Plans and Summary Plan Description

FORFEITURES

Plan Year/Termination

Except as provided below, any amounts remaining in your account at the end of the Plan
Year will be forfeited after all claims are paid. In addition, except as described below for
dependent care expenses, any balance remaining in your account on the date you terminate
employment with the Nationals will be forfeited after all claims are paid.

Any balance remaining in your Health Care Reimbursement Account at the end of any Plan
Year up to $500 will be carried forward and used to fund such benefits in any subsequent
Plan Year. This carryover amount will not affect your ability to contribute the maximum
amount (2,600) in the subsequent Plan Year. Please note that the following limitations apply
to the carryover: You must have a $50.00 minimum account balance to carryover. Any
amount less than $50.00 will be forfeited 90 days after the end of the plan year.

If you cease to be participant in the cafeteria plan (because of termination of employment or
other reason) you may continue to be reimbursed for eligible dependent care expenses
through the end of the Plan Year (or grace period if applicable).

Grace Period

However, the unused balance in your Dependent Care Assistance Account that remains at the
end of a Plan Year may be used for expenses that you incur during the grace period. The
grace period is the 2-1/2 month period after the end of the Plan Year. Your Dependent Care
Assistance Account will be adjusted so that any eligible expenses will first be applied against
any remaining account balance from the prior Plan Year before eligible expenses are applied
against the current Plan Year's account balance. If your prior Plan Year's account balance is
exhausted, eligible expenses incurred during the grace period will be applied against the
current Plan Year's balance, if any.

CLAIMS

Deadlines

You must submit claims for reimbursement within 90 days after the end of the Plan Year.
However, if you terminate employment you must submit claims (other than eligible
dependent care expenses) for reimbursement within 90 days after your date of termination.
