ChoosingaHealthPlan

Whichplanisrightforyou?

Consider which plan features are most important to you.

Do you want to:

Pay the lowest premium cost, which may make it the least expensive option if you expect to have low health care usage?

Balance your out-of-pocket and paycheck costs with a moderate premium cost?

Pay the highest premium cost in order to keep your out-of-pocket costs as low as possible when you need care?

Open and contribute to a tax-free HSA, which has no “use it or lose it” rule and offers the opportunity to invest money for future medical costs?

MedicalPlanCosts

You and Groupe SEB share the cost of your medical benefits Groupe SEB pays a generous portion of the total cost and you pay the remainder through payroll deductions Your specific cost is based on the plan and coverage level you select

ACloserLookattheHDHP

The High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) costs you less from your paycheck, so you keep more of your money This rewards you for taking an active role as a health care consumer and making smart decisions about your health care spending As a result, you could pay less for your annual medical costs

Lower paycheck costs

Your per-paycheck costs are lower compared to Groupe SEB’s other health plans, giving you the opportunity to contribute the cost savings to a tax-free Health Savings Account (HSA). You pay for your initial medical costs until you meet your annual deductible, and then you pay a percentage of any further costs until you reach the annual out-of-pocket maximum

Tax-advantaged savings account

To help you pay your deductible and other out-ofpocket costs, the HDHP lets you open a Health Savings Account (HSA) and make before-tax contributions directly from your paycheck

Groupe SEB will also contribute to your HSA to help cover your annual deductible:

All withdrawals from your HSA are tax-free, as long as you use the money to pay for eligible health care expenses

In addition, all the money in the account is yours and will never be forfeited It rolls over from year to year, and you can take it with you if you leave the company or retire

After age 65, you can withdraw funds for any reason without a tax penalty you pay ordinary income tax only if the withdrawal isn’t for eligible health care expenses.

Free in-network preventive care

As with all Groupe SEB health plans, preventive care is fully covered you pay nothing toward your deductible and no copays when you receive care from in-network providers

Preventive care includes annual physicals, well-child and well-woman exams, immunizations, flu shots, and cancer screenings

Extensive provider network

The HDHP uses Cigna’s large network of doctors and other health care providers.

Spending and Savings Accounts

Your contributions, and any company contributions to the Health Savings Account may help pay your deductible and coinsurance

Note:Youwon’tpayfederaltaxesonHSAcontributions.However,youmaypaystatetaxesdependingonyourresidence. Consultyourtaxadvisortolearnmore.

HealthSavingsAccount(HSA)

If you enroll in the HDHP, you are eligible to open an HSA. An HSA is a tax-free savings account you can use to pay for eligible health expenses anytime, even in retirement.

HowdoesanHSAwork?

Build tax-free savings. You can make before-tax deductions from your paycheck into your HSA, allowing you to save money by using tax-free dollars to pay for eligible medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses. The total amount that can be contributed to your HSA each year is limited by the IRS. The following limits for 2026 include any company contributions you receive from Groupe SEB:

Up to $4,400 for employee-only coverage.

Up to $8,750 if you cover dependents.

Add $1,000 to these limits if you’re age 55 or older.

Receive Company contributions. For 2026, Groupe SEB will make the following contribution to your account:

Health Fund $200 / Value Plan $100 for employee-only coverage.

Health Fund $1,000 / Value Plan $500 if you cover dependents.

Keep your money. Unlike an FSA, the money in your HAS is always yours to keep and can be rolled over from year to year. You can take your unused balance with you when you retire or leave Groupe SEB.

Earn interest and invest for the future. Once your interestbearing HSA reaches a minimum balance, you can start an investment account, which offers a variety of no-load mutual funds similar to 401(k) investments.

USINGYOURHSA

Use it like a bank account. Pay for eligible medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses for yourself and your family by swiping your HSA debit card or reimburse yourself for payments you’ve made (up to the available balance in your account). Keep in mind that you may only access money that is actually in your HSA when making a purchase or withdrawal. There’s no need to turn in receipts (but keep them for your records).

Never pay taxes. Contributions are made on a before-tax basis, and your withdrawals will never be taxed when used for eligible expenses. Any interest or earnings on your HSA balance build tax-free, too*

*Money in an HSA grows tax-free and can be withdrawn tax-free if it is used to pay for qualified health care expenses (for a list of eligible expenses, see IRS Publication 502, available at www.irs.gov). If money is used for ineligible expenses, you will pay ordinary income tax on the amount withdrawn plus a penalty tax before age 65. After age 65, withdrawals for ineligible expenses are not penalized. Please review your state regulations and talk with a tax advisor as you may have to pay state taxes depending on your residency.

HSAeligibility

To establish and contribute to an HSA, you:

Must be enrolled in a high-deductible health plan, like Groupe SEB’s Health Fund or Value Plan.

Cannot be covered by any other medical plan that is not a qualified high-deductible plan. This includes a spouse’s medical coverage unless it’s an HDHP.

Cannot be enrolled in a traditional Health Care FSA in 2026.

Cannot be enrolled in Medicare, including Parts A or B, Medicaid, or TRICARE.

Cannot be claimed as a dependent on another person’s tax return.

Cannot be a veteran who has received treatment, other than preventive care, through the Department of Veterans Affairs within the past three months.

When you enroll in the HDHP medical plan, you will be eligible for the HSA account. Elect how much you want to contribute up to the IRS limit.

Groupe SEB will deposit an employer contribution into your account. You can change how much you contribute throughout the year if it doesn’t exceed the IRS limit.

Use your HSA balance to pay for eligible expenses, tax-free, including your deductible, coinsurance, prescriptions, and more

Unused money in your HSA automatically rolls over from year to year. You never lose funds in your HSA.

FlexibleSpendingAccounts(FSAs)

Tax-advantaged FSAs are a great way to save money. The money you contribute to these accounts comes out of your paycheck without being taxed, and you withdraw it tax-free when you pay for eligible health care and dependent care expenses. Remember, you can’t have a fullservice Health Care FSA and an HSA at the same time.

Contributionlimits.

Set aside up to $3,400 for eligible health care expenses and $7,500 for dependent care expenses. Unused funds, except what can be rolled over, are forfeited at year’s end.

Good preventive care can help you stay healthy and detect any “silent” problems early, when they’re most likely to be treatable. Most in-network preventive services are covered in full, so there’s no excuse to skip them.

Have a routine physical exam each year You will build a relationship with your doctor and can reduce your risk for many serious conditions.

Get regular dental cleanings. Numerous studies show a link between regular dental cleanings and disease prevention including lower risks of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke

See your eye doctor at least once every two years If you have certain health risks, such as diabetes or high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend more frequent eye exams

When you don’t feel well, or your child is sick, the last thing you want to do is leave the comfort of your home to sit in a crowded waiting room full of other sick people. A virtual visit, included as a covered service under your medical plan, lets you see and talk to a doctor from the comfort of your home or office without an appointment. When you seek care through virtual visits, you’ll pay a flat copay amount, which is the same as you would pay for an office visit. Consider a virtual visit when your doctor isn’t available, you become ill while traveling, or you’re considering visiting a hospital emergency room for a non-emergency health condition.

VoluntaryBenefits

Groupe SEB s voluntary benefits, such as accident, critical illness, and hospital indemnity insurance, provide an added layer of financial protection by paying a cash benefit to help you cover various expenses not covered under a major medical plan.

CignaSupplementalHealthPlans AccidentInsurance

Accident insurance supplements your primary medical plan and disability programs by providing cash benefits directly to you in cases of accidental injuries. You can use this money to help pay for uncovered medical expenses, such as your deductible or coinsurance, or for ongoing living expenses, such as your mortgage or rent.

MeetMary

A broken leg meant Mary had to stay off her feet for a while, with several weeks of physical therapy. While she was recovering, Mary’s accident insurance helped her cover the costs.

Mary used part of her accident insurance benefit toward her physical therapy expenses. She used the rest toward after school care for her children while she was at physical therapy appointments.

A heart attack forced Steve to take an extended leave. While he has medical insurance through Groupe SEB, Steve was still responsible for paying out-of- pocket costs that he didn’t anticipate. With his critical illness insurance, Steve was able to afford the treatment he needed without dipping into his savings.

Steve used part of his critical illness insurance benefit toward his deductible and coinsurance for a surgery and hospital stay. He used the rest toward ongoing costs for outpatient cardiac rehabilitation and prescription medications.

A trip to the hospital can be stressful, and so can the bills. Even with a major medical plan, you may still be responsible for copays, deductibles, and other out-of- pocket costs. A hospital indemnity plan provides supplemental payments directly to you for expenses that your medical plan doesn't cover for hospital stays.

Critical Illness insurance provides a cash benefit when a covered person is diagnosed with a covered critical illness or event after coverage is in effect. Benefit amounts available $10,000, $20,000. $30,000.

As your account balance grows, you earn a larger amount due to compounding interest Take for example two employees Employee One begins contributing his first year of employment, while Employee Two waits until his 10th year of employment Both employees contribute 5% to their 401(k) and receive a 4% match from Groupe SEB.* When both employees are ready to retire at age 67, Employee One who signed up for the 401(k) plan the first year has nearly double the amount of Employee Two who waited several years to join the plan Employee One’s money was invested longer and was able to take advantage of compounding interest for more years Investing involves risk, including the risk of loss Before investing, carefully consider the funds’ or investment options’ objectives, risks, charges, and expenses For questions, call 1-800-547-7754

The plan offers you a variety of investment options to choose from. It’s important to carefully consider your investment goals, retirement timeframe, and risk tolerance when deciding how to invest your plan contributions. Visit http://www.Principal.com to learn more about your investment options.

Vesting Investmentelections

Employer contributions are vested according to a six-year graded schedule

There are two main types of 401(k) retirement savings plans: traditional and Roth. Groupe SEB offers both. The difference really comes down to a single word: TAXES.

TRADITIONAL 401(k) - This one’s for anyone who wants to put off paying taxes. Any money you save or invest isn’t taxed until you withdraw it in retirement. Withdrawals are considered income and will be taxed at your current (retirement) federal and state tax rates. A traditional 401(k) also reduces your overall annual income, so you’ll pay lower taxes while working.

Example: If your annual salary is $35,000 and you contribute $5,000 to a traditional 401(k), you’ll only pay taxes on $30,000 for that year.

ROTH 401(k) - A Roth 401(k) functions similarly to a traditional 401(k) plan, with one big difference — you make contributions to a Roth 401(k) with after-tax dollars. This type of plan is for anyone who wants to pay taxes now. Then, when you pull money out of the plan during retirement, you won’t pay any taxes on the withdrawal.

Traditional401(k)Highlights

Pros:

Employee-managed – Easy way to save using payroll deductions. Choose from several investment funds

Contribute more each year – Higher contribution limit and catch-up feature for anyone 50 or older 2026 Limit: $24,500 ($8,000 after the age of 50) Note: Limits are for traditional and Roth 401(k) contributions combined

Increased savings potential – Contributions aren’t taxed when deducted from your paycheck, so you save more each pay period This means more interest earned, and more money in the long run.

Cons:

Taxes at withdrawal – When you take money out at retirement, you’ll pay taxes at the current federal and state rates, which could be higher if rates rise each year

Pros:

Employee-managed – Easy way to save using payroll deductions. Choose from several investment funds

Similar contributions – A Roth 401(k) has the same annual contribution limits as a traditional 401(k) Note: Limits are for traditional and Roth 401(k) contributions combined

Secure – Again, this type of 401(k) is transferable if you leave the Company

No taxes upon withdrawal – When you retire, the money you see in your Roth 401(k) is what you get no tax deductions occur.

Cons:

Contributions are not tax deductible –Roth contributions do not allow you to lower your taxable income at the time contributions are withheld from your paycheck
