FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS

You made a great decision by enrolling in a flexible spending account (FSA) and/or dependent care account (DCA)! Now that you’ve gotten the difficult decisions out of the way, use this packet to learn how to best take advantage of your account. Let’s get started!

HOW YOUR FSA WORKS

Your FSA is a spending account that can be used to pay for a variety of healthcare expenses.

TWO GREAT PERKS COME WITH YOUR FSA: 1

You will have access to your entire election on the first day of the plan year.

2

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. That means you are increasing your take-home pay simply by participating!

WHAT CAN I SPEND MY FSA FUNDS ON? 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.

Certain over-the-counter (OTC) Diabetic equipment healthcare expenses such as and supplies, durable Band-aids, medicine, First Aid medical equipment, supplies, etc. Note: OTC and qualified medical medicines require a doctor’s products or services prescription to be eligible. provided by a doctor. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Routine exams, dental care, prescription drugs, eye care, and hearing aids.

Prescription glasses and sunglasses.

HOW YOUR DCA WORKS

Your DCA is a spending account that can be used to pay for services like daycare, nursery school, and elder care. By simply participating in a DCA, you get to experience benefits like:

1

A higher take-home pay thanks to your pre-tax payroll deductions

2

Savings on daycare and other dependent care services you’re already paying for

3

Easy-to-use MyAmeriflex Debit Mastercard to make purchases

WHAT CAN I SPEND MY DCA FUNDS ON?

Start spending You’re ready to make purchases! Be sure to hang on to your receipts anytime you make a purchase. Login to MyAmeriflex for a full list of eligible expenses.

The “Use It or Lose It” 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 it or lose it” 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.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I check my account balance?

You can check your real-time balance online by logging into MyAmeriflex or through the MyAmeriflex Mobile App. Ameriflex also provides 24/7 access to automated account information via telephone. Call 888.868.FLEX (3539) and follow the prompts to listen to balance and transaction information for your account.

How do I order a new card?

You can request a free replacement card online through your Ameriflex account or through the MyAmeriflex Mobile App. What happens if I don’t use my FSA account balance by the end the year?

By law, employers are not allowed to return leftover money to participants. Furthermore, funds are forfeited if you leave your employer.

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.

How do these programs save me money on taxes?

Since the accounts are tax-advantaged, you get to leverage pre-tax payroll deductions -- increasing your take-home pay and saving you money on everyday expenses. In many cases, you can experience savings of up to 40% on expenses eligible under your employer-sponsored plan.

Can I change my annual election amount?

FSA elections are irrevocable and cannot be changed during the period of coverage unless there is a permitted change in election event, such as a change in marital status, birth or adoption of a child, change in an employment status, etc. The event and contribution change must coincide.

How can I change my reimbursement setting to add direct deposit?

To set up direct deposit, simply login to MyAmeriflex, select reimbursement settings under the my account tab, then enter your banking information. We also offer a paper direct deposit form that can be mailed, faxed, or emailed to Ameriflex.

Will pre-taxing have an impact on Social Security benefits?

Reductions in your taxable pay may lead to a reduction in Social Security benefits; however, for most employees, the reduction in Social Security benefits is insignificant when compared to the value of paying lower taxes now.

Tax Credits vs. Dependent Care Spending Accounts If you participate in a Dependent Care Spending Account, you cannot claim credits on your income tax return for the same expenses. Also, any amount reimbursed under this plan will reduce the amount of other dependent care expenses that you can claim for purposes of tax credits. Before you enroll in a Dependent Day Care Account, evaluate whether the federal income tax credit or the Dependent Care Spending Account is best for you.

ONE-TIME CLAIM FOR DEPENDENT CARE SERVICES Ameriflex makes it easy to get reimbursed automatically from your account as your funds build up during the year. If you’re paying for childcare or elderly care each month, you can avoid submitting a manual claim every month to get reimbursed for expenses you paid out of pocket. All you have to do is submit one Claim Form for the entire year that shows the date range for which childcare/eldercare services will be provided, along with a signature from the service provider on the designated line of the form. As long as the form is signed by the provider, no receipt is needed. Once the recurring claim has been processed, Ameriflex will automatically reimburse you every month with a check or direct deposit as funds in your Dependent Care Account become available.

Understanding Your Dental Benefits Plan With the MetLife Preferred Dentist Program you can visit the dentist of your choice – an “in-network” dentist (a participating MetLife dentist) or an “out-ofnetwork” dentist. · Plan benefits for in-network services are based on the percentage of the Negotiated fee –the fee that in-network dentists have agreed to accept as payment in full for covered services, subject to any co-payments, deductibles, cost sharing and benefit maximums. Negotiated fees are subject to change. · Plan benefits for out-of-network services are based on a percentage of the Reasonable and Customary (R&C) charge. If you choose a dentist who does not participate in the network, your out-of-pocket expenses may be higher, since you will be responsible for paying any difference between the dentist's fee and your plan's payment for the approved service. Please refer to the Selected Covered Services and Frequency Limitations page of this document for details regarding how R&C charges are defined under this plan.

If you are not already registered, just go to www.metlife.com/mybenefits and follow the easy registration instructions.

Certain plan benefits are based on a percentage of the negotiated fee. This is the amount that participating dentists have agreed to accept as payment in full. If your plan benefits are based on a percentage of the Reasonable and Customary (R&C) charges, your out-of-pocket expenses may be more, since you will be responsible for paying any difference between the dentist's fee and your plan's payment for the approved service.

If you are enrolled for dependent coverage, a maximum family deductible may apply.

Savings from enrolling in a dental benefits plan will depend on various factors, including the cost of the plan, how often participants visit the dentist and the cost of services rendered.

The service categories and plan limitations shown in this document represent an overview of your plan benefits, but are not a complete description of the plan. Before making any purchase or enrollment decision you should review the certificate of insurance which is available through MetLife or your employer. In the event of a conflict between this overview and your certificate of insurance, your certificate of insurance governs. Like most group dental insurance policies, MetLife group policies contain certain exclusions, limitations and waiting periods and terms for keeping them in force. The certificate of insurance sets forth all plan terms and provisions, including all exclusions and limitations. *Alternate Benefits: Your dental plan provides that if there are two or more professionally acceptable dental treatment alternatives for a dental condition, your plan bases reimbursement, and the associated procedure charge, on the least costly treatment alternative. If you and your dentist have agreed on a treatment that is more costly than the treatment upon which the plan benefit is based, you will be responsible for any additional payment responsibility. To avoid any misunderstandings, we suggest you discuss treatment options with your dentist before services are rendered, and obtain a pretreatment estimate of benefits prior to receiving certain high cost services such as crowns, bridges or dentures. You and your dentist will each receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) outlining the services provided, your plan’s reimbursement for those services, and your out-of-pocket expense. Actual payments may vary from the pretreatment estimate depending upon annual maximums, plan frequency limits, deductibles and other limits applicable at time of payment.

1. The Reasonable and Customary charge is based on the lowest of the: "Actual Charge" (the dentist’s actual charge); or "Usual Charge" (the dentist’s usual charge for the same or similar services); or "Customary Charge" (the 90th percentile charge of most dentists in the same geographic area for the same or similar services as determined by MetLife).

The service categories and plan limitations shown above represent an overview of your plan benefits. This document presents the majority of services within each category, but is not a complete description of the plan.

15

Exclusions We will not pay Dental Insurance benefits for charges incurred for: 1. Services which are not Dentally Necessary, those which do not meet generally accepted standards of care for treating the particular dental condition, or which We deem experimental in nature.

COMMON QUESTIONS… IMPORTANT ANSWERS Who is a participating dentist?

A participating dentist is a general dentist or specialist who has agreed to accept MetLife's negotiated fees as payment in full for services provided to plan participants. Based on internal analysis by MetLife, negotiated fees typically range from 15-45% below the average fees charged for the same services by dentists in the same geographic area. *Negotiated Fees refers to the fees that in-network dentists have agreed to accept as payment in full for covered services, subject to any copayments, deductibles, cost sharing and benefits maximums. Negotiated fees are subject to change.

How do I find a participating dentist?

You can access a list of participating dentists with directions and mapping capabilities online at www.metlife.com/dental or call 1-800-ASK-4-MET (800-275-4638) to have a list faxed or mailed to you based upon the requested ZIP code. Please Note: Be sure to verify provider participation when you make your appointment.

May I choose a non-participating dentist?

Yes. You are always free to select the dentist of your choice. However, if you choose a dentist who does not participate in the MetLife program, your out-of-pocket expenses may be greater, since you will be responsible to pay for any difference between the dentist's fee and your plan's payment for the approved service. If you receive services from a participating dentist, you are only responsible for the difference between the in-network fee for the service provided and your plan's payment for the approved service. Please note: any plan deductibles must be met before benefits are paid.

Can my dentist apply for participation in network?

Yes. If your current dentist does not participate in the MetLife network and you would like to encourage him or her to apply, tell your dentist to visit www.metdental.com, or call 1-877-MET-DDS9 for an application. The website and phone number are designed for use by dental professionals only.

How are claims processed?

Dentists may submit your claims for you, which means you have little or no paperwork. You can track your claims online and even receive e-mail alerts when a claim has been processed. If you need a claim form, you can find one online at www.metlife.com/dental or request one by calling 1-800-ASK-4-MET (800-275-4638).

Can I find out what my out-of-pocket expenses will be before receiving a service?

Yes. With pre-treatment estimates, you never have to wonder what your out-of-pocket expense will be. MetLife recommends that you request a pre-treatment estimate for services in excess of $300 (This often applies to services such as crowns, bridges, inlays, and periodontics). To receive a benefit estimate, simply have your dentist submit a request for a pre-treatment estimate online at www.metdental.com or call 1-877-MET-DDS9 (638-3379). You and your dentist will receive a benefit estimate online or by fax for most procedures while you are still in the office so you can discuss treatment and payment options and have the procedure scheduled on the spot. Actual payments may vary depending upon plan maximums, deductibles, frequency limits and other conditions at time of payment.

Do I need an ID card?

No, you do not need to present an ID card to confirm that you are eligible. You should notify your dentist that you participate in MetLife's PDP. Your dentist can easily verify information about your coverage through a toll-free automated Computer Voice Response system.

Do my dependents have to visit the same dentist that I select?

No, you and your dependents each have the freedom to choose any dentist.

If I do not enroll during my initial enrollment period can I still purchase Dental Insurance at a later date?

Yes, eligible employees who do not elect coverage during their 31-day application period may still elect coverage later. Dental coverage elected after the 31-day application period is subject to the following waiting periods:* • No waiting period for Preventive Services • 6 months on Basic Restorative (Fillings)

Please consult your Benefits Administrator or your certificate for this plan information.

Am I eligible for all benefits the first day of coverage?

Your plan may include benefit waiting periods. Please refer to the certificate of insurance or your Benefits Administrator for details about the services that are subject to the waiting periods and the length of time they apply.

How can I learn about what dentists in my area charge for different procedures?

If you have MyBenefits you can access the Dental Procedure Tool. You can use the tool to look up average in- and out-of-network fees for dental services in your area. * You’ll find fees for services such as exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, and more. Just log in at www.metlife.com/mybenefits. * The Dental Procedure Fee Tool application is provided by VerifPoint, an independent vendor. Network fee information is supplied to VerifPoint by MetLife and is not available for providers who participate with MetLife through a third-party. Out-of-network fee information is provided by VerifPoint. This tool does not provide the payment information used by MetLife when processing your claims. Prior to receiving services, pretreatment estimates through your dentist will provide the most accurate fee and payment information Can MetLife help me find a dentist outside of the U.S. if I am traveling?

Yes. Through MetLife’s International Dental Travel Assistance program1 you can obtain a referral to a local dentist by calling 1-312-356-5970 (collect) when outside the U.S. to receive immediate care until you can see your dentist.

Coverage will be considered under your out-of-network2 benefits. Please remember to hold on to all receipts to submit a dental claim.

1 International Dental Travel Assistance services are administered by AXA Assistance USA, Inc. Certain benefits provided under the Travel Assistance program are underwritten by Virginia Surety Company, Inc. AXA Assistance and Virginia Surety are not affiliated with MetLife, and the services and benefits they provide are separate and apart from the insurance provided by MetLife.

frequently asked questions about Colonial Life’s Educator Income Protection insurance:

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

How do I file a claim Visit coloniallife.com or call our Policyholder Service Center at 1.800.325.4368 for additional information.

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

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 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.

When am I considered totally disabled?

Totally disabled means you are: l Unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job; l Not, in fact, working at any job; and l Under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

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.

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

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: l You are unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your job for 20 hours or more per week, l You are able to work at your job or your place of employment for less than 20 hours per week, l Your employer will allow you to return to your job or place of employment for less than 20 hours per week; and l You are under the regular and appropriate care of a doctor.

The total disability benefit must have been paid for at least one full month immediately prior to your being partially disabled.

When do disability benefits end?

The Total Disability Benefit will end on the policy anniversary date on or next following your 70th birthday.

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

What if I change employers or retire?

What is a covered accident or a covered sickness?

A covered accident is an accident. A covered sickness means an illness, infection, disease or any other abnormal physical condition.

A covered accident or covered sickness: Occurs after the effective date of the policy; l Occurs while the policy is in force; and l Is of a type listed on the Policy Schedule; and l Is not excluded by name or specific description in the policy. l

EXCLUSIONS We will not pay benefits for losses that are caused by or are the result of: alcoholism or drug addiction; flying; hazardous avocations; felonies or illegal occupations; having a pre-existing condition as defined and limited by the policy; psychiatric or psychological condition; racing; semi-professional or professional sports; suicide or self-inflicted injury, war or armed conflict.

Can I apply for guaranteed-issue coverage for my spouse or dependent children at the initial enrollment?

Yes, but their coverage will not be effective if they are currently totally disabled. Being totally disabled5 means the inability to perform two or more activities of daily living, being confined in a hospital or similar institution, or being unable to attend school outside the home (for a dependent child ages age 5 to 26).

The ability to work does not determine disability. You can pay premiums on insurance for your dependents with no health questions asked. However, coverage isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t effective until the earlier of the date they are no longer totally disabled or two years after the date that coverage would have otherwise become effective for the spouse or dependent child. This provision does not apply to newborn children born while dependent insurance is in effect.

This policy has exclusions and limitations. For cost and complete details, see your Colonial Life benefits counselor. Applicable to policy number GTL1.0-P and certificate number GTL 1.0-C (including state abbreviations where used). Coverage may vary by state and may not be available in all states. This is not an insurance contract and only the actual policy provisions will control.

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: A beneficiary can receive a benefit that is typically free from income tax.

The policy’s accelerated death benefit can pay a percentage of the death benefit if the covered person is diagnosed with a terminal illness.

You can convert it to a Colonial Life cash value insurance plan, with no proof of good health, to age 75.

Coverage is guaranteed renewable up to age 95 as long as premiums are paid when due.

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. For cost and complete details of the coverage, call or write your Colonial Life benefits counselor or the company.

General Notice of COBRA Continuation Coverage Rights ** Continuation Coverage Rights Under COBRA** Introduction You are receiving this notice because you recently gained coverage under a group health plan (the Plan). This notice has important information about your right to COBRA continuation coverage, which is a temporary extension of coverage under the Plan. This notice explains COBRA continuation coverage, when it may become available to you and your family, and what you need to do to protect your right to get it. When you become eligible for COBRA, you may also become eligible for other coverage options that may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage.

The right to COBRA continuation coverage was created by a federal law, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA).

COBRA continuation coverage can become available to you and other members of your family when group health coverage would otherwise end. For more information about your rights and obligations under the Plan and under federal law, you should review the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or contact the Plan Administrator.

You may have other options available to you when you lose group health coverage. For example, you may be eligible to buy an individual plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. By enrolling in coverage through the Marketplace, you may qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and lower out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, you may qualify for a 30-day special enrollment period for another group health plan for which you are eligible (such as a spouse’s plan), even if that plan generally doesn’t accept late enrollees.

What is COBRA continuation coverage?

COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life event. This is also called a “qualifying event.” Specific qualifying events are listed later in this notice. After a qualifying event, COBRA continuation coverage must be offered to each person who is a “qualified beneficiary.” You, your spouse, and your dependent children could become qualified beneficiaries if coverage under the Plan is lost because of the qualifying event. Under the Plan, qualified beneficiaries who elect COBRA continuation coverage must pay for COBRA continuation coverage.

If you’re an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: • Your hours of employment are reduced, or • Your employment ends for any reason other than your gross misconduct.

If you’re the spouse of an employee, you’ll become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: • Your spouse dies; • Your spouse’s hours of employment are reduced; • Your spouse’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct; • Your spouse becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); or • You become divorced or legally separated from your spouse.

Your dependent children will become qualified beneficiaries if they lose coverage under the Plan because of the following qualifying events: • The parent-employee dies; • The parent-employee’s hours of employment are reduced; • The parent-employee’s employment ends for any reason other than his or her gross misconduct; • The parent-employee becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (Part A, Part B, or both); • The parents become divorced or legally separated; or • The child stops being eligible for coverage under the Plan as a “dependent child.”

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

When is COBRA continuation coverage available?

The Plan will offer COBRA continuation coverage to qualified beneficiaries only after the Plan Administrator has been notified that a qualifying event has occurred. The employer must notify the Plan Administrator of the following qualifying events: • The end of employment or reduction of hours of employment; • Death of the employee; • Commencement of a proceeding in bankruptcy with respect to the employer; or • The employee’s becoming entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both).

For all other qualifying events (divorce or legal separation of the employee and spouse or a dependent child’s losing eligibility for coverage as a dependent child), you must notify the Plan Administrator within 60 days after the qualifying event occurs. You must provide this notice to: Susan Gagliardi at susan.gagliardi@arapahoecharter.org . Applicable documentation will be required i.e. court order, certificate of coverage etc.

49

How is COBRA continuation coverage provided?

Once the Plan Administrator receives notice that a qualifying event has occurred, COBRA continuation coverage will be offered to each of the qualified beneficiaries. Each qualified beneficiary will have an independent right to elect COBRA continuation coverage. Covered employees may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their spouses, and parents may elect COBRA continuation coverage on behalf of their children.

COBRA continuation coverage is a temporary continuation of coverage that generally lasts for 18 months due to employment termination or reduction of hours of work. Certain qualifying events, or a second qualifying event during the initial period of coverage, may permit a beneficiary to receive a maximum of 36 months of coverage.

There are also ways in which this 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage can be extended: Disability extension of 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by Social Security to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to get up to an additional 11 months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 29 months.

The disability would have to have started at some time before the 60th day of COBRA continuation coverage and must last at least until the end of the 18-month period of COBRA continuation coverage.

Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage If your family experiences another qualifying event during the 18 months of COBRA continuation coverage, the spouse and dependent children in your family can get up to 18 additional months of COBRA continuation coverage, for a maximum of 36 months, if the Plan is properly notified about the second qualifying event. This extension may be available to the spouse and any dependent children getting COBRA continuation coverage if the employee or former employee dies; becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both); gets divorced or legally separated; or if the dependent child stops being eligible under the Plan as a dependent child. This extension is only available if the second qualifying event would have caused the spouse or dependent child to lose coverage under the Plan had the first qualifying event not occurred.

Are there other coverage options besides COBRA Continuation Coverage?

Yes. Instead of enrolling in COBRA continuation coverage, there may be other coverage options for you and your family through the Health Insurance Marketplace, Medicaid, or other group health plan coverage options (such as a spouse’s plan) through what is called a “special enrollment period.”

Some of these options may cost less than COBRA continuation coverage. You can learn more about many of these options at www.healthcare.gov.

If you have questions Questions concerning your Plan or your COBRA continuation coverage rights should be addressed to the contact or contacts identified below. For more information about your rights under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), including COBRA, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and other laws affecting group health plans, contact the nearest Regional or District Office of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) in your area or visit www.dol.gov/ebsa. (Addresses and phone numbers of Regional and District EBSA Offices are available through EBSA’s website.) For more information about the Marketplace, visit www.HealthCare.gov.

Keep your Plan informed of address changes To protect your family’s rights, let the Plan Administrator know about any changes in the addresses of family members. You should also keep a copy, for your records, of any notices you send to the Plan Administrator.
