IMPORTANT NOTICES When do my supplemental benefits start? The plan year for Colonial Life Insurance Products runs from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027. When do my supplemental deductions start? Deductions for Colonial Life Insurance Products 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. I want to sign my family up for supplemental 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 PEBA Benefits as well? Pierce Group Representatives are available to educate employees on their PEBA benefits and guide them through the self-enroll process in MyBenefits. PEBA information is included in this guide for informational purposes only. 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 supplemental 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 1-833-556-0006 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.

CANCER BENEFITS


Cancer Insurance Cancer Assist helps protect employees and their loved ones through diagnosis, treatment and recovery. This individual voluntary policy provides benefits that can be used for both medical and out-of-pocket, non-medical expenses traditional health insurance may not cover. Cancer Assist can enhance any competitive benefits package without adding costs to a company’s bottom line.

Competitive advantages

Composite rates are available. There are 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). Indemnity-based benefits provide exactly what’s listed for the selected plan level. The plan’s family care benefit provides a daily benefit when a covered dependent child receives inpatient or outpatient cancer treatment. Employer-optional cancer wellness/health screening benefits are available: – 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

Individual, individual/spouse, one-parent and two-parent family policies Family coverage that includes eligible dependent children (to age 26) for the same rate, regardless of the number of children covered

Frequently asked questions When do disability benefits end?

Will my disability income payment be reduced if I have other insurance?

The total disability benefit will end on the policy anniversary date on or next following your 70th birthday, or when you are no longer considered disabled as defined in the policy, whichever comes first.

Benefits are payable regardless of workers’ compensation or any other insurance you may have with other insurance companies. Benefits are payable directly to you (unless you specify otherwise).

Can I keep my coverage if I change jobs?

When am I considered totally disabled?

If you change jobs or retire, you can take your coverage with you until age 70, as long as you pay your premiums when they are due or within the grace period.

Totally disabled means you are: • Unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your occupation;

How do I file a claim?

• Not, in fact, working at any occupation; and • Under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

Visit coloniallife.com or call our Policyholder Service Center at 1-800-325-4368 for additional information.

What if I want to return to work part time after I am totally disabled?

What is a pre-existing condition?

• You are unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job for more than half of your normally scheduled hours per week;

A pre-existing condition means a sickness or physical condition for which any covered person was treated, received medical advice, or had taken medication within 12 months before the effective date of the policy. If you are age 65 or older when the policy is issued, pre-existing conditions include only conditions specifically excluded from coverage by the rider.

• You are able to work at your job or your place of employment for less than half of your normally scheduled hours per week;

If you become disabled due to a pre-existing condition, we will not pay for any disability period if it begins during the first 12 months the policy is in force.

You may be able to return to work part time and still receive benefits. We call this “partial disability.” This means you may be eligible for coverage if:

• Your employer will allow you to return to your job or place of employment for less than half of your normally scheduled hours per week; and

What is the mental or nervous disorder benefit? This benefit provides coverage for a disability due to a mental or nervous condition. Coverage provides a benefit up to three months per occurrence, with a cumulative lifetime maximum benefit of 24 months.

• You are under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor. The total disability benefit must have been paid for at least 14 days immediately prior to your being partially disabled.

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.

Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit Rider

The day you may need care due to a serious illness might seem hard to imagine, but challenging times could come at any point. A little planning now could go a long way to help protect what you’ve worked so hard to build.

CHRONIC CARE ACCELERATED DEATH BENEFIT RIDER


A LIVING BENEFIT AT ANY AGE: If you have a serious accident or illness, this benefit could be used to pay for needs like out-of-pocket treatment costs, mortgage or outstanding debt. A living benefit may help you manage these expenses without having to pull from savings or rely on financial aid from others.5

SUPPORT DURING CHALLENGING TIMES Matt and his wife, Jennifer, both work full-time jobs to support their two children. The couple recently purchased a new home to accommodate their growing family. After a serious accident, Matt needed a home health care professional to provide medical assistance while he recovered. To cover these expenses, he was going to have to pull from savings or borrow money from family. Fortunately, Matt had a Whole Life Plus3 insurance policy with a chronic care accelerated death benefit rider. His policy had a $100,000 death benefit, and he needed assistance for three months. He was able to receive a 6% monthly payment from his whole life policy’s death benefit, which helped with his care costs.

COLONIAL LIFE & ACCIDENT INSURANCE COMPANY REQUIRED DISCLOSURE FORM FOR CHRONIC CARE ACCELERATED DEATH BENEFIT Consequences of This Benefit: Receipt of accelerated death benefits MAY AFFECT MEDICAID AND SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME (“SSI”) ELIGIBILITY. The mere fact that you own a policy with an accelerated death benefit may affect your eligibility for these government programs. In addition, exercising the option to accelerate death benefits and receiving those benefits before you apply for these programs, or while you are receiving government benefits, may affect your initial or continued eligibility. Contact the Medicaid Unit of your local Division of Medical Assistance and the Social Security Administration for more information. Medical condition allowing the Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit:

The Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit is a benefit which allows a portion of the death benefit to be advanced to you, the policyowner, if the insured has been certified with a chronic illness as defined in this rider if: • it is certified while this rider is in force; and • after the elimination period. Chronic Illness or Chronically Ill means the insured has been certified within the last 12 months by a licensed health care practitioner as: • being unable to perform, without substantial assistance from another individual, at least two activities of daily living for a period of at least 90 days due to a loss of functional capacity; or • requiring substantial supervision to protect the individual from threats to health and safety due to severe cognitive impairment.

Benefit Amount

To File a Claim

Benefit Payment

Effect on Premium Payment/Monthly Deduction

This Disclosure Form highlights some of the information in the rider form. It is not an insurance contract. If there are any inconsistencies between this disclosure form and the rider, then the terms and conditions of the actual rider will control. You, the policyowner, may request a monthly amount of 6% or a one-time lump sum of 50% of the policy face amount, per benefit period. The total amount that we pay you on a monthly or one-time lump sum basis will not exceed the applicable federal per diem limit, adjusted for the applicable payment period, as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 7702B, as amended. If you elected to accelerate an amount that is more than the federal per diem limit, your benefit period will continue until the Chronic Care benefit is exhausted. When we receive your notice of claim, we will provide the Accelerated Benefit Claim Form within 15 days. If you do not receive a claim form within 15 days, proof of eligibility may be submitted by giving us a written statement of the occurrence, the character and the extent of this occurrence for which a claim is made. On all claims, we must receive certification from a Licensed Health Care Practitioner certifying the named insured is chronically ill. We will pay the Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit on a monthly basis, unless you select a one-time lump sum amount. The amount will be paid to you or your estate while the insured is living, unless the proceeds have been otherwise assigned or designated by you. We will send you a policy schedule addendum along with the Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit payment specifying the amount of benefits paid and the effect of the payment on the death benefit amount. If we pay a Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit, the premium payable for the Chronic Care Accelerated Benefit will not change. We will waive premiums for the policy and any riders attached to the policy if the Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit is paid. To avoid duplication of benefits, no waiver of premium benefits described in this provision will be applicable during any period of total disability of the insured as defined in any other provision of the policy, or any rider attached to it, that provides a waiver of premium benefit. Monthly Benefit Waiver will: • begin the first month benefits are paid; and • continue if the insured is still chronically ill after twelve months. We reserve the right to investigate the insured’s health condition to determine if the policy should remain on waiver or if premium payments should resume.

ICC19-IWL5000-DFACC

83227


Effect on Premium Payment/Monthly Deduction (continued)

One-time Lump Sum Benefit Waiver will: • begin when the benefit is paid; and • continue for up to twelve months. We reserve the right to investigate the insured’s health condition to determine if the policy should remain on waiver or if premium payments should resume. Each monthly benefit or one-time lump sum benefit payment under this rider will reduce the following items under the policy, as applicable: • death benefit; • cash value; • any indebtedness; • amount available for policy loans; and • amount available for advance of any part of the death benefit under any provision of the policy or any rider other than this rider.

Effect on Policy Values

Each monthly benefit or one-time lump sum benefit payment will reduce each of the items listed above by a proportional amount. This proportion will equal the payment divided by the death benefit at that time. We will send you a policy schedule addendum along with the Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit payment specifying the amount of benefits paid and the effect of the payment on the death benefit amount. If a Chronic Care Accelerated Death Benefit is paid, the policy may not be converted, and no new coverage can be added to the policy. See illustration below.
