Right to Participate The indemnified party agrees to afford the indemnifying party and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to participate in, conferences with all persons, including Governmental Authorities, asserting any Indemnity Claim against the indemnified party or conferences with representatives of or counsel for such persons.
Right to Participate in Defense Without limiting Section 10.3.2(a), any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment shall be at the Indemnified Party's own expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying Party in writing or (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 10.3.2 (a) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense).
Election to Participate Participation in the DROP program is irrevocable once an employee begins participation. An employee who wishes to participate in the DROP shall complete and sign such application form or forms as shall be required by the Macomb County Board of Commissioners. Such application shall be reviewed by the Human Resources Department within a reasonable time period and make a determination as to the member’s eligibility for participation in the DROP. On the date upon which the member’s participation in the DROP shall be effective, he/she shall be considered to be a DROP participant and shall cease to be an active member of the Macomb County Employees Retirement System. The amount of credited service, multiplier and final average compensation shall be fixed as of the employee’s DROP date. When an employee’s Final Average Compensation is calculated, any retroactive wages provided shall be counted as if the retroactive wages were paid to the employee when the wages were earned, not when they were received by the employee. Increases or decreases in compensation during DROP participation will not be factored into retirement benefits of active or former DROP participants. DROP participants accrue no service time credit for retirement purposes pursuant to the Macomb County Employees Retirement System. Upon execution of this agreement by the UAW, Xxxxx 000, Xxxx 00 and the County of Macomb, employees who are represented by the UAW, Xxxxx 000, Xxxx 00 and who qualify for DROP participation may file the appropriate application forms with an effective DROP date no sooner than (Expressly contingent upon ratification by the Full Board of Commissioners on December 15, 2005) January 1, 2006.
