Statement: It is our policy, in general, not to rehire employees who had been involuntarily

previous employee must receive approval from the Human Resource Department.

Policy
It is Hanford Pharmaceuticals policy to consider former employees for approved/budgeted
open positions. Employees who leave the Company, either voluntarily or through no fault
of their own, and who make application for reemployment will be given consideration.
Hanford Pharmaceuticals does not re-employ those who were terminated for performance
and/or violation of Company policies or guidelines.
Eligibility
This policy applies to all former employees who were in good standing with Hanford
Pharmaceuticals at the time of his/her termination.
General Guidelines
1. When position openings occur, Hanford Pharmaceuticals will give employment
consideration to applicants who are former employees who have performed
satisfactorily and who have terminated their employment under favorable
circumstances. Each application will be considered on its own merits after a review of
the applicant's record, the type of position available, and other relevant factors.
2. Before pursuing the recruitment and selection process with a former employee, the
individual conducting the search must contact the Human Resources Department to
review the position opening and the former employee's record. Records of former
employees who were terminated involuntarily will be reviewed by Human Resources
to determine the circumstances of the termination. Supervisors are advised to contact
the applicant's former supervisor (at the Company), if available, for a reference.
3. Should a former employee be rehired, the person will be reinstated with her/his
benefits in accordance with procedures stated herein.
4. Hanford Pharmaceuticals may, at its sole discretion, re-hire an individual through an
agency. At that time, when the individual achieves the status of regular or part time

employee, the Company shall recognize the original hire date through the agency as
the Hanford hire date. This date, however, is subject to guidelines herein, namely
procedures 1 & 2.
5. Human Resources shall ensure the procedures herein are described in the contingent
written offer letter.
Procedures
1. Re-Hired within 180 days: An individual with one or more years of continuous full-
time employment at the time of termination, returning to a full-time position within
180 calendar days of his/her termination date, will retain the original hire date for the
purpose of vacation accrual, retirement vesting, and have all benefits immediately
reinstated. A new anniversary date will be assigned for wage and salary purposes.
Certain benefit policy stipulations may override this rehire policy. Changes to
compensation benefits and policies are stipulated herein.
2. Re-Hired after 180 days: An individual rehired after a break in service of more than
180 days will have a new date-of-hire and must re-accrue time for benefits and length
of service the same as any external new hire.
3. Introductory Period and Time Off Carry Over: A rehired employee will be subject to
an Introductory Period in his/her new job and will not carry over any sick, vacation, or
personal days from prior employment at the Company.
4. Re-Hire Wage: When an employee returns to Hanford Pharmaceuticals, the employee
will be brought into the position at a wage per established Total Compensation
Guidelines. No exceptions or consideration of previous position/wage will be given.
5. Merit Increase & Pay Adjustments: Recommendations for a merit increase may occur
on the employee’s anniversary date, and only if performance warrants such an
increase per established Total Performance Guidelines and Total Compensation
Guidelines. The anniversary date is determined based on the re-hire date (refer to
above procedures 1 & 2). A recommended merit increase may be delayed to occur no
later than 60 days after successful completion of the Introductory Period. This will
occur if the 90-day Introductory Period is within the time of the employee’s
anniversary date. In this situation, a memorandum describing performance and
supporting a recommended merit increase shall suffice.
6. Trainee Increases: A re-hired employee will be eligible for a trainee increase per
established Total Compensation Guidelines.
