               the school or childcare facility as proof that the employee participated in school or childcare

               Military Spouse Leave

               Employees in California who work at least an average of 20  hours per week and whose spouse
               or domestic partner is a  member of the United States Armed Forces, National Guard,  or Army
               Reserves on active duty in an area of military conflict  are eligible to receive up to ten (10) days
               off from work, on an  unpaid basis, during a period when their spouse or domestic  partner is on
               leave from deployment during a period of military  conflict, to the extent permitted by applicable
               law. Employees must provide notice of the unpaid leave to the Company within two (2) business
               days  of  receiving  official  notice  that  the  qualifying  military  member  will  be  on  leave  from
               deployment and provide written documentation certifying that the qualifying military member
               will be on leave from deployment during the time requested for the unpaid leave of absence.
               When  Military  Spouse  leave  is  provided,  it  shall  also  count  toward  the  employee’s  FMLA
               entitlement where legally permissible.

               Volunteer Civil Service Personnel

               No employee shall be disciplined for taking time off to perform emergency duty as a volunteer
               firefighter,  reserve  peace  officer,  or  emergency  rescue  personnel.  Employees  who  perform
               emergency duty as a volunteer firefighter, reserve peace officer, or emergency rescue personnel
               may also take up to a total of fourteen days unpaid leave time per calendar year to engage in fire,
               law enforcement or emergency rescue training. Please alert your supervisor that you may have
               to  take  time  off  for  emergency  duty  or  emergency  duty  training.  When  taking  time  off  for
               emergency duty, please alert your supervisor before doing so when possible. Exempt employees
               who work any portion of a workweek in which they also perform such emergency duties or
               participate in such training will receive their full salary for that workweek. Otherwise, leave under
               this policy will be unpaid.  Employees may elect to substitute accrued vacation (or in the case of
               exempt employees, request to substitute unlimited vacation, subject to the terms and conditions
               of that policy) for any unpaid portion of leave to perform such emergency duties or participate
               in such training.

               For information regarding these provisions or other rights or benefits under California law, please
               contact Human Resources.
