Applicant Statement

Please read carefully the following before signing below:

I certify that the information contained in any employment applications I provided is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I understand that any misrepresentation, falsification, or material omission of information on my application may result in my failure to receive an offer or, if I am hired, my immediate dismissal from employment. I agree that, if hired, I will provide proof of my identity and legal authority to work in the United States as required by Federal law.

I hereby authorize the Company to retain my information and contact me with potential job opportunities that match my profile. I understand and agree that, if hired by Company, I will conform to the Company’s rules and regulations. I further agree that my employment and compensation can be terminated at will, with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time, at the option of either Company or myself.

I understand that no Company manager or representative other than its president has any authority to enter into any agreement for employment for any specified time period, or to make any express or implied agreement contrary to the foregoing. Further, Company’s president may not alter the at-will nature of the employment relationship or enter into any employment agreement for a specified time period, unless both the president and I or my authorized representative have signed a written agreement that clearly and expressly specifies the intent to do so. I agree that this shall constitute a final and fully binding integrated agreement with respect to the at-will nature of my employment relationship and that there are no oral or collateral agreements regarding this issue.

I hereby authorize, to the extent allowed by applicable federal state and local laws, the Company to conduct its own investigation of my references, employment history and education.

I understand that employment with Company is contingent upon my passing a pre-employment post offer drug screen.

I understand that, unless otherwise provided by a written employment agreement, I will be required to sign a Mutual Binding Arbitration Agreement and that the Arbitration Agreement requires that any dispute(s) related to my employment be resolved by binding arbitration, except those specifically excluded by the Arbitration Agreement. If I refuse to sign the Arbitration Agreement, I will not be offered employment or my conditional employment will be terminated.

I understand and acknowledge that if Company hires me that I am not to use or disclose in the performance of my duties for Company, any document or information belonging to or originating from any prior employer or relating to any prior employer’s business, including without limitation, any prior employer’s confidential information, intellectual property, and/or trade secrets (collectively “Prior Employer Information”). I further understand and agree that I am not to bring any Prior Employer Information with me to Company’s worksite and/or offices or upload any Prior Employer Information on a Company network or system, nor should I retain such Prior Employer Information after my current employment ends. I acknowledge and agree that I will not perform any services for Company until I have completely severed my employment relationship with my current employer (after the last day on the payroll).

I represent and warrant that I know of no reason that I cannot legally enter into an employment relationship with Company. Specifically, I represent and warrant that I am either a) not a party to any agreement with a former employer containing any post-employment restrictions, non-competition provisions or solicitation restrictions or any other restrictive covenants (collectively, “restrictive covenants”) or b) a party to an agreement containing restrictive covenants with respect to the rendition of any personal services but that the restrictive covenants will not impact or restrict my employment by or performance of services for Company. I further represent and warrant that, if I am a party to an agreement containing any restrictive covenants, I will honor and abide by the restrictive covenants, to the extent such covenants are valid and enforceable under controlling law.

I further agree that if hired by Company that I will not disclose, use, copy or take away any confidential, proprietary or trade secret information belonging to Company, except as required in the ordinary course of my employment for the benefit of Company.
