Notes
 
A) For field service, "time" is based on travel time to the job from personnel's regularly assigned office location, on-the-job work hours, and return travel to the office location. Travel time will be billed as straight time and will not exceed 8 hours. Travel time from job to job will be charged prorata.
 
B) Overtime applies to all time that MHC Corp. employee spent working in excess of 8 hours during a normal work day, any time other than normal day shift and any time on Saturdays, and will be billed at 1-1/2 times the regular rate. Any time on Sundays and holidays recognized by MHC Corp. will be billed at 2 times the regular rate.
 
C) A "man day" is 8 hours time per man during normal day shift working hours. The minimum invoiced for the field service shall be for one-half man day (or four hours); time spent on the job and traveling in excess of 4 hours, but less than 8 hours, may be invoiced as one man day.
 
D) Standby time is chargeable "on call" time during which the service representative is available but unable to proceed with work functions due to jobsite delays. On-site standby time is chargeable at the applicable rate. Off-site standby time is chargeable at 1/2 the applicable rate. While off-site time on weekdays, beyond 8 hours, or on weekends and holidays is considered non-chargeable personal time, the field representative can be made available on an "on-call" basis if required. This availability, when requested, becomes chargeable at applicable straight time rates. On-site time required as a result becomes chargeable at the applicable overtime rate.
 
E) For field service visits which extend beyond two weeks, the service representative will be allowed to travel home on the second weekend with time and expenses chargeable at the applicable rate.
 
F) When MHC Corp. finds it necessary to hire service representatives of other companies to place in service major equipment, we shall invoice for this service at cost, plus 15% to cover handling.
 
G) Domestic Service may be obtained by contacting MHC Corp., Antioch, California.
 
H) Foreign Service is available only upon application and acceptance by MHC Corp.
 
I) Service time can be reserved, pending 24 hour dispatch, at applicable standard hourly rates, based on an 8-hour day.
 
 
Expenses
 
A) Travel - Plane, private, or rental automobile charges from the point of regularly assigned location of the service representative, return, plus any required local travel. Private automobile use charged at the rate of .37 cents per mile. Tolls and parking fees are additional. When our service representative goes from job to job rather than returning to his headquarters, travel charges will be distributed prorata.
 
B) Living - Expenses for lodging, meals and incidental costs.
 
C) Receipts for air travel, automobile rental and lodging available upon request. Receipts for meals and incidental costs are not required by MHC Corp., but can be supplied with prior arrangements.
 
D) All expenses are at cost.
