Preliminary Considerations. The variety and complexity of tasks performed by institutions of higher education produce an inescapable interdependence among the institutions' component parts namely, the Governing Board, Administration, Faculty and Students. The relationship calls for adequate communication among these components, and full opportunity for appropriate joint planning. The variety of approaches may be wide. Therefore, at least two general conclusions regarding joint effort seem clearly warranted: (a) important areas of action involve at one time or another the initiating capacity and decision-making participation of all the institutional components, and (b) differences in the weight of each voice should be determined by the particular matter at hand.
Preliminary Considerations. (a) Before instituting a RIF due to an impending or immediate financial crisis, the College will make a reasonable effort to reduce non-salary expenditures; but such effort must seek balance between fiscal realities, and must maintain, to the extent possible, the instructional mission of the College.
(b) Before a RIF due to an impending or immediate financial crisis involving the faculty bargaining unit shall occur, the President and/or his/her representatives shall meet at least twice with the Faculty Forum Executive Committee or its representatives and 1) present the College’s current general fund revenue and expenditure projection and any anticipated short fall in the current and future year(s), and 2) give reasonable consideration to other means of reducing the budget and increasing revenues. These may include, but are not limited to, retirement incentives, leave without pay, shared or reduced positions, salary freeze or reduction and delayed capital expenditures. Prior to implementing any RIF, the President shall: 1) provide the Faculty Forum Executive Committee with advance notice of the tentative RIF plan along with the factors the President considered in reaching that decision; 2) give the Faculty Forum Executive Committee a reasonable period of time within which to provide input regarding the plan; and 3) give reasonable consideration to the Faculty Forum’s input.

In recognition of the College's commitment to shared governance, it is acknowledged that the academic governance body is the Camden County College Faculty Assembly. The most current Camden County College Faculty Assembly Constitution and Bylaws is recognized as being the guiding document for the Camden County College Faculty Assembly.
Preliminary Considerations. The process of evaluating the societal impact of a cyber-risk event comprises a certain number of steps: Step 1: Identification of qualitative criteria to evaluate the societal impact of cyber risk events, and organize them in categories. Step 2: Provide the weights to the criteria and the categories. This is necessary because not all the criteria have the same importance.
Preliminary Considerations. Before proceeding to consider matters relating to the agreements themselves, some preliminary matters should be considered, as they will 1. Mining Agreements Institute (1979) Mining Agreements II Institute (1981) The Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation, Xxxxxxx Law Building, Univer- sity of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309, U.S.A. have to be considered before an agreement can be entered into. Some of these are obvious but others may trap the unwary. It is not intended to discuss these matters but merely to mention them. Some matters which should be considered are:
(a) What is the nature of the mining property? In most Canadian jurisdic• tions, an unpatented mining claim is no more than a licence granted by the Crown to enter upon the described lands for the purpose of exploring the same. The licence is granted on a year-by-year basis and certain requirements must be met for the licence to be renewed. In addition, in some jurisdictions, a mining claim can be renewed for only a maximum number of years and upon that maximum be• ing reached, the claim must be discarded or taken to the next higher of title (usually a mining lease). Freehold property or leases
(b) Does the disposing party own the property? With mining claims, usually the Mining Recorder's record is definitive and cannot be ques• tioned. In most jurisdictions, the Mining Recorder will supply for a nominal charge a certified copy of the record relating to the claim. In some jurisdictions, the governing legislation has gone so far as to provide specifically that the acquiror may deal with the recorded owner and the recorded owner is deemed to be the actual owner. 2 Prudence would, however, require that every known interest holder or alleged interest holder be included as a party to an acquisition agreement. With other forms of property, it is prudent, although not often done, to carry out a full title search so that the acquiror knows what he is acquiring and if there are any "clouds" on the title.
(c) Is the disposing party to have an interest only in his property or is his interest to extend to any other property interests acquired by the acquiror within a defined area? If an area of influence is to be used, it must be clearly and precisely defined. The use of a dull pencil on a scale map can and has lead to lawsuits. A map may be con• venient to include for reference (only), but a latitude and longitude or distance from clearly defined points of reference is best. If usual procedure of defini...
Preliminary Considerations. SANOFI-AVENTIS has designed and development a cytokine known as Interleukin IL-13 (or IL-13) for which it has applied for patents and developed knowhow; For its part, IDM has acquired and developed substantial knowhow and is the holder of patents and relative patent applications, in particular for ex vivo cancer therapies, marketed in the form of research kits and cell processors. On July 13, 1999, the Parties executed an agreement, which was cancelled and replaced by an amendment dated November 30, 2001 (hereinafter, the “IL-13 Agreement”), defining the conditions under which SANOFI-AVENTIS granted IDM a non-exclusive license to its IL-13 Industrial Property rights for the implementation of Phase I and II Studies on one or more IL-13 Products and the marketing of IL-13 Research Kits in return for SANOFI-AVENTIS’ taking a stake in the capital of IDM. This amendment dated November 30, 2001 was further amended by amendment number 1 dated March 30, 2005, both amendments being collectively called the “IL-13 Agreement”. The Parties also entered into a Memorandum of Agreement on July 20, 2001, pursuant to which SANOFI-AVENTIS has, on the terms and conditions defined in such Memorandum of Agreement, a right of first refusal to all IDM development programs in the field of ex vivo cell therapy in humans, whether or not they pertain to IL-13 (hereinafter, the “2001 Agreement”). Pursuant to provisions of article 8.2 of the IL-13 Agreement and pursuant to information received from IDM related to the change of control of IDM that will result from the announced combination between IDM and Epimmune Inc., SANOFI-AVENTIS notified IDM of its decision to proceed with an early exercise of BSA1 and BSA2 warrants, such notification being equivalent to exercise of Option 1 and Option 2 (as defined in the IL-13 Agreement). Option 1 and Option 2 being therefore exercised pursuant to provisions of the IL-13 agreement, both Parties must therefore enter into the IL-13 License Agreement and the Amendment to the IL-13 License Agreement as annexed to the IL-13 Agreement. For the sake of simplicity, both Parties agreed to enter into the Amended and Restated License Agreement in order to benefit from a single document that includes all provisions of the IL-13 License Agreement and the Amendment to the IL-13 License Agreement, after removal of several provisions that are now obsolete.
Preliminary Considerations. If a school district meets the above-described eligibility requirements, it may proceed to prepare an SFNA and adopt Alternative School Facility Fees. School districts may desire to obtain an estimate of the potential amount of its Level 2 Fee prior to preparation of the SFNA. For example, if a school district’s Level 2 Fee is less than the current Level 1 Fee, a school district will not need to adopt an SFNA unless, there is a reasonable possibility that school districts would be able to levy Level 3 Fees. For those school districts that cannot justify a Level 2 Fee, they should still monitor the current status of the issues relating to availability of State funding for new construction in the event the possibility of levying Level 3 Fees exist.
Preliminary Considerations. Whereas (i) the material strategic role carried out by Xxxxxxx in Linx, (ii) the relevance of maintaining the bond between Xxxxxxx and the combined business of STNE and Linx after the closing of the Transaction; and (iii) the changes to the purpose and structure of the Engagement Proposal, notably for Xxxxxxx to be engaged as Senior Advisor of Stone Group and no longer as Executive, no longer holding the statutory position and without any employment bond, the Parties decided that the terms and conditions regarding your engagement by STNE shall be governed exclusively by this instrument (“New Proposal”).
Preliminary Considerations. If a reduction-in-force becomes necessary:
1. Administrator's standing on the salary schedule will not affect reduction.
2. The reduction-in-force shall be accomplished, whenever possible, through attrition.
3. Whenever possible, the Superintendent shall arrange transfers from one department to another where specialized certification exists.
4. Services normally performed by an administrator who has been laid of shall not be performed by anyone who is not a member of the bargaining unit where the layoff was effected.
