               California Appendix

               The following provisions apply to employees based in California (and supplement, and to the
               extent inconsistent, supersede, the policy language regarding the same or similar topics in the
               Employee Handbook):

               Pregnancy Disability Leave and Accommodation

               California employees disabled from working due to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical
               conditions will be granted an unpaid pregnancy disability leave up to the lesser of the actual
               period of disability, or four months. This is in addition to any Family Care and Medical Leave to
               which  the  employee  may  be  entitled  in  order  to  care  for  the  newborn.  Pregnancy-related
               disability  leaves  may  be  taken  intermittently,  or  on  a  reduced-hours  schedule,  as  medically
               necessary.

               The Company will reasonably accommodate an employee’s medical needs related to pregnancy,
               childbirth, or related conditions, as well as transfer an employee to a less strenuous or hazardous
               position (where the transfer can be reasonably accommodated) or duties if medically needed
               because of an employee’s pregnancy. Requests for leave should be submitted in writing and be
               supported by certification from the attending physician. If the leave or transfer is foreseeable,
               the employee must provide 30 calendar days’ advance notice to the Company of the need for
               pregnancy-related disability leave or transfer. If it is not practicable for the employee to give 30
               calendar days’ advance notice of the need for leave or transfer, the employee must notify the
               Company as soon as practicable after learning of the need for the pregnancy-related disability
               leave or transfer. While on approved Pregnancy Disability Leave, Company-paid group health
               insurance coverage remains in effect for a maximum of four months. During that time period,
               dependent benefit coverage will remain in effect as long as the employee continues to pay their
               portion  of  the  cost.  The  Company  will  thereafter  continue  health  insurance  coverage  for
               approved Family Care and Medical Leave Parental Leave, if applicable, to bond with the newborn.
