Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans of each applicable Class that the Borrower offers to purchase in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”) which shall be no less than $25,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which the Borrower would be willing to purchase Term Loans of each applicable Class in such Auction; and (iii) the date on which such Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager, such time the “Expiration Time”). Such Expiration Time may be extended for a period not exceeding three (3) Business Days upon notice by the Borrower to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided that only one extension per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (x) the Borrower withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. In the event of a failed auction, the Borrower shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.
Deviation from Grievance Procedure The Employer agrees that, after a grievance has been discussed at Step 2 of the grievance procedure the Employer or his representatives shall not initiate any discussion or negotiations with respect to the grievance, either directly or indirectly with the aggrieved employee without the consent of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Union.
DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES 19.1 The Company shall be free to discharge employees for refusal to obey lawful orders, incompetence, misrepresentation, intoxication, or any just cause. An employee who has not completed his or her probationary period may be disciplined or discharged without just cause and without recourse to the Grievance and Arbitration procedure set forth in Article 20.
19.2 The Company shall be free to discipline any employee who commits an infraction, which, while not being sufficient to constitute just cause for discharge, is sufficient to warrant some lesser disciplinary action. However, no employee who has completed the probationary period will be discharged for offenses, which do not in and of themselves constitute just cause for discharge unless the employee has received two (2) prior written warnings within twelve ( 12) months of the offense. The issuance of two (2) prior warnings within a twelve (12) month period shall constitute just cause. Absent excused or extraordinary circumstances, warning notices shall be issued within ten (10) days after the Company knew or should have known of the offense but not more than thirty (30) days after the event. Each warning notice shall contain a place for the employee to sign to acknowledge receipt without admitting guilt.
19.3 In addition to those circumstances mentioned elsewhere in this Agreement, just cause circumstances for discharge shall include, but not be limited to: insubordination, theft, excessive absenteeism, gross negligence, failure to comply with reasonable rules, policies or directives promulgated by the Company and clearly communicated to the employee, use of unnecessary force or disrespectful treatment of a tenant, visitor or employee and inability or unwillingness to be trained to fulfill existing or modified security needs of the Company, the building owner or its tenants. The Union further understands and agrees that the Company provides an important service to its tenants of a personalized nature to fulfill their security needs, as those needs are perceived by the Company, the building owner and the tenants. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section shall be implemented and interpreted by the parties and by an arbitrator in arbitration proceedings so as to give significant consideration to such needs.
19.4 The Company will discharge any employee who is denied registration or whose registration is canceled by the State of Minnesota Board of Private Detective and Protective Agent Services or any other governmental agency. Discharge under this Article for failure to possess a license shall be without recourse to the Grievance Procedures of Article 20.
19.5 The employee and the Union recognize that the customer is the ultimate consumer and ultimately controls the access of the employee and the business of the Company. When a security-related incident occurs on a job site that is or can reasonably be construed as injurious to that customer, the employee, the Union, and the Company will cooperate in every way in the investigation of the incident until the incident is resolved and/or the customer is satisfied that all reasonable avenues have been pursued to their completion. The Union will not impede any steps which may assist the Company in convincing the customer of the thoroughness and/or reliability of its investigation, consistent with the Union's duty to provide fair and effective representation to its membership.
