** In this chart, the contribution rate of October of the year prior to the year in which the month of your final payment fell (the “month of your final payment” being the month prior to the month in which the day of your ceasing to be qualified as an insured person fell) is for purposes of convenience referred to as the “contribution rate.” If the month of your final contribution was between January and October, the contribution rate is that of the October of the year two years prior.
