AA will offer to Eagle pilots 50% of the pilot positions (net of any AA pilots returning from deferred furlough status) in that class, and each subsequent class, until 824 Eagle pilots have been hired at AA.

The intent of this agreement is to provide 50% of the AA new hire training slots to 824 AE pilots in such a way that the AE operation is not disrupted.
c.
As such, AE management will release no fewer than 20 AE pilots per month in a month in which AA is entering new hire pilots into training, in an effort to meet the 50%. If AE management determines that they can release more than 20 pilots in any given month, they will do so.

Even so, I can see the "operational considerations" as a way to breach the contract. ALPA will sue, it will take another 8 years to get an arbitration, and many pilots will get screwed. If we are fat on pilots, 60% go over guaranteed. Why limit ourselves to the 20 per month if AA is hiring 80 a month?
The reason the company will meter will be staffing requirements.
