Texas Mutual Insurance Company Medical Plan


               The refund equals the amount the Plan paid in excess of the amount the Plan should have paid under the
               Plan. If the refund is due from another person or organization, you agree to help the Plan get the refund
               when requested.
               If the refund is due from you and you do not promptly refund the full amount, the Plan may recover the
               overpayment by reallocating the overpaid amount to pay, in whole or in part, your future Benefits that are
               payable under the Plan. If the refund is due from a person or organization other than you, the Plan may
               recover the overpayment by reallocating the overpaid amount to pay, in whole or in part; (i) future
               Benefits that are payable in connection with services provided to other Covered Persons under the Plan;
               or (ii) future Benefits that are payable in connection with services provided to persons under other plans
               for which the Claims Administrator processes payments, pursuant to a transaction in which the Plan's
               overpayment recovery rights are assigned to such other plans in exchange for such plans' remittance of
               the amount of the reallocated payment.
               The reductions will equal the amount of the required refund. The Plan may have other rights in addition to
               the right to reduce future benefits.

               Is There a Limitation of Action?

               You cannot bring any legal action against the Plan or the Claims Administrator to recover reimbursement
               until you have completed all the steps in the appeal process described in Section 6: Questions,
               Complaints and Appeals. After completing that process, if you want to bring a legal action against the
               Plan or the Claims Administrator you must do so within three years of the date the Plan notified you of its
               final decision on your appeal or you lose any rights to bring such an action against the Plan or the Claims
               Administrator.


               What Is the Entire Plan?
               The SPD, the Schedule of Benefits, and any SMMs and/or Amendments, make up the entire Plan.
