Claims
and Review Procedures


 


6.1
Claims Procedure. The Bank will notify any person or entity that makes a claim for benefits under this Agreement (the “Claimant”)
in writing, within 90 days after receiving Claimant’s written application for benefits, of his or her eligibility or noneligibility
for benefits under the Agreement. If the Administrator determines that the Claimant is not eligible for benefits or full benefits, the
notice will state (w) the specific reasons for denial, (x) a specific reference to the provisions of the Agreement on which
the denial is based, (y) a description of any additional information or material necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or
her claim, and a description of why it is needed, and (z) an explanation of the Agreement’s claims review procedure and
other appropriate information concerning steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to have the claim reviewed. If the Administrator determines
that there are special circumstances requiring additional time to make a decision, the Bank will notify the Claimant of the special circumstances
and the date by which a decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional 90 days.


 


6.2
Review Procedure. If the Claimant is determined by the Administrator not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Claimant believes
that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant will have the opportunity to have his or her claim reviewed
by the Bank by filing a petition for review with the Bank within 60 days after receipt of the notice issued by the Bank. The Claimant’s
petition must state the specific reasons the Claimant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within
60 days after receipt by the Bank of the petition, the Administrator will give the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present
his or her position verbally or in writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) will have the right to review the pertinent documents. The
Administrator will notify the Claimant of the Administrator’s decision in writing within the 60-day period, stating specifically
the basis of its decision, written in a manner to be understood by the Claimant, and the specific provisions of the Agreement on which
the decision is based. If, because of the need for a hearing, the 60-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up
to another 60 days at the election of the Administrator, but notice of this deferral will be given to the Claimant.
