| Have you already looked at your Uniform Pension Statement (UPO)? |
| The Uniform Pension Statements were delivered last week, by post or digitally in MyStaplesPension. Your UPO shows you how much pension you've accrued with Staples Pension Fund. |
Have you already opened and read your UPO? If not, do so soon. Then you'll know what the situation is with your pension and you can take action if required.
Note: if you no longer work at Staples, you'll receive a UPO once every five years. The next one is scheduled for 2022. You will not receive a UPO this year. |

| Financial position still good |
| Despite the disquiet in the financial markets in recent months, which led to a slight drop in results, the pension fund's policy coverage ratio remained stable. The policy coverage ratio at the end of March was 122.8%, the same as the previous month. |
The policy coverage ratio is well above the required coverage ratio of 116.3%. The policy coverage ratio is the average of the coverage ratios of the past twelve months.

| MyStaplesPension has been revamped |
| MyStaplesPension was given a new look in early April. It's not just the appearance that has changed; now it's also easier for you to see your pension details on your tablet or telephone. |
Unless you've indicated that you'd rather receive mail in your letter box, you now only receive certain post digitally from the pension fund, such as your pension specification or the UPS.
If digital post is ready in MyStaplesPension, you'll receive an e-mail notification about it. To enable that you'll have to register your e-mail address in MyStaplesPension.
Didn't you register your e-mail address yet?
Log into MyStaplesPension now using your DigiD. Once you're logged in we'll ask you to register an e-mail address. Then you'll receive a verification e-mail with which you can confirm your e-mail address. |

| About Pensioenfonds Staples |
|
Staples Pension Fund administers the pension scheme for the employees of Staples and its affiliated companies that were participating in the fund’s pension scheme before 1 January 2015. The Fund aims to be a sustainable and reliable pension fund for all stakeholders and to this end the Board has adopted a sound financial policy and checks that agreements are compliant with legislation. The pension scheme does not just provide for your old age; if something happens to you, the pension scheme provides for your partner as well. If you become incapacitated for work your pension scheme has a provision allowing you, under certain circumstances, to continue accruing pension entitlements.
