( FSA)
FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT
Nemak sponsors flexible spending accounts administered by Employee Benefits Corporation (EBC). This benefit helps you pay for everyday
medical expenses on a pre-tax basis through:
•
Medical Care Account: Set aside pre-tax contributions for medical, dental and vision expenses not paid by your (or your spouse’s)
insurance plans up to the annual maximum set by the IRS or your annual election.
Why enroll in an FSA Account?
» Contributions are payroll deducted throughout the year, and are contributed on a pre-tax basis, thereby lowering your taxable income.
» Elected FSA contributions are available on the first day of the plan year (or mid-year if hired after January 1).
» The FSA account can be used like a debit card at most doctors, retail stores, dental or vision offices.
Funding
Employee funds entire account.
Enrollment
Must re-enroll each year at Open Enrollment.
The plan year is from January through December.
Access To
Your Money
Prescriptions
For qualified medical expenses, you can access the
entire annual election amount any time during the year,
even if all the money has not been deducted.
You must obtain a prescription from a treating
physician for over the counter (OTC) medications
in order to use FSA dollars for reimbursement (one
prescription per OTC med, per year needed).
Use It Or Lose It
Any money left in the account at the end of the plan
year is forfeited. Note: Nemak offers a 2 months and
15 days grace period after the end of the plan year to
use up any remaining funds.
Substantiation
You keep receipts, and submit to EBC as requested,
to prove that the money spent was eligible.
Option To Change
Contributions
You can change election amount within 30 days of a
life qualifying event, (i.e., marriage, divorce, birth, etc.)
or during an annual Open Enrollment period.

OTHER WEL LNESS
PROGRAMS
The All-New Wellness Incentive Program
Eligible employees can earn $300 toward their 2024 medical plan premium by visiting a Primary Care Physician (PCP)
for an annual physical.
Earn the incentive in three simple steps:
1. Schedule a preventive care exam/physical with a PCP between November 1, 2022, and October 31, 2023. Under Nemak’s
BCBS TN insurance plan, all individuals receive one in-network preventive care visit per year at no cost.
2. Remind the doctor’s office to code the visit as a preventive care exam/annual physical.
3. BCBS TN will notify Nemak Human Resources of all employees who complete their visit and are eligible for the $300 credit.
Eligibility & Out of Pocket Costs
If you are enrolled in the Nemak medical plan, you must complete the PCP wellness program to be eligible for the 2024 premium
discount.
Physician offices have the right to charge your visit as non-preventive (medical in nature) if there were services provided during
your office visit that are not considered routine. In those cases, you may incur certain out-of-pocket costs for the visit if your plan
year deductible/annual out of pocket maximum has not been reached.

universities or colleges, business schools, high schools, and
trade or vocational schools. The courses may be either jobrelated or for the employee’s advancement within the Company.
The tuition assistance program is intended to encourage
employee participation in formal courses of study that relate to
the acquisition of job-related skills and knowledge. Courses of
study under this program are those which enable employees to
maintain or improve their performance in their current positions
or those which may prepare them for future positions at Nemak.
Participation is voluntary and class attendance and
homework assignments must be completed on the
employee’s personal time. The hours an employee spends
in attending classes and completing assignments under
the program will not be considered as hours of work and
the employee will not receive any pay from the Company
for these hours. Special shift accommodations will not
be made to enable an employee to attend class. Where
available, employees can voluntarily change shifts with
another employee.
The tuition assistance program is a training and
development tool that enables the Company and the
employee to jointly direct professional development in
accordance with the needs of the Company and the needs
of the individual. Therefore, a tuition assistance application
will be approved only if the course or courses meet the
needs of the Company and management’s assessment of
an employee’s capability and potential.
Wisconsin hourly employees may refer to the Wisconsin
Labor Agreement 2020-2022 for information pertaining to
tuition eligibility.
24
General Guidelines
Eligibility
All full-time employees are eligible to apply for tuition assistance.
However, the Company cannot guarantee that all applications for tuition
assistance will be granted. The availability of tuition assistance will
depend on the number of applications for assistance and the dollars
available for the program.
Employees receiving assistance from sources outside of the Company
(G.I. bill or scholarships) may apply for limited tuition assistance only
to the extent of the difference between the total cost of tuition and
registration fees and any reimbursement from other sources.
Prior to submitting tuition assistance applications, employees must
review with their supervisor the nature of their educational plan and
its relationship to department and Company objectives. All courses
must be related to a specific skill or knowledge required to maintain or
improve the employee’s capability to perform the current responsibilities.
Requests for reimbursement for courses that may prepare an employee
for future positions will be considered based on the future availability of
the position (s) and the employee’s potential of attaining the position(s).
To be eligible for reimbursement, an employee must start and complete
course work while in full-time active employment status and perform
at an acceptable performance level (minimum Meets Expectations).
Employees who are laid off or separated, through no fault of their own,
while participating in the Tuition Assistance Program will be reimbursed
for the approved course(s) that is underway at the time in which they
were laid off or separated, providing they complete it satisfactorily
and within the guidelines of this Policy. Employees who leave the
Company voluntarily, prior to course completion, will not be reimbursed.
Employees who are forced to withdraw from a course(s) due to an interor intra-company transfer will be reimbursed for tuition charges that they
are not able to recover.
25
Institutions & Courses
To qualify for tuition assistance, courses must be conducted by an accredited college or university as noted below. Consideration may also be
given to courses offered by other recognized and established institutions. Seminars are considered outside the scope of this policy.
Accreditation - In order to be approved under the program, the proposed USA educational institution will generally be required to be accredited by
one of the following six regional associations: The New England Association of Schools and Colleges; The Middle States Association of Colleges
and Schools; the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools; the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities; the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools; or the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. Accredited schools in the US must be included in the
list of accredited schools found at the following link: US Database of Institutions.
Accredited schools in Canada must be included in the list of accredited schools found at the following link: CAN Database of Institutions
Tuition Refund
An eligible employee will receive a refund of the full amount of the tuition and compulsory fees as noted below:
•
There is a maximum tuition amount allowed of $2,000.00* during the calendar year that applies to all non-credit
college or university courses.
•
There is a $5,250.00* limit per calendar year for approved university or college credit courses.
•
The tuition assistance program will reimburse 100% of the cost of tuition, laboratory fees and registration fees
(up to the maximum). Expenses for books, supplies, parking, thesis expenses, entrance equivalency exams, graduation fees, certification
fees, transportation and meals are excluded from reimbursement.
•
Nemak recommends that students be limited to no more than 2 courses per semester to support and encourage a
positive work life balance.
•
Reimbursement will be made after satisfactory completion of an approved course. Satisfactory completion will be defined as a grade of
“C” or better at the undergraduate level, “B” or better at the graduate level or “Pass” under a Pass/Fail grading system.
(*Above limits cannot be combined)
Prepayment Privilege
In the event the payment of tuition costs by the employee is burdensome and a hardship, employees who must pay over $1000 per semester for
tuition fees may submit a request to their local Human Resources that Nemak pay the tuition, not to exceed the maximum allowed, directly to the
university/college at the start of the course. Human Resources has the right, at their discretion, to deny the request or allow a partial pre-payment
privilege depending on the circumstances.
Employees who receive advanced tuition payment must have at least one-year service and will be responsible to follow the Employee Obligation
Agreement on the Tuition Application form.
26
Employee Retention Agreement
Reimbursement will be made only to those employees who are on the active payroll when payment is due and who execute an agreement to
reimburse Nemak at 100% if the employee leaves the Company less than 12 months after reimbursement or at 50% if the employee leaves the
Company 12 to 24 months after reimbursement.
Approvals
The tuition assistance application must be completed in advance of starting the first course outlining the requested Program and approvals
attained from the Training Advisory Committee which is comprised of 3 or more members of management (including the HR Manager) at each
location. Subsequent to initial approval of the Tuition Assistance Plan and in accordance with the Application, employees must submit a list of
courses for pre-approval before each semester. Approval is based on the contribution to the general development and potential of the individual as
an employee of the Company. The employee’s supervisor and HR department will be responsible for approving subsequent Applications.
The Plant Human Resources Manager will be responsible for ensuring that all course registration and subsequent tuition reimbursement requests
are in compliance with the Company’s applicable policies and within the initial coursework approval plan.
Exceptions
The HR Director will be responsible for any final interpretations or deviations of the Policy.
The company retains the right to modify this policy and will review its effectiveness as needed.

T IM E O FF
BENEFITS
Vacation Policy
Employees are entitled to paid vacation days each year. The amount of paid vacation time is based on the completed years of
continuous employment with Nemak and is accrued on the number of full months worked during the calendar year. Salaried
employees are eligible for vacation with pay at their individual base salary rates on the following basis:
COMPLETED YEARS OF NEMAK SERVICE
VACATION ENTITLEMENT
0-14 Years
20 Days (160 Hours)
15-19 Years
22.5 Days (180 Hours)
20+ Years
25 days (200 hours)
Normally, vacation hours are taken in full day (8 hours) increments but may be scheduled and taken in increments of a half day (4 hours).
Management will make every effort to accommodate the request for vacation time for the requesting employee. However, business
conditions could require a change in scheduling. In the event that the operation of a work unit may be impaired by scheduled
vacations, the manager may limit the number of employees who can take vacation at the same time. In such cases, the Manager,
in their sole discretion, will approve vacations based on the operational needs of the department/unit.
There is no carry-over of vacation from one calendar year to the next. Any unused vacation time at year-end will be forfeited.
Illness/Injury Leave Policy
In case of illness or accident occurring on or before the last working day before a scheduled vacation begins, arrangements may be
made to postpone the vacation. Illness or accident during a vacation, however, does not entitle an employee to additional time off.
A long-term illness or injury that prevents the employee from taking all their vacation entitlement at year-end may be paid out
with written approval from the Human Resources Manager.
29
Personal Time Off Policy
All salaried employees are entitled to two personal days per year, prorated
for new hires, to manage these absences. Personal days are to be used for
appointments and other dealings in their daily lives that prevent them from being
at work, but generally do not fit the definition of vacation time or result in their
own personal illness.
If the days are not needed for personal reasons, the employee is free to use
them at their discretion. If the employee routinely or occasionally has matters
that prevent him/her from being at work outside of personal illness, the Company
recommends that the employee keep them “on reserve” for these purposes.
For the purposes of overtime calculation for entitled salaried employees,
vacation days and personal days as outlined in this policy shall be included in
the 40-hour calculation.
Holidays
Nemak provides nine (9) paid holidays each year.
Those holidays are as follows:
• New Year’s Day
• Good Friday
• Memorial Day
• Independence Day
• Labor Day
• Thanksgiving Day
• Friday after Thanksgiving Day
• Christmas Eve
• Christmas Day
Parental Leave
After one year of full-time employment, Nemak provides paid leave associated
with the birth of an employee’s own child, or for the placement of a child with
the employee in connection with adoption or foster care. Parental leave is paid
for a maximum of two weeks and is not charged against the employee’s other
paid leave credits.

NOTICE REGARDING WELLNESS PROGRAMS
Nemak makes available is a voluntary wellness program available
to all employees. The program is administered according to federal
rules permitting employer-sponsored wellness programs that seek
to improve employee health or prevent disease, including the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Genetic Information
Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, and the Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act, as applicable, among others. If you choose
to participate in the wellness program you will be asked to complete
a voluntary annual physical/wellness exam with your chosen Primary
Care Physician (PCP).
You are not required to participate in the Nemak wellness program,
however, employees who choose to participate in the wellness
program will receive an incentive of a discount on medical plan
premiums for the following plan year.
The information from your annual voluntary physical/wellness exam
with your PCP can be used to provide you with information to help
you understand your current health and potential risks as discussed
between yourself and your PCP.
Protections from Disclosure of Medical Information
We are required by law to maintain the privacy and security of your
personally identifiable health information. Although the wellness
program and Nemak may use aggregate information it collects to
design a program based on identified health risks in the workplace,
Nemak will never disclose any of your personal information either
publicly or to the employer, except as necessary to respond to
a request from you for a reasonable accommodation needed to
participate in the wellness program, or as expressly permitted
by law. Medical information that personally identifies you that
is provided in connection with the wellness program will not be
provided to your supervisors or managers and may never be used to
make decisions regarding your employment.
Your health information will not be sold, exchanged, transferred, or
otherwise disclosed except to the extent permitted by law to carry
out specific activities related to the wellness program, and you will
not be asked or required to waive the confidentiality of your health
information as a condition of participating in the wellness program
or receiving an incentive. Anyone who receives your information
for the purpose of providing you services as part of the wellness
program will abide by the same confidentiality requirements. The
only individual(s) who will receive your personally identifiable health
information is Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee (wellness exams
are submitted by your PCP for claim processing under the Nemak
medical plan) in order to provide proof of employee participation in
the wellness program.
In addition, all medical information obtained through the wellness
program will be maintained separate from your personnel records,
information stored electronically will be encrypted, and no
information you provide as part of the wellness program will be used
in making any employment decision. Appropriate precautions will
be taken to avoid any data breach, and in the event a data breach
occurs involving information you provide in connection with the
wellness program, we will notify you immediately.
34
You may not be discriminated against in employment because of
the medical information you provide as part of participating in the
wellness program, nor may you be subjected to retaliation if you
choose not to participate.

I M P O RTAN T N OT IC E F ROM NEMA K USA IN C .
ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE & MEDICARE
Please read this notice carefully and keep it where you can find it.
This notice has information about your current prescription drug
coverage with Nemak USA Inc. and about your options under
Medicare’s prescription drug coverage. This information can help you
decide whether or not you want to join a Medicare drug plan. If you
are considering joining, you should compare your current coverage,
including which drugs are covered at what cost, with the coverage
and costs of the plans offering Medicare prescription drug coverage in
your area. Information about where you can get help to make decisions
about your prescription drug coverage is at the end of this notice.
When Can You Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
You can join a Medicare drug plan when you first become eligible for
Medicare and each year from October 15thto December 7th.
There are two important things you need to know about your current
coverage and Medicare’s prescription drug coverage:
If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current
Nemak USA Inc. Medical plan coverage, be aware that you and your
dependents will be able to get this coverage back.
1. Medicare prescription drug coverage became available in 2006
to everyone with Medicare. You can get this coverage if you join
a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or join a Medicare Advantage
Plan (like an HMO or PPO) that offers prescription drug coverage.
All Medicare drug plans provide at least a standard level of
coverage set by Medicare. Some plans may also offer more
coverage for a higher monthly premium.
2. Nemak USA Inc. has determined that the prescription drug
coverage offered by the Nemak USA Inc. Medical Plan is, on
average for all plan participants, expected to pay out as much
as standard Medicare prescription drug coverage pays and is
therefore considered Creditable Coverage. Because your existing
coverage is Creditable Coverage, you can keep this coverage
and not pay a higher premium (a penalty) if you later decide to
join a Medicare drug plan.
However, if you lose your current creditable prescription drug coverage,
through no fault of your own, you will also be eligible for a two (2) month
Special Enrollment Period (SEP) to join a Medicare drug plan.
What Happens To Your Current Coverage If You Decide to
Join A Medicare Drug Plan?
If you decide to join a Medicare drug plan, your current Nemak USA Inc
Plan coverage will not be affected.
WHEN WILL YOU PAY A HIGHER PREMIUM
(PENALTY) TO JOIN A MEDICARE DRUG PLAN?
You should also know that if you drop or lose your current coverage
with Nemak USA Inc. and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63
continuous days after your current coverage ends, you may pay a
higher premium (a penalty) to join a Medicare drug plan later.
If you go 63 continuous days or longer without creditable prescription
drug coverage, your monthly premium may go up by at least 1% of the
Medicare base beneficiary premium per month for every month that you
did not have that coverage. For example, if you go nineteen months
without creditable coverage, your premium may consistently be at least
19% higher than the Medicare base beneficiary premium. You may have
to pay this higher premium (a penalty) as long as you have Medicare
prescription drug coverage. In addition, you may have to wait until the
following October to join.

NEW HE ALTH INS U RA NCE MA RKETP L AC E
COVERAGE OPTIONS AND YOUR HEALTH COVERAGE
PART A: GENERAL INFORMATION
When key parts of the health care law take effect in 2014, there will be
a new way to buy health insurance: the Health Insurance Marketplace.
To assist you as you evaluate options for you and your family, this
notice provides some basic information about the new Marketplace and
employment-based health coverage offered by your employer.
What is the Health Insurance Marketplace?
The Marketplace is designed to help you find health insurance that
meets your needs and fits your budget. The Marketplace offers “onestop shopping” to find and compare private health insurance options.
You may also be eligible for a new kind of tax credit that lowers your
monthly premium right away. Open Enrollment for health insurance
coverage through the Marketplace begins in October 2013 for coverage
starting as early as January 1, 2014.
Can I Save Money on my Health Insurance Premiums in
the Marketplace?
You may qualify to save money and lower your monthly premium, but
only if your employer does not offer coverage, or offers coverage that
doesn’t meet certain standards. The savings on your premium that
you’re eligible for depends on your household income.
Does Employer Health Coverage Affect Eligibility for Premium
Savings through the Marketplace?
Yes. If you have an offer of health coverage from your employer that
meets certain standards, you will not be eligible for a tax credit through
the Marketplace and may wish to enroll in your employer’s health plan.
However, you may be eligible for a tax credit that lowers your monthly
premium, or a reduction in certain cost-sharing if your employer does
not offer coverage to you at all or does not offer coverage that meets
certain standards. If the cost of a plan from your employer that would
cover you (and not any other members of your family) is more than
9.5% of your household income for the year, or if the coverage your
employer provides does not meet the “minimum value” standard set by
the Affordable Care Act, you may be eligible for a tax credit.1
Note: If you purchase a health plan through the Marketplace instead of
accepting health coverage offered by your employer, then you may lose
the employer contribution (if any) to the employer-offered coverage.
Also, this employer contribution -as well as your employee contribution
to employer-offered coverage- is often excluded from income for
Federal and State income tax purposes. Your payments for coverage
through the Marketplace are made on an after-tax basis.
How Can I Get More Information?
For more information about your coverage offered by your employer,
please check your summary plan description or contact.
The Marketplace can help you evaluate your coverage options,
including your eligibility for coverage through the Marketplace and
its cost. Please visit HealthCare.gov for more information, including
an online application for health insurance coverage and contact
information for a Health Insurance Marketplace in your area.

An employer - sponsored health plan meets the “minimum value standard” if
the plan’s share of the total allowed benefit costs covered by the plan is no less than 60
percent of such costs.

Here is some basic information about health coverage offered by this employer:
• As your employer, we offer a health plan to:
� All employees. Eligible employees are:
� Some employees. Eligible employees are:
43
•
With respect to dependents:
� We do offer coverage. Eligible dependents are:
� We do not offer coverage.
� If checked, this coverage meets the minimum value standard*, and the cost of this coverage to you is intended to be affordable, based on
employee wages.
** Even if your employer intends your coverage to be affordable, you may still be eligible for a premium discount through the Marketplace.
The Marketplace will use your household income, along with other factors, to determine whether you may be eligible for a premium
discount. If, for example, your wages vary from week to week (perhaps you are an hourly employee or you work on a commission basis),
if you are newly employed mid-year, or if you have other income losses, you may still qualify for a premium discount.
If you decide to shop for coverage in the Marketplace, HealthCare.gov will guide you through the process. Here's the employer information you'll
enter when you visit HealthCare.gov to find out if you can get a tax credit to lower your monthly premiums

have a premium If you or your children are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and you’re eligible for health coverage from your employer, your state
may have a premium assistance program that can help pay for coverage, using funds from their Medicaid or CHIP programs. If you or your
children aren’t eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you won’t be eligible for these premium assistance programs but you may be able to buy individual
insurance coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. For more information, visit www.healthcare.gov.
If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP and you live in a State listed below, contact your State Medicaid or
CHIP office to find out if premium assistance is available.
If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents might be eligible for either
of these programs, contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply.
If you qualify, ask your state if it has a program that might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan.
44
If you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, as well as eligible under your employer plan, your employer
must allow you to enroll in your employer plan if you aren’t already enrolled. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity, and you must
request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance. If you have questions about enrolling in your employer plan,
contact the Department of Labor at www.askebsa.dol.gov or call 1-866-444-EBSA (3272).
