Employees are expected to cooperate fully with authorities in the event of an accident. However,
               employees should not make any statements other than in response to questions from investigating
               officers.

               Non-Exempt  Employee  Driving  Time:  Time  spent  by  non-exempt  employees  in  driving  a
               Mission  vehicle  or  a  personal  vehicle  on  Mission  business  during  normal  working  hours  is
               considered hours worked for pay purposes. Commuting time before the start and after the end of
               the workday is not treated as work time for pay purposes.

               MEMBERSHIP IN CLUBS AND CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS

               Employees are encouraged to seek membership in community clubs and civic organizations where
               membership will promote Mission’s business interests and enhance its image in the community.
               Unless it is at Mission’s request or under its direction and control, participation in club or civic
               organizational activities is not considered “hours worked” for pay purposes.  For further details,
               please refer to the Expense Reimbursement and Travel Policy.

               PARTICIPATION IN TRADE & PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS


               Employees  are  encouraged  to  participate  in  trade  and  professional  associations  that  promote
               Mission goals, individual skills development, and professional recognition. However, employee
               participation in these associations must not conflict with Mission’s business interests or interfere
               with an employee’s job performance. Employee participation in trade and professional association
               activities will not be considered as hours worked for pay purposes for employees classified as non-
               exempt under the FLSA and applicable state laws, unless participation is at Mission’s request or
               under Mission’s direction and control.

               Sponsored Membership: Mission will pay or reimburse the approved and reasonable expenses
               of employees sponsored for membership in trade and professional associations. Employees not
               sponsored for association membership may be eligible for reimbursement for the  expenses of
               special association events, if participation in the activity is approved in advance by Mission.

               Official Positions: Prior to soliciting or accepting any official position in a trade or professional
               association, employees must obtain supervisor/manager approval. Accepting an official position
               in a trade or professional association must not conflict with Mission’s business interests or interfere
               with an employee’s job performance.
