2013 was $12 million and was predominantly included in SG&A expenses in the unaudited Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total expense for the first nine months for both of 2014 and 2013 was $38 million.
