Chubb is offering a balance election window ending on March 2, 2016 to encourage you to elect how you want your balance distributed.

Also, depending on the amount of your account balance and investment options, how you make your election will differ. Below is a summary of your distribution options and the steps to make your CCAP balance election.

IMPORTANT!
If you elect a rollover to the ACE Savings Plan, you will be able to change that election up until the close of the election window at 11:59 p.m. ET on March 2, 2016. All other distribution elections will be processed immediately, and you will not be able to change your election.
IF YOU DON’T MAKE AN ELECTION
If you don’t make an election by 11:59 p.m. ET on March 2, 2016:
• |
| Your CCAP account balance will remain in CCAP and continue to be invested in your current CCAP investment options (excluding the Chubb Stock Fund and ESOP). You may continue making exchanges between the funds in the CCAP until CCAP closes (or is “terminated,” by IRS requirements, approximately 12-18 months from the merger date with ACE). During this time, you may elect to roll over your CCAP balance to the ACE Savings Plan, an IRA, or another tax-qualified plan at any time by calling Fidelity at 1-800-939-2227 (representatives are available Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. ET, excluding most New York Stock Exchange holidays). |
• |
| Once the CCAP Plan termination has been approved by the IRS, anyone who has not made an active election will have their balance rolled over to the ACE Savings Plan. |
IF YOU HAVE AN OUTSTANDING LOAN FROM CCAP
If you have a loan from CCAP, you should have made an election on the Chubb Transition Website between January 5-20, 2016.
If you elected to roll over your loan(s) to the ACE Savings Plan, you do not need to make an election during the balance election window. Your CCAP account balance, as well as your outstanding loan balance, will be rolled over to the ACE Savings Plan to maintain ongoing payroll-deducted loan repayments.
If you chose not to roll over your CCAP loan balance to the ACE Savings Plan, you will need to make an election by March 2, 2016, indicating whether you are:
• |
| Rolling your balance over to an IRA (to Fidelity or another financial institution) or another tax-qualified plan. |
• |
| Taking a partial rollover to an IRA or another tax-qualified plan and have the remaining portion paid to you as a cash distribution. |
• |
| Taking your CCAP balance and have it paid to you as a cash distribution, minus taxes and penalties. |
• |
| Keeping your balance in CCAP up until the Plan terminates (approximately 12–18 months from the merger close date with ACE). |
You can continue making monthly loan payments directly to Fidelity until your balance is rolled over or distributed. To set up recurring payments from your bank account, contact Fidelity at 1-800-929-2227. If you take no action or take a distribution of your account before your loan is paid off in full, the loan will be defaulted and you will incur tax consequences and possible penalties.

CHUBB STOCK FUND AND/OR ESOP
The closing of CCAP to new contributions may create a taxable event if you are invested in the Chubb Stock Fund and/or ESOP. Participants who meet the eligibility criteria can minimize the taxes due on their investment gains by preserving the cost basis (the price you initially paid for the Chubb Stock Fund and/or ESOP investments).
Understanding Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA) You are eligible for NUA preservation
NUA is the difference between the price you paid for Chubb Stock in the provided you are:
Chubb Stock Fund and/or ESOP (your cost basis) and what the stock is • age 59 1/2 or older as of the worth today. Because Chubb is merging with ACE and becoming a new distribution date entity, the Chubb Stock Fund and ESOP will no longer exist. Any shares you currently hold will automatically convert to approximately 50% • you have separated service from in the “New Chubb” Stock Fund and/or ESOP and 50% to a money Chubb or ACE prior to CCAP market fund (the Money Market Portfolio—Chubb Stock—Government terminating (approximately 12-18 and/or the Money Market Portfolio—ESOP Stock—Government) as of months after the merger close date). the merger close date.
How to Retain Your Cost Basis for the Balance in the “New Chubb” Stock Fund and/or ESOP
To preserve your cost basis, you must withdraw the “New Chubb” stock from CCAP and move it to a non-retirement brokerage account. You must also take a full distribution of your remaining account balance by electing to roll it over to the
ACE Savings Plan, an IRA or other tax-qualified plan, or by taking a cash distribution.
How to Retain Your Cost Basis for the Balance in the Money Market Portfolio
If you currently have a balance in the Chubb Stock Fund and/or ESOP, you will have 90 days from the date the converted Chubb Stock Fund or ESOP shares are invested in the Money Market Portfolio—Chubb Stock—Government and/or the Money Market Portfolio—ESOP Stock—Government to purchase stock units in the “New Chubb” Stock Fund or ESOP to preserve your maximum NUA, if you are eligible to do so (see the Transition Guide for eligibility requirements). You can make this exchange on Fidelity NetBenefits®. If you leave your balance in the money market fund beyond 90 days or exchange it into other investment options, you will not retain the cost basis associated with the money market fund and will lose your NUA for those shares.
Due to certain SEC regulatory filings that still need to be completed, participants who have separated service from Chubb prior to the merger date with ACE will not be able to exchange cash proceeds that have been invested in the new money market funds into the “New Chubb” Stock fund and/or ESOP fund until a later date. Information will be available on the
Chubb Transition Website, please check the site for updates. You should discuss your options with your tax and/or financial advisor before you take any action.
To Make an Exchange
1. Log on to Fidelity NetBenefits® and choose “Change Investments” from the Quick Links dropdown under CCAP.
2. Make an exchange from either/both the Money Market Portfolio—Chubb Stock—Government and/or the Money Market Portfolio—ESOP Stock—Government to the “New Chubb” Stock Fund or ESOP to preserve your maximum NUA, if eligible.
Making Your Balance Election to Preserve Your Cost Basis
After you have reinvested any balance in the money market fund into the “New Chubb” Stock Fund or ESOP (see “How to Retain Your Cost Basis for the Balance in the Money Market Portfolio” above), call a Fidelity Guidance Representative at 1-800-939-2227 during the balance election window (February 2—March 2, 2016). The Representative can help you get your balance moved in kind into a non-retirement brokerage account which will preserve your cost basis.

WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN MAKING YOUR DECISION
Before you choose your distribution option, you will want to think about your financial/retirement goals and how the different distribution options can help you reach those goals. Consider the following:
• |
| Your age, remaining working years and expected retirement date. |
• |
| Other sources of retirement income, such as Social Security, other accrued pension benefits, savings plan balances and personal savings. |
• |
| Your comfort level with making ongoing investment decisions. |
• |
| If you have a balance in the Chubb Stock Fund and/or ESOP and want to preserve the cost basis of the original stock price (if you are eligible). |
• |
| Your immediate financial needs. |
• |
| The tax consequences of taking a lump sum cash payment today versus the opportunity to defer taxes if you roll over your distribution into the ACE Savings Plan, an IRA, or another tax-qualified plan. |
• |
| If you have a loan, decide if you would like to continue making payments directly to Fidelity (if you keep your balance in CCAP), or pay it off in full. |
You should also discuss your options with your tax and/or financial advisor before you take any action.
