Benefit Waiting Period means the continuous period of time (shown in the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS) that You
must be insured under the Policy before any benefits are payable.
Benign Brain Tumor means a non-cancerous brain tumor confirmed by the examination of tissue (biopsy or
surgical excision) or specific neurological examination. The tumor must result in persistent neurological deficits

RL-CI3-CERT-12-CA-R 7
B-14374 (03/14)
Cancer means a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and/or spread of abnormal cells.
Cancer is limited to malignancies of solid tissue, blood or lymph tissue and includes leukemia, lymphoma and
Hodgkin’s disease.
The diagnosis of Cancer is generally made by examining tissue under a microscope. This requires looking at the
suspect tumor, tissue or specimen at the microscopic level such that malignancy may be determined using
established medical standards for cancer diagnosis. In some circumstances, a cancer diagnosis can be made on a
clinical basis. If your physician makes a diagnosis of invasive cancer based on our determination of sound clinical
judgment or by examining tissues under a microscope, then we will consider you for benefits under this contract.
There are two exceptions to receiving benefits under the "Cancer" section of this policy and they include:
• Skin cancer is considered for separate benefits under this policy if you have opted for those benefits. For a
definition of skin cancer, see the section below titled "Skin Cancer".
• Carcinoma in Situ (see definition below) is considered for separate benefits under this contract if you have opted
for those benefits. For a definition of Carcinoma in Situ (CIS) see the section below titled "Carcinoma in Situ".
CIS includes but is not limited to Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) of the breast, Lobular Carcinoma in Situ (LCIS)
of the breast, in Situ and premalignant lesions of the prostate, and any other tumors that are diagnosed as
Carcinoma in Situ.
Carcinoma in Situ (CIS) ) means tumor cells tending toward malignancy but that do not invade the underlying
tissue or have the ability to spread beyond the site from which they originate (e.g. malignant cells confined to the
epithelium without penetration of the basement membrane). Because this cannot be diagnosed on a clinical basis, a
biopsy must be performed and examined by a physician familiar with the microscopic diagnoses of CIS for us to
consider it for benefits.
For the purposes of this policy, CIS of the skin will not be considered for benefits. All other tumors that are
diagnosed as carcinoma in situ to include melanoma in situ will be considered for benefits under this policy.
Certificate means the document that explains the parts of the Policy which apply to eligible Insured Persons. It may
include riders, endorsements or amendments.
Coma means a Coma resulting from a severe traumatic brain injury that results in a continuous state of profound
unconsciousness lasting for a period of 14 or more consecutive days, characterized by having a Glasgow scale of 3;
defined as the absence of:
• Eye opening;
• Verbal response; and
• Motor response.
The condition must require intubation for respiratory assistance.
Coronary Artery Bypass means coronary artery disease that has been clinically diagnosed and requires You to
undergo a surgical procedure to open a blockage of one or more coronary arteries using venous or arterial grafts.
Coronary Artery Bypass does not include balloon angioplasty, placement of intravascular stent, laser relief or other
like procedures.

Deafness.
Doctor means a person other than You or any family member, who is licensed to practice medicine in the state in
which treatment is received and providing treatment or advice in accordance with the license. State law may require
consideration of professional services of a practitioner other than a medical doctor. If so, then this definition includes
persons recognized as qualified to treat the condition for which claim is made by the state in which treatment is
received.
Eligibility Waiting Period means the continuous period of time (shown in the SCHEDULE OF BENEFITS) that
You must be in Active Employment in an eligible class before You are eligible for coverage under the Policy.
Employee means a person in Active Employment with the Employer in the United States.

hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis (at least weekly) in order to sustain life or renal transplantation is performed. This
definition includes You being placed on the UNOS (United Network for Organ Sharing) list for a renal transplant.
Heart Attack means an acute myocardial infarction (death of an area of heart muscle) that was caused by a
blockage of one or more coronary arteries. The medical evidence must be consistent with the diagnosis of heart
muscle death. Significant electrocardiogram (EKG) changes must be seen and one or both of the following must
confirm the acute myocardial infarction (Heart Attack):
• A clinical picture of myocardial infarction with cardiac enzyme changes found in the blood (elevated CK-MB
isoenzyme fraction or elevated troponins).

infarction.
Diagnosis must be made by a licensed cardiologist or another Doctor familiar with Heart Attack diagnosis.

resulting in You being placed on the UNOS (United Network for Organ Sharing) list for a transplant.
Permanent Paralysis means total and permanent loss of the use of two or more limbs (arms or legs or

Pre-Existing Condition means any medical condition for which You have been diagnosed or treated within the 12
month period prior to Your coverage effective date.
Skin Cancer means tumor cells tending toward malignancy and which invade the underlying tissue.
Because skin cancer can often not be confirmed without a tissue sample being evaluated under a microscope
(biopsy), we will only consider for benefits those skin cancers that have been biopsied and examined under a
microscope by a physician experienced in the diagnosis of such specimens.
Skin Cancer includes:
• Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma;
• Carcinoma of the skin; and
• Melanoma that is diagnosed as Breslow’s classification less than 0.75mm. Melanoma that is deeper than
0.75mm is considered for benefits under the "Cancer" section. For a definition of cancer see the section above
titled "Cancer".
Stroke means an acute cerebral event including infarction of brain tissue, cerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage,
cerebral embolism and cerebral thrombosis. The diagnosis of Stroke shall be based on confirmatory neuroimaging
studies and evidence of persistent neurological impairment confirmed by a neurologist or a Doctor familiar with the
diagnosis of Stroke at least 30 days after the event.
Stroke does not include:
• Temporary neurological deficits lasting less than 24 hours that result from a variety of causes; can be a
precursor to stroke; but, does not result in infarction/death of brain tissue.
• Ischemic disorders of the vestibular system.
• Brain injury related to trauma or infection.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE
If You are on an Employer-approved Leave of Absence after coverage becomes effective under the Policy, and if
premiums are paid, Your coverage may be continued beyond the date You are no longer in Active Employment,
limited to the time periods described below.
If You are on a Leave of Absence as described under the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 ("FMLA") or
applicable state family and medical leave law ("State FML"), and the Employer's Human Resource Policy provides for
continuation of the type of coverage provided under the Policy during an FMLA or State FML Leave of Absence, Your
coverage will be continued until the end of the later of:

last address as shown on Our records, stating when, not less than 31 days thereafter, such cancellation shall be
effective. The Policyholder may cancel this Policy at any time by written notice delivered or mailed to Us at Our home
office, effective on receipt or on such later date as may be specified in the notice. In the event of such cancellation by
either Us or by the Policyholder, We shall promptly return on a prorata basis the unearned premium paid, if any, and
the Policyholder shall promptly pay on a prorata basis the earned premium which has not been paid. (In computing
the prorata premium to be returned by Us or to be paid by the Policyholder, any discounts in premium or premium
rate actually allowed to the Policyholder because of the longer periods for which premiums, at the time of the
cancellation, had been paid or agreed to be paid shall be disregarded, and the prorata return or payment of premium
will be computed upon the basis of Our regular and customary premium or premium rate for the coverage of this
Policy.) Such cancellation shall be without prejudice to any claim originating prior to the effective date of such
cancellation.
PORTABILITY
Portability means You have the option to continue Your coverage after it would otherwise terminate, if certain
conditions are met.
To continue Your coverage, You must apply for portability and pay the first premium within 31 days of the date Your
coverage would otherwise terminate due to any of the following:

Insured Persons.
• The Policyholder cancels coverage under the Policy for all Insured Persons, and does not replace it with a similar
insurance plan.
• You are no longer eligible for coverage under the Policy.
You can decrease but not increase the ported coverage amount. Ported coverage is subject to all the terms of the
Policy and this Certificate.
Premiums will be billed directly to You. Continued premium payment is required to keep coverage in force.The initial
premium will be based on the portability premium rates in effect at the time You apply for portability. We may change
the portability premium rates at any time upon 60 days written notice to You.
Coverage continued under this provision will end on the earliest of the following:
• The end of the period for which You paid premiums, if You stop making a required premium contribution, subject
to the grace period.
• The date You die.

written notice of cancellation.
GRACE PERIOD
A grace period of 45 days will be granted for the payment of premiums accruing after the first premium, during which
grace period the Policy shall continue in force, but the Policyholder shall be liable to Us for the payment of the
premium accruing for the period the Policy continues in force.
RL-CI3-CERT-12-CA-R 12
B-14374 (03/14)
If You are on portability, You also have a grace period of 45 days for the payment of any premium due. During the
grace period Your coverage will remain in force, but You shall be liable to Us for the payment of the premium accruing
for the period Your coverage remains in force.
TIME LIMIT ON CERTAIN DEFENSES
After three years from Your effective date of coverage under the Policy, no misstatements, except fraudulent
misstatements made by You in Your application for coverage shall be used to contest Your coverage or to deny a
claim for loss incurred after the expiration of the three-year period.
No claim for loss incurred after three years from the effective date of Your coverage shall be reduced or denied on
the ground that a disease or physical condition, not excluded from coverage by name or specific description
effective on the date of loss, had existed prior to the effective date of Your coverage.
CLERICAL ERROR
Clerical error or omission by Us or by the Policyholder will not:
• Prevent You from receiving coverage, if You are entitled to coverage under the terms of the Policy.
• Cause coverage to begin or continue for You when the coverage would not otherwise be effective.
If the Policyholder gives Us information about You that is incorrect, We will do both of the following:
• Use the facts to decide whether You are eligible for coverage under the Policy and in what amounts.
• Make a fair adjustment of the premium.
MISSTATEMENT OF AGE
If Your age has been misstated, all amounts payable to You under the Policy shall be such as the premium paid
would have purchased at the correct age.
NOTICE OF CLAIM
Written notice of claim must be given to Us within 30 days after the occurrence or commencement of any loss
covered by the Policy, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible. Notice given by or on behalf of You to Us at
P.O. Box 20, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55440 or to Our authorized agent, with information sufficient to identify You,
shall be deemed notice to Us.
CLAIM FORMS
Upon receipt of a notice of claim, We or the Employer will furnish to You such forms as are usually furnished by Us
for filing proofs of loss. If such forms are not furnished within 15 days after the giving of such notice, You shall be
deemed to have complied with the requirements of the Policy as to proof of loss upon submitting, within the time
fixed in the Policy for providing proofs of loss, written proof covering the occurrence, the character and the extent of
the loss for which claim is made.
PROOFS OF LOSS
Written proof of loss must be furnished to Us within 90 days after the date of such loss. Failure to submit such proof
within the time required shall not invalidate nor reduce any claim if it was not reasonably possible to give proof
within such time, provided such proof is furnished as soon as reasonably possible and in no event, except in the
absence of Your legal capacity, later than one year from the time proof is otherwise required.
TIME OF PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
Indemnities payable under the Policy will be paid to You as they accrue immediately upon receipt of due written
proof of such loss.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
At Our expense, We shall have the right and opportunity to require You to be examined as it relates to the Injury
that is the basis of the claim. We can require such examination when and as often as We may reasonably require
during the pendency of a claim.
LEGAL ACTIONS
No action at law or in equity shall be brought to recover on the Policy prior to the expiration of 60 days after written
proof of loss has been furnished in accordance with the requirements of the Policy. No such action shall be brought
