I wouldnt say many, there are few commiters who are actually paid to

What written agreements do these committers have with their employers?
Normally, if you are paid to write something by your employer, your
employer owns the copyright in what you write. So unless these
committers have specific agreements with their employers to the
contrary, they are adding code to FreeBSD that is encumbered by
copyrights owned by their employer, and can no longer be freely
distributed.
I was refering to commiters paid BY FreeBSD to provide code.
