Continuation of benefit coverage after your last day of employment with Red Robin:

If you had benefit coverage as of your termination date and want to voluntarily elect to continue participation in RRGB’s medical, dental, vision, and healthcare flexible spending account plans, you must elect this coverage under COBRA. Each of your dependents can elect COBRA separately.

Within two weeks of termination, Planned Benefit Systems (PBS) will mail to your address on file information on your rights to continue these programs for up to 18 months. You pay the full cost for elected COBRA coverage. You will have a maximum of 60 days from receipt to elect coverage with PBS, and your coverage will be effective on the first day of the month following your termination date. PBS will collect your enrollments, forward your eligibility to each elected benefit vendor, receive and maintain your COBRA billing, and administer your COBRA rights as provided by law. Contact Planned Benefit Systems at 800-800-0133, via email at cobra@cci-pbs.com, or online at www.cci-pbs.com with any questions.

Please review the termination provisions in your stock option agreements.

If you have the opportunity to exercise any vested options, you can do so online through your E*Trade account.

However, if the combined balance of linked E*Trade securities accounts is less than $2,000, E*Trade will begin to assess a quarterly service fee, currently at $40/quarter, to maintain the brokerage account. This fee can be waived should certain qualified transactions take place during the applicable quarter. There is a list of the qualified transactions on the E*Trade website at www.etrade.com/fees. Scroll down to the Account Activity Fees section. If you do not plan to use your E*Trade account after termination, you can call customer service to cancel the account.
