Normalization. The pricing adjustments set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of this Exhibit F may require comparison between pricing methodologies for dial-up access (e.g., between hourly and monthly pricing). In order to normalize differing pricing methods for such comparison, the then-current Average Daily Simultaneous Access Usage multiplied by 30.44 (number of days in a month) will be deemed equivalent to one (1) port provided for any month under the Agreement. "AVERAGE DAILY SIMULTANEOUS ACCESS USAGE" will mean the average number of hours of usage per port per day measured over the twelve-month period ending on the immediately preceding September 30.
Normalization. The Participant’s Account balance determined under paragraph (a) is normalized into a single-sum benefit that is immediately and unconditionally payable to the Employee. A standard interest rate, and a straight life annuity factor that is based on the same or a different standard interest rate and on a standard mortality table, must be used in normalizing this benefit. In addition, no mortality may be assumed prior to the Employee’s testing age.
Normalization. For the purpose of determining Operating Expenses for any partial year, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to accrue uniformly during the entire calendar year. If any part of the Building or (with respect to those Operating Expenses for which Tenant’s Share is determined by the Rentable Area of the Property) other rentable areas of the Property is not fully leased during a calendar year, Operating Expenses shall be adjusted to add amounts and items of Operating Expenses which would normally have been incurred if the Building or other rentable areas of the Property (as applicable) had been fully leased during such calendar year and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses (both for the purposes of the initial estimate and year-end reconciliation) shall be based on an assumed full occupancy of the Building or the Property (as applicable).
Normalization. The terms set forth in Section 11 may require comparison of [****] pricing methodologies. In order to convert pricing associated with one of such methodologies to pricing associated with the other methodology (and vice versa), the then-current Average Daily Port Usage multiplied by [****] will be deemed to be equivalent to one (1) port provided for [****] under the Agreement.
Normalization. For the purpose of determining Operating Expenses for any partial year, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to accrue uniformly during the entire calendar year. If any part of the Buildings is not fully leased during a calendar year, Operating Expenses shall be adjusted to add amounts and items of Operating Expenses which would normally have been incurred if the Buildings had been fully leased during such calendar year and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses (both for the purposes of the initial estimate and year-end reconciliation) shall be based on an assumed full leasing of the Buildings.
Normalization. If any part of the Project is not fully occupied and used during any twelve (12) month period preceding a December 31, the calculations of Operating Expenses, both estimated and actual, shall be adjusted by adding amounts and items of Operating Expenses which would normally have been incurred if the Project had been fully occupied and used during such period, and by deducting any abnormal start-up or other costs incurred, all as estimated by Landlord; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, for this Section 3.02 (d), ground rent increases, insurance and real property taxes shall be excluded in the calculation of Operating Expenses for normalization.
Normalization. If in any year Operating Expenses are reduced because the Building is not fully occupied, Operating Expenses, both estimated and actual shall be adjusted, for the purpose of calculations under this Article, by adding amounts and items of expenses which would normally have been incurred if the Building had been fully occupied during the whole of such year and deducting any abnormal start-up costs, all as estimated by the Landlord.
Normalization. Report meter consumption data normalized by square footage, weather, occupancy, and other pertinent variables (e.g., per student trained, per widget produced, per soldier deployed, etc., as related to the mission of the facility/installation).
Normalization. 1. The Parties agree that normalization is vital to the peace process. It is through normalization that communities can return to conditions where they can achieve their desired quality of life, which includes the pursuit of sustainable livelihoods and political participation within a peaceful deliberative society.
2. The aim of normalization is to ensure human security in the Bangsamoro. Normalization helps build a society that is committed to basic human rights, where individuals are free from fear of violence or crime and where long-held traditions and value continue to be honored. Human insecurity embraces a wide range of issues that would include violation of human and civil rights, social and political injustice and impunity.
3. As a matter of principle, it is essential that policing structure and arrangement are such that the police service is professional and free from partisan political control. The police system shall be civilian in character so that it is effective and efficient in law enforcement, fair and impartial as well as accountable under the law for its action, and responsible both to the Central Government and the Bangsamoro Government, and to the communities it serves.
4. An independent commission shall be organized by the Parties to recommend appropriate policing within the area. The commission shall be composed of representatives from the parties and may invite local and international experts on law enforcement to assist the commission in its work.
5. The MILF shall undertake a graduated program for decommissioning of its forces so that they are put beyond use.
6. In a phased and gradual manner, all law enforcement functions shall be transferred from the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to the police force for the Bangsamoro. The Parties agree to continue negotiations on the form, functions and relationship of the police force of the Bangsamoro taking into consideration the results of the independent review process mentioned in paragraph 4.
7. The Joint Coordinating Committees on Cessation of Hostilities (JCCCH) as well as the Ad hoc Joint Action Group (AHJAG) with the participation of the International Monitoring Team (IMT) shall continue to monitor the ceasefire agreement until the full decommissioning of the MILF forces. These existing coordinating mechanisms shall be the basis for the creation of a Joint Normalization Committee (JNC) to ensure the coordination between the Government and remaining MILF forces, and through whi...
Normalization. Normalization of the data was an essential task to enable like-for-like comparisons. Due to differences in contracts between participants, reporting of raw volume and price data would be improper for comparing participant operations. For data comparability to exist, it is necessary that the raw data be appropriately adjusted to account for differences in both contractual arrangements between participants and their suppliers and objective factors such as exchange rates. Quantifiable adjustment factors were applied to the raw data: • Location cost index (place all costs in the same market location using a cost index) • Exchange rates (presentation in the same currency) • Geographic diversity (the relative spread of services between central, local and remote locations) • Offshore component (% of labour provided offshore) • Pension (treatment of benefit payments) • Scope (composition of HW and labour) • Scale (number of servers) • Service levels (availability, time to respond, etc.) • Unionization (% of unionized workforce) • Workweek duration (35 hours versus 40 hour workweek) Each of these adjustments is discussed below in more detail to provide their context and definitions were applicable: • Cost Index 4 o There are differences in relative costs of doing business in each of the participant cities; the Client’s city was set at 100 and using established comparative cost index appropriate adjustments were made to all other locations. The KPMG survey is explicitly a measure of the “relative costs of doing business” for each service, which is distinct from a price index such as CPI. • Exchange Rates5 o Any data from U.S. participants was converted using a factor of $1 CDN equals $0.8065 US based on 2005 Q2 Corporate Exchange Rates as published by PA's Corporate Tax and Treasury department • Geographic Diversity 6 4 KPMG Alternative Study 2004, Industry: software design, Operation: advanced software; this cost index was normalized to 100 for Toronto.
