What if I want to enroll later in the year? Enrollment opportunities outside your initial enrollment window or open enrollment require a qualifying event. Changing your benefits You will not be able to make changes to your plan midyear unless you experience a qualifying life event, which may allow you and your dependents to enroll in health insurance outside of the yearly open enrollment period.

Otherwise the plans that you enroll in will remain in the effect until 11/30/2023. The next opportunity to make a change to the benefits is during the next annual enrollment time period. Qualifying Event A change in status or a “qualifying event” is Defined as: • Marriage • Divorce or legal separation • Birth or adoption of a child • A change in your or your spouse’s employment or insurance status • A dependent ceasing to meet eligibility requirements • A change in residence that affects coverage

Section 125 Flexible Spending Account Employee Enrollment Information

Page 14

What Is an FSA? A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is a pretax benefit that enables eligible employees to set aside a specific pretax dollar amount for unreimbursed medical, dental, vision, orthodontia, and dependent care expenses. If you have predictable out-of-pocket expenses, you may want to consider enrolling in the FSA. Depending on your plan, you have the option to join two separate FSA accounts: An Unreimbursed Medical Account can be used for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses. Examples include:  Office visit co-pays and deductibles  Prescription eyeglasses or contacts  Dental cleanings  Orthodontia Medical expenses to diagnose, treat, or prevent an existing medical condition, that have not been reimbursed through another benefit plan, are eligible. Some items may require a prescription, doctor’s note, or additional certification from a medical provider. For a list of common, qualifying expenses, refer to the FSA Eligible Products listing at fsastore.com/paychex. A Dependent Care Account can be used for custodial expenses for a claimed dependent. Examples include:  A daycare center or babysitter to allow you (and your spouse, if married) to work, actively look for work, or be a full-time student  Custodial or elder care Note: The IRS maximum annual employee contribution for Unreimbursed Medical Expenses (UME) is $2,850 in 2022. Please refer to the Summary Plan Description (SPD) for your plan’s maximum contribution as it may be different from this amount. Why Should I Participate in an FSA? Tax Savings. FSA deductions come out of your paycheck before most withholding taxes are computed, reducing your taxable income. Budgeting. Regular payroll deductions help you budget medical, dental, vision, and dependent care expenses. Ease and Convenience. The PBA Employee Website is available 24 hours a day/7 days a week, at www.paychexflex.com. Still unsure if you'll have FSA-eligible expenses? Check out thousands of eligible FSA products on our partner website at the FSA store or by clicking on the below banner for $5.00 off your next FSA purchase! FSA Tools Visit the PBA Employee Website at www.paychexflex.com or use the Paychex mobile app to:  Update your email address or home phone number;  Access, submit, and track FSA claims;  Review account balances and election amounts.  Request FSA forms; or  View important FSA-related balance information. You can download the PBA mobile app on the website by clicking Tools & Resources from the home page. When Can I Enroll in FSA? If you meet the plan’s eligibility requirements outlined in the SPD, you can enroll or change your annual election for the upcoming year during the open enrollment period using the website. The effective date for benefit plans elected during open enrollment is January 1 of the following year. For new plans, you can enroll online two weeks prior to your plan effective date. If you are a new employee whose eligibility date does not occur during the open enrollment timeframe, you need to submit a paper enrollment form to enroll. The form is available online on the PBA Employee Website, Tool & Reports tab, under Forms. Sole proprietors, partners in a partnership, greater than two percent owners of an S-Corporation, and members of LLCs taxed as such, and their family members, are not eligible to participate in a Section 125 plan. If you do not submit a change or request to cease participation during open enrollment, your current annual election amount will be used for the following plan year; you do not need to re-enroll. How Do I Enroll? You can enroll by logging in to www.paychexflex.com and selecting Benefits Account (PBA).

Page 15

2 Enrolling Online 1. Log in to www.paychexflex.com and select Benefits Account (PBA). From the left menu saying, I Want To…, click the Enroll Now button. 2. After reviewing the general information about your company’s plans, click Begin Your Enrollment Now. Ask your employer for a copy of the SPD for specific plan details; this page is an overview. 3. Verify your Participant Profile information. If you have or would like a Dependent Care plan, you can add a dependent by clicking Yes when asked, “Do you have any dependents?” Add the dependent. 4. Approve the plan rules. Again, this is not a substitute for the SPD, so please see your employer for detailed information. Check the boxes and click Continue. 5. Enter your election amount(s) for the plans offered, click Continue. 6. Select Check or Direct Deposit for your secondary reimbursement method. 7. Verify your enrollment information and click Submit if accurate. You can make updates until the close of the Open Enrollment period. 8. A confirmation will display when you are finished.

3 How Much Should I Elect? Use the Flexible Spending Account Deduction Worksheet at www.paychexflex.com, or our online calculator at https://www.paychex.com/calculators/employee-fsa-calculator, to calculate your eligible expenses and determine the per-pay-period FSA deduction amount. Be sure to consider the maximum amount your employer allows for unreimbursed medical expenses (refer to the SPD). You should also consider any amount your employer is contributing toward the plan. The maximum household deduction allowed for dependent care expenses, per federal guidelines, is $5,000. A “household” can be described as the total number of taxpayers (living as spouses as defined under federal law) who are filing tax returns either jointly or separately. Claims and Reimbursement Orthodontia Use the Monthly Orthodontia Claim Form on the PBA Employee Website, under the Tools & Support tab, to submit claims for orthodontia reimbursement:  If you pay the orthodontia bill up front, you will be reimbursed in full up front. You can elect to submit only one claim form for the total amount of orthodontia care (up to your annual election) as opposed to monthly amounts. You must submit an itemized receipt showing the payment and the date it was paid. This one-time submission option cannot cross plan years; payment date is considered the date of service.  If you pay the orthodontia bill in monthly installments, you will be reimbursed as services are incurred. Your initial down payment will be reimbursed in full, and services will be allocated over the length of the contract. You have the option of monthly automatic reimbursements, using your debit card to pay for services each month or submitting individual claim forms for reimbursement. The monthly installment option can cross plan years. Reimbursement Timing Claims are processed within three business days of receipt; however, reimbursements may take more than two days to receive. You can monitor the claim status on the PBA Employee Website at www.paychexflex.com. If your claim is denied, or needs additional documentation, you will receive notification explaining the reason and/or need for additional documentation. End of Year Submissions You have up to 90 days (“closeout period”) after the end of the plan year (December 31), or termination of your employment, to submit claims for reimbursement. Eligible expenses must be incurred during the plan year (up to and including your termination date) while you are an active participant. Your FSA may have one of the following options:  Your employer may offer a grace period up to, and including, March 15 of the following year to incur expenses that can be reimbursed from your prior year’s account. This applies only if you were an active participant on the last day of the plan year (December 31) and have a balance remaining in your prior year’s account. If a reimbursement received by March 31 is put “on hold” because we need additional documentation, you have until May 15 to submit the required documentation.  Your employer may offer a carry-over of up to $570 of unreimbursed medical expense funds from the current year to the following year. This allows you to incur expenses, up to and including December 31 of the following year, that can be reimbursed from your prior year’s account. This applies only if you were an active participant on the last day of the plan year (December 31) and have a balance remaining in your prior year’s account. If a reimbursement received by March 31 is put “on hold” because we need additional documentation, you have until May 15 to submit the required documentation. If you have a grace period or carryover option, submit reimbursement requests for services from the previous plan year before submitting claims for the current year. All claims for services incurred on or before December 31 must be submitted by March 31 of the following calendar year. Unclaimed funds remaining in your account after the deadlines are forfeited to the plan and cannot be reimbursed.

4 FSA Debit Card If offered by your employer, you can use the PBA Debit Card to pay for FSA-eligible items and services at point-of-sale rather than submitting a claim reimbursement request. You will receive a notification from Paychex if additional substantiation documentation is required; please respond to the notice promptly so your debit card remains active. To stay up-to-date about vendor card acceptance and accepting merchants, refer to www.sig-is.org. FSA Direct Deposit FSA direct deposit allows you to receive medical and dependent care claim reimbursement through direct deposit to your bank account. Termination If your employment is terminated, you will have 90 days to submit receipts for expenses incurred on or prior to your termination date, or to submit documentation for claims that were placed on hold or required substantiation prior to your termination date. Can I Change My FSA Election? Your FSA election cannot be changed during the plan year unless you experience a qualifying event as defined by law:  Marriage or divorce  Death of spouse or dependent  Birth or adoption of a child  Termination or start of spouse’s employment  Change in employment status from part-time to full-time or full-time to part-time for you or your spouse*  Unpaid leave of absence by you or your spouse  Eligibility or ineligibility of Medicare/Medicaid  Cost-motivated dependent care changes (for example, relative becomes available to watch child) If a qualifying event has occurred, you must submit supporting documentation and enrollment modifications to your employer within 30 days of the event. Per federal regulations you cannot move money between your medical and dependent care accounts. How Do I Submit a Claim? 1. To submit a claim, log in to www.paychexflex.com and select Benefits Account (PBA). From the menu saying, I Want To…, click the File A Claim button. 2. In the Pay From drop-down menu, select the account you’d like to be reimbursed from, and in the Pay To drop-down menu, choose Me. 3. Upload a valid receipt that is a .jpg, .gif, or.pdf file type no larger than 2MB. Be sure to include a receipt with the name of the service provider, date(s) of service, dollar amount of the service, and a description of the service provided.

PART A: General Information To assist you as you evaluate options for you and your family, this notice provides some basic information about the Health Insurance Marketplace and employment-based health coverage offered by your employer. What is the Health Insurance Marketplace? The Marketplace is designed to help you find health insurance that meets your needs and fits your budget. The Marketplace offers “one-stop shopping” to find and compare private health insurance options. You may also be eligible for a new kind of tax credit that lowers your monthly premium right away. Open enrollment for health insurance coverage through the Marketplace begins in October 2021 for coverage starting as early as January 1, 2022. Can I Save Money on my Health Insurance Premiums in the Marketplace? You may qualify to save money and lower your monthly premium, but only if your employer does not offer coverage, or offers coverage that doesn’t meet certain standards. The savings on your premium that you’re eligible for depends on your household income. Does Employer Health Coverage Affect Eligibility for Premium Savings through the Marketplace? Yes. If you have an offer of health coverage from your employer that meets certain standards, you will not be eligible for a tax credit through the Marketplace and may wish to enroll in your employer’s health plan. However, you may be eligible for a tax credit that lowers your monthly premium, or a reduction in certain cost sharing if your employer does not offer coverage to you at all or does not offer coverage that meets certain standards. If the cost of a plan from your employer that would cover you (and not any other members of your family) is more than 9.5% of your household income for the year, or if the coverage your employer provides does not meet the “minimum value” standard set by the Affordable Care Act, you may be eligible for a tax credit.1 Note: If you purchase a health plan through the Marketplace instead of accepting health coverage offered by your employer, then you may lose the employer contribution (if any) to the employer-offered coverage. Also, this employer contribution — as well as your employee contribution to employer-offered coverage — is often excluded from income for federal and state income tax purposes. Your payments for coverage through the Marketplace are made on an after-tax basis. How Can I Get More Information? For more information about the coverage offered by your employer, please check your summary plan description or contact: Shanon Harlan at SHarlan@rideglinemc.com or 469-745-8277 ext 102. The Marketplace can help you evaluate your coverage options, including your eligibility for coverage through the Marketplace and its cost. Please visit HealthCare.gov for more information, including an online application for health insurance coverage and contact information for a Health Insurance Marketplace in your area. An employer-sponsored health plan meets the “minimum value standard” if the plan’s share of the total allowed benefit costs covered by the plan is no less than 60% of such costs. New Health Insurance Marketplace Coverage Options and Your Health Coverage Form Approved OMB Control Number 1210-0137 (expires 1/31/2023)

PART B: Information About Health Coverage Offered by Your Employer This section contains information about any health coverage offered by your employer. If you decide to complete an application for coverage in the Marketplace, you will be asked to provide this information. This information is numbered to correspond to the Marketplace application. 3. Employer name RIDGELINE MANAGEMENT COMPANY 4. Employer Identification Number (EIN) 82-0569943 5. Employer address 2313 Ridge Road Suite 104 6. Employer phone number 469-745-8277 ext 102 7. City Rockwall 8. State TX 9. ZIP code 75087 10. Who can we contact about employee health coverage at this job? SHANON HARLAN 11. Phone number (if different from above) 0 12. Email address SHarlan@rideglinemc.com Here is some basic information about health coverage offered by this employer: As your employer, we offer a health plan to: X All employees working full time hours. __ Some employees. Eligible employees are: With respect to dependents: X We do offer dependent coverage. __ We do not offer coverage for dependents. X If checked, this coverage meets the minimum value standard, and the cost of this coverage to you is intended to be affordable, based on employee wages. 1 Even if your employer intends your coverage to be affordable, you may still be eligible for a premium discount through the Marketplace. The Marketplace will use your household income, along with other factors, to determine whether you may be eligible for a premium discount. If, for example, your wages vary from week to week (perhaps you are an hourly employee or you work on a commission basis), if you are newly employed midyear, or if you have other income losses, you may still qualify for a premium discount. If you decide to shop for coverage in the Marketplace, HealthCare.gov will guide you through the process. Here’s the employer information you’ll enter when you visit HealthCare.gov to find out if you can get a tax credit to lower your monthly premiums.

Notice Regarding Special Enrollment Rights If you are declining enrollment for yourself or your dependents (including your spouse) because of other health insurance or group health plan coverage, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents in this plan if you or your dependents lose eligibility for that other coverage (or if the employer stops contributing toward your or your dependents’ other coverage). However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after your or your dependents’ other coverage ends (or after the employer stops contributing toward the other coverage). In addition, if you have a new dependent as a result of marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption, you may be able to enroll yourself and your dependents. However, you must request enrollment within 30 days after the marriage, birth, adoption, or placement for adoption. To request special enrollment or obtain more information, contact Shanon Harlan at 469-745-8277 ext 102 or Shanon Harlan <SHarlan@rideglinemc.com>.

Source: https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/ebsa/about-ebsa/our-activities/resource-center/publications/compliance-assistance-guide-appendix-c.pdf Notice Regarding Michelle’s Law: Under the Affordable Care Act, group health plans and issuers are generally required to provide dependent coverage to age 26 regardless of student status of the dependent. Nonetheless, under some circumstances, such as a plan that provides dependent coverage beyond age 26, Michelle’s Law provisions may apply. Medically necessary leave of absence means with respect to a dependent child in connection with a group health plan or health insurance coverage offered in connection with a group health plan, a leave of absence from or other change in enrollment status in a postsecondary educational institution that begins while the child is suffering from a serious illness or injury; is medically necessary; and causes the child to lose student status for purposes of coverage under the terms of the plan or coverage. A dependent child is a beneficiary who is a dependent child under the terms of the plan or coverage of a participant or beneficiary under the plan or coverage and who was enrolled in the plan or coverage on the basis of being a student at a postsecondary educational institution immediately before the first day of the medically necessary leave of absence involved. A group health plan or issuer shall not terminate coverage of a dependent child due to a medically necessary leave of absence that causes the child to lose student status before the date that is the earlier of: • the date that is one year after the first day of the medically necessary leave of absence; or • the date on which such coverage would otherwise terminate under the terms of the plan or health insurance coverage. See ERISA section 714(b). Tip: The group health plan or issuer can require receipt of written certification by a treating physician of the dependent child which states that the dependent child is suffering from a serious illness or injury and that the leave of absence (or other change of enrollment) is medically necessary.

Notice Regarding Patient Protection Rights United Healthcare generally allows the designation of a primary care provider. You have the right to designate any primary care provider who participates in our network and who is available to accept you or your family members. Until you make this designation, United Healthcare designates one for you. For information on how to select a primary care provider, and for a list of the participating primary care providers, contact the United Healthcare at 866-414-1959 or go to uhc.com/member-resources. For children, you may designate a pediatrician as the primary care provider. You do not need prior authorization from United Healthcare or from any other person (including a primary care provider) in order to obtain access to obstetrical or gynecological care from a healthcare professional in our network who specializes in obstetrics or gynecology. The healthcare professional, however, may be required to comply with certain procedures, including obtaining prior authorization for certain services, following a pre-approved treatment plan, or procedures for making referrals. For a list of participating healthcare professionals who specialize in obstetrics or gynecology, contact United Healthcare at uhc.com/member-resources.

If you or your children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs, but you may be able to buy individual insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit healthcare.gov. If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a state listed below, contact your state Medicaid or CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available. If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either of these programs, contact your state Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 877-KIDS-NOW or visit insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan. If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan, contact the Department of Labor at askebsa.dol.gov or call 866-444-EBSA (3272).

Medicare Part D Coverage Notice – Important Information About Your Prescription Drug Coverage and Medicare Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it. This notice has information about your current prescription drug coverage with Ridgeline Management Company and about your options under Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage, including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice. There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage: 1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006 to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage. All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more coverage for a higher monthly premium. 2. Ridgeline Management Company has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the medical plan chosen by the employee is, on average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to join a Medicare drug plan. When Can You Join a Medicare Drug Plan? You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for Medicare and each year from October 15 to December 7. However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage, through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan. CMS Form 10182-CC Updated April 1, 2011 According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 0938-0990. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 8 hours per response initially, including the time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and review the information collection. If you have comments concerning the accuracy of the time estimate(s) or suggestions for improving this form, please write to: CMS, 7500 Security Boulevard, Attn: PRA Reports Clearance Officer, Mail Stop C4-26-05, Baltimore, Maryland 21244-1850.

What Happens to Your Current Coverage If You Decide to Join a Medicare Drug Plan? If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Ridgeline Management Company coverage will not be affected. Prescription coverage by plan tier: Please see Summary of Benefits and Coverage for your prescription coverage. If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current Ridgeline Management Company coverage, be aware that you and your dependents may be able to get this coverage back. When Will You Pay A Higher Premium (Penalty) To Join a Medicare Drug Plan? You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage with Ridgeline Management Company and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later. If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least 19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the following October to join. For More Information About This Notice or Your Current Prescription Drug Coverage: Contact your plan administrator, who is the person listed below, for further information. • Name of Entity/Sender: Ridgeline Management Company • Contact Name: Shanon Harlan • Address: 2313 Ridge Road Suite 104, Rockwall TX 75087 • Phone Number: 469-745-8277 ext 102 NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will also get it before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan and if this coverage through Ridgeline Management Company changes. You also may request a copy of this notice at any time. For more information about Your Options Under Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage: More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the “Medicare & You” handbook. You’ll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be contacted directly by Medicare drug plans. For additional information about Medicare prescription drug coverage: • Visit medicare.gov • Call your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (see the inside back cover of your copy of the “Medicare & You” handbook for their telephone number) for personalized help • Call 800-MEDICARE (800-633-4227). TTY users should call 877-486-2048. If you have limited income and resources, extra help paying for Medicare prescription drug coverage is available. For information about this extra help, visit Social Security on the web at socialsecurity.gov, or call them at 800-772-1213 (TTY 800-325-0778). Remember: Keep this Creditable Coverage notice. If you decide to join one of the Medicare drug plans, you may be required to provide a copy of this notice when you join to show whether or not you have maintained creditable coverage and, therefore, whether or not you are required to pay a higher premium (a penalty).

Newborns’ Act Disclosure Group health plans and health insurance issuers generally may not, under federal law, restrict benefits for any hospital length of stay in connection with childbirth for the mother or newborn child to less than 48 hours following a vaginal delivery, or less than 96 hours following a cesarean section. However, federal law generally does not prohibit the mother’s or newborn’s attending provider, after consulting with the mother, from discharging the mother or her newborn earlier than 48 hours (or 96 hours as applicable). In any case, plans and issuers may not, under federal law, require that a provider obtain authorization from the plan or the insurance issuer for prescribing a length of stay not in excess of 48 hours (or 96 hours).
