Preferred Drug List, print a copy of the list from

Caremark.com and take it with you to your doctor’s

office. Using medicines on this list may save you and

supply), contact your benefit office for approval

at least 30 days before you need a refill.

If your medicine looks different.There may be times when a cost-saving generic

drug is available to treat your condition. In this

situation, you may receive the generic, unless your

GENERAL NOTICE CONTINUATION COVERAGE RIGHTS Introduction You are receiving this notice because you have recently become covered under a group health plan (the Plan). This notice contains important information about your right to Continuation Coverage, which is a temporary extension of coverage under the Plan. This notice generally explains Continuation Coverage, when it may become available to you and your family, and what you need to do to protect the right to receive it. When you become eligible for Continuation Coverage, you may also be eligible for other coverage options that may cost less than Continuation Coverage. Continuation Coverage can become available to you when you would otherwise lose your group health coverage. It can also become available to other members of your family who are covered under the Plan when they would otherwise lose their group health coverage. For additional information about your rights and obligations under the Plan 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 Continuation Coverage? Continuation Coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when coverage would otherwise end because of a life event known as a "qualifying event." Specific qualifying events are listed later in this notice. After a qualifying event, 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 Continuation Coverage must pay for Continuation Coverage. If you are an employee, you will become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because either one of the following qualifying events happens:

• Your hours of employment are reduced, or • Your employment ends for any reason other than your gross misconduct.

If you are the spouse of an employee, you will become a qualified beneficiary if you lose your coverage under the Plan because any of the following qualifying events happens:

• 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 any of the following qualifying events happens:

• 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."

When is Coverage Available? The Plan will offer Continuation Coverage to qualified beneficiaries only after the Plan Administrator has been notified that a qualifying event has occurred. When the qualifying event is 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), the employer must notify the Plan Administrator of the qualifying event.

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 Elwood Staffing Services, Inc., 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, and dependent children will also become qualified beneficiaries if bankruptcy results in the loss of their coverage under the Plan.

You Must Give Notice of Some Qualifying Events For the 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. The Plan Administrator is Elwood Staffing Services, Inc. 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 send written notice of a qualifying event to the Plan Administrator at the following address: Elwood Staffing Services, Inc. 4111 Central Ave. Columbus, IN 47203 866.868.4139. The notice must identify the qualifying event and the date such event occurred and include any supporting documentation available (such as a divorce decree) and the name and address of all qualified beneficiaries whose coverage is affected by the qualifying event. How is Continuation Coverage Provided? Once the Plan Administrator receives notice that a qualifying event has occurred, Continuation Coverage will be offered to each of the qualified beneficiaries. Each qualified beneficiary will have an independent right to elect Continuation Coverage. Covered employees may elect Continuation Coverage on behalf of their spouses, and parents may elect Continuation Coverage on behalf of their children. Continuation Coverage is a temporary continuation 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 this 18-month period of Continuation Coverage can be extended: Disability extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage If you or anyone in your family covered under the Plan is determined by the Social Security Administration to be disabled and you notify the Plan Administrator in a timely fashion, you and your entire family may be entitled to receive up to an additional 11 months of Continuation Coverage, for a total maximum of 29 months. The disability would have to have started at some time before the 60th day of Continuation Coverage and must last at least until the end of the 18-month period of continuation coverage. In the event that you become disabled prior to the 60th day of Continuation Coverage, you must provide a notice of such disability within 60 days of receiving a disability determination from the Social Security Administration, and in no event later than the expiration of the 18-month period of Continuation Coverage to the following: Boon Administrative Services, Inc., Comerica Lock Box, P.O. Box 671227, Dallas, TX 75267-1227. Please include any available supporting documentation pertaining to the disability, including the Social Security Administration determination of disability. Second qualifying event extension of 18-month period of continuation coverage If your family experiences another qualifying event while receiving 18 months of Continuation Coverage, the spouse and dependent children in your family can get up to 18 additional months of Continuation Coverage, for a maximum of 36 months, if notice of the second qualifying event is properly given to the Plan. This extension may be available to the spouse and any dependent children receiving Continuation Coverage if the employee or former employee dies, becomes entitled to Medicare benefits (under Part A, Part B, or both), or gets divorced or legally separated, or if the dependent child stops being eligible under the Plan as a dependent child, but only if the event would have caused the spouse or dependent child to lose coverage under the Plan had the first qualifying event not occurred. In the event that you experience a second qualifying event while you are receiving Continuation Coverage, within 30 days of such qualifying event, please provide notice to: Boon Administrative Services, Inc., Comerica Lock Box, P.O. Box 671227, Dallas, TX 75267-1227. The notice must identify the qualifying event and the date such event occurred and include any supporting documentation available (such as a divorce decree) and the name and address of all qualified beneficiaries whose coverage is affected by the qualifying event. Are there other coverage options besides Continuation Coverage? Yes, instead of enrolling in 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 spouse's plan) through what is called a "special enrollment period." Some of these options may cost less than Continuation Coverage. You can learn more about many of these options at www.healthcare.gov. Keep Your Plan Informed of Address Changes In order to protect your family's rights, you should keep the Plan Administrator informed of any changes in the addresses of family members. You should keep a copy, for your records, of any notices you send to the Plan Administrator. Plan Contact Information For more information concerning your rights under Continuation Coverage, please contact: Boon Administrative Services, Inc. ATTN: COBRA Administration Comerica Lock Box P.O. Box 671227 Dallas, TX 75267-1227 866.868.4139

Important  Notice  from  Your  Employer  About  Your  Prescription  Drug  Coverage  and  Medicare  

   Please   read   this  notice  carefully  and  keep   it  where  you  can   find   it.  This  notice  has   information   about   your   current   prescription  drug   coverage  with  your  employer’s  plan  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:    1.   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.    

2.   Your  employer  has   determined   that   the   prescription   drug   coverage   offered   by   your  employer’s  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  15  to  December      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  coverage  through  your  employer’s  plan  will  not  be   affected.    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  your  employer  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  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   the  person   listed  below   for   further   information.  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   [Insert   Name  of  Entity]  changes.  You  also  may  request  a  copy  of   this  notice  at  any   time.    For  More  Information  About  Your  Options  Under  Medicare  Prescription  Drug   Coverage…    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:

Premium Assistance Under Medicaid and the

Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov. If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, 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, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan. If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272). If you live in one of the following states, you may be eligible for assistance paying your employer health plan premiums. The following list of states is current as of August 10, 2017. Contact your State for more information on eligibility –
