DIRECT DEPOSIT PROGRAM INFORMATION

When you enroll in our direct deposit program the process will take approximately one or
two payroll cycles after receipt before it will be effective. During this period you will
continue to receive a physical check on the dates payroll is issued at your location.

Please send voided checks only or ACH/Direct Deposit authorization forms from your
financial institution- no deposits slips. Some banks use a different routing number on your
deposit slips than on your checks. So, please, only attach a check to the request form.

Your name must be on the check as owner/signer of the account. We cannot deposit your
paycheck into an account that is not in your name. If it is a joint account your name must
appear on the checks and can only deposit your payroll to a single account.

If it is a new account and you only have counter checks or if it is a savings account with
no checks then we can accept a letter or ACH/Direct Deposit authorization from your bank.
The letter/authorization must have the bank's routing number and your account number
and must state that you are the owner/signer on the account.

Anytime you want to change your direct deposit to another bank account or stop your
direct deposit, you must fill out a new form and give to the GM or the manager responsible
for Accounting at your hotel. For hotels with a HR Department bring your form to your HR
Office. Any changes to your direct deposit will take at least 15 business days, so please,
make sure you send the form to us 15 days prior to your next pay day.

Each pay period you will receive a notice of your deposit.

Again, we are pleased to provide you with this option and hope that you will enjoy the
convenience of your direct deposit.

CASH HANDLING RESPONSIBILITY AGREEMENT
(To be completed by all associates with cash handling responsibilities.)

As an associate of this hotel, I do hereby recognize, understand and agree that in my


position with the hotel, I am in a position where I am responsible for and will handle money
belonging to the guests of the hotel and the hotel. I fully recognize, the money handled by
me is my sole and only responsibility and, as such, I do hereby agree that as a condition of
my association, which I desire to have, I will be personally responsible for any shortages
occurring in the money which I handle and which is under my control and jurisdiction. I will
be responsible to count the funds turned over to me at the start of my work shift each day,
and to count the monies at the end of my work shift each day and I will be responsible to
correctly account for all of the funds. If there is any shortage, I understand and agree that I
will be responsible within the terms of this letter form agreement to pay personally for any
of those shortages except as limited by any state law (CA, CO, LA, NJ, TX).

I understand that no payment will be made from my funds that would take my income
below minimum wage. Other than that, I understand I will be responsible for any shortage
of funds under my control which amount to more than five dollars ($5.00). I further
understand and recognize that I will be given forty-eight (48) hours after the conclusion of
my work shift and the discovery of the shortage within which to find the shortage, before I
will be called upon to pay such shortage.

I agree to pay the shortage after the forty-eight (48) hour period up to the amount to allow
me to draw minimum wage, and do hereby specifically authorize my employer to withhold
any such shortage from any payroll check or other funds owed to me or to become owed to
me as a result of my employment.

THIRD PARTY LIQUOR LIABILITY POLICY
(To be completed by all managers and associates with liquor serving duties.)

Third party liquor liability, simply stated, means that servers and/or serving establishments
may be held liable to those injured in drunk driving incidents.

POLICY

1. An intoxicated customer will be told by the server (if no manager is available): “Sir (or
Miss/Madam), your safety is our concern, we feel that you’ve had enough to drink and
we can not serve you another. Please accept a complimentary non-alcoholic beverage
or something to eat. In addition, we will be happy to provide you with a hotel room, call
you a cab or if you live nearby call a friend of yours to come pick you up. If you refuse
our help and try to leave while still under the influence of alcohol we will immediately
call the police.”

2. If there is a Manager (MOD, General Manager or Restaurant Manager) available,


he/she can be summoned to the lounge to talk to the server who will have to inform the
intoxicated customer of the policy stated in #1 above. Remember, just because no
manager is available does not mean that you are to ignore hotel policy. The policy must
be stated orally by management or server.

3. If an intoxicated customer refuses all offers of help and insists on driving himself/herself
in a vehicle, you must immediately call the police. The omission of this step may
expose you and/or the hotel to a law suit of huge proportion if the drunk driver has an
accident.

The key to this policy is to STOP THEM FROM DRIVING. Unfortunately, the misinformed
believe they have fulfilled their obligation when they refuse to serve an intoxicated
customer. The truth is that the liability comes from serving a drunk who, in driving, causes
injury or death to others. IT IS THE FAILURE TO STOP THE DRUNK FROM DRIVING
THAT CREATES THE EXPOSURE TO LIABILITY.
