Entitlement for Less Than Two-Month Qualified Service Increments. In determining either initial Layoff Benefit entitlement (under section 1 of this Article IV) or a regeneration of such entitlement following a return to work from Layoff (under section 3 of this Article IV), if the balance of any Service remaining after the last two (2) full months' increment equals to at least a full month, the P.S.O. will be entitled to the applicable one (1) or two (2) additional semi-monthly periods of Layoff Benefits, depending upon the P.S.O.'s years of Service, as provided under section 1 of this Article IV. If any such balance is less than a full month, no additional Layoff Benefits entitlement will be granted.
