Change Process Citizens may require changes altering, adding to, or deducting from the Services (each, a “Change”), provided that: (a) such Change is within the general scope of this Agreement; and, (b) Citizens will make an equitable adjustment in Vendor’s compensation or delivery date if a Change materially affects the cost or time of performance of the Services. Such equitable adjustments require the written consent of Vendor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Parties will cooperate in good faith to determine the scope and nature of a Change, the availability of Vendor Staff, the expertise and resources to provide such Change, and the time period in which such Change will be implemented.
Exchange Procedure With respect to the Company Common Stock of the Principal Company Stockholders and the Company Preferred Stock of the holders thereof, not less than two business days prior to the Closing Date the PCS Paying Agent shall mail or otherwise deliver to each Principal Company Stockholder or holder of Company Preferred Stock that is a holder of record of certificate or certificates (the “Certificates”) that immediately prior to the Effective Time will represent outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock whose shares will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the PCS Paying Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates at the Effective Time in exchange for Merger Consideration. With respect to the other Company Common Stock, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Other Paying Agent shall mail to each other holder of record of a Certificate or Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock whose shares were converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancelation to the applicable Paying Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Paying Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the amount of cash into which the shares of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate shall have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, payment may be made to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the amount of cash, without interest, into which the shares of Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock theretofore represented by such Certificate have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01. No interest shall be paid or accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Certificate.

The third member shall be selected by the first two (2) members as follows: The parties shall notify the State Superintendent of Public Instruction that a Fact finder is needed and request a list of potential fact finders from the State Superintendent. If no name on the list is agreeable to both parties, a coin toss shall occur with the party winning the toss having the right to strike a name from the list until only one name remains. The person whose name remains on the list will serve as the chairperson of the fact finding committee.

The parties shall meet within seven (7) days of the request, unless both parties deem it unnecessary. At such meeting, the representatives shall exchange written statements expressing each party's rationale for rejecting each recommendation found unacceptable and shall attempt to clarify any remaining differences. The representatives shall then resume good faith effort to resolve the remaining differences; provided, after fourteen (14) days after the exchange of the written statements, either party may discontinue such effort.

(ii) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser, an Assignment or Assignments, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser (in which case the Registered Holder will be deemed to have complied with Section 5); and
(iii) Unless the Cashless Exercise Option provided under Section 1.6 below is utilized, a wire transfer or check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock being purchased upon such exercise.
(b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the transfer agent of its securities to issue and deliver to the Purchaser certificates for shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant within ten business days after the Exercise Date, but in no event shall such certificates be issued and delivered later than 15 business days after the Exercise Date.
(c) In the event that this Warrant shall be exercised for less than all of the Warrant Stock, the Company shall, within ten business days after the Exercise Date, execute and deliver to the Purchaser a replacement Warrant of like tenor for the balance of the Warrant Stock that may be purchased hereunder.
(d) The Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at 5:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the Exercise Date, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Warrant Stock at such time on the Exercise Date.
(e) The issuance of certificates for shares of Warrant Stock upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder or the Purchaser for any issuance tax with respect thereto or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Warrant Stock; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any income tax to which the Registered Holder or the Purchaser may be subject in connection with the issuance of this Warrant or any Warrant Stock. Each share of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be, upon payment of the Exercise Price, or utilization of the Cashless Exercise Option, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens, restrictions, encumbrances, and charges.
(f) Each party shall assist and cooperate with each other party with respect to any required governmental filings or governmental approvals prior to, or in connection with, any exercise of this Warrant.
Exercise Procedures The form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to exercise the Warrants. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers to exercise their Warrants. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required in order to exercise the Warrants. The Company shall honor exercises of the Warrants and shall deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.
Exclusive Procedure The grievance procedure set out above shall be exclusive and shall replace any other grievance procedure for adjustment of any disputes arising from the application and interpretation of this Agreement.
Discipline Procedure 1. Disciplinary action may be imposed for violation of written rules and regulations as set forth by the Board, incompetence, inefficiency, dishonesty, drunkenness, immoral conduct, insubordination, discourteous treatment of the public, neglect of duty, misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, any other failure of good behavior, or conviction of a felony.
2. No employee shall be disciplined without first having had the opportunity for a hearing, if the employee so requests, with an OAPSE representative of his/her choice present. The employee shall be given a written statement containing the charges and the time and place of the hearing. The written statement shall notify the employee of his/her rights to OAPSE representation. The employee must be given the opportunity to sign the statement acknowledging receipt of the statement and date received. Under emergency conditions as determined by the supervisor (including, but not limited to, health and/or safety of the employee or other employees; blatant insubordination; or refusal to work), the supervisor may immediately suspend an employee without pay for a period of up to three (3) work days without the formal hearing described above. An opportunity for a formal hearing with the supervisor must be provided within the suspension period. Failure to provide an opportunity for a hearing during the suspension period shall preclude the right of further discipline for the offense causing the initial suspension. Emergency suspensions will not be subject to Section 6 of this Article.
3. Disciplinary action of less than discharge should generally be progressive and corrective in nature.
A. Disciplinary actions shall be grievable. This Section shall supersede existing state law governing termination of employment (O.R.C. 3319.081).
B. In determining progressive and corrective action, just cause shall be construed and limited to the nature and seriousness of the offense, the effect the alleged conduct has on the Board’s operation, the discipline or lack thereof used in other similar situations known to the Board, and the appropriateness of the proposed penalty in view of the record and length of service of the charged employee. The enumeration of these factors is not intended to preclude either the exercise of good and sound business judgment or to minimize the importance of an employee’s property interest in his job.

Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent together with such Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the portion of the Merger Consideration or Warrant Payment (as applicable) which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the shares of Company Capital Stock or Warrants formerly represented by such Certificate (and the right to receive payments from the General Escrow Account and the Equityholders’ Representative Escrow Account in accordance with the Escrow Agreement and Section 3.3), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Following any receipt of an Excess Payment, the Exchange Agent will deliver to each holder of surrendered Certificates, such holder’s pro rata portion thereof; provided, that if the Exchange Agent receives an Excess Payment prior to receipt of surrendered Certificates, then payment of the portion thereof applicable to such unsurrendered Certificates shall be made at the same time as payment of the balance of the applicable Merger Consideration or Warrant Payment (as applicable) upon surrender thereof. No interest will be paid or accrued on any Merger Consideration or Warrant Payment (as applicable) payable to holders of Certificates.

Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.1, each Certificate shall, subject to Section 3.2, be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the portion of the Merger Consideration or Warrant Payment (as applicable) payable in respect of such Certificate as set forth in Section 2.6.
