Agreement shall be applied to all employees without regard to race,
color, sex, age, religious creed, national origin, handicap or Vietnam

ARTICLE II

UNION RECOGNITION AND SECURITY

(a) The Company recognizes the Union as the exclusive representative for all
hourly rated production, maintenance, quarry and laboratory employees,
excluding all office employees and all supervisors as defined by the
National Labor Relations Act, as amended, for the purposes of collective
bargaining in respect to wages, hours and working conditions at its
plants located at:

Clinchfield, Georgia, Local D23

(b) It shall be a condition of employment that all employees of the Company
covered by this Agreement who are members of the Union in good standing
on the execution date of this Agreement shall remain members in good
standing and those who are not members in good standing on the execution
date of this Agreement shall on the thirtieth (30th) day following the
execution date of this Agreement become and remain members in good
standing in the Union. It shall also be a condition of employment that
all employees covered by this Agreement and hired on or after its
execution date shall on the thirtieth (30th) day following the beginning
of such employment become and remain members in good standing in the
Union. (Because of State law, the above does not apply to Local D23 at
Clinchfield, Georgia).

(c) The term "employee" as used in this Agreement refers only to an employee
whose job is set forth in the Job Classification list attached to each
Local Agreement or any subsequent job added to the list during the term
of the Agreement.

(d) The Company will deduct from the monthly earnings of any of its employees
his Initiation Fee and Union Membership Dues and will pay the same to the
party to whom such employee directs the Company in writing. Each such
employee desiring such deduction to be made from his earnings must
present to the Company his signed order, which shall be substantially as
follows:

"I hereby authorize and direct the Medusa Cement Company to deduct and
pay from my earnings accumulated to my credit my Initiation Fee and Union
Membership Dues, and pay same to ............ I further agree to hold the

This authorization may be canceled by the Union member on any anniversary
date of this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the
Company and the Union.

(e) The union shall furnish to the Plant Manager a written list of the names
of employees who will serve on the committee. The number of employees on
the committee shall be defined by each Local Agreement. If a vacancy
occurs on the committee, the Plant Manager, shall be informed by letter
of the name of the new member before a meeting is held. No other members
of the Union who are employees at the Plants are eligible to attend these
meetings unless previously agreed to by the parties hereto.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Article II (b) above, any employee, who
is a member of and adheres to established and traditional tenets or
teachings of a bona fide religion, body or sect which has historically
held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting labor
organizations shall not be required to join or financially support the
Union as a condition of employment; provided, however, that each such
employee shall, as a condition of his or her employment, in lieu of the
payment of periodic dues and initiation fees to the Union, pay sums equal
to such dues and initiation fees to any one of the following nonreligious
charitable funds, which are exempt from taxation under Section 501(C)(3)
of the Internal Revenue Code:

1. City of Hope
2. American Cancer Society
3. American Heart Association
4. National Multiple Sclerosis Society
5. American Red Cross

It is expressly understood that any such employee holding conscientious
objections and choosing not to join or financially support the Union, who
requests the Union to use the grievance arbitration procedure on the
employee's behalf, shall be required to pay to the Union the reasonable
cost of processing any grievance on his or her behalf including
reasonable cost of arbitration if any. (Because of State law this does
not apply to Local D23 at Clinchfield, Georgia.)

(g) Upon receipt from an employee authorizing payroll deduction and
specifying the amount to be deducted, the Company will deduct voluntary
contribution to the City of Hope. All amounts so deducted shall be
remitted by the Company to the City of Hope.

The Company shall be held harmless from any claim, demand or action
arising out of such deductions.

Employees contributing to the City of Hope cannot discontinue or change
such contributions for one year.

ARTICLE III

SENIORITY

(a) The seniority unit shall be plant-wide.

(b) Seniority is continuous service which shall be calculated from date of
first employment or re-employment following a break in continuous
service, whichever occurs later.

When two or more employees are hired on the same day, the employee with
the lowest last four (4) digits in their social security number shall be
senior to the employee with the highest last four (4) digits. This
paragraph is effective May 10, 1978.

(c) New employees and those hired after a break in continuity of service will
be regarded as probationary employees for the first sixty (60) days of
work and will receive no continuous service credit during such period.
Probationary employees may file and process grievances under this
Agreement, but may be laid off or discharged as exclusively determined by
the Company. Probationary employees who continue in the service of the
Company subsequent to the first sixty (60) days of work shall receive
full continuous service credit from date of the most recent hiring.
(PROBATIONARY PERIOD MAY BE INCREASED THIRTY (30) ADDITIONAL WORK DAYS
SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY THE UNION.)

(d) An employee covered by this Agreement shall lose his entire seniority if:

(1) He voluntarily quits;

(2) He is discharged for cause and not rehired within six (6) months
or reinstated;

(3) An employee's seniority shall be broken and his employment
terminated effective on date of his acceptance of Termination
benefits under the provisions of the Supplemental Unemployment
Benefit Plan Agreement;

(4) The employee is on layoff or disability for a period of three
years or 50% of his seniority attained at the start of such
absence, whichever is less.

(e) A leave of absence for the purpose of accepting a position with The
Cement, Lime, Gypsum and Allied Workers Division at the Local, district,
or international level, or the AFL-CIO or any of its subordinate bodies,
shall be available to not more than three (3) employees from each plant
at any one time. Applications for such leave shall be submitted to the
Company in writing thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such
leave to permit proper provisions to be made to fill the job to be
vacated. Leaves of absence for this purpose shall be for an indefinite
period. During such leave, seniority shall accumulate. Group insurance
coverage shall be suspended after thirty (30) days of such leave.

All insurance coverages will be reinstated upon returning to work with
the Company. Upon returning to work such employee will be reinstated on
his former job, providing it is

6
7
still in existence; if not, he shall be eligible to apply for any job
within the bargaining unit by means of the existing bidding procedure or
by bumping.

(f) The Company shall attach to each Local Agreement a list of employee's
seniority dates in order of hiring and a list of the probationary
employees.

(g) Temporary summer employees may be employed by the Company from May 1st
through September 30th in order to facilitate filling of vacancies caused
by vacations during these months. Employment of summer employees will be
subject to the following conditions:

(1) No summer employee will be hired when any regular employee is on
layoff or drawing short workweek benefits.

(2) All summer employees will be required to join the Union under the
same terms and conditions as required in Article II, Sections (b)
and (d) of the Basic Agreement.

(3) All summer employees must sign an appropriate form which will
spell out the terms of their employment including but not limited
to an agreement to commence their employment on a specified date
and terminate their employment on a specified date. Such dates
must be in accordance with the time period specified in this
section.

(4) The term of employment will not be changed, altered or extended
unless mutually agreed to by both the Company and the Local Union
Committee.

(5) Summer employees shall not accumulate seniority nor be eligible to
bid on any new job or vacant job which may occur during their
terms of employment.

(6) A summer employee will not become eligible for a floating holiday
and will not have any vacation rights.

(7) Summer employees will not participate in the Company's pension,
S.U.B. and insurance programs.

The above will be in full force and effect, except that if any portion is
found to be contrary to any federal, state or local law, it shall be
changed to comply with said law.

ARTICLE IV

JOB SECURITY

(a) (1) Whenever the installation of mechanical equipment, change in
production methods, the installation of new or larger equipment,
the combining of jobs or the elimination of jobs, will have an
effect on the job status of one or more employees, the Company
will give the Union reasonable advance notice of same and, upon
request by the Union, will promptly meet with the Union to review
and explore the effects of such installation or installations or
change or changes upon the working force.

7
8
(2) Employees will not be terminated by the Company as the result of
mechanization, automation, change in production methods, the
installation of new or larger equipment, the combining of jobs or
the elimination of jobs.

(3) Whenever an employee is no longer needed on his regular job as a
result of circumstances described in (1) above, such employee may
apply for any job or jobs within the bargaining unit on which an
incumbent has less seniority, and for which he could reasonably be
expected to qualify within a ninety (90) day on-the-job training
period unless the employee applying for such job is disqualified
due to physical reasons.

The rate of pay for such employee shall not be less than
ninety-five percent (95%) of the rate for the regular job from
which he was displaced, irrespective of the rate of the job which
he applies for and obtains.

The ninety-five percent (95%) of rate protection shall apply for a
minimum period of one (1) year, or a period equal to one-third
(1/3) of an employee's seniority up to a maximum of two (2) years.
If the affected employee is tendered training for a job which he
could be reasonably expected to qualify for with a ninety (90) day
on-the-job training period and refuses, he will not be entitled to
any rate protection unless he has a bona fide reason for refusing.
If an employee on ninety-five (95%) percent rate protection
subsequently bids on and is awarded a lower rated job, he shall
lose his rate protection.

(4) Employees affected by the application of the foregoing procedures
shall have and may exercise the same rights for retention and
on-the-job training in accordance with their seniority status and
the ninety-five percent (95%) rate guarantee shall also be
applicable to them.

(5) Employees who do not apply for and/or obtain a job in accordance
with the provisions of (3), including employees displaced from
their jobs but whose seniority status does not permit them to
utilize job retention rights under the provisions of (3) or (4)
will be placed on layoff status with recall rights in line with
their seniority status for job vacancies which may thereafter
occur.

(6) The provisions of (3) of this Section do not apply to
displacements or layoffs resulting from production curtailments,
except that employees laid off and not recalled when production is
resumed following curtailment will be entitled to the same rights
as employees affected by the preceding (3).

(7) Should the Company permanently shutdown the present facilities
affording employment to the employees comprising the bargaining
unit (the present facilities shall be deemed to have been
permanently shutdown if all productive facilities are abandoned
even though the shipping facilities continue to operate), the
Company shall mail a notice informing each affected employee that
his employment with the Company has been terminated because of the
permanent shutdown. The notice shall be mailed at least ninety
(90) days prior to the shutdown to the employee's last address on
the Company's records. Each employee who is mailed said notice
shall have the following options:

8
9
A. An employee who is not eligible for a normal (excluding thirty
(30) year retirement pension) or late retirement pension may elect
to transfer to another operation of the Company covered by a
collective bargaining agreement with the Union in accordance with
paragraph 8 or paragraph 9.

Any transfer pursuant to paragraph 8 or 9 will occur not later
than three (3) years after the last day the employee worked. An
employee awaiting transfer shall be placed on layoff and shall
receive S.U.B. Layoff or reduced layoff benefit provided the
eligibility and other requirements of the S.U.B. Plan are met. An
employee may void

his election to transfer at any time during the three (3) year
period. If the employee is eligible for an immediate pension at
the time he voids his election to transfer, he shall retire,
effective the date he voids his election, under the pension plan
in effect at the time of the permanent shutdown. An employee may
also void his election in order to apply for S.U.B. Termination
benefits.

B. An employee who is eligible for an immediate pension at the date
of the permanent shutdown shall retire as of the effective date of
the permanent shutdown, except

1. An employee whose combined age and years of service equal 62
or more but less than 65 may elect layoff until his combined
age and years of service equal 65 at which time the employee
shall retire and receive a permanent shutdown pension. The
pension plan in effect at the time of the permanent shutdown
shall determine the retirement benefits payable to the
employee. An employee who elects layoff under these
conditions shall receive S.U.B. Layoff or reduced layoff
benefits provided the eligibility and other requirements of
the S.U.B. Plan are met.

2. An employee who is eligible for an immediate pension other
than a normal or late retirement pension and who elects to
transfer to another operation of the Company shall not
retire unless the transfer is not accomplished.

3. An employee shall not be required to retire under a
disability retirement pension earlier than he would
otherwise be required to retire if the Company had not
permanently shut down the facilities.

An employee who retires under the Pension Plan may also be
entitled to receive S.U.B. Terminations benefits in accordance
with the terms of the S.U.B. Plan.

C. The employee may elect S.U.B. Termination Benefits in accordance
with the terms of the S.U.B. Plan at any time within one (1) year
after notice of termination has been mailed to him.

An employee other than an employee who is eligible for an
immediate pension may elect layoff prior to submitting his
application for S.U.B. Termination Benefits and shall receive
S.U.B. Layoff or reduced layoff benefits provided the eligibility
and other requirements of the S.U.B. Plan are met.

9
10
D. If the facilities which have been permanently shut down are
reopened by the Company within three (3) years of the date of the
permanent shutdown, an employee who has retired under the Pension
Plan shall be eligible for recall in accordance with his seniority
status at the time of the permanent shutdown. An employee who has
elected S.U.B. Termination benefits shall also be eligible for
recall in accordance with his seniority status at the time of the
permanent shutdown. Any pensioner who has received S.U.B.
Termination benefits and accepts recall and any former employee
who has received S.U.B. Termination benefits and accepts recall
shall repay said Termination benefits to the S.U.B. Trust Fund or
to the Company, whichever was the source of the Termination
benefits, in accordance with the S.U.B. Plan Agreement. Any
employee who accepts recall shall have his previously accumulated
seniority rights, pension, S.U.B., insurance and vacation credits
as of the last day the employee worked or at the date of permanent
shutdown, whichever occurs later, reinstated on the date he
returns to work.

E. An employee who is not eligible for an immediate pension may elect
layoff and shall receive S.U.B. Layoff or reduced layoff benefits
provided the eligibility and other requirements of the S.U.B. Plan
are met.

The employment rights of any employee on layoff shall terminate
three (3) years after the last day the employee worked and the
employee's seniority shall be broken.

F. An employee's participation in the group insurance program shall
terminate effective the day following the last day the employee
worked and pending claims shall be processed in accordance with
the terms of the existing group insurance program. No employee
shall be eligible for holiday pay or vacation pay other than
vacation pay due after the last day the employee worked or the
date of the permanent shutdown, whichever occurs later. No
employee shall accumulate credited service under the pension plan
after the last day the employee worked or the date of the
permanent shutdown, whichever occurs later.

(8) In the event the Company constructs a new plant that will affect
the employment status of employees in the Company's plant or
plants comprising a bargaining unit, such employees shall be given
an opportunity to make application for employment in the new plant
before it starts operation, and such employees shall be given
preferential employment right for the highest rated job the
employee is capable of performing. Such an employee shall transfer
with him all of his previously accumulated pension, S.U.B.,
insurance and vacation credits. His seniority rights at the former
plant shall terminate upon his establishment of seniority rights
in the new plant.

(9) When an employee has been laid off or displaced because of
permanent changes in the working force or because of a plant
closing, he may make written application within fifteen (15) days
of layoff or displacement for employment in another plant of the
Company, and he shall be given preferential employment rights for
job openings at such other plant, providing such employee is
capable of performing the job that may be available at such other
plant of the Company. Any employee so transferring from one plant
to another of the Company shall retain his previously accumulated
pension, S.U.B., insurance and vacation credits. His seniority
rights at the former plant shall terminate upon his establishment
of seniority rights in the plant to which he transferred.

10
11
(10) Employees transferring from one plant to another as provided in
(a) (7), (8) and (9) of this Article will receive a moving expense
allowance. The Company will reimburse each employee for actual
moving expenses incurred to move furniture and other household
goods up to a maximum of $1,000 per employee.

(b) When a production curtailment or a plant shutdown causes a reduction in
personnel in a department or throughout the plant, a senior employee
whose regular job is not required shall have the option of accepting
available work for which he is qualified or accepting layoff. A Senior
employee who elects to accept available work shall be entitled to:

(1) Bump any junior employee whose job was previously held by the
senior employee on a permanent basis for a sufficient period of
time to demonstrate his ability to satisfactorily perform the job
as it is constituted at the time of the production curtailment or
plant shutdown. The senior employee must attempt to bump into a
job that he previously held in the reverse order of his
promotions. In other words, he must first attempt to bump into
the job he held immediately prior to his present job, except each
employee may select one job that he had previously held on a
permanent basis or is qualified to perform immediately, and for
purposes of this section only, consider it to be the job he held
immediately prior to his present job. Each employee may make such
selection and this selection shall be updated effective on May 1,
of each contract year at the employee's discretion.

If the above procedure would result in an employee becoming a part
of the labor crew, he may exercise his bumping rights set forth in
(2) prior to entering the labor crew.

(2) An employee can bump a junior employee on a plant-wide basis
except for any maintenance job, any laboratory job, or those in
the control room operator classification, provided he is qualified
to perform the job immediately.

Employees who hold utility or vacation-relief jobs where the
employee actually works on several different jobs on a scheduled
basis shall be considered as having held those classifications on
a permanent basis for purposes of this section (b).

Any junior employee who is displaced by a senior employee shall
have the same rights as the senior employee set forth herein.

After the bumping is completed, the Company has the right to
require a senior employee to perform available work during the
curtailment or shutdown if there is no junior employee with the
necessary qualifications to perform the work.

A plant shutdown is defined as a period during which none of the
clinker burning units are producing.

11
12
The wage rate paid during a production curtailment shall be the
wage rate of the job performed. An employee who works on two or
more jobs in one day shall be paid in accordance with Article V
(j) (2).

During periods of plant shutdowns when employees are needed for
maintenance, repairs or work on plant alterations, the wage rate
paid to employees who are retained for work during the first
forty-five (45) days of plant shutdown shall not be less than the
employee's regular straight time wage rate normally paid when the
plant is producing. After forty-five (45) days, the wage rate
paid shall be the wage rate of the job performed. An employee who
works on two or more jobs in one day shall be paid in accordance
with Article V (j) (2).

The ninety-five (95%) percent rate protection is not applicable to
any bumping under this procedure.

(c) When the Company determines that additional jobs are required during or
following a production curtailment or a plant shutdown in order to
maintain or increase the work force, the manner in which the reduction of
forces took place pursuant to Article IV, Section (b) will be reversed.

In the event that during a production curtailment or a plant shutdown an
employee bids for and is awarded another job, he shall lose all rights
pertaining to the job the employee previously held.

Sections (b) and (c) of Article IV shall not add to, subtract from, or
otherwise modify any maintenance training agreement by and between the
Company and the International and/or Local Unions negotiated before or
after the effective date of this Basic Agreement.

(d) The Company agrees to post a notice at least one week in advance of an
intended shutdown. Whenever a layoff is planned because of a change or
reduction in plant production requirements, the Company will, not less
than seven (7) calendar days prior to the effective date of the layoff,
post a bulletin stating the expected extent of such layoff, and the
expected effect on the work force. In the event the required notice is
not given in accordance with the above, the Company will pay the laid off
employee(s) the scheduled time lost at the applicable straight-time
hourly rate. The seven (7) calendar day period shall commence on the
completion of the third shift following the day in which the notice was
posted. The foregoing does not apply to disciplinary layoffs and layoffs
because of curtailment made necessary by disaster or emergency conditions
affecting the ability of the Company to physically operate the plant.

(e) Company personnel excluded from the bargaining unit shall not regularly
perform bargaining unit work except temporarily in an emergency; for
training or instruction purposes, for testing, diagnosis, analysis or
when necessary to prevent disruption of the flow of operations or when
necessary to meet the interest of efficient operations.

Should a Company person excluded from the bargaining unit violate this
commitment the Company will be required to pay to the effected worker or
workers double time (his or their) regular straight time hourly rate for
anytime worked by person not included in the bargaining unit, with a
minimum of four (4) hours pay. If there is no affected worker, the
penalty for such work shall be paid to the worker lowest in overtime in
the classification and/or department.

12
13
(f) Any employee who becomes incapacitated and on the basis of competent
medical opinion cannot perform the duties of his/her regular job may
exercise his/her plant seniority through the bumping procedure to move to
any position within the bargaining unit at the plant for which he/she
could qualify within a reasonable period of time but not to exceed 90
days. This in no way affects the bidding right of the employee.

(g) Any employee who is displaced by an incapacitated employee pursuant to
paragraph (f) of this section, may exercise his/her plant seniority to
bump into another position within the bargaining unit at the plant for
which he/she is qualified in the same manner as covered in the job
bidding procedure. The 95% rate protection is not applicable to bumping
under paragraphs (f) and (g).

(h) All vacancies and new jobs created shall be posted no later than the
eighth day following the date the vacancy occurred or the new job was
created. Said vacancies and new jobs shall be posted for seven (7) days
to allow any employee to make application in writing for such job. The
Company will consider every application in terms of:

(1) Seniority

(2) The applicant's skill and ability and physical fitness measured
against the requirements of the job.

Where two or more applicants' qualifications in (2) are relatively
the same, seniority shall govern.

If an employee proves unsatisfactory, he shall be reinstated to
his previous job. An employee who bids for and is awarded a job,
excluding any employee who is disqualified subsequent to the
award, may not bid any job in the same or lower bracket for six
(6) months from the date he was awarded his new job without the
consent of the Company; except that an employee may bid from an
operating job to a maintenance job or a laboratory job, from a
maintenance job to an operating job or a laboratory job, or from a
laboratory job to an operating job or a maintenance job even
though the employee is bidding a job in the same or lower bracket
within six (6) months.

This Section does not require the Company to award a job to any
applicant if no applicants are qualified to perform the work.

The Company has the right to assign any employee to fill a new job
or to fill a vacancy until the job has been awarded.

The Company will meet with the Local Union Committee to explain
its decision when the Company awards a job to a junior applicant.
Any senior applicant shall have the right to challenge the
Company's award by filing a grievance in a timely

13
14
manner. Any employee reinstated to his previous job shall have
the right to challenge his disqualification by filing a grievance
in a timely manner.

(3) Once a job has been awarded, the Company will make every effort to
place the successful bidder on the job as soon as possible, but
within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the job award.
Should the Company fail to place the successful applicant on the
job in the 30 day period, the applicant shall receive the rate of
pay for the new job commencing with the 31st day, until such time
as he is placed on the new job. At that time, he will be paid in
accordance with this Basic Agreement, Local Supplemental
Agreement, or plant practice, whichever is applicable.

This shall not apply if the delay beyond thirty (30) days is
caused by multiple bidding to fill the original vacancy.

(2) In the event an employee works more than twelve (12) hours in the
workday, he shall be paid for all hours worked in excess of such
twelve (12) hours at double the regular straight time hourly rate.

After an employee has been engaged in work for twelve (12)
consecutive hours, he shall be paid for all consecutive hours
worked immediately succeeding and in excess of such twelve (12)
hours at double the regular straight time hourly rate.

If an employee is being paid the rate of double time under the
foregoing paragraphs, his rate of pay shall not be reduced when
his work continues into or overlaps his regular shift. However,
the Company may exercise either of the following options:

15
16
A. The Company may instruct the employee to continue to the end of
the shift at the double time rate, or

B. The Company may send the employee home at any time during the
shift, provided the remainder of the shift is paid for at straight
time, subject to a maximum payment of four (4) hours at straight
time. Such employee cannot be called back to work until he has
been off duty for eight (8) consecutive hours.

In no event shall the first two provisions of the Section be
applied to the same hours of work. The provision which creates
the highest earnings shall be applied.

(3) Callouts and Off-days: In case an employee is called for work
during any hour in the day or week in addition to his regular
schedule he shall receive a minimum of four (4) hours' pay for
such work at the applicable overtime rate. However, if he is
notified before the end of his regular shift to report early, it
shall not be considered a callout. Callout hours and off-day
hours are overtime hours. All Sunday callouts to be paid a
minimum of four (4) hours at the applicable Sunday rate.

(4) Lunch period interrupted by work assignments: One-half (1/2) hour
at the applicable overtime rate shall be paid for any scheduled
lunch period interrupted by a work assignment and either prior or
subsequent to the regular lunch period, reasonable time for lunch
shall be granted with pay for same at the employee's regular rate.

(5) If an employee actually works seven consecutive workdays in the
plant workweek, regardless of the number of hours worked on any
workday, the employee shall be compensated by multiplying the
regular straight-time hourly rate by one (1) for each and every
hour worked during the seventh consecutive workday, and this
premium shall be paid in addition to whatever compensation the
employee is otherwise entitled to receive under any other Section
of this Article.

(f) Overtime paid on a daily basis shall not be duplicated on a weekly basis.

(g) If an employee does not work a regularly scheduled workday through action
of the Company, excused absence or because of a holiday, that day shall
be considered as actually a day worked for all overtime purposes.

(h) Limitations Upon Overtime:

(1) Every reasonable effort will be made by the Company to avoid
requesting any employee to work overtime and the Company will
consider under the circumstances involved any reasonable excuse
from an employee for not working the overtime. Whenever an
employee is laid off due to lack of work or because of curtailment
of operations, no overtime work shall be scheduled on any work
which the laid-off employee is capable of doing and is able to
perform, except in cases of emergency repair or unscheduled
absences of other employees. The foregoing to the contrary
notwithstanding, a laid-off employee will not be called back to
work unless there is at least thirty-two (32) hours work in the
workweek for such employee.

16
17
(2) Overtime in the various job classifications shall be equally
divided as defined by the Local Agreement insofar as it is
practical to do so. Any employee who is contacted and cannot work
the overtime including callouts will be charged with the number of
hours actually worked or paid, whichever is greater or according
to the Local Agreement. Overtime worked or charged shall be
posted weekly in each department by the xxxxxxx.

(3) Employees who are called upon to work overtime shall not be laid
off during their regular work time for the purpose of equalizing
said overtime.

(4) The Company will continue its practice of allowing a fifteen
minute paid wash-up time on continuous overtime beyond the end of
his shift. In addition, the Company will continue its practice of
paying overtime in fifteen (15) minute increments.

(5) A. Any employee who has not been notified of his overtime
assignment at least twelve (12) hours prior to the
commencement of the overtime assignment and who works more
than ten (10) consecutive hours, shall be provided with a hot
lunch which shall be eaten at the end of said ten (10)
consecutive hours, or as soon as practical thereafter but no
later than 30 minutes after the ten hours. Any employee who
works in excess of fourteen (14) consecutive hours shall be
provided with an additional lunch, and lunches will be
furnished at the end of every four (4) consecutive hours
worked thereafter.

B. Any employee who is called out and works more than four (4)
consecutive hours shall be provided with a hot lunch which
shall be eaten at the end of said four (4) consecutive hours.
In addition, said employee shall be provided with a hot lunch
every four (4) consecutive hours worked thereafter.

There shall be no duplication of hot lunches under provisions
A and B above. The employees shall be given reasonable time
to eat his lunch without loss of pay.

(C) THE COMPANY AGREES THAT THE ALLOWANCE FOR OVERTIME MEALS WILL BE
INCREASED TO $6.00 EFFECTIVE MAY 1, 1998, TO $6.50 EFFECTIVE MAY
1, 2000 AND TO $7.00 EFFECTIVE MAY 1, 2002.

(6) The purpose and intent of this Agreement is to refrain from
working an employee beyond sixteen (16) consecutive hours
excluding lunch periods. The Company agrees that they will not
work any employee beyond sixteen (16) consecutive hours excluding
lunch periods unless no other classified employee is available to
do the work.

However, in the event that a vacancy occurs that would require a
classified employee to work more than sixteen (16) consecutive
hours, the Company will fill that vacancy with another classified
employee who has primary overtime rights, an employee with
secondary overtime rights, or other qualified employee in the
stated order.

17
18
This Agreement does not absolve an employee from the requirement
to stay on the job until properly relieved. However, the Company
is required to make a diligent effort to provide a relief at the
end of the sixteen (16) hour period. The Company will not use the
eight (8) hour rest clause as an excuse to require an employee to
continue working after sixteen (16) hours.

(i) Eight Consecutive Hour Rest Premium

(1) An Employee should receive at least eight (8) consecutive hours
off work within the fourteen (14) consecutive hours immediately
preceding the start of his next scheduled shift. In the event an
employee does not receive eight (8) consecutive hours off work
within the fourteen (14) consecutive hours immediately preceding
the start of his next scheduled shift, the Company shall exercise
one of the following options:

A. Instruct the employee to report late for his next scheduled
shift by the number of hours his longest consecutive off-duty
period falls below eight (8) hours and pay the employee the
appropriate straight-time rate for those hours not worked
between the starting time of his scheduled shift and the time
he reports to work in accordance with the Company's
instructions. The appropriate straight time rate on the
workday Sunday shall be one and one-half (1.5) and on a
recognized holiday, two (2.0).

B. Instruct the employee to work at the starting time of his
scheduled shift. The employee shall receive a premium for
those hours worked which, if added to his longest consecutive
off-duty period, equal eight (8) hours. The premium shall be
determined by multiplying the regular straight-time hourly
rate by one (1). The premium shall be in addition to whatever
compensation the employee is otherwise entitled to receive
under any other Section of this Article.

(2) If an employee does not receive at least eight (8) consecutive
hours off work within the fourteen (14) consecutive hours
immediately preceding the start of callout hours worked on an
off-day (provided that any of the callout hours worked occur
within the hours the employee would have otherwise been scheduled
to work had the employee not been scheduled off), the employee
shall receive a premium for those hours worked which, if added to
his longest consecutive off-duty period, equal eight (8) hours.
The premium shall be determined by multiplying the regular
straight time hourly rate by one (1). The premium shall be in
addition to whatever compensation the employee is otherwise
entitled to receive under any other section of this Article.

(j) Wage Rate - Transfer and Assignments

(1) Employees temporarily transferred shall be paid the regular
straight time hourly rate of the job being performed or the
regular straight time hourly rate of his regular job, whichever is
greater.

18
19
(2) An employee regularly scheduled to work on two or more jobs having
different wage rates shall receive the highest rate for the entire
week. If a job is regularly scheduled to be performed each week
at least one workday in the workweek, the employee filling that
job shall receive the highest wage rate for the entire week. An
employee who is scheduled to work five workdays during the
workweek on a job or jobs having a higher straight time hourly
wage rate or wage rates than the employee's regular straight time
hourly rate, shall be paid at the higher straight time hourly wage
rate for the entire week. An employee who works on two or more
jobs in one day shall receive the highest wage rate for only the
time worked on the higher rated job. However, should the employee
work on a higher rated job(s) for four (4) or more hours in the
workday he will receive the higher rate of pay for the entire day.
The term "entire week" used in this section shall mean the 168
consecutive hours beginning at 7:00 a.m. on Sunday and ending at
7:00 a.m. on Sunday. The term "entire day" used in this Section
shall mean the 24 consecutive hours beginning at 7:00 a.m. and
ending the following day.

The 168 consecutive hours mentioned above shall begin at 7:00 a.m.
Monday and ending at 7:00 a.m. Monday, at Xxxxx X00, Xxxxxxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxx.

(3) The Company shall have the right to utilize employees to perform
any job; provided, however, overtime and callouts in any
classification shall be offered to the available classified
employees in that classification before other employees are
assigned such work. See Attachment "B" for Letter of
Understanding concerning transfers.

(k) Sunday Work

All hours worked by an employee on Sunday which are not paid for on a
premium and/or overtime basis shall be paid at the rate of one and
one-half (1-1/2) times the regular straight time hourly rate exclusive of
shift differentials. There shall be no duplication or pyramiding of
premium pay and/or overtime under this provision.

(l) Reporting Pay

Any employee who is required to report for work shall be given at least
four (4) hours pay at the regular straight time hourly rate, and shall
receive full pay for all time thereafter that he is required to remain on
the premises ready for work. Any employee put to work on his regular
working day shall receive full day's pay at the regular straight time
hourly rate.

(m) Funeral Leave

An employee, upon the notification of the death of his or her father,
mother, spouse, son, daughter, brother, sister, stepfather, stepmother,
stepson, stepdaughter, half sister, half brother, mother-in-law,
father-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, grandchild, grandparent, or
spouse's grandparent, shall be granted his or her next three (3)
scheduled working days off with pay (four (4) days off with pay if the
employee is required to travel beyond a radius of 500 miles). Payment by
the Company for such time lost shall be on the basis of eight (8) hours
per day at the employee's regular straight time hourly rate, including
shift differential.

19
20
As used herein, brother-in-law is defined to mean (1) the brother of
one's husband or wife, (2) the husband of one's sister, (3) the husband
of the sister of one's spouse, and sister-in-law is defined to mean (1)
the sister of one's husband or wife, (2) the wife of one's brother, (3)
the wife of the brother of one's spouse.

The above clause shall not apply to an employee who is laid off, except
when an employee is notified to return to work effective on or before the
day of the funeral he shall be granted full funeral leave with pay.

The Company will notify a local union official of a death of an
employee's relative as defined above as soon as the Company has been
advised by the employee.

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no bereavement payment
will be made unless the employee attends the funeral nor will payment be
made if there are more than fourteen calendar days between the date of
death and the next scheduled workday.

(n) Jury Duty

Any regular employee (as distinguished from a probationary employee)
required to perform jury duty on a day he is scheduled to work, shall be
excused from work on that day. The Company shall pay the employee the
difference between the amount received for such jury duty and eight (8)
hours at his regular rate of pay plus shift differential if involved.

The day or days paid for such jury service shall be counted as eight (8)
hours worked for the purpose of computing weekly overtime.

(o) Shift Changes

A shift employee may clock in up to 30 minutes prior to the actual
starting time of his shift and relieve the employee that he is to
replace. When properly relieved within this 30 minute period, the
employee being relieved may clock out and leave the plant.

Under such circumstances the pay received by the relieving and relieved
employees shall be computed as though both employees had clocked in and
out at the actual shift change time.

(p) Wash Time and Rest Breaks

(1) An employee who does not receive a paid lunch period shall not
clock out prior to the regular quitting time for his shift.
However, he shall be permitted to leave his place of work 15
minutes prior to the regular quitting time for his shift to wash
provided that the employee is not required to work overtime. An
employee who does not receive 15 minutes away from the job to wash
because he has been required by the Company to work up to but not
after the regular quitting time for his shift, shall be
compensated for lost wash time by multiplying his regular straight
time hourly rate by fifteen minutes (.25 hour). If the employee
uses additional time to clean following the regular quitting time
for his shift, he shall be paid as though he had clocked out at
the regular quitting time.

20
21
(2) An employee who does not receive a paid lunch period and who is
required to work overtime after the regular quitting time for his
shift shall clock out no more than 15 minutes after he leaves his
place of work. This shall not apply to an employee on call out.

(3) An employee who does not receive a paid lunch period will be
allowed a 15 minute rest break away from his job during the first
four hours of his regular shift. Break times shall be determined
by the employee's xxxxxxx and the efficient operation of the plant
shall be controlling. The 15 minute break shall be strictly
construed to be the total time away from the job. Should any
employee regularly be denied a break, he may file a grievance in a
timely manner.

(4) The Company is not required to grant any employee who does receive
a paid lunch period any wash-up time and any rest break.
Furthermore, said employee shall eat his lunch "on-the-job" so
that there is no interruption of operations.

(q) Any other provisions of this labor agreement to the contrary not
withstanding, no employee shall receive pay for any hour worked or
unworked which singly or in any combination, exceeds triple his regular
straight time hourly rate.

ARTICLE Vl

VACATIONS WITH PAY

(a) Any employee who works during at least thirteen (13) weeks in either each
calendar year or each anniversary year, as defined in the Local
Agreements, shall be granted a vacation off work without loss of pay,
according to the following schedule:

(b) All employees who have completed one or more anniversary years of service
but less than five (5) years of service will be entitled to two (2) weeks
of vacation, provided they meet all other requirements of this Article.

Employees who have completed five (5) or more anniversary years of
service but less than fifteen (15) years of service will be entitled to
three (3) weeks of vacation, provided they meet all other requirements of
this Article.

Employees who have completed fifteen (15) or more anniversary years of
service, but less than twenty-five (25) years of service, will be
entitled to four (4) weeks of vacation, provided they meet all other
requirements of this Article.

Employees who have completed twenty-five (25) or more anniversary years
of service will be entitled to five (5) weeks of vacation, provided they
meet all other requirements of this Article.

Article Vl (b) above to the contrary notwithstanding, no employee (who
meets all the other requirements of this Article Vl) shall be entitled to
any fewer weeks of vacation than he was entitled to take in 1984.

21
22
(c) Vacation pay will be based on a forty (40) hour week at the rate of the
permanently assigned classification on which an employee is working at
the time he takes his vacation. If an employee has held a single higher
rated classification for more than six (6) months during the year
preceding his vacation, he will receive vacation pay computed at the
higher rate. Vacation pay shall include appropriate shift differential
for those on fixed shift. Employees working on rotating shifts shall be
paid an average of the rates for the rotating shifts involved.

(d) Vacations will not be cumulative, but so far as practicable, be granted
at times most desired by the employees, but the final right to allotment
of vacation period is exclusively reserved to the Company in order to
insure the orderly operation of the plant. In exercising its right to
allot vacation periods, the Company will not require any employee who is
on layoff to take his vacation during periods of plant shutdown or
curtailment of operation. Where requested vacation periods conflict,
preference shall be given to the older employee in point of service.

(e) It is further agreed that if any employees have previously selected their
vacation period so that it occurs during an unforeseen shutdown such
vacation period shall not be changed.

Vacation shall be taken by the employee within the calendar year in which
it is granted as determined by the Local Agreements.

(f) No employee will be required and/or requested to work during his seven
day vacation period. The only exception will be when a classification
has two or fewer employees, no qualified personnel are available except
the employee on vacation, and an emergency situation exists. In that
event an employee on vacation may be requested to work.

(g) The rules governing the submission of appropriate vacation application
blanks shall be defined by the Local Agreement.

(h) Upon two weeks written notice by an employee to the Personnel Clerk, the
Company will give him his vacation pay on the employee's last shift prior
to the beginning of his vacation.

ARTICLE VII

HOLIDAYS

(a) The Company will grant eleven (11) paid holidays; these holidays shall be
listed in each Local Agreement.

(b) If any such holiday falls on Sunday, the following Monday shall be the
recognized holiday. The holiday hours shall be those hours within the 24
hour period commencing with the beginning of the first shift on the
morning of the holiday and ending at the beginning of the first shift the
following day.

(c) Employees who are scheduled to work on a holiday shall be paid two and
one-half (2.5) times the regular straight time hourly rate.

22
23
(d) Hours worked on a holiday in excess of eight (8) in a workday, in excess
of forty (40) in a workweek, on off-days, and on callouts shall be paid

receive eight (8) hours pay at the regular straight time hourly rate,
provided he meets the following qualifications.

(1) The employee shall have been employed by the Company for at least
thirty (30) calendar days prior to the holiday.

(2) The employee shall have worked his last scheduled working day
prior to and his next scheduled working day after such holiday
unless excused therefrom by the Plant Manager on account of
sickness, accident, death in the family, or other excused absence.
In no event shall a holiday be paid for unless an employee has
also worked during the thirty (30) day period immediately
preceding or immediately following the holiday except that the
thirty (30) day limitation shall not apply if the employee was
temporarily absent from work because of sickness, accident or
layoff. In any event, the employee must work at least one day in
the calendar year in which the holiday is granted.

(f) If an employee is scheduled to work on a holiday and fails to work, he
shall not receive holiday pay, unless excused therefrom by the Plant
Manager.

(g) If an employee works on a holiday, the holiday shall be counted as a day
worked for computing weekly overtime. Paid holiday is to count as a day
worked for overtime purposes, provided holiday falls on one of employee's
scheduled workdays and he would have worked that day except for holiday
observance.

(h) An employee not scheduled to work the holiday and who subsequently
performs work on a holiday will be considered as being on callout and
will be paid eight (8) hours at the regular straight time hourly rate in
addition to two (2) times the regular straight time hourly rate for all
time worked with a minimum of four (4) hours at double time.

(i) Work schedules for each workweek which include a holiday will be posted
prior to the end of the first shift on Thursday of the previous week. If
an employee is scheduled to work on a holiday, but then is instructed by
the Company not to work, he shall receive for that holiday eight (8)
hours pay at two and one-half (2.5) times the regular straight time
hourly rate.

(j) The phrase "regular straight time hourly rate" as used solely in Article
Vll, Holidays, shall mean the higher of either the employee's regular
straight time hourly rate or to the highest straight time hourly rate for
a job on which the employee works at least eight (8) consecutive hours in
the workweek in which the holiday falls provided (1) that the eight hours
had been previously scheduled or (2) the hours are worked the day before
or the day after the holiday whether previously scheduled or not.

23
24
ARTICLE VIII

regular straight time hourly rate.

(2) Scheduled shift workers on the second shift shall receive the
regular straight time hourly rate plus 52c. per hour.

scheduled shift worker, then the premium rate for the shift shall
apply.

(6) The premium pay does not alter the provisions covered in this
contract under the head of "Working Conditions".

(d) The Company may at its discretion increase wages in any class or to an
individual in any class without necessitating a change in the rate of any
individual or class.

(e) Any job not mentioned in this Agreement or any job with substantial
changes in duties, equipment or requirements, or any new job created in
the plant, shall be open for negotiations by the Company and the Union as
to wages upon written notice from either party to the other party. If no
agreement can be reached during the above negotiations, the matter shall
be subject to the grievance procedure.

24
25
ARTICLE IX

HANDLING OF COMPLAINTS

(a) All employees shall at all times make an effort to perform their duties
in such a manner as to promote safe and efficient operation of their
department and the plant as a whole.

(1) Should a difference arise between an employee and the Company as
to the meaning and application of this Agreement or should a
difference arise as to the meaning and application of a recognized
practice, the employee with or without his xxxxxxx shall present
his complaint to his xxxxxxx within ten (10) working days after
the date of the alleged wrong or within ten (10) working days
after the date the employee received his payroll check, whichever
is later. Failure by the employee and/or the Union to observe
this time limit shall cause the grievance to be considered settled
in favor of the Company.

(2) The xxxxxxx shall orally reply to the employee within five (5)
working days after the date the employee presented his complaint
in Section (1). Failure by the Company to observe this time limit
shall cause the grievance to be considered settled in favor of the
employee.

(3) If the employee is not satisfied with the xxxxxxx'x reply, the
employee may request his xxxxxxx to present the grievance in
writing to the Union Grievance Committee. If the Union Grievance
Committee believes that the complaint is justified, it may submit
the complaint in writing to the Plant Manager within five (5)
working days of the date of the xxxxxxx'x reply in Section (2).
The Plant Manager shall schedule a meeting with the Union
Grievance Committee and any member or members of the staff that
the Plant Manager desires to have present. This meeting shall
take place within fifteen (15) working days of the date the Union
Grievance Committee submits the grievance to the Plant Manager.
Failure to observe any time limit shall cause the grievance to be
considered settled in favor of the employee if the Company has
failed to observe the time limit or in favor of the Company if the
employee and/or the Union has failed to observe the time limit.

(4) The parties shall use their best efforts to settle the complaint.
If the parties agree upon the disposition of the grievance, they
shall reduce their understanding to writing and the grievance
shall be settled. If the parties are unable to agree, the Union
Grievance Committee may at the employee's request and within
thirty (30) days of the date of the meeting between the Plant
Manager and the Union Grievance Committee submit the grievance in
writing to the Director of Industrial Relations or his
representative with copies to the International Vice President or
District

25
26
Council Representative and the Plant Manager. The Director of
Industrial Relations shall contact the International Vice
President or District Council Representative within seven (7) days
after receipt of the grievance to schedule a meeting. The parties
shall use their best efforts to schedule the meeting within thirty
(30) days. Failure to observe any time limit shall cause the
grievance to be considered settled in favor of the employee if the
Company has failed to observe the time limit or in favor of the
Company if the employee and/or the Union has failed to observe the
time limit.

(5) After full consideration, and such conference as may be mutually
agreed upon with an International or District Council
Representative of the Union, the grievance shall be considered
settled when the employee's and the Company's representative shall
have reached an agreement.

(6) If the parties are unable to settle the grievance, either party
can notify the other party in writing that it intends to submit
the grievance to arbitration. This notice must be given within
ten (10) days of the last meeting in Section (5) OR AFTER TEN (10)
DAYS WRITTEN RESPONSE FROM THE COMPANY. The consent of the other
party is not required to arbitrate a grievance.

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, either party may
exercise the following option:

For the purpose of expediting and facilitating the resolution of a
grievance which has been processed through step (5) of the
grievance procedure and which would otherwise be submitted to
arbitration, either the Company or the Union may elect to submit
said grievance to a panel which will consist of a Vice President
of the International Union or his representative and the Vice
President of Operations of the Company or his representative,
provided that no member of the panel can be a party to any
discussion of the grievance during an earlier step of the
grievance procedure. Each party can submit a maximum of five (5)
grievances to the panel during any calendar year. Only a
grievance about the interpretation of contract language in the
Basic or Local Agreement can be submitted to the panel. A party
electing to submit said grievance to the panel must notify the
panel and the other party within ten (10) days after a decision
has been made at step (5). The authority of said panel shall be
no greater than the authority of the arbitrator as set forth in
(d) of the grievance procedure. The panel shall meet at the Plant
where the grievance arose.

A maximum of two members of the Union Grievance Committee can
attend a panel meeting. The decision of the said panel shall be
final and binding upon the Company and the Union. In the event
the Union representative on the panel and the Company
representative on the panel are unable to agree, either the Union
or the Company may elect to submit such grievance to arbitration
as provided in step (6) of the grievance procedure. The party
electing to arbitrate the grievance must give notice to the other
party within ten (10) days after the Union representative on the
panel and the Company representative on the panel have jointly
informed the parties that the panel is unable to make a decision.
Failure to observe any time limit shall cause the grievance to be
considered settled in favor of the employee if the Company has
failed to observe the time limit or in favor of the Company if the
employee and/or the Union has failed to observe the time limit.

26
27
(b) If either party does not notify the other within ninety (90) days of the
notice of its intent in (a) (6) above, that it now wishes to mutually
select an arbitrator and schedule a hearing date, then the parties shall
consider the grievance to have been withdrawn by the moving party.

When the moving party notifies the other of its wish to mutually select
an arbitrator, the parties shall select an arbitrator within ten (10)
days. Failing to reach an agreement upon the selection of an arbitrator,
the moving party may request the appointment of an arbitrator by either
the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service or the American
Arbitration Association.

Grievances heard by the arbitrator must be presented in chronological
order based on the date the grievances were written except in discharge
cases which may be presented out of chronological order or in cases where
the parties have mutually agreed in writing to waive the chronological
order requirement.

(c) All time limits set forth in (a) and (b) shall be strictly observed; time
limits can be extended by a written agreement between the parties.

Whenever the term "working days" occurs in the grievance procedure, it
shall be defined by the parties to mean plant work days, Monday through
Friday.

Whenever the term "days" is used in this section, it shall be defined by
the parties to mean calendar days.

(d) The arbitrator shall consider only the grievance appealed to him and
shall have jurisdiction and authority only to interpret, apply, or
determine compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, and only the
extent necessary to determine the grievance. The arbitrator shall not
have jurisdiction or authority to add to, modify, detract from, or alter
in any way the provisions of this Agreement.

(e) The arbitrator's decision shall, at the request of either party, be in
writing and shall be final and binding on both parties. The fees and
expenses of the arbitration proceeding, except fees for witnesses brought
in by either party and legal counsel's fees, shall be borne equally by
the Company and the Union. Bargaining unit employees including
Committeemen who participate in arbitration proceedings shall not be
compensated by the Company.

(f) Grievances involving the provisions of the collective bargaining
agreement and occurring so as to be processed to arbitration at the same
time will be at the request of either party arbitrated before the same
arbitrator. However, it is agreed that not more than four (4) cases will
be heard at one series of hearings.

(g) Local Union officers and stewards off-duty and representatives of the
International Union and District Council shall, upon notice to the
Company, be permitted on Company's premises to investigate grievances.

(h) Meetings will be conveniently scheduled so as to complete all business
within the normal working day for day employees. Any employee who is
scheduled to work during the hours

27
28
the meeting is held and who attends the meeting will be compensated by
multiplying the regular straight time hourly rate by the hours he attends
the meeting. In addition, if the employee attends the meeting beyond his

LOCAL AGREEMENT NO. 76-3

It is agreed and understood by the Medusa Cement Company and the United Cement,
Lime and Gypsum Workers' Local No. 23 that in the awarding of all future
permanent vacancies, qualifications (skill and ability) gained through
temporary assignment to a job will not be considered in determining the
successful bidder for the job bid. It is further agreed and understood that
the above interpretation will apply only to the initial job posted for bid, and
will not apply to subsequent jobs posted for bid which result from the vacancy
created by the initial job award.

The conditions of this agreement become effective on September 10, 1976.

MEDUSA CEMENT COMPANY LOCAL NO. 23

Additional Language - Local Agreement 76-3

Experience gained through temporary assignment to a job will not be considered
in determining the successful bidder in job brackets 1 through 10, regardless
of whether or not it is an initial bid or subsequent bid.

If the Union determines that evidence indicates that the Company is
pre-training certain employees so that employees are being discriminatorily
selected for a particular job opening, it may present this allegation in the
form of a grievance which will commence at the third step of the grievance
procedure.

If an employee wishes to meet with the Administrative Assistant to exercise his
wish to be trained on another classification, he may do so, and his request
will be given careful consideration.

overtime, then the lowest man in overtime qualified to do the work will be
required to fill the overtime need.

In the case of shift workers, they will still be required to stay on overtime
if necessary until they are relieved.
