INC is clearly a party now! Since they will be trying to negotiate a new combined deal with XJT/ASA, expect them to negotiate, not roll over.
But once the deal is done I think they will honor it. Frankly I don't mind the fact that HQ is in SGU...the culture in that neck of the woods makes it harder for a JO or Tilton to come in and destroy the company culture and switch their values around.
That's fine if they want to negotiate. But its not a requirement of our contract or RLA to negotiate before joint contract negotiations. He is required to honor our contract until a new joint contract is signed. Honoring our contract equates to merging all three lists and then negotiating a joint contract. Its all spelled out in the section I posted above.
I hope that HQ of the combined company is in SGU as well. It will save even more money then to run two separate HQs.
