e. If a new hire pilot changes his initial crew position pursuant to Section 24.F.6.c., the Company shall activate him at his new base consistent with the Company’s staffing requirements.
f. Except as provided in Section 6.E.1.c., a new hire pilot shall not become entitled to a relocation package pursuant to Section 6 as

7. New Hire Junior Activation Compensation due in accordance with Section 24.F.6.d. shall (for the senior pilot):
a. be equal to the hourly rate of pay for the crew position in which a junior pilot is activated; and
b. begin on the date that a junior pilot, from the same or subsequent System Bid, activates into the crew position with the higher hourly rate of pay; and
c. continue until the earlier of:
i. his activation into a new, subsequently awarded or assigned crew position with a rate of pay the same or higher than his
ii. his withdrawal or removal from training for a subsequently awarded or assigned crew position with a rate of pay the same or higher than his New Hire Junior Activation Compensation;
iii. the date he incurs a training cycle failure for a subsequently awarded or assigned crew position with a rate of pay the same or higher than his New Hire Junior Activation Compensation;
iv. the date as of which all available pilots have completed training (i.e., activated) for his new, subsequently awarded or assigned crew position, from the same System Bid, with a rate of pay the same or higher than his New Hire Junior Activation Compensation;
v. the date as of which there are no longer any junior pilots activated in the crew position that generated his New Hire Junior Activation Compensation eligibility;
vi. the date the last junior pilot(s) would no longer have been activated in the crew position that generated the pilot’s New Hire Junior Activation Compensation eligibility, but for the junior pilot’s unavailability (e.g., owing to leave of absence, sick leave), if such junior pilot was awarded or assigned another crew position on a subsequent System Bid. That date shall be the date on which the last available, junior pilot is no longer activated in the crew position that generated the Junior Activation Compensation eligibility;
vii. the date the next most senior available pilot (compared with the junior pilot identified in Section 24.F.7.c.vi.) is no longer activated in, or would no longer have been (if the standard in Section 24.F.7.c.vi. is applied) activated in, the crew position that generated the New Hire Junior Activation Compensation, if the junior pilot was not awarded a crew position on that subsequent System Bid (e.g., the junior pilot was on leave when the System Bid closed);
viii. the pilot’s award, on a subsequent System Bid, to another crew position with the same or lower rate of pay than the pilot’s currently awarded crew position; or
ix. the pilot’s failure to bid, at 100%, a crew position that the pilot could have been awarded, with a rate of pay the same or higher than the New Hire Junior Activation Compensation.
