• be age 16 through 80.
• be on active service, performing in the usual manner all of the regular duties of his or her occupation at one of the places of business where he or she normally works or at some location directed by the employer; and
• be continuously employed for the amount of time and working the minimum number of hours per week as you require to be eligible for benefits. These requirements will be defined on the Life and Health Group Application and Agreement.

In addition to the advantages that TransElite Universal Life has, this plan offers even more benefits:

• Group rates: These may be lower than you can get with individual policies.
• Portability: Unlike some other group life insurance programs, you can keep this coverage even after you leave Aramark.
• Guaranteed issue: If you enroll during pre-defined periods, such as when you start a new job, you can elect certain coverage amounts on a "guaranteed issue" basis by satisfactorily meeting eligibility requirements.
• Flexibility: Within certain limits, you can change the death benefit, the amount of premium, and payment frequency.
• Cash Accumulation Fund Element: Through Group Universal Life Insurance, you have the ability to contribute to a Cash Accumulation Fund which builds cash value with a guaranteed interest rate. Once cash value is built up, you can access the money whenever you want and for whatever you want. You can also take a loan against your accumulated cash value and continue to earn interest on the borrowed amount.
• Nonsmoker rates: Reduced rates are available if the insured has not smoked or used any form of tobacco for 12 consecutive months prior to the date you complete the enrollment form.
• Accelerated Death Benefit for Terminal Condition Rider:
  • Accelerates up to the lesser of $100,000 or 75% if a covered person is first diagnosed with a terminal condition which, in the best medical judgement, will result in death within 12 months.
  • When exercised, an administrative fee of $100 plus 12 months advanced interest will be deducted from the benefit payment. The death benefit and other contract values will be reduced accordingly and this rider will terminate.
• Waiver of Monthly Deductions for Layoff or Strike Rider:
  • Waives the monthly deductions for up to six months per year if the employee is involuntary laid off.
  • Benefits are limited to three layoffs per year and based on the employee’s layoff only.

As a new hire, you can enroll within your employer’s benefits eligibility guidelines. Outside of your new hire or new life event period, enrollment is limited to the company’s annual enrollment.

Insurance is effective on the effective date requested on the Life and Health Group Application and Agreement or first day of the month following the date an individual’s application is approved by Transamerica Life Insurance Company, whichever is later.

If you do not enroll yourself and your eligible family members when first eligible or during a special enrollment period, you will be required to provide evidence of insurability.

If you enroll within 90 days from your initial eligibility date:

• You can get up to $100,000
• You can get up to $15,000 for your spouse

If a covered employee withdraws the cash value, tax consequences and/or surrender charges may apply.

Fluctuations in interest rates or policy changes may require the payment of additional premiums.

Individuals currently on disability or on premium waiver are not eligible for coverage.

During the first two years, the death benefit for suicide is limited to the return of premiums paid, less any loans, partial surrender amounts, and accelerated benefits paid, if any.

Everyone needs life insurance.

Contrary to popular belief, life insurance isn't just for parents. You need life insurance if anyone is financially dependent on you.

You've recently graduated from college.

You may have significant student loan obligations. If something were to happen to you, your loved ones would most likely be forced to shoulder that debt.

You're the parent of two small children.

You want to make sure they'll be able to keep the same lifestyle and attend college — even if you're not there to see it happen.

Your children are on their own.

But your children rely on you for support and help around the house. If you weren't there for them, your children would need extra money to pay someone to take care of things you've been managing for them.

Your spouse is depending on your income for retirement.

But you're not sure your retirement savings is enough to keep up with a rising cost of living if your paycheck stopped. Life insurance can be a smart way to fill the gap.

Like many families, you rely on two incomes to make ends meet.

You'll need life insurance on both you and your spouse. Even if your spouse stays at home, you should consider life insurance on your spouse to cover the cost of hiring someone to take care of the things your spouse generally handles.

Consider what kind of financial condition your family would be in if, suddenly, you were not there to provide for them. Where would the money come from to pay for your funeral, the monthly bills, the mortgage, and education costs? Maybe it's a good time to think about the value of life insurance.
