Layoff Order Regular employees shall be laid-off on the basis of the classification and department/school designated for the layoff by the Employer. When the required qualifications, skill and ability to perform the work in question are equal among two (2) or more employees occupying such classification, the senior employee shall receive preference, provided always that the employee to be retained in that classification and department or school meets the criteria of the job description qualification sheet, and has the required qualifications, skill and ability to perform the work in question.
Placement of Orders The Adviser shall arrange for the placing of all orders for the purchase and sale of securities for a Fund’s account with brokers or dealers selected by the Adviser. In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders, the Adviser is directed at all times to seek for each Fund the most favorable execution and net price available under the circumstances. It is also understood that it is desirable for the Funds that the Adviser have access to brokerage and research services provided by brokers who may execute brokerage transactions at a higher cost to the Funds than may result when allocating brokerage to other brokers, consistent with section 28(e) of the 1934 Act and any Commission staff interpretations thereof. Therefore, the Adviser is authorized to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for a Fund with such brokers, subject to review by the Board from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of this practice. It is understood that the services provided by such brokers may be useful to the Adviser in connection with its or its affiliates’ services to other clients.
