Schneider Electric Flexible Benefits Plan Schneider Electric recognizes that each employee has different needs.

Important Things to Consider When Making Your Election This is your opportunity to protect yourself and your family from the high cost of health and dental claims. Make sure you elect the coverage you would need if an accident or illness were to occur. Will you need Supplementary Health Care coverage such as massage therapy or chiropractic treatments? If yes, keep in mind the claim is subject to a reimbursement level (% coverage per claim) as well as a calendar year maximum. See page Q-2 of your Sun Life booklet for details. You are locked into your option (including opt out) until either the next open enrollment period or qualifying life event, provided you are not on a leave of absence. Do you have a spouse that has coverage? Did you know you can coordinate coverage between the two plans? For more details see page T-6 in your Sun Life booklet. If you are on a leave of absence, such as disability or personal leave, you can t make a change to your coverage until you return to work. When making your election, ask yourself what coverage you would need in the event that you become disabled. Keep in mind that you will not be able to change coverage while you re on a leave of absence, even if you no longer have coverage through a spouse s plan. Have you read your Sun Life booklet? Read your Sun Life booklet along with this Enrollment Guide to determine the best coverage for you and your family. Schneider Electric Benefits Program 5
