To take advantage of any residual value the benefit plans may provide, you will need to:
- Read the booklet, Participant Rights and Responsibilities Upon Transfer or Termination.
- Familiarize yourself with the opportunities available to you after your participation ceases.
- Follow-up on required actions described in the booklet sections titled "Participant Responsibilities."
Customer contacts are listed in Participant Rights and Responsibilities Upon Transfer or Termination booklet.
