Problem Description:  Using CFExchangeCalendar, action="create", to create recurring events based on rules

Steps to Reproduce:
Event Struct Sample
event.AllDayEvent = 0 
event.Categories = My Calendar 
event.EndTime	 = Tuesday, February 7, 2017 5:00:00 PM PST 
event.IsRecurring = 1 
event.Location = 	BSB
event.Message = recurring 
event.RecurrenceCount = 5 
event.RecurrenceDay = TUE 
event.RecurrenceFrequency = 1 
event.RecurrenceType = MONTHLY 
event.RecurrenceWeek = first 
event.Reminder = 0 
event.StartTime = Tuesday, February 7, 2017 4:00:00 PM PST 
event.Subject = Event occurs every month on the 1st Tuesday for 4 times 

Actual Result:
Event gets created with these rules
Start: 12:00AM Monrovia, Reykjavik
End: 1:00AM Monrovia, Reykjavik
Duration: 1 hour
Recurrence Pattern: Monthly, first Tuesday of every 1 month
Range of recurrence: 
Start: Tue 2/7/207 
End after: 5 occurences

Events shows up on a 1st Monday 4-5pm instead of a 1st Tuesday, 
example is Feb 6, 2017 4-5pm PST and Mar 6, 2017 4-5pm PST

Expected Result:
Event gets created with these rules
Start: 4:00PM Pacific Time (US & Canada)
End: 5:00PM Pacific Time (US & Canada)
Duration: 1 hour
Recurrence Pattern: Monthly, first Tuesday of every 1 month
Range of recurrence: 
Start: Tue 2/7/207 
End after: 5 occurences
Event should have been created
1st Tuesday, 4-5pm PST
example is Feb 7, 2017 4-5pm PST and Mar 7, 2017 4-5pm PST

our product changes are done(adding timezone parameter) but it needs fix in EWS library when the timezone of CF server and exchange servers are in diffrent timezone.

How should I pass the timezone parameter to my event structure? Is this fix in place in CF10? Is there an update we need to do to reflect bug fix, if so which update version?

Which CF versions would have this issue already fixed? How should I pass the timezone parameter to my event structure?
