SUBJECT: Vacation & Paid Time Off (PTO) Policy

As part of the benefits package, each Holly Systems employee is eligible for a certain number of paid vacation days each calendar year. The amount of vacation the employee is entitled to depend upon how long they have worked for our company.

• Six months to two years — one week paid vacation
• Two to five years — two weeks paid vacation
• Five to ten years — three weeks paid vacation
• Ten years or more — four weeks paid vacation

Scheduling Vacations

Requests for vacation days must be made at least two weeks in advance of the planned vacation time except in cases of emergency. Supervisors will attempt to accommodate requested vacation schedules providing they do not cause an unreasonable disruption in company business.

Vacation time does not roll over into new calendar years. The previous year’s vacation days not used by December 31 will be considered lost vacation time.

Vacation in Cases of Termination

Employees who terminate employment by retirement or resignation are entitled to receive payment for any unused vacation time. However, those who are dismissed with a cause or who retire or resign without due notice are not entitled to pay for unused vacation time.

Dear Ray:

Can you believe one year has passed since we struck our first business deal at the Automobile Dealers Christmas Banquet? We hit it off right away and knew we could trust each other. This past year our business relationship has had a positive impact on my sales. Because of your parts management team, my company has been able to provide our customers with high-quality used cars.

Since this month marks the anniversary of our business relationship, I would like to invite you to an appreciation dinner. Another one of our vice-presidents, Joel Sanders, will also be present. He is eager to meet you. My assistant will call to make arrangements.
