Introduction
The ExxonMobil Pre-Tax Spending Plan (the Plan) allows you to take
advantage of significant tax savings in three ways:
- When you elect coverage under a medical, dental
and/or vision plan to which a participating ExxonMobil employer contributes,
your required contributions (what you may think of as your premiums) will be on a pre-tax basis,
unless you opt out of this feature every year.
- The Health Care Flexible Spending Account allows you to set aside pre-tax money for the reimbursement of out-of-pocket medical, dental or vision expenses for both you and your family members.
- The Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account allows you to set aside pre-tax money for the reimbursement of day care charges provided for your children under age 13 or for a disabled child or adult who lives with you and depends on you financially. This account does not cover medical or dental expenses.
You may participate in one, two or all three parts of the Plan:
- You are enrolled to pay your contributions for medical,
dental and vision plan coverage on a pre-tax basis.
If you do not wish to pay your contributions on a pre-tax basis, you must opt out of this feature
each year during Annual Enrollment. If you do not opt out each year, your contributions will be made
on a pre-tax basis beginning the following plan year.
- Each year, you must elect an annual amount to contribute in order to participate in the Health Care
Flexible Spending Account and/or the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account.
Your participation in the Plan does not reduce any ExxonMobil benefits related to pay (for example,
Life Insurance and Savings Plan contributions).
To help you find specific plan information quickly and easily, these helpful tools are included:
- Plan at a Glance, a quick user's guide highlighting plan basics.
- Charts and tables throughout this SPD providing information, examples, highlights of plan provisions, etc.
- References to places you can get more information.
A careful reading of this SPD will help you understand how the Plan works so you can make the best use
of the plan provisions.
Plan at a Glance
Enrolling
If you are eligible, you may participate in one, two or all three parts of the Plan. See page 4.
Pre-Tax Contributions
You are enrolled to pay your contributions for medical, dental and
vision plan coverage on a
pre-tax basis. See page 13.
The Health Care Flexible Spending Account
You may set aside pre-tax dollars for unreimbursed, out-of-pocket medical, dental or vision expenses incurred by you and your family members during the plan year. See page
14.
The Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account
The Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account can help you pay for a family member's care expenses with pre-tax dollars if you provide day care for a qualified dependent so you, and your spouse if you are married, can work outside the home. Eligible expenses include charges for day care provided for your children under age 13 or for a disabled child or adult who lives with you and depends on you financially.
See page 21.
Getting Reimbursed
You may be reimbursed automatically from the Health Care Flexible Spending
Account for claims processed as a participant in the ExxonMobil Medical Plan
POS II "A" or "B" option, the ExxonMobil Dental Plan and
eligible claims processed by OptumHealth Vision for the ExxonMobil Vision
Plan. Otherwise, you must file a claim form and attach documentation of your
expenses to be reimbursed from either the Health Care or Dependent Care
Flexible Spending accounts. See page 24.
Tax Implications
The Plan provides significant tax savings. Examples show how you save taxes by
participating in the Plan. See page 28.
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act 1985 (COBRA)
You and your family members who lose eligibility may continue pre-tax coverage for a limited time under certain circumstances. See page
31.
Administrative and ERISA Information
The Plan is subject to rules of the federal government, including the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), not state insurance laws. See page
34.
