2. On the effective date of this Extension Agreement, the August 18, 2010 Letter of Agreement providing for expense reimbursement to ALPA is hereby modified to change Paragraphs 5-a & f to read “$13 million” rather than “$10 million,” provided that there shall be no retroactive payments. Effective March 16, 2012, the TPA Section 2-D is modified by replacing “Denver” with “Chicago.” Effective October 1, 2012, Section 2-D is modified to provide that the JNCs will meet at any agreed location, or if none is agreed, at a location designated by the National Mediation Board.
3. TPA Section 4-D limiting establishment of new Domiciles or Bases is modified as follows:
a. Continental (“S-CO”) may open B-737/B-756 Bases in DEN, and/or SFO and/or ORD, subject to the requirements of Paragraphs 3-c and 4 below .
b. United (“S-UA”) may open A-320/B-756 Domiciles in IAH, subject to the requirements of Paragraphs 3-c and 4 below.
c. S-CO ORD/DEN/SFO B-737/B-756 BESs and S-UA IAH A- 320/B-756 Categories shall be staffed by volunteers and through TDY/Special Assignment provisions (as set forth below) until a JCBA has been ratified. (Note: New Bases/Domiciles may initially be heavily skewed toward reserve positions.)
i. S-UA IAH A-320/B-756 will be staffed first by incremental Vacancy Bids. If there are insufficient bidders on the Vacancy Bids, then by volunteers using the existing S-UA TDY system. If there are still insufficient pilots to staff the S-UA IAH A-320/B-756 Categories, then involuntary TDY as described below will be used to secure the remaining staff.
ii. S-CO ORD/DEN/SFO B-737/B-756 BESs will be staffed first by System Bids. If there are insufficient bidders on the System Bids, then by temporary Special Assignments, using S-CO CBA Section 24, Part 8.D (voluntary Special Assignments). If there are still insufficient pilots to staff the ORD/DEN/SFO B-737/ B-756 BESs, then using S-CO CBA Section 24, Part 8.C (involuntary Special Assignments).
4. TDY/Special Assignment at the Bases/Domiciles named above will be subject to the provisions of the S-UA and S-CO CBAs, except that:
a. There will be no involuntary permanent assignments to the S-CO ORD/DEN/SFO B-737/756 Bases or the S-UA IAH A-320/B-756 Domiciles.
b. The Section 24, Part 8.B, 4 in 6 restriction in the S-CO CBA shall not be applicable.
