• On March 31st, AZ reduced salaries of the following employees:– Bob $40,000– Emily $90,000– Grace $40,000
• On April 1st, Carla was let go as a result of the economic crisis• Payroll period starts April 16th (which is also the date loan was funded so no alternative payroll

employees who work fewer hours may be used at the election of the Borrower.

FOR TABLES 1 & 2 (cont’d):• Step 3: For Table 1, Determine Wage Reduction:
– A) Calculate average annual salary during covered period– B) Calculate average annual salary for Q1– C) Determine percentage of reduction– D) If more than 25% reduction:
• Calculate the excess of the 25% reduction• Annualize the amount (divide by 52 and multiply by 8)

Salary/Hourly Wage Reduction Safe Harbor
Salary/Hourly Wage Reduction Safe Harbor applies if both:• The average annual pay between February 15, 2020 and April
26, 2020 is greater than the average annual pay as of February 15, 2020, and
• The average annual pay as of June 30, 2020 is greater than the average annual pay as of February 15, 2020
-
24
Case Study
TO COMPUTE THE WAGE REDUCTION SAFE HARBOR:• Step 1: Determine average annual salary as of February 15th
• Step 2: Determine average annual salary for the period from February 15th through April 26th
• Step 3: If Step 2 is greater than Step 1, the safe harbor does not apply• Step 4: Determine average annual salary as of June 30th
If Step 4 is NOT equal to or greater than Step 1, the safe harbor does not apply
Wage Reduction Safe Harbor
Wage Reduction Safe Harbor for Bob:Step 1: Salary 2/15/2020 60,000
Step 2: Average Salary for 2/15 - 4/26:Salary 2/15 - 3/15 60,000 * Salary 3/16 - 4/26 40,000 **Average salary 52,000
* assume 6 weeks for 2/15 - 3/31
** assume 4 weeks for 4/1 - 4/26
Step 4: Salary 6/30/2020 40,000
Because Step 4 is not equal to or greater than Step 1, the safe harbor does not apply.

FTE Reduction Exception
An FTE Reduction Exception applies if the borrower: • Made a good-faith, written offer to rehire an employee
during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period which was rejected by the employee; and
• Any employees who during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period:– (a) were fired for cause, – (b) voluntarily resigned, or – (c) voluntarily requested and received a reduction of their hours.

FTE Reduction Safe Harbor
The FTE Reduction Safe Harbor applies if both of the following conditions are met: 1. the Borrower reduced its FTE employee levels in the period
beginning February 15, 2020, and ending April 26, 2020; and
2. the Borrower then restored its FTE employee levels by not later than June 30, 2020 to its FTE employee levels in the Borrower’s pay period that included February 15, 2020.
-
27
Case Study
TO COMPUTE THE FTE REDUCTION SAFE HARBOR:• Step 1: Determine average FTE between February 15th and April 26th• Step 2: Determine total FTE in pay period that covers February 15th• Step 3: If Step 2 is NOT greater or equal to than Step 1, the safe harbor does not apply• Step 4: Determine total FTE as of June 30thIf Step 4 is NOT equal to or greater than Step 3, the safe harbor does not apply
FTE Reduction Safe Harbor
FTE Reduction Safe Harbor:
Step 1: Average FTE for 2/15 - 4/26:FTE 2/15/20 - 3/31/20 6.3 * FTEs 4/1/20 - 4/26/20 5.3 **Average FTE for period 5.9
* assume 6 weeks for 2/15 - 3/31
** assume 4 weeks for 4/1 - 4/26
Step 2: Total FTE for pay period that includes 2/15 6.3
Step 4: Total FTE on 6/30 6.3
Because Step 4 is equal to Step 3, the FTE Safe Harbor applies
