Staff Reduction 11.1 When a reduction within the District is needed, the affected employee(s) and the Association will be notified as to which position(s) will be eliminated or reduced at least fourteen (14) calendar days prior to the reduction. 11.2 When a reduction within the District is needed, the Board will determine which position(s) will be eliminated or reduced. An employee whose position will be eliminated or reduced shall have the right to displace an employee in his/her present job classification or another job classification in accordance with the following: a. The laid off or reduced employee has greater seniority than the employee to be displaced. b. The laid off or reduced employee had an equal or greater number of hours in his/her regular schedule than the employee to be displaced. c. The laid off or reduced employee presently has the necessary qualifications to perform the work. d. The laid off or reduced employee elects to exercise his/her displacement rights within five (5) working days of notification of his/her layoff or reduction. An employee displaced under this section is also entitled to displacement rights under this section. 11.3 When filling vacancies which occur after a reduction in staff, laid off bargaining unit members who have been released less than two (2) years, shall be recalled in the order of seniority, with the most senior member being recalled first to any position for which he/she is qualified. Effective July 1, 1991, newly hired bargaining unit members shall be subject to recall for two (2) years. If the employee fails to report to work within ten (10) working days from the receipt of the recall notice via certified or registered mail, that person shall be considered a voluntary terminated employee. However, if an employee is recalled to a position of lesser hours, he/she shall have the option to refuse the position and shall not be removed from the recall list as a result of this action. 11.4 An employee may elect to accept layoff rather than exercise his/her bumping rights. 11.5 For the purposes of this agreement, qualified shall be defined as capable of skillfully and efficiently performing the job duties as summarized in the job description in a competent manner with minimal instruction. The District reserves the right to test employees as needed. Qualified includes the following: a. Any licenses, certification and training necessary to perform the job, and b. demonstrated skills and merits. The most senior qualified employee shall be selected, excepting that a less senior candidate may be selected if he/she has greatly superior training and skills.

Certain Reductions Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall reduce Executive’s severance benefits under this Agreement, in whole or in part, by any other severance benefits, pay in lieu of notice, or other similar benefits payable to Executive by the Company in connection with Executive’s termination, including but not limited to payments or benefits pursuant to (a) any applicable legal requirement, including, without limitation, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, or (b) any other Company agreement, arrangement, policy or practice relating to Executive’s termination of employment with the Company. The benefits provided under this Agreement are intended to satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, any and all statutory obligations that may arise out of Executive’s termination of employment. Such reductions shall be applied on a retroactive basis, with severance benefits paid first in time being recharacterized as payments pursuant to the Company’s statutory obligation.

The determination regarding a layoff of regular full-time employees shall be based on the following criteria applied to the affected division(s): A. Seniority within the classification. B. In the event two (2) or more employees have the same classification seniority, District seniority will be used. C. In the event two or more employees have the same seniority, in the classification and within the district, active discipline history will be considered. In the event no discipline is documented, the last four digits of the social security number will be used retaining the employee with the highest number. D. An employee subject to layoff can move back to the most recently held vacant position within the classification series within the division. If the position is held by another employee, the person with the most classification series seniority retains the position. E. An employee subject to layoff can move back to the most recently held vacant position. If the position is held by another employee, the person with the most District seniority retains the position.

The Union and the District will each select two (2) representatives who in turn will select a fifth member who shall serve as the chairperson of the committee. B. Employees subject to reduction in force may, within five (5) working days of receipt of notice, request an appeal in writing to the Union and/or HR Director to review the facts related to their individual concerns related to the process. C. Within ten (10) working days of receipt of the appeal, the committee shall review, investigate, and receive statements from the appealing employee, the division director, and/or any other relevant persons as determined by the committee. The committee will serve as an advisory committee to the Chief Health Officer and recommend action as they may agree upon. The committee shall submit a statement of findings to the Chief Health Officer within ten (10) working days of the review. The committee shall also state a recommended action upon a majority vote of the committee members. D. The Chief Health Officer shall review the committee's report and issue a decision that either accepts or rejects the recommendation or, at his/her discretion, directs the implementation of some other action. The decision of the Chief Health Officer is final and binding.

Voluntary Commitment Reductions (i) Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof to Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount. (ii) Borrower’s notice to Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof; provided that a notice of termination or partial reduction may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or upon the closing of an acquisition transaction, in which case such notice of termination or partial reduction may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied.
Voluntary Reductions The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or permanently reduce the unused portion of the Revolving Committed Amount at any time or from time to time upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall notify the Lenders thereof as soon as practicable) of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction which shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent; provided that no such reduction or termination shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto, and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans made on the effective date thereof, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations would exceed the Revolving Committed Amount then in effect.
Royalty Reductions (a) In the event that, during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product and a country, (i) at the time of the First Commercial Sale of such Licensed Product in such country there is no Valid Claim that is infringed by the sale of such Licensed Product in such country for so long as there is no such Valid Claim, or (ii) if any such Valid Claim did exist as of such First Commercial Sale or thereafter but such Valid Claim has expired or otherwise no longer meets the definition of Valid Claim, then for any royalty payments made during the period when the condition set forth in (i) or (ii) exists with respect to such Licensed Product and such country, the royalties payable with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product sold by Jazz, its Affiliates and its Sublicensees in such country shall be reduced by [***] of the royalties otherwise owed to Codiak pursuant to this Section 8.10. In addition, if in any country in the Territory during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product for such country, a Biosimilar/Generic Product is sold in such country and, according to a reasonable information source or reasonable proxy mutually agreed by the Parties, the units sold of all Biosimilar/Generic Products, collectively, exceed [***] or more of the unit sales of such Licensed Product in such country, then thereafter, the royalties payable with respect to Net Sales of such Licensed Product sold by Jazz, its Affiliates and its Sublicensees in such country shall be reduced by [***] of the royalties otherwise owed to Codiak pursuant to this Section 8.10. The reductions provided for by this Section 8.10.2(a) shall be calculated using the methodology outlined in Exhibit D. (b) Codiak will be responsible for all payment obligations owing to Third Parties under licenses to which Codiak or any of its Affiliates is a party as of the Effective Date or thereafter as set forth in Section 3.3. Other than any licenses or similar rights obtained by Jazz from a Third Party as contemplated in Section 3.3.5(b), if (i) the Exploitation of Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products as contemplated hereunder, including, for clarity, the use of any Agreed Included Codiak Platform Addition in connection with such Exploitation, would infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property that is owned or Controlled by a Third Party, and (ii) Jazz decides to obtain a license or other similar rights from such Third Party in order to avoid such infringement or misappropriation, then [***] of any payments made to such Third Party in connection with obtaining and maintaining such licenses may be deducted from the royalties otherwise payable by Jazz to Codiak hereunder; provided that in no event shall the aggregate royalties payable by Jazz to Codiak for any Calendar Quarter be reduced as a result of such deduction by more than [***] of the royalty that would otherwise have been due under Section 8.10.1, as such royalty amount is determined prior to the application of any reductions provided in this Section 8.10.2. If Jazz is unable to deduct the full amount of the payments to Third Parties contemplated by this Section 8.10.2(b) for a Calendar Quarter, Jazz will be entitled to carry forward such amounts and deduct them in future Calendar Quarters until such time as Jazz has been able to fully deduct such amounts from the royalties payable under Section 8.10.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of payments due to a Third Party on sales in the Shared Territory for a Licensed Product for which Codiak exercised its Development and Commercialization Option, no deduction under this Section 8.10.2(b) shall be permitted but Jazz may include such payments in Allowable Expenses.
