Here it is...sorry wrong section before looks like we still get the first class seat with some exceptions...

C.4.b. When part of an augmented flight crew consisting of three pilots:

C.4.b.(1) A pilot shall neither be scheduled to remain on duty for more than 15 hours, nor required to remain on duty in excess of 16 hours, and

C.4.b.(2) A pilot shall not be scheduled to perform international flying on more than three flights in a duty period, and

C.4.b.(3) A pilot who has duty aloft of 20 hours or more during any 48 consecutive hours, or 24 hours or more during any 72 consecutive hours, shall be given at least 18 hours free from all duty at the completion of the duty period in which he exceeded the applicable restriction.

C.4.b.(4) The following minimum rest rules shall apply to pilots on trips where no flight had an augmented crew of more than three pilots:

C.4.b.(4)(a) Regular pilot. Upon return to his base from a trip where no flight had an augmented crew of more than three pilots, a regular pilot shall be given a rest period of at least 15:45.

C.4.b.(4)(b) Reserve pilot.

C.4.b.(4)(b)1' General rule. Upon return to his base from a trip where no flight had an augmented crew of more than three pilots, a reserve pilot shall be given a rest period that is at least twice the total number of his hours of duty aloft since his last rest period at his base, subject to a maximum of 36:00 and subject to the election to reduce rest set forth in Section 12 C.4.b.(4)(b)2'
.
C.4.b.(4)(b)2' Election to reduce rest. At the reserve pilot’s option, such rest may be reduced anytime after the assignment or award is made to the trip which gives rise to such a rest period, to the minimum rest of 15:45. However, to ensure his position on the reserve assignment list, a reserve pilot must make this election to reduce his rest by notifying Crew Scheduling no later than 23:59 local base time on the day prior to the last day of the trip hour period giving rise to the rest period.

C.4.b.(4)(b)3' Change of election to reduce rest. A reserve pilot may change an earlier election to reduce his rest by notifying Crew Scheduling no later than 23:59 local base time (i.e. prior to the start of the Trip Filling Period) on the day prior to the last day of the trip hour period giving rise to the rest period. However, no such change will be available to a reserve pilot to whom a trip assignment has already been made if such change would conflict with the trip assignment.
C.4.c. A pilot shall not be required to remain on duty in excess of 20 hours when part of an augmented flight crew consisting of four or more pilots.

Section 12 – Hours of Service July 31, 2006
C.4.d. When a pilot’s on-duty period is broken at an unscheduled en route stop, the minimum rest period shall be 9:30 release to report.

C.4.e. The minimum actual rest period to break an on-duty period, except as provided in Section 12 C.4.d. 􀀴, shall be 13:30 release to report.

C.4.f. A pilot moving from an augmented flight crew to a non-augmented flight crew, or vice versa, shall be given an intervening rest period of at least 15:45 release to report.

C.4.g. A pilot moving from one size of augmented flight crew to another size of augmented flight crew shall be given an intervening rest period of at least that which would have been required had the pilot’s next scheduled duty period remained on the same size of augmented flight crew.

C.4.h. Upon his return to his base from a trip, a pilot shall be given a rest period that is at least twice the total number of his hours of duty aloft since his last rest period at his base, except as provided in Section 12 C.4.b.(4).

C.4.i. The Company shall provide comfortable and quiet sleeping quarters, including a separate bunk or bed, for the use of each crewmember while not on flight deck duty. A reclining seat, whether in the cockpit or cabin, will not satisfy the requirements of this provision.

EXCEPTION 1: With respect to an augmented flight crew, the Company shall not be required to provide such sleeping quarters to a pilot who is deadheading MSP-ORD, ORD-MSP, NYC-DTW, DTW-NYC, MSP-DTW, or DTW-MSP, in order to position for a transpacific flight or in order to return to his base after a transpacific flight.

EXCEPTION 2: With respect to an augmented three pilot flight crew on an international flight with a scheduled block time of nine hours or less, on a narrowbody aircraft which is not equipped with a crew bunk(s) the Company may utilize a dedicated first class (or equivalent) seat for a pilot in place of sleeping quarters. Such dedicated seat shall be removed from passenger sales. Agents shall be notified of the prohibition against selling such dedicated seat and that no pilot of such augmented flight shall be required or requested to relinquish such seat. With respect to an augmented three pilot flight crew on a narrowbody aircraft flight between the Continental United States and Mexico, the Caribbean area, the Bahamas or Bermuda, the following shall also apply:

(i) The on-duty period will not be scheduled to commence prior to 0500 (local time) or to terminate later than 2359 (local time);

(ii) All other applicable on-duty limitations and rest provisions of Section 12 of the Agreement will apply. 12-19

EXCEPTION 3: On augmented flights, Operating Experience (OE) and line checks may be conducted, provided that the OE instructor and the OE pilot and line check airman, if they cannot be accommodated in the existing crew bunks, shall have a dedicated first class seat(s) for the flight, or, if there is no first class section on the aircraft, then a world business class seat(s), or its equivalent. Such seat(s) shall be removed from passenger sales. Agents shall be notified, via bulletin, training and a provision in the appropriate agent manual, of the prohibition against selling such dedicated seat(s) and that no pilot of such augmented flight shall be required or requested to relinquish such seat(s).
