Meetings of Partners (a) Actions requiring the vote of the Partners may be taken at any duly constituted meeting of the Partners at which a quorum is present or by means of a written consent. Meetings of the Partners may be called by the General Partner, by the affirmative vote of a majority of Directors then in office, or by Partners holding at least a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Partners, and may be held at any time, date and place determined by the General Partner in the case of meetings called by the General Partner or the Partners and at any time, date and place determined by the Directors in the case of meetings called by the Directors. In each case, the General Partner will provide notice of the meeting, stating the date, time and place of the meeting and the record date for the meeting, to each Partner entitled to vote at the meeting within a reasonable time prior to the meeting. Failure to receive notice of a meeting on the part of any Partner will not affect the validity of any act or proceeding of the meeting, so long as a quorum is present at the meeting. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, only matters set out in the notice of a meeting may be voted on by the Partners at the meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Partners as of the record date will constitute a quorum at any meeting of Partners. In the absence of a quorum, a meeting may be adjourned to the time or times as determined by the General Partner and communicated to the Directors in the manner described above in this Section 3.4(a). Except as otherwise required by any provision of this Agreement or of the 1940 Act, (1) those candidates receiving a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of Partners called pursuant to Section 2.11(c) of this Agreement or elected pursuant to the requirement of Section 2.11(b) will be elected as Directors and (2) all other actions of the Partners taken at a meeting will require the affirmative vote of Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by those Partners who are present in person or by proxy at the meeting.
(b) Each Partner will be entitled to cast at any meeting of Partners or pursuant to written consent a number of votes equivalent to the Partner’s Investment Percentage as of the record date for the meeting or the date of the written consent. The General Partner will establish a record date not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the date of any meeting of Partners or mailing (including by electronic transmission) to the Partners of any written consent, to determine eligibility to vote at the meeting and the number of votes that each Partner will be entitled to cast at the meeting, and will maintain for each record date a list setting out the name of each Partner and the number of votes that each Partner will be entitled to cast at the meeting.
(c) A Partner may vote at any meeting of Partners by a properly executed proxy transmitted to the Partnership at any time at or before the time of the meeting by telegram, telecopier or other means of electronic communication or other readable reproduction as contemplated by the provisions relating to proxies applicable to corporations incorporated under the laws of Delaware now or in the future in effect. A proxy may be suspended or revoked, as the case may be, by the Partner executing the proxy by a later writing delivered to the Partnership at any time prior to exercise of the proxy or if the Partner executing the proxy is present at the meeting and votes in person. Any action of the Partners that is permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting out the action to be taken, are signed by Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast or any greater percentage as may be required under this Agreement to approve the action.
Management meetings 31.1 Either the Engineer or the Contractor may require the other to attend a management meeting. The business of a management meeting shall be to review the plans for remaining work and to deal with matters raised in accordance with the early warning procedure.
31.2 The Engineer shall record the business of management meetings and is to provide copies of his record to those attending the meeting and to the Employer. The responsibility of the parties for actions to be taken is to be decided by the Engineer either at the management meeting or after the management meeting and stated in writing to all who attended the meeting.
Meetings and Voting Meetings of Partners shall be at such times and locations as the General Partner shall determine in its sole discretion. The General Partner shall provide notice to the Limited Partners of any meetings of Partners in any manner that it deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. The holders of a majority of the outstanding Voting Interests for which a meeting has been called (including Voting Interests owned by the General Partner) represented in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of Partners unless any such action by the Partners requires approval by holders of a greater percentage of the outstanding Voting Interests, in which case the quorum shall be such greater percentage of the outstanding Voting Interests. At any meeting of the Partners duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum is present, the act of Partners holding Voting Interests that, in the aggregate, represent a majority of the Voting Interests of those present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall be deemed to constitute the act of all Partners, unless a greater or different percentage is required with respect to such action under the provisions of this Agreement, in which case the act of the Partners holding Voting Interests that in the aggregate represent at least such greater or different percentage shall be required; provided, however, that if, as a matter of Applicable Law or amendment to this Agreement, approval by plurality vote of Partners is required to approve any action, no minimum quorum shall be required. The Partners present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Partners to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by Partners holding the required Voting Interests specified in this Agreement. In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of Partners may be adjourned from time to time by the affirmative vote of Partners with at least a majority of the Voting Interests entitled to vote at such meeting (including Voting Interests owned by the General Partner) represented either in person or by proxy, but no other business may be transacted.
Required Meetings or Hearings Whenever any employee is required to appear before the Superintendent or his designee, Board or any committee, member, representative or agent thereof concerning any matter which could adversely affect the continuation of that employee in his office, position, or employment or the salary of any increments pertaining thereto, then he shall be given prior written notice of the reasons for such meetings or interview and shall be entitled to have a representative of the Association present to advise him and represent him during such meetings or interview.

10.1(b) This Article is intended to provide a free avenue of communication between the Union and the Company, and suggestions, complaints, or other matters may be presented by either party, provided that neither party shall be required to discuss any item brought up by the other party nor be bound to act upon any item presented. However, both parties agree to discuss informal grievances and complaints.
