School Closings 1. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies all employees designated as 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 (twelve month) employees shall be expected to work their regular shift.
2. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies, employees who are less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 (12-month) employees generally do not report to work and shall not be paid for the day if not worked. For said employees, pay for up to a maximum of 6 days may be received if an employee converts a sick day that was earned, prior to such a day that was cancelled, pursuant to Article 18, E. 3. If the days are required by law to be made up for State Aid or contracted obligations, such employees not working shall be scheduled to work on and be paid for the days later designated by the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board and in respect to other collective bargaining agreements, as make-up hours. If the canceled days do not count as days of instruction under the State Aid Act and the Board determines the canceled days should be rescheduled, such employees who did not work the canceled days shall be scheduled to work days designated on the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board, and be paid for the rescheduled days after working said days. Any employee who has begun work prior to the school closing will be paid the employee’s hourly rate for time worked prior to cancellation. In no event will employees receive less than two hours pay if they report for work prior to cancellation. As an exception to the above-referenced practice, less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees working more than the teacher work year may voluntarily work when regularly scheduled student attendance days needing to be made up are canceled due to weather or other emergencies pursuant to the stipulations that follow:
a. The supervisor, after receiving approval of the Human Resources department administration, may approve of the employee working the day;
b. The day worked shall not result in any future non-workday that is a student attendance day;
c. Approval of such a workday shall not result in or relate to any request for additional workdays later in the school year. This exception does not apply for any employee working the teacher work year (or less) or to 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees.
3. On days when students are released early for weather or other emergencies in any or all buildings, employees shall work their regular shift unless hazardous or unhealthful conditions, as determined by the Superintendent, exist. In such circumstances employees shall be released when notified by the Superintendent.
4. Whenever the administration delays the start of classes at some or all of the buildings, employees shall be expected to work their regular hours. Should it be necessary to make up the day, employees will be paid for the additional day.
5. If an employee is unable to report to work due to inclement weather, she/he may use any emergency day or vacation leave time provided to her/him under the contract.
6. When conditions develop during a day requiring the early closing of the offices, all office employees will be paid for a regular workday for their category.
7. If school is canceled and the employee has been approved for a paid leave day, paid leave time will not be deducted. An employee on unpaid leave of any sort shall not be paid for any day that is canceled due to weather or other emergency as referenced in “2”.

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that any Company or any Purchased Subsidiary to be transferred to Buyer at the Second Closing owns or has the right to use (or owns one or more Purchased Subsidiaries that collectively own or have the right to use) any Encumbered Property that will not be transferred to Buyer at the Second Closing pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Parties shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary prior to the Second Closing to (i) cause such Company or Purchased Subsidiary to transfer the applicable Encumbered Property to another Company or Purchased Subsidiary, which other Company or Purchased Subsidiary will be transferred to Buyer at the Third Closing or (ii) amend this Agreement to provide for additional sellers hereto, such that any such Company or Purchased Subsidiary may transfer applicable Subsidiary Equity Interests to Buyer directly. The Second Closing shall be deemed to have been consummated at 12:01 a.m. on the Second Closing Date. Neither Party will need to be present at the Second Closing, it being anticipated that the Parties will deliver the Second Closing documents and deliverables in escrow to the Deposit Escrow Agent prior to the Second Closing Date.

Neither Party will need to be present at the Third Closing, it being anticipated that the Parties will deliver the Third Closing documents and deliverables in escrow to the Deposit Escrow Agent prior to the Third Closing Date.
(d) In the event that all of the conditions to the Third Closing set forth in Article VII have been satisfied or waived as of the Outside Date, other than any of the Lender Condition, the Tenant Condition and/or the JV Condition as a result of the failure to obtain any Required Lender Consent or Required Tenant Waiver or the failure to effect any JV Redemption, respectively, then the Parties shall cause the Third Closing to occur on the Outside Date but shall exclude from such Third Closing (i) any Lender Encumbered Property (or the Company or Purchased Subsidiary that owns or has the right to use such Lender Encumbered Property, so long as such Company or Purchased Subsidiary does not own or have the right to use any other Real Property) which is subject to any unobtained Required Lender Consent. (ii) any Tenant Encumbered Property (or the Company or Purchased Subsidiary that owns or has the right to use such Tenant Encumbered Property, so long as such Company or Purchased Subsidiary does not own or have the right to use any other Real Property) which is subject to any unobtained Required Tenant Waiver and (iii) any JV Encumbered Property (or the Company or Purchased Subsidiary that owns or has the right to use such JV Encumbered Property, so long as such Company or Purchased Subsidiary does not own or have the right to use any other Real Property) with respect to which a JV Redemption has not been effected (any of the Lender Encumbered Properties, Tenant Encumbered Properties or JV Encumbered Properties (or any of the Companies or Purchased Subsidiaries that owns or has the right to use any of the foregoing) which is excluded from the Third Closing pursuant to the foregoing clauses, (i), (ii) or (iii), together with any Real Property excluded from any Closing pursuant to Sections 2.9(c) or 2.11, a “Withheld Property”), in which event, (A) any such Withheld Property shall not be transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (B) Buyer and Seller shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement relating to any such Withheld Property and (C) any such Withheld Property shall cease to be considered “Real Property”, a “Company” or a “Purchased Subsidiary” hereunder, as applicable.
(e) The Parties hereby acknowledge that each Lender that provides a Lender Consent may do so upon such terms and conditions (including with respect to timing and schedule), as are agreed upon between the Parties and such Lender. Notwithstanding any difference between the provisions of this Agreement and the timing and scheduling terms and conditions of any Lender Consent, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other and to use Reasonable Efforts to cause the Closings to occur on the Closing Dates provided for in this Section 2.5 and otherwise as expeditiously as practicable. In the event that any Lender requires that a Closing with respect to the applicable Lender Encumbered Property take place on a date other than the Closing Dates provided for in this Section 2.5, the Parties will agree to hold a Closing on such date and all applicable provisions of this Agreement shall apply to such Closing mutatis mutandis.
(f) The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are for the purchase and sale of the Companies and the Purchased Subsidiaries and that it is intended that such entities do not own or lease (directly or indirectly) any real property other than the Real Property and certain assets related thereto. If the Parties determine at any time prior to the applicable Closing that any Company or Purchased Subsidiary owns or has the right to use any asset or property (including any real property) other than the Real Property and assets related specifically to same (including any Defected Property that is intended to be excluded from this Agreement), the Parties shall take such actions as are necessary (including by amending, modifying or supplementing this Agreement, the annexes or exhibits hereto or the Disclosure Schedule, whether to provide for additional Sellers, Companies or Purchased Subsidiaries hereto, or otherwise) in order to provide that the Companies and Purchased Subsidiaries conveyed to Buyer at the Closings only own or have the right to use the Real Property that are to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement and are required to meet the obligations of such Company or Purchased Subsidiary as landlord under the applicable Property Lease and no other asset or property (including any real property). In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including anything in Section 6.1), but subject to the prior written approval of Buyer (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), prior to the applicable Closing (it being agreed and understood that Buyer hereby consents to Seller taking the actions set forth in Section 2.5(f) of the Disclosure Schedule), Seller, the Companies and the Purchased Subsidiaries shall be expressly permitted to take such actions as are necessary and effect such internal restructurings as are necessary (including by distributing, dividending, assigning or otherwise transferring any assets, property (including real property), Persons or equity interests) in order to ensure that the only assets owned by the Companies and the Purchased Subsidiaries are the Real Property that are to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement and the Persons (or the equity interests in such Persons) that own or have the right to use such Real Property.

If the School Board does not require make-up time, there shall be no reduction in pay for the day that school was closed.
