28 Why a Purdue Retiree Group Plan? Purdue HR staff assigned to help you Not age rated premiums do not increase with age No yearly re-enrollment for either plan option Better benefits than most individual plans offer PURA Benefits Committee works on your behalf to negotiate best possible plans

29 Message from PURA Benefits Committee PURA believes that prudent retiree health insurance decisions should be determined by value, service and dependability. Your health insurance is important to your well-being and peace of mind. Choosing an insurance plan on the basis of price alone can be risky and costly.

30 Life Insurance Official retirees have various options to continue, port or convert Minnesota Life coverage without proof of good health. All options require action by the retiree within 31 days of the date your employee coverage terminates.

31 You are eligible to: Retiring Under Age 65 Continue Basic Term Life (1.5x Salary) and Additional Term Life all or part by paying the full cost Continue all or part of coverage for dependents Port (extend) Accidental Death & Dismemberment coverage for you and/or your dependents to age 70

32 Life Insurance age * You are eligible to: Convert Basic Term Life (1.5x Salary) to an individual policy with Minnesota Life by paying the full cost Port (extend) Additional Term Life and/or AD&D to age 70 by paying the full cost * Cost is dependent upon age and amount of coverage

33 Life Insurance age 70+ If you have ported (extended) your Additional Term Life coverage up to this point, or if you are retiring at age 70 or older, you may convert all or part of the coverage to an individual policy without proof of good health. You can keep this coverage for life by paying the full cost. Cost is based on age and coverage amount.

34 Retirement Your reward for a job well done!
