IMPORTANT NOTICES When do my benefits start? The plan year for Colonial Life Insurance Products, Ameriflex Flexible Spending Accounts, Ameritas Dental, EyeMed Vision, Sun Life Group Term Life, Sun Life Long-Term Disability, and CHUBB Long-Term Care runs from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027. When do my deductions start? Deductions for Colonial Life Insurance Products, Ameriflex Flexible Spending Accounts, Ameritas Dental, EyeMed Vision, Sun Life Group Term Life, Sun Life Long-Term Disability, and CHUBB Long-Term Care start January 2027 for all enrolled employees. The Call A Doctor Plus Telemedicine plan, Tava Health Teletherapy, Farmers Home & Auto Insurance, and MetLife Pet Insurance are available by Direct Billing only. No deductions will be taken via payroll deduction. 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. What is an EAP? Your Group Term Life coverage includes an Employee Assistance Program. An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) offers confidential support and resources for personal or work-related challenges and concerns. Please see the Group Term Life pages of this benefit guide for more details and contact information. 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 3 months to submit claims for incurred qualified spending account expenses (or 3 months 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. Your plan also includes a rollover provision! This means that if you have any money left in your FSA at the end of the plan year, you can carryover up to $680 into the new plan year. Any remaining funds beyond $680 are forfeited under the “Use It or Lose It” rule. Please note: Participants must re-enroll in their FSA account for any rollover funds to be rolled into the new plan year. Failure to re-enroll 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. 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. Please speak with your Plan Administrator for more information. 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. Modiﬁcation to the Health FSA "Use-or-Lose" Rule:

• FSA plan participants should note that up to $680 of any unused funds from the current plan year will be rolled over into your FSA balance for the new plan year.

• The rollover modiﬁcation applies to Health FSA plans only (and not to other types of FSA plans such as dependent care).

• The rollover does not aﬀect the maximum contribution amount for the new plan year. In other words, even if you roll over the entire $680 from the previous plan year, you may still elect up to the maximum contribution limit allowed under your employer’s plan.

FAQ Is there a cost? We charge based on your insurance plan design. This means that there might be a co-pay or cost associated with a therapy session. You can also pay out-of-pocket using a debit/credit card or FSA, HSA, or HRA funds. If sessions are billed to your insurance, those costs will apply toward your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.

How many sessions can I use? You can use as many sessions in a year as you wish. Your therapist will help you build out a cadence that’s right for you.

Who is eligible to use this service? All employees and their dependents, including spouses/partners and children ages 13-25, are eligible. We encourage employees to share this beneﬁt with their household, as when one member struggles, others may too. Each employee and their dependents get their own therapy sessions, so one person using theirs doesn’t take away from anyone else’s.

Is this service conﬁdential? Yes, all records are private and only accessible with the written consent of the patient or legal guardian, unless required by law or court order.

Can my employer see who is using Tava? No, employers cannot access individual usage data. Any data shared with your employer is de-identiﬁed and aggregated to protect your privacy.

Will my personal information be kept safely? Yes, your personal information is securely stored in a HIPAA-compliant database and will never be sold, shared, or transmitted.

FAQ Is this service available after business hours? Yes, Tava’s therapists are available beyond normal business hours. For current availability, please visit care.tavahealth.com.

What if I need help immediately? For immediate help, call the suicide hotline at 988, visit suicidepreventionlifeline.org, go to the nearest emergency room, or call 911.

How will I talk with my therapist? Therapy sessions are generally conducted via video chat through Tava’s online portal. You can use any device with a camera (e.g., computer, smartphone, tablet). For the best experience, choose a quiet, private space with reliable Wi-Fi. Some therapists offer in-person sessions as well – be sure to check for your preference.

What are the qualiﬁcations of my therapist? Therapists are licensed masters or doctoral-level mental health professionals. We verify their credentials and ensure their licensure is in good standing.

What kind of therapy does Tava provide? Tava offers talk therapy (psychotherapy) to help you understand, manage, and resolve challenges, including unhealthy thoughts and behaviors. Therapists do not prescribe medications.

What issues does Tava help resolve? Tava therapists address a wide range of issues. Refer to the next page for common concerns, or schedule your ﬁrst session at care.tavahealth.com to learn more.

Will my therapist and I be a good match? Before your ﬁrst visit, you’ll complete a questionnaire to help Tava match you with a therapist. You can easily switch if you ever feel your therapist isn’t a good ﬁt. A strong therapist relationship is key to successful therapy.

FAQ Is online, video-based therapy effective? Yes, research shows online, video-based therapy is as effective as in-person care in diagnosis, treatment, quality of care, and patient satisfaction. The American Psychiatric Association supports it as a validated and effective practice, enhancing access while ensuring privacy and ethical standards.

Whether you’re feeling stressed, stuck, or facing other challenges, Tava can help. Support is available for a variety of issues, including:

●

Addiction

We're Here to Help This plan was designed specifically for the associates of WINSTON-SALEM/FORSYTH COUNTY SCHOOLS. At Ameritas, we do more than provide coverage - we make sure there's always a friendly voice to explain your benefits, listen to your concerns, and answer your questions. Our customer relations associates will be pleased to assist you 7 a.m. to midnight (Central Time) Monday through Thursday, and 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Friday. You can speak to them by calling toll-free: 800-487-5553. For plan information any time, access our automated voice response system, go online to Explore.Ameritas.com/WSFCS or the Ameritas Benefits app.

Dental Network Information

To find a provider, visit ameritas.com and select FIND A PROVIDER, then DENTAL. Enter your criteria to search by location or for a specific dentist or practice. California Residents: When prompted to select your network, choose the Ameritas Network found on your ID Card or contact Customer Connections at 800-487-5553.

Incentive Coinsurance (Type 1- Preventive)

Plans with coinsurance levels that progressively increase are designed to reward your loyal employees: The longer they stay on the plan, the higher their coinsurance. If plan members have at least one dental claim submitted each benefit period, they continue to advance one coinsurance level until they reach the plan's highest benefit level (100%). If a plan member fails to have at least one dental claim submitted during any benefit year, he or she will revert to the beginning coinsurance benefit (70%). If that happens, members can progress back to higher coinsurance levels in subsequent years by submitting at least one dental claim each benefit year.

Pretreatment

While we don't require a pretreatment authorization form for any procedure, we recommend them for any dental work you consider expensive. As a smart consumer, it's best for you to know your share of the cost up front. Simply ask your dentist to submit the information for a pretreatment estimate to our customer relations department. We'll inform both you and your dentist of the exact amount your insurance will cover and the amount that you will be responsible for. That way, there won't be any surprises once the work has been completed.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to answer any health questions to enroll? Yes, if you request an amount higher than the Guaranteed Issue amount. You may need to complete health questions if you don’t elect coverage when it’s first available to you and you want to elect at a later date, or if you want to increase coverage. To answer health questions, please fill out our Evidence of Insurability application. Health questions must be approved by Sun Life before coverage takes effect. Please see your Certificate for details. What if my spouse and I work for the same employer? Under the policy, if you are married to another employee, you should check with your benefits administrator to confirm whether you are eligible to enroll your spouse as a dependent and to confirm any additional considerations for enrolling dependent children (if dependent child coverage is available). Can I take my insurance with me if I leave my employer? Depending upon state variations and your employer’s plan, you may have an option to continue group coverage when your employment terminates. Your employer can advise you about your options. Can I access my life insurance if I become terminally ill? You may apply to receive a portion of your life insurance to help cover medical and living expenses. This is called an “Accelerated Benefit” and there are some important things to know about it, including that it is not long-term-care insurance, it may be taxable and it may affect your eligibility for public assistance programs. It will also reduce the total amount of the life insurance payment we pay to your beneficiary(ies). What happens if I become Totally Disabled? If we determine that you are Totally Disabled and cannot work, your life insurance coverage may continue at no cost. You must meet certain requirements, as detailed in the Certificate. How does my beneficiary file a death claim? Your beneficiary(ies) and your employer will complete the appropriate claims forms and submit them to us. We will notify your beneficiaries when the decision is made and if we have any questions. If approved, beneficiaries may elect to receive a lump sum payment or to have the benefit paid into an account where the funds accumulate interest and can be withdrawn at any time. (State restrictions apply and options may vary by state.)

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).

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.

To be eligible for Short-Term Disability benefits you must have at least one year of contributing membership service in the Retirement System earned within the 36 calendar months preceding your disability. To be eligible for Long-Term Disability benefits you must have at least five years of contributing membership service in the Retirement System earned within the 96 calendar months prior to becoming disabled or upon cessation of continuous salary continuation payments, whichever is later.

THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA

PROVIDES A DISABILITY INCOME PLAN FOR ITS PERMANENT, FULL-TIME TEACHERS AND STATE EMPLOYEES – AT NO COST TO THE INDIVIDUAL. The State Plan is designed to provide for the continuation of a portion of your salary should you suffer the misfortune of an accident or sickness which disables you for longer than 60 days. HERE’S HOW IT WORKS… 1.

WHEN YOU ARE DISABLED: Percentage of Your Total Monthly Salary the State Pays You* Maximum Total Benefit Reduced By Not Reduced By

----------------------

* 1/12 of your total pay during the 12 months prior to your disability. ** you must have at least five years of contributing membership service in the Retirement System earned within the 96 calendar months prior to the end of the short-term disability period. 2.

Benefits under the State Plan are payable, for “Disability,” which means that you are mentally or physically incapable of performing the duties of your usual occupation.

You become a member of the plan when you become a full-time, permanent employee of the State, and you are eligible to receive benefits from the Plan if you become disabled after you have completed one year’s service. Your coverage under the Plan ends when your employment with the State terminates.

Benefits of the Plan are payable beginning 60 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF YOUR DISABILITY (60day waiting period).

The Plan coordinates with other benefits related to your employment, so that after the amounts you are eligible to receive from Social Security (for the first six months only), Workers’ Compensation, or State retirement plans, etc., the State pays you enough, in addition, to total a) 50% the first twelve months and b) 65% thereafter of your total salary, as explained in the chart above. HOWEVER, ANY BENEFIT FROM A PLAN FOR WHICH YOU PAY THE ENTIRE COST YOURSELF DOES NOT AFFECT THE STATE PLAN IN ANY WAY. BENEFITS ARE SUBJECT TO NC STATE LAW

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). When am I considered totally disabled?

The Hospital Confinement benefit increases when the Total Disability Benefit ends.

Totally disabled means you are:

Can I keep my coverage if I change jobs?

• Unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your occupation;

If you change jobs or retire, you can take your coverage with you at no additional cost. Your coverage is guaranteed renewable for life as long as you pay your premiums when they are due or within the grace period.

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

How do I file a claim?

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

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

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:

What is a pre-existing condition? 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 twelve 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 unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job for more than half of your normally weekly scheduled hours; • You are able to work at your job or your place of employment for less than half of your normally weekly scheduled hours; • Your employer will allow you to return to your job or place of employment for less than half of your normally weekly scheduled hours; and

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

• You are under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

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.

The total disability benefit must have been paid for at least fourteen days immediately prior to your being partially disabled.

Benefits may be paid for

NOTE: This is an increment plan. There are no offsets for NC Teachers Retirement Disability Income Plan, the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS), the State Teachers’ Retirement System (STRS), or for Social Security Disability Benefits, but income from other sources could reduce your benefit amount.

Additional plan features  You’re covered for injury or sickness 24 hours a day, seven days a week, on or off the job.  Qualify for additional benefits if your covered disability begins with a hospital stay of 14 days or more.  A vocational rehabilitation counselor will work with you, when appropriate, to create a return-to-work plan that’s

What happens if I become disabled? Contact your employer to report your disability and to check whether you are insured under the policy and eligible to file a claim for long-term disability insurance benefits. You will have to wait a certain number of days (see “when benefits begin”), for your benefits to kick in after you are no longer able to work due to a covered disability.

How do I qualify for benefits? You’ll start receiving disability payments if you satisfy the Elimination Period (see “When benefits begin” in the table) and meet the definition of disability.

What if I have a pre-existing condition? If you submit a claim within 12 months of your insurance taking effect, or 12 months following any increase in your amount of insurance, we will not pay any benefit for any pre-existing condition. A pre-existing condition includes anything you have sought treatment for in the 3 months prior to your insurance becoming effective. Treatment can include consultation, advice, care, services or a prescription for drugs or medicine.

How do I file a claim? To file your claim, we need to receive information from you about your doctor, your income and your critical condition. We’ll ask for you to authorize the release and disclosure of information, like medical records, to help us evaluate your claim. Your doctor will also need to fill out a form that provides us with specific medical information about your condition and expected recovery. Forms may be downloaded from www.sunlife.com/us. Make sure to complete and sign all forms, as missing information or signatures can delay your claim.

Whom can I contact with questions about my coverage? After the effective date of your coverage, contact our Customer Service representatives at 800-247-6875, 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday.

Regarding how long benefits are paid: what does “up to 5 years graded” mean?

Depending on what age you are when you become disabled, that will determine how long your benefit is paid to you. Age at Disablement

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.

Optional riders At an additional cost, you can purchase the following riders for even more financial protection.

Spouse term life rider Your spouse may receive a maximum death benefit of $50,000; 10-year and 20-year spouse term riders are available.

Children’s term life rider You can purchase up to $20,000 in term life coverage for all of your eligible dependent children and pay one premium. The children’s term life rider may be added to either your policy or your spouse’s policy – not both.

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 ridesharing 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.

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.

Waiver of premium benefit rider Premiums are waived (for the policy and riders) if you become totally disabled before the policy anniversary following your 65th birthday and you satisfy the six-month elimination period.3

1 Any payout would reduce the death benefit. Benefits may be taxable as income. Individuals should consult with their l egal or tax counsel when deciding to apply for accelerated benefits. 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.
