This section modified by Amendment 1. View old language.

You and your Spouse's Retiree Health Plan coverage will be cancelled if you return to Covered Employment, as defined under the Southern California IBEW-NECA Pension Plan, and your pension benefit is suspended (in whole or part).

Your Retiree Health Plan coverage will be canelled effective on the last day of the month preceding the month in which any portion of your pension is suspended.

When you subsequently end Covered Employment, you must re-enroll in Retiree Health Plan coverage within 30 days of the later of:

1. The date of your next pension check;
2. The date your Active Health Plan coverage ends; or
3. The date your Active Health Plan COBRA continuation coverage ends.

You must re-enroll in Retiree Health Plan coverage within the timeframe detailed above.

To re-enroll in Retiree Health Plan coverage, you must follow the enrollment procedure detailed in Article 3.3: Enrolling in Coverage.

Whe you re-enroll in Retiree Health Plan coverage, your Retiree Health Plan benefits will begin on the later of:

1. The date of your next pension check; or
2. The day following the end of your Active Health Plan coverage; or
3. The day following the end of your Active Health Plan COBRA continuation coverage.

Notwithstanding the above, if the retiree has a conditional approval for working less than 40 hours by the Southern California IBEW-NECA Pension Plan and pension benefits have not been suspended, the retiree will be permitted to remain enrolled in the Retiree Health Plan. The retiree will not be eligible for enrollment in the Active Health Plan regardless of the number of reported health hours that may provide eligibility under the Active Health Hours. Retiree will remain responsible for paying the applicable protion of health premium.
