Answers

What is the overall deductible?

For In-Network $5,000 Individual/$10,000 Family For Out-of-Network $10,000 Individual/$20,000 Family

Are there services covered before you meet your deductible?

Yes. Certain preventive care is covered before you meet your deductible.

Are there other deductibles for specific services?

No.

What is the out-ofpocket limit for this plan? What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit?

Will you pay less if you use a network provider?

For In-Network $5,000 Individual/$10,000 Family For Out-of-Network $20,000 Individual/$40,000 Family Premiums, balance-billed charges, preauthorization penalties, and health care this plan doesn’t cover. Yes. See www.bcbstx.com or call 1-800-810-2583 for a list of network providers.

Do you need a referral to No. see a specialist?

Why This Matters: Generally, you must pay all of the costs from providers up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay. If you have other family members on the plan, each family member must meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all family members meets the overall family deductible. This plan covers some items and services even if you haven’t yet met the deductible amount. But a copayment or coinsurance may apply. For example, this plan covers certain preventive services without cost sharing and before you meet your deductible. See a list of covered preventive services at www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/. You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services. The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a year for covered services. If you have other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own outof-pocket limits until the overall family out-of-pocket limit has been met. Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit. This plan uses a provider network. You will pay less if you use a provider in the plan’s network. You will pay the most if you use an Out-of-Network provider, and you might receive a bill from a provider for the difference between the provider’s charge and what your plan pays (balance billing). Be aware, your network provider might use an Out-of-Network provider for some services (such as lab work). Check with your provider before you get services. You can see the specialist you choose without a referral.

Common Questions … Important Answers Who is a participating dentist? A participating, or network, dentist is a general dentist or specialist who has agreed to accept negotiated fees as payment in full for covered services provided to plan members, subject to any deductibles, copayments, cost sharing and benefit maximums. Negotiated fees typically range from 15-45% below the average fees charged in a dentist’s community for the same or substantially similar services.* In addition to the standard MetLife network, your employer may provide you with access to a select network of dental providers that may be unique to your employer’s dental program. When visiting these providers, you may receive a better benefit, have lower out-of-pocket costs and/or have access to care at facilities at your worksite. Please sign into MyBenefits for more details. * Based on internal analysis by MetLife. Savings from enrolling in a dental benefits plan will depend on various factors, including the cost of the plan, how often members visit participating dentists and the cost of services rendered. Negotiated fees are subject to change.

How do I find a participating dentist? There are thousands of general dentists and specialists to choose from nationwide --so you are sure to find one that meets your needs. You can receive a list of these participating dentists online at www.metlife.com/dental or call 1-800-275-4638 to have a list faxed or mailed to you.

What services are covered by my plan? All services defined under your group dental benefits plan are covered. Please review the enclosed plan benefits summary to learn more.* *The information in this document represents an overview of your plan benefits, but is not a complete description of the plan. Before making any purchase or enrollment decision you should review the certificate of insurance which is available through MetLife or your employer. In the event of a conflict between this overview and your certificate of insurance, your certificate of insurance governs.

May I choose a non-participating dentist? Yes. You are always free to select the dentist of your choice. However, if you choose a non-participating (out-of-network) dentist, your out-of-pocket costs may be higher.

Can my dentist apply for participation in the network? Yes. If your current dentist does not participate in the network and you would like to encourage him or her to apply, ask your dentist to visit www.metdental.com, or call 1-866-PDP-NTWK for an application.* The website and phone number are for use by dental professionals only. * Due to contractual requirements, MetLife is prevented from soliciting certain providers.

How are claims processed? Dentists may submit your claims for you which means you have little or no paperwork. You can track your claims online and even receive email alerts when a claim has been processed. If you need a claim form, visit www.metlife.com/dental or request one by calling 1-800-275-4638.

Can I get an estimate of what my out-of-pocket expenses will be before receiving a service? Yes. You can ask for a pretreatment estimate. Your general dentist or specialist usually sends MetLife a plan for your care and requests an estimate of benefits. The estimate helps you prepare for the cost of dental services. We recommend that you request a pre-treatment estimate for services in excess of $300. Simply have your dentist submit a request online at www.metdental.com or call 1-877-MET-DDS9. You and your dentist will receive a benefit estimate for most procedures while you are still in the office. Actual payments may vary depending upon plan maximums, deductibles, frequency limits and other conditions at time of payment.

Can MetLife help me find a dentist outside of the U.S. if I am traveling? Yes. Through international dental travel assistance services* you can obtain a referral to a local dentist by calling +1-312-356-5970 (collect) when outside the U.S. to receive immediate care until you can see your dentist. Coverage will be considered under your out-of-network benefits.** Please remember to hold on to all receipts to submit a dental claim. *International Dental Travel Assistance services are administered by AXA Assistance USA, Inc. (AXA Assistance). AXA Assistance provides dental referral services only. AXA Assistance is not affiliated with MetLife and any of its affiliates, and the services they provide are separate and apart from the benefits provided by MetLife. Referral services are not available in all locations. ** Refer to your dental benefits plan summary for your out-of-network dental coverage.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS L0916478823[exp0218][All States] :: 49


How does MetLife coordinate benefits with other insurance plans? Coordination of benefits provisions in dental benefits plans are a set of rules that are followed when a patient is covered by more than one dental benefits plan. These rules determine the order in which the plans will pay benefits. If the MetLife dental benefit plan is primary, MetLife will pay the full amount of benefits that would normally be available under the plan. If the MetLife dental benefit plan is secondary, most coordination of benefits provisions requires MetLife to determine benefits after benefits have been determined under the primary plan. The amount of benefits payable by MetLife may be reduced due to the benefits paid under the primary plan.

Do I need an ID card? No, You do not need to present an ID card to confirm that you are eligible. You should notify your dentist that you are enrolled in a MetLife Dental Plan. Your dentist can easily verify information about your coverage through a toll-free automated Computer Voice Response system.

Do my dependents have to visit the same dentist that I select? No. You and your dependents each have the freedom to choose any dentist.

For your plan, the Customary Charge is based on the 90th percentile. Services must be necessary in terms of generally accepted dental standards.

Common Questions … Important Answers Who is a participating dentist? A participating, or network, dentist is a general dentist or specialist who has agreed to accept negotiated fees as payment in full for covered services provided to plan members, subject to any deductibles, copayments, cost sharing and benefit maximums. Negotiated fees typically range from 15-45% below the average fees charged in a dentist’s community for the same or substantially similar services.* In addition to the standard MetLife network, your employer may provide you with access to a select network of dental providers that may be unique to your employer’s dental program. When visiting these providers, you may receive a better benefit, have lower out-of-pocket costs and/or have access to care at facilities at your worksite. Please sign into MyBenefits for more details. * Based on internal analysis by MetLife. Savings from enrolling in a dental benefits plan will depend on various factors, including the cost of the plan, how often members visit participating dentists and the cost of services rendered. Negotiated fees are subject to change.

How do I find a participating dentist? There are thousands of general dentists and specialists to choose from nationwide --so you are sure to find one that meets your needs. You can receive a list of these participating dentists online at www.metlife.com/dental or call 1-800-275-4638 to have a list faxed or mailed to you.

What services are covered by my plan? All services defined under your group dental benefits plan are covered. Please review the enclosed plan benefits summary to learn more.* *The information in this document represents an overview of your plan benefits, but is not a complete description of the plan. Before making any purchase or enrollment decision you should review the certificate of insurance which is available through MetLife or your employer. In the event of a conflict between this overview and your certificate of insurance, your certificate of insurance governs.

May I choose a non-participating dentist? Yes. You are always free to select the dentist of your choice. However, if you choose a non-participating (out-of-network) dentist, your out-of-pocket costs may be higher.

Can my dentist apply for participation in the network? Yes. If your current dentist does not participate in the network and you would like to encourage him or her to apply, ask your dentist to visit www.metdental.com, or call 1-866-PDP-NTWK for an application.* The website and phone number are for use by dental professionals only. * Due to contractual requirements, MetLife is prevented from soliciting certain providers.

How are claims processed? Dentists may submit your claims for you which means you have little or no paperwork. You can track your claims online and even receive email alerts when a claim has been processed. If you need a claim form, visit www.metlife.com/dental or request one by calling 1-800-275-4638.

Can I get an estimate of what my out-of-pocket expenses will be before receiving a service? Yes. You can ask for a pretreatment estimate. Your general dentist or specialist usually sends MetLife a plan for your care and requests an estimate of benefits. The estimate helps you prepare for the cost of dental services. We recommend that you request a pre-treatment estimate for services in excess of $300. Simply have your dentist submit a request online at www.metdental.com or call 1-877-MET-DDS9. You and your dentist will receive a benefit estimate for most procedures while you are still in the office. Actual payments may vary depending upon plan maximums, deductibles, frequency limits and other conditions at time of payment.

Can MetLife help me find a dentist outside of the U.S. if I am traveling? Yes. Through international dental travel assistance services* you can obtain a referral to a local dentist by calling +1-312-356-5970 (collect) when outside the U.S. to receive immediate care until you can see your dentist. Coverage will be considered under your out-of-network benefits.** Please remember to hold on to all receipts to submit a dental claim. *International Dental Travel Assistance services are administered by AXA Assistance USA, Inc. (AXA Assistance). AXA Assistance provides dental referral services only. AXA Assistance is not affiliated with MetLife and any of its affiliates, and the services they provide are separate and apart from the benefits provided by MetLife. Referral services are not available in all locations. ** Refer to your dental benefits plan summary for your out-of-network dental coverage.

How does MetLife coordinate benefits with other insurance plans? Coordination of benefits provisions in dental benefits plans are a set of rules that are followed when a patient is covered by more than one dental benefits plan. These rules determine the order in which the plans will pay benefits. If the MetLife dental benefit plan is primary, MetLife will pay the full amount of benefits that would normally be available under the plan. If the MetLife dental benefit plan is secondary, most coordination of benefits provisions requires MetLife to determine benefits after benefits have been determined under the primary plan. The amount of benefits payable by MetLife may be reduced due to the benefits paid under the primary plan.

Do I need an ID card? No, You do not need to present an ID card to confirm that you are eligible. You should notify your dentist that you are enrolled in a MetLife Dental Plan. Your dentist can easily verify information about your coverage through a toll-free automated Computer Voice Response system.

Do my dependents have to visit the same dentist that I select? No. You and your dependents each have the freedom to choose any dentist.

Aspen Heights Summary of Benefits Short-Term Disability Insurance

Group disability insurance offers income protection Disability is often called the “forgotten risk,” as few employees think about how they would survive financially with no earned income. The impact of a disabling illness or injury, both financially and emotionally, is devastating. While health insurance may cover most medical bills, daily living expenses such as rent or mortgage, car payments, and utilities continue. Short-term disability insurance provides partial income replacement if you are unable to work due to a qualifying non-occupational illness or injury for periods ranging from a few days to several weeks.

Eligibility

All full-time employees working a minimum of 30 regularly scheduled hours per week.

Waiting Period

You are eligible on the first of the month coincident with or next following date of hire.

Benefit

STD coverage is employer-paid. If you become disabled (as defined in the plan) and remain disabled through the elimination period, the plan benefit pays 60% of your weekly earnings, less other deductible sources of income, such as statemandated benefits and sick pay (see your plan booklet for details). The maximum weekly benefit is $2,000.

Elimination Period

Benefits are payable after a period of fourteen calendar days due to injury or sickness.

Maximum Duration

Short-term disability benefits will end at either the end of the disability or the end of the 13th week of disability, whichever comes first.

Definition of Disability

You will be considered disabled if you are unable to perform the duties of your “own job.” Refer to your certificate of coverage for definitions of “own job” and “any job.”

Partial Disability Benefits

Partial disability benefits can be payable if your earnings are between 20% and 80% of your pre-disability earnings.

Successive Disability

If you become disabled for the same condition within 14 days following your prior disability, your benefits will continue under the same claim.

Please Note: Taxability will vary based on election and employer and employee contributions. Pre-existing condition exclusions may affect the payment of benefits. Please see your Human Resources department or Benefits department for additional information.

Aspen Heights 401k Information I have attached information regarding our 401k program (both traditional and ROTH are available). You will be eligible to contribute on the first day of your 7th month with Aspen Heights. To see your account in ADP (https://workforcenow.adp.com), go to Myself > Benefits > Retirement Savings. Important Information:  Aspen’s employer match for 401k is up to 50% of the first 6 % you put in. To get the full 3% employer match you need to elect at least 6% via payroll deduction. The election can be over any combination of a regular and/or Roth 401k but the employer match will be deposited into a regular 401k account (not a Roth account). Example: you can elect 5% to your Roth IRA and 1% to your regular IRA and that will total the needed 6% to get the full 3% match.  On your 1 year anniversary of starting with Aspen Heights you will be 50% vested in your employer match and on your 2nd anniversary of starting with Aspen Heights you will be 100% vested in your employer match. Being vested means that you can take that portion of the employer match with you if you were to leave our company. You are always 100% vested in the money you contribute, but you have to wait until your vesting dates to get that amount of the employer match. Here is more information on what “vesting” means http://money.cnn.com/retirement/guide/401k_basics.moneymag/index10.htm .  Employees will be auto-enrolled in the 401k at 2% contribution on the first day of their 7th month from date of hire. You will want to go into your account (in ADP https://workforcenow.adp.com > Myself > Benefits > Retirement Savings) or contact the 401k help line (see number below) to raise your contribution rate to 6% and choose where you want that money invested.  Check out this article for more information on 401ks (for beginners): http://www.thesimpledollar.com/a-complete-beginners-guide-to-401k-plans/ For assistance enrolling, chosing your investments, or for any other questions, you can call the 401k Participant Help Line at 800-695-7526. To Opt Out of our Plan: in ADP (https://workforcenow.adp.com) go to Myself > Benefits > Retirement Savings. Change your contribution percentage to 0% and click SAVE. Roll Overs Into Our Plan: If you are interested in rolling funds from a previous retirement program into ours please call the 401k Team to get the most up to date instructions (800-695-7526). Also make sure to enter your beneficiaries in your 401k account online. Unfortunately the beneficiaries you enter in ADP for your life insurance do not transfer over to your 401k so you need to enter beneficiaries for your 401k plan. The beneficiaries you should enter are the people that you want your 401k to go to in the event of your death. TO ADD BENEFICIARIES FOR YOUR 401K:  log in to the 401k website at www.mykplan.com  click My Account > Manage My Beneficiaries  click Add New Beneficiary

REDUCE YOUR INCOME TAXES TODAY BY SAVING PRE-TAX There are benefits to saving in the plan pre-tax. Saving pre-tax lowers your current taxable income. It allows you to pay less in taxes now and take more income home. You can see the advantage of pre-tax saving in the chart: it costs less to contribute when you save pre-tax so you may be able to afford to save more than you think.

» The out-of-pocket amount is less than the You are not required to pay taxes on your savings and earnings until you make withdrawals. In retirement, you may be in a lower tax bracket because you are working part-time or not at all, so deferring taxes can be a benefit. It may also help your account compound faster by putting more money to work for you now with the money you may have paid in taxes.

CONSIDER THE ROTH 401(K) OPTION Your plan offers another tax-advantaged savings option: a Roth 401(k). With Roth, your contributions are taxed now—instead of when you retire. Your contributions and earnings grow tax-free, which means you pay no taxes when you make a withdrawal if certain conditions are met. A Roth 401(k) may be right for you if: • •

INVESTMENT OPTIONS You control how your savings are invested. You have a variety of investment options in your plan to help you create the asset allocation that is right for your needs and goals. See the Performance Summary for a complete fund listing. Asset Allocation When you make your own asset allocation decision, it’s important to spread your savings among different investments, which can help smooth the ups and downs of market cycles and reduce portfolio risk. Your account allocation is one of the most important decisions you can make in your retirement planning and can have a big impact on your investment results. To help you think about your asset allocation, the Investor Profiler on page 5 can get you started. In deciding how to allocate the investment of your account balance, keep in mind that some of the plan’s investment options, known as “target date funds,” contain an asset allocation strategy within the investment option itself. The target date of a target date mutual fund is the approximate date when an investor plans to begin withdrawing their money from the fund. The funds automatically change their underlying asset allocation gradually over time, becoming more conservative as the target date approaches. Choosing one of these investment options could simplify your asset allocation approach.*

NEED MORE INFORMATION? Visit www.mykplan.com to access calculators, tools and information to help with your planning.

Concepts every investor should understand: •• Put time on your side. Starting earlier can increase your chances of affording a comfortable retirement. It will give your account more time to benefit from compounding. With more time, you can consider investing more aggressively, which may provide greater growth potential. •• Understand risk. All investments carry some risk. Market risk, the change in value of your investment in response to stock market conditions, is usually the risk people think of. However, inflation risk, the risk your money will not maintain its purchasing power over time, is equally important. In general, the more risk an investment carries, the greater the potential for a higher return. Those with less risk offer lower potential return. •• Diversify. A diversified allocation can help manage risk. Spreading your money across different asset classes can help smooth out stock market fluctuations and reduce overall risk. •• Think long term. Consider creating a diversified investment mix taking into account your age, years to retirement and risk tolerance, and sticking to it. You’ll want to review your strategy as life changes occur or you near retirement. •• Invest regularly. Making regular automatic contributions, like you do in the plan, is an easy way to invest. Each contribution buys shares in your investment funds—some at lower prices and some at higher prices. Over time, this process may lower the average purchase price of your investments.

* The underlying mutual funds in the portfolios of asset allocation funds are subject to stock market risk and invest in individual bonds whose yields and market values fluctuate, so that your investment may be worth more or less than its original cost. The target date of a target date mutual fund is the approximate date when an investor plans to begin withdrawing their money from the fund. The principal value of a target date fund is not guaranteed at any time, including at the target date. Keep in mind that a target date mutual fund is comprised of a mix of underlying investment options in various asset classes. Therefore, if you decide to invest in other funds in addition to a target date mutual fund, you may overweight your account in a particular asset class. Diversification and dollar cost averaging do not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market. There is no guarantee that your balance will increase over time. 4 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 79

Profiles Conservative Profile This profile may be right for you if you want to avoid a potential loss of account value, or if you are nearing retirement. You should be willing to go without the potential for higher long-term returns in exchange for a more stable and predictable return. Moderate Conservative Profile This profile may be right for you if your primary goal is to avoid short-term losses. However, you also want higher long-term returns to offset the effects of inflation. Your account will likely have relative stability, but in order to keep up with inflation, some fluctuations in your account value should be expected. Moderate Profile This profile may be right for you if you are interested in balancing your level of risk and return. You want to have returns

Moderate Aggressive Profile This profile may be right for you if you have more time until retirement and can tolerate higher-than-average fluctuations in your account value. This type of allocation provides the potential for higher-than-average returns over the long term. You should be willing to accept short-term losses and less stable returns. Aggressive Profile This profile may be right for you if you are willing and able to stay the course through short-term gains and losses because you want the potential for higher returns over the long term. You should have a long time until retirement and a high tolerance for risk. You should be willing to accept frequent short-term losses and extreme fluctuations in account value.

A certified or bank check must accompany this form for the stated dollar amount. Pre-printed checks are required. Handwritten checks will be returned to the Plan Administrator.

I have also reviewed a description of each of the funds, and understand the objectives, risks, expenses and charges associated with each.

I understand that if I do not have a plan account one will be established for my rollover contribution and invested in the plan default fund. Once my account has been established, I will be mailed my account access information and can make investment allocation changes through the plan website or Voice Response System. If I already have a plan account established, I direct that my rollover contribution be invested in accordance with my investment election on file.

In an effort to prevent short-term trading and market timing, many investment companies have established excessive trading and/or redemption fee policies for certain investments. ADP Retirement Services, whenever possible, implements the investment company’s market timing policy (please review the fund’s prospectus for information on a specific fund company’s policies). However, there are instances when ADP Retirement Services may need to implement its own market timing policy, which could differ from the investment company’s policy, in order to ensure compliance with the fund’s prospectus. Because investment options in your retirement savings plan may be subject to these policies, please refer to your Plan Participant Web site (or, if the Web site is not available to you, call a Client Services Representative) for additional information.

Investment Returns and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that when an investor's shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than the original cost. The returns represent past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. An expense ratio is a fund's annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of average net assets and includes management fees, administrative fees, and any marketing and distribution fees. Expense ratios directly reduce returns to investors. The expense ratio typically includes the following types of fees: accounting, administrator, advisor, auditor, board of directors, custodial, distribution (12b-1), legal, organizational, professional, registration, shareholder reporting, sub-advisor, and transfer agency. The expense ratio does not reflect the fund’s brokerage costs or any investor sales charges. For publicly traded mutual funds, the net prospectus expense ratio is collected from the fund's most recent prospectus and provided by Morningstar. This is the percentage of fund assets paid for operating expenses and management fees. In contrast to the net expense ratio, the gross expense ratio does not reflect any fee waivers in effect during the time period. Morningstar pulls the prospectus gross expense ratio from the fund’s most recent prospectus. Commingled Fund expense ratios are provided by the investment managers.

Invesco Stable Asset Fund - ADPZ Class STRATEGY: The primary investment objective of the Fund will be to seek the preservation of principal and to provide interest income reasonably obtained under prevailing market conditions and rates, consistent with seeking to maintain required liquidity. The Fund’s returns are based on returns generated by an actively-managed, highly diversified portfolio of investment grade, fixed and floating rate securities. The Fund may invest in such securities directly or indirectly through commingled investment vehicles (the “building block strategy”). This building block strategy may provide greater diversification than could be achieved by investing in individual bonds. This building block strategy also may reduce the unintended impact on portfolio characteristics created by participant cash flow. JPMorgan Core Plus Bond Fund - Class R6 STRATEGY: The investment seeks a high level of current income by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of high-, medium- and low-grade debt securities. The fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes in bonds. Under normal conditions, at least 65% of the fund's total assets must be invested in securities that, at the time of purchase, are rated investment grade. It may invest up to 35% of its net assets in foreign securities, including securities denominated in foreign currencies. The fund's average weighted maturity will ordinarily range between five and twenty years. Vanguard Intermediate Term Bond Index Fund - Admiral Class STRATEGY: The investment seeks the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. 5-10 Year Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index. Bloomberg Barclays U.S. 5-10 Year Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index includes all medium and larger issues of U.S. government, investment-grade corporate and investment-grade international dollar-denominated bonds that have maturities between 5 and 10 years and are publicly issued. All of its investments will be selected through the sampling process, and at least 80% of its assets will be invested in bonds held in the index. BlackRock High Yield Bond Portfolio - Class K STRATEGY: The investment seeks to maximize total return, consistent with income generation and prudent investment management. The fund invests primarily in non-investment grade bonds with maturities of ten years or less. It normally invests at least 80% of its assets in high yield bonds.

The fund invests in other Vanguard mutual funds according to an asset allocation strategy designed for investors planning to retire and leave the workforce in or within a few years of 2020 (the target year).

DFA US Core Equity 1 Portfolio - Institutional Class STRATEGY: The investment seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation. The fund purchases a broad and diverse group of securities of U.S. companies with a greater emphasis on small capitalization and value companies as compared to their representation in the U.S. Universe.

The fund seeks to be diversified across industry sectors.

Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund - Class R6 STRATEGY: The investment seeks to provide long-term capital growth.

Income: Money Market, Stable Value, and Fixed Income investment funds. Growth and Income: Balanced and Lifestyle investment funds. Growth: Large and Mid Capitalization investment funds. Aggressive Growth: Small Capitalization, Specialty, Foreign Stock and World Stock investment funds. The Morningstar Category identifies funds based on their actual investment styles as measured by their underlying portfolio holdings (portfolio statistics and compositions over the past three years). If the fund is new and has no portfolio, Morningstar estimates where it will fall before assigning a more permanent category. When necessary, Morningstar may change a category assignment based on current information.

By signing this form, I certify that: • I am rolling over these funds within 60 days of the date I received them from an eligible employer plan or IRA (not applicable to direct rollovers). • The rollover is from the source indicated and has not been combined with any money that would disqualify it. • No portion of this rollover contribution represents amounts received as a hardship distribution from another employer plan. I understand that if I do not have a plan account one will be established for my rollover contribution and invested in the plan default fund. Once my account has been established, I will be mailed my account access information and can make investment allocation changes through the plan website or Voice Response System. If I already have a plan account established, I direct that my rollover contribution be invested in accordance with my investment election on file. Many investment companies have excessive trading and/or redemption fee policies for certain investments to eliminate or reduce the negative effects of short-term trading and market timing. When possible, ADP Retirement Services implements the investment company's market timing policy (as disclosed in the prospectus). However, in some circumstances ADP may impose a different policy than listed in the prospectus at the request or with the agreement of a fund company. Your plan investment options may be subject to these policies. See your plan website for your plan’s fund policies and additional information. Signature of Employee/Participant

Variable Performance Investment Comparative Chart2 The Comparative Chart below includes performance of investment options that do not have a fixed or stated rate of return. It shows: • Average Annual total Return3 - Investment option performance over time as compared to an appropriate benchmark4 for the same time period, • Total Annual Operating Expenses -The actual cost to you for investing in a fund is the Net Expense Ratio amount. The impact of that expense is already included in the Average Annual Total Return displayed. • Shareholder type Charges and Investment Restrictions – are investment related fees not reflected in Total Annual Operating Expenses, and fund specific investment restrictions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Your investment in these options could lose money. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. The most recent performance and information about risks is available at www.mykplan.com on the “Investment Performance and Information” page.

________________________________________ 2

Please note that this chart presents certain information about investments in the Plan. The information may differ in content (for example, the time periods over which performance is calculated) or in format from other material provided to you in written communications, on the Participant Website or in other websites or publications. 3 Average Annual Total Return is a measure of the average return of an investment over some historical period, such as 5 or 10 years. These returns are reported after adjusting for the fund’s operating expenses, or Net Expense Ratio, but do not include any sales charges or brokerage commissions incurred in managing the fund. 4 In order to evaluate an investment fund’s performance, it is sometimes helpful to compare that fund’s returns for the same period against the return of the market from which the fund is choosing its investments. Certain independent companies publish Benchmarks, such as the Standard & Poor’s 500, which are meant to approximate the return of all of the investments in that market. Each fund compares its returns against the Benchmark they feel most appropriately represents the market in which they are investing that fund’s assets.

The Net Expense Ratio is the fund’s "Total Expense Ratio (Gross)" reduced for any investment management fee waivers that are currently in effect. The Gross Expense Ratio is the fund's total expense ratio which is defined as the total cost of investing and administering assets, including management fees, 12b-1 fee (if applicable) in a mutual fund or other collective fund expressed as a percentage of total assets. The Per $1,000 Total Annual Operating Expenses listed in the table above is the total annual operating expenses of the investment for a one-year period expressed as a dollar amount for a $1,000 investment, assuming no returns and based on the stated percentage. Fees and expenses are only one of several factors that you should consider when making investment decisions. The cumulative effect of fees and expenses may substantially reduce the growth of your retirement account. For more information about fees and expenses, visit the Department of Labor’s web site at http://www.dol.gov/ebsa/publications/401k_employee.html.

Other Items to Consider

Your Plan Administrator will soon provide you with a Participant Fee Disclosure Statement that summarizes the fees and expenses that may apply to you when participating in your retirement plan. Important Considerations When Choosing Investments Information about plan fees and expenses is important and there is a great deal of information available to you. However, remember that when making decisions about saving and investing for retirement there is more to consider than just fees. You should also take into account other factors like the historical performance of an investment option and its investment objectives, strategies and risks. Your individual situation, your risk tolerance (which is your ability and willingness to lose some or all of an investment in exchange for greater potential returns), your time horizon, and the other financial resources you may have outside of the plan should also be a part of your personal retirement plan.

This information is intended to provide general financial investment and retirement information and should not be construed as investment advice. For complete information about a particular fund, please read the fund prospectus (or information statement, in the case of commingled funds). You should carefully consider an investment option’s objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing. The prospectus (or information statement, as applicable) contains this and other important information about the investment option and investment company. Please read the prospectus/information statement carefully before you invest or send money.

Fees and Expenses

Soon, you will receive a Participant Fee Disclosure Statement from your employer that summarizes the fees that may be applicable to you as a participant in your retirement plan.

Understanding these fees can help you make informed decisions about your retirement planning. Fees and expenses are a part of every retirement plan. Keep in mind that saving for your future financial security is important and fees are just one of many factors to consider when making decisions about saving and investing for your retirement.

Types of Fees and Expenses There are primarily three types of fees and expenses: administrative, individual, and investment related fees. Some may be paid by your employer and others you will be responsible for paying.

Administrative expenses These expenses are charges for services that are necessary to operate the plan. Record keeping, legal, accounting and trustee services are considered administrative expenses. These fees may be paid by your employer or charged to the plan. If they are charged to the plan they may be shared among and paid by all of the participants in the plan. These fees, if applicable to you, would be reflected on your quarterly account statement.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 120


Individual expenses This expense type includes charges for services that are specific to transactions you have requested as a participant. Some examples include plan loan fee, or charges for a final distribution or withdrawal. These are transaction and service-based fees charged only if you elect to use a service or feature where a fee would apply. For example, if your plan offers loans and you take one, the loan fee would be deducted from your account. These fees are deducted directly from your account.

Investment related expenses These expenses are charges for the investment management and the operation of the investment options that are available under the plan. There are primarily three types of investment expenses: Operating expense. This is the annual cost for operating and managing a specific investment option, and is often referred to as the fund “expense ratio”. This expense is not charged separately to participant accounts but instead it reduces the investment return that investors may receive from a fund. These types of expenses are common whether you are investing through a retirement plan or outside of a plan. Expense ratios are often calculated as gross and net expense ratio: TT

Expense ratios are reported as percentages and may also be shown as a dollar cost per $1,000 invested. For example, an investment option with a net expense ratio of 1.10% has an annual cost of $11 per $1,000 invested.

EXAMPLE OF ANNUAL FEES CHARGED TO A HYPOTHETICAL ACCOUNT:

You can find fund expense ratios on the plan performance summary that was provided at an enrollment meeting, on your account statement and on the participant website. Fund operating expenses can vary widely depending on the type of investment product and investment manager, so be sure to review this expense information carefully when choosing your investments. Generally, investment products that require significant investment management will likely charge higher fees.

Total Account Assets....................... $20,000

Redemption fees. To discourage short term trading and market timing, many firms have established excessive trading and/or redemption fee policies for certain investments. For example, some investment options may require you to hold shares for a minimum amount of time, such as 90 days, and some may also restrict how often you can buy and sell shares within a certain period of time. For these investments, a redemption fee may be charged when an investment is sold or redeemed. Generally, this fee is charged directly to the your account and typically is a percentage of the assets that were sold. The investment options available in your plan may or may not charge redemption fees. If these fees are applied to your account, they will appear on your quarterly account statement.

This is a hypothetical illustration and does not reflect any specific account, plan or investment option. Calculation assumes a constant balance of $20,000 on each day of the year (i.e., no investment gains or losses). Actual expenses charged against an investment fund will vary based on the daily balance in the fund. For information about the specific fees and expenses that may apply to your plan, see the Participant Fee Disclosure Statement provided by your Plan Administrator.

Shareholder-type fees. This type of fee may include commissions, sales loads, surrender charges and exchange fees. They are charged directly against your investment and are not included in the fund’s annual operating expenses. The investment options available in your plan may or may not charge these types of fees. Generally, shareholder-type fees will not apply to your plan account.

ADP Fee Disclosure Plan Participant FAQ U.S. Department of Labor regulations related to company-sponsored retirement plans require retirement plan administrators (typically the company offering the retirement plan) to disclose detailed information to “eligible plan participants” (that is, eligible non-participating employees and active participants with an account balance) about plan fees, expenses, and investment options. In doing so, plan participants are then potentially better prepared to make informed decisions about their retirement plan account. Below are some frequently asked questions related to the disclosures. Question

Answer

Why did I receive a participant fee disclosure statement?

The disclosure statement is required to be provided to you by the plan administrator and is for informational purposes. You should read the document, but you are not required to take any action. But if you are not currently participating in the plan, please consider enrolling (see below).

What is the participant fee disclosure statement?

The document explains the costs and fees that you may be charged for participating in your employer’s retirement plan. It also has information about your plan’s investments and other information about your plan.

Do I need to do anything?

No. The document is provided for informational purposes only.

I don’t participate in my company’s retirement plan. Is the plan costing me anything?

No. If you do not participate in the plan no fees will be charged to you. However if you rolled money into the plan or maintain a balance in the plan— even though you may not be actively making contributions to the plan—you could be subject to plan administrative expenses, individual expenses and investment related expenses.

How can I participate in the plan?

If you are eligible to enroll in the plan, you can enroll right now at www.mykplan.com. Use the User ID and Password that was mailed to you to access the site.

What other information is available to me?

Further information about the investment options designated by your employer, such as fund performance, is available on www.mykplan.com. Some of this information is in addition to previously available information. Use the User ID and Password that was mailed to you to access the site.

Annual Notices Newborn’s Act Disclosure - Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under Federal law, restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, Federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under Federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the insurance issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).

Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 (WHCRA) - Do you know that your plan, as required by the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998, provides benefits for mastectomy-related services including all stages of reconstruction and surgery to achieve symmetry between the breasts, prostheses, and complications resulting from a mastectomy, including lymphedema? If you have had or are going to have a mastectomy, you may be entitled to certain benefits under the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 (WHCRA). For individuals receiving mastectomy-related benefits, coverage will be provided in a manner determined in consultation with the attending physician and the patient, for: All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy was performed; Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; Prostheses; and Treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy, including lymphedema. These benefits will be provided subject to the same deductibles and coinsurance applicable to other medical and surgical benefits provided under this plan.

Michelle’s Law - Michelle’s Law, passed in 2008, prohibits group health plans from terminating coverage for a dependent child who has lost student status as a result of a medically necessary leave of absence. Plans must continue to provide coverage for up to one year or until coverage would otherwise terminate under the plan. Plans are allowed to require physician certification of the medical necessity for the leave of absence.

Premium Assistance Under Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov. If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available. If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan. If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).

HIPAA Notices Special Enrollment - If you are declining enrollment for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in this plan if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other coverage (or if the employer stops contributing toward your or your dependents’ other coverage). However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after you or your dependents’ other coverage ends (or after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage). If you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption. Your group health plan will allow an employee or dependent who is eligible, but not enrolled, for coverage to enroll for coverage if either of the following events occurs: 1. TERMINATION OF MEDICAID OR CHILDREN’S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP) COVERAGE – If the employee or dependent is covered under a Medicaid plan or under a State child health plan and coverage of the employee or dependent under such a plan is terminated as a result of loss of eligibility. 2. ELIGIBILITY FOR EMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE UNDER MEDICAID OR CHIP – If the employee or dependent becomes eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or a State child health plan, including under any waiver or demonstration project conducted under or in relation to such a plan. This is usually a program where the state assists employed individuals with premium payment assistance for their employer’s group health plan rather than direct enrollment in a state Medicaid program. To be eligible for this special enrollment opportunity you must request coverage under the group health plan within 60 days after the date the employee or dependent becomes eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP or the date your or your dependent’s Medicaid or state-sponsored CHIP coverage ends.

Prohibition against discrimination based on a health factor. Under HIPAA, a group health plan may not keep you (or your dependents) out of the plan based on anything related to your health. In addition, a group health plan may not charge you (or your dependents) more for coverage, based on health, than the amount charged a similarly situated individual.

The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) prohibits discrimination in group health plan coverage based on genetic information. It expands the genetic information protections included in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and prevents a plan or issuer from imposing a pre-existing condition exclusion provision based solely on genetic information, and prohibits discrimination in individual eligibility, benefits, or premiums based on any health factor (including genetic information). GINA also generally prohibits plans and issuers from requesting or requiring an individual to undergo a genetic test and from collecting genetic information (including family medical history) prior to or in connection with enrollment, or for underwriting purposes.

HIPAA Notices Right to individual health coverage. Under HIPAA, if you are an “eligible individual”, you have a right to buy certain individual health policies (or in some states, to buy coverage through a high-risk pool) without a pre-existing condition exclusion. To be an eligible individual, you must meet the following requirements: You have had coverage for at least 18 months without a break in coverage of 63 days or more; Your most recent coverage was under a group health plan; Your group coverage was not terminated because of fraud or nonpayment of premiums; You are not eligible for COBRA continuation coverage or you have exhausted your COBRA benefits (or continuation coverage under a similar state provision); and You are not eligible for another group health plan, Medicare, or Medicaid, and do not have any other health insurance coverage. The right to buy individual coverage is the same whether you are laid off, fired, or quit your job. Therefore, if you are interested in obtaining individual coverage and you meet the other criteria to be an eligible individual, you should apply for this coverage as soon as possible to avoid losing your eligible individual status due to a 63-day break.

Special information for people on FMLA leave. If you are taking leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and you drop health coverage during your leave, any days without health coverage while on FMLA leave will not count toward a 63-day break in coverage. In addition, if you do not return from leave, the 30-day period to request special enrollment in another plan will not start before your FMLA leave ends. Therefore, when you apply for other health coverage, you should tell your plan administrator or health insurer about any prior FMLA leave.

Notice of Availability for HIPAA/Notice of Privacy Practices. Aspen Heights Welfare Benefits Plan would like to communicate the availability of its Notice of Privacy Practices. At any time, a copy of the current Notice of Privacy Practices may be obtained by accessing your ADP member portal or by contacting Human Resources at 512-910-3266.

For more information. If you have questions about your HIPAA rights, you may contact your state insurance department or the U.S. Department of Labor, Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA), toll-free at (866) 444-3272 (for free HIPAA publications ask for publications concerning changes in health care laws). You may also contact the CMS publication hotline at (800) 633-4227 (ask for Protecting Your Health Insurance Coverage).

Notice of COBRA Continuation Coverage Rights **Continuation Coverage Rights Under COBRA** Introduction You are receiving this notice because you have recently gained coverage under a group health plan (the Plan). This notice contains important information about your right to COBRA continuation coverage, which is a temporary extension of coverage under the Plan. This notice explains COBRA continuation coverage, when it may become available to you and your family, and what you need to do to protect the right to receive it. When you become eligible for COBRA, you may also become eligible for other coverage options that may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage. The right to COBRA continuation coverage was created by a federal law, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA). COBRA continuation coverage can become available to you and other members of your family when group health coverage would otherwise end. For more information about your rights and obligations under the Plan and under federal law, you should review the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or contact the Plan Administrator. You may have other options available to you when you lose group health coverage. For example, you may be eligible to buy an individual plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. By enrolling in coverage through the Marketplace, you may qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and lower out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, you may qualify for a 30-day special enrollment period for another group health plan for which you are eligible (such as a spouse’s plan), even if that plan generally doesn’t accept late enrollees. What is COBRA continuation coverage? COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life event known as a “qualifying event.” Specific qualifying events are listed later in this notice. After a qualifying event, COBRA continuation coverage must be offered to each person who is a “qualified beneficiary.” You, your spouse, and your dependent children could become qualified beneficiaries if coverage under the Plan is lost because of the qualifying event. Under the Plan, qualified beneficiaries who elect COBRA continuation coverage must pay for COBRA continuation coverage. If you are an employee, you will become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: Your hours of employment are reduced, or Your employment ends for any reason other than your gross misconduct. If you are the spouse of an employee, you will become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: • •

Your spouse dies; Your spouse’s hours of employment are reduced; Your spouse’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct; Your spouse becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); or You become divorced or legally separated from your spouse.

Your dependent children will become qualified beneficiaries if they lose coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: • • •

The parent-employee dies; The parent-employee’s hours of employment are reduced; The parent-employee’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct; The parent-employee becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (Part A, Part B, or both); The parents become divorced or legally separated; or The child stops being eligible for coverage under the plan as a “dependent child.”

When is COBRA continuation coverage available? The Plan will offer COBRA continuation coverage to qualified beneficiaries only after the Plan Administrator has been notified that a qualifying event has occurred. The employer must notify the Plan Administrator of the following qualifying events:

The end of employment or reduction of hours of employment; Death of the employee; The employee’s becoming entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both)

Notice of COBRA Continuation Coverage Rights **Continuation Coverage Rights Under COBRA** For the other qualifying events (divorce or legal separation of the employee and spouse or a dependent child’s losing eligibility for coverage as a dependent child), you must notify the Plan Administrator within 60 days after the qualifying event occurs. How is COBRA continuation coverage provided? Once the Plan Administrator receives notice that a qualifying event has occurred, COBRA continuation coverage will be offered to each of the qualified beneficiaries. Each qualified beneficiary will have an independent right to elect COBRA continuation coverage. Covered employees may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their spouses, and parents may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their children. COBRA continuation coverage is a temporary continuation of coverage that generally lasts for 18 months due to employment termination or reduction of hours of work. Certain qualifying events, or a second qualifying event during the initial period of coverage, may permit a beneficiary to receive a maximum of 36 months of coverage. There are also ways in which this 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage can be extended: Disability extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by the Social Security Administration to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to receive up to an additional 11 months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a total maximum of 29 months. The disability would have to have started at some time before the 60th day of COBRA continuation coverage and must last at least until the end of the 18-month period of continuation coverage. Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage If your family experiences another qualifying event during the 18 month of COBRA continuation coverage, the spouse and dependent children in your family can get up to 18 additional months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 36 months, if the Plan is properly notified about the second qualifying event. This extension may be available to the spouse and any dependent children getting COBRA continuation coverage if the employee or former employee dies; becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); gets divorced or legally separated; or if the dependent child stops being eligible under the Plan as a dependent child. This extension is only available if the second qualifying event would have caused the spouse or dependent child to lose coverage under the Plan had the first qualifying event not occurred. Are there other coverage options besides COBRA continuation coverage? Yes. Instead of enrolling in COBRA continuation coverage, there may be other coverage options for you and your family through the Health Insurance Marketplace, Medicaid, or other group health plan coverage options (such as a spouse’s plan) through what is called a “special enrollment period.” Some of these options may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage. You can learn more about many of these options at www.healthcare.gov. If You Have Questions Questions concerning your Plan or your COBRA continuation coverage rights should be addressed to the contact or contacts identified below. For more information about your rights under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), including COBRA, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and other laws affecting group health plans, contact the nearest Regional or District Office of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) in your area or visit the EBSA website at www.dol.gov/ebsa. (Addresses and phone numbers of Regional and District EBSA Offices are available through EBSA’s website.) For more information about the Marketplace, visit www.healthcare.gov. Keep Your Plan informed of address changes To protect your family’s rights, let the Plan Administrator know about any changes in the addresses of family members. You should also keep a copy, for your records, of any notices you send to the Plan Administrator. Plan contact information Name of Entity/Sender Name of Plan Contact-Position/Office

Important Notice from BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice. There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage: 1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium. 2. BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the Aspen Heights Welfare Benefits Plan is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan. When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan? You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15 th to December 7th However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan. What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan? If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights coverage will not be affected.

If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights coverage, be aware that you and your dependents will be able to get this coverage back, subject to plan enrollment rules and Section 125 regulations.

Important Notice from BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan? You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later. If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join. For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription Drug Coverage… Contact the person listed below for further information. NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will also get it before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan, and if this coverage through BRG Management, Inc DBA Aspen Heights changes. You also may request a copy of this notice at any time. For More Information About Your Options Under Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage… More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the “Medicare & You” handbook. You’ll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be contacted directly by Medicare drug plans. For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage: • •

NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA California law provides that for dental insurance, domestic partners of California’s residents must be treated the same as spouses.

For purposes of determining who may become a Covered Person, the term does not include any person who:  

Wherever the term Spouse appears, except in the definition of Spouse, it shall be replaced by Spouse or Domestic Partner.

NOTICE FOR MASSACHUSETTS RESIDENTS (Continued) The following provisions are required by Massachusetts law. Summary of Utilization Review Procedures MetLife reviews claims for evidence of need for certain dental procedures. These reviews are conducted by licensed dentists. If there is no evidence of need MetLife will deny benefits for a claim. MetLife also reviews claims to determine whether there exists a less costly treatment for a dental condition that is generally considered effective to treat the condition. If a less costly alternative treatment exists, MetLife will determine benefits based on the alternative treatment. If you want to determine the status of any such claim review, you can call MetLife at 1-800-275-4638. Summary of Quality Assurance Programs MetLife performs a check on certain credentials of any dentist applying to participate in MetLife’s Participating Dentist Program (PDP). If the credentials do not meet MetLife’s standards, for example if a dentist does not have a valid license, the dentist will not be permitted to participate in the PDP. MetLife does not interfere with the traditional relationship between PDP dentists and their patients, or any determination between the patient and dentist as to what the appropriate dental treatment may be. MetLife dental plans also allow you to choose between any dentist, whether they participate in the PDP or not. Therefore you should choose your dentist carefully, and you are responsible to be sure that your dentist delivers quality dental care.

NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS OF UTAH Notice of Protection Provided by Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association This notice provides a brief summary of the Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association ("the Association") and the protection it provides for policyholders. This safety net was created under Utah law, which determines who and what is covered and the amounts of coverage. The Association was established to provide protection in the unlikely event that your life, health, or annuity insurance company becomes financially unable to meet its obligations and is taken over by its insurance regulatory agency. If this should happen, the Association will typically arrange to continue coverage and pay claims, in accordance with Utah law, with funding from assessments paid by other insurance companies. The basic protections provided by the Association are:  Life Insurance o $500,000 in death benefits o $200,000 in cash surrender or withdrawal values  Health Insurance o $500,000 in hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits o $500,000 in long-term care insurance benefits o $500,000 in disability income insurance benefits o $500,000 in other types of health insurance benefits  Annuities o $250,000 in withdrawal and cash values The maximum amount of protection for each individual, regardless of the number of policies or contracts, is $500,000. Special rules may apply with regard to hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits. Note: Certain policies and contracts may not be covered or fully covered. For example, coverage does not extend to any portion of a policy or contract that the insurer does not guarantee, such as certain investment additions to the account value of a variable life insurance policy or a variable annuity contract. Coverage is conditioned on residency in this state and there are substantial limitations and exclusions. For a complete description of coverage, consult Utah Code, Title 3 lA, Chapter 28. Insurance companies and agents are prohibited by Utah law to use the existence of the Association or its coverage to encourage you to purchase insurance. When selecting an insurance company, you should not rely on Association coverage. If there is any inconsistency between Utah law and this notice, Utah law will control. To learn more about the above protections, as well as protections relating to group contracts or retirement plans, please visit the Association's website at www.utlifega.org or contact: Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Assoc. 60 East South Temple, Suite 500 Salt Lake City UT 84111 (801) 320-9955

42 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 183


DENTAL INSURANCE If You or a Dependent incur a charge for a Covered Service, Proof of such service must be sent to Us. When We receive such Proof, We will review the claim and if We approve it, will pay the insurance in effect on the date that service was completed. This Dental Insurance gives You access to Dentists through the MetLife Preferred Dentist Program (PDP). Dentists participating in the PDP have agreed to limit their charge for a dental service to the Maximum Allowed Charge for such service. Under the PDP, We pay benefits for Covered Services performed by either In-Network Dentists or Out-of-Network Dentists. However, You may be able to reduce Your out-of-pocket costs by using an In-Network Dentist because Out-of-Network Dentists have not entered into an agreement with Us to limit their charges. You are always free to receive services from any Dentist. You do not need any authorization from Us to choose a Dentist. The PDP does not provide dental services. Whether or not benefits are available for a particular service, does not mean You should or should not receive the service. You and Your Dentist have the right and are responsible at all times for choosing the course of treatment and services to be performed. After services have been performed, We will determine the extent to which benefits, if any, are payable. When requesting a Covered Service from an In-Network Dentist, We recommend that You:  

identify Yourself as an insured in the Preferred Dentist Program; and confirm that the Dentist is currently an In-Network Dentist at the time that the Covered Service is performed.

The amount of the benefit will not be affected by whether or not You identify Yourself as a member in the Preferred Dentist Program. You can obtain a customized listing of MetLife’s In-Network Dentists either by calling 1-800-275-4638 or by visiting Our website at www.metlife.com/dental. BENEFIT AMOUNTS We will pay benefits in an amount equal to the Covered Percentage for charges incurred by You or a Dependent for a Covered Service as shown in the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS, subject to the conditions set forth in this certificate. In-Network If a Covered Service is performed by an In-Network Dentist, We will base the benefit on the Covered Percentage of the Maximum Allowed Charge. If an In-Network Dentist performs a Covered Service, You will be responsible for paying:  

the Deductible; and any other part of the Maximum Allowed Charge for which We do not pay benefits.

Out-of-Network If a Covered Service is performed by an Out-of-Network Dentist, We will base the benefit on the Covered Percentage of the Maximum Allowed Charge. Out-of-Network Dentists may charge You more than the Maximum Allowed Charge. If an Out-of-Network Dentist performs a Covered Service, You will be responsible for paying:   

the Deductible; any other part of the Maximum Allowed Charge for which We do not pay benefits; and any amount in excess of the Maximum Allowed Charge charged by the Out-of-Network Dentist.

GCERT2000 den/mac 43 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 184


DENTAL INSURANCE (CONTINUED) Maximum Benefit Amounts The Schedule of Benefits sets forth Maximum Benefit Amounts We will pay for Covered Services received InNetwork and Out-of-Network. We will never pay more than the greater of the In-Network Maximum Benefit Amount or the Out-of-Network Maximum Benefit Amount. For example, if a Covered Service is received Out-of-Network and We pay $300 in benefits for such service, $300 will be applied toward both the In-Network and the Out-of-Network Maximum Benefit Amounts applicable to such service. Deductibles The Deductible amounts are shown in the Schedule of Benefits. The Yearly Individual Deductible is the amount that You and each Dependent must pay for Covered Services to which such Deductible applies each Year before We will pay benefits for such Covered Services. We apply amounts used to satisfy Yearly Individual Deductibles to the Yearly Family Deductible. Once the Yearly Family Deductible is satisfied, no further Yearly Individual Deductibles are required to be met. The amount We apply toward satisfaction of a Deductible for a Covered Service is the amount We use to determine benefits for such service. The Deductible Amount will be applied based on when Dental insurance claims for Covered Services are processed by Us. The Deductible Amount will be applied to Covered Services in the order that Dental Insurance claims for Covered Services are processed by Us regardless of when a Covered Service is “incurred”. When several Covered Services are incurred on the same date and Dental Insurance benefits are claimed as part of the same claim, the Deductible Amount is applied based on the Covered Percentage applicable to each Covered Service. The Deductible Amount will be applied in the order of highest Covered Percentage to lowest Covered Percentage. Alternate Benefit If We determine that a service, less costly than the Covered Service the Dentist performed, could have been performed to treat a dental condition, We will pay benefits based upon the less costly service if such service:  would produce a professionally acceptable result under generally accepted dental standards; and  would qualify as a Covered Service. For example:   

when a filling and an inlay are both professionally acceptable methods for treating tooth decay or breakdown, We may base Our benefit determination upon the filling which is the less costly service; when a filling and a crown are both professionally acceptable methods for treating tooth decay or breakdown, We may base Our benefit determination upon the filling which is the less costly service; and when a partial denture and fixed bridgework are both professionally acceptable methods for replacing multiple missing teeth in an arch, We may base Our benefit determination upon the partial denture which is the less costly service.

If We pay benefits based upon a less costly service in accordance with this subsection, the Dentist may charge You or Your Dependent for the difference between the service that was performed and the less costly service. This is the case even if the service is performed by an In-Network Dentist. Certain comprehensive dental services have multiple steps associated with them. These steps can be completed at one time or during multiple sessions. For benefit purposes under this certificate, these separate steps of one service are considered to be part of the more comprehensive service. Even if the dentist submits separate bills, the total benefit payable for all related charges will be limited by the maximum benefit payable for the more comprehensive service. For example, root canal therapy includes x-rays, opening of the pulp chamber, additional x-rays, and filling of the chamber. Although these services may be performed in multiple sessions, they all constitute root canal therapy. Therefore, we will only pay benefits for the root canal therapy. GCERT2000 den/mac

DENTAL INSURANCE (CONTINUED) Orthodontic Covered Services Orthodontic treatment generally consists of initial placement of an appliance and periodic follow-up visits. The benefit payable for the initial placement will not exceed 20% of the Maximum Benefit Amount for Orthodontia. The benefit payable for the periodic follow-up visits will be based on the lower of:  the amount charged by the Dentist; and  the Maximum Benefit Amount for Orthodontia. The benefit payable for the periodic follow-up visits will be payable on a monthly basis during the scheduled course of the orthodontic treatment if:  Dental Insurance is in effect for the person receiving the orthodontic treatment; and  proof is given to Us that the orthodontic treatment is continuing. Benefits for Orthodontic Services Begun Prior to this Dental Insurance If the initial placement was made prior to this Dental Insurance being in effect, the benefit payable will be reduced by the portion attributable to the initial placement. If the periodic follow-up visits commenced prior to this Dental Insurance being in effect:  the number of months for which benefits are payable will be reduced by the number of months of treatment performed before this Dental Insurance was in effect; and  the total amount of the benefit payable for the periodic visits will be reduced proportionately. Pretreatment Estimate of Benefits If a planned dental service is expected to cost more than $300, You have the option of requesting a pretreatment estimate of benefits. The Dentist should submit a claim detailing the services to be performed and the amount to be charged. After We receive this information, We will provide You with an estimate of the Dental Insurance benefits available for the service. The estimate is not a guarantee of the amount We will pay. Under the Alternate Benefit provision, benefits may be based on the cost of a service other than the service that You choose. You are required to submit Proof on or after the date the dental service is completed in order for Us to pay a benefit for such service. The pretreatment estimate of benefits is only an estimate of benefits available for proposed dental services. You are not required to obtain a pretreatment estimate of benefits. As always, You or Your Dependent and the Dentist are responsible for choosing the services to be performed. Benefits We Will Pay After Insurance Ends We will pay benefits for a 31 day period after Your Insurance ends for the completion of installation of a prosthetic device if:  

the Dentist prepared the abutment teeth or made impressions before Your Insurance ends; and the device is installed within 31 days after the date the Insurance ends.

DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS COORDINATION OF THIS CONTRACT'S BENEFITS WITH OTHER BENEFITS The Coordination of Benefits (COB) provision applies when a person has health care coverage under more than one Plan. Plan is defined below. The order of benefit determination rules govern the order in which each Plan will pay a claim for benefits. The Plan that pays first is called the primary Plan. The primary Plan must pay benefits in accord with its policy terms without regard to the possibility that another Plan may cover some expenses. The Plan that pays after the primary Plan is the secondary Plan. The secondary Plan may reduce the benefits it pays so that payments from all Plans equal 100 percent of the total Allowable Expense. DEFINITIONS (a) A "Plan" is any of the following that provides benefits or services for dental care or treatment. If separate contracts are used to provide coordinated coverage for members of a group, the separate contracts are considered parts of the same Plan and there is no COB among those separate contracts. (1) Plan includes: group, blanket, or franchise accident and health insurance policies, excluding disability income protection coverage; individual and group health maintenance organization evidences of coverage; individual accident and health insurance policies; individual and group preferred provider benefit Plans and exclusive provider benefit Plans; group insurance contracts, individual insurance contracts and subscriber contracts that pay or reimburse for the cost of dental care; dental care components of individual and group long-term care contracts; limited benefit coverage that is not issued to supplement individual or group in-force policies; uninsured arrangements of group or group-type coverage; the dental benefits coverage in automobile insurance contracts; and Medicare or other governmental benefits, as permitted by law. (2) Plan does not include: disability income protection coverage; the Texas Health Insurance Pool; workers' compensation insurance coverage; hospital confinement indemnity coverage or other fixed indemnity coverage; specified disease coverage; supplemental benefit coverage; accident only coverage; specified accident coverage; school accident-type coverages that cover students for accidents only, including athletic injuries, either on a "24-hour" or a "to and from school" basis; benefits provided in long-term care insurance contracts for non-medical services, for example, personal care, adult day care, homemaker services, assistance with activities of daily living, respite care, and custodial care or for contracts that pay a fixed daily benefit without regard to expenses incurred or the receipt of services; Medicare supplement policies; a state Plan under Medicaid; a governmental Plan that, by law, provides benefits that are in excess of those of any private insurance Plan; or other nongovernmental Plan; or an individual accident and health insurance policy that is designed to fully integrate with other policies through a variable deductible. Each contract for coverage under (a)(1) or (a)(2) is a separate Plan. If a Plan has two parts and COB rules apply only to one of the two, each of the parts is treated as a separate Plan. (b) "This Plan" means, in a COB provision, the part of the contract providing the health care benefits to which the COB provision applies and which may be reduced because of the benefits of other Plans. Any other part of the contract providing health care benefits is separate from This Plan. A contract may apply one COB provision to certain benefits, such as dental benefits, coordinating only with like benefits, and may apply other separate COB provisions to coordinate other benefits. The order of benefit determination rules determine whether This Plan is a primary Plan or secondary Plan when the person has health care coverage under more than one Plan. When This Plan is primary, it determines payment for its benefits first before those of any other Plan without considering any other Plan's benefits. When This Plan is secondary, it determines its benefits after those of another Plan and may reduce the benefits it pays so that all Plan benefits equal 100 percent of the total allowable expense.

52 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 193


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (c) "Allowable expense" is a dental care expense, including deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments, that is covered at least in part by any Plan covering the person. When a Plan provides benefits in the form of services, the reasonable cash value of each service will be considered an allowable expense and a benefit paid. An expense that is not covered by any Plan covering the person is not an Allowable Expense. In addition, any expense that a provider by law in accordance with a contractual agreement is prohibited from charging a covered person is not an Allowable Expense. The following are examples of expenses that are not Allowable Expenses:

(1) If a person is covered by two or more Plans that provide benefits or services on the basis of negotiated, an amount in excess of the highest of the negotiated fees is not an Allowable Expense. (2) If a person is covered by one Plan that does not have negotiated fees and that calculates its benefits or services based on usual and customary fees, allowed amounts, relative value schedule reimbursement methodology, or other similar reimbursement methodology, and another Plan that provides its benefits or services based on negotiated fees, the primary Plan's payment arrangement must be the Allowable Expense for all Plans. However, if the health care provider or physician has contracted with the secondary Plan to provide the benefit or service for a specific negotiated fee or payment amount that is different than the primary Plan's payment arrangement and if the health care provider's or physician's contract permits, the negotiated fee or payment must be the Allowable Expense used by the secondary Plan to determine its benefits. (3) The amount of any benefit reduction by the primary Plan because a covered person has failed to comply with the Plan provisions is not an Allowable Expense. Examples of these types of Plan provisions include second surgical opinions, prior authorization of admissions, and preferred provider arrangements. (d) "Allowed amount" is the amount of a billed charge that a carrier determines to be covered for services provided by a nonpreferred provider. The allowed amount includes both the carrier's payment and any applicable deductible, copayment, or coinsurance amounts for which the insured is responsible. (e) "Closed Panel Plan" is a Plan that provides dental care benefits to covered persons primarily in the form of services through a panel of health care providers and physicians that have contracted with or are employed by the Plan, and that excludes coverage for services provided by other health care providers and physicians, except in cases of emergency or referral by a panel member. (f) "Custodial Parent" is the parent with the right to designate the primary residence of a child by a court order under the Texas Family Code or other applicable law, or in the absence of a court order, is the parent with whom the child resides more than one-half of the calendar year, excluding any temporary visitation. When a person is covered by two or more Plans, the rules for determining the order of benefit payments are as follows: ORDER OF BENEFIT DETERMINATION RULES (a) The primary Plan pays or provides its benefits according to its terms of coverage and without regard to the benefits under any other Plan. (b) Except as provided in (c), a Plan that does not contain a COB provision that is consistent with this policy is always primary unless the provisions of both Plans state that the complying Plan is primary.

GCERT2000 den/cob 10/15

53 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 194


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (c) Coverage that is obtained by virtue of membership in a group that is designed to supplement a part of a basic package of benefits and provides that this supplementary coverage must be excess to any other parts of the Plan provided by the contract holder. Examples of these types of situations are major medical coverages that are superimposed over base Plan hospital and surgical benefits, and insurance type coverages that are written in connection with a Closed Panel Plan to provide out-ofnetwork benefits. (d) A Plan may consider the benefits paid or provided by another Plan in calculating payment of its benefits only when it is secondary to that other Plan. (e) If the primary Plan is a Closed Panel Plan and the secondary Plan is not, the secondary Plan must pay or provide benefits as if it were the primary Plan when a covered person uses a noncontracted health care provider or physician, except for emergency services or authorized referrals that are paid or provided by the primary Plan. (f) When multiple contracts providing coordinated coverage are treated as a single Plan under this subchapter, this section applies only to the Plan as a whole, and coordination among the component contracts is governed by the terms of the contracts. If more than one carrier pays or provides benefits under the Plan, the carrier designated as primary within the Plan must be responsible for the Plan's compliance with this subchapter. (g) If a person is covered by more than one secondary Plan, the order of benefit determination rules of this subchapter decide the order in which secondary Plans' benefits are determined in relation to each other. Each secondary Plan must take into consideration the benefits of the primary Plan or Plans and the benefits of any other Plan that, under the rules of this contract, has its benefits determined before those of that secondary Plan. (h) Each Plan determines its order of benefits using the first of the following rules that apply. (1) Nondependent or Dependent. The Plan that covers the person other than as a dependent, for example as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree, is the primary Plan, and the Plan that covers the person as a dependent is the secondary Plan. However, if the person is a Medicare beneficiary and, as a result of federal law, Medicare is secondary to the Plan covering the person as a dependent and primary to the Plan covering the person as other than a dependent, then the order of benefits between the two Plans is reversed so that the Plan covering the person as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree is the secondary Plan and the other Plan is the primary Plan. An example includes a retired employee. (2) Dependent Child Covered Under More Than One Plan. Unless there is a court order stating otherwise, Plans covering a Dependent Child must determine the order of benefits using the following rules that apply. (A) For a Dependent Child whose parents are married or are living together, whether or not they have ever been married: (i) The Plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in the calendar year is the primary Plan; or (ii) If both parents have the same birthday, the Plan that has covered the parent the longest is the primary Plan. (B) For a Dependent Child whose parents are divorced, separated, or not living together, whether or not they have ever been married: (i) if a court order states that one of the parents is responsible for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage and the Plan of that parent has actual knowledge of those terms, that Plan is primary. This rule applies to Plan years commencing after the Plan is given notice of the court decree.

GCERT2000 den/cob 10/15

54 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 195


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (ii) if a court order states that both parents are responsible for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) must determine the order of benefits. (iii) if a court order states that the parents have joint custody without specifying that one parent has responsibility for the health care expenses or health care coverage of the Dependent Child, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) must determine the order of benefits. (iv) if there is no court order allocating responsibility for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage, the order of benefits for the Child are as follows: (I) the Plan covering the custodial parent; (II) the Plan covering the spouse of the custodial parent; (III) the Plan covering the noncustodial parent; then (IV) the Plan covering the spouse of the noncustodial parent. (C) For a Dependent Child covered under more than one Plan of individuals who are not the parents of the Child, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) or (h)(2)(B) must determine the order of benefits as if those individuals were the parents of the Child. (D) For a Dependent Child who has coverage under either or both parents' Plans and has his or her own coverage as a dependent under a spouse's Plan, (h)(5) applies. (E) In the event the Dependent Child's coverage under the spouse's Plan began on the same date as the Dependent Child's coverage under either or both parents' Plans, the order of benefits must be determined by applying the birthday rule in (h)(2)(A) to the dependent Child's parent(s) and the dependent's spouse.] (3) Active, Retired, or Laid-off Employee. The Plan that covers a person as an active employee, that is, an employee who is neither laid off nor retired, is the Primary Plan. The Plan that covers that same person as a retired or laid-off employee is the secondary Plan. The same would hold true if a person is a dependent of an active employee and that same person is a dependent of a retired or laid-off employee. If the Plan that covers the same person as a retired or laid-off employee or as a dependent of a retired or laid-off employee does not have this rule, and as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule does not apply. This rule does not apply if (h)(1) can determine the order of benefits. (4) COBRA or State Continuation Coverage. If a person whose coverage is provided under COBRA or under a right of continuation provided by state or other federal law is covered under another Plan, the Plan covering the person as an employee, member, subscriber, or retiree or covering the person as a dependent of an employee, member, subscriber, or retiree is the primary Plan, and the COBRA, state, or other federal continuation coverage is the secondary Plan. If the other Plan does not have this rule, and as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule does not apply. This rule does not apply if (h)(1) can determine the order of benefits. (5) Longer or Shorter Length of Coverage. The Plan that has covered the person as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree longer is the primary Plan, and the Plan that has covered the person the shorter period is the secondary Plan. (6) If the preceding rules do not determine the order of benefits, the allowable expenses must be shared equally between the Plans meeting the definition of Plan. In addition, This Plan will not pay more than it would have paid had it been the primary Plan.

DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) EFFECT ON THE BENEFITS OF THIS PLAN (a) When This Plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits so that the total benefits paid or provided by all Plans are not more than the total allowable expenses. In determining the amount to be paid for any claim, the secondary Plan will calculate the benefits it would have paid in the absence of other health care coverage and apply that calculated amount to any allowable expense under its Plan that is unpaid by the primary Plan. The secondary Plan may then reduce its payment by the amount so that, when combined with the amount paid by the primary Plan, the total benefits paid or provided by all Plans for the claim equal 100 percent of the total allowable expense for that claim. In addition, the secondary Plan must credit to its Plan deductible any amounts it would have credited to its deductible in the absence of other health care coverage. (b) If a covered person is enrolled in two or more closed panel Plans and if, for any reason, including the provision of service by a nonpanel provider, benefits are not payable by one closed panel Plan, COB must not apply between that Plan and other closed panel Plans. COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS CONCERNING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION Certain facts about health care coverage and services are needed to apply these COB rules and to determine benefits payable under This Plan and other Plans. We will comply with federal and state law concerning confidential information for the purpose of applying these rules and determining benefits payable under This Plan and other Plans covering the person claiming benefits. Each person claiming benefits under This Plan must give Us any facts it needs to apply those rules and determine benefits. FACILITY OF PAYMENT A payment made under another Plan may include an amount that should have been paid under This Plan. If it does, We may pay that amount to the organization that made that payment. That amount will then be treated as though it were a benefit paid under This Plan. We will not have to pay that amount again. The term "payment made" includes providing benefits in the form of services, in which case "payment made" means the reasonable cash value of the benefits provided in the form of services. RIGHT OF RECOVERY If the amount of the payments made by Us is more than it should have paid under this COB provision, it may recover the excess from one or more of the persons it has paid or for whom it has paid or any other person or organization that may be responsible for the benefits or services provided for the covered person. The "amount of the payments made" includes the reasonable cash value of any benefits provided in the form of services.

The following applies to employers with 20 or more employees that are not church or government plans: NOTICE OF YOUR RIGHT AND YOUR DEPENDENTS' RIGHT TO COBRA CONTINUATION COVERAGE COBRA is a federal law that requires most group health plans to give their employees and their dependents the opportunity to continue coverage when coverage is terminated due to certain specific events. If your employment terminates for any reason other than your gross misconduct, or if your hours worked are reduced so that your coverage terminates, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for a period of up to 18 months. If it is determined under the terms of the Social Security Act that You or your covered dependent is disabled within the first 60 days of COBRA coverage, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue your dental coverage under This Plan for an additional 11 months after the expiration of the 18 month period. In addition, if you should die, become divorced or legally separated, or become eligible for Medicare, your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months. Also, your covered children may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months after they no longer qualify as covered dependents under the terms of This Plan. Group health plans for employers with fewer than 20 employees, church plans, and plans established and maintained by the federal government are not subject to COBRA continuation requirements. During the continuation period, a child of yours that is (1) born; (2) adopted by you; or (3) placed with you for adoption, will be treated as if the child were a covered dependent at the time coverage was lost due to an event described above. This continuation will terminate on the earliest of: a. the end of the 18, 29 or 36 month continuation period, as the case may be; b. the date of expiration of the last period for which the required payment was made; c.

the date, after you or your covered dependent elects to continue coverage, that you or your covered dependent first becomes covered under another group health plan as long as the new plan does not contain any exclusion or limitation with respect to your or your covered dependent’s preexisting condition;

d. the date your employer ceases to provide any group health plan for its employees. Notice will be given when you or your covered dependent becomes entitled to continue coverage under This Plan. You or your covered dependent will then have 60 days to elect to continue coverage. If you or your covered dependent do not notify your Employer within the 60-day election period, you will lose the option to elect continuation coverage. Each person who is eligible for COBRA coverage is entitled to make a separate election of COBRA coverage. Thus, a covered spouse (as defined by federal law) or dependent child (or parent on their behalf) is entitled to elect COBRA coverage even if the covered Employee does not make that election. However, covered Employees may elect COBRA coverage on behalf of their covered dependents. Any person who elects to continue coverage under This Plan must pay the full cost of that coverage (including both the share you now pay and the share your Employer now pays), plus any additional amounts permitted by law. Your payments for continued coverage must be made on the first day of each month in advance. If you do not elect COBRA coverage, your dental coverage will end. However, if you initially waive COBRA continuation coverage before the end of the 60-day election period, you may change your election by sending the completed election form to the Plan Administrator and postmarking it no later than the last day of the 60day election period. If You Elect Cobra If you choose COBRA coverage and pay the required premiums, you are entitled to coverage which, as of the time coverage is being provided, is identical to the coverage provided by the Employer to similarly situated active Employees, spouses or dependent children. This means that if the coverage for similarly situated Employees, spouses or dependent children changes, coverage will change for those who elected COBRA coverage.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 205


Duration Of Cobra Coverage The law requires that you be given the opportunity to maintain COBRA coverage for 36 months from the date coverage ends as a result of the qualifying event unless you lost coverage because of the covered Employee's termination of employment or reduction in hours. In that case, the required COBRA coverage period is 18 months from the date you lose coverage as a result of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. However, the 18-month coverage period may be extended under the following circumstances: Disability. If any person entitled to COBRA coverage (the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child) is determined by the Social Security Administration to have been disabled at any time during the first 60 days of COBRA coverage period and the disability lasts at least until the end of the 18 month period of continuation coverage, then all such persons entitled to elect COBRA coverage may be able to continue coverage for up to 29 months, rather than 18 months. In order to be eligible for the additional 11 months of COBRA coverage, the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child must notify the Employer's COBRA Administrator within 60 days of the latest of: (1) the Social Security Administration’s determination of disability; (2) the date of the qualifying event; (3) the date on which the covered Employee’s coverage initially was or will be lost; or (4) the date a person entitled to COBRA coverage is informed of this obligation by being provided the initial COBRA notice for the applicable group health plan. Written notice to the COBRA Administrator must be received before the end of the initial 18-month coverage period. A copy of the Social Security Administration’s determination must be provided to the COBRA Administrator. If these procedures are not followed, there will be no disability extension of COBRA. During the additional 11 months of coverage, your cost for that coverage will be approximately 50% higher than it was during the preceding 18 months. The additional 11 months of coverage provided on account of a disability will end as of the earlier of: 

The first day of the month beginning more than 30 days after a final determination by the Social Security Administration that the disability no longer exists; or

The last day of the 29th month of total coverage.

A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the COBRA Administrator within 30 days if the Social Security Administration determines that the disabled person is no longer disabled. This Plan reserves the right to retroactively cancel COBRA coverage, and will require reimbursement of all benefits paid for claims incurred after coverage terminates. Subsequent Qualifying Events. If, during the 18-month period of COBRA coverage (or within the 29-month maximum coverage period in the case of a disability extension), the covered Employee and the spouse divorce, the covered Employee dies, the covered Employee becomes entitled to Medicare, or a dependent ceases to be an eligible dependent under the terms of This Plan, then the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child(ren) (as applicable) may be able to extend COBRA coverage for up to 36 months from the date of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the Employer’s COBRA Administrator of the subsequent event no later than 60 days after its occurrence. If such notification is not given, the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child will not be entitled to the additional COBRA coverage. Premiums For Cobra Coverage A person entitled to COBRA coverage is entirely responsible for paying the premiums for COBRA coverage. The required payment for each continuation coverage period for each option will be described in the notice that is sent when an individual experiences a qualifying event.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 206


Initial Premium Payment If continuation of coverage is elected, payment for continuation coverage must be made no later than 45 days after the date of such election. (This is the date the election notice is post-marked, if mailed.) If the first payment for continuation coverage is not made in full by the 45th day after the date of election, continuation coverage under This Plan will end. A person entitled to COBRA coverage is responsible for making sure that the amount of the first payment is correct. After the first payment for continuation coverage, the amount due for each coverage period for each qualified beneficiary will be provided when coverage is elected. PLAN TERMINATION OR CHANGES Written notice of termination must be given to the Employer at least 31 days prior to the date such insurance will be terminated. Premiums are due and payable on the first day of each month for which insurance coverage is to be provided. If a payment is not received within 31 days after the due date, coverage will terminate as follows: a. with respect to coverages other than Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance on the earlier of the 31st day following the due date and the date requested in writing by the Employer, provided such request is made before such 31st day; and b. with respect to Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance -- on the later of the 31st day following the due date and the date MetLife's written notice of termination is received by the Employer. The Employer is liable to MetLife for payment of the pro-rata premium which accrues while any coverage remains in force. The group policy sets forth those situations in which the Employer and/or MetLife have the right to end the policy. The Employer reserves the right to change or terminate the Plan at any time. Therefore, there is no guarantee that you will be eligible for the benefits described herein for the duration of your employment. Any such action will be taken only after careful consideration. Your consent or the consent of your beneficiary is not required to terminate, modify, amend, or change the Plan. In the event Your coverage ends in accord with the Date Your Insurance Ends provision of Your certificate, you may still be eligible to receive benefits. The circumstances under which benefits are available are described in Your MetLife certificate. CONTRIBUTIONS You must make a contribution to the cost of Personal and Dependent Dental Insurance. The total premium rate for insurance provided under the Plan by MetLife is set by MetLife. PLAN YEAR The Plan's fiscal records are kept on a Plan year basis beginning each January 01 and ending on the following December 31. Qualified Domestic Relations Orders/Qualified Medical Child Support Orders You and your beneficiaries can obtain, without charge, from the Plan Administrator a copy of any procedures governing Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO) and Qualified Medical Child Support Orders (QMCSO).

Dental Benefits Claims Procedures for Presenting Claims for Dental Benefits All claim forms needed to file for benefits under the group insurance program can be obtained from the Employer who can also answer questions about the insurance benefits and to assist you or, if applicable, your beneficiary in filing claims. Dental claim forms can also be downloaded from www.metlife.com/dental. Routine Questions If there is any question about a claim payment, an explanation may be requested from MetLife by dialing 1800-275-4638. Claim Submission For claims for dental benefits, the claimant must complete the appropriate claim form and submit the required proof as described in the Filing a Claim section of the certificate. Claim forms must be submitted in accordance with the instructions on the claim form. Initial Determination After you submit a claim for dental benefits to MetLife, MetLife will review your claim and notify you of its decision to approve or deny your claim. Such notification will be provided to you within a 30 day period from the date you submitted your claim; except for situations requiring an extension of time of up to 15 days because of matters beyond the control of the Plan. If MetLife needs such an extension, MetLife will notify you prior to the expiration of the initial 30 day period, state the reason why the extension is needed, and state when it will make its determination. If an extension is needed because you did not provide sufficient information or filed an incomplete claim, the time from the date of MetLife's notice requesting further information and an extension until MetLife receives the requested information does not count toward the time period MetLife is allowed to notify you as to its claim decision. You will have 45 days to provide the requested information from the date you receive the notice requesting further information from MetLife. If MetLife denies your claim in whole or in part, the notification of the claims decision will state the reason why your claim was denied and reference the specific Plan provision(s) on which the denial is based. If the claim is denied because MetLife did not receive sufficient information, the claims decision will describe the additional information needed and explain why such information is needed. Further, if an internal rule, protocol, guideline or other criterion was relied upon in making the denial, the claims decision will state the rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria or indicate that such rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria was relied upon and that you may request a copy free of charge. Appealing the Initial Determination If MetLife denies your claim, you may take two appeals of the initial determination. Upon your written request, MetLife will provide you free of charge with copies of documents, records and other information relevant to your claim. You must submit your appeal to MetLife at the address indicated on the claim form within 180 days of receiving MetLife's decision. Appeals must be in writing and must include at least the following information: 

Name of Employee

Name of the Plan

Reference to the initial decision

Whether the appeal is the first or second appeal of the initial determination

An explanation why you are appealing the initial determination

As part of each appeal, you may submit any written comments, documents, records, or other information relating to your claim. ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 208


After MetLife receives your written request appealing the initial determination or determination on the first appeal, MetLife will conduct a full and fair review of your claim. Deference will not be given to initial denials, and MetLife's review will look at the claim anew. The review on appeal will take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information that you submit relating to your claim without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial determination. The person who will review your appeal will not be the same person as the person who made the initial decision to deny your claim. In addition, the person who is reviewing the appeal will not be a subordinate of the person who made the initial decision to deny your claim. If the initial denial is based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, MetLife will consult with a health care professional with appropriate training and experience in the field of dentistry involved in the judgment. This health care professional will not have consulted on the initial determination, and will not be a subordinate of any person who was consulted on the initial determination. MetLife will notify you in writing of its final decision within 30 days after MetLife's receipt of your written request for review, except that under special circumstances MetLife may have up to an additional 30 days to provide written notification of the final decision. If such an extension is required, MetLife will notify you prior to the expiration of the initial 30 day period, state the reason(s) why such an extension is needed, and state when it will make its determination. If MetLife denies the claim on appeal, MetLife will send you a final written decision that states the reason(s) why the claim you appealed is being denied and references any specific Plan provision(s) on which the denial is based. If an internal rule, protocol, guideline or other criterion was relied upon in denying the claim on appeal, the final written decision will state the rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria or indicate that such rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria was relied upon and that you may request a copy free of charge. Upon written request, MetLife will provide you free of charge with copies of documents, records and other information relevant to your claim. When the claim has been processed, you will be notified of the benefits paid. If any benefits have been denied, you will receive a written explanation. Urgent Care Claim Submission A small number of claims for dental benefits may be urgent care claims. Urgent care claims for dental benefits are claims for reimbursement of dental expenses for services which a dentist familiar with the dental condition determines would subject the patient to severe pain that cannot be adequately managed without the care or treatment that is the subject of the claim. Of course any such claim may always be submitted in accordance with the normal claim procedures. However your dentist may also submit such a claim to MetLife by telephoning MetLife and informing MetLife that the claim is an Urgent Care Claim. Urgent Care Claims are processed according to the procedures set out above, however once a claim for urgent care is submitted, MetLife will notify you of the determination on the claim as soon as possible, but no later than 72 hours after the claim was filed. If you or your covered dependent does not provide the claims administrator with enough information to decide the claim, MetLife will notify you within 24 hours after it receives the claim of the further information that is needed. You will have 48 hours to provide the information. If the needed information is provided, MetLife will then notify you of the claim decision within 48 hours after MetLife received the information. If the needed information is not provided, MetLife will notify you or your covered dependent of its decision within 120 hours after the claim was received. If your urgent care claim is denied but you receive the care, you may appeal the denial using the normal claim procedures. If your urgent care claim is denied and you do not receive the care, you can request an expedited appeal of your claim denial by phone or in writing. MetLife will provide you any necessary information to assist you in your appeal. MetLife will then notify you of its decision within 72 hours of your request in writing. However, MetLife may notify you by phone within the time frames above and then mail you a written notice.

Discretionary Authority of Plan Administrator and Other Plan Fiduciaries In carrying out their respective responsibilities under the Plan, the Plan administrator and other Plan fiduciaries shall have discretionary authority to interpret the terms of the Plan and to determine eligibility for and entitlement to Plan benefits in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Any interpretation or determination made pursuant to such discretionary authority shall be given full force and effect, unless it can be shown that the interpretation or determination was arbitrary and capricious. STATEMENT OF ERISA RIGHTS The following statement is required by federal law and regulation. As a participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all participants shall be entitled to: Receive Information About Your Plan and Benefits Examine, without charge, at the Plan administrator's office and at other specified locations, all Plan documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefit Security Administration. Obtain, upon written request to the Plan administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated summary plan description. The administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. Receive a summary of the Plan's annual financial report. The Plan administrator is required by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report. Continue Group Dental Plan Insurance Continue dental insurance for yourself, spouse or dependents if there is a loss of coverage under the Plan as a result of a qualifying event. You or your dependents may have to pay for such coverage. Review this summary plan description and the documents governing the Plan on the rules governing your COBRA continuation coverage rights. Prudent Actions by Plan Fiduciaries In addition to creating rights for Plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the employee benefit Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a welfare benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. Enforce Your Rights If your claim for a welfare benefit is denied or ignored in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of Plan documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Plan administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110.00 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 210


In addition, if you disagree with the Plan's decision or lack thereof concerning the qualified status of a domestic relations order or a medical child support order, you may file suit in Federal court. If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan's money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees; for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. Assistance with Your Questions If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration.

Uniformed Services Employment And Reemployment Rights Act This section describes the right that you may have to continue coverage for yourself and your covered dependents under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA). Continuation of Group Dental Insurance: If you take a leave from employment for “service in the uniformed services,” as that term is defined in USERRA, and as a consequence your dental insurance coverage under your employer’s group dental insurance policy ends, you may elect to continue dental insurance for yourself and your covered dependents, for a limited period of time, as described below. The law requires that your employer notify you of your rights, benefits and obligations under USERAA including instructions on how to elect to continue insurance, the amount and procedure for payment of premium. If permitted by USERRA, your employer may require that you elect to continue coverage within a period of time specified by your employer. You may be responsible for payment of the required premium to continue insurance. If your leave from employment for service in the uniformed services lasts less than 31 days, your required premium will be no more than the amount you were required to pay for dental insurance before the leave began; for a leave lasting 31 or more days, you may be required to pay up to 102% of the total dental insurance premium, including any amount that your employer was paying before the leave began. You and your covered dependents insurance that is continued pursuant to USERRA will end on the earliest of the following:  

the end of 24 consecutive months from the date your leave from employment for service in the uniformed services begins; or the day after the date on which you fail to apply for, or return to employment, in accordance with USERRA.

You and your covered dependent may become entitled to continuation of coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) while you have dental insurance coverage under your employer’s group dental insurance policy pursuant to USERRA. Contact your employer for more information.

NOTICE FOR MASSACHUSETTS RESIDENTS (Continued) The following provisions are required by Massachusetts law. Summary of Utilization Review Procedures MetLife reviews claims for evidence of need for certain dental procedures. These reviews are conducted by licensed dentists. If there is no evidence of need MetLife will deny benefits for a claim. MetLife also reviews claims to determine whether there exists a less costly treatment for a dental condition that is generally considered effective to treat the condition. If a less costly alternative treatment exists, MetLife will determine benefits based on the alternative treatment. If you want to determine the status of any such claim review, you can call MetLife at 1-800-275-4638. Summary of Quality Assurance Programs MetLife performs a check on certain credentials of any dentist applying to participate in MetLife’s Participating Dentist Program (PDP). If the credentials do not meet MetLife’s standards, for example if a dentist does not have a valid license, the dentist will not be permitted to participate in the PDP. MetLife does not interfere with the traditional relationship between PDP dentists and their patients, or any determination between the patient and dentist as to what the appropriate dental treatment may be. MetLife dental plans also allow you to choose between any dentist, whether they participate in the PDP or not. Therefore you should choose your dentist carefully, and you are responsible to be sure that your dentist delivers quality dental care. Involuntary Disenrollment Rate The involuntary disenrollment rate among insureds of MetLife is 0.

NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS OF UTAH Notice of Protection Provided by Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association This notice provides a brief summary of the Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association ("the Association") and the protection it provides for policyholders. This safety net was created under Utah law, which determines who and what is covered and the amounts of coverage. The Association was established to provide protection in the unlikely event that your life, health, or annuity insurance company becomes financially unable to meet its obligations and is taken over by its insurance regulatory agency. If this should happen, the Association will typically arrange to continue coverage and pay claims, in accordance with Utah law, with funding from assessments paid by other insurance companies. The basic protections provided by the Association are:  Life Insurance o $500,000 in death benefits o $200,000 in cash surrender or withdrawal values  Health Insurance o $500,000 in hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits o $500,000 in long-term care insurance benefits o $500,000 in disability income insurance benefits o $500,000 in other types of health insurance benefits  Annuities o $250,000 in withdrawal and cash values The maximum amount of protection for each individual, regardless of the number of policies or contracts, is $500,000. Special rules may apply with regard to hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits. Note: Certain policies and contracts may not be covered or fully covered. For example, coverage does not extend to any portion of a policy or contract that the insurer does not guarantee, such as certain investment additions to the account value of a variable life insurance policy or a variable annuity contract. Coverage is conditioned on residency in this state and there are substantial limitations and exclusions. For a complete description of coverage, consult Utah Code, Title 3 lA, Chapter 28. Insurance companies and agents are prohibited by Utah law to use the existence of the Association or its coverage to encourage you to purchase insurance. When selecting an insurance company, you should not rely on Association coverage. If there is any inconsistency between Utah law and this notice, Utah law will control. To learn more about the above protections, as well as protections relating to group contracts or retirement plans, please visit the Association's website at www.utlifega.org or contact: Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Assoc. 60 East South Temple, Suite 500 Salt Lake City UT 84111 (801) 320-9955

These 100 hundred (100) charges would be sorted from lowest to highest charged amount and numbered 1 through 100. The 90th percentile of charges is the charge that is equal to the charge numbered 90.

DENTAL INSURANCE If You or a Dependent incur a charge for a Covered Service, Proof of such service must be sent to Us. When We receive such Proof, We will review the claim and if We approve it, will pay the insurance in effect on the date that service was completed. This Dental Insurance gives You access to Dentists through the MetLife Preferred Dentist Program (PDP). Dentists participating in the PDP have agreed to limit their charge for a dental service to the Maximum Allowed Charge for such service. Under the PDP, We pay benefits for Covered Services performed by either In-Network Dentists or Out-of-Network Dentists. However, You may be able to reduce Your out-of-pocket costs by using an In-Network Dentist because Out-of-Network Dentists have not entered into an agreement with Us to limit their charges. You are always free to receive services from any Dentist. You do not need any authorization from Us to choose a Dentist. The PDP does not provide dental services. Whether or not benefits are available for a particular service, does not mean You should or should not receive the service. You and Your Dentist have the right and are responsible at all times for choosing the course of treatment and services to be performed. After services have been performed, We will determine the extent to which benefits, if any, are payable. When requesting a Covered Service from an In-Network Dentist, We recommend that You:  

identify Yourself as an insured in the Preferred Dentist Program; and confirm that the Dentist is currently an In-Network Dentist at the time that the Covered Service is performed.

The amount of the benefit will not be affected by whether or not You identify Yourself as a member in the Preferred Dentist Program. You can obtain a customized listing of MetLife’s In-Network Dentists either by calling 1-800-275-4638 or by visiting Our website at www.metlife.com/dental. BENEFIT AMOUNTS We will pay benefits in an amount equal to the Covered Percentage for charges incurred by You or a Dependent for a Covered Service as shown in the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS, subject to the conditions set forth in this certificate. In-Network If a Covered Service is performed by an In-Network Dentist, We will base the benefit on the Covered Percentage of the Maximum Allowed Charge. If an In-Network Dentist performs a Covered Service, You will be responsible for paying:  

the Deductible; and any other part of the Maximum Allowed Charge for which We do not pay benefits.

Out-of-Network If a Covered Service is performed by an Out-of-Network Dentist, We will base the benefit on the Covered Percentage of the Reasonable and Customary Charge. Out-of-Network Dentists may charge You more than the Reasonable and Customary Charge. If an Out-ofNetwork Dentist performs a Covered Service, You will be responsible for paying:   

the Deductible; any other part of the Reasonable and Customary Charge for which We do not pay benefits; and any amount in excess of the Reasonable and Customary Charge charged by the Out-of-Network Dentist.

GCERT2000 den/classic 44 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 261


DENTAL INSURANCE (CONTINUED) Maximum Benefit Amounts The Schedule of Benefits sets forth Maximum Benefit Amounts We will pay for Covered Services received InNetwork and Out-of-Network. We will never pay more than the greater of the In-Network Maximum Benefit Amount or the Out-of-Network Maximum Benefit Amount. For example, if a Covered Service is received Out-of-Network and We pay $300 in benefits for such service, $300 will be applied toward both the In-Network and the Out-of-Network Maximum Benefit Amounts applicable to such service. Deductibles The Deductible amounts are shown in the Schedule of Benefits. The Yearly Individual Deductible is the amount that You and each Dependent must pay for Covered Services to which such Deductible applies each Year before We will pay benefits for such Covered Services. We apply amounts used to satisfy Yearly Individual Deductibles to the Yearly Family Deductible. Once the Yearly Family Deductible is satisfied, no further Yearly Individual Deductibles are required to be met. The amount We apply toward satisfaction of a Deductible for a Covered Service is the amount We use to determine benefits for such service. The Deductible Amount will be applied based on when Dental insurance claims for Covered Services are processed by Us. The Deductible Amount will be applied to Covered Services in the order that Dental Insurance claims for Covered Services are processed by Us regardless of when a Covered Service is “incurred”. When several Covered Services are incurred on the same date and Dental Insurance benefits are claimed as part of the same claim, the Deductible Amount is applied based on the Covered Percentage applicable to each Covered Service. The Deductible Amount will be applied in the order of highest Covered Percentage to lowest Covered Percentage. Alternate Benefit If We determine that a service, less costly than the Covered Service the Dentist performed, could have been performed to treat a dental condition, We will pay benefits based upon the less costly service if such service:  would produce a professionally acceptable result under generally accepted dental standards; and  would qualify as a Covered Service. For example:   

when a filling and an inlay are both professionally acceptable methods for treating tooth decay or breakdown, We may base Our benefit determination upon the filling which is the less costly service; when a filling and a crown are both professionally acceptable methods for treating tooth decay or breakdown, We may base Our benefit determination upon the filling which is the less costly service; and when a partial denture and fixed bridgework are both professionally acceptable methods for replacing multiple missing teeth in an arch, We may base Our benefit determination upon the partial denture which is the less costly service.

If We pay benefits based upon a less costly service in accordance with this subsection, the Dentist may charge You or Your Dependent for the difference between the service that was performed and the less costly service. This is the case even if the service is performed by an In-Network Dentist. Certain comprehensive dental services have multiple steps associated with them. These steps can be completed at one time or during multiple sessions. For benefit purposes under this certificate, these separate steps of one service are considered to be part of the more comprehensive service. Even if the dentist submits separate bills, the total benefit payable for all related charges will be limited by the maximum benefit payable for the more comprehensive service. For example, root canal therapy includes x-rays, opening of the pulp chamber, additional x-rays, and filling of the chamber. Although these services may be performed in multiple sessions, they all constitute root canal therapy. Therefore, we will only pay benefits for the root canal therapy. GCERT2000 den/classic

DENTAL INSURANCE (CONTINUED) Orthodontic Covered Services Orthodontic treatment generally consists of initial placement of an appliance and periodic follow-up visits. The benefit payable for the initial placement will not exceed 20% of the Maximum Benefit Amount for Orthodontia. The benefit payable for the periodic follow-up visits will be based on the lower of:  the amount charged by the Dentist; and  the Maximum Benefit Amount for Orthodontia. The benefit payable for the periodic follow-up visits will be payable on a monthly basis during the scheduled course of the orthodontic treatment if:  Dental Insurance is in effect for the person receiving the orthodontic treatment; and  proof is given to Us that the orthodontic treatment is continuing. Benefits for Orthodontic Services Begun Prior to this Dental Insurance If the initial placement was made prior to this Dental Insurance being in effect, the benefit payable will be reduced by the portion attributable to the initial placement. If the periodic follow-up visits commenced prior to this Dental Insurance being in effect:  the number of months for which benefits are payable will be reduced by the number of months of treatment performed before this Dental Insurance was in effect; and  the total amount of the benefit payable for the periodic visits will be reduced proportionately. Pretreatment Estimate of Benefits If a planned dental service is expected to cost more than $300, You have the option of requesting a pretreatment estimate of benefits. The Dentist should submit a claim detailing the services to be performed and the amount to be charged. After We receive this information, We will provide You with an estimate of the Dental Insurance benefits available for the service. The estimate is not a guarantee of the amount We will pay. Under the Alternate Benefit provision, benefits may be based on the cost of a service other than the service that You choose. You are required to submit Proof on or after the date the dental service is completed in order for Us to pay a benefit for such service. The pretreatment estimate of benefits is only an estimate of benefits available for proposed dental services. You are not required to obtain a pretreatment estimate of benefits. As always, You or Your Dependent and the Dentist are responsible for choosing the services to be performed. Benefits We Will Pay After Insurance Ends We will pay benefits for a 31 day period after Your Insurance ends for the completion of installation of a prosthetic device if:  

the Dentist prepared the abutment teeth or made impressions before Your Insurance ends; and the device is installed within 31 days after the date the Insurance ends.

We will pay benefits for a 31 day period after Your Insurance ends for the completion of installation of a Cast Restoration if:  

the Dentist prepared the tooth for the Cast Restoration before Your Insurance ends; and the Cast Restoration is installed within 31 days after the date the Insurance ends.

We will pay benefits for a 31 day period after Your Insurance ends for completion of root canal therapy if:  

the Dentist opened into the pulp chamber before Your Insurance ends; and the treatment is finished within 31 days after the date the Insurance ends.

DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS COORDINATION OF THIS CONTRACT'S BENEFITS WITH OTHER BENEFITS The Coordination of Benefits (COB) provision applies when a person has health care coverage under more than one Plan. Plan is defined below. The order of benefit determination rules govern the order in which each Plan will pay a claim for benefits. The Plan that pays first is called the primary Plan. The primary Plan must pay benefits in accord with its policy terms without regard to the possibility that another Plan may cover some expenses. The Plan that pays after the primary Plan is the secondary Plan. The secondary Plan may reduce the benefits it pays so that payments from all Plans equal 100 percent of the total Allowable Expense. DEFINITIONS (a) A "Plan" is any of the following that provides benefits or services for dental care or treatment. If separate contracts are used to provide coordinated coverage for members of a group, the separate contracts are considered parts of the same Plan and there is no COB among those separate contracts. (1) Plan includes: group, blanket, or franchise accident and health insurance policies, excluding disability income protection coverage; individual and group health maintenance organization evidences of coverage; individual accident and health insurance policies; individual and group preferred provider benefit Plans and exclusive provider benefit Plans; group insurance contracts, individual insurance contracts and subscriber contracts that pay or reimburse for the cost of dental care; dental care components of individual and group long-term care contracts; limited benefit coverage that is not issued to supplement individual or group in-force policies; uninsured arrangements of group or group-type coverage; the dental benefits coverage in automobile insurance contracts; and Medicare or other governmental benefits, as permitted by law. (2) Plan does not include: disability income protection coverage; the Texas Health Insurance Pool; workers' compensation insurance coverage; hospital confinement indemnity coverage or other fixed indemnity coverage; specified disease coverage; supplemental benefit coverage; accident only coverage; specified accident coverage; school accident-type coverages that cover students for accidents only, including athletic injuries, either on a "24-hour" or a "to and from school" basis; benefits provided in long-term care insurance contracts for non-medical services, for example, personal care, adult day care, homemaker services, assistance with activities of daily living, respite care, and custodial care or for contracts that pay a fixed daily benefit without regard to expenses incurred or the receipt of services; Medicare supplement policies; a state Plan under Medicaid; a governmental Plan that, by law, provides benefits that are in excess of those of any private insurance Plan; or other nongovernmental Plan; or an individual accident and health insurance policy that is designed to fully integrate with other policies through a variable deductible. Each contract for coverage under (a)(1) or (a)(2) is a separate Plan. If a Plan has two parts and COB rules apply only to one of the two, each of the parts is treated as a separate Plan. (b) "This Plan" means, in a COB provision, the part of the contract providing the health care benefits to which the COB provision applies and which may be reduced because of the benefits of other Plans. Any other part of the contract providing health care benefits is separate from This Plan. A contract may apply one COB provision to certain benefits, such as dental benefits, coordinating only with like benefits, and may apply other separate COB provisions to coordinate other benefits. The order of benefit determination rules determine whether This Plan is a primary Plan or secondary Plan when the person has health care coverage under more than one Plan. When This Plan is primary, it determines payment for its benefits first before those of any other Plan without considering any other Plan's benefits. When This Plan is secondary, it determines its benefits after those of another Plan and may reduce the benefits it pays so that all Plan benefits equal 100 percent of the total allowable expense.

53 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 270


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (c) "Allowable expense" is a dental care expense, including deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments, that is covered at least in part by any Plan covering the person. When a Plan provides benefits in the form of services, the reasonable cash value of each service will be considered an allowable expense and a benefit paid. An expense that is not covered by any Plan covering the person is not an Allowable Expense. In addition, any expense that a provider by law in accordance with a contractual agreement is prohibited from charging a covered person is not an Allowable Expense. The following are examples of expenses that are not Allowable Expenses: (1) If a person is covered by two or more Plans that do not have negotiated fees and compute their benefit payments based on the usual and customary fees, allowed amounts, or relative value schedule reimbursement methodology, or other similar reimbursement methodology, any amount in excess of the highest reimbursement amount for a specific benefit is not an Allowable Expense.� (2) If a person is covered by two or more Plans that provide benefits or services on the basis of negotiated, an amount in excess of the highest of the negotiated fees is not an Allowable Expense. (3) If a person is covered by one Plan that does not have negotiated fees and that calculates its benefits or services based on usual and customary fees, allowed amounts, relative value schedule reimbursement methodology, or other similar reimbursement methodology, and another Plan that provides its benefits or services based on negotiated fees, the primary Plan's payment arrangement must be the Allowable Expense for all Plans. However, if the health care provider or physician has contracted with the secondary Plan to provide the benefit or service for a specific negotiated fee or payment amount that is different than the primary Plan's payment arrangement and if the health care provider's or physician's contract permits, the negotiated fee or payment must be the Allowable Expense used by the secondary Plan to determine its benefits. (4) The amount of any benefit reduction by the primary Plan because a covered person has failed to comply with the Plan provisions is not an Allowable Expense. Examples of these types of Plan provisions include second surgical opinions, prior authorization of admissions, and preferred provider arrangements. (d) "Allowed amount" is the amount of a billed charge that a carrier determines to be covered for services provided by a nonpreferred provider. The allowed amount includes both the carrier's payment and any applicable deductible, copayment, or coinsurance amounts for which the insured is responsible. (e) "Closed Panel Plan" is a Plan that provides dental care benefits to covered persons primarily in the form of services through a panel of health care providers and physicians that have contracted with or are employed by the Plan, and that excludes coverage for services provided by other health care providers and physicians, except in cases of emergency or referral by a panel member. (f) "Custodial Parent" is the parent with the right to designate the primary residence of a child by a court order under the Texas Family Code or other applicable law, or in the absence of a court order, is the parent with whom the child resides more than one-half of the calendar year, excluding any temporary visitation. When a person is covered by two or more Plans, the rules for determining the order of benefit payments are as follows:

GCERT2000 den/cob 10/15

54 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 271


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) ORDER OF BENEFIT DETERMINATION RULES (a) The primary Plan pays or provides its benefits according to its terms of coverage and without regard to the benefits under any other Plan. (b) Except as provided in (c), a Plan that does not contain a COB provision that is consistent with this policy is always primary unless the provisions of both Plans state that the complying Plan is primary. (c) Coverage that is obtained by virtue of membership in a group that is designed to supplement a part of a basic package of benefits and provides that this supplementary coverage must be excess to any other parts of the Plan provided by the contract holder. Examples of these types of situations are major medical coverages that are superimposed over base Plan hospital and surgical benefits, and insurance type coverages that are written in connection with a Closed Panel Plan to provide out-ofnetwork benefits. (d) A Plan may consider the benefits paid or provided by another Plan in calculating payment of its benefits only when it is secondary to that other Plan. (e) If the primary Plan is a Closed Panel Plan and the secondary Plan is not, the secondary Plan must pay or provide benefits as if it were the primary Plan when a covered person uses a noncontracted health care provider or physician, except for emergency services or authorized referrals that are paid or provided by the primary Plan. (f) When multiple contracts providing coordinated coverage are treated as a single Plan under this subchapter, this section applies only to the Plan as a whole, and coordination among the component contracts is governed by the terms of the contracts. If more than one carrier pays or provides benefits under the Plan, the carrier designated as primary within the Plan must be responsible for the Plan's compliance with this subchapter. (g) If a person is covered by more than one secondary Plan, the order of benefit determination rules of this subchapter decide the order in which secondary Plans' benefits are determined in relation to each other. Each secondary Plan must take into consideration the benefits of the primary Plan or Plans and the benefits of any other Plan that, under the rules of this contract, has its benefits determined before those of that secondary Plan. (h) Each Plan determines its order of benefits using the first of the following rules that apply. (1) Nondependent or Dependent. The Plan that covers the person other than as a dependent, for example as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree, is the primary Plan, and the Plan that covers the person as a dependent is the secondary Plan. However, if the person is a Medicare beneficiary and, as a result of federal law, Medicare is secondary to the Plan covering the person as a dependent and primary to the Plan covering the person as other than a dependent, then the order of benefits between the two Plans is reversed so that the Plan covering the person as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree is the secondary Plan and the other Plan is the primary Plan. An example includes a retired employee. (2) Dependent Child Covered Under More Than One Plan. Unless there is a court order stating otherwise, Plans covering a Dependent Child must determine the order of benefits using the following rules that apply. (A) For a Dependent Child whose parents are married or are living together, whether or not they have ever been married: (i) The Plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in the calendar year is the primary Plan; or (ii) If both parents have the same birthday, the Plan that has covered the parent the longest is the primary Plan.

GCERT2000 den/cob 10/15

55 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 272


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (B) For a Dependent Child whose parents are divorced, separated, or not living together, whether or not they have ever been married: (i) if a court order states that one of the parents is responsible for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage and the Plan of that parent has actual knowledge of those terms, that Plan is primary. This rule applies to Plan years commencing after the Plan is given notice of the court decree. (ii) if a court order states that both parents are responsible for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) must determine the order of benefits. (iii) if a court order states that the parents have joint custody without specifying that one parent has responsibility for the health care expenses or health care coverage of the Dependent Child, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) must determine the order of benefits. (iv) if there is no court order allocating responsibility for the Dependent Child's health care expenses or health care coverage, the order of benefits for the Child are as follows: (I) the Plan covering the custodial parent; (II) the Plan covering the spouse of the custodial parent; (III) the Plan covering the noncustodial parent; then (IV) the Plan covering the spouse of the noncustodial parent. (C) For a Dependent Child covered under more than one Plan of individuals who are not the parents of the Child, the provisions of (h)(2)(A) or (h)(2)(B) must determine the order of benefits as if those individuals were the parents of the Child. (D) For a Dependent Child who has coverage under either or both parents' Plans and has his or her own coverage as a dependent under a spouse's Plan, (h)(5) applies. (E) In the event the Dependent Child's coverage under the spouse's Plan began on the same date as the Dependent Child's coverage under either or both parents' Plans, the order of benefits must be determined by applying the birthday rule in (h)(2)(A) to the dependent Child's parent(s) and the dependent's spouse.] (3) Active, Retired, or Laid-off Employee. The Plan that covers a person as an active employee, that is, an employee who is neither laid off nor retired, is the Primary Plan. The Plan that covers that same person as a retired or laid-off employee is the secondary Plan. The same would hold true if a person is a dependent of an active employee and that same person is a dependent of a retired or laid-off employee. If the Plan that covers the same person as a retired or laid-off employee or as a dependent of a retired or laid-off employee does not have this rule, and as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule does not apply. This rule does not apply if (h)(1) can determine the order of benefits. (4) COBRA or State Continuation Coverage. If a person whose coverage is provided under COBRA or under a right of continuation provided by state or other federal law is covered under another Plan, the Plan covering the person as an employee, member, subscriber, or retiree or covering the person as a dependent of an employee, member, subscriber, or retiree is the primary Plan, and the COBRA, state, or other federal continuation coverage is the secondary Plan. If the other Plan does not have this rule, and as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule does not apply. This rule does not apply if (h)(1) can determine the order of benefits. (5) Longer or Shorter Length of Coverage. The Plan that has covered the person as an employee, member, policyholder, subscriber, or retiree longer is the primary Plan, and the Plan that has covered the person the shorter period is the secondary Plan.

GCERT2000 den/cob 10/15

56 ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 273


DENTAL INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (CONTINUED) (6) If the preceding rules do not determine the order of benefits, the allowable expenses must be shared equally between the Plans meeting the definition of Plan. In addition, This Plan will not pay more than it would have paid had it been the primary Plan. EFFECT ON THE BENEFITS OF THIS PLAN (a) When This Plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits so that the total benefits paid or provided by all Plans are not more than the total allowable expenses. In determining the amount to be paid for any claim, the secondary Plan will calculate the benefits it would have paid in the absence of other health care coverage and apply that calculated amount to any allowable expense under its Plan that is unpaid by the primary Plan. The secondary Plan may then reduce its payment by the amount so that, when combined with the amount paid by the primary Plan, the total benefits paid or provided by all Plans for the claim equal 100 percent of the total allowable expense for that claim. In addition, the secondary Plan must credit to its Plan deductible any amounts it would have credited to its deductible in the absence of other health care coverage. (b) If a covered person is enrolled in two or more closed panel Plans and if, for any reason, including the provision of service by a nonpanel provider, benefits are not payable by one closed panel Plan, COB must not apply between that Plan and other closed panel Plans. COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS CONCERNING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION Certain facts about health care coverage and services are needed to apply these COB rules and to determine benefits payable under This Plan and other Plans. We will comply with federal and state law concerning confidential information for the purpose of applying these rules and determining benefits payable under This Plan and other Plans covering the person claiming benefits. Each person claiming benefits under This Plan must give Us any facts it needs to apply those rules and determine benefits. FACILITY OF PAYMENT A payment made under another Plan may include an amount that should have been paid under This Plan. If it does, We may pay that amount to the organization that made that payment. That amount will then be treated as though it were a benefit paid under This Plan. We will not have to pay that amount again. The term "payment made" includes providing benefits in the form of services, in which case "payment made" means the reasonable cash value of the benefits provided in the form of services. RIGHT OF RECOVERY If the amount of the payments made by Us is more than it should have paid under this COB provision, it may recover the excess from one or more of the persons it has paid or for whom it has paid or any other person or organization that may be responsible for the benefits or services provided for the covered person. The "amount of the payments made" includes the reasonable cash value of any benefits provided in the form of services.

The following applies to employers with 20 or more employees that are not church or government plans: NOTICE OF YOUR RIGHT AND YOUR DEPENDENTS' RIGHT TO COBRA CONTINUATION COVERAGE COBRA is a federal law that requires most group health plans to give their employees and their dependents the opportunity to continue coverage when coverage is terminated due to certain specific events. If your employment terminates for any reason other than your gross misconduct, or if your hours worked are reduced so that your coverage terminates, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for a period of up to 18 months. If it is determined under the terms of the Social Security Act that You or your covered dependent is disabled within the first 60 days of COBRA coverage, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue your dental coverage under This Plan for an additional 11 months after the expiration of the 18 month period. In addition, if you should die, become divorced or legally separated, or become eligible for Medicare, your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months. Also, your covered children may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months after they no longer qualify as covered dependents under the terms of This Plan. Group health plans for employers with fewer than 20 employees, church plans, and plans established and maintained by the federal government are not subject to COBRA continuation requirements. During the continuation period, a child of yours that is (1) born; (2) adopted by you; or (3) placed with you for adoption, will be treated as if the child were a covered dependent at the time coverage was lost due to an event described above. This continuation will terminate on the earliest of: a. the end of the 18, 29 or 36 month continuation period, as the case may be; b. the date of expiration of the last period for which the required payment was made; c.

the date, after you or your covered dependent elects to continue coverage, that you or your covered dependent first becomes covered under another group health plan as long as the new plan does not contain any exclusion or limitation with respect to your or your covered dependent’s preexisting condition;

d. the date your employer ceases to provide any group health plan for its employees. Notice will be given when you or your covered dependent becomes entitled to continue coverage under This Plan. You or your covered dependent will then have 60 days to elect to continue coverage. If you or your covered dependent do not notify your Employer within the 60-day election period, you will lose the option to elect continuation coverage. Each person who is eligible for COBRA coverage is entitled to make a separate election of COBRA coverage. Thus, a covered spouse (as defined by federal law) or dependent child (or parent on their behalf) is entitled to elect COBRA coverage even if the covered Employee does not make that election. However, covered Employees may elect COBRA coverage on behalf of their covered dependents. Any person who elects to continue coverage under This Plan must pay the full cost of that coverage (including both the share you now pay and the share your Employer now pays), plus any additional amounts permitted by law. Your payments for continued coverage must be made on the first day of each month in advance. If you do not elect COBRA coverage, your dental coverage will end. However, if you initially waive COBRA continuation coverage before the end of the 60-day election period, you may change your election by sending the completed election form to the Plan Administrator and postmarking it no later than the last day of the 60day election period. If You Elect Cobra If you choose COBRA coverage and pay the required premiums, you are entitled to coverage which, as of the time coverage is being provided, is identical to the coverage provided by the Employer to similarly situated active Employees, spouses or dependent children. This means that if the coverage for similarly situated Employees, spouses or dependent children changes, coverage will change for those who elected COBRA coverage.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 282


Duration Of Cobra Coverage The law requires that you be given the opportunity to maintain COBRA coverage for 36 months from the date coverage ends as a result of the qualifying event unless you lost coverage because of the covered Employee's termination of employment or reduction in hours. In that case, the required COBRA coverage period is 18 months from the date you lose coverage as a result of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. However, the 18-month coverage period may be extended under the following circumstances: Disability. If any person entitled to COBRA coverage (the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child) is determined by the Social Security Administration to have been disabled at any time during the first 60 days of COBRA coverage period and the disability lasts at least until the end of the 18 month period of continuation coverage, then all such persons entitled to elect COBRA coverage may be able to continue coverage for up to 29 months, rather than 18 months. In order to be eligible for the additional 11 months of COBRA coverage, the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child must notify the Employer's COBRA Administrator within 60 days of the latest of: (1) the Social Security Administration’s determination of disability; (2) the date of the qualifying event; (3) the date on which the covered Employee’s coverage initially was or will be lost; or (4) the date a person entitled to COBRA coverage is informed of this obligation by being provided the initial COBRA notice for the applicable group health plan. Written notice to the COBRA Administrator must be received before the end of the initial 18-month coverage period. A copy of the Social Security Administration’s determination must be provided to the COBRA Administrator. If these procedures are not followed, there will be no disability extension of COBRA. During the additional 11 months of coverage, your cost for that coverage will be approximately 50% higher than it was during the preceding 18 months. The additional 11 months of coverage provided on account of a disability will end as of the earlier of: 

The first day of the month beginning more than 30 days after a final determination by the Social Security Administration that the disability no longer exists; or

The last day of the 29th month of total coverage.

A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the COBRA Administrator within 30 days if the Social Security Administration determines that the disabled person is no longer disabled. This Plan reserves the right to retroactively cancel COBRA coverage, and will require reimbursement of all benefits paid for claims incurred after coverage terminates. Subsequent Qualifying Events. If, during the 18-month period of COBRA coverage (or within the 29-month maximum coverage period in the case of a disability extension), the covered Employee and the spouse divorce, the covered Employee dies, the covered Employee becomes entitled to Medicare, or a dependent ceases to be an eligible dependent under the terms of This Plan, then the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child(ren) (as applicable) may be able to extend COBRA coverage for up to 36 months from the date of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the Employer’s COBRA Administrator of the subsequent event no later than 60 days after its occurrence. If such notification is not given, the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child will not be entitled to the additional COBRA coverage. Premiums For Cobra Coverage A person entitled to COBRA coverage is entirely responsible for paying the premiums for COBRA coverage. The required payment for each continuation coverage period for each option will be described in the notice that is sent when an individual experiences a qualifying event.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 283


Initial Premium Payment If continuation of coverage is elected, payment for continuation coverage must be made no later than 45 days after the date of such election. (This is the date the election notice is post-marked, if mailed.) If the first payment for continuation coverage is not made in full by the 45th day after the date of election, continuation coverage under This Plan will end. A person entitled to COBRA coverage is responsible for making sure that the amount of the first payment is correct. After the first payment for continuation coverage, the amount due for each coverage period for each qualified beneficiary will be provided when coverage is elected. PLAN TERMINATION OR CHANGES Written notice of termination must be given to the Employer at least 31 days prior to the date such insurance will be terminated. Premiums are due and payable on the first day of each month for which insurance coverage is to be provided. If a payment is not received within 31 days after the due date, coverage will terminate as follows: a. with respect to coverages other than Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance on the earlier of the 31st day following the due date and the date requested in writing by the Employer, provided such request is made before such 31st day; and b. with respect to Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance -- on the later of the 31st day following the due date and the date MetLife's written notice of termination is received by the Employer. The Employer is liable to MetLife for payment of the pro-rata premium which accrues while any coverage remains in force. The group policy sets forth those situations in which the Employer and/or MetLife have the right to end the policy. The Employer reserves the right to change or terminate the Plan at any time. Therefore, there is no guarantee that you will be eligible for the benefits described herein for the duration of your employment. Any such action will be taken only after careful consideration. Your consent or the consent of your beneficiary is not required to terminate, modify, amend, or change the Plan. In the event Your coverage ends in accord with the Date Your Insurance Ends provision of Your certificate, you may still be eligible to receive benefits. The circumstances under which benefits are available are described in Your MetLife certificate. CONTRIBUTIONS You must make a contribution to the cost of Personal and Dependent Dental Insurance. The total premium rate for insurance provided under the Plan by MetLife is set by MetLife. PLAN YEAR The Plan's fiscal records are kept on a Plan year basis beginning each January 01 and ending on the following December 31. Qualified Domestic Relations Orders/Qualified Medical Child Support Orders You and your beneficiaries can obtain, without charge, from the Plan Administrator a copy of any procedures governing Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO) and Qualified Medical Child Support Orders (QMCSO).

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 284


Dental Benefits Claims Procedures for Presenting Claims for Dental Benefits All claim forms needed to file for benefits under the group insurance program can be obtained from the Employer who can also answer questions about the insurance benefits and to assist you or, if applicable, your beneficiary in filing claims. Dental claim forms can also be downloaded from www.metlife.com/dental. Routine Questions If there is any question about a claim payment, an explanation may be requested from MetLife by dialing 1800-275-4638. Claim Submission For claims for dental benefits, the claimant must complete the appropriate claim form and submit the required proof as described in the Filing a Claim section of the certificate. Claim forms must be submitted in accordance with the instructions on the claim form. Initial Determination After you submit a claim for dental benefits to MetLife, MetLife will review your claim and notify you of its decision to approve or deny your claim. Such notification will be provided to you within a 30 day period from the date you submitted your claim; except for situations requiring an extension of time of up to 15 days because of matters beyond the control of the Plan. If MetLife needs such an extension, MetLife will notify you prior to the expiration of the initial 30 day period, state the reason why the extension is needed, and state when it will make its determination. If an extension is needed because you did not provide sufficient information or filed an incomplete claim, the time from the date of MetLife's notice requesting further information and an extension until MetLife receives the requested information does not count toward the time period MetLife is allowed to notify you as to its claim decision. You will have 45 days to provide the requested information from the date you receive the notice requesting further information from MetLife. If MetLife denies your claim in whole or in part, the notification of the claims decision will state the reason why your claim was denied and reference the specific Plan provision(s) on which the denial is based. If the claim is denied because MetLife did not receive sufficient information, the claims decision will describe the additional information needed and explain why such information is needed. Further, if an internal rule, protocol, guideline or other criterion was relied upon in making the denial, the claims decision will state the rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria or indicate that such rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria was relied upon and that you may request a copy free of charge. Appealing the Initial Determination If MetLife denies your claim, you may take two appeals of the initial determination. Upon your written request, MetLife will provide you free of charge with copies of documents, records and other information relevant to your claim. You must submit your appeal to MetLife at the address indicated on the claim form within 180 days of receiving MetLife's decision. Appeals must be in writing and must include at least the following information: 

Name of Employee

Name of the Plan

Reference to the initial decision

Whether the appeal is the first or second appeal of the initial determination

An explanation why you are appealing the initial determination

As part of each appeal, you may submit any written comments, documents, records, or other information relating to your claim. ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 285


After MetLife receives your written request appealing the initial determination or determination on the first appeal, MetLife will conduct a full and fair review of your claim. Deference will not be given to initial denials, and MetLife's review will look at the claim anew. The review on appeal will take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information that you submit relating to your claim without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial determination. The person who will review your appeal will not be the same person as the person who made the initial decision to deny your claim. In addition, the person who is reviewing the appeal will not be a subordinate of the person who made the initial decision to deny your claim. If the initial denial is based in whole or in part on a medical judgment, MetLife will consult with a health care professional with appropriate training and experience in the field of dentistry involved in the judgment. This health care professional will not have consulted on the initial determination, and will not be a subordinate of any person who was consulted on the initial determination. MetLife will notify you in writing of its final decision within 30 days after MetLife's receipt of your written request for review, except that under special circumstances MetLife may have up to an additional 30 days to provide written notification of the final decision. If such an extension is required, MetLife will notify you prior to the expiration of the initial 30 day period, state the reason(s) why such an extension is needed, and state when it will make its determination. If MetLife denies the claim on appeal, MetLife will send you a final written decision that states the reason(s) why the claim you appealed is being denied and references any specific Plan provision(s) on which the denial is based. If an internal rule, protocol, guideline or other criterion was relied upon in denying the claim on appeal, the final written decision will state the rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria or indicate that such rule, protocol, guideline or other criteria was relied upon and that you may request a copy free of charge. Upon written request, MetLife will provide you free of charge with copies of documents, records and other information relevant to your claim. When the claim has been processed, you will be notified of the benefits paid. If any benefits have been denied, you will receive a written explanation. Urgent Care Claim Submission A small number of claims for dental benefits may be urgent care claims. Urgent care claims for dental benefits are claims for reimbursement of dental expenses for services which a dentist familiar with the dental condition determines would subject the patient to severe pain that cannot be adequately managed without the care or treatment that is the subject of the claim. Of course any such claim may always be submitted in accordance with the normal claim procedures. However your dentist may also submit such a claim to MetLife by telephoning MetLife and informing MetLife that the claim is an Urgent Care Claim. Urgent Care Claims are processed according to the procedures set out above, however once a claim for urgent care is submitted, MetLife will notify you of the determination on the claim as soon as possible, but no later than 72 hours after the claim was filed. If you or your covered dependent does not provide the claims administrator with enough information to decide the claim, MetLife will notify you within 24 hours after it receives the claim of the further information that is needed. You will have 48 hours to provide the information. If the needed information is provided, MetLife will then notify you of the claim decision within 48 hours after MetLife received the information. If the needed information is not provided, MetLife will notify you or your covered dependent of its decision within 120 hours after the claim was received. If your urgent care claim is denied but you receive the care, you may appeal the denial using the normal claim procedures. If your urgent care claim is denied and you do not receive the care, you can request an expedited appeal of your claim denial by phone or in writing. MetLife will provide you any necessary information to assist you in your appeal. MetLife will then notify you of its decision within 72 hours of your request in writing. However, MetLife may notify you by phone within the time frames above and then mail you a written notice.

Discretionary Authority of Plan Administrator and Other Plan Fiduciaries In carrying out their respective responsibilities under the Plan, the Plan administrator and other Plan fiduciaries shall have discretionary authority to interpret the terms of the Plan and to determine eligibility for and entitlement to Plan benefits in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Any interpretation or determination made pursuant to such discretionary authority shall be given full force and effect, unless it can be shown that the interpretation or determination was arbitrary and capricious. STATEMENT OF ERISA RIGHTS The following statement is required by federal law and regulation. As a participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all participants shall be entitled to: Receive Information About Your Plan and Benefits Examine, without charge, at the Plan administrator's office and at other specified locations, all Plan documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefit Security Administration. Obtain, upon written request to the Plan administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated summary plan description. The administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. Receive a summary of the Plan's annual financial report. The Plan administrator is required by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report. Continue Group Dental Plan Insurance Continue dental insurance for yourself, spouse or dependents if there is a loss of coverage under the Plan as a result of a qualifying event. You or your dependents may have to pay for such coverage. Review this summary plan description and the documents governing the Plan on the rules governing your COBRA continuation coverage rights. Prudent Actions by Plan Fiduciaries In addition to creating rights for Plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the employee benefit Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a welfare benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. Enforce Your Rights If your claim for a welfare benefit is denied or ignored in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of Plan documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Plan administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110.00 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 287


In addition, if you disagree with the Plan's decision or lack thereof concerning the qualified status of a domestic relations order or a medical child support order, you may file suit in Federal court. If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan's money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees; for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. Assistance with Your Questions If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210.

Uniformed Services Employment And Reemployment Rights Act This section describes the right that you may have to continue coverage for yourself and your covered dependents under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA). Continuation of Group Dental Insurance: If you take a leave from employment for “service in the uniformed services,” as that term is defined in USERRA, and as a consequence your dental insurance coverage under your employer’s group dental insurance policy ends, you may elect to continue dental insurance for yourself and your covered dependents, for a limited period of time, as described below. The law requires that your employer notify you of your rights, benefits and obligations under USERAA including instructions on how to elect to continue insurance, the amount and procedure for payment of premium. If permitted by USERRA, your employer may require that you elect to continue coverage within a period of time specified by your employer. You may be responsible for payment of the required premium to continue insurance.

NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS OF UTAH Notice of Protection Provided by Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association This notice provides a brief summary of the Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Association ("the Association") and the protection it provides for policyholders. This safety net was created under Utah law, which determines who and what is covered and the amounts of coverage. The Association was established to provide protection in the unlikely event that your life, health, or annuity insurance company becomes financially unable to meet its obligations and is taken over by its insurance regulatory agency. If this should happen, the Association will typically arrange to continue coverage and pay claims, in accordance with Utah law, with funding from assessments paid by other insurance companies. The basic protections provided by the Association are: · Life Insurance o $500,000 in death benefits o $200,000 in cash surrender or withdrawal values · Health Insurance o $500,000 in hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits o $500,000 in long-term care insurance benefits o $500,000 in disability income insurance benefits o $500,000 in other types of health insurance benefits · Annuities o $250,000 in withdrawal and cash values The maximum amount of protection for each individual, regardless of the number of policies or contracts, is $500,000. Special rules may apply with regard to hospital, medical and surgical insurance benefits. Note: Certain policies and contracts may not be covered or fully covered. For example, coverage does not extend to any portion of a policy or contract that the insurer does not guarantee, such as certain investment additions to the account value of a variable life insurance policy or a variable annuity contract. Coverage is conditioned on residency in this state and there are substantial limitations and exclusions. For a complete description of coverage, consult Utah Code, Title 3 lA, Chapter 28. Insurance companies and agents are prohibited by Utah law to use the existence of the Association or its coverage to encourage you to purchase insurance. When selecting an insurance company, you should not rely on Association coverage. If there is any inconsistency between Utah law and this notice, Utah law will control. To learn more about the above protections, as well as protections relating to group contracts or retirement plans, please visit the Association's website at www.utlifega.org or contact: Utah Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Assoc. 60 East South Temple, Suite 500 Salt Lake City UT 84111 (801) 320-9955

VISION INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS When You or a Dependent incur charges for Covered Services and Materials, there may be other Plans, as defined below, that also provide benefits for those same charges. In that case, We may reduce what We pay based on what the other Plans pay. This Coordination of Benefits section explains how and when We do this. DEFINITIONS In this section, the terms set forth below have the following meanings: Allowable Expense means a necessary vision expense for which both of the following are true: ·

a Covered Person must pay it, and

·

it is at least partly covered by one or more of the Plans that provide benefits to the Covered Person.

If a Plan provides fixed benefits for specified events or conditions (instead of benefits based on expenses incurred) such benefits are Allowable Expenses. If a Plan provides benefits in the form of services, We treat the reasonable cash value of each service performed as both an Allowable Expense and a benefit paid by that Plan. The term does not include: ·

expenses for services performed because of a Job-Related Injury or Sickness;

·

any amount of expenses in excess of the higher reasonable and customary fee for a service, if two or more Plans compute their benefit payments on the basis of reasonable and customary fees;

·

any amount of expenses in excess of the higher negotiated fee for a service, if two or more Plans compute their benefit payments on the basis of negotiated fees; and

·

any amount of benefits that a Primary Plan does not pay because the covered person fails to comply with the Primary Plan’s managed care or utilization review provisions, these include provisions requiring: · · · ·

second surgical opinions; pre-certification of services; use of providers in a Plan’s network of providers; or any other similar provisions.

If You or a Dependent are also covered under an HMO plan, We will not use this provision to refuse to pay benefits because an HMO member has elected to have vision services provided by a non-HMO provider and the HMO's contract does not require the HMO to pay for providing those services. Claim Determination Period means a calendar year or plan year. A Claim Determination Period for any Covered Person will not include periods of time during which that person is not covered under This Plan. Custodial Parent means a Parent awarded custody, other than joint custody, by a court decree. In the absence of a court decree, it means the Parent with whom the child resides more than half of the Year without regard to any temporary visitation. HMO means a Health Maintenance Organization or Vision Health Maintenance Organization. Job-Related Injury or Sickness means any injury or sickness: ·

for which You are entitled to benefits under a workers’ compensation or similar law, or any arrangement that provides for similar compensation; or

·

arising out of employment for wage or profit.

Parent means a person who covers a child as a dependent under a Plan.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 337


VISION INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (continued) Plan means any of the following if it provides benefits or services for an Allowable Expense: ·

a group insurance plan;

·

an HMO;

·

a blanket plan;

·

uninsured arrangements of group or group type coverage;

·

a group practice plan;

·

a group service plan;

·

a group prepayment plan;

·

any other plan that covers people as a group;

·

any other coverage required or provided by any law or any governmental program, except Medicaid.

The term does not include any of the following: ·

individual or family insurance or subscriber contracts;

·

individual or family coverage through closed panel Plans or other prepayment, group practice or individual practice Plans;

·

hospital indemnity coverage;

·

a school blanket plan that only provides accident-type coverage on a 24 hour basis, or a "to and from school basis," to students in a grammar school, high school or college;

·

disability income protection coverage;

·

accident only coverage;

·

specified disease or specified accident coverage;

·

nursing home or long term care coverage; or

·

any government program or coverage if, by state or Federal law, its benefits are excess to those of any private insurance plan or other non-government plan.

The provisions of This Plan which limit benefits based on benefits or services provided under Plans which the employer, Policyholder (or an affiliate) contributes to or sponsors will not be affected by these Coordination of Benefits provisions. Each policy, contract or other arrangement for benefits is a separate Plan. If part of a Plan reserves the right to reduce what it pays based on benefits or services provided by other Plans, that part will be treated separately from any parts which do not. This Plan means the vision benefits described in this certificate, except for any provisions in this certificate that limit insurance based on benefits for services provided under plans which the Policyholder (or an affiliate) contributes to or sponsors. Primary Plan means a Plan that pays its benefits first under the “Rules to Decide Which Plan Is Primary” section. A Primary Plan pays benefits as if the Secondary Plans do not exist. Secondary Plan means a Plan that is not a Primary Plan. A Secondary Plan may reduce its benefits by amounts payable by the Primary Plan. If there are more than two Plans that provide coverage, a Plan may be Primary to some plans, and Secondary to others.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 338


VISION INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (continued) RULES TO DECIDE WHICH PLAN IS PRIMARY When more than one Plan covers the person for whom Allowable Expenses were incurred, We determine which plan is primary by applying the rules in this section. When there is a basis for claim under This Plan and another Plan, This Plan is Secondary unless: ·

the other Plan has rules coordinating its benefits with those of This Plan; and

·

this Plan is primary under This Plan’s rules.

The first rule below which will allow Us to determine which Plan is Primary is the rule that We will use. Dependent or Non-Dependent: A Plan that covers a person other than as a dependent (for example, as an employee, member, subscriber, or retiree) is Primary and shall pay its benefits before a Plan that covers the person as a dependent; except that if the person is a Medicare beneficiary and, as a result of federal law or regulations, Medicare is: ·

Secondary to the Plan covering the person as a dependent; and

·

Primary to the Plan covering the person as other than a dependent (e.g., a retired employee),

then the order of benefits between the two Plans is reversed and the Plan that covers the person as a dependent is Primary. Child Covered Under More Than One Plan – Court Decree: When This Plan and another Plan cover the same Child as the Dependent of two or more Parents, and the specific terms of a court decree state that one of the Parents must provide health coverage or pay for the Child’s health care expenses, that Parent’s Plan is Primary if the Plan has actual knowledge of those terms. This rule applies to Claim Determination Periods that start after the Plan is given notice of the court decree. Child Covered Under More Than One Plan – The Birthday Rule: When This Plan and another Plan cover the same Child as the Dependent of two or more Parents, the Primary Plan is the Plan of the Parent whose birthday falls earlier in the Year if: ·

the Parents are married; or

·

the Parents are not separated (whether or not they have ever married); or

·

a court decree awards joint custody without specifying which Parent must provide health coverage.

If both Parents have the same birthday, the Plan that covered either of the Parents longer is the Primary Plan. However, if the other Plan does not have this rule, but instead has a rule based on the gender of the parent, and if as a result the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, the rule in the other Plan will determine the order of benefits. Child Covered Under More than One Plan – Custodial Parent: When This Plan and another Plan cover the same Child as the Dependent of two or more Parents, if the Parents are not married, or are separated (whether or not they ever married), or are divorced, the Primary Plan is: ·

the Plan of the Custodial Parent; then

·

the Plan of the spouse of the Custodial Parent; then

·

the Plan of the non-custodial Parent; and then

·

the Plan of the spouse of the non-custodial Parent.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 339


VISION INSURANCE: COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (continued) Active or Inactive Employee: A Plan that covers a person as an employee who is neither laid off nor retired is Primary to a Plan that covers the person as a laid-off or retired employee (or as that person’s Dependent). If the other Plan does not have this rule and, if as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule is ignored. Continuation Coverage: The Plan that covers a person as an active employee, member or subscriber (or as that employee’s Dependent) is Primary to a Plan that covers that person under a right of continuation pursuant to federal law (e.g., COBRA) or state law. If the Plan that covers the person has not adopted this rule, and if, as a result, the Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule shall not apply. Longer/Shorter Time Covered: If none of the above rules determine which Plan is Primary, the Plan that has covered the person for the longer time shall be Primary to a Plan that has covered the person for a shorter time. No Rules Apply: If none of the above rules determine which Plan is Primary, the Allowable Expenses shall be shared equally between all the Plans. In no event will This Plan pay more than it would if it were Primary. EFFECT ON BENEFITS OF THIS PLAN If This Plan is Secondary, when the total Allowable Expenses incurred by a covered person in any Claim Determination Period are less than the sum of: ·

the benefits that would be payable under This Plan without applying this Coordination of Benefits provision; and

·

the benefits that would be payable under all other Plans without applying Coordination of Benefits or similar provisions;

then We will reduce the benefits that would otherwise be payable under This Plan. The sum of these reduced benefits plus all benefits payable for such Allowable Expenses under all other Plans will not exceed the total of the Allowable Expenses. Benefits payable under all other Plans include all benefits that would be payable if the proper claims had been made on time. FACILITY OF PAYMENT A payment made under another Plan may include an amount which should have been paid under This Plan. If it does, We may pay that amount to the organization which made that payment. That amount will then be treated as though it were a benefit paid under This Plan. We will not have to pay that amount again. The term “payment made” includes benefits provided in the form of services, in which case We may pay the reasonable cash value of the benefits provided in the form of services. RIGHT OF RECOVERY If the amount We pay is more than We should have paid under this Coordination of Benefits provision, We may recover the excess from one or more of: ·

the person We have paid or for whom We have paid;

·

insurance companies; or

·

other organizations.

The amount of the payment includes the reasonable cash value of any benefits provided in the form of services.

The following applies to employers with 20 or more employees that are not church or government plans: NOTICE OF YOUR RIGHT AND YOUR DEPENDENTS' RIGHT TO COBRA CONTINUATION COVERAGE COBRA is a federal law that requires most group health plans to give their employees and their dependents the opportunity to continue coverage when coverage is terminated due to certain specific events. If your employment terminates for any reason other than your gross misconduct, or if your hours worked are reduced so that your coverage terminates, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for a period of up to 18 months. If it is determined under the terms of the Social Security Act that You or your covered dependent is disabled within the first 60 days of COBRA coverage, you and your covered dependents may be able to continue your vision coverage under This Plan for an additional 11 months after the expiration of the 18 month period. In addition, if you should die, become divorced or legally separated, or become eligible for Medicare, your covered dependents may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months. Also, your covered children may be able to continue coverage under This Plan for up to 36 months after they no longer qualify as covered dependents under the terms of This Plan. Group health plans for employers with fewer than 20 employees, church plans, and plans established and maintained by the federal government are not subject to COBRA continuation requirements. During the continuation period, a child of yours that is (1) born; (2) adopted by you; or (3) placed with you for adoption, will be treated as if the child were a covered dependent at the time coverage was lost due to an event described above. This continuation will terminate on the earliest of: a. the end of the 18, 29 or 36 month continuation period, as the case may be; b. the date of expiration of the last period for which the required payment was made; c.

the date, after you or your covered dependent elects to continue coverage, that you or your covered dependent first becomes covered under another group health plan as long as the new plan does not contain any exclusion or limitation with respect to your or your covered dependent’s preexisting condition;

d. the date your employer ceases to provide any group health plan for its employees. Notice will be given when you or your covered dependent becomes entitled to continue coverage under This Plan. You or your covered dependent will then have 60 days to elect to continue coverage. If you or your covered dependent do not notify your Employer within the 60-day election period, you will lose the option to elect continuation coverage. Each person who is eligible for COBRA coverage is entitled to make a separate election of COBRA coverage. Thus, a covered spouse (as defined by federal law) or dependent child (or parent on their behalf) is entitled to elect COBRA coverage even if the covered Employee does not make that election. However, covered Employees may elect COBRA coverage on behalf of their covered dependents. Any person who elects to continue coverage under This Plan must pay the full cost of that coverage (including both the share you now pay and the share your Employer now pays), plus any additional amounts permitted by law. Your payments for continued coverage must be made on the first day of each month in advance.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 346


If you do not elect COBRA coverage, your vision coverage will end. However, if you initially waive COBRA continuation coverage before the end of the 60-day election period, you may change your election by sending the completed election form to the Plan Administrator and postmarking it no later than the last day of the 60-day election period. If You Elect Cobra If you choose COBRA coverage and pay the required premiums, you are entitled to coverage which, as of the time coverage is being provided, is identical to the coverage provided by the Employer to similarly situated active Employees, spouses or dependent children. This means that if the coverage for similarly situated Employees spouses or dependent children changes, coverage will change for those who elected COBRA coverage. Duration Of Cobra Coverage The law requires that you be given the opportunity to maintain COBRA coverage for 36 months from the date coverage ends as a result of the qualifying event unless you lost coverage because of the covered Employee's termination of employment or reduction in hours. In that case, the required COBRA coverage period is 18 months from the date you lose coverage as a result of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. However, the 18-month coverage period may be extended under the following circumstances: Disability. If any person entitled to COBRA coverage (the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child) is determined by the Social Security Administration to have been disabled at any time during the first 60 days of COBRA coverage period and the disability lasts at least until the end of the 18 month period of continuation coverage, then all such persons entitled to elect COBRA coverage may be able to continue coverage for up to 29 months, rather than 18 months. In order to be eligible for the additional 11 months of COBRA coverage, the covered Employee, covered spouse or covered dependent child must notify the Employer's COBRA Administrator within 60 days of the latest of: (1) the Social Security Administration’s determination of disability; (2) the date of the qualifying event; (3) the date on which the covered Employee’s coverage initially was or will be lost; or (4) the date a person entitled to COBRA coverage is informed of this obligation by being provided the initial COBRA notice for the applicable group health plan. Written notice to the COBRA Administrator must be received before the end of the initial 18-month coverage period. A copy of the Social Security Administration’s determination must be provided to the COBRA Administrator. If these procedures are not followed, there will be no disability extension of COBRA. During the additional 11 months of coverage, your cost for that coverage will be approximately 50% higher than it was during the preceding 18 months. The additional 11 months of coverage provided on account of a disability will end as of the earlier of: ·

The first day of the month beginning more than 30 days after a final determination by the Social Security Administration that the disability no longer exists; or

·

The last day of the 29th month of total coverage.

A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the COBRA Administrator within 30 days if the Social Security Administration determines that the disabled person is no longer disabled. This Plan reserves the right to retroactively cancel COBRA coverage, and will require reimbursement of all benefits paid for claims incurred after coverage terminates.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 347


Subsequent Qualifying Events. If, during the 18-month period of COBRA coverage (or within the 29month maximum coverage period in the case of a disability extension), the covered Employee and the spouse divorce, the covered Employee dies, the covered Employee becomes entitled to Medicare, or a dependent ceases to be an eligible dependent under the terms of This Plan, then the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child(ren) (as applicable) may be able to extend COBRA coverage for up to 36 months from the date of the termination of employment or reduction in hours. A person entitled to COBRA coverage must notify the Employer’s COBRA Administrator of the subsequent event no later than 60 days after its occurrence. If such notification is not given, the covered spouse and/or covered dependent child will not be entitled to the additional COBRA coverage. Premiums For Cobra Coverage A person entitled to COBRA coverage is entirely responsible for paying the premiums for COBRA coverage. The required payment for each continuation coverage period for each option will be described in the notice that is sent when an individual experiences a qualifying event. Initial Premium Payment If continuation of coverage is elected, payment for continuation coverage must be made no later than 45 days after the date of such election. (This is the date the election notice is post-marked, if mailed.) If the first payment for continuation coverage is not made in full by the 45th day after the date of election, continuation coverage under This Plan will end. A person entitled to COBRA coverage is responsible for making sure that the amount of the first payment is correct. After the first payment for continuation coverage, the amount due for each coverage period for each qualified beneficiary will be provided when coverage is elected. PLAN TERMINATION OR CHANGES Written notice of termination must be given to the Employer at least 31 days prior to the date such insurance will be terminated. Premiums are due and payable on the first day of each month for which insurance coverage is to be provided. If a payment is not received within 31 days after the due date, coverage will terminate as follows: a. with respect to coverages other than Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance - on the earlier of the 31st day following the due date and the date requested in writing by the Employer, provided such request is made before such 31st day; and b. with respect to Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment Insurance -- on the later of the 31st day following the due date and the date MetLife's written notice of termination is received by the Employer. The Employer is liable to MetLife for payment of the pro-rata premium which accrues while any coverage remains in force. The group policy sets forth those situations in which the Employer and/or MetLife have the right to end the policy. The Employer reserves the right to change or terminate the Plan at any time. Therefore, there is no guarantee that you will be eligible for the benefits described herein for the duration of your employment. Any such action will be taken only after careful consideration.

Insurance Fraud: Any Covered Person who intends to defraud, knowingly facilitates a fraud, submits a claim containing false or deceptive information, or who commits any other similar act as defined by applicable state or federal law, may be guilty of insurance fraud. Such an act is grounds for immediate termination of the coverage under this Policy of the Covered Person committing such fraud. Discretionary Authority of Plan Administrator and Other Plan Fiduciaries In carrying out their respective responsibilities under the Plan, the Plan administrator and other Plan fiduciaries shall have discretionary authority to interpret the terms of the Plan and to determine eligibility for and entitlement to Plan benefits in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Any interpretation or determination made pursuant to such discretionary authority shall be given full force and effect, unless it can be shown that the interpretation or determination was arbitrary and capricious. STATEMENT OF ERISA RIGHTS The following statement is required by federal law and regulation. As a participant in the Plan, you are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). ERISA provides that all participants shall be entitled to: Receive Information About Your Plan and Benefits Examine, without charge, at the Plan administrator's office and at other specified locations, all Plan documents governing the Plan, including insurance contracts and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Public Disclosure Room of the Employee Benefit Security Administration. Obtain, upon written request to the Plan administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) and updated summary plan description. The administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. Receive a summary of the Plan's annual financial report. The Plan administrator is required by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report. Continue Group Vision Plan Insurance Continue vision insurance for yourself, spouse or dependents if there is a loss of coverage under the Plan as a result of a qualifying event. You or your dependents may have to pay for such coverage. Review this summary plan description and the documents governing the Plan on the rules governing your COBRA continuation coverage rights.

ASPEN 2018 BENEFITS :: 350


Prudent Actions by Plan Fiduciaries In addition to creating rights for Plan participants, ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the employee benefit Plan. The people who operate your Plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a welfare benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. Enforce Your Rights If your claim for a welfare benefit is denied or ignored in whole or in part, you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of Plan documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive them within 30 days, you may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Plan administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110.00 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the administrator. If you have a claim for benefits which is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or Federal court. In addition, if you disagree with the Plan's decision or lack thereof concerning the qualified status of a domestic relations order or a medical child support order, you may file suit in Federal court. If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan's money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a Federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees; for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. Assistance with Your Questions If you have any questions about your Plan, you should contact the Plan administrator. If you have any questions about this statement or about your rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the Plan administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone directory or the Division of Technical Assistance and Inquiries, Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA by calling the publications hotline of the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration.

Uniformed Services Employment And Reemployment Rights Act This section describes the right that you may have to continue coverage for yourself and your covered dependents under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA). Continuation of Group Vision Insurance: If you take a leave from employment for “service in the uniformed services,” as that term is defined in USERRA, and as a consequence your vision insurance coverage under your employer’s group vision insurance policy ends, you may elect to continue vision insurance for yourself and your covered dependents, for a limited period of time, as described below. The law requires that your employer notify you of your rights, benefits and obligations under USERAA including instructions on how to elect to continue insurance, the amount and procedure for payment of premium. If permitted by USERRA, your employer may require that you elect to continue coverage within a period of time specified by your employer. You may be responsible for payment of the required premium to continue insurance. If your leave from employment for service in the uniformed services lasts less than 31 days, your required premium will be no more than the amount you were required to pay for vision insurance before the leave began; for a leave lasting 31 or more days, you may be required to pay up to 102% of the total Vision insurance premium, including any amount that your employer was paying before the leave began. You and your covered dependents insurance that is continued pursuant to USERRA will end on the earliest of the following: · ·

the end of 24 consecutive months from the date your leave from employment for service in the uniformed services begins; or the day after the date on which you fail to apply for, or return to employment, in accordance with USERRA.

You and your covered dependent may become entitled to continuation of coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) while you have Vision insurance coverage under your employer’s group vision insurance policy pursuant to USERRA. Contact your employer for more information.
