         Important Information



         The Affordable Care Act and You
         The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires applicable large employers to make affordable coverage available to their employees or risk
         paying a penalty. Although the individual penalty is no longer valid, it is important that you understand your options for health
         insurance coverage as follows:

         •   Enroll in a medical plan offered by Confie or another group plan
         •   Purchase coverage through a health insurance marketplace
         •   Enroll in coverage through a government sponsored program

         Because  Confies’  medical  plans  are  considered  affordable  and  meet  minimum  value  under  Health  Care  Reform,  you  will  not
         generally see lower premiums or out-of-pocket costs through the marketplace. In addition, employer contributions to your medical
         benefits will be lost if you choose to purchase coverage through the marketplace, and your portion of medical premiums will no
         longer be paid via payroll deductions on a pre-tax basis.




                       Annual Notices

                       Various state and federal laws require that employers provide disclosure and annual notices to their plan
                       participants. Confie  has  included  all  federally  required  annual  notices  on  both  Confie  Hub  and  within  this
                       guide to read at your convenience. The following is a list of the annual notices you will find within this guide
