Each bargaining unit member who, as of October 1, fall semester and/or March 1, spring semester, or as a result of late start courses, meets the conditions of Association membership defined in Article I, 1.1 shall, as a condition of employment, join the Adjunct Faculty Association or pay a fair share fee to the Association equivalent to the amount of dues uniformly required of members of the Association, including local, state and national dues. Following the fifth pay period of the Fall and Spring semesters (Payrolls 5 and 15), the Administration will provide the Association a list of all adjunct and part-time faculty who have received teaching assignments. The Association will prepare a list of adjunct and part-time faculty to be given to the College who have either elected to have full (or local only) union dues and fair share fees deducted from their pay. The Adjunct Faculty Association President shall then submit to the Administration a list of adjunct faculty members who meet the conditions of Association membership due to courses that begin prior to Payroll 5 of the fall semester or Payroll 15 of the spring semester. The Association shall notify the Administration as soon as possible of the names of those adjunct faculty members who meet the conditions of Association membership due to late starting courses. B. The Board shall deduct the fair share fee from the wages of the non-member. C. Such fee shall be paid to the Association by the Board no later than ten (10) days following deduction. D. In the event of any legal action against the Employer brought in a court or administrative agency because of its compliance with this Article, the Association agrees to defend such action, at its own expense and through its own counsel, provided: 1. The Employer gives prompt notice of such action in writing to the Association and permits the Association intervention as a party if it so desires, and 2. The Employer gives full and complete cooperation to the Association and its counsel in securing and giving evidence, obtaining witnesses and making relevant information available at both trial and all appellate levels. E. The Association agrees that in any action so defended, it will indemnify and hold harmless the Employer from any liability for damages and costs imposed by a final judgment of a court or administrative agency as a direct consequence of the Employer’s non-negligent compliance with this Article. It is expressly understood that this hold harmless provision will not apply to any claim, demand, suit or other form of liability which may arise as a result of any type of willful misconduct by the Board or the Board’s imperfect execution of the obligations imposed upon it by this Article. F. The Association shall certify to the Board the amount of the annual fair share fee, not to exceed the dues uniformly required of members of the Association. The Association acknowledges its obligation to provide non-members with the basis for the calculation of the fair share fee. The Association shall further certify to the Board that “Notice of Fair Share” has been posted in accordance with IELRB rules and regulations. No payroll deduction of fair share fees shall be made until at least fourteen (14) days after such certification. Such fair share payments shall be deducted by the Board on a pro-rata basis from the earnings of the non- members on the same time schedule as Association dues and be paid to the Association. The amount certified by the Association shall not include any fees for contributions related to the election or support of any candidate for political office. Nothing in this Section shall preclude the non-member from making voluntary political contributions in conjunction with his or her fair share payment. G. This fair share agreement shall safeguard the right of non-association of employees based upon bona fide religious tenets or teaching of a church or religious body of which such employees are members or a belief sincerely held with the strength of traditional religious views. Such employees may be required to pay an amount equal to their fair share under this Agreement to a non-religious charitable organization mutually agreed upon by the employee affected and the Association, or if no mutual agreement is reached, from an approved list of charitable organizations established by the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board. H. Non-members who object to the amount of the fair share fee have the right to file objections with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board.
Fair Share Fee 1. The Board agrees to automatic payroll deduction, as a condition of employment, of a fair share fee amount as designated by the Association from all bargaining unit members who elect not to become members of the Association, or who elect not to remain members. 2. The Treasurer of the Board shall, upon notification from the Association that a member has terminated membership, commence the check-off of the fair share fee with respect to the former member, and the amount of the fee yet to be deducted shall be the annual membership dues less the amount previously paid through payroll deduction. 3. Payroll deduction of such fair share fee shall commence with the first payroll on or after January 15th of each school year. 4. Dues rates and fair share fee rates shall be transmitted by the Association to the Treasurer of the Board for the purpose of determining amounts to be payroll deducted, and the Board agrees to promptly transmit all amounts deducted to the Association. 5. The Board further agrees to accompany each such transmittal with a list of names of bargaining unit members for whom all such deductions were made, the period covered, and the amounts deducted for each. 6. Upon timely demand, non-members may appeal to the Association the payment of the fair share fee pursuant to the internal rebate procedure adopted by the Association, or such non-members may submit each appeal as provided by law. 7. The amount to be deducted from the pay of all non-Association members shall be the total dues as paid by members of the Association, and such deductions shall continue through the remaining number of payroll periods over which Association membership dues are deducted. 8. The Association agrees to indemnify the Board for any cost of liability incurred as a result of the implementation and enforcement of this provision provided that: a. The Board shall give a ten (10) day written notice of any claim or action filed against the employer by a non-member for which indemnification may be claimed; b. The Association shall reserve the right to designate counsel to represent and defend the employer; c. The Board agrees to 1) give full and complete cooperation and assistance to the Association and its counsel at all levels of the proceeding, 2) permit the Association or its affiliates to intervene as a party if it so desires, and/or 3) not oppose the Association or its affiliates’ application to file an amicus curiae brief in the action; d. The action brought against the Board must be a direct consequence of the Board’s good faith compliance with the fair share fee provision of the collective bargaining Agreement herein; however, there shall be no indemnification of the Board if the Board intentionally or willfully fails to apply (except due to court order) or misapplies such fair share fee provision herein. 9. The above fair share fee provisions shall be an exclusive right of the Association not granted to any other employee organization seeking to represent employees in the bargaining unit represented by the Association. 10. The Association and its state and national affiliates shall amend their internal rebate procedures to comply with the constitutional requirements of the current law and any subsequent decisions of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Religious Objections Any employee who is a member of a bonafide religion, body, or sect which has historically held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting public employee organizations shall not be required to join or financially support the organization. Such employee shall, in lieu of periodic dues or agency shop fees, pay sums equal to said amounts to a non-religious, non-labor charitable fund exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, which has been selected by the employee from a list of such funds designated by the City and the Association in a separate agreement. Such payments shall be made by payroll deduction as a condition of continued exemption from the requirements of financial support to the Association and as a condition of continued employment.
No FINRA Objections FINRA shall not have raised any objection with respect to the fairness and reasonableness of the terms and arrangements under this Agreement.
Religious Objection Any employee who is a member of and adheres to established and traditional tenets or teachings of a bona fide religion, body, or sect which has historically held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting labor organizations shall not be required to join or financially support the Union as a condition of employment. Such an employee shall, in lieu of dues and fees, pay sums equal to such dues and fees to a non-religious charitable fund. These religious objections and decisions as to which fund will be used must be documented and declared in writing to the Union. Any employee exercising their right of religious objection must provide the Union with a receipt of payment to an appropriate charity on a monthly basis.
Qualifying Period If a regular employee is promoted or transferred to a position, then that employee shall be considered a qualifying employee in her new position for a period of ninety (90) calendar days. If a regular employee is promoted or transferred to a position either within or outside the certification and is found to be unsatisfactory, she shall be returned to her previously held position. If a regular employee is promoted to a position, either within or outside the certification, and finds the position to be unsatisfactory, she shall be returned to her previously held position.
Response to Objections Each Party retains the right to respond to any objection raised by a Participating Class Member, including the right to file responsive documents in Court no later than five court days prior to the Final Approval Hearing, or as otherwise ordered or accepted by the Court.
Tax Gross-Up Amount Developer’s liability for the cost consequences of any current tax liability under this Article 5.17 shall be calculated on a fully grossed-up basis. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties, this means that Developer will pay Connecting Transmission Owner, in addition to the amount paid for the Attachment Facilities and System Upgrade Facilities and System Deliverability Upgrades, an amount equal to (1) the current taxes imposed on Connecting Transmission Owner (“Current Taxes”) on the excess of (a) the gross income realized by Connecting Transmission Owner as a result of payments or property transfers made by Developer to Connecting Transmission Owner under this Agreement (without regard to any payments under this Article 5.17) (the “Gross Income Amount”) over (b) the present value of future tax deductions for depreciation that will be available as a result of such payments or property transfers (the “Present Value Depreciation Amount”), plus (2) an additional amount sufficient to permit the Connecting Transmission Owner to receive and retain, after the payment of all Current Taxes, an amount equal to the net amount described in clause (1). For this purpose, (i) Current Taxes shall be computed based on Connecting Transmission Owner’s composite federal and state tax rates at the time the payments or property transfers are received and Connecting Transmission Owner will be treated as being subject to tax at the highest marginal rates in effect at that time (the “Current Tax Rate”), and (ii) the Present Value Depreciation Amount shall be computed by discounting Connecting Transmission Owner’s anticipated tax depreciation deductions as a result of such payments or property transfers by Connecting Transmission Owner’s current weighted average cost of capital. Thus, the formula for calculating Developer’s liability to Connecting Transmission Owner pursuant to this Article
Title Objections Seller shall request Escrow Agent to cause to be delivered to Buyer a preliminary title report (the "Preliminary Report") from a title company affiliated with the Escrow Agent (the "Title Company"), showing the status of Seller’s title to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all documents shown therein as exceptions to title ("Exceptions"). Buyer shall have until the date that is five (5) days after the Title Company delivers the Preliminary Report and Exceptions to Buyer within which to give notice in writing to Seller of any objection to such title or to any liens or encumbrances affecting the Property. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Buyer, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of whether it is willing and able to remove the objected-to Exceptions. Without the need for objection by Buyer, Seller shall, with respect to liens and encumbrances that can be satisfied and released by the payment of money, eliminate such exceptions to title on or before Closing. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Seller (the "Title Contingency Date"), Buyer shall elect whether to: (i) purchase the Property subject to those objected-to Exceptions which Seller is not willing or able to remove; or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give Seller notice of Buyer’s election, then such inaction shall be deemed to be Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement. On or before the Closing Date (defined below), Seller shall remove all Exceptions to which Buyer objects and which Seller agrees, or is deemed to have agreed, Seller is willing and able to remove. All remaining Exceptions set forth in the Preliminary Report and those Exceptions caused by or agreed to by Buyer shall be deemed "Permitted Exceptions."
Reasonable Time for Winding Up A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding-up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding-up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between the Partners during the period of liquidation.
