UNION AND MANAGEMENT

Section 1. Parties and Effective Date: The parties to this Agreement are: Xxxxx-Xxxxxxx Electronics Corporation, its successors or assigns, hereinafter called the "Company" and Local 1031, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, AFL-CIO, hereinafter called the "Union". This Agreement shall become effective June 28, 2013.

Section 2. Expiration Date and Renewal: This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until July 3, 2016 and then shall automatically renew itself from year to year thereafter, unless the Company or the Union gives written notice to the other party to amend, modify or terminate within not less than sixty (60) days prior to any expiration date. The parties may by mutual agreement modify or amend this Agreement at any time hereafter.

Section 3. Recognition: The Company recognizes the Union as the sole and exclusive collective bargaining agent for all of the Company's production and maintenance employees located at 0000 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx – Xxxxx X, XxXxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000 excluding Xxxxx-Xxxxxxx Electronics Corporation executives and non-working supervisors, office, clerical and sales employees, engineering and laboratory employees, supervisors, guards, outside truck drivers, journey & craft persons who are represented for purposes of collective bargaining by unions affiliated with the AFL-CIO.

Section 4. Management: The management of the Company and its operations, the direction of the work force, including the right to hire, assign, suspend, transfer, promote, discharge or discipline for just cause and to maintain discipline and efficiency of its employees and the right to relieve employees from duty because of lack of work or for other legitimate reasons not in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement; the right to determine the extent to which the plant shall be operated; the right to introduce new or improved production methods, processes or equipment; the right to decide the number and locations of plants, the nature of equipment or machinery, the products to be manufactured, the methods and processes of manufacturing, the scheduling of production, the method of training employees, the designing and engineering of products and the control of raw materials; the right to continue in accordance with past practice to assign work to outside contractors; and the right to enact Company policies, plant rules and regulations which are not in conflict with this Agreement, are vested exclusively in the Company.

The Union recognizes that there are functions, powers, authorities and responsibilities belonging solely to the Company, prominent among which, but by no means inclusive, are those enumerated in the preceding paragraph. The management rights enumerated in said paragraph are not inclusive and shall not be deemed to exclude other functions not herein listed.

The term "just cause" as used in this Agreement includes but is not limited to any violations of a published plant rule established pursuant to the provisions of Article I.

Section 5. Union Shop: All employees covered by the terms of this Agreement shall be required to become and remain members of the Union as a condition of employment from and after the sixty-first (61st) day following the date of their employment or the effective date of this Agreement, whichever is later.

Section 6. Check-Off: The Company agrees that it will make weekly deductions from each weekly pay check covering any and all amount of dues and initiation fees that may hereafter become due to the Union for any of its employees covered hereunder, provided that the Union requests such deductions and accompanies such requests with properly and legally executed assignments, in accordance with law, authorizing such deductions. The employer further agrees that once each week, it will remit promptly to the Union such collected amounts. At the end of each calendar month, the Company shall forward to the Union an alphabetical list of the names and the total amounts deducted during said month from each employee covered. In lieu of this monthly alphabetical list, the Company may, at its option, forward to the Union such an alphabetical list each week along with the weekly remittance of collected amounts.

If through inadvertence or error, the Company fails or neglects to make a deduction which is properly due and owing from an employee's weekly pay check, such deduction shall be made from the next weekly pay check of the employee and promptly remitted to the Union. It is expressly agreed and understood that the Union assumes full responsibility for the validity and the legality of such employee's deductions as are made by the Company and hereby agrees to indemnify and save the Company harmless, by virtue of such collections and payments to the Union.

No deduction shall be made from any employee for union dues in any week in which such employee receives a check representing a total of less than eight (8) hours at the employees regular rate of pay nor shall any deduction be made from any employee's pay check prior to the date on which, by the terms of this Agreement, he/she is required to become a member of the Union as a condition of employment.

Section 7. Non-Discrimination: It is agreed between the parties that in the policies and practices of the Company and in the membership policies and practices of the Union there shall continue to be no discrimination against any employee on account of race, creed, color, national origin or sex.

Section 8. Trial Period Employees:

(a)

Trial Period: New employees shall be on trial until they have been employed for a period of sixty (60) calendar days and during such period the Company shall have the right to dismiss or retain the employee at its own discretion. Upon completion of such sixty (60) calendar days of employment, the employee shall be deemed to be a regular employee. In all instances where a trial period employee is laid off for lack of work or granted a leave of absence for illness or other good cause, such reduction from active employment shall be deemed to be a layoff, unless at the date it occurs, the employee is given a written notice stating that he/she is terminated.

(b)

Return from Leave or Recall of Laid Off Trial Period Employee: Trial period employees who are laid off and by election of the Company subsequently recalled or who are granted a leave of absence and subsequently return to work, must complete sixty (60) calendar days of trial period active employment within six (6) months of the date of their original hire date in order to become a regular employee. Periods of trial period active employment, as referred to above, shall include any week in which the employee works at least one full day. At such time as the employee completes sixty (60) calendar day trial period active employment, his/her "original hiring date", for the purpose of determining his/her length of service (in accordance with Article IV, Section 3(b)) shall be established as that date sixty (60) calendar days prior to the date of completion of the trial period employment requirement.

(c)

Trial Period Employee Recalled Before Expiration of Six-Month Period: Trial period employees who have not completed sixty (60) calendar days of trial period employment within six (6) months from their original date of hire, but who are recalled or return from a leave of absence prior to the expiration of such six-month period will be permitted to complete the trial period requirement, although the six-month period elapses before such trial period is completed, provided the employee is not laid off before he/she completes his/her trial period employment. If such a layoff occurs before the employee bas completed his/her trial period and the six-month period has expired, said employee will be considered to have been terminated rather than laid off.

(d)

Extension of Trial Period: The Company shall have the right to extend the trial period to ninety (90) calendar days upon written notice to the Union and the employee prior to completion of the normal sixty (60) day trial period and shall retain the right to dismiss such employee during this extension period without being subject to review. In all instances where the trial period of a new employee is so extended, such employee's responsibility to become and remain a member of the Union in good standing as a condition of employment after sixty (60) days shall not be affected; and any benefits of the contract such as holiday pay and insurance coverage shall accrue to such- employee at the end of the initial sixty day period.

ARTICLE II

REPRESENTATION, GRIEVANCES AND ARBITRATION

Section 1. Stewards: The Company agrees to recognize the Chief Xxxxxxx and Shop Stewards selected by the Union in accordance with the Union rules and regulations. Such Chief Xxxxxxx and Stewards may act as a grievance committee at the request of, and with, the Business Manager of the Union, or his/her representative. The Union will notify the Company as to the identity of such Chief Xxxxxxx or Stewards and the Company shall not be required to recognize any other employees in the adjustment of complaints than those whose names are furnished to the Company as aforesaid. Such Chief Xxxxxxx and Stewards shall be granted a reasonable amount of time during working hours for the purpose of investigating and adjusting complaints, provided however, that such Chief Xxxxxxx and Stewards shall not leave their work without the permission of the immediate supervisor. Such permission, however, shall not be arbitrarily withheld. The Chief Xxxxxxx and Stewards shall be granted top seniority in their respective departments for the purpose of layoffs and recalls.

Section 2. Grievance Procedure: Any grievance arising during the life of this contract pertaining to wages, hours of work and working conditions of employees in the bargaining unit shall be subject to the procedures outlined below:

Either the Company or the Union or any employee (or Xxxxxxx, Chief Xxxxxxx or Business Representative in his/her behalf) may file grievances. Grievances of the Company or Union shall be presented directly to the other in writing. Grievances of the employees shall be reduced to writing on grievance forms provided by the Union. All answers by the Company shall likewise be in writing. Grievances will be handled as follows:

Step 1.

The employee, his/her Xxxxxxx or both, shall present the matter in dispute for settlement to his/her Supervisor. If the Supervisor's decision is not satisfactory or is not given within three (3) working days, Step 2 will be followed.

Step 2.

Such grievance shall then be presented by the Chief Xxxxxxx within three (3) working days after the Supervisor's unsatisfactory decision or failure to give a decision, whichever is applicable, to the Department Head. If the Department Head's decision is not satisfactory or is not given within three (3) working days, Step 3 will be followed.

Step 3.

Such grievance shall then be presented by the Business Representative of the Union within five (5) working days from receipt of the Department Head's unsatisfactory decision or failure to give a decision, whichever is applicable, to the Human Resources Director who shall give his/her answer not later than five (5) working days after the presentation of the grievance to him/her.

If the decision of the Human Resources Director is not satisfactory, such grievance will be discussed by the Business Manager of the Union and the Human Resources Director within five (5) working days after receipt by the Business Manager of the unsatisfactory answer by the Human Resources Director. In the event the Company and the Union are unable to settle any grievance under the procedures outlined above, the grievance shall be further processed under Section 3 - Arbitration - of this Article.

A grievance must be filed no later than five (5) working days after the occurrence of the event in which it is predicated, except in instances where the employee, or his/her Xxxxxxx or Chief Xxxxxxx, could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of the occurrence of the grievance. A failure to file a grievance within the period specified shall be deemed a waiver of such matter. In all cases of grievances relating to time not worked, the Company shall be responsible only for the actual loss sustained by an employee. Any settlement of any grievance between the Company and a Xxxxxxx, Chief Xxxxxxx, or Business Representative in Steps 1, 2, and 3 above will not be final until reviewed and approved by the Business Manager of the Union or his/her designated representative. The Company may consider the matter closed unless it has been otherwise notified by the Business Manager of the Union or his/her delegated representative within ten (10) days after notice bas been given him/her of the terms and conditions of the proposed grievance settlement.

An employee may be discharged or disciplined for cause. However, in case any employee, or the Union in his/her behalf, claims that he/she has been unjustifiably discharged or disciplined, a written complaint shall be filed within five (5) working days from the date of his/her discharge or discipline. Such complaint or grievance shall start under Step 2 above. Prior to the discharge or disciplining of an employee (except in cases of an employee under the influence of alcohol, drugs, etc., or theft or sabotage), the Chief Xxxxxxx shall be notified and given the opportunity to discuss the discharge or discipline. In case of discharge or discipline for being under the influence of alcohol, drugs, etc., or for theft or sabotage, the Chief Xxxxxxx shall be notified Immediately after the discharge.

Section 3. Arbitration: In the event that the grievance or complaint cannot be adjusted in any of the foregoing steps, the matter may, at the request of either party, be submitted for final and binding arbitration by an impartial arbitrator who shall be chosen by mutual agreement of the Company and the Union. In the event that the Company and the Union are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, the parties will request the Federal- Mediation and Conciliation Service to submit a panel of nine (9) qualified arbitrators. Both the Company and the Union shall have the right to strike four (4) names from the panel submitted to the parties. The remaining name on the panel shall then become the impartial arbitrator. In the consideration of discipline or discharge cases, the arbitrator shall have authority and jurisdiction to direct the payment of back pay for lost time resulting from discharge. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding upon all parties. However, an arbitrator shall have no power or authority to add to, alter, or modify the terms of this Agreement or any supplementary agreement made between the parties hereto. The expenses of arbitration (except those of the respective parties) shall be borne equally between the Company and the Union.

Section 4. No Strikes or Lockouts: There shall be no strikes, refusal to work or slowdown by the Union during the life of this Agreement, and there shall be no lockout on the part of the Company, unless either the Company or the Union should refuse to participate in arbitration proceedings or abide by the decision of an arbitrator, in accordance with Section 3 of this Article. Should there be such refusal by either the Company or the Union, this Section, at the option of the other party, shall be deemed inapplicable. There shall be no liability on the part of the Union for unauthorized strikes, stoppages or slowdowns, by any of the employees, but the Company shall have the right to discipline or discharge any employee who initiates, instigates, or participates in such unauthorized strikes, stoppages, or slowdowns. In consideration of this Agreement, the Union agrees not to xxx the Company, its officers or representatives, and the Company agrees not to xxx the Union, its officers, agents, or members in connection with any labor relations matters in any court of law or equity. The parties agree that the sole procedure for settlement of any disputes concerning labor relations matters between the Company and the Union shall be the grievance and arbitration procedure hereof.

ARTICLE III

HOURS OF WORK AND OVERTIME

Section 1. Regular Workweek: The regular workweek shall consist of forty (40) hours on a schedule of eight (8) hours per day Monday through Friday.

Section 2. No Staggering: The working day shall be continuous and employees shall not be compelled to lay off work for any period of time during the day and to resume work thereafter during the same day except in the case of lunch period or rest period.

Section 3. Changing Workweek: Any changes in the regular workweek shall be by mutual agreement between the Company and the Union. The Company reserves the right to change regularly scheduled starting and quitting hours under emergency conditions, in which event the time worked before normal starting time or after the normal quitting time will not be considered overtime work payable at one and one-half (1½) time the employee's straight-time rate unless more than eight (8) hours of work are performed in a day or unless an employee is prevented from performing eight (8) hours of work for reasons of the Company's convenience rather than for circumstances beyond the control of the Company.

Section 4. Overtime: All work performed in excess of eight (8) hours in any one (1) day, and all work performed on Saturday, and all work performed prior to the employee's regular hour for starting or after the employee's regular hour for quitting shall be considered overtime and shall be compensated for on the basis of one and one-half (11/2) times the employees straight time rate. All work performed on Sunday shall be compensated for at two (2) times the employees straight time rate.

Section 5. Shift Premiums: Work performed on the second (or afternoon) shift shall be paid for at the rate of ten (10%) percent more than the rate paid for similar work on the first (or day) shift. Work performed on the third (or night) shift shall be paid for at the rate of fifteen (15%) percent more than the rate paid for similar work on the first (or day) shift. In ascertaining the vacation or holiday benefits to which an employee may be entitled, the shift premium shall be included in the computations.

Section 6. Preference of Shifts and Overtime: When a preference of shifts is available on account of the occurrence of a vacancy, preference will be given on the basis of seniority and preference in the assignment of overtime should be based on the following formula:

(a)

Overtime on a job shall be assigned to those regularly doing that job in their respective departments pursuant to the principle of "line intact".

(b)

If additional help is required, employees with the greatest seniority in their classification in the department concerned and capable of doing the job in that department will be selected.

(c)

In the event no qualified employees wish the overtime assignment, it shall be assigned to and worked by the junior employee.

(d)

If necessary to go outside of that particular department, plant wide seniority will prevail if capable of doing the job.

(e)

In the event an employee is requested by the Company to work overtime, daily or Saturday, and he/she agrees to perform the overtime work but: (1) fails to notify the Company of his/her inability to report to work; or (ii) fails to give good cause explaining his/her inability to report for work; or (iii) fails to report for work, the employee shall not be permitted to work any overtime in any department for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days following the time the employee was requested to perform the overtime work.

Section 7. Lunch Period: There shall be an allowance of a lunch period near the middle of a work shift of thirty (30) consecutive minutes.

Section 8. Rest Periods: On each shift of the day there shall be a ten (10) minute rest period for each four (4) hours worked without deduction in pay.

Section 9. Reporting Pay: Employees who report for work in person and have not been previously notified not to report shall receive four (4) hours' work or the equivalent in pay, based upon their regular straight time hourly rate of pay, except in case of an emergency beyond the control of the Company.

Section 10. Call-Back Pay: An employee who has left the plant and is called back to work shall work and receive no less than four (4) hours of overtime pay at his/her regular straight time rate of pay, or the applicable straight time rate of pay for the job performed, whichever is greater.

Section 11. No Pyramiding: In no event shall overtime or premium pay provided for in this Article be pyramided or duplicated. Only the applicable provision yielding the largest amount of pay shall be applied and such payment shall satisfy the requirements of all other applicable provisions. This limitation, however, does not apply to shift premiums.

ARTICLE IV

SENIORITY

Section 1. Basis of Seniority: Each employee will have seniority standing in the plant equal to the employee's total length of service with the Company in the bargaining unit, dated from his/her first day of last continuous employment therein except as provided in Sections 3, 11, and 12 of this Article.

Section 2. Effect of Seniority: Except as provided in Section 6 of Article III and Section 7 of this Article, in all cases of increase or decrease of forces, transfer, promotion, or demotion of employees and preference in the selection of shifts, plant-wide seniority shall prevail, provided the employees possess sufficient skill and ability to satisfactorily perform the work to be done.

Where new equipment or added responsibilities are added to existing job classifications, the Company, in the event of a reduction in force, shall go strictly by seniority, regardless of the lack of experience of the senior employee. The Company shall train as needed to retain the senior employees.

Section 3. Seniority Lists: The Company will furnish to the Union immediately after the signing of this Agreement, a Seniority List and will post copies of such list on the bulletin boards in the plant. The list is to be revised at six (6) month intervals.

The Company will also furnish to the Union monthly a list of additions to and deletions from the Seniority List.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Seniority List is to be used to determine an employee's seniority as to layoffs, recalls, promotions and demotions. An employee shall have his/her seniority date computed from his/her original date of employment in the bargaining unit, in determining the employee's seniority in cases of layoffs, recalls, promotions and demotions.

(b)

The Seniority List is to be used to determine which bracket in the vacation schedule is applicable. Since an employee's vacation is based on his/her length of service with the Company, his/her original hiring date or date of rehire will determine the length of his/her vacation. The amount of vacation pay for any one (1) year may be adjusted to comply with the minimum hours provision in this Agreement, but such adjustment shall not affect a succeeding year or years.

(c)

Employees having the same seniority (hired on the same date) will, if necessary, be rated by the Company based on their attendance and tardiness record. The employee with the least number of day absences in the contract year would be rated as having the most seniority. If no seniority can be determined by attendance, then the employee with the least amount of tardiness in the contract year will be rated as having the most seniority.

Section 4. Temporary Layoffs: The parties recognize the necessity of temporary layoffs caused by shortage of materials or other reasons. It is, therefore, mutually agreed that such temporary layoffs may be made from time to time without regard to plant-wide seniority programs embodied in the contract. It is further agreed, however, that the number of hours each such employee may be laid off on such temporary layoff shall be recorded and no individual employee may be laid off on such temporary layoff without regard to seniority in excess of sixty (60) hours in each six month period of a contract year without any carry over from one six-month period to the next. When an individual employee would exceed that amount, then the Company is obligated to place him/her on another job in accordance with plant-wide seniority, provided such employee possesses sufficient ability, skill and experience to satisfactorily perform the work available.

Section 5. Temporary Transfers: For periods of work not exceeding eighty (80) hours the Company may transfer or assign employees temporarily, on a voluntary basis, but subject to plant seniority in the class from which they are being transferred, to work in job classifications in which they do not hold a regular job assignment, but have sufficient skill and ability to satisfactorily perform the work. Such employees shall be paid as follows:

(a)

If temporarily assigned to a job in a higher labor grade, the employee shall be paid, for the time involved, the next higher rate above his/her regular job rate in the progression scale for the higher grade.

(b)

If temporarily assigned to a job in a lower labor grade, the employee shall be paid his/her regular job rate.

Section 6. Option: Any employee who is subject to demotion or transfer because of material shortage, curtailment of work or similar reasons, may have the option of accepting such demotion or taking a layoff until there is sufficient work in his/her regular classification. An employee who accepts such demotion or transfer may exercise such option up to four (4) weeks after the transfer or demotion, but he/she must give four (4) days' notice to the Company before he/she may exercise the option to take a voluntary layoff under this provision.

Section 7. Demotion:

(a)

In the event of a reduction in force, or reduction in the work force of a job classification, all probationary employees in the classification shall first be removed from the classification or laid off. If further reduction is required;

(b)

Employees below the maximum rate in their respective classification shall be removed beginning with the lowest wage group in such classification based upon their plant seniority.

(c)

Employees effected by a reduction in force of job classifications five (5) or above first shall be offered a position which they bad previously held provided that they have sufficient seniority to displace an existing employee in the particular job classification and they have not previously "signed off" during the life of this agreement on that job classification. If an employee does not have the seniority to be transferred to a previously held job classification in a higher classification, the employee shall be offered a previously held job classification in a lower classification. If the employee does not have sufficient seniority for any previously held job classification, the employee shall be given an option to be transferred to a position in classification four (4) or below, provided that the employee has sufficient seniority to displace an individual currently working in the particular job classification. Employees not having sufficient seniority for a previously held job classification or any position in job classification four (4) or below shall be laid off in accordance with contractual requirements.

(d)

Employees working in job classification four (4) or below during a reduction in force in those classifications shall first be offered a previously held position if they have sufficient seniority to displace an individual from the particular job classification. Otherwise, the employee shall be transferred to another job classification within classifications four (4) or below for which the employee has sufficient seniority to displace an employee of lesser plant seniority. If the employee does not have seniority to displace any individual in job classification four (4) or below, the employee shall be laid off in accordance with contractual requirements.

(e)

All employees transferred during a reduction in force to another job classification which they have not previously performed shall be subject to a three (3) day qualifying period. During this time, the employee may elect to relinquish the position for any reason and/or "sign-off" the job classification. An employee who voluntarily elects to relinquish a position by signing off the job classification shall be laid off. During this three (3) day qualifying period the Company reserves the right to determine in its sole discretion whether an employee can adequately perform a particular job within the three (3) day qualifying period and the Company may then decide to lay off the employee. An employee who signed off voluntarily shall not be permitted to transfer to that job classification in the event of a future reduction in force for the life of this Agreement. An employee laid-off by the Company for being unable to adequately perform the job classification shall not be permitted to transfer to that job classification in the event of a future reduction in force until the employee provides that he/she possesses sufficient skill and ability to satisfactorily perform the work to be done.

(f)

All recalls during an increase in the work force shall be made in reverse order of seniority and pursuant to the applicable subsections of Article IV, Section 7 and 8. If there are vacancies in job classifications which they have previously performed, unless they have sufficient seniority to return to the classification from which they were originally removed as the need for additional employees in such job classifications presents itself, they will be given an opportunity to fill such vacancies. An employee with seniority may be recalled to Code 4 or lower even though he/she has not previously performed the work in such classification.

Section 8. Rights on Recall: Any employee being recalled after a layoff shall be assured at least two (2) straight weeks of employment at the regular workweek schedule. In the event the Company has recalled an employee with such assurance, and then because of conditions over which the Company has no control (such as, but not limited to, power failure inability to acquire machinery and equipment to replace worn out machinery and equipment, bona fide material shortages over which the Company has no control), the Company is unable to furnish such two (2) weeks of employment, the Company shall not be bound by this provision. In the event the Company does not assure such two (2) weeks of employment at the normal scheduled number of hours per week, the employee may elect to not return until such time as the Company does assure two (2) such consecutive weeks of employment at the normal scheduled number of hours per week without loss of seniority status. In the event the employee does elect not to return, that employee shall notify the Company by telegraphic message or registered mail or in person to that effect so that the Company may keep an accurate record of the employees who still wish to retain seniority status. In the event the employee fails to notify the Company of his/her election not to return as herein provided, and fails to report as specified under Section 13(h) of this Article IV, the employee shall be regarded as having resigned.

Section 9. Skill and Ability: Every employee who has completed his/her trial period shall, for the purpose of this Article, be deemed to have sufficient skill and ability to perform any common labor or common assembly job - Code 4 and below.

Section 10. Vacancies: In the event that a permanent job vacancy develops in a classification covered by this Agreement, other than common labor or assembly, a notice of such vacancy shall be bulletined for a period of two (2) working days.

The bulletin shall contain the job title, the maximum rate to be paid for the job, and a brief description of the job to be performed. Should additional personnel be required for a job within thirty (30) days of the time the job was last posted, the Company shall not be required to bulletin again such job until expiration of the thirty (30) day period. It is understood that within such thirty (30) day period the Company may take such steps as are necessary to fill such open jobs, provided no qualified employees have bid or are available. However, if an employee is not currently working on the days the open job is posted, but returns to work within the thirty (30) day period referred to above, he/she may apply for such posted job and will be considered for such posted job vacancies still remaining open. Employees with seniority who desire promotions to posted higher rated classifications shall, during the period that such vacancy is bulletined, file a form provided by their Supervisor for this purpose. If applicants with qualifications sufficient to perform the work satisfactorily have made application for the bulletined job, the qualified applicant with the greatest plant seniority shall be selected. It is intended that whenever possible promotions shall be made within the ranks and according to seniority.

It is understood that employees who have bid upon, have been accepted, and are working on the posted job will not be eligible to bid on an additional posted job for a period of three (3) months following the time the job for which they were accepted was posted.

The successful bidder for a posted job opening shall have the option to return to his/her former job within a period of two (2) weeks following the first day worked in the posted job opening. The Company shall have the option, within the same two (2) week period to return such successful employee to his/her former job in the event such employee cannot satisfactorily perform the work required to be done.
