Everyone s needs are unique. IMPAQ offers a variety of benefits and options so you may choose what works best for you and your family. A number of these benefits are provided at no cost to you. We created this guide to help you make informed decisions. It is not a complete detailed description, nor is it a contract of employment or a guarantee of benefits. More detailed information for each benefit is contained in the relevant insurance policy. Great care has been taken to ensure that this guide is accurate. However, oversights can occur or condensed summaries can be misinterpreted. If there is a difference between this overview and the SPD or official plan documents governing the plan, the plan documents will be followed. IMPAQ International reserves the right to amend or terminate the program in whole or in part at any time. 3

10 FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (FSA) Flexible Spending Accounts allow you to pay for goods and services you already use with your pre-tax dollars. This can reduce your eligible health care and dependent care expenses by as much as 30%. These plans are administered by CoreFlex To make the most of these benefits, it s important to understand the following: Plan year: The plan year for our Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) are 6/1/15 to 5/31/16. Open enrollment: You must re-enroll in these benefits each year during Open Enrollment. Grace period: For the Healthcare FSA plan year June, 2015 through May 31, 2016, you will now have a grace period to continue spending any remaining FSA balance for 75 days after the end of the plan year. Funds not claimed by the end of the 75-day grace period are forfeited. During the grace period all claims will be paid from your prior plan year funds until they are diminished. Therefore, you should wait to submit claims dated during the grace period until you are sure you have no remaining claims to submit from the prior plan year. There is no grace period for a Dependent Care FSA. Run-out period: The run out period to submit eligible claims continues to be 90 day following the end of the plan year for both FSA plans. Funds not claimed by the end of the 90-day run out period are forfeited. Reimbursement: Your FSA may be used to cover your medical plan deductible that begins on June 1, 2015 through May 31, Employees will have three ways to pay and/or receive reimbursement for claims: Benny Card - the debit card is used to pay for healthcare expenses upfront at the point of purchase. The card can be used at any location that accepts MasterCard. Remember to keep receipts for at least seven years to meet IRS requirements. Note: You may be asked by CoreSource to substantiate your claim. If you fail to substantiate the claim after 90 days, the vendor will terminate your card access until you do substantiate the claim. Submit a reimbursement form with receipts. CoreFlex will review and if approved will provide you with a reimbursement check or you can set up direct deposit. HEALTH CARE FSA UP TO $2,550 ANNUALLY This account allows you to pay for qualifying out-of-pocket health care expenses for you and your dependents. The amount you choose to contribute will be deducted from your pay in equal installments throughout the year. You may not change this amount unless you have a qualifying life event (see Eligibility for Benefits).

11 DISABILITY SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE Disability insurance replaces a percentage of your income during extended periods of illness or injury that prevent you from performing your regular work. These benefits will coordinate with any state disability programs in which you are automatically enrolled (e.g., SDI in California, HI, NJ, NY, & RI). There is no cost to employees for Short Term Disability or Long Term Disability coverages. Employees can elect to prepay the taxes on the Short- and Long-Term Disability benefit with a post-tax deduction PLAN PROVISIONS Your benefit Benefit period When benefits begin Definition of disability SHORT TERM DISABILITY 67% of your weekly pre-disability earnings, up to a maximum of $1,000 per week.

12 LIFE AND AD&D INSURANCE BASIC Basic Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) coverage is provided at no cost to eligible employees. Life insurance provides some financial security to your dependents in the event of your death. If you have a qualifying accident which results in the loss of limb(s) or eyesight, you will receive a percentage of the AD&D amount. Carrier insures these benefits. IRS regulations allow employers to provide up to $50,000 of life insurance to employees on a tax-free basis. The premium paid on behalf of employees for coverage amounts in excess of $50,000 will be added to the employee s gross income for tax purposes. This is referred to as imputed income PLAN PROVISIONS Death benefit AD&D benefit Reductions to the benefits if you are working Accelerated benefit Conversion Beneficiary designation BASIC LIFE AND AD&D INSURANCE One times your basic earnings rounded up to the next $1,000, to a maximum benefit of $150,000.

15 YOUR RIGHTS COORDINATION OF BENEFITS (COB) Coordination of Benefits applies if you or your covered dependents are insured under more than one health insurance plan. The plans coordinate with each other on payments so that there are no duplicate payments for the same medical service. The order in which payments are made is determined as follows: The plan that covers the patient as an employee (nondependent) is considered the primary plan, initially responsible for payment. The plan that covers the patient as a dependent is the secondary plan. When a dependent child is covered by the plan of more than one parent, (unless court ordered) generally the plan of the parent whose birthday falls earlier in the year is considered the primary plan. HIPAA PRIVACY We are required by law to maintain the privacy of your Protected Health Information (PHI) and to provide individuals with notice of our legal duties and privacy practices with respect to PHI. The HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices for the Company Employee Health Plans was effective April 14, 2004 and remains in effect. NEWBORNS AND MOTHERS HEALTH PROTECTION ACT Federal law (Newborns and Mothers Health Protection Act of 1996) prohibits the plan from limiting a mother s or newborn s length of hospital stay to less than 48 hours for a normal delivery, 96 hours for a cesarean delivery or from requiring the provider to obtain preauthorization for a stay of 48 hours or 96 hours, as appropriate. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the attending provider, after consultation with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours for normal delivery or 96 hours for cesarean delivery. THE WOMEN S HEALTH AND CANCER RIGHTS ACT 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. If you would like more information on WHCRA benefits, call your plan administrator. COBRA Under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1985, COBRA qualified beneficiaries (QBs) generally are eligible for group coverage for a maximum of 18 months for qualifying events due to employment termination or reduction of hours to 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. COBRA coverage is not extended for those terminated for gross misconduct. Upon termination, or other COBRA qualifying event, the former employee and any other QBs will receive COBRA enrollment information. Qualifying events for employees include voluntary/ involuntary termination of employment, and the reduction in the number of hours of employment. Qualifying events for spouses or dependent children include those events above, plus, the covered employee s becoming entitled to Medicare; divorce or legal separation of the covered employee; death of the covered employee; and the loss of dependent status under the plan rules. If a QB chooses to continue group benefits under COBRA, they must complete an enrollment form and return it to Corporate Services Group. Upon receipt of premium payment and enrollment form, the coverage will be reinstated. Thereafter, premiums are due on the 1st of the month. If premium payments are not received in a timely manner, federal law stipulates that your coverage will be cancelled after a 30-day grace period. If you have any questions about COBRA or the Plan, please contact Human Capital. Please note, if the terms of the Plan and any response you receive from the Human Capital Department reprehensive conflict, the Plan document will control. 15

16 EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS 2015 ABOUT YOUR PREMIUMS Any contributions you make for yourself, your spouse or your children s medical, dental or vision plan coverage are automatically deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis per IRS guidelines under Section 125. This decreases your taxable earnings and can increase your take-home pay. You are enrolled in this program when you become eligible for benefits and do not need to take any action if no changes are needed. You must notify Human Capitol in writing if you would like your contributions to be taken post-tax. IMPAQ reserves the right to change employee contributions to the health plan at any time during the year. PLAN MEDICAL PREMIUMS FOR DOMESTIC PARTNERS AND THEIR CHILDREN Because the IRS does not recognize domestic partners or their children (unless they qualify as dependents under Section 152) for tax filing purposes, we are required to impute the value of these benefits and report that value, less any post-tax deductions, as taxable income to you. The applicable amount will be added back into your paycheck as taxable income and you will pay taxes on that amount. In addition, deductions for your Domestic Partner and their children will be taken post-tax. If you enroll a domestic partner in these plans, you may be able to deduct your portion of the premium costs on your state tax return. Each state s requirements vary; please consult your tax advisor for details. Some states do not permit pre- tax or tax-free coverage for adult children. As a result, we may impute the value of this coverage and report it as taxable income. To determine the applicable imputed income for the plan you have chosen, please contact Human Capital.
