This occurs at the Exposition Stage of the story.
Jason is being told a key piece of information that will play a central role in the story. It introduces not only Jason and Mr. Manaby, but something that will drive future events, the 5:00 policy.

I think it is a noun phrase, and not appositive.
Present participle would be 'clipping'. Perfect participle would be 'having clipped'. Therefore, the only option left is 'past participle'.
