PERSONNEL REDUCTION Section 1 In the event of layoffs in connection with decreasing the work force, and the recall to work of people so laid off, the following consideration shall govern. Skill and ability as determined by reference to the employee's work record, and length of service shall be the determining factors; however, employees shall be laid off by category of seniority. There shall be three (3) seniority categories: probationary, 1 yearto 5 years seniority, and over 5 years seniority. In case of layoff, all employees in the lowest seniority category shall be laid off before proceeding to layoff of anyone in a more senior category. Where skill and ability within a category are approximately equal, length of service shall govern. Employees having the same seniority within a category shall draw lots to determine the order of layoff. No new employees shall be hired until all laid off employees have been given the opportunity to be re-hired. Employees who have been laid off will be offered re-employment in the inverse order of layoffs when they are needed again, provided they are physically qualified and possess sufficient training and experience to perform the duties of the available work. The City shall give laid off employees ten (10) days notice of its intention to rehire. The employees shall within ten (10) days period notify the City of their intention to, or not to, return to the employ of the City, and shall report to work no later than fifteen (15) days from receipt of said notice to rehire. If an employee fails to notify the City within the ten (10) calendar day period of his/her intentions to return to work, or fails to report to work within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of notice, he/she shall be considered permanently severed from the employ of the City. At the time of a layoff the City shall provide all laid off employees with a complete physical examination. At the time of rehire, the City may require a physical examination prior to the employee's return to duty, and it is expressly understood that any employee found physically unfit to return to duty may be refused re-employment and removed from the employment list. The City shall not be obligated to rehire laid off employees who have been laid off for five (5) or more consecutive calendar years, beginning from the date of layoff.
Section 2 Employees laid off under provisions of this ARTICLE, who at the time of layoff had existing and established work-connected injuries, may not be denied re-employment during the five (5) year call-back period because of these work-connected injuries as existing and established prior to the layoff.
Section 3 Nothing in this ARTICLE shall limit the ability of the City to provide for a compliment of officers and departmental personnel deemed in the judgment of the Chief necessary for the proper administration of the affairs of the Department and as provided for within the Departmental budget.

Reduction of Payments Any reduction under Subsection (b) above shall be applied first to Payments that constitute “deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder). If there is more than one such Payment, then such reduction shall be applied on a pro rata basis to all such Payments. Subject to the foregoing rules, the Employee may elect, in the Employee’s sole discretion, which and how much of the Payments shall be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such election the aggregate present value of the Payments equals the Reduced Amount) and shall advise the Company in writing of the Employee’s election within 10 business days of receipt of notice. If no such election is made by the Employee within such 10-day period, then the Company may elect which and how much of the Payments shall be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such election the aggregate present value of the Payments equals the Reduced Amount) and shall notify the Employee promptly of such election. For purposes of this Section 3, a present value shall be determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 3 shall be binding upon the Company and the Employee and shall be made within 10 business days of the date when a Payment becomes payable or transferable. As promptly as practicable following such determination and the elections hereunder, the Company shall pay or transfer to or for the benefit of the Employee such amounts as are then due to the Employee and shall promptly pay or transfer to or for the benefit of the Employee in the future such amounts as become due to the Employee.
Accumulation of Vacation Leave Credits An employee shall earn vacation leave credits for each calendar month during which the employee receives pay for at least ten (10) days at the following rate:
Reduction A. No regular employee or limited-term regular employee shall be reduced to a position in a lower class for reasons of unsatisfactory performance or physical disability except for reasonable cause.
B. A written notice of such reduction stating specifically the cause of the reduction shall be given to the employee.
C. In accordance with the provisions of Article X, an appeal of reduction for reasons of unsatisfactory performance or physical disability shall be initiated at the Step 2 of the grievance/appeal procedure; except for reductions imposed by the County Executive Officer which may be referred directly to arbitration.
Interruption of Vacation An employee shall be permitted to interrupt or terminate vacation leave in order to begin another type of paid leave provided the employee supplies notice and supporting information regarding the basis for such interruption or termination to the District.

The Company shall provide Parent evidence that such resolutions to terminate the 401(k) plan(s) of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been adopted by the Company Board or the board of directors of its Subsidiaries, as applicable. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Parent. The Company shall also take such other actions in furtherance of terminating any such 401(k) plans as Parent may reasonably request. Immediately prior to the 401(k) Termination Date, the Company will make (or cause to be made) all necessary payments to fund the contributions (i) necessary or required to maintain the tax-qualified status of any such 401(k) plan and (ii) for elective deferrals made pursuant to any such 401(k) plan for the period prior to its termination. As promptly as practicable after the 401(k) Termination Date and subject to the terms of Parent’s 401(k) plan, Parent shall permit all employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who were eligible to participate in any such 401(k) plan immediately prior to the 401(k) Termination Date to participate in Parent’s 401(k) plan, and to the extent permitted by the terms of the applicable plan, shall permit each continuing employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries to elect to roll over his or her account balance from any terminated 401(k) plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to Parent’s 401(k) plan.
