Please PRINT CLEARLY or TYPE the names of the beneficiaries.

 

   

To name a trust as Beneficiary, please provide the name of the trustee(s) and the exact name and date of the trust agreement.

 

   

To name your estate as Beneficiary, please write “Estate of [your name]”.

 

   

Be aware that none of the contingent beneficiaries will receive anything unless ALL of the primary beneficiaries predecease you.

I understand that I may change these beneficiary designations by delivering a new written designation to the Plan Administrator, which shall be effective only upon receipt and acknowledgment by the Plan Administrator prior to my death. I further understand that the designations will be automatically revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases me, or, if I have named my spouse as Beneficiary and our marriage is subsequently dissolved.
