				while the employee is in a particular salary grade.
(c) In no case may an employee's salary
				exceed the job rate of the salary grade by virtue of a performance advancement
				payment. However, that portion of the advancement which would bring the
				employee's salary up to the job rate shall be paid as an advancement.
(d) Part-time employees who are eligible for
				a performance advancement will be paid on a pro rata basis proportionate to the
				fractional equivalent of the time being worked.
(e) Special provisions for employees who have

(2) Service in a lower grade in a position
				which has been reallocated is creditable toward the service requirement in the
				grade to which the position has been reallocated for any performance

(3) Employees who are eligible for a
				performance advancement in a lower grade who, on or after April 1, 1979, are
				promoted or appointed to a higher grade before receiving their next advancement
				in the lower grade and who have not received a performance advancement in the
				higher grade are entitled to a reconstructed promotion salary reflecting the
				performance advancement which they would have received in the lower grade. Such
				reconstructed promotion salary shall be effective on the date that the
				performance advancement would have been paid in the lower grade.
