In each case, the employee groups rejected representation by the unions and the unions have filed claims with the NMB alleging that Delta interfered with
the elections. While we are vigorously challenging the interference claims, we cannot predict when or how these matters will be resolved for these
workgroups. However, based on the election results, the NMB terminated the pre-merger certifications of the unions to represent employees in those groups.
As a result, matters that were tied to union representation, such as mandatory union dues check off, shop steward and similar positions, and union committees
and offices have also terminated.
If a labor union is certified to represent a combined group post-merger, the terms and conditions of employment of the combined work group ultimately
will be subject to negotiations toward a joint collective bargaining agreement. Completing joint collective bargaining agreements covering combined work
groups that choose to be represented by a labor union could take significant time, which could delay or impede our ability to achieve targeted synergies from
the merger.
With respect to integration of seniority lists, where the two employee groups in a craft or class have different representation status, federal law requires that
seniority integration be governed by the procedures first issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board in the Allegheny-Mohawk merger—known as the Allegheny-
Mohawk Labor Protective Provisions. In general, Allegheny-Mohawk Labor Protective Provisions require that seniority be integrated in a "fair and equitable"
manner and that any disputes not resolved by negotiations may be submitted to binding arbitration by a neutral arbitrator. This requirement is consistent with
the seniority protection policy that has been adopted by the Delta board of directors. Where both groups are represented by the same union prior to the merger,
seniority integration is governed by the union's bylaws and policies. The integration of the seniority lists of the pilots of Delta and NWA as well as flight
dispatchers, meteorologists and aircraft maintenance technicians and related Technical Operations employees has been resolved.
