Related to Procedure for Major Discipline

• Discipline Procedure 1. Disciplinary action may be imposed for violation of written rules and regulations as set forth by the Board, incompetence, inefficiency, dishonesty, drunkenness, immoral conduct, insubordination, discourteous treatment of the public, neglect of duty, misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, any other failure of good behavior, or conviction of a felony. 2. No employee shall be disciplined without first having had the opportunity for a hearing, if the employee so requests, with an OAPSE representative of his/her choice present. The employee shall be given a written statement containing the charges and the time and place of the hearing. The written statement shall notify the employee of his/her rights to OAPSE representation. The employee must be given the opportunity to sign the statement acknowledging receipt of the statement and date received. Under emergency conditions as determined by the supervisor (including, but not limited to, health and/or safety of the employee or other employees; blatant insubordination; or refusal to work), the supervisor may immediately suspend an employee without pay for a period of up to three (3) work days without the formal hearing described above. An opportunity for a formal hearing with the supervisor must be provided within the suspension period. Failure to provide an opportunity for a hearing during the suspension period shall preclude the right of further discipline for the offense causing the initial suspension. Emergency suspensions will not be subject to Section 6 of this Article. 3. Disciplinary action of less than discharge should generally be progressive and corrective in nature. A. Disciplinary actions shall be grievable. This Section shall supersede existing state law governing termination of employment (O.R.C. 3319.081). B. In determining progressive and corrective action, just cause shall be construed and limited to the nature and seriousness of the offense, the effect the alleged conduct has on the Board’s operation, the discipline or lack thereof used in other similar situations known to the Board, and the appropriateness of the proposed penalty in view of the record and length of service of the charged employee. The enumeration of these factors is not intended to preclude either the exercise of good and sound business judgment or to minimize the importance of an employee’s property interest in his job.

• Procedure for Termination The party designated in Section 4.03 of the Trust Agreement shall advise the Securities Administrator in writing of its election to cause a Terminating Purchase, no later than the Distribution Date in the month preceding the Distribution Date on which the Terminating Purchase will occur. Notice of the Distribution Date on which any such termination shall occur (or the Distribution Date on which final payment or other Liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust or the disposition of the last REO Property remaining in the Trust will be distributed to Certificateholders, as reflected in the Remittance Report for such month (the “Final Distribution Date”) shall be given promptly by the Securities Administrator by letter to Certificateholders mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with a Terminating Purchase, not earlier than the 15th day of the month preceding such final distribution and not later than the 5th day of the month of such final distribution or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the Servicing Remittance Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Final Distribution Date and that final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator therein designated on that date, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Final Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator. The Securities Administrator shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is given in connection with a Terminating Purchase, the purchaser shall deliver to the Securities Administrator for deposit in the Certificate Account on the Business Day immediately preceding the Final Distribution Date an amount in next day funds equal to the Termination Price, as the case may be. Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates on a Distribution Date by Certificateholders, the Securities Administrator shall distribute to Certificateholders (A) the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date, if not in connection with Terminating Purchase, or (B) if in connection with a Terminating Purchase, an amount determined as follows: with respect to each Certificate with an outstanding Certificate Balance, the outstanding Certificate Balance thereof, plus interest thereon through the Accounting Date preceding the Distribution Date fixed for termination and any previously unpaid interest, net of unrealized losses, Realized Interest Shortfall and Shortfall with respect thereto; and in addition, with respect to each Residual Certificate, the Percentage Interest evidenced thereby multiplied by the difference between the Termination Price and the aggregate amount to be distributed as provided in the first clause of this sentence and the next succeeding sentence. Upon the deposit of the Termination Price in the Certificate Account, the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Trustee, and any Custodian acting as its agent, shall promptly release to the purchaser the Trustee Mortgage Loan Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Trustee, shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments without recourse necessary to effectuate such transfer. The Trust shall terminate immediately following the deposit of funds in the Termination Account as provided below. In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates within six months after the Final Distribution Date specified in the above-mentioned written notice, the Securities Administrator shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates and receive the final distribution with respect thereto, net of the cost of such second notice. If within one year after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities Administrator may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts otherwise payable on such Certificates. Any funds payable to Certificateholders that are not distributed on the Final Distribution Date shall be deposited in a Termination Account, which shall be an Eligible Account, to be held for the benefit of Certificateholders not presenting and surrendering their Certificates in the aforesaid manner, and shall be disposed of in accordance with this Section. The Securities Administrator shall establish the Termination Accounts, which shall be Eligible Accounts, on or about the Closing Date.

• Formal Grievance Procedure 1. In the event that a complaint cannot be resolved informally, the parties shall pursue the first step in the formal grievance procedure before making any application for arbitration, unless the College and the AAUP agree in writing to alter the procedure or waive one or more of the steps by proceeding directly to arbitration. 2. Upon written request of the AAUP Contract Compliance Officer, the College shall submit any requested documents in its possession which may be necessary for investigation of the grievance.

(4) Within eight (8) days after receipt of the disposition of the Director of Human Resources, the AAUP may appeal the decision in writing to the College Grievance Officer, by submitting a Grievance Disposition Reaction Form or a document containing substantially the same information as contained in a Grievance Disposition Reaction Form.
