at a rate of 1.54 hours per pay period if you work a 40 hour work week.  If you are
               scheduled to work less than 40 hours per week, but more than 30 hours, your accrual
               rate will be prorated based on your work schedule.

               When taking vacation, provided you have accrued sufficient  vacation days, the
               minimum amount of time you must take is one-half (1/2) day, unless you receive prior
               approval  from your supervisor.  Temporary, Variable or Seasonal  employees  are not
               entitled to vacation.    Employees who are  inactive or  on  a leave of absence or are
               suspended will not earn or accrue vacation for the period in which they are inactive, on
               leave or suspended.

               Vacation may be carried over from one year to the next until you have carried over a
               total of 1.75 times your annual vacation entitlement.  Once you accrue the maximum
               allowable vacation, you will stop accruing  vacation until some portion of the  accrued
               vacation time is used, thereby reducing the amount of accrued vacation below the cap.
               Accordingly, you may not, at any time, have more than 8.75 days of accrued, unused
               vacation.

               Request  forms (Employee Leave Request)  for  vacation  are available from the
               leadership team and are to be submitted to the employee’s immediate supervisor and
               approved prior to granting time  off.  Employees are asked to  submit requests  for
               vacation at least one month prior to the scheduled vacation date, unless the request is
               due to an unexpected situation.  Efforts  will be made to grant vacation time  as
               requested, but business needs may require an employee to adjust his or her vacation
               time.

               Employees who leave the Company will be paid for accrued, unused  vacation at  the
               end of their employment at their base rate of pay at the time of termination.  Employees
               may not otherwise receive pay in lieu of vacation.


               PAID SICK LEAVE

               The Company will meet the minimum statutory requirements for paid sick leave for each
               location.

               All employees who work for the Company in California for 30 or more days per year
               after commencing employment will receive 24 hours or three (3) days of paid sick leave
               per year at their regular rate of pay.  The paid sick leave allotment will be provided to
               employees at the  beginning of    the employees anniversary  year for use  within  the
               following twelve (12) month period.  Employees are entitled to use paid sick leave after
               the conclusion of their first  90  days of  employment.  Sick  leave may be taken in
               increments of two hours or more.

               Paid sick leave for this purpose may be used for:
