This guide contains important information about the ABM Benefits Program for eligible team members. Please read it thoroughly.
At ABM, we are committed to offering a wide range of benefits plans that support your overall physical, mental, and financial wellbeing. For 2025, we will roll out an innovative program that couples life insurance and long term care, expand our wellness benefits, add features to certain medical plans that can help you manage medical conditions, and make it easier for you to get the life insurance coverage you need.
Action required: Benefits open enrollment is for ALL TEAM MEMBERS, including those who recently enrolled or made a change in coverage! You must take action if you are eligible for ABM-sponsored plans. Your current Medical, Dental, Vision, Health Savings Account (HSA), and Health Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) coverage, if any, will end December 31, 2024. Be sure to enroll and get the coverage you want for 2025!
You have 31 days from your hire/rehire date to enroll. If you do not enroll, it is considered a waiver of coverage. See Enrollment Basics for more information.
An innovative new financial protection plan through Chubb called Life Insurance with Long Term Care that lets you use a portion of your Life Insurance benefit to pay for home health care, assisted living, and nursing home care.
New offerings for Frontline team members, including:
• Voluntary Long Term Disability – You will be eligible to receive a portion of your monthly pre-disability earnings up to a maximum monthly benefit.
• Voluntary Life Insurance (VLI) for dependents – In addition to VLI coverage for yourself, you may now elect coverage for your spouse and child(ren). You may elect certain levels of VLI for your spouse without providing evidence of insurability; child options do not require evidence of insurability.
• Voluntary Accidental Death & Dismemberment (VAD&D) for dependents –In addition to VAD&D coverage for yourself, you may now elect coverage for your spouse and child(ren). All options are available without providing evidence of insurability.
Instant approval on most levels of Voluntary Life Insurance coverage so you can elect or increase your coverage amount without providing evidence of insurability.
Increased wellness benefits that reward you for participating in routine health care activities if you elect Cigna Healthcare’s Supplemental Insurance.
New features in our Surest Medical option to help manage Diabetes and assist with overall joint health.
A new medical option for the Greater Houston area that is similar to ABM’s current Gold option but offers in-network coverage only through the narrow Kelsey-Seybold network.
Continued focus on physical and mental wellness, including 100% coverage for routine preventive care under all medical, dental, and vision options, no cost or low-cost virtual visits, and the continued availability of our Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
Cost-sharing stability in our Medical Plan options, with no changes to copays, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket maximums across all Medical Plan options. No changes to deductibles for Gold option, Surest Choice, and Surest Health. Minor change to in-network deductibles for Silver option: individual deductible increasing by $100 and family deductible increasing by $200 (as part of the required increase for high-deductible plans).
This 2025 Benefits Enrollment Guide includes everything you need to understand your options and enroll. Enroll online in English or Spanish at digital.alight.com/abm or use the Alight Mobile app.

This Guide was created to assist you when you elect your benefits. That means it works for you:
• During annual benefits open enrollment for current team members,
• During your initial enrollment period when you first join ABM as a new hire/rehire, or
• When you experience a Qualifying Life Event (QLE) that allows you to make changes to your coverage during the year (see Changing Your Elections During the Year).
It will also serve as a reference during the year when you have questions about your benefits.
This Guide includes the following information:
• Enrollment Basics – Decide if you want to elect or waive Medical, Dental, and/or Vision coverage, as well as any other benefits that require an active enrollment election during annual benefits open enrollment or when you first become eligible. Choose to make your elections: online, using the app, or by phone.
• How to Enroll – Find instructions for enrolling using the website, via the Alight Mobile App, or by phone.
• Participation – Determine if you and your dependents are eligible, as well as when your coverage begins and ends.
• Details About All Your Benefits – Get the specifics on all your benefits and use our charts to help you make your choices. For additional information about the plans available to you, visit the ABM Benefits Center at digital.alight.com/abm, login to the Alight Mobile app, or call 833.938.4635.
• Directory of Resources – Carrier phone numbers, websites, and policy numbers are available in one convenient location. The directory is located at the back of this Guide. Keep this directory handy for use throughout 2025.
• You must enroll within 31 days of your hire/rehire date.
• In general, coverage will begin on the first of the month following 60 days of consecutive employment with ABM.
• Your elections will remain in effect through December 31 of the current year, unless you are no longer employed by ABM, are no longer in an eligible class, or experience a QLE (see Changing Your Elections During the Year).
• If you do not enroll during your initial enrollment period, you will not have another opportunity to enroll until the next annual benefits open enrollment, within 31 days of experiencing a change in eligible class, or within 31 days of a QLE.
• Failure to enroll is considered a waiver of coverage.
• Annual benefits open enrollment is for all team members, including those recently enrolled based on being hired/rehired or who experienced a change in eligible class or QLE (see Changing Your Elections During the Year).
• IF YOU DO NOT ENROLL DURING ANNUAL BENEFITS OPEN ENROLLMENT, the chart on the following page shows what will happen to your benefits coverage.
• You may change your elections as often as you’d like during annual benefits open enrollment, October 8 – 22 (11:59 p.m. Central Time). The elections we have on file for you when the enrollment system closes will be considered your final elections and will be effective for the entire plan year (January 1 – December 31, 2025), unless you are no longer employed by ABM, are no longer in an eligible class, or experience a QLE.
• If you do not enroll during annual benefits open enrollment, you will not have another opportunity to enroll until the next annual benefits open enrollment, within 31 days of experiencing a change in eligible class, or within 31 days of a QLE.
• Failure to enroll is considered a waiver of coverage.
If you take a leave of absence, your benefits may be affected depending on the type of leave you take. To determine how your benefits are affected, refer to the applicable Summary Plan Description (SPD) located at the ABM Benefits Center on digital.alight.com/abm

Coverage effective in 2024 will end December 31, 2024.
Participation effective in 2024 will end December 31, 2024.
If you are currently enrolled and still meet the eligibility requirements, your current election will carry forward and will be subject to the applicable 2025 rates.
Depending on your work status and location, you may be eligible for some or all of the benefits shown in the chart at left.
If you are offered these benefits automatically or are currently participating and still meet the eligibility requirements, your current benefits will carry forward to 2025. If you are newly eligible for any of these benefits, you will be enrolled automatically.
You will not be allowed to elect coverage until the next Benefits Open Enrollment.
1 You may change or stop your contributions at any time. Any changes made mid-year will be effective the 1st of the month following when the change was initiated.
2 You may drop coverage at anytime without a QLE, however, you may not change or reenroll in coverage unless you experience certain changes in eligibility or a QLE.
3 You may update your beneficiary information at any time.
4 Once eligible, you may enroll, change, or stop contributions at any time.
5 You may enroll, change, or drop coverage at any time.
When you pay for benefits coverage using pre-tax dollars, the IRS dictates that you may only change these elections outside annual benefits open enrollment (or your initial enrollment period, if a new hire/rehire) if you have a QLE.
An eligible QLE includes:
• Birth, adoption, or the placement of a child for adoption,
• Marriage,
• Divorce or legal separation,
• Death of a dependent,
• A dependent loses or gains eligibility,
• A change in employment status for you or your spouse/domestic partner,
• You or your spouse enroll in Medicare or Medicaid,
• A court order requiring you to cover an eligible dependent, and
• A significant reduction of hours, such as full-time to part-time.
Any change in your coverage must be consistent with your eligible QLE. For example, if you have a baby, you may add your child to your medical coverage; you may not remove your spouse from coverage because of the birth of your child.
You will have 31 days from the date of the QLE to change your benefits. If the QLE is due to your entitlement or loss of entitlement for Medicare, Medicaid, or Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or due to a Special Enrollment Period under the Federal Marketplace, you have 60 days to change your benefits. If you miss this deadline, your next chance to make any changes will be during the next annual benefits enrollment period or within 31 days of experiencing another QLE.

New Hires/Rehires: You must enroll within 31 days of your hire or rehire date. In general, coverage will begin on the first of the month following 60 days of consecutive employment with ABM.
The information below will help you determine if you have a dependent who qualifies to be enrolled as an eligible dependent. You will need to provide a Social Security number (SSN) and date of birth for all dependents that you enroll, since all dependents enrolled in ABM’s benefits plans will be verified (see Dependent Eligibility Verification for more information).
Dependent coverage begins and ends when coverage for the team member begins and ends (unless otherwise noted), as described in When Coverage/Participation Begins/Ends.
Type of Dependent Eligibility Requirements1
Spouse
Domestic Partner2
Must be legally married to the team member.
A person of the opposite or same sex with whom the team member has established a domestic partnership.
Child (biological, adopted, foster, or step-child) Under age 26.
Child of a Domestic Partner2 Under age 26
Child Covered Under a Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMSCO) Order must be a QMSCO.
Disabled Child Aged 26 or Older3
Must be incapable of self-sustained employment because of physical disability, mental or cognitive disability, mental illness, or mental health disorder; dependent on the team member for a majority of his/her financial support and maintenance; live with the team member for more than half the year; and have been covered under the plan before age 26.
1 Unless otherwise noted in the section specific to the benefits plan.
2 Your share of the premium for coverage for a domestic partner and/or child(ren) of a domestic partner must be treated as after-tax. Further, the portion of the premium ABM contributes toward that coverage is subject to imputed income.
3 You will be required to complete a disabled dependent form for each benefit plan in which you enroll a disabled child who is age 26 or older.
ABM is committed to providing affordable health care benefits for all team members and their eligible dependents. To ensure benefits dollars are equitably distributed amongst all team members, we must verify we are only paying the expenses of eligible dependents. ABM has partnered with Alight to verify dependent eligibility. Please follow the instructions provided on digital.alight.com/abm or the Alight Mobile app when enrolling dependents. If your dependents have already been verified, they will not be required to go through this process during annual benefits open enrollment.
If you elect coverage for a new dependent, a letter will be mailed to you within three business days of adding the dependent. You will then have 30 days from the date you added the dependent to submit the required documentation. Documentation received after 30 days will not be considered. You can upload documents within 24 hours of adding a dependent on the Alight portal.
All dependent documentation must be provided to Alight, not ABM. You may upload documentation to the ABM Benefits Center at digital.alight.com/abm or the Alight Mobile app. You may also fax documentation to Alight at 866.616.3558.
IMPORTANT: Any dependent not verified by the verification deadline date will be removed from coverage retroactively. Note that if you receive ID cards prior to submitting approved documentation, this does not indicate that your dependent(s) have been approved. If claims are incurred and paid by the plan prior to your dependent(s) being retroactively removed from coverage, you will be required to reimburse the plan the full amount paid. If you have any questions regarding the dependent verification process, please call the ABM Benefits Center at 833.938.4635.
In order to comply with the Affordable Care Act of 2010, regulations from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and carrier requirements, ABM is required to collect SSNs for all dependents enrolled in a Company-sponsored plan. This also helps ensure dependent claims are processed in a timely manner. The collection and use of SSNs is limited by federal and state laws and regulations. When an SSN is used for protected health information (PHI), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) privacy rules dictate who can collect the information, how it can be used, and with whom it can be shared. With these rules, collection of SSNs for reporting to the IRS and CMS are considered a legitimate and necessary use of the SSN under federal law.
If both you and your legal spouse or domestic partner are employed by ABM, please keep in mind these restrictions on electing duplicate coverage:
Medical, Dental, and Vision – You may each enroll as an individual or one of you may elect Employee & Spouse coverage, Employee & Child(ren) coverage, or Employee & Family coverage. If you elect coverage separately, you cannot cover each other as a dependent and your eligible child(ren) may only be covered by one of you.
Voluntary Life Insurance – You may each elect VLI coverage as an Employee. Alternatively, one of you may elect VLI coverage for yourself as an Employee and then elect Spouse coverage for your spouse/domestic partner. But neither of you are allowed to be covered as both an Employee and a Spouse. Further, if you and your spouse/domestic partner elect VLI separately, your eligible child(ren) may only be covered by one of you.

1 You may be able to continue coverage for these plans after you terminate. Please contact the carrier.
ABM provides a range of plans and contribution levels to ensure you can make choices that balance cost against other factors that are important to you. The option you choose now will remain in effect through December 31, 2025, unless you are no longer employed by ABM, are no longer in an eligible class, or experience a QLE (see Changing Your Elections During the Year).
This option allows you to shop for the best health care value. Whenever you need health care, you can use the Surest app on your smart phone to see all providers and care options in your area. The actual cost to you is displayed within the app, so there are no billing surprises. You can visit any provider you see and pay no more than the amount shown in the app, with no deductible. You will pay less when you use a provider in the network. Unique to Surest Health, you will also pay less when you select a higher value care option or provider, as indicated by a lower copay amount.
To learn more about Surest Health before making your decision, please scan the code to the right. You can explore your treatment costs, find providers, and experience the ease of Surest Health by visiting the pre-enrollment site at join.surest.com/ABM, access code: ABMChoice2025.
* Part-time team members who have met the minimum hour requirement under the Affordable Coverage Act (ACA) are considered full-time. Part-time team members who meet this requirement will be notified.
Highlights of the plan are shown in the following chart. All medical copays apply to the out-of-pocket maximum. Benefits for out-of-network services will be less than in-network. Out-of-network benefits can be found at digital.alight.com/abm by clicking “View Plan Details” on the plan’s enrollment section. A copy of the SPD is available on digital.alight.com/abm.

Your prescription drug benefits are provided under a Preferred Drug List (PDL). The PDL consists of four tiers with medications assigned to different levels based on cost and overall health value. Tier 1 is your lowest-cost option. Not all generic medications are placed in Tier 1 and not all brand medications are placed in Tiers 2 and 3. Some medications may be excluded from your benefit coverage. For Tier 4 specialty medications, you are responsible for a portion of the cost of the drug, depending on which plan you chose. We encourage you to discuss lower-cost options with your doctor. If you have questions regarding your prescription drug benefits, call the pharmacy customer service number on your ID card.
There are thousands of participating pharmacies throughout the country to meet your retail prescription needs. You also have the option of using mail order services that provide the same quality you get from your local pharmacy with the convenience of home delivery and standard shipping at no cost to you. You may request same day or next day delivery at an additional shipping cost. If you have medications you take regularly, you could have lower out-of-pocket costs and greater convenience with the mail order pharmacy. Visit the carrier’s member portal to set up your mail order deliveries and obtain more information about the program. If you have questions regarding your prescription drug benefits, call the customer service number listed in this Guide and reference the Policy number shown on your ID card.

What is the purpose of a Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) plan?
MEC plans are designed to offer a minimum level of coverage that starts by providing coverage for preventive/wellness care (as outlined in the Affordable Care Act “ACA”) and certain medical care, as well as savings on prescription drugs. Although reimbursement is provided for certain major medical issues, such as hospitalization, the reimbursement amount may be minimal in comparison to the overall cost you may incur. MEC plans are appropriate for people who want a basic level of coverage for things such as routine physicals, well-child care, and trips to a doctors’ office or urgent care center.
What is the difference between a traditional medical plan and the MEC plans?
There are many differences between the MEC plans and traditional plans. It’s important to understand them when making your choice as shown below.
Plan pays allowable $ reimbursement for preventive care or reimburses you directly for certain medical events
You pay remainder
After deductible, plan covers % of eligible cost
You pay remainder
How does reimbursement work with the MEC plans?
Suppose you’re in the Essential Premium plan and need to go to the emergency room. Assume your charges are $1,000. Your reimbursement is $200. You will pay the remaining $800. (See the chart on page 3 for reimbursement levels.)
How many MEC plans are available?
Three: Basic, Essential Plus, and Essential Premium.
How are the three MEC plans alike?
All MEC plans offer 100% coverage for preventive services and wellness care (as outlined in the ACA). And there are no deductibles to satisfy. Prescription drug benefits are also identical for each level.
How are the three MEC plans different?
The three MEC plans provide different levels of reimbursement. For example, for the 1st day of a hospitalization, the Basic plan provides no coverage, the Essential Plus plan provides $500 reimbursement, and the Essential Premium provides $3,200 reimbursement.
Does Bay Bridge issue hard copy ID cards?
Bay Bridge does not issue hard copy ID cards. ID cards are available electronically through The Health Wallet App. See the next page for how to access the app.
ABM subsidize the cost of any of the MEC plans?
In most cases, ABM subsidizes the cost of the Bay Bridge Basic and Essential Premium plans for full-time team members.
What types of services do the MEC plans cover?
The MEC plans provide health care services in these categories:
• Direct Primary Care (DCP) – Access through Healthcare2U. No ID card needed. Just call Healthcare2U to set up a visit.
• Prescription medications – Access through ProCareRx (separate ID card).
• Preventive care – Access through MultiPlan (separate ID card).
What do I need to do to see a doctor?
All care (except preventive care) must be coordinated through Healthcare2U or no benefit is provided. To reach Healthcare2U by phone: 800.496.2805. You have unlimited Direct Primary Care (DPC) visits with a $10 fee, You have unlimited urgent care visits with a $25 fee. Unlimited access to bilingual licensed medical providers online or by phone, 24/7/365 for minor illnesses and injuries at $0 out-of-pocket cost to members.
What are the benefits for preventive care?
All MEC plans provide complete coverage for preventive care at no cost to you. Preventive care covers services such as physical exams, well-child care, immunizations, screening mammograms, and PSA tests, along with many other services to keep you healthy.
Are prescription medications covered under the MEC plans?
All MEC plans offer discounted pricing for prescription drugs through ProCareRx. You will have access to discounted rates of up to 85% at over 65,000 retail pharmacies across the U.S.

ABM’s Medical Plan options cover virtual visits that allow you to consult with a doctor from your mobile device or computer. Most visits take about 10-15 minutes. In some cases, doctors may be able to write a prescription following your virtual visit or send you to a lab for tests.
Virtual care can be a great option if, for instance, you have flu-like symptoms. Or you could use it if your child has a sore throat. You can also talk with experienced, licensed psychiatrists and therapists about mental health needs, including anxiety, stress, workplace concerns, and insomnia. This care is available seven days a week, from the privacy of your home.
It also works well for managing some long-term health problems. And if you live far from a specialist, you can get regular follow-up care without having to go to the doctor’s office every time. Kaiser also offers services in addition to scheduled phone and video visits at a $0 cost, as well as a chat with a doctor, 24/7 nurse advice line, and E-Visits (online care to treat common conditions).
Copays for virtual care may vary based on the type of care you receive. The conditions for which you can request virtual care, and the associated specialists, are constantly expanding. Be sure to check with your provider.
There are certain times when a virtual visit may make more sense than an in-office visit. Here are some examples:
• Your doctor is not available for an in-office visit,
• You become ill while traveling,
• You need help deciding between urgent care or emergency room care.
Virtual visits are not appropriate for complex or chronic conditions, and injuries requiring bandaging or sprains/broken bones.
Doctors can diagnose and treat a wide range of non-emergency medical conditions, including the following:
• Anxiety/depression,
• Bladder infection/ urinary tract infection,
• Bronchitis,
• Cold/flu,
• Diarrhea,
• Fever,
• Gastrointestinal issues,
• Migraine/headaches,
• Pink eye,
• Rash,
• Sinus problems,
• Skin conditions,
• Sore throat,
• Speech therapy, and
• Stomachache.
Surest Health: Log into the Surest app or website, search “virtual visit,” then register to request an appointment. Once you are registered, you can schedule your virtual care appointment. MEC: Log into your Health Wallet and follow the instructions.
You may choose dental coverage for yourself and your eligible dependents, even if you do not elect ABM medical coverage. The dental plans are PPOs and use the MetLife Dental network, which means you will pay less when you use an in-network provider. You can select one of two plans: the Premium Dental Plan or the Standard Dental Plan. The chart below shows what you will pay for typical dental services and procedures under each plan.
Preventive (two cleanings & exams per year; one bite-wing x-ray per year; additional x-ray benefits for children)
crowns, root canals)
(adults and children)
charge; no deductible applied

Note: If you use an out-of-network provider, you will receive the same reimbursement percentage as shown above, but your provider will not be charging the discounted MetLife dental rates.
You may choose vision coverage for yourself and your eligible dependents, even if you do not elect ABM medical coverage.

Short Term Disability coverage provides added financial resources that can help with medical costs or ongoing living expenses, such as rent, mortgage, or car payments if you become disabled. Here’s how coverage works:
• Benefits are paid when you are sick or hurt and unable to work, up to 60% of your salary (up to 40% in states with state disability). Partial disability benefits are also available.
• You elect a monthly benefit – from $300 to $5,000. All levels of coverage are automatically available, without providing evidence of your good health.
• You may only enroll when you first become eligible, during annual benefits open enrollment, or within 31 days of a QLE.
• Your contributions for coverage are paid through convenient payroll deductions.
• Coverage is portable, which means you can take it with you if you leave ABM, (provided ABM’s Master Policy remains active). More information is available at digital.alight.com/abm.
* If you elect coverage under this plan and are enrolled, you must average at least 16 hours of work per week in order to be eligible to claim benefits. Any contributions you have paid for coverage will not be refunded if your average hours drop below 16. It is your responsibility to drop coverage if your average weekly hours drop below 16.
If you meet the disability definition, you will be eligible to receive a portion of your monthly pre-disability earnings up to a maximum monthly benefit, as shown in the chart below. If you elect coverage when you first become eligible, you will not be required to provide Evidence of Insurability (EOI). If you elect coverage at a later date, you will be subject to this requirement.
Varies depending on your exact age when your disability began
* Benefits are coordinated with any state, Workers’ Compensation, or other benefits you may receive. Other income may offset benefits.
A few important points:
• Benefits begin after 90 days of disability.
• If you had symptoms or received treatment or medication for any condition during the six months prior to your effective date of coverage, you may not be eligible for VLTD payments if you become disabled for that condition during the first 12 months after your VLTD coverage is effective.
You may purchase Voluntary Life and AD&D Insurance for yourself in the following amounts:
• $10,000,
• $25,000, or
• $50,000.
Voluntary Life Insurance coverage provides financial protection to your beneficiaries if you die. AD&D coverage provides a benefit for a qualifying accident which results in the loss of limb(s) or eyesight. If you die in an accident, the AD&D coverage may pay an increased benefit.
* If you elect coverage under this plan and are enrolled, you must average at least 16 hours of work per week in order to be eligible to claim benefits. Any contributions you have paid for coverage will not be refunded if your average hours drop below 16. It is your responsibility to drop coverage if your average weekly hours drop below 16.
If you elect Voluntary Life for yourself, you may purchase Voluntary Life for your spouse and/or child(ren), subject to the following limits:
To age 19
To age 26 if the child is primarily supported by you
Age 19 or more and meets the requirements of a disabled dependent child
Rates are listed for each benefit plan as you go through the enrollment process. Deductions will be taken from your paycheck on an after-tax basis.
New for 2025 enrollment, NYL GBS is offering an opportunity to purchase Voluntary Life Insurance without having to answer health questions (also known as providing Evidence of Insurability or EOI). This is referred to as guaranteed issue.
When you enroll or increase current coverage for 2025, these are your guaranteed issue amounts:
Team Member – You may purchase up to $25,000 without providing EOI.
Spouse – You may purchase up to $25,000 without providing EOI.
Amounts you and/or your spouse elect exceeding the guaranteed issue shown above will require completion of an EOI form and are subject to approval by NYL GBS. Child life insurance is never subject to EOI.
Note that if you enroll or change your coverage amount due to a QLE, you may increase or elect new coverage by providing EOI.
IMPORTANT: Legacy Able team members with existing coverage with NYL GBS should read the important information below.
If you are a Legacy Able team member and currently have Voluntary Life Insurance coverage through NYL GBS, please read this important information!
If you make any changes to your Voluntary Life and/or Voluntary Dependent Life Insurance coverage, you will select from ABM’s Voluntary Life and/or Voluntary Dependent Insurance options and will be subject to the rules in place for those plans. You will need to take the steps to complete new beneficiary designations. Note: You cannot change your personal coverage without changing your dependent coverage, and vice versa.
IMPORTANT: Once you move from Able’s coverage options to ABM’s coverage options, you will not be allowed to revert to your Able coverage in the future. That means your current Able coverage will be terminated and your only coverage options will be through ABM.

Your death benefit will be reduced by any accelerated payment made. Certain limits apply.
If your employment ends or you cease to be in an eligible class, you have 62 days from either of these events to continue all or a portion of your Life and/or AD&D (Basic, Voluntary, and Dependent). NYL GBS will send a packet with options. In order to receive your packet within the 62-day timeframe, you must ensure your proper mailing address and termination date are on file with ABM. If you have questions or need assistance in completing the application, call NYL GBS at 1-800-423-1282. Certain age limits apply. Premiums will increase at that time. For additional information, refer to your certificate located at the ABM Benefits Center on digital.alight.com/abm for details.
Certain plans require you to name a beneficiary who will receive the benefit in the event of your death. It is important to keep your beneficiary designations up to date, particularly if you have a QLE that may change your family situation. You can update your beneficiary designation at any time or find summaries of these plans on the enrollment portal at digital.alight.com/abm.

Two Contribution Types – You may choose to make traditional pre-tax contributions, Roth 401(k) contributions, or a combination of both. You can derive potential tax benefits now or later, depending on the option you choose.
• With traditional pre-tax contributions, you reduce your current taxable income and pay taxes on these contributions and their earnings at a later date.
• With after-tax Roth contributions, you pay taxes now, so you will not need to pay taxes on these amounts at a later date. And Roth earnings are generally tax-free if a qualified distribution is taken.
Both pre-tax and Roth contributions are subject to certain IRS limits each year. Consider whether your tax rate will be lower or higher in retirement to see which contribution type may be right for you.
Maximum Contribution Amount – You may defer (contribute) up to 50% of your eligible earnings once you are eligible for the plan, pre-tax, up to the annual IRS limits. The annual pre-tax limit for 2025 is $23,500. If you will reach age 50 in 2025 or are already older than 50, you can defer additional amounts called “Catch Up Contributions.” The annual catch up amount for 2025 is $7,500.
Company Match – In addition to your contributions, ABM may pay into your savings account if you choose to contribute to the account. Matching contributions, if any, from ABM will help your savings grow at an even faster rate.
Vesting – Your contributions and match are immediately vested. This means you have a non-forfeitable right to all money in your account.
Investment Options – Through Merrill, you have a variety of investment options. If you are not sure how to invest the money in your account, a Merrill representative can offer guidance.
One-Stop Account Management – Contact Merrill to enroll, see available investment options, change your contributions, change your investment elections, and designate a beneficiary.
At ABM, you’re not just a team member. You can also be a Company owner! The ESPP is a convenient way to purchase ABM common stock through payroll deductions at a 5% discount. Once enrolled, you can purchase ABM common stock each month through payroll deduction (minimum 1%, maximum 10% of your base pay).
The Company provides a 5% discount on the stock price to team members. The price per share of stock will be 95% of the average of the high and low ABM stock price on the last trading day of any calendar month. Additionally, you save money because there is no commission charged to purchase the stock. Stock must be held for six months from the purchase date.
It's easy to set up access to your ESPP on Benefits OnLine® (see QR code).
• Go to Benefits OnLine at benefits.ml.com, select “Create your User ID now” and follow the prompts. You’ll need your Social Security number. If you already have a User ID and password for Benefits OnLine, you do not need to create new ones.
• Open the brokerage account you'll need for your ESPP. After you log in, select your ESPP’s name on the “Home” page and go to “Brokerage/Sell Shares.” Then, select “Open an Account” and follow the prompts. For more information about getting started, view your ESPP Guide, which is available in the “Documents” section of Benefits OnLine.
Eligibility and Plan details are explained in the ESPP Guide and the ABM Employee Stock Purchase Plan Prospectus, available at Benefits OnLine. You should read the Prospectus carefully before you decide to participate in the ESPP.
