Travel Time, Reimbursable Expenses, and Commuting in a Company Vehicle

Given the nature of the business at National EWP, and the various classes of employees, we cannot cover every possible
scenario for travel. To the extent you have questions or concerns, please address those to Employee Services. Under no
circumstances will an employee be reimbursed for Travel that is not addressed herein, without his/her Supervisor
approval. Where at all possible, any scenario not covered herein must be pre-authorized.

The Company follows all applicable state and federal law with respect to its Travel Policy. The Company reserves the right
to exercise discretion, according to applicable state law, and to modify this policy at any time. To the extent this Policy
conflicts with state or federal law, the remaining portions stay in effect.

At various times while traveling the employee could be paid his normal hourly wage. At other times employees will be
paid a travel rate that is typically lower than the employee's normal hourly wage but will meet state and federal minimum
wage requirements. See below for travel time and compensation scenarios. Rates are subject to applicable state, federal
and contract wage an hour requirements and will be adjusted in accordance with those if necessary.

• Commute time is defined as the traveling that occurs from your place of residence to the job site and vice versa.
Thus, job assignments that do not involve overnight stays are within the employee's "reasonable commuting"
distances are not compensable. Field employees are responsible for reporting to these job assignments and the
Company does not provide mileage reimbursement or travel coordination. Employees are not paid for the time
spent commuting to job sites that do not involve an overnight stay.
• Travel that takes place after the Employee has met with others to travel to a site is not compensable. This includes
travel time from the hotel to the job site.
• Travel that takes place during your normal work hours where you travel from one site to the other or run errands
for a job, including mobilization and demobilization is compensable at the employee's normal hourly wage and
the employee should record this time on their timesheets.
• An employee may also travel after hours on a work day in order to relocate to a new work location. Employees
will be paid the company travel rate for travel time to move to a new work location if they have already worked
on a jobsite that same day. Employees must record this travel time on their timesheets and must indicate the
amount of time spent traveling.
• Employees who transport materials where driving is part of their normal job description (truck drivers) will be paid
their normal hourly wage while they conduct their normal job duties.
• When overnight travel is required, the Company may pay for transportation on a common carrier i.e., plane, bus
or vehicle. Travel time associated with this type of overnight stay travel is compensated as follows:

California Residents or those required to work inside California state lines:
Per California state law - All travel time, after employee arrives at airport to fly out of town and/or travel time that is
associated with an overnight stay inside of California, is compensable and should be reported on timesheets for employees
who reside or work in California. The compensation rate for this type of travel is the company travel rate for travel time
associated with an overnight stay.

Non-California Residents or those working outside of California state lines:
Per Federal law - Travel time associated with an overnight stay where the company has paid for your transportation on a
common carrier, the travel time takes before or after the assigned work rotation and/or it takes place on non-working
days is not compensable.

There will be no wage paid for this type of travel time for Non-California residents or those working outside of California
and they should not report this travel time on their timesheets.

Regardless of residency or what state the employee is working in; the employee is responsible for providing transportation
between his/her legal place of residence and the airport and vice versa. Travel time from home to the airport and from
the airport to home is not compensable. This is considered the employee's normal commute. This time should not be
recorded on the employee's timesheet.
