Diversified Sourcing Solutions Benefit Guide | 1

A SMARTER WAY TO BETTER HEALTH It’s Your Health.

Get Involved.

Your health is a work in progress that needs your consistent attention and support.

Each choice you make for yourself and your family is part of an ever-changing picture.

Taking steps to improve your health such as going for annual physicals and living a healthy lifestyle can make a positive impact on your well-being.

It’s up to you to take responsibility and get involved, and we are please to offer programs that will support your efforts and help you reach goals.

Preventive Health Care Services

Preventive care includes services like checkups, screenings and immunizations that can help you stay healthy and may help you avoid or delay health problems. Many serious conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are preventable and treatable if caught early. It’s important for everyone to get the preventive care they need. Some examples of preventive care services are: o Blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol tests o Certain cancer screenings, such as mammograms, colonoscopies o Counseling, screenings and vaccines to help ensure healthy pregnancies o Regular well-baby and well-child visits

Immunizations

Some immunizations and vaccinations are also considered preventive care services.

Standard immunizations recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Include: hepatitis A and B, diphtheria, polio, pneumonia, measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus and influenza although these may be subject to age and/or frequency restrictions.

Understanding What’s Covered

Generally speaking, if a service is considered preventive care, it will be covered at 100%. If it’s not, it may still be covered subject to a copay, deductible or coinsurance.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that services considered preventive care be covered by your health plan at 100% in-network, without a copay, deductible or coinsurance. To get specifics about your plan’s preventive care coverage, call the customer service number on your member ID card. You may want to ask your doctor if the services you’re receiving at a preventive care visit (such as an annual checkup) are all considered standard preventive care.

If any service performed at an annual checkup is as a result of a prior diagnosed condition, the office visit may not be processed as preventive and you may be responsible for a copay, coinsurance or deductible. To learn more about the ACA or preventive care and coverage, visit www.healthcare.gov.

HEALTH REIMBURSEMENT ACCOUNT(HRA)

An HRA is an employee benefit that is provided by Diversified Sourcing Solutions at no cost to the employees covered under the Cigna $5000 100/70 Traditional Health Insurance Plan.

The HRA will reimburse participants for expenses which are covered by the Cigna medical plan but are not normally paid until participants meet certain deductible thresholds. This means even though the insured group health plan itself has a higher in-network deductible, Diversified Sourcing Solutions will reimburse the latter 50% of the in-network deductible, after you satisfy the first $2,500. The maximum reimbursement is two per family, if you are covering dependents.

Please provide your Cigna Explanation of Benefits (EOB) as proof of satisfying your deductible.

HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA) The Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged, interest-bearing account used to pay for eligible health care expenses. You can open and contribute to an HSA if you are enrolled in the Cigna Plan 2 High Deductible HSA $3500 Plan. You can make contributions to the HSA and all money in the account is yours to keep — even if you leave Diversified Sourcing Solutions.

You can withdraw your funds to pay for current qualified medical, dental and vision care expenses, or you can keep your money in the HSA to pay for future expenses. At the end of the year, any money in the HSA rolls over to the next year.

You never lose it.

You may choose to have the convenience of a pre-tax deferral from your paycheck as a direct deposit into your HSA. If you choose this, Diversified Sourcing Solutions requires that you make a minimum weekly contribution of $5.00 ($260.00 annually).

Diversified Sourcing Solutions Benefit Guide | 23

IMPORTANT INFORMATION This guide provides a summary of you employee benefits rights and regulations as determined by Federal and State Laws. Information included in this guide includes the following: Special Open Enrollment Rights Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) Premium Assistance

General Notice of the Cobra Continuations Rights Affordable Care Act (ACA) – Insurance Mandate

Health Insurance Marketplace Coverage Options and Your Group Health Coverage Affordable Care Act (ACA) – Preventive Services for Non-grandfathered Plans Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act of 1996 Break Time for Nursing Mothers Under the Fair Labor Standards Acts (FLSA) Women’s Health & Cancer Rights Act The Generic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) HIPAA Privacy Rules

SPECIAL OPEN ENROLLMENT RIGHTS This notice is being provided to ensure that you understand your right to apply for group health insurance coverage. A special enrollment period is a time outside of the annual open enrollment period during which you and your family have a right to sign up for health coverage. In the Marketplace, you qualify for a special enrollment period 60 days following certain life events that involve a change in family status (for example, marriage or birth of a child) or loss of other health coverage. Job-based plans must provide a special enrollment period of 30 days.

Some events will require additional documentation to be submitted with the application at the time of enrollment.

You should read this notice even if you plan to waive coverage at this time.

Marriage, Birth, or Adoption

Loss of Other Coverage

Medicaid or CHIP

If you have a new dependent as a result of a marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, or placement for adoption.

If you are declining coverage for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in this plan if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other coverage (or if the employer stops contributing toward your or your dependents’ other coverage). However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after your or your dependents’ other coverage ends (or after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage).

If you or your dependents lose eligibility for coverage under Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) or become eligible for a premium assistance subsidy under Medicaid or CHIP, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents. You must request enrollment within 60 days of the loss of Medicaid or CHIP coverage or the determination of eligibility for a premium assistance subsidy.

To request special enrollment or obtain more information, please contact HR. Diversified Sourcing Solutions Benefit Guide | 24

IMPORTANT INFORMATION COBRA Continuation of 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. For additional information regarding COBRA qualifying events, how coverage is provided and actions required to participate in COBRA coverage, please see your Human Resources department.

Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act The group health coverage provided complies with the Newborns’ and Mothers’ Health Protection Act of 1996. Under this law group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law, restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, Federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable.) In any case, plans and issuers may not, under federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the insurance issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).

Premium Assistance under Medical and CHIP If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) and you are eligible for health coverage from your employer, your State may have a premium assistance program that can help you pay for coverage. These States use funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs to help people who are eligible for employersponsored health coverage but need assistance in paying their health premiums. If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP you can contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available. If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, you can contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, you can ask the State if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan. Please see Human Resources for a list of state Medicaid or CHIP offices to find out more about premium assistance.

Special Enrollment Events An Eligible Person and/or Dependent may also be able to enroll during a special enrollment period. A special enrollment period is not available to an Eligible Person and his or her dependents if coverage under the prior plan was terminated for cause, or because premiums were not paid on a timely basis.

An Eligible Person and/or Dependent does not need to elect COBRA continuation coverage to preserve special enrollment rights. Special enrollment is available to an Eligible Person and/or Dependent even if COBRA is elected.

Please be aware that most special enrollment events require action within 30 days of the event. Please see Human Resources for a list of special enrollment opportunities and procedures.

Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act If you have had or are going to have a mastectomy , you may be entitled to certain benefits under the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998 (WHCRA). For individuals receiving mastectomy-related benefits, coverage will be provided in a manner determined in consultation with the attending physician and the patient, for: All stages of reconstruction of the breast on which the mastectomy has been performed; Surgery and reconstruction of the other breast to produce a symmetrical appearance; and Prostheses and treatment of physical complications of the mastectomy, including lymphedemas. These benefits will be provided subject to deductibles and coinsurance applicable to other medical and surgical benefits provided under this plan. If you would like more information on WHCRA benefits, call your plan administrator.

Diversified Sourcing Solutions Benefit Guide | 25

IMPORTANT INFORMATION GINA The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) prohibits health benefit plans from discriminating on the basis of genetic information in regards to eligibility, premium and contributions. This generally also means that private employers with more than 15 employees, its health plan or “business associate” of the employer, cannot collect or use genetic information, (including family medical history information). The once exception would be that a minimum amount of genetic testing results make be used to make a determination regarding a claim.

You should know that GINA is treated as protected health information (PHI) under HIPAA. The plan must provide that an employer cannot request or require that you reveal whether or not you have had genetic testing; nor can your employer require that you participate in a genetic test. An employer cannot use any genetic information to set contribution rates or premiums.

PPACA Compliant Plan Notice Since key parts of the health care law took effect in 2014, there is a new way to buy health insurance: the Health Insurance Marketplace. To assist you as you evaluate options for you and your family, this notice provides some basic information about the new Marketplace and employment-based health coverage offered by your employer.

If your employer offers health coverage that meets the “minimum value” plan standard, you will not be eligible for a tax credit through the Marketplace and may wish to enroll in your employer’s health plan. The “minimum value” plan standard is set by the Affordable Care Act. Your health plans offered by [Company] are ACA compliant plans (surpassing the “minimum value” standard), thus you would not be eligible for the tax credit offered to those who do not have access to such a plan.

NOTE: If you purchase a health plan through the marketplace instead of accepting health coverage offered by your employer, then you will lose the employer contribution to the employer offered coverage. Also, this employer contribution, as well as your employee contribution to employer offered coverage, is excluded from income for Federal and State income tax purposed.

USERRA Notice The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA) established requirements that employers must meet for certain employees who are involved in the uniformed services. In addition to the rights that you have under COBRA, you (the employee) are entitled under USERRA lo continue the coverage that you (and your covered dependents, if any) had under the [Company] plan.

You Have Rights Under Both COBRA and USERRA. Your rights under COBRA and USERRA are similar but not identical. Any election that you make pursuant to COBRA will also be an election under USERRA, and COBRA and USERRA will both apply with respect to the continuation coverage elected. If COBRA and USERRA give you different rights or protections, the law that provides the greater benefit will apply. The administrative policies and procedures described in the attached COBRA Election Notice also apply to USERRA coverage, unless compliance with the procedures is precluded by military necessity or is otherwise impossible or unreasonable under the circumstances.

Definitions "Uniformed services" means the Armed Forces, the Army National Guard, and the Air National Guard when an individual is engaged in active duty for training, inactive duty training, or full-time National Guard duty (i.e., pursuant to orders issued under federal law), the commissioned corps of the Public Health Service, and any other category of persons designated by the President in time of war or national emergency.

"Service in the uniformed services" or "service" means the performance of duty on a voluntary or involuntary basis in the uniformed services under competent authority, including active duty, active and inactive duty for training, National Guard duty under federal statute, a period for which a person is absent from employment for an examination to determine his or her fitness to perform any of these duties, and a period for which a person is absent from employment to perform certain funeral honors duty.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE & MEDICARE CREDITABLE Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with Diversified Sourcing Solutions and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice.

There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage: •

Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium.

•

Diversified Sourcing Solutions’ Traditional Cigna plan is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan.

When Can You Join a Medicare Drug Plan?

You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15th to December 7th. However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan.

What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Diversified Sourcing Solutions coverage will not be affected.

Please review prescription drug coverage plan provisions/options under the certificate booklet provided by Cigna. See pages 7- 9 of the CMS Disclosure of Creditable Coverage To Medicare Part D Eligible Individuals Guidance which outlines the prescription drug plan provisions/ options that Medicare eligible individuals may have available to them when they become eligible for Medicare Part D. If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Diversified Sourcing Solutions coverage, be aware that you and your dependents may not be able to get this coverage back.

When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with Diversified Sourcing Solutions and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later. If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join.

For more information about this notice or your current prescription drug coverage, contact your carrier.

NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will also get it before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan, and if this coverage through Diversified Sourcing Solutions changes. You also may request a copy of this notice at any time.

More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the “Medicare & You” handbook. You’ll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be contacted directly by Medicare drug plans. For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage Visit www.medicare.gov. Call your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (see the inside back cover of your copy of the “Medicare & You” handbook for their telephone number) for personalized help Call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). TTY users should call 1-877-486- 2048. If you have limited income and resources, extra help paying for Medicare prescription drug coverage is available. For information about this extra help, visit Social Security on the web at www.socialsecurity.gov, or call them at 1-800-7721213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).

Remember: Keep this Creditable Coverage notice. If you decide to join one of the Medicare drug plans, you may be required to provide a copy of this notice when you join to show whether or not you have maintained creditable coverage and, therefore, whether or not you are required to pay a higher premium (a penalty).

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE & MEDICARE NON-CREDITABLE Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it.

All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium.

Diversified Sourcing Solutions has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the Cigna High Deductible HSA Plan is, on average for all plan participants, NOT expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays. Therefore, your coverage is considered Non-Creditable Coverage. This is important because, most likely, you will get more help with your drug costs if you join a Medicare drug plan, than if you only have prescription drug coverage from the Cigna HSA Plan. This also is important because it may mean that you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you do not join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible.

You can keep your current coverage from the Cigna HSA plan. However, because your coverage is non-creditable, you have decisions to make about Medicare prescription drug coverage that may affect how much you pay for that coverage, depending on if and when you join a drug plan.

When you make your decision, you should compare your current coverage, including what drugs are covered, with the coverage and cost of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Read this notice carefully it explains your options.

EMPLOYER GROUP PLAN If you decide to drop your current coverage with Diversified Sourcing Solutions, you will be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan. However you also may pay a higher premium (a penalty) because you did not have creditable coverage under HDHP. When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join A Medicare Drug Plan?

Since the coverage under Cigna plan, is not creditable, depending on how long you go without creditable prescription drug coverage you may pay a penalty to join a Medicare drug plan. Starting with the end of the last month that you were first eligible to join a Medicare drug plan but didn’t join, if you go 63 continuous days or longer without prescription drug coverage that’s creditable, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join.

Does Employer Health Coverage Affect Eligibility for Premium Savings Through the Marketplace?

Yes. If you have an offer of health coverage from your employer that meets certain standards, you will not be eligible for a tax credit through the Marketplace and may wish to enroll in your employer’s health plan. However, you may be eligible for a tax credit that lowers your monthly premium, or a reduction in certain cost-sharing if your employer does not offer coverage to you at all or does not offer coverage that meets certain standards. If the cost of a plan from your employer that would cover you (and not any other members of your family) is more than 9.5% of your household income for the year, or if the coverage your employer provides does not meet the “minimum value” standard set by the Affordable Care Act, you may be eligible for a tax credit.

Your payments for coverage through the Marketplace are made on an alter-tax basis.
