'Party' or "Parties" as appropriate) agree as follows:

DEFINITIONS
For purposes of this Policy and any amendments, attachments, or schedules to this Policy, the following words and
terms have the following meanings unless the context or use clearly indicates another meaning or intent. If a term is
not defined, the term shall have the same meaning as defined in the Administrative Services Agreement between the
Parties.

responsible. Anthem is financially responsible for Paid Claims in excess of the Aggregate Stop Loss Limit according

calculation of the Aggregate Stop Loss Limit results in a lower amount than the Minimum Aggregate Stop Loss Limit,
the Minimum Aggregate Stop Loss Limit shall be the Aggregate Stop Loss Limit.
PAID CLAIM. A Claim for services rendered or supplies provided to a Member under the terms of the Plan, provided
such Claim has been received and adjudicated by Anthem. Paid Claim shall have the same meaning as contained in
the Administrative Services Agreement between the Parties, unless specifically excluded as indicated in Sections
4(e) and 5(d) of Schedule A.
SPECIFIC STOP LOSS LIMIT. The threshold total dollar amount of Paid Claims for which Employer is financially
responsible with respect to a Subscriber or Member as indicated in Section 4(a) of Schedule A. Subject to the terms
of this Policy, Anthem is financially responsible for Paid Claims in excess of the Specific Stop Loss Limit.

provided in Sections 4(a) and 4(b) of Schedule A exceeds the Specific Stop Loss Limit provided in Section

Limit shall be applied towards attainment of any Aggregate Stop Loss Limit.

Aggregate Stop Loss Limit during a Policy Period or a partial Policy Period.
3.2 When the total amount of Paid Claims for all Subscribers or Members and the Lines of Coverage indicated
in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of Schedule A exceeds the Aggregate Stop Loss Limit, Anthem shall reimburse
Employer for such excess. Anthem's reimbursement under this Article 3 shall occur no later than 90 days

Claims that were denied by Anthem or take other actions with respect to the Plan that are not specifically
provided under the Plan. In such cases, payments shall not count toward the stop loss accumulators under
this Policy unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Anthem.
4.4 If a Member does not enroll when first eligible or within the applicable enrollment period provided in the Plan
for a special enrollment event, the Member shall be considered a "Late Enrollee" as defined under the Plan.
