LETTER FROM COMPANY PRESIDENT<br />
Our employees are our most valuable asset. <strong>Coulson</strong> Oil Group is committed to<br />
offering a comprehensive employee benefits program that helps our employees stay<br />
healthy, feel secure, and maintain a positive work/life balance.<br />
<strong>Benefits</strong> offered through the workplace can help protect important items such as<br />
your income and assets if you become sick or injured. Other benefits can help cover<br />
expenses that might not be covered in your medical plan such as day care, travel expenses,<br />
rent, mortgage payments, and everyday cost-of-living expenses. These benefits are not<br />
only valuable, but also provide great protection for you and your family while reducing<br />
financial exposure in your medical plan.<br />
<strong>Coulson</strong> Oil Group works with BXS Insurance to ensure that the benefits we offer are<br />
best-in-class. The voluntary benefits program that is offered also provides value because<br />
these benefits work hand-in-hand with the medical plan in lowering financial exposure for<br />
you and your family while providing benefits over and above what is covered by a<br />
traditional medical plan.<br />
We understand that life can be busy. But we encourage you to take the time to read<br />
the material inside this booklet to familiarize yourself with the benefits available to you.<br />
Again, thank you for all you do for our company and we wish you only the very best.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
John Harris, President and CEO<br />

BENEFITS OVERVIEW<br />
ENROLLMENT<br />
You can enroll in benefits or change your elections at the following times:<br />
• During your initial eligibility period (as a newly hired employee)<br />
• During the annual benefits open enrollment period<br />
• Within 30 days of experiencing a qualifying life event<br />
OPTIONS<br />
We offer a comprehensive benefits package consisting of:<br />
• Medical Insurance<br />
• Health Savings Account<br />
• Flexible Spending Accounts<br />
• Dental Insurance<br />
• Vision Insurance<br />
• Voluntary Life Insurance<br />
• Disability Insurance<br />
• Voluntary Accident Insurance<br />
• Voluntary Critical Illness/Cancer Insurance<br />
• Legal Services Plan<br />
ELIGIBILITY<br />
Full-time employees working at least 30 hours per week are eligible for benefits on the first of the month<br />
following date of hire. Many of the plans offer coverage for eligible dependents, including:<br />
• Your legal spouse<br />
• Your children to age 26, regardless of student, marital, or tax-dependent status (including stepchild,<br />
legally adopted child, a child placed with you for adoption, or a child for whom you are the legal guardian)<br />
• Your dependent children over age 26 who are physically or mentally unable to care for themselves<br />
CHANGING BENEFITS AFTER OPEN ENROLLMENT<br />
You may pay your portion of the medical, dental, and vision plan costs, and fund the flexible spending<br />
accounts, on a pre-tax basis. Thus, due to IRS regulations, once you have made your elections for the plan<br />
year, you cannot change your benefits until the next annual open enrollment period. The only exception is if<br />
you experience a qualifying event, and election changes must be consistent with your life event.<br />
To request a benefits change, notify Human Resources within 30 days of the qualifying life event. Change<br />
requests submitted after 30 days cannot be accepted. You may need to provide proof of the life event.<br />
Qualifying life events include, but are not limited to:<br />
• Marriage, divorce, or legal separation<br />
• Birth or adoption of an eligible child<br />
• Death of your spouse or covered child<br />
• Change in your spouse’s work status that affects his or her benefits<br />
• Change in your child’s eligibility for benefits<br />
• Qualified Medical Child Support Order<br />

less when you need care?<br />

care?<br />
3. What planned medical services do you expect to need in the upcoming year?<br />
4. Are you able to budget for your deductible by setting aside pre-tax dollars<br />
from your paycheck in an HSA or FSA?<br />
5. Do you or any of your covered family members take prescription medications<br />

spend on eligible expenses no matter where you work or how long it stays in the account.<br />

USE YOUR HSA TO PAY QUALIFIED MEDICAL EXPENSES<br />
• You can use your HSA money to pay for eligible expenses now or in the future.<br />

HOW DOES AN FSA WORK?<br />
You decide how much to contribute to each FSA on a plan year basis up to the maximum allowable amounts.<br />
Your annual election will be divided by the number of pay periods and deducted evenly on a pre-tax basis<br />
from each paycheck throughout the year.<br />
You will receive a debit card from Consolidated Admin Services, which can be used to pay for eligible health<br />
care expenses at the point of service. If you do not use your debit card or if you have dependent care<br />
expenses to be reimbursed, submit a claim form and a bill or itemized receipt from the provider to<br />
Consolidated Admin Services. Keep all receipts in case Consolidated Admin Services requires you to verify the<br />
eligibility of a purchase.<br />

and a half months to incur and be reimbursed for expenses after the end of the plan year.<br />
• You cannot take income tax deductions for expenses you pay with your FSA(s)<br />
• You cannot stop or change your FSA contribution(s) during the plan year unless you experience a<br />

The benefit allowance for services of an out of network dentist will be reduced by 10% for eligible services as<br />
determined by Delta Dental after applying the applicable deductibles, copays, and maximums. This means your<br />
out-of-pocket expense may be greater if you choose an out of network dentist. There is a 12 month waiting period on<br />
the replacement of existing appliances for employees not covered for 12 months on a prior group dental plan. After 12<br />

administrative burden upon your loved one in their time of need.<br />

GLOSSARY<br />
Coinsurance: Your share of the cost of a covered health care service, calculated as a percent (for example,<br />
20%) of the allowed amount for the service, typically after you meet your deductible. For instance, if your<br />
plan’s allowed amount for an office visit is $100 and you’ve met your deductible (but haven’t yet met your<br />
out-of-pocket maximum), your coinsurance payment of 20% would be $20. Your plan sponsor or employer<br />
would pay the rest of the allowed amount.<br />
Copay: The fixed amount, as determined by your insurance plan, you pay for health care services received.<br />
Deductible: The amount you owe for medical services before your medical insurance or plan sponsor<br />
(employer) begins to pay its portion. For example, if your deductible is $3,000, your plan does not pay<br />
anything until you’ve met your $3,000 deductible for covered health care services. This deductible may<br />
not apply to all services, including preventive care. Preventive care is 100% covered by the plan.<br />
Explanation of <strong>Benefits</strong> (EOB) / Personal Health Statement (PHS): A statement sent by your insurance<br />
carrier that explains which procedures and services were provided, how much they cost, what portion of<br />
the claim was paid by the plan, and what portion is your liability, in addition to how you can appeal the<br />
insurer’s decision. These statements are also posted on the carrier’s website for your review.<br />
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA): An option that allows participants to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for<br />
certain qualified expenses during a specific time period (usually a 12-month period).<br />
Health Care Cost Transparency: Also known as Market Transparency or Medical Transparency. Health<br />
care provider costs can vary widely, even within the same geographic area. To make it easier for you to<br />
get the most cost-effective health care products and services, online cost transparency tools, which are<br />
typically available through health insurance carriers, allow you to search an extensive national database to<br />
compare costs for everything from prescription drugs and office visits to MRIs and major surgeries.<br />
Health Savings Account (HSA): A personal health care bank account funded by your or your employer’s<br />
tax-free dollars to pay for qualified Medical expenses. You must be enrolled in a HDHP to open an HSA.<br />
Funds contributed to an HSA roll over from year to year and the account is portable, meaning if you<br />
change jobs, your account goes with you.<br />
Employee Contribution: The weekly amount you pay for your insurance coverage.<br />
High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP): Plan option that provides choice, flexibility and control when it<br />
comes to spending money on health care. Preventive care is covered at 100% with in-network providers,<br />
there are no copays, and all qualified employee-paid Medical expenses count toward your deductible and<br />
your out-of-pocket maximum.<br />
In-Network: In-network providers are doctors, hospitals and other providers that contract with your<br />
insurance company to provide health care services at discounted rates.<br />
Out-of-Network: Out-of-network providers are doctors, hospitals and other providers that are not<br />
contracted with your insurance company. If you choose an out-of-network doctor, services will not be<br />
provided at a discounted rate and your cost sharing (deductibles and coinsurance) will increase.<br />
Out-of-Pocket Maximum: The maximum amount of money you will pay for medical services during the<br />
plan year. The out-of-pocket maximum is the sum of your deductible and coinsurance payments.<br />
