Agency Shop It is mutually agreed by the parties that this Unit is an agency shop Unit. It is the intent of the parties that the agency shop provisions in the Memorandum of Understanding comply with applicable state law (Government Code Section 3502.5).
Agency Cross Transactions From time to time, the Advisor or brokers or dealers affiliated with it may find themselves in a position to buy for certain of their brokerage clients (each an "Account") securities which the Advisor's investment advisory clients wish to sell, and to sell for certain of their brokerage clients securities which advisory clients wish to buy. Where one of the parties is an advisory client, the Advisor or the affiliated broker or dealer cannot participate in this type of transaction (known as a cross transaction) on behalf of an advisory client and retain commissions from one or both parties to the transaction without the advisory client's consent. This is because in a situation where the Advisor is making the investment decision (as opposed to a brokerage client who makes his own investment decisions), and the Advisor or an affiliate is receiving commissions from both sides of the transaction, there is a potential conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities on the Advisor's part regarding the advisory client. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted a rule under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, which permits the Advisor or its affiliates to participate on behalf of an Account in agency cross transactions if the advisory client has given written consent in advance. By execution of this Agreement, the Trust authorizes the Advisor or its affiliates to participate in agency cross transactions involving an Account. The Trust may revoke its consent at any time by written notice to the Advisor.
Agency Service Fee As a condition of employment during the term of this Agreement, every member of the bargaining unit who is not also a member of the Association shall pay or by payroll deduction shall have paid to the said Association an agency service fee that shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the then current rate of dues payable by a member of the said Association; provided, however, that no such payment or deduction shall include any amount that represents a cost not related by the provisions of Section 3 of Article IX of the Rules and Regulations Relating to the Administration of Chapter 150E of the General Laws as such rules and regulations have been promulgated, and as they may be amended from time to time by the Department of Labor Relations (DLR). Such fee so required to be paid shall be payable on or after the thirtieth (30th) day next following the beginning of employment of such member of the bargaining unit or on or after the thirtieth (30th) day next following the effective date of this Agreement, whichever shall be later. Such fee may be paid by payroll deduction if so authorized pursuant to an Agency Service Fee Deduction Authorization; provided, however, that such authorization shall be deemed to have effect only with respect to such sum as is herein provided. Any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, every unit member who shall have failed to fulfill the condition of employment as is herein prescribed shall be subject to immediate dismissal and shall be so dismissed by the Employer with effect no later than the end of the semester during which the Employer shall have acted to dismiss the unit member in accordance with the provisions of this Article; provided, however, that such dismissal shall be effected by notice promptly issued by the Employer or its designee to such unit member after the Association shall have notified the President that such unit member has not fulfilled the condition herein prescribed. The said notice shall be sent by registered mail, return receipt requested, and shall give such unit member fourteen (14) days from the date of its receipt to fulfill the said condition. Within the said fourteen (14) days, the Employer or its designees shall grant such unit member such opportunity to respond to the said notice as the Employer may from time to time prescribe for the purposes of this provision. Whenever such unit member shall not have fulfilled the condition herein prescribed within the said fourteen (14) days, the Employer shall act to dismiss the unit member at its meeting next following the expiration of the said fourteen (14) days; provided, however, that the Employer need not so act if such unit member fulfills the said condition prior to the date of such meeting. The Association shall reimburse the Employer for any expenses incurred as a result of being ordered to reinstate an employee terminated at the request of the Association for not paying the agency fee. The Association shall intervene in and defend any administrative or court litigation with respect to any unit member's refusal or failure to pay the agency service fee, including, but not limited to, actions or claims arising from an employee's termination or dismissal. In such litigation, the Employer shall have no obligation to defend the Association and the Association shall indemnify and hold the Employer harmless from any loss occasioned by such litigation. Any unit member who pays an agency service fee may on request obtain a rebate of part of that unit member’s agency service fee in accordance with General Laws, Chapter 150E, Section 12, and Association procedures.
