The employee remains an employee of the original agency for allowances, privileges, rights, seniority, and benefits. (b) Reemployment. (1) An agency employee with a career or career-conditional appointment, or equivalent, who transfers with agency-head consent is entitled to return to the former position or one with like seniority, status, and pay if (A) separated from the Foundation for a reason other than misconduct, neglect of duty, or malfeasance and (B) applying within 90 days after separation. (2) The agency must reemploy a qualifying employee within 30 days after application, with at least the basic-pay rate the employee would have had without transferring. (c) Hiring. No more than 30 Foundation employees may be appointed, paid, or removed without regard to civil-service laws and regulations. (d) Pay.

applies for reemployment not later than 90 days after the date of separation from the Foundation.
An employee who satisfies paragraph (1) is entitled to be reemployed (in accordance with such paragraph) within 30 days after applying for reemployment and, on reemployment, is entitled to at least the rate of basic pay to which such employee would have been entitled had such employee never transferred.
Of persons employed by the Foundation, no more than 30 persons may be appointed, compensated, or removed without regard to the civil service laws and regulations.
