Introduction PCA provides extra benefit protection if you die, are dismembered, or lose your sight as the result of an accident while traveling for the company, as described in the plan. This coverage is fully insured by CIGNA-Life Insurance Company of North America (CIGNA-LINA). Any benefits paid are in addition to, and separate from any benefits paid from the PCA Group Life Insurance Plan. Eligibility and Enrollment Eligibility You are eligible for coverage if you are: A regular, full-time, active, salaried employee who is regularly scheduled to work at least 30 hours per week, or You become eligible for coverage on the first date you are actively at work. If you no longer meet the eligibility requirements Your coverage will end. Enrollment You are automatically enrolled in the plan if you meet the eligibility requirements. Cost You do not make contributions for this coverage. PCA pays the full cost. Benefits Principal Sum Your benefit from the plan is based on your annual base pay (not including bonuses, commissions, overtime or incentive payments). The principal sum is five (5) times your annual base pay. The maximum principal sum is $500,000. Accident The plan pays a benefit if you die or are dismembered as the result of an accident while traveling for the company, as defined elsewhere in this summary plan description (i.e., excludes travel in company owned or leased aircraft). 2

Benefit Amount of Benefit 100% of the principal sum (five times annual base pay) Loss Death Loss of both feet Loss of sight in both eyes Loss of one hand and one foot Loss of one hand or one foot and sight in one eye 50 % of the principal sum Loss of one hand or one foot Loss of sight in one eye Loss of speech and hearing 25% of the principal sum Loss of speech or hearing Loss of thumb and forefinger of one hand Dismemberment The terms used above are specifically defined in the insurance contract. The loss must be complete and irreversible, such as the actual severance though or above the joint, or the irrecoverable loss of sight or hearing. Paralysis Benefit The plan also pays a benefit if you become paralyzed as the result of an accident while traveling on business for the company. The loss must cause complete paralysis of a limb without severance, and must be determined by a physician to be complete and irreversible. Quadriplegia: 100% of Principal Sum Paraplegia: 50% of Principal Sum Hemiplegia: 50% of Principal Sum Seatbelt Benefit The plan pays an additional benefit if you are in a fatal auto accident while wearing a properly fastened seatbelt. This benefit is meant to increase auto safety awareness. The benefit pays an additional 10% of the principal sum up to a $25,000 maximum. Claim must be accompanied by official accident report or certification by investigating officer that the insured was wearing properly fastened seatbelt (if official accident report does not verify proper seatbelt use, or if it is unclear whether the insured was properly wearing a seatbelt, we will pay the minimum benefit of $1,000). Valid only when driving or riding in a legally registered private passenger vehicle (car, including policyholder owned cars, station wagon, van, pickup truck or sport utility vehicle). CIGNA Worldwide Assistance Service The Plan s contract with CIGNA provides some special high-level assistance services, medical evacuation and repatriation coverage to covered employees who travel more that 100 miles from their homes. The service is provided through the Worldwide Assistance organization. 3

The assistance services help with such thinks as finding lost personal items, use of language interpreters, referrals to medical and legal professionals, case monitoring, travel arrangements, pre-travel information, and messaging to and from family members. Medical evacuation and repatriation costs are covered by the plan but must be authorized by a Worldwide Assistance specialist. Any expenses for services, other than an approved medical evacuation or repatriation, and the general telephone assistance are the responsibility of the employee. To access the Worldwide Assistance services, simply call the number included on the Worldwide Assistance literature (or contact Corporate Human Resources). Trained staff members a generally available 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Coverage Company Business Travel Business travel is defined as travel for authorized PCA business away from your primary work site. You are covered while traveling on company business. On company business means while on assignment for PCA. Your trip begins when you leave your residence or primary work site. Your trip continues until you return to your residence or primary work site, whichever occurs first. Travel Not Eligible You are not covered while: Commuting between your home and your primary work location, and Traveling aboard aircraft owned or leased by the company.
