written response to both the employee and to the Union documenting the resolution within
twenty-one (21) calendar days from the date of the grievance or on another mutually
agreeable timeline.

If the grievance is not resolved at Step 1, or if the Union initiated the grievance, the Union
may, in its sole discretion, elect to advance the grievance to Step 2. If a grievance is brought
by the Port against the Union, it may be led at Step 2.
To advance a grievance to Step 2, either the Union or the Port shall submit a written
statement setting forth in detail the facts upon which the grievance is based, the sections of
the Agreement alleged to have been violated, and the remedy sought.  The Union shail'

statement including the Step 2 grievance ling which sets forth in detail the facts upon which
the grievance is based, the sections of the Agreement alleged to have been violated, and the
remedy sought. The Union shall submit such written statement to the Port of Seattle Labor
Relations Director, or designee, within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of the Port's
Step 2 answer or on another mutually agreeable timeline. For Port initiated grievances, the
Step 3 submission must be submitted to the Secretary/Treasurer/Business Agent of the Union
within fourteen (14) days after the Union's Step 2 answer.

If the grievance is not resolved at Step 3 of the procedure, upon mutual agreement, the Port
and the Union may, within seven (7) days of the Step 2 answer deadline, agree to submit the
grievance to a mediator appointed by the Public Employment Relations Commission or
another mutually agreed upon mediator for mediation.  if mediation fails to resolve the
issue(s), or if both parties do not agree to submit the grievance to mediation, then the matter
may be referred to arbitration by the grieving party.

used in the arbitration proceeding.
Step Four: Arbitration.

(a) Arbitration Procedures
Within 30 days of the failure to resolve this grievance at Step 3 or, if the parties attempt
mediation, within 30 days of the failure of the mediation process, either party to this
Agreement may, in its sole discretion, apply to the Federal Mediation and Conciliation
Service for a list of ve (5) persons who are qualied and available to serve as arbitrators for
the dispute involved.  Within ve (5) days of receipt of this list, the Labor Relations
Committee will jointly select the arbitrator from the list in the following manner: The
representatives of the Union and the Port shall each privately identify (strike) two (2) of the
(5) available arbitrators. The person whose name was not struck shall be the arbitrator. If
more than one person is not struck by either party, the person not struck whose last name

comes rst in the alphabet shall be selected. The decision of the arbitrator shall be nal and
binding to all parties to the dispute.
The Union and Port shall pay any compensation and expenses relating to its own witnesses
and/or representatives, except that Port employees whose presence is (1) requested by the
Union or the Port and (2) reasonably necessary or related to the proper conduct of the
arbitration, and who otherwise would be "on the clock," will be treated as if they are still
working and thus will suffer no loss of pay as a resuit of their presence at the arbitration.  In
order to ensure parity for all employees in this regard, an employee who is assigned to swing
or graveyard shift and whose presence meets the criteria set forth above shall be released
from some or all of either the shift immediately preceding the date of his/her presence at the
arbitration, or the shift following such presence, depending on the circumstances, for an

P011 of Seattle / ILWU Local 9 Tour Group Coordinators Collective Bargaining Agreement
March 1, 2014  February 28, 2016  Page 7

amount of time equal to the amount of time such empioyee is directed to spend at the
arbitration. '

If either party requests a stenographic record of the hearing, the party requesting the copy
will pay the cost of said record. If the other party also requests a copy, the party will pay
one-half of the stenographic costs. The fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall be shared
equally by the parties. The Union does not hereby waive any rights it may have, subsequent
to a successful arbitration; to seek an award of reasonably incurred attorney's fees pursuant
to RCW 49.48.030.

(b) Limitation on Power of the Arbitrator
The powers of the arbitrator shall be limited to the application and interpretation of this
agreement and its appendices.  Decisions shall be based on whether or not a contract
violation is deemed to have occurred. The arbitrator shall have jurisdiction to decide any
dispute arising under this Agreement, but shall not add to, delete, or modify any section of
the Agreement. EXCEPTION: Should the Union contend that it is (or could be) entitled to
an award of reasonabiy incurred attorney's fees pursuant to RCW 49.48.030, and should the
Port agree, the Port and the Union may specically request that the arbitrator retain
jurisdiction, subsequent to his/her ruling on the merits of the grievance, to_determine all
issues related to the amount of such an award and to determine the appropriate amount of
such an award. Such an agreement may occur either prior to or subsequent to the arbitrator's
decision on the merits.
(c) ,Time Limits/Intent of the Parties
It is the intent of the parties that disputes be resolved in an amicable and orderly fashion
based on the merits. In pursuing this end, the parties do not want disputes forced to either the
LRC or arbitration that might be resolved at earlier stages.

For this reason, the time limits and ali other requirements set forth above may be waived by
written agreement or acknowledgement of the primary representatives of the parties, i.e., the
Port's Labor Relations Director or his/her delegate, and the Union's Business Representative
or his/her delegate. '
((1) Time Limitation as to Back Pay.
Grievance claims involving retroactive compensation shall be limited to 180 calendar days
prior to the written submission of the grievance to the Port and the Union, provided,
however, this 180 day limitation may be waived by mutual consent of the parties.

ARTICLE 11: SENIORITY and PREFERENCE IN REHIRE,

Section 1. Seniori Roster. The Port shall maintain one seniority roster for the bargaining unit.
Seniority for the purpose of this Article is the employee's date of hire into the bargaining unit.
(The parties agree to "grandfather" seniority for employees who have been continuously rehired
from year to year, starting with the year 2000).  Seniority shall be broken and forfeited by
retirement, resignation before the end of cruise season, termination from employment, layoff of
thirteen months, or a break in service of more than thirteen months.

Port of Seattle / lLWU Local 9 Tour Group Coordinators Collective Bargaining Agreement
- March I, 2014  February 28, 2016  Page 8

Given the seasonal nature of employment, seniority credit'for any previous years of employment
shall only count toward bargaining unit seniority if employment is continuous from year to year.
Example: If an employee successfully completes the 2007 season and is rehired for the 2008
season, their 2007 seniority shall 'credited' in addition to their 2008 seniority.  If this same
employee successfully completes the 2008 season, but is not rehired again until the 2010 season,
their seniority for any previous years of work shall be forfeited. Their seniority shall begin anew
V
with the 2010 season.

Section 2. Completion of a Season. Employees will be deemed to have successfully completed
a season if, in management's discretion, their work performance is satisfactory, and they have
worked the entire time period that they committed to at the beginning of the season (Approved
Leave Without. Pay will not count against employees when determining whether or not an
employee worked the entire time period to which they committed.)

Section 3. Preference in Rehire. Employees who have successfully completed a season will be
given preference in re-hire for the next season. The Port shall issue a letter at the end of a season
to those employees who will be given preference for rehire for the following season. Employees
who have not successfully completed a season will also be issued a letter to inform them that
they will not be rehired.  Employees who are not selected for rehire may request an exit
interview from management. (See Appendix for Samples of Letters.)

In the event that multiple employees are given preference for rehire letters, the order of rehire
'
shall be determined by bargaining unit seniority, from most senior to least senior.

Management will not deny an employee preference'in rehire for reasons that are arbitrary,
capricious or discriminatory.

The Port and the Union agree that receiving a "preference for rehire" letter is not a guarantee of
employment for the following season. The rehiring of TGCs is dependent on business and
operational needfor such positions.
Section 4. Lead Position. The Employer reserves the right to appoint Leads at its sole
discretion. TGC assigned Lead duties shall be paid a premium of one dollar ($1.00) above their
current base rate ofpay for all hours performing lead work.

work, that employee shall receive compensation for the hours they were scheduled to work, less
