days of signing and accepting this contingent offer of employment.

I further understand that if I fail to complete the test within two (2) business days, or if I
test “positive”* on the initial drug screen and if such positive test is confirmed by a second
analysis, I will have my offer of employment withdrawn, and will not be again considered
for employment in less than a six (6) month period, and I accept any such employment
decision made by The Company. If this pre-employment drug screen is confirmed positive,
I fully release The Company its officers, employees, agents, and representatives, from any
and all liability arising from the drug/controlled substance test, or in any manner related to
my application for or employment with the Company.

I understand that every good faith effort will be made to keep the results of the
drug/controlled substance screen confidential, and that the Company will endeavor to
