the 4.5% is on top of book rates for all except the 190. The 190 is 4.5% on top of current rates
There are actually many things that I do not like in the MOU. If we were voting on a typical contract, I would probably vote no. But there is one big problem in this case: APA has already voted YES! Which means there is no more negotiating. I wish we had voted first so that we still could have leverage, but APA has painted us into the corner by apporving it. Now the question is simply, do we want to be part of it?
