FACILITY ENTRY & ACCESS FLOW MAP

Each branch location will create a unique map designed to indicate the process of receiving customers, vendors and employees into their location. The main focus is to control the access into each branch and to provide an efficient flow of traffic. In addition, tracking of visitors in and out of the facility is a requirement.

Below is the process flow for Cinelease Headquarters.

FROM THE CUSTOMER

EMPLOYEES RECEIVING INCOMING EQUIPMENT MUST WEAR THE PROPER PPE AT ALL TIMES.

Cinelease will use COVID-19 operating practices for receiving and outgoing of equipment at its branch facilities. Branch facility layouts will dictate the processing flow of incoming and outgoing staging areas for receiving, disinfecting and sending out equipment to customers. As CDC guidelines change, measures and procedures will be revised and implemented nationwide.

There will be a designated area at the front gate to guide the customer into the facility.

RECEIVING EQUIPMENT FROM CUSTOMERS OR VENDORS

EQUIPMENT RETURNS BACK INTO FACILITY WAREHOUSE

• The customer will be directed to a staging area and then to a controlled drop off area, at which time equipment will be off loaded into the disinfecting zone. • If non-employees must enter the drop off zone to review order, proper PPE must be worn and physical distancing must be practiced. A strict no-contact rule must be followed. If crew employees do not have the proper PPE, Cinelease will provide the appropriate PPE to them. • Crew must only work in their designated drop off zone and are not allowed to wander around the rental facility. • Complete incoming paperwork and if customer is present inform customer of any damage or missing items. If customer is not present, complete paperwork and forward to Rental Department for further processing. • All return paperwork must be digitized to eliminate additional touch points both with paper and writing utensils. • Equipment will go through a thorough sanitizing process.

Once the equipment has been properly sanitized, the team leader and associates will return the equipment into the proper areas within the warehouse, by the direction of the Shop Foreman.

OUTGOING EQUIPMENT

EMPLOYEES RECEIVING OUTGOING EQUIPMENT MUST WEAR THE PROPER PPE AT ALL TIMES.

OUTGOING EQUIPMENT TO THE CUSTOMERS OR VENDORS

Warehouse team leaders will follow instructions from the shop supervisor for all deliveries to production and load outs occurring within the warehouse facility. Shop supervisors and warehouse team leaders will be charged with the responsibility of communicating logistics and implementing physical distancing and PPE.

DELIVERIES TO PRODUCTION CUSTOMERS OR SUB RENTAL VENDORS

• Hand sanitizing to occur before and after processing incoming and outgoing equipment. • Limit warehouse teams to 2 members or less while processing rental orders. • Disinfecting equipment protocols will be followed. Once sanitization has been complete, shrink wrap and sanitized sticker should be included on equipment order. • Using appropriate tracking measures equipment will be transferred to the assigned delivery or production vehicle.

LOAD OUTS WITHIN FACILITY WAREHOUSE

• When crew members are present during the load out process within the facility, physical distancing and

PPE protocols will be communicated and monitored by the Shop Foreman. • The Shop Foreman will communicate when the production crew can safely test and load equipment. • Outgoing paperwork should be signed and processed electronically with proper sanitation techniques.
