If you satisfy Item 1, we will determine your payments according to the Unum plan provisions. If you only satisfy Item 2, we will administer your claim according to the Unum plan provisions. However, your payment will be the lesser of: a. the monthly benefit that would have been payable under the terms of the prior plan if it had remained inforce; or b. the monthly payment under the Unum plan. Your benefits will end on the earlier of the following dates: 1. the end of the maximum benefit period under the plan; or 2. the date benefits would have ended under the prior plan if it had remained in force. WHAT INSURANCE IS AVAILABLE IF YOU END EMPLOYMENT? (Conversion) If you end employment with your Employer, your coverage under the plan will end. You may be eligible to purchase insurance under Unum's group conversion policy. To be eligible, you must have been insured under your Employer's group plan for at least 12 consecutive months. We will consider the amount of time you were insured under the Unum plan and the plan it replaced, if any. You must apply for insurance under the conversion policy and pay the first quarterly premium within 31 days after the date your employment ends. Unum will determine the coverage you will have under the conversion policy. The conversion policy may not be the same coverage we offered you under your Employer's group plan. You are not eligible to apply for coverage under Unum's group conversion policy if: - you are or become insured under another group long term disability plan within 31 days after your employment ends; - you are disabled under the terms of the plan; - you recover from a disability and do not return to work for your Employer; - you are on a leave of absence; or - your coverage under the plan ends for any of the following reasons: the plan is cancelled; the plan is changed to exclude the group of employees to which you belong; you are no longer in an eligible group; you end your working career or retire and receive payment from any Employer's retirement plan; or you fail to pay the required premium under this plan. HOW CAN UNUM'S REHABILITATION AND RETURN TO WORK ASSISTANCE PROGRAM HELP YOU RETURN TO WORK? Unum has a vocational Rehabilitation and Return to Work Assistance program available to assist you in returning to work. We will determine whether you are eligible for this program. In order to be eligible for rehabilitation services and benefits, you must be medically able to engage in a return to work program.
