Claims Procedures. As required under [Section 2560.503-1(b)(2)])] of the Department of Labor Regulations, the claims procedures are set forth in the Plan’s Summary Plan Description, which claims procedures are incorporated by reference into the Plan. A Participant or a beneficiary, or the authorized representative of either (the “claimant”), may not bring an action under ERISA [Section 502(a)] or otherwise with respect to his or her claim until he or she has exhausted the claims procedures. Any such action must be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction within 12 months after the date on which the claimant receives the Committee’s written denial of the claimant’s claim on appeal or, if earlier, 12 months after the date of the alleged facts or conduct giving rise to the claim (including, without limitation, the date the claimant alleges he or she became entitled to Plan benefits requested in the suit or legal action), or it shall be forever barred. Any further review, judicial or otherwise, of the Committee’s decision on the claimant’s claim shall be limited to whether, in the particular instance, the Committee abused its discretion. In no event shall such further review, judicial or otherwise, be on a de novo basis, as the Committee has discretionary authority to determine eligibility and benefits and to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan.

A Participant or his or her beneficiary (if applicable) may file a written claim with the Committee with respect to his or her rights to receive a benefit from the Plan. ​ will be informed of the decision of the Committee with respect to the claim within 90 days after it is filed. Under special circumstances, the Committee may require an additional period of not more than 90 days to review a claim. If this occurs, ​ will be notified in writing as to the length of the extension, the reason for the extension, and any other information needed in order to process the claim. If a Participant is not notified within the 90-day (or 180-day, if so extended) period, he or she may consider the claim to be denied.

Administrative Claims. A claim or appeal relating to eligibility to participate in the Plan, status as a Vested Participant, required contributions or any other claim or appeal that is not a claim or appeal relating to a medical or life insurance benefit under the Plan will be considered an “Administrative Claim” and will be subject to the claims and appeals procedures set forth in this section 7.02. Administrative Claims will be decided by the Corporate Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, or his or her delegate, who will be the claims administrator and the appropriate named fiduciary with respect to such claims.
