Grievance Representation (A) An employee who decides to use this grievance procedure shall indicate at Step 1 (or other initial written step as authorized by the provisions of this Article) whether he shall be represented by the Union. If a grievant selects a Union Grievance Representative to represent him in a grievance which has been properly filed in accordance with this Article, the Union Grievance Representative may be allowed a reasonable amount of annual leave to investigate the grievance. Such annual leave shall be subject to prior approval by the Union Grievance Representative’s immediate supervisor; however, approval of such leave will not be withheld if the Union Grievance Representative can be allowed such time off without interfering with, or unduly hampering the operations of the unit to which the Union Grievance Representative is regularly assigned. When a grievant has elected Union representation, both the grievant and the Union Grievance Representative shall be notified of a Step 1 meeting. Written communication concerning the grievance or its resolution shall be sent to the grievant and the Union Grievance Representative, and the decision agreed to by the state and the Union shall be binding on the grievant. (B) If the employee is not represented by the Union, an adjustment of the grievance shall be consistent with the terms of this collective bargaining Agreement. The Union shall be given reasonable opportunity to be present at a meeting called for the resolution of such grievance. A grievant using this procedure in the processing of a grievance will be bound by the procedure established by the parties to the Agreement. (C) The Executive Director of the Union shall furnish to the state a list of Union Representatives and the state will not recognize a person as a Union Representative whose name does not appear on the list. (D) If a grievance meeting, mediation, or arbitration hearing is held or requires reasonable travel time during the work hours of grievant, a representative of the grievant, or any required witnesses, such hours shall be deemed time worked. Attendance at grievance meetings, mediation, or arbitration hearings outside of a participant’s regular work hours shall not be deemed time worked. The state will not pay the expenses of participants attending such meetings on behalf of the Union.
UNION REPRESENTATION 5.01 The Local Union may appoint or otherwise select a bargaining committee which shall be composed of not more than seven (7) employees one of whom will be designated as an alternate, and one of whom shall be employed in maintenance. Such committee, together with representatives of the Union shall represent the Union in all negotiations with representatives of the Board for a renewal of this Agreement. The local union shall notify the Board in writing of the names of its bargaining committee members prior to the start of negotiations. 5.02 The Local Union may also appoint or otherwise select up to seven (7) stewards one of whom will be selected as the Chief Xxxxxxx. One of such stewards shall be designated to represent the employees engaged in caretaking in each Field Service Area of the Board, and one of such stewards shall be designated to represent those engaged in maintenance, courier, and warehousing services. In the absence of the designated stewards one of the other stewards may act in their place. The Local Union's Chief Xxxxxxx shall co-ordinate the activities of such stewards. 5.03 A xxxxxxx'x function shall be to assist an employee in the preparation and presentation of grievances to the employee's supervisor and in the event of any violation of Article 4 by any employees to instruct them to return to work and perform their usual duties. A xxxxxxx, with the prior permission of the xxxxxxx'x immediate supervisor, shall be reasonably allowed such time off as is necessary for the prompt investigation and settlement of grievances. The Board will compensate stewards and Union officers for any portion of their regularly scheduled work time spent with the permission of the Board in servicing grievances. The Board may revoke this compensation if it reasonably believes that the time off for servicing grievances is being abused. 5.04 Members of the bargaining committee shall suffer no loss in pay for any portion of their regularly scheduled work time spent in attending negotiations with the Board. 5.05 The Local Union shall notify the Board in writing of the names of its officers, Chief Xxxxxxx and stewards. 5.06 The President of the Local union shall be supplied a copy of Board Corporate Services and Human Resources Committee meeting agendas and Regular Board meeting agendas, 48 hours prior to the meeting/s.

Payee Representations For the purpose of Section 3(f) of this Agreement, Party A and Party B make the representations specified below, if any:
Association Representation The unit member grievant shall be entitled, upon request, to representation by the Association at all grievance meetings. In situations where the Association has not been invited to represent the unit member, the District shall not agree to a final resolution of the grievance until the Association has received a copy of the grievance and the proposed settlement and has been given the opportunity to file a response to the matter.
Investment Representations (i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof. (ii) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D, and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act. (iii) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities. (iv) The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act. (v) The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities. (vi) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities. (vii) The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard, the Purchaser understands that the SEC has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after an initial Business Combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. (viii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated with investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investments in the Securities. (ix) The Purchaser understands that the Private Placement Warrants shall bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant Agreement.
Confirmation of Representations Borrower shall deliver, in connection with any Securitization, (a) one or more Officer’s Certificates certifying as to the accuracy of all representations made by Borrower in the Loan Documents as of the date of the closing of such Securitization in all relevant jurisdictions, and (b) certificates of the relevant Governmental Authorities in all relevant jurisdictions indicating the good standing and qualification of Mortgage Borrower, Senior Mezzanine Borrower, Borrower and Holdings as of the date of the Securitization.
Right to Union Representation An employee shall have the right to Union representation if requested by the employee, only as provided below. There will be no exceptions to this rule. In any investigatory interview or discussion, conference or meeting with an employee who is the subject of an investigation which may lead to disciplinary action. At any disciplinary hearing, discussion, conference or meeting (including settlement discussions) with the employee who is the subject of the disciplinary hearing. Management shall allow reasonable time for the Union Representative to attend said meeting but in no case less than one (l) hour if there is a representative on duty at the worksite.

Management shall ensure that an employee has an opportunity to exercise the right to secure Union representation. If the Union cannot or does not have a representative available within a reasonable period of time, the meeting may be conducted without representation. If the Employer disapproves release time for the representative under Article 4, the meeting shall be delayed until the representative is released from duty. The role of the Union Representative during an initial investigation interview conducted by Management is to assist in the clarification of questions and otherwise advise the employee of his/her rights. However, it is the employee who must answer the questions posed to him/her as best as possible, and under no circumstances may the Union Representative answer for the employee, dominate the meeting, or interfere with the Employer's investigating process. At a meeting to discuss mitigating circumstances or to impose disciplinary action or in the course of representing an employee who has filed a disciplinary appeal under SPP Title 11 or a grievance under SPP Title 12, the Union Representative may act as spokesperson on behalf of the employee with prior approval of the employee. An employee shall not have the right to a Union Representative in attendance during a discussion solely related to performance or during a performance review.
