Group Universal Life and Personal Accident Insurance for you and your family.

Offered by Connecticut General Life Insurance Company or Life Insurance Company of North America

Life is full of surprises. Make sure you’re ready for them.

Page 2: Life is full of surprises. - EBView · purchase $5,000 or $10,000 of term life insurance for your unmarried dependent children who are: • 15 days of age, but less than 19 years

*You and your dependent spouse must meet eligibility requirements. If you or your dependents exceed the guaranteed coverage amounts or enroll after the enrollment period offered by your employer, you must provide evidence of insurability. Your coverage will then take effect on the date Cigna agrees in writing to cover you or your dependents.

Good news. To enhance your financial protection, we’re giving you an opportunity to enroll in Group Universal Life (GUL) and/or Personal Accident Insurance (PAI). You just have to be an active Cigna employee who is eligible for Cigna’s benefit program.

And there’s more good news: As long as you enroll online within 60 days of your eligibility date—or as long as your enrollment form is signed and postmarked by that date—you can get certain amounts of GUL coverage on a guaranteed issue basis.* That means you don’t have to take any medical tests or answer any health questions. And, you won’t be turned down for medical reasons.

Your time is now.

Group Universal Life Insurance

You can’t predict the future. So it’s good to plan ahead. Help protect your family’s future and finances and prepare for retirement at the same time with GUL insurance.

A Group Universal Life insurance plan is:

• Easy. Apply within 60 days of your eligibility date and you may not have to answer any medical questions.

• Portable. You can take your coverage with you, even if you leave or retire from Cigna. Higher rates will apply.

• Long-lasting. Full coverage available until age 99.

• Adaptable. Plan options can help you manage your insurance coverage as your life’s needs change.

• Helpful. You’ll get access to Cigna’s Trusted Advisor, an online tool you can use to learn about your benefits, understand your finances and get instant access to forms.

Value-added programs. An extensive suite of health and wellness programs are included:**

• Cigna Secure Travel® – take advantage of a worldwide travel assistance program including pre-trip planning, help while travelling and emergency support for trips more than 100 miles from home.1

• Healthy Rewards® – savings on many products and services, including weight management, tobacco cessation, acupuncture, massages and more.2

• Cigna Will Preparation Program – simple, self-service online tool you can use to build state-specific customized wills and other legal documents, such as last will and testament, living will, health care and financial power of attorney.3

• Cignassurance® Program – offering supportive services in a time of need for surviving family members. Beneficiaries have access to financial, bereavement and legal services.4

• Cigna Identity Theft Program – provides access to a personal case manager who gives you step-by-step help and guidance if you ever have your identity stolen.5

**These programs are NOT insurance and do not provide for reimbursement of financial losses.

Reach your goals

You’ve got big plans. And big plans cost big money. Now, through your GUL plan, you have the option to build value through a Cash Accumulation Fund (CAF). Contributing to this fund can help you pay for future expenses like retirement, a new home or college tuition. To get started, figure out how much extra you want to contribute to your GUL plan—beyond the cost of insurance. Then, watch your money grow. It’s that easy.

Here’s why a Cash Accumulation Fund is a good thing:

• Guaranteed interest rate of 4%. The rate will never be lower than 4%. In fact, your actual rate may be even higher.

• Money for now. The money in your CAF is yours to use. You can borrow against your CAF or make an outright withdrawal if you’ve built up enough money.6

• Separate coverage for your spouse.*** He or she can participate in the CAF plan.

• Protection without payments. If you’ve built up enough money, you can stop making contributions temporarily and continue to enjoy your protection.7

***For the purposes of this brochure, whenever the term “spouse” appears it shall also include “domestic partner.“ For complete details about domestic partner eligibility, go to Your Cigna Life or call 1.800.551.3539.

Sign up within 60 days of your eligibility date and you may not have to answer any health questions or take any medical tests.

Your family and your future. Can you think of anything more important?

Cash Accumulation Fund growth charts

The charts to the right show how fast the CAF grows at the guaranteed minimum interest rate of 4%, compared to a traditional savings account earning the same interest rate.

It’s your money. Watch it grow.

Numbers shown are on a cumulative basis. The charts assume that the CAF contribution, cost of insurance and deposits to a traditional savings account are paid monthly. The CAF contribution scenario reflects a 2% premium charge. The traditional savings account scenarios assume a 25% tax bracket. The actual CAF interest rate can adjust quarterly, but will never go below 4%. Current savings account interest rates are below 4%. Actual rates can be more or less favorable than shown. Savings account interest rates are not guaranteed, fluctuate with market conditions and vary among financial institutions. A CAF is not federally insured (FDIC). As an insurance product, it must comply with each applicable state’s specific insurance reserve requirements. Contributions to the CAF are optional and determined by you. Maximums are based on the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) limits and are subject to a 2% premium charge which represents a portion of the state and federal tax imposed on contributions made to the fund. Since contributions are subject to very specific IRC guidelines, dependent upon your age, cost of insurance, and effective date of your certificate, it is recommended that you call 1.800.828.3485 and a Cigna representative will calculate the maximum contribution for you. You must be enrolled for GUL insurance to contribute to the CAF.

Group Universal Life plan summaryHere’s a summary of coverage options for you and your family. See your plan for details about any restrictions, exclusions and limitations.

For you

You’re eligible for GUL insurance if you’re an active, full-time or part-time employee of Cigna. This means you regularly work a minimum of 28 hours per week.

• You can elect one times your eligible earnings without having to answer health questions or take medical tests.* This coverage is also called the “guaranteed issue” amount. The maximum coverage amount is $200,000.

• If you provide written proof of your good health, also known as “evidence of insurability,” you can increase your coverage for more than the guaranteed issue amount.** The maximum coverage amount is $3,000,000 or 10 times your eligible earnings, whichever is less.

No person may be insured more than once under this policy. For example, you can’t be covered as an employee and a dependent at the same time, or be a dependent of two employees.

For your spouse

If you elect GUL for yourself, you can buy coverage for your spouse.

• Spouses under the age of 65 can receive $10,000 or $20,000 of coverage without having to answer health questions or take medical tests.

• You can purchase coverage for your spouse over the age of 65, as well as additional coverage if your spouse provides evidence of insurability. The maximum coverage amount is $500,000 or three times your eligible earnings, whichever is less.

For your spouse’s coverage to become effective: • You must be actively at work • Your spouse must not be hospitalized • Your spouse must be able to perform the normal daily activities of a person of the same age and gender

For your children

If you elect GUL coverage for yourself, you may also purchase $5,000 or $10,000 of term life insurance for your unmarried dependent children who are:

• 15 days of age, but less than 19 years old

• Age 19 to 26, and primarily financially supported by you

• 19 or more years old, primarily financially supported by you and incapable of self-sustaining employment by reason of mental or physical handicap

For your dependent children’s coverage to become effective:

• You must be actively at work

• Your children can’t be hospitalized

• Your children must be able to perform the normal daily activities of a person of the same age and gender

Words to know:

• Guaranteed issue: an amount of insurance you can purchase during the enrollment period without having medical tests to prove you are insurable.

• Eligible earnings: your base salary and deferred salary plus a three-year average of variable compensation including bonuses, commission payments, shift and overtime pay.

• Maximum coverage: the highest amount of GUL coverage Cigna provides to you.

• Eligibility date: the first date you are eligible to become covered or enroll for GUL insurance.

• Evidence of insurability: written evidence of your good health. For example, your answers to a short medical test. Depending on your responses, medical records and/or a medical exam may be requested.

• Start date: also known as “effective date,” this is the date we receive your completed and signed application, and your coverage actually begins. You are fully covered from this date. If evidence of insurability was required, this is the date we agreed, in writing, to insure you. Your effective date of coverage is found on your Certificate of Insurance document.

It’s all in the details.

Note: In certain states, restrictions may apply and ages may vary.*We’ll round your coverage up to the next higher $1,000, unless the number is already a multiple of 1,000. So if your eligible earnings are $45,450 per year, your coverage will be $46,000. If your eligible earnings are $46,000 a year, your coverage will be $46,000.**You will not have to answer health questions or take medical tests if you: – Apply for coverage for 1 times your eligible earnings or $200,000, whichever is less.

Group Universal Life Plan features

Your life is constantly changing. That’s why it’s important to have options. Here are all the ways you can make sure you have enough coverage for whatever direction life takes you.

Automatic increase option

We automatically increase your GUL coverage, up to the plan maximum, if your salary increases. This option helps lower your risk of being underinsured. We also increase your payroll deduction to cover the higher amount of protection.

Waiver of cost of life insurance

We will waive your cost of life insurance if:

• You become totally disabled8 before age 60, and

• Your disability lasts for six or more continuous months

This waiver does not apply to your spouse’s coverage.

Accelerated payment benefit

We will pay you a portion of your GUL benefit if you, or your covered spouse, are diagnosed as having a terminal illness. You will receive up to 50% of your GUL coverage in one payment. You can use the money for whatever you wish. To qualify for the payment, you need to provide medical certification from two unaffiliated U.S. licensed doctors. The doctors must state that your or your spouse’s life expectancy is 12 months or less. You or your spouse may also be required to be examined by a doctor of our choice. You will need to continue to pay your full premium if you take this benefit.

This benefit is only available one time and is not available to your children. The payment amount is subtracted from your or your spouse’s death benefit payment, if applicable.

Here’s how a 50% benefit would pay out on $100,000 of coverage:

It’s good to have options. Here are yours.

Accelerated Payment Benefit Example Monthly Premium $100,000 of GUL coverage $7.60- $ 50,000 (50% potentially tax-free lump-sum payment)

$ 50,000 remaining death benefit amount $7.60

Accidents happen. We’re here to help.

If you’re seriously injured10 in an accident, PAI can help pay for things that make living easier, like wheelchair ramps or adjustment of your car’s steering wheel.

Features of a Personal Accident Insurance plan:

• Protection on or off the job. PAI pays a benefit whether or not the accident is work-related.

• Portable. You can take your coverage with you even if you leave or retire from Cigna. Restrictions may apply.11

• Helpful. You’ll get access to Cigna’s Trusted Advisor, an online tool you can use to learn about your benefits, understand your finances and get instant access to forms.

Personal Accident Insurance Plan SummaryHere are some of the coverage options for you and your family. See your Certificate for details about any restrictions, exclusions and limitations.

For you

You’re eligible for PAI if you are an active, full-time or part-time employee of Cigna. This means you regularly work a minimum of 28 hours per week.

• Select from $25,000 to $500,000 worth of coverage in $25,000 increments

• The maximum coverage amount is $500,000, or 10 times your eligible earnings, whichever is less

Your spouse

If you elect PAI coverage for yourself, you can buy

coverage for your spouse.*

• Spouses can receive either 100% or 50% of the coverage amount you choose for yourself

• The maximum coverage amount is $500,000

For your spouse’s coverage to become effective:

• Your spouse must not be hospitalized or receiving outpatient care for chemotherapy or radiation

• Your spouse must not be confined at home under the care of a doctor

• Your spouse must not be receiving disability benefits

• Your spouse must be able to perform the normal daily activities of a person of the same age and gender without another person’s help or supervision

*For the purposes of this brochure, whenever the term “spouse” appears it shall also include “domestic partner”. For complete details about domestic partner eligibility, go to Your Cigna Life, or call

1.800.551.3539.

Your children

If you elect PAI for yourself, you may also buy

coverage for your unmarried children who are:

• Under age 19

• Age 19 to 26, a full-time student and primarily supported by you

• 19 or more years old, primarily supported by you and are incapable of self-sustaining employment by reason of mental or physical handicap

If the children are not biologically yours (for example, a step-child), they must also reside with you.

The coverage amount for children is 10% of your benefit amount. So if you elect $100,000 worth of coverage for yourself, your child’s coverage is $10,000. The maximum coverage amount is $25,000. Costs are the same, regardless of the number of children you insure.

For your dependent children’s coverage to become effective:

• You must be actively at work

• Your children must not be hospitalized or confined at home under the care of a doctor for sickness or injury.

No one can be covered more than once under this plan. If you are covered as an employee, you cannot also be covered as a dependent.

Monthly cost of insurance

Use this chart to help you figure out the monthly cost of PAI coverage.

NOTE: If you also elect GUL coverage, you will need to add this amount to your total monthly payroll deduction. PAI is paid for with after-tax dollars. Rates are subject to change.

Your plan. Your choices.

Employee Only $0.026 per $1,000 of coverage

Spouse Coverage $0.026 per $1,000 of coverage

Child Coverage $0.052 per $1,000 of coverage

You deserve more. So here it is.

Personal Accident Insurance: Additional BenefitsIt’s not easy to predict how a serious accident will affect your family. Some accidents could seriously affect your finances—especially if extensive rehabilitation is needed. That’s why PAI gives you these additional benefits to help meet special needs.

Living benefits

We will pay benefits if you, or an insured family member, are seriously injured in a covered accident that results in dismemberment, loss of eyesight, speech and hearing, and paralysis.

If you suffer multiple covered losses12 in one covered accident, you’ll receive only one benefit—the largest benefit to which you’re entitled.

Child-care center benefit

We will pay a benefit to help pay for your children’s daycare expenses if you, or your insured spouse, dies because of a covered accident. We’ll pay up to 3% of your total coverage each year, for up to five continuous years, or when the child turns 13, whichever comes first. We’ll send the payments to the child’s surviving custodial parent or legal guardian. There are certain limitations:

• Your surviving child must be 12 years or younger

• Your surviving child must be enrolled in a licensed day care center at the time of your covered accident, or within one year of your accidental death.

Increased accidental injury benefit for children

We will pay double the child’s coverage amount if your insured child suffers an accidental injury. The maximum payment amount is $50,000. Restrictions apply.13

COBRA reimbursement benefit

We’ll pay a benefit to your surviving insured spouse or dependent children if they are covered under Cigna’s medical plan and you die because of an accident. We’ll pay up to 3% of your total coverage each year, for up to three years. The maximum coverage amount is $3,000.
