Step Placement When a reclassification action occurs, the justification for the action taken shall be provided in writing to the affected employee or employees. When an employee is reclassified to a position having a higher maximum regular base hourly rate, the employee’s pay shall be increased to the pay step amount which is at least, and closest to, 3 percent higher than the pay they received prior to the reclassification. When an employee is reclassified to a position having the same maximum regular base hourly rate, the employee’s pay step amount shall remain the same. When an employee is reclassified to a position having a lower maximum regular base hourly rate, the employee’s pay shall be decreased to the pay step amount closest to their present regular base hourly rate. However, when the employee’s regular base hourly rate of pay, prior to the reclassification, is greater than step 9 of the newly assigned pay grade, the employee’s regular base hourly rate of pay shall be frozen as of the date of the reclassification. The employee’s regular base hourly rate shall remain frozen until such time as step 9 of the pay grade assigned to the employee’s classification is equal to or greater than the employee’s frozen rate of pay. When that occurs, the employee shall be placed into step 9 of the new pay grade assigned to the employee’s classification. When a reclassification occurs in a multi-incumbent classification and incumbents compete for the classification, the salary placement shall be administered in the same manner as a promotion in Article 13, Section 3.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that the Agent will be successful in selling Placement Shares, (ii) the Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Placement Shares as required under this Agreement and (iii) the Agent shall be under no obligation to purchase Placement Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by the Agent and the Company.

Delivery of Placement Securities On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Securities being sold by crediting the Sales Agent’s or its designee’s account (provided the Sales Agent shall have given the Company written notice of such designee prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, the Sales Agent will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Securities on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 10(a) and Section 11 hereof, it will (i) hold the Sales Agent harmless against any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense whatsoever (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) and (ii) pay to the Sales Agent any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.
Settlement of Placement Shares Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the second (2nd) Trading Day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The Agent shall notify the Company of each sale of Placement Shares no later than the opening of the Trading Day immediately following the Trading Day on which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder.
