OVERVIEW
Listing of Your Benefits

Through the benefits we offer, Valassis constantly strives to meet your needs. We offer you a variety of programs that address your health, financial and family needs. Below is only a brief description of some of the benefits available to you as a Valassis associate, provided you meet the eligibility requirements of each benefit.

Medical
Under your medical plan, you have several options, including the PPO Basic, Buy-Up and the Health Choice Savings plans. With each plan, you also receive a prescription drug benefit.

Dental
Your dental plan consists of three options: the Basic plan, the Buy-Up Plan and the Dental Maintenance Organization (DMO). Each of these plans provides for your family's dental care.

Vision
We offer a voluntary vision care plan to associates.

Disability
Full-time associates (scheduled to work 37.5 or more hours a week) are eligible for short-term and long-term disability insurance coverage under Valassis' disability plan.

Life Insurance
There are several life and accident insurance options available to you. These include basic life insurance, basic accidental death and dismemberment insurance, voluntary life insurance and dependent life insurance for your spouse, domestic partner and dependent children.

Flexible Spending Accounts
Flexible spending accounts (FSA) provide a way for you to save for qualified expenses on a pretax basis, saving you significant tax dollars. You can cover health care expenses by enrolling in the health care FSA, or you can cover dependent care expenses under the dependent care FSA. In addition, when you join a dependent care FSA, Valassis will match the first $600 you contribute, to help you pay your qualified child or adult care expenses.

Investments
Investment plans for your financial future make up part of the Valassis benefits program. We offer you 401(k) tax-deferred savings opportunities through the Valassis Retirement Savings Plan. Roth 401(k) after-tax deferred savings are also available. Another feature of this plan is profit sharing contributions, which allow eligible associates to share in the financial success of the company.

Paid Time Off
Valassis offers you generous time off plans. As an associate you are eligible for vacation time, paid holidays and sick time.

Other Benefits
We also provide a number of other benefits that help make up our very comprehensive benefit package:

Contract Employees
Contract associates are covered by the terms of the contract and may have different benefit terms. Refer to the appropriate contract for details.
