Voluntary Transfer An employee who transfers within the same class shall receive no salary adjustment. An employee who transfers between classes shall receive the minimum adjustment necessary to bring his/her salary to the minimum rate of the new class. However, an employee receiving a rate of pay in excess of the range maximum shall continue to receive that rate of pay.
Voluntary Transfers 1. Employees may apply for a transfer within the application deadline to any opening posted pursuant to the provisions of Section B of this Article. Prior to April 1, of the school year, employees may also apply for transfer for the following school year even if there are no known openings at the time of application; provided, however, that the application specifies the school(s), grade level(s), and subject area(s) of the positions to which the employee would like to transfer.
2. When an employee wants to transfer, the following procedure shall be followed:
a. The employee shall obtain a Transfer Request Form from the Human Resources Office and complete the appropriate section of the form.
b. The employee shall then submit the completed Transfer Request Form to the employee’s site administrator for signature and comment. Such signature shall be an acknowledgment that the site administrator has been informed of the employee’s desire for transfer. If a Transfer Request Form is submitted in connection with a particular vacancy or for the purpose of specifying interest in a position if one should become vacant, the employee shall be notified that the form has been received. Transfer forms received directly in the Human Resources department will be date stamped with a copy provided to the employee. If the form is submitted electronically, they will receive an email acknowledgement.
c. The Human Resources Office shall furnish the site administrator of the work site where a specific vacancy exists with the name(s) and present assignment(s) of employee(s) applying for the vacancy. That site administrator shall interview each employee requesting the transfer, and then shall make a recommendation to the Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources.
3. When, as reasonably determined by the District, the qualifications of candidates for a particular position are equal, present employees shall be given preference over non-employees and the present employees with the greatest seniority shall be given preference over the other present employees.
4. When a transfer request is denied, the District shall notify the employee whose transfer request was denied. The Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources, upon written request of the employee, shall meet with the employee and explain the specific reason(s) for the denial. A representative of the Association may be present at this meeting if requested by the employee, and another representative of the District may be present at this meeting if requested by the Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources.
5. Filing a request for transfer shall be without prejudice to the employee in the employee's present position.
Involuntary Transfer An ‘involuntary transfer’ shall mean a change of assignment from one building to another to fill a specific position or vacancy when the employee does not agree to the change of assignment.
6.3.1 In the event the District determines that circumstances require a transfer of staff to fill a specific position and no qualified staff member voluntarily accepts the necessary transfer then the Superintendent will determine that an involuntary transfer action needs to be implemented. A pool of potential involuntary transferees shall be designated. Each potential transferee shall be considered on the basis of information contained in his/her staff development plan, his/her past performance, and any other pertinent factors.
6.3.2 In the event two or more potential transferees are deemed equally qualified by the District, the least senior employee under consideration shall be involuntarily transferred. Each involuntary transfer will be considered on its own merits and every attempt will be made to minimize disruption to the instructional program. The Superintendent shall notify the person to be involuntarily transferred in writing and shall stipulate the reasons for the transfer. Such notification shall take place before the involuntary transfer is to be implemented. The employee who is involuntarily transferred shall have the right to meet with the Superintendent or designee.
6.3.3 Except in emergencies, at least ten (10) days written notice will be given to the person who is to be involuntarily transferred. However, the involuntary transfer will be tentative until the teacher has had the opportunity to appeal the decision through the grievance procedure. Such appeal shall be limited to alleged procedural violations of this involuntary transfer policy. Appeals on any aspect other than the procedure will be submitted to the District’s Board of Directors in accordance with Article 5, Section 1, Class B, Grievance.
6.3.4 Employees who have been involuntarily transferred who notify the District of their desire to return will be transferred back to the last assignment held if or when that former assignment becomes vacant. This consideration shall expire when the employee has worked the same number of years as the former assignment from which they were transferred.
6.3.5 A person involuntarily transferred during the school year will be granted one (1) of the options listed in Section 7, ‘New Curriculum Responsibilities’.
Involuntary Transfers Any transfer of title or beneficial ownership of Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, upon default, foreclosure, forfeit, divorce, court order or otherwise than by a voluntary decision on the part of a Management Member, Outside Investor Member or Other Investor Member (each, an "Involuntary Transfer") shall be void unless such Management Member, Outside Investor Member or Other Investor Member complies with this Section 13.6 and enables the Company to exercise in full its rights hereunder. Upon any Involuntary Transfer, the Company shall have the right to purchase such Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 13.6 and the person or entity to whom such Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, have been Transferred (the "Involuntary Transferee") shall have the obligation to sell such Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 13.6. Upon the Involuntary Transfer of any Interest or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, such Management Member, Outside Investor Member or Other Investor Member shall promptly (but in no event later than two days after such Involuntary Transfer) furnish written notice to the Company indicating that the Involuntary Transfer has occurred, specifying the name of the Involuntary Transferee, giving a detailed description of the circumstances giving rise to, and stating the legal basis for, the Involuntary Transfer. Upon the receipt of the notice described in the preceding sentence, and for 60 days thereafter, the Company shall have the right to purchase, and the Involuntary Transferee shall have the obligation to sell, all (but not less than all) of the Interests and Special Membership Interests acquired by the Involuntary Transferee for a purchase price equal to the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value of such Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, and (ii) the amount of the indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer plus the excess, if any, of the Carrying Value of such Interests or Special Membership Interests, as applicable, over the amount of such indebtedness or other liability that gave rise to the Involuntary Transfer. For purposes of this Agreement, "Carrying Value", with respect to any outstanding Special Membership Interest, means the value equal to the Special Membership Interest Funds advanced by the applicable selling Management Member, Outside Investor Member or Other Investor Member in respect of any such outstanding Special Membership Interest (plus any portion of accrued and unpaid interest on the applicable pro rata outstanding portion of the Bulk Advances that is allocable to the applicable Member pursuant to Section 10.8), less principal amounts paid to such Member in respect of such Member's Special Membership Interest.
VOLUNTARY TRANSFERS AND REASSIGNMENTS 12.3.1 A listing of tentative vacancies for which the District will interview shall be posted annually in each school on or about March 30 and April 15. The transfer or reassignment closing date will be April 30. Those employees applying within this window shall receive placement prior to consideration of outside applicants.
Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer (a) The Staff has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Issuer understands that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act.
(b) In light of the above, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Issuer agrees that the provisions of this Agreement as they relate to a Shelf Registration shall also apply to an Exchange Offer Registration to the extent, and with such reasonable modifications thereto as may be, reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers or by one or more Participating Broker-Dealers, in each case as provided in clause (ii) below, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers consistent with the positions of the Staff recited in Section 4(a) above; provided that:
(i) the Issuer shall not be required to amend or supplement the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as would otherwise be contemplated by Section 3(i), for a period exceeding 180 days after the last Exchange Date (as such period may be extended pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement) and Participating Broker-Dealers shall not be authorized by the Issuer to deliver and shall not deliver such Prospectus after such period in connection with the resales contemplated by this Section 4; and
(ii) the application of the Shelf Registration procedures set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement to an Exchange Offer Registration, to the extent not required by the positions of the Staff or the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, will be in conformity with the reasonable request to the Issuer by the Initial Purchasers or with the reasonable request in writing to the Issuer by one or more broker-dealers who certify to the Initial Purchasers and the Issuer in writing that they anticipate that they will be Participating Broker-Dealers; and provided further that, in connection with such application of the Shelf Registration procedures set forth in Section 3 to an Exchange Offer Registration, the Issuer shall be obligated (x) to deal only with the Representatives as representatives of the Participating Broker-Dealers, (y) to pay the fees and expenses of only one counsel representing the Participating Broker-Dealers, which shall be counsel to the Initial Purchasers unless such counsel elects not to so act and (z) to cause to be delivered only one, if any, “cold comfort” letter with respect to the Prospectus in the form existing on the last Exchange Date and with respect to each subsequent amendment or supplement, if any, effected during the period specified in clause (i) above.
(c) The Initial Purchasers shall have no liability to the Issuer or any Holder with respect to any request that it may make pursuant to Section 4(b) above.
Agreement Not to Offer or Sell Additional Securities During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Representatives), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of, any debt securities of the Company similar to the Notes or securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities similar to the Notes (other than as contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the Notes).
Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control (a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company has previously or concurrently exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 3.07, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, stating, among other things:
(1) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require us to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a record date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”);
(2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);
(3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;
(4) that unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;
(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes in certificated form purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;
(6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes, provided, that the paying agent receives, not later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter complying with the requirements of Section 4.15(f) below;
(7) that if the Company is repurchasing a portion of the Note of any Holder, the Holder will be issued a new Note equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered, provided, that the unpurchased portion of the Note must be equal to a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000; and
(8) other procedures determined by the Company, consistent with this Indenture, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes repurchased.
(c) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:
(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes (in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not properly withdrawn;
(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes accepted for payment, provided, however, that the funds once deposited are to be uninvested until disbursed pursuant to this Section 4.15; and
(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Company.
(d) The paying agent will promptly mail or deliver to each Holder of Notes accepted for payment the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each such new Note will be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000.
(e) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, will be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no further interest will be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.
