EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS





         This chart compares the per paycheck contributions for our Employee Benefit plans. Your cost for coverage will vary depending on
         the  option  and level of  coverage you choose. Employee  contributions for Medical, Dental, and Vision are deducted from your
         paycheck with pre-tax dollars. This means that contributions are taken from your earnings before taxes, resulting in lower taxes
         and increased take home pay. For your convenience, your age-banded Voluntary Life and AD&D and premiums have been pre-
         calculated for you in ADP.

         Spousal/Domestic Partner Surcharge - A $100 monthly spousal/domestic partner surcharge will be added to
         your medical insurance premium if you have elected coverage for your spouse/domestic partner and they
         are eligible for subsidized coverage through his/her employer but elect not to enroll with his/her employer.  If
         your spouse/domestic partner is not eligible for coverage as an employee with their own employer or their
         employer does not subsidize a portion of the premium, the spousal/domestic partner surcharge does not ap-
         ply.  All employees enrolling their spouse/domestic partner in the coverage for the 2017/2018 plan year with
         PACU will be required to complete an affidavit pertaining to the spousal/domestic partner surcharge.
