May 9, 2014
Proposed Effective Date of October 1, 2014 Presented By: Corporate Benefits of the Emerald Coast,
We appreciate the opportunity to provide you with this benefit and cost summary proposal from The
Standard. This document outlines certain important features of the group insurance coverages available.
This is not a contract or an offer to contract for such coverages. Detailed information about other
important features of the coverage proposed is available on request. Just ask your broker/consultant or
Standard representative.
A completed application must be submitted before a group can be considered for coverage. Insurance will
be effective after the application is accepted by The Standard. If approved, we will issue a contract
containing our customary language. It will not duplicate existing policy language, if any. The group
contract will contain provisions and defined terms not described in this Benefit and cost summary
proposal. The group contract will control if there are discrepancies between it and this proposal.
The proposed premium rate and plan design for each coverage are based on the underwriting data
received by The Standard. Final premium rates and plan provisions will be determined by The Standard
on the basis of: applicable state laws, policyholder contributions, confirmation of occupations, the actual
composition of the group of persons who will become insured, and our current underwriting rules and
practices.
This benefit and cost summary proposal expires on August 7, 2014, unless replaced or withdrawn by The
Standard.
