21. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION BENEFIT PLANS
Prior to the Company's spin-off, former Parent administered and maintained defined contribution savings plans and a deferred compensation plan that provided eligible employees of Wyndham Hotels an opportunity to accumulate funds for retirement. Former Parent matched the contributions of participating employees on the basis specified by each plan. Wyndham Hotels’ cost for these plans was $2 million during 2018.
Subsequent to the Company's spin-off, Wyndham Hotels administers and maintains its own defined contribution savings plans and deferred compensation plan. The Company’s cost for these plans was $10 million, $10 million and $4 million during 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
