New Hire Enrollment Guide

E xp l o r e You r Tot a l R e w a r d s
DEAR FEDEX OFFICE TEAM MEMBER,
Your opportunity to enroll in FedEx Office Health & Welfare Plans begins 60 days before, and ends
on, your benefits effective date. You are eligible for benefits on the first of the month following three
months of continuous, uninterrupted full-time service. Please be aware that FedEx Office Health & Welfare
Plans operate on a pre-tax basis, which requires strict adherence to IRS regulations. If you miss your enrollment
deadline, the IRS will not allow FedEx Office to make an exception for you.
During your benefits election window, you have the chance to make choices regarding the FedEx Office Health
& Welfare Plans. You’ll want to make sure those choices are right for you and your family. Before you make
your benefit elections, take some time to consider your needs. Review the types of medical services and
benefits that are most important to you, and prioritize them.
For example, some team members may want the lowest amount possible deducted from their paycheck
while making sure they are still covered for catastrophic illnesses. For others, protection against all medical
expenses in addition to catastrophes are important, even though it may be more expensive. FedEx Office offers
healthcare plans that address all of these needs.
If you are a first-time benefits eligible team member and do not want medical, dental or vision coverage, no
action is necessary. If you do not enroll on or before your benefits effective date, you will not have medical,
dental or vision coverage through FedEx Office. You will be automatically covered by FedEx Office Basic Life
Insurance, Short- and Long-term Disability Plans and the Employee Assistance Program. If you do not enroll
during your enrollment period, you are only eligible to change your benefits during the next Annual Open
Enrollment period or within 31 days of a qualifying event.
If you are returning to full-time FedEx Office employment, please review the “Qualifying Events “in the 2009
Health & Welfare Summary Plan Description folder in the Benefits Library at benefits.fedexkinkos.com
for extremely important benefit information. Based on the timing of your rehire and the length of time you
were away from FedEx Office, it may be necessary for you to re-elect benefits to avoid being left without
coverage. You can also call the FedEx Office Benefit Service Center toll-free at 1.866.866.9050 for assistance
in determining your status.
FedEx Office benefits plan enrollment must be completed via benefits.fedexkinkos.com on or before your
benefits eligibility date. The Benefits Service Center staff is available toll free at 1.866.866.9050 8:00 am –
5:00pm CST to provide personal guidance on the Web-based system. If you do not have Web access at home,
you will be allowed to use a branch PC to complete the enrollment process on or before your deadline.
Note: The FedEx Office web enrollment is not compatible with the Macintosh system.
When you visit benefits.fedexkinkos.com, you’ll see many items that will help you learn more about the
benefits package available to you. FedEx Office spends over $65 million annually on Health & Welfare
benefits. Please take the time to understand your options and make the best choices for you and your family.
Best regards,
FedEx Office Benefits Department
Remember, FedEx Office Plans operate on a pre-tax basis, which requires strict adherence to IRS regulations. If you miss
the enrollment deadline, the IRS will not allow FedEx Office to make an exception for you.

NEW HIRE ENROLLMENT TIPS
Follow these steps to make sure you elect the benefits you want and need for 2009:
1. Review your choices carefully. Read this guide to learn about the benefit plans and enrollment options.
Take advantage of the information and provider links available to do more in-depth research. Use the
on-line Decision Tools available at benefits.fedexkinkos.com to help you choose the best options for
you and your family.
2. Decide what you want. It is very important that you review your options and make election decisions
before you actually enroll. This will help you choose the best options for you and your family.
3. Follow these enrollment steps:
a. Logon to benefits.fedexkinkos.com
b. Sign in using your KID (or SSN) and PIN (month and day of your birth in “mmdd” format – unless you
previously changed your PIN.) Contact the Benefits Service Center at 1.866.866.9050, option 0, for
PIN assistance
c. Review your Personal Information
d. Generate your 2009 Personalized Enrollment Worksheet
e. Review/Update your list of dependents
f. Designate your Plan Elections for 2009
g. Update your beneficiaries
4. Review your 2009 Elections carefully. On the Summary page you can review your elections. If you are
not satisfied with your elections or changes, you may make any corrections before the enrollment deadline.
5. Print your 2009 Election Summary. Print out a copy of the Summary page for your records. After your
enrollment window closess, the Benefits Department will mail you a Confirmation Statement. When you
receive this statement, compare your Summary page to your official Confirmation Statement and contact
the Benefits Service Center at 1.866.866.9050, option 0, immediately if you notice any discrepancies.

HOW TO BE AN ACTIVE HEALTHCARE CONSUMER
You share the cost of benefits with FedEx Office, so any savings we can create will not only help the company,
but will also help you! Savings help us reduce the need for future cost increases or benefit changes. We can’t
reverse the trend of rising healthcare costs, but there are some things each of us can do to help keep costs
manageable.
The best way to curb healthcare costs is to make healthy life choices!
What Can You Do To Improve Your Health?
• Eat right. Invest the time and effort to make healthy choices at home and when you are dining out.
• Exercise. It’s cheaper to spend $50 a year on a pair of walking shoes than $57,000 on heart bypass surgery.
• Get sufficient rest. Studies show fatigue contributes to many accidents and lowers your resistance to disease.
• Get immunized. Like the shoes, it’s much cheaper to get shots than it is to treat the conditions they prevent.
• Quit smoking. It’s tough…we all know that. It may help to consider the costs – once you are smoke free for
five years, you will have more than $6,000 that you didn’t spend on a pack a day during that time. Learn
more about the Smoking Cessation benefit by visiting benefits.fedexkinkos.com.
• Get a physical. This may help you detect problems early and get treatment sooner.

HEALTH EXAMINATION CHECKLIST
The checklist combines screening information from the Mayo Clinic and the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services. Screening tests can find diseases early when they are easier to treat. This timetable is a
general recommendation, only. A preventative health plan should also include talking to your doctor about
alcohol and drug use, smoking cessation, nutrition, exercise and mental health.

MEDICAL PLAN OPTIONS (continued)
Orange Medical Plan
This Plan provides medical and prescription drug coverage. The team member contribution (payroll deduction)
on this Plan is less than the contribution on the Blue Plan, but the deductible and out-of-pocket limit is
significantly higher. This Plan encourages the use of PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) providers but will
allow you to see any doctor. Your reimbursement level drops from 70% to 50% of UCR (Usual, Customary &
Reasonable charges) if you do not use a PPO provider. Certain ‘Special Medical Benefits’ are paid before the
annual deductible is applied (see the Schedule of Benefits for the Orange Medical Plan section of the 2009
Summary Plan Description for a complete list). There is also no reimbursement for medical expenses over
UCR amounts. Please note, you may want to consider taking advantage of the HCRA program, using pre-tax
dollars to pay for eligible medical expenses incurred. See the Flexible Spending Account section of this
document for more details.

John decides to cover his family (John, his wife, and son) under the new FedEx
Office medical plans. During the plan year, John and his family do not incur any
medical claims other than three visits to their network primary care physician
(PCP), each of which was under $500/visit. Which new FedEx Office medical
plan offers John the most cost effective medical plan option?
Orange Plan Calculation –
• Co-pay - $90 ($30 for Primary Care Physician visit X 3 total visits); team member is only
charged a co-pay if total allowable charges are under $500 for an office visit
• Deductible - $0
• Co-insurance - $0
• Annual Premiums - $1,581.24
– $131.77 (Orange Plan Team Member and Family monthly coverage) multiplied by 12 months
Joy elects to cover herself and her husband under the new FedEx Office medical
plans. During the plan year, Joy and her husband both have one visit each to
their allergist (each under $500/visit) and Joy undergoes hip replacement surgery
at a network facility (assume allowable charges of $5,000). Which new FedEx
Office medical plan offers Joy the most cost effective medical plan option?
Blue Plan Calculation –
• Co-pay - $100 ($50 for Specialist visit X 2 total visits); team member is only charged a co-pay
if total charges are under $500
• Deductible - $600 is the deductible for the Blue Plan
• Co-insurance - $880
– $5,000 allowable charges - $600 deductible = $4,400 remaining allowable charges
– $4,400 remaining allowable charges; 80% covered by insurance ($3,520), 20% covered by
team member ($880)
• Annual Premiums - $1,713.84
– $142.82 (Blue Plan Team Member and Spouse/DP monthly coverage) multiplied by 12 months
Jeff decides to elect team member only coverage under the new FedEx Office
medical plans. During the plan year, Jeff has a minor heart procedure at the
local network hospital (assume allowable charges of $20,000). Which new
FedEx Office medical plan offers Jeff the most cost effective option?
Purple Plan Calculation –
• Co-pay - $0 (no office visits)
• Deductible - $300 is the deductible for the Purple Plan
• Co-insurance - $1,200
– $20,000 allowable charges - $300 deductible = $19,700 remaining allowable charges
– $19,700 remaining allowable charges; 90% covered by insurance ($17,730), 10% covered
by team member ($1,970)
– $1,970 co-insurance reduced to $1,200 as $300 plus the $1,200 co-insurance equals the
out of pocket limit for the Purple Plan of $1,500
• Annual Premiums - $1,209.00

DENTAL PLAN OPTIONS
PPO Dental Plan
This Plan offers comprehensive dental coverage for you and your eligible dependents. The team member
contribution (payroll deduction) on this Plan is more than the contribution on the Dental Assistance Plan, but
pays for services based on co-insurance vs. fixed amounts. This Plan encourages the use of PPO (Preferred
Provider Organization) providers but will allow you and your enrolled dependents to see any doctor. Additional
discounts are offered by PPO providers. Preventative Services are paid at 100% and are payable before your
deductible has been satisfied. There is no reimbursement for routine and major dental expenses until the
annual deductible has been satisfied. There is also no reimbursement for dental expenses over UCR amounts.

DENTAL PLAN OPTIONS (continued)
Dental Assistance Plan
This Plan utilizes the same network of dentists as the PPO Dental plan. You and your eligible dependents are
free to go to the dentist of your choice, but PPO dentists will offer you discounted rates. The Dental Assistance
Plan “assists” in making the payment to your dentist. The rates for this Plan are significantly lower than rates
for the PPO Dental Plan, but the coverage is not as comprehensive. Payments by the Plan are fixed at a set
amount and cannot be changed so therefore, you can significantly reduce your out of pocket expense under
this plan by utilizing PPO network dentists. For example, the payment for an adult standard filling is $31.00.
This is the total amount that the Plan will pay. If you go to see a participating PPO dentist and are charged
$60 for the filling, the Plan will pay $31.00 and you will be responsible for the $29.00 difference. If you go to
see a non-participating dentist and are charged $90.00 for the filling, the Plan will again pay $31.00 and you
will be responsible for the $59.00 difference.

access discounted rates and have fewer out-of-pocket expenses. Refer to the 2009 Summary Plan Description at
benefits.fedexkinkos.com for the complete schedule of benefits.
VISION PLAN OPTION
Services are provided via the Vision Service Plan, which utilizes a national network of preferred providers.
Non-network provider charges are reimbursed at scheduled rates. This Plan covers an eye exam and lenses
every twelve months and frames every twenty-four months. Contact lenses are also available.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM FEDEX OFFICE AND PRINT SERVICES, INC.
ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE AND 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 FedEx Office and Print Services, 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.
There are two important things you need to know about your current coverage and Medicare’s
prescription drug coverage:
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. FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. has determined that the prescription drug coverage offered by the
FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. Health 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.
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
November 15th through December 31st.
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 FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc. Health Plan
coverage will not be affected. Your current medical coverage pays for other health expenses, in addition
to prescription drugs, and you will still be eligible to receive all of your current health and prescription drug
benefits if you choose to enroll in a Medicare prescription drug plan. Please refer to your summary plan
description for a summary of the prescription drug coverage included in each medical plan option available
to you.
If you do decide to join a Medicare drug plan and drop your current FedEx Office and Print Services, Inc.
coverage, be aware that you and your dependents will not be able to get this coverage back absent a
qualifying event.
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 the FedEx Office and Print
Services, Inc. Health Plan and don’t join a Medicare drug plan within 63 continuous days after your current
coverage ends, you might 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 November to join.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM FEDEX OFFICE AND PRINT SERVICES, INC.
ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE AND MEDICARE (continued)
For More Information About This Notice Or Your Current Prescription
Drug Coverage…
Contact Anthem Blue Cross at 1-888-252-6941. NOTE: You’ll get this notice each year. You will also get it
before the next period you can join a Medicare drug plan, and if this coverage through the FedEx Office and
Print Services, Inc. Health Plan changes. You also may request a copy of this notice at any time.
For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage:
More detailed information about Medicare plans that offer prescription drug coverage is in the “Medicare &
You” handbook. You’ll get a copy of the handbook in the mail every year from Medicare. You may also be
contacted directly by Medicare drug plans.
For more information about Medicare prescription drug coverage:
• Visit www.medicare.gov
• Call your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (see the inside back cover of your copy of the
“Medicare & You” handbook for their telephone number) for personalized help
• Call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048.
If you have limited income and resources, extra help paying for Medicare prescription drug coverage is available.
For information about this extra help, visit Social Security on the web at www.socialsecurity.gov, or call
them at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).
Remember: Keep this Creditable Coverage notice. If you decide to join one of the Medicare
drug plans, you may be required to provide a copy of this notice when you join to show
whether or not you have maintained creditable coverage and, therefore, whether or not you
are required to pay a higher premium (a penalty).
