Modified Standards Clause Samples

The Modified Standards clause establishes that certain industry or contractual standards will be altered or adapted for the purposes of the agreement. In practice, this clause specifies which standards are being changed, how they are being modified, and the extent to which the modifications apply to the parties’ obligations or deliverables. For example, it may adjust technical specifications, reporting requirements, or compliance benchmarks to better fit the unique needs of the contract. The core function of this clause is to ensure that both parties have a clear, mutual understanding of the standards that govern their relationship, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes over performance expectations.
Modified Standards. (a) Licensor may modify or implement any existing or new Standards during the Term, effective upon notice to Licensee, provided that (i) Licensor may not require Licensee to comply with any Standards that, as a whole, place a disproportionate or discriminatory burden upon Licensee relative to practices for similarly situated Licensor Lodging Properties, but Licensee acknowledges that certain Standards may not apply to all of Licensor’s branded hotels and (ii) Licensee shall have a commercially reasonable time to transition to comply with the above new Standards (unless new or modified Standards reflect changes in applicable Laws, in which case, Licensee must adopt such changes sufficiently promptly to comply with such Laws). (b) On an annual basis during the Term, Licensee may submit proposed changes to the Brand Standards for Licensor’s prior written approval. Licensor shall not unreasonably withhold its approval to any such changes.

  • General Standards An Assistant Professor will be competent to teach in a particular field, will be current in the literature of that field, and will seek to meet student needs in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. However, an Assistant may be a junior member of the academic community, with little professional and/or teaching experience. Furthermore, an Assistant may have little experience in curriculum development, committee work, governance, professional and/or community service, etc. In short, an Assistant Professor generally will be new to tenure-track college teaching. For eligibility for promotion from Assistant to Associate Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Assistant Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally and consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and in non-classroom environments. A successful candidate for the rank of Associate Professor will have remained current in the field, and will have improved his/her teaching in some demonstrable way. He/she also will have demonstrated professional growth in one or more of the following ways: completion of additional appropriate course work (if applicable), attendance at professional conferences, service on campus and/or District committees, professional and/or community service, or, the production of some creative work. Evidence of professional growth will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate. For promotion from Associate to Professor, the candidate must have served a minimum of four (4) years at the rank of Associate Professor, and must show evidence that he/she has grown professionally to a point where he/she has mastered both a particular field of knowledge and the teaching of that knowledge. A successful candidate must show evidence that he/she consistently has sought to meet student needs, in both the classroom and non-classroom environments. A Professor should be a senior member of the faculty, one who has such substantial experience, knowledge, and skill that he/she could mentor junior faculty in his/her area of expertise. A Professor will have demonstrated all the same kinds of achievements and attributes necessary for promotion to the Associate Professor rank, but in addition will demonstrate that he/she is a leader in some appropriate sense. Evidence of professional growth and leadership will be drawn from a careful analysis of student evaluations and peer evaluations over a period of time, and from a critical reading of materials submitted by the candidate.
