The costs vary depending upon the specific test or report ordered and the charges will be agreed upon prior to ordering the tests and/or reports. 13. If you have an Express associate on an assignment and determine you would like to hire the associate onto your payroll (a "Conversion"), you may do so by paying a Conversion fee of up to 30% of the associate's expected annual salary, provided all invoices are current. 14. You agree, for a period of 180 days from the date of introduction or last date on assignment, whichever is later, not to hire directly or use Express associates through another staffing firm, other than through a Conversion as referenced above, without paying a liquidation fee of 30% of the Express associate's expected annual compensation, unless otherwise agreed to by Us in writing.
