IMPORTANT NOTICES When do my benefits start? The plan year for Colonial Life Insurance Products, Ameriflex Flexible Spending Accounts, Companion Dental, Community Eye Care Vision, and Companion Group Term Life runs from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027. When do my deductions start? Deductions for Colonial Life Insurance Products, Ameriflex Flexible Spending Accounts, Companion Dental, Community Eye Care Vision, and Companion Group Term Life start January 2027 for all enrolled employees. Why have my Cancer, Accident, or Medical Bridge benefits not started yet? The Colonial Cancer plan and the Health Screening Rider on the Colonial Accident and Colonial Medical Bridge plan have a 30-day waiting period for new enrollees. Coverage, therefore, will not begin until January 31, 2027. How do Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds work, and do my FSA funds have to be used by a specific deadline? Flexible Spending Account expenses must be incurred during the plan year to be eligible for reimbursement. After the plan year ends, an employee has 90 days to submit claims for incurred qualified spending account expenses (or 90 days after employment termination date). If employment is terminated before the plan year ends, the spending account also ends. Failure to use all allotted funds in the FSA account will result in a “Use It or Lose It” scenario. My spouse is enrolled in a Health Savings Account (HSA), am I eligible for an FSA? As a married couple, one spouse cannot be enrolled in a Medical Reimbursement FSA at the same time the other opens or contributes to an HSA. How do Dependent Care Account (DCA) funds work and when do they need to be used? Dependent Care Accounts are like FSA accounts and allow you to request reimbursement up to your current balance. However, you cannot receive more reimbursement than what has been deducted from your pay. Any remaining funds in your DCA account must be utilized before the deadline. Failure to use all allotted funds in the DCA account will result in a “Use It or Lose It” scenario. When will I get my card? If you will be receiving a new debit card, whether you are a new participant or to replace your expired card, please be aware that it may take up to 30 days following your plan effective date for your card to arrive. Your card will be delivered by mail in a plain white envelope. During this time you may use manual claim forms for eligible expenses. Please note that your debit card is good through the expiration date printed on the card. I want to sign my family up for benefits as well, what information will I need? If signing up for any coverage on your spouse and/or children, please have their dates of birth and social security numbers available when speaking with the Beneﬁts Representative. Can I sign up for Health Insurance as well? No, Pierce Group Representatives are not authorized to assist employees with their SHP enrollment or make SHP enrollment elections on an employee’s behalf. What does Pre-Tax vs. Post-Tax Change? Pre-Tax benefits take funds directly from your paycheck to cover benefits before going through State and Federal taxing process. Post-Tax collects funds for benefits after taxes have been taken out. Please be aware there are certain coverages that may be subject to federal and state tax when premium is paid by pretax deduction or employee contribution. Can I change my benefit elections outside of the enrollment period? Elections made during this enrollment period CANNOT BE CHANGED AFTER THE ENROLLMENT PERIOD unless there is a family status change, otherwise known as a qualifying life event (QLE), as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. Examples of a QLE can be found in the chart on the next page. Once a QLE has occurred, an employee has 30 days to notify PGB’s Employee Services at 1-888-662-7500 to request a change in elections. I have a pre-existing condition. Will I still be covered? Some policies may include a pre-existing condition clause. Please read your policy carefully for full details.

FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT

Flexible Spending Account An account for setting aside tax-free money for healthcare expenses Use the below information to determine if a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is right for you and how to best take advantage of an FSA account.

How It Works When you enroll in a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) you get to experience tax savings on qualified expenses such as copays, deductibles, prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs and medications, and thousands of other everyday items. Can I have an FSA and an HSA? You can’t contribute to an FSA and HSA within the same plan year. However, you can contribute to an HSA and a limited purpose FSA, which only covers dental and vision expenses. As per IRS Publication 969, an employee covered by an HDHP and a health FSA or an HRA that pays or reimburses qualified medical expenses generally can’t make contributions to an HSA. An employee is also not HSA-eligible during an FSA Grace Period. An employee enrolled in a Limited Purpose FSA is HSA-eligible. As a married couple, one spouse cannot be enrolled in an FSA at the same time the other is contributing to an HSA. FSA coverage extends tax benefits to family members allowing the FSA holder to be reimbursed for medical expenses for themselves, their spouse, and their dependents.

The Value & Perks • Election Accessibility: You will have access to your entire election on the ﬁrst day of the plan year. • Save On Eligible Expenses: You can save up to 40% on thousands of eligible everyday expenses such as prescriptions, doctor’s visits, dental services, glasses, over-the-counter medicines, and copays.

• Keep More Money: The funds are taken out of your paycheck "pre-tax" (meaning they are subtracted from your gross earnings before taxes) throughout the course of the year. Let’s say you earn $40,000 a year and contribute $1,500 to an FSA; so, only $38,500 of your income gets taxed. That means you are increasing your take-home pay simply by participating!

• Easy Spending and Account Management: You will receive an Ameriﬂex Debit Mastercard linked to your FSA. You can use your card for eligible purchases everywhere Mastercard is accepted. Account information can be securely accessed 24/7 online and through the mobile app.

Eligible FSA Expenses The IRS determines what expenses are eligible under an FSA. Below are some examples of common eligible expenses.

Copays, deductibles, and other payments you are responsible for under your health plan.

Routine exams, dental care, prescription drugs, eye care, hearing aids, etc.

Prescription glasses and sunglasses, contact lenses and solution, LASIK, and eye exams.

Certain OTC expenses such as Band-aids, medicine, First Aid supplies, etc. (prescription required).

Diabetic equipment and supplies, durable medical equipment, and qualiﬁed medical products or services.

For a full list of eligible expenses, go to myameriﬂex.com/eligibleexpenses.

The “Use-or-Lose” Rule If you contribute dollars to a reimbursement account and do not use all the money you deposit, you will lose any remaining balance in the account at the end of the eligible claims period. This rule, established by the IRS as a component of tax-advantaged plans, is referred to as the “use-or-lose” rule. To avoid losing any of the funds you contribute to your FSA, it’s important to plan ahead as much as possible to estimate what your expenditures will be in a given plan year.

This is an outline of Dental Insurance Coverage underwritten by Companion Life Insurance Company.

Exclusions – Dental Insurance

Covered Expenses will not include and no benefits will be payable for the following: 1.

Expenses in any Class of services that are incurred during the Insured's waiting period for services in that Class (as shown in the Schedule of Benefits), except as may be provided under the Takeover Provisions provision. An Insured is not eligible for Takeover Provisions if Takeover Provisions are not provided, or if Takeover Provisions are provided but the person: a) is a Late Entrant; b) became insured under the Policy after the Employer's Effective Date; or c) was not insured under the Employer's prior plan that was replaced by coverage under the Policy.

Any treatment which is for cosmetic purposes, or to correct congenital malformations, other than Medically Necessary treatment of congenital cleft in the lip and/or palate, or other birth abnormalities of a newborn.

Initial placement of any full or partial denture, implants, fixed bridge, or other prosthetic appliance during any period of continuous coverage for the Insured under the Policy, unless such placement is needed because of the extraction of one or more of the Insured's natural teeth during the same period of continuous coverage. Any portion of the expense that is identifiable as applying specifically to the replacement of a tooth extracted before that period of continuous coverage is not a Covered Expense. The extraction of a third molar (wisdom tooth) does not qualify the appliance for payment. Any such appliance must include the replacement of the extracted tooth or teeth.

Replacement of any full or partial denture, fixed bridge, other appliance, crown, inlay, onlay, or other precious or semiprecious metal restoration within 5 year(s) of the date of the last placement of the item. But if a replacement is required because of an accidental bodily injury sustained while the Insured is covered under the Policy, it will be a Covered Expense. In any event, replacement is not a Covered Expense if the item can instead be repaired or otherwise restored to adequate function.

Replacement of an existing implant and/or supported prosthetic device is covered only once every 10 year(s) from the placement date of such device and only then if it is unserviceable and cannot be made serviceable. But if a replacement is required because of an accidental bodily injury sustained while the Insured is covered under the Policy, it will be a Covered Expense. In any event, replacement is not a Covered Expense if the item can instead be repaired or otherwise restored to adequate function.

Addition of a new tooth or teeth to an existing full or partial denture, fixed bridge, or other prosthetic appliance during any period of continuous coverage for the Insured under the Policy, unless such addition is a replacement of a natural tooth or teeth extracted during the same period of continuous coverage. The extraction of a third molar (wisdom tooth) does not qualify the appliance for payment.

Any expense incurred before the Insured's insurance under the Policy starts; or any expense incurred during any period of continuous coverage for the Insured under the Policy if the procedure starts before the period of continuous coverage starts.

Any procedure that starts, or any expense that is incurred (regardless of when the procedure starts), after the Insured's insurance under the Policy ends.

CANCER BENEFITS

Cancer Insurance Our Cancer Assist plan helps employees protect themselves and their loved ones through their diagnosis, treatment and recovery journey. This individual voluntary policy pays benefits that can be used for both medical and/or out-of-pocket, non-medical expenses traditional health insurance may not cover. Available exclusively at the workplace, Cancer Assist is an attractive addition to any competitive benefits package that won’t add costs to a company’s bottom line.

Competitive advantages n Composite rates. n Four distinct plan levels, each featuring the same benefits with premiums and benefit

amounts designed to meet a variety of budgets and coverage needs (benefits overview on reverse).

n Indemnity-based benefits pay exactly what’s listed for the selected plan level. n The plan’s Family Care Benefit provides a daily benefit when a covered dependent child

receives inpatient or outpatient cancer treatment.

n Employer-optional cancer wellness/health screening benefits available: n

Part One covers 24 tests. If selected, the employer chooses one of four benefit amounts for employees: $25, $50, $75 or $100. This benefit is payable once per covered person per calendar year. Part Two covers an invasive diagnostic test or surgical procedure if an abnormal result from a Part One test requires additional testing. This benefit is payable once per calendar year per covered person and matches the Part One benefit.

Flexible family coverage options n Individual, Individual/Spouse, One-parent and Two-parent family policies. n Family coverage includes eligible dependent children (to age 26) for the same rate,

regardless of the number of children covered.

Attractive features n Available for businesses with 3+ eligible employees. n Broad range of policy issue ages, 17-75. n Each plan level features full schedule of 30+ benefits and three optional riders

(benefit amounts may vary based on plan level selected).

n Benefits don’t coordinate with any other coverage from any other insurer. n HSA compliant. n Guaranteed renewable. n Portable. n Waiver of premium if named insured is disabled due to cancer for longer than 90

consecutive days and the date of diagnosis is after the waiting period and while the policy is in force.

n Form 1099s may not be issued in most states because all benefits require that a

charge is incurred. Discuss details with your benefits representative, or consult your tax adviser if you have questions.

Talk to your benefits representative today to learn more about this product and how it helps provide extra financial protection to employees who may be impacted by cancer.

Optional riders (available at an additional cost/payable once per covered person) n Initial Diagnosis of Cancer Rider pays a one-time benefit for the initial diagnosis of cancer.

A benefit amount in $1,000 increments from $1,000-$10,000 may be chosen. The benefit for covered dependent children is two and a half times ($2,500-25,000) the chosen benefit amount.

n Initial Diagnosis of Cancer Progressive Payment Rider pays a $50 lump-sum payment

for each month the rider has been in force, after the waiting period, once cancer is first diagnosed. The issue ages for this rider are 17-64.

n Specified Disease Hospital Confinement Rider pays $300 per day for confinement to a

hospital for treatment of one of 34 specified diseases covered under the rider. 42

If an accident or sickness prevents you from earning a paycheck, disability insurance can provide a monthly benefit to help you cover your ongoing expenses.

Can you afford to not protect your paycheck? You don’t have the same lifestyle expenses as the next person. That’s why you need disability coverage that can be customized to fit your specific needs. After calculating your monthly expenses, your benefits counselor can help you complete the benefits worksheet. ESTIMATED MONTHLY EXPENSES

TERM LIFE INSURANCE

Term Life Insurance Life insurance protection when you need it most Life insurance needs change as life circumstances change. You may need different coverage if you’re getting married, buying a home or having a child. Term life insurance from Colonial Life provides protection for a specified period of time, typically offering the greatest amount of coverage for the lowest initial premium. This fact makes term life insurance a good choice for supplementing cash value coverage during life stages when obligations are higher, such as while children are younger. It’s also a good option for families on a tight budget — especially since you can convert it to a permanent cash value plan later.

With this coverage: n A beneficiary can receive a benefit that is typically free from income tax. n The policy’s accelerated death benefit can pay a percentage of the death benefit if the covered person is diagnosed with a terminal illness. n You can convert it to a Colonial Life cash value insurance plan, with no proof of good health, to age 75. n Coverage is guaranteed renewable up to age 95 as long as premiums are paid when due. n Portability allows you to take it with you if you change jobs or retire.

Talk with your Colonial Life benefits counselor to learn more.

Spouse coverage options

Dependent coverage options

Two options are available for spouse coverage at an additional cost:

You may add a Children’s Term Life Rider to cover all of your eligible dependent children with up to $20,000 in coverage each for one premium.

1. Spouse Term Life Policy: Offers guaranteed premiums and level death benefits equivalent to those available to you –whether or not you buy a policy for yourself. 2. Spouse Term Life Rider: Add a term rider for your spouse to your policy, up to a maximum death benefit of $50,000; 10-year and 20-year are available (20-year rider only available with a 20- or 30-year term policy).

The Children’s Term Life Rider may be added to either the primary or spouse policy, not both.

If the insured dies by suicide, whether sane or insane, within two years (one year in ND) from the coverage effective date or the date of reinstatement, we will not pay the death benefit. We will terminate this policy and return the premiums paid, without interest. Product may vary by state.

Accidental death benefit rider The beneficiary may receive an additional benefit if the covered person dies as a result of an accident before age 70. The benefit doubles if the accidental bodily injury occurs while riding as a fare-paying passenger using public transportation, such as ride-sharing services. An additional 25% will be payable if the injury is sustained while driving or riding in a private passenger vehicle and wearing a seatbelt.

Chronic care accelerated death benefit rider If a licensed health care practitioner certifies that you have a chronic illness, you may receive an advance on all or a portion of the death benefit, available in a one-time lump sum or monthly payments.1 A chronic illness means you require substantial supervision due to a severe cognitive impairment or you may be unable to perform at least two of the six Activities of Daily Living.2 Premiums are waived during the benefit period.

Critical illness accelerated death benefit rider

£ Critical illness accelerated death benefit rider

If you suffer a heart attack (myocardial infarction), stroke or end-stage renal (kidney) failure, a $5,000 benefit is payable.1 A subsequent diagnosis benefit is included.

To learn more, talk with your Colonial Life benefits counselor.

1 Any payout would reduce the death benefit. Benefits may be taxable as income. Individuals should consult with their legal or tax counsel when deciding to apply for accelerated benefits. 2 Activities of daily living are bathing, continence, dressing, eating, toileting and transferring. 3 You must resume premium payments once you are no longer disabled.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS If the insured dies by suicide, whether sane or insane, within two years (one year in ND) from the coverage effective date or the date of reinstatement, we will not pay the death benefit. We will terminate this policy and return the premiums paid without interest, minus any loans and loan interest to you.

An additional benefit may be payable if the covered person dies as a result of an accident before age 70, and doubles if the injury occurs while riding as a fare-paying passenger using public transportation. An additional 25% is payable if the injury occurs while driving or riding in a private passenger vehicle and wearing a seatbelt.

Critical illness accelerated death benefit rider If you suffer a heart attack, stroke or end-stage renal (kidney) failure, a $5,000 benefit is payable.1 A subsequent diagnosis benefit is included.

Guaranteed purchase option rider This rider allows you to purchase additional whole life coverage — without having to answer health questions — at three different points in the future. The rider may only be added if you are age 50 or younger when you purchase the policy. You may purchase up to your initial face amount, not to exceed a total combined maximum of $100,000 for all options.

Waiver of premium benefit rider Policy and rider premiums are waived if you become totally disabled before the policy anniversary following your 65th birthday and you satisfy the six-month elimination period. Once you are no longer disabled, premiums will resume.

* Whole Life Plus is a marketing name of the insurance policy filed as “Whole Life Insurance” in most states. 1 Any payout would reduce the death benefit. Benefits may be taxable as income. Individuals should consult with their legal or tax counsel when deciding to apply for accelerated benefits. 2 Accessing the accumulated cash value reduces the death benefit by the amount accessed, unless the loan is repaid. Cash value will be reduced by any outstanding loans against the policy. 3 The rider is not available in all states. This life insurance does not specifically cover funeral goods or services and may not cover the entire cost of your funeral at the time of your death. The beneficiary of this life insurance may use the proceeds for any purpose, unless otherwise directed. EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS: If the insured dies by suicide, whether sane or insane, within two years (one year in ND) from the coverage effective date or the date of reinstatement, we will not pay the death benefit. We will terminate this policy and return the premiums paid without interest, minus any loans and loan interest to you.

COBRA CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE INTRODUCTION: You’re getting this notice because you recently gained coverage under a group plan. This notice has 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 your right to get 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.

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.”

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.

Sometimes, filing a proceeding in bankruptcy under title 11 of the United States Code can be a qualifying event. If a proceeding in bankruptcy is filed with respect to Anson County Government and that bankruptcy results in the loss of coverage of any retired employee covered under the Plan, the retired employee will become a qualified beneficiary. The retired employee’s spouse, surviving spouse, and dependent children will also become qualified beneficiaries if bankruptcy results in the loss of their coverage under the Plan.

What Is Cobra Continuation Coverage?: COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life event. This is also called 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 [choose and enter appropriate information: must pay or aren’t required to pay] for COBRA continuation coverage.

When is COBRA continuation coverage available?

If you’re an employee, you’ll 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’re the spouse of an employee, you’ll 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

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). For all 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. You must provide this notice to: Roslynn Ingram at Anson County Government. Applicable documentation will be required i.e. court order, certificate of coverage etc. 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,

COBRA CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE or a second qualifying event during the initial period of coverage, may permit a beneficiary to receive a maximum of 36 months of coverage.

the COBRA election, COBRA coverage may not be discontinued on account of Medicare entitlement, even if you enroll in the other part of Medicare after the date of the election of COBRA coverage.

There are also ways in which this 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage can be extended:

If you are enrolled in both COBRA continuation coverage and Medicare, Medicare will generally pay first (primary payer) and COBRA continuation coverage will pay second. Certain plans may pay as if secondary to Medicare, even if you are not enrolled in Medicare.

Disability extension of 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage: If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by Social Security to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to get up to an additional 11 months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a 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 COBRA continuation coverage. Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage: If your family experiences another qualifying event during the 18 months 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, Medicare, Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), 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. Can I enroll in Medicare instead of COBRA continuation coverage after my group health plan coverage ends?: In general, if you don’t enroll in Medicare Part A or B when you are first eligible because you are still employed, after the Medicare initial enrollment period, you have an 8-month special enrollment period to sign up for Medicare Part A or B, beginning on the earlier of
