The ValleyNegoliating Committee also provided the S.E.|.U. during the continuingnegotiations with all of the detail available to Valley concerning the changesValley proposed to make to the 401 (k) Plan and medical benefits, to becorneeffective on January 1, 2009. Also, throughout the acquisition negotiations andthen the continuing negotial¡ons, during both tha bergaining sessíons and allpertinent telephone conversations beûr¡veon the Parties, the Valley NegotiatingCornmittee consistently represented to the S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee thatthe relevant infonnation concerning the proposed modifications to the 401 (k)

Plan and the medical benefits, including a copy of the plan documents, would bemade avaílable to the S.E.|.U. as soon as it was available to the ValleyNegotiating Committee. The S.E.|.U. Negoliating Committee said on severaloccas¡ons that they believed the representations of the Valley NegotiatingCommittee that the pertinent infurmation, such as a copy of the plan documents.did not yet exist.

The sole basis preeented by virtue of, and since, the S.E.l.U.'sOctober 27th E-Mail Notification and the S.E.l.U.'s October 29th bargaining update(untilthe E-Mail described below, fon¡rarded to the Chief Executive Officer etValley by a Member of the S.E.l.U,'s Negotiating Committee last Friday,Octoúeigtd), for why the S.E.|.U. canceled the October 28û - Oclober 30'h

Ostober 28th - October 30rh Sessions because they were awaiting æceipt offurther information concerning the Valley proposals relative to the existing 401 (k)

Plan and medical benefits, and a copy of certain Valfey Human Resources

Policies.

On Ocitober 31, 2008, at 10:10 A.M. (Spokane time), a Member ofthe S.E.¡.U. Bargaining Committee forwarded an E-Mailto the Chief Executive

Officer of Valley (ttre 5.e.1.U. October 31d E-Mail") address!¡q wfry-the S.E.|.U.

canceled ttre OAô¡er 28th - 30th Sessions. The October 31d E-Mail asserts that

the October 28tn - 30th Sessions were u . . . cancelled by the fS.E.l'U.l bargaining

team, not the tS.E.l.U.l . . . " ând further complains that the Membens of theS.E.l.U. Negotiating Committee have had to take " . . . many hours of oyrvacation time to come to the table . . . " and blames the Valley NegotiatingCommittee for the breviff of the October 17th Session, and for not providing

adequate information, stating that " . . . the info available was less than weneecied to make informed decisions for our members."

Valley alleges that, based upon the foregoing, the S.E.|.U. has

refused to bargain in good faÌth by unlawfully and unilaterally canceling

scheduled collective bargaining sessions, and imposing as a condition for furthernegotiations that Valley provide information about only the few subjects ofbaigaining mentioned in the October 27rh E-Mail Nolification, in circumstanceswhãre the S.E.|.U. aqknowledges their bel¡ef that the information did not exist atthe time, and in spite of the fact that the parties were scheduled to moet and

negotiate about tòpics of bargaining otherthan the topics which were the subjectøf the infurmation being sought, and in circumstances where the parties, at thetime the S.E.|.U. canceled the three (3) bargaining sessions, only had a totaloffi.¡e (5) negotiating sessions scheduled before the agreed-upon 'target date'forconcluding a Valley Service Employees SuccessorAgreement. Valley furlheralleges that, based upon the foregoing, the S.E.lU.'s conduct was designed tounlawfully coerce Valley into accepting a proposalsubmitted in writing by theS.E.l.U. ¡ir tne continuing negotiations to the effec't that Valley compensate theMembers of the S.E.l.U.

RELATIVE TO THE ..TECHNICAL'' UNIT

ATTACHMENT FOR, ITEM (2) - BAS¡S OF CHARGE

Since on or about October 27, 2009, the above-named labororganization, the Service Employees lnternational Union, Healthcare, 1199NW(the "s.E.l.u.'), by its officers, agents and representatives, has engaged in, andis engaging in, a refusalto bargain in good faith with Valley Hospital and MedicalCenter located in Spokane Valley, washington ("Valley") in violation of theNational Labor Relations Act, as amended (the 'Act'), by, among other acts andconduct, unilaterally canceling bargaining sessions scheduled with thenegotiating committee representing Valley in the underlying collective bargainingnegotiations with the s.E.l.u. (the valley Negotiating committee"), and byconditioning further bargaining sessions upon the receipt of information relativeto only a few subjects of bargaining in circumstances where the information is notavailable and is not relevant to the bulk of the remaining subjects of bargainingbeing negotiated.

On September 24,200A, the S.E.|.U. executed a Memorandum ofAgreement (the "valley / s.E.l.u. Memorandum") with spokane VaileyWashington Hospital Company, LLC ("S.V.W.H.C.") which essentially defined theinitial terms and conditions of employment to govern the employment bys.v.w.H.c., upon the acquisition of valley by s.v.w.H.c. on october 1, 200g(which actually occurred in the meantime), of certain Valley personnel employedat the time by Empire Health Services ("Empire").

The personnel covered by the Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandumincluded employees employed at valley in a "Technical Bargaining Unit" (the"Valley Technical Employees") on behalf of whom the S.E.|.U. had beenpreviously certified by the National Labor Relations Board as the exclusivecollective bargaining representative, and who were covered by a collective

Memorandum.

,/ The Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum provided, in paragraph (1g),that upon the effectiveness of the Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum on October 1,2008, the Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum would remain in effect until 12:01 A.M.on January 1, 2009. The Valley / s.E.l.u. Memorandum further provided, inParagraph (19), that Valley and the S.E.|.U. (Valley and the S.E.|.U. are referredto sometimes in this attachment for convenience sake as the "Parties") wouldcontinue collective bargaining negotiations toward a collective bargainingagreement covering the Valley Technical Employees to succeed the Valley /S.E.|.U. Memorandum and to provide for the terms and conditions of employmentto become effective for the Valley Technical Employees on and after January 1,2009 (a "Valley Technical Employees Successor Agreement").

The Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum further provided, inParagraph (19), that the Parties had expressed the intention to each other duringthe collective bargaining negotiations resulting in the valley / s.E.r.u.Memorandum (the "acquisition negotiations") to conclude negotiations toward aValley Technical Employees SuccessorAgreement by November 15, 2008 (the"continuing negotiations").

On October 17,2008, the Parties met in the initial (and to date,only) bargaining session in furtherance of the continuing negotiations (the"October 17rh Session"). During the October 17th Sessiõn, tñe Parties confirmedfurther negotiating dates for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, october 2g,29 ar¡d 30, 2008 (the "October 28th - 30th Sessions").

Following the octobe¡ l7th session, the s.E.l.u. published andcirculated, in the form of a leaflet, a summary of the october 17th session,entitled "Bargaining Report, Day 1" (the's.E.l.u. october 17th bargaining

2




update"). The S.E.|.U. October 17th bargaining update acknowledges in anexcerpt entitled "Next Steps" that the "agenda" for the October 28th - 30th

Sessions was to include the following: "During our next negotiating sessionstarting October 28, we plan to present our economic proposals aroundimprovements to wages and achieving community standards"

During the October 17th Session, the Valley Negotiating Committee,/also confirmed that when the Parties met during the October 28th - 30th Sessions,the Valley Negotiating Committee would address provisions of the TechnicalAgreement with regard to which Valley would be making proposals toward aValley Technical Employees Successor Ag reement.

On the evening of Friday, October 24,2008, Don T. Carmody, theValley Negotiating Committee's Chief Spokesperson, spoke by telephone withChris Barton, the Secretary-Treasurer of the S.E.!.U. and the ChiefSpokesperson for the S.E.|.U. in the continuing negotiations (the "October 24htelephone conversation"). During the October 24th telephone conversation, theParties discussed, among other topics, the "timetable" for the submission byValley of certain additional information pertaining to Valley's proposals in thecontinuing negotiations that, effective January 1,2009, certain modifications beimplemented relative to the 401 (k) Plan and medical benefits presently beingprovided to the Valley Technical Employees pursuant to the Valley / S.E.|.U.Memorandum, including when a written copy of the "plan documents"establishing the proposed modifications to the 401 (k) Plan and the medicalbenefits (the "plan documents") would be available.

On the afrernoon of Monday, October 27,2008, Mr. Carmody andMs. Barton spoke again by telephone (the "October 27th telephoneconversation"). During the October 27th telephone conversation, the Partiesagain discussed, among other topics, the submission by Valley of assortedinformation concerning Valley's proposals relative to the 401 (k) Plan and themedical benefits, including when a copy of the "plan documents" would beavailable. Ms. Barton acknowledged receipt earlier that day of certain additionalinformation concerning Valley's proposals relative to the 401 (k) Plan and themedical benefits, but inslsted that the S.E.|.U. needed a copy of the plan

3




documents before the S.E.l.U. could make proposals regarding retirement andmedical benefits. Mr. Carmody informed Ms. Barton that he anticipated beingable to provide information concerning "rates" relative to proposed modificationsconcerning medical benefits when the Parties met, as then scheduled, on thefollowing afternoon, October 28th (in the meantime, the "rates" have beensubjected to a further review by Valley). Ms. Barton also mentioned that theS,E.|.U. was awaiting receipt of a copy of certain Valley Human Resources

/policies which the Valley Negotiating Committee, during the October 17th

Session, had offered to submit thereafter to the S.E.|.U. Mr. Carmodyrepresented to Ms. Barton that a copy of the Valley Human Resources policieswould be submitted to the S.E.|.U. as soon as possible the following day, andcommented that Ms. Barton had put her finger on a great topic of discussion forthe Parties during the October 28 - 30th Sessions. Mr. Carmody explained to Ms.Barton that he was traveling to Spokane the following day in order that the ValleyNegotiating Committee could meet at 1:00 P.M. in unrelated negotiations with theSpokane Medical Engineers Association, and confirmed that he and the otherMember of the Valley Negotiating Committee would be available to meet with theS.E.|.U. beginning at 4:00 P.M., as he and Ms. Barton had agreed to in priortelephone conversations conducted between them since the October 17th

Session (Mr. Carmody had agreed with a request by the S.E.|.U. during atelephone conversation shortly after the October 17th Session to accommodatethe availability of certain Members of the S.E.|.U.

The S.E.l.U.'s October 27th E-Mail Notification was retrieved by theValley Negotiating committee on Tuesday morning, october 2gth. Later thaisame day, during the mid-afternoon on Tuesday, october 2gth, Mr. carmody lefta voice mail message for Ms. Barton (the "october 2gth voice mailmessage;),p¡i9r to departing for Spokane from Nashville, Tennessee, informing her thai tneValley Negotiating Committee's position was that the S.E.|.U. did nõt have the

/rightto unilaterally cancelthe October 28h - October 30th Sessions for the reasonstated in the October 27th E-Mail Notification, and explaining that arrangementshad been made to submit a copy of the Valley Human Resõurces Policjes to the9S l.V that day, as he had represented the afternoon before, during the October27th telephone conversation. Mr. Carmody further informed Ms. Bartãn in hisOctober 28th voice mail message that he would be traveling to Spokane thatgfte1oo1, as p,reviously planned and as he had confirmed-to n¡é. Aafton duringthe October 27th telephone conversation the afternoon before, to join the otherMember of the VallgV Negotiating Committee, who was already ¡ñ Spokane, toproceed in negotiations with the Spokane Medical Engineers Ássoc¡at¡on thefollowing day, and to thereafrer meet with the s.E.l.u.-in the october 2grh -October 30th Sessions, as had also been confirmed with Ms. Barton during theOctober 27th telephone conversation. Mr. Carmody also renewed the offer toaccommodate the Members of the S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee in the samemanner as the Parties had originally planned for that afternoon, by meeting at4:00 P.M. the following afternoon, should the s.E.l.u. stiltdesire such a hleafternoon start time.

At about 9:.90 A.M: (spokane time) on the following morning,Wg$ne_sday, October 29th, the Valley Negotiating Gommittee foñvarded an E-Mailto Ms. Barton confirming the essence of Mr. Carmody's October 2gth voice mailmessage of the previous afternoon, and informing the S.E.|.U. that the ValleyNeg-otiating Committee ryas in Spokane and would remain in Spokane throughthe following aftemoon, October 30th, for the purpose of meeting in the contiñuingnegoliations (the 'Valley October 29th E-Mail'). ihe Valley Octõber 2gth E-Mail -emphasized the fact that the S.E.l.U.'s information requeðt related to only a fewof the topics of bargaining in the continuing negotiations, and that there arenumerous other issues with regard to which the Parties could devote their

5




attention if the Parties were to proceed with the October 28th - 30th Sessions. TheValley October 29th E-Mail also reminded the S.E.|.U. that the Valley NegotiatingCommittee had alerted the S.E.|.U. from the inception of the acquisitionnegotiations, let alone during the continuing negotiations, that there were issueswhich Valley would be presenting during the continuing negotiations as Valley"got its arms around" the former Empire operations following the "closing" onOctober 1't.

Thereafter, at 10:20 A.M. (Spokane time) on the morning ofWednesday, October 29ü, Ms. Barton left a voice mail message for Mr. Carmody(the "S.E.l.U. October 29ü voice mail message") stating that she had received his"message", although it would (she said) have been after Mr. Carmody wasalready on the plane to Spokane (referring to Mr. Carmody's October 28th voicernail message, with no mention of the Valley October 29th E-Mail forwarded anhour earlier), that she understood that Mr. Carmody was in Spokane, but that theS.E.|.U. still would not meet with the Valley Negotiating Gommittee that weekbecause the S.E.|.U. could not prepare proposals for lack of information. Ms.Barton also said that it wasn't as though the S.E.|.U. did not understand thatValley didn't have the information, but that she felt that she had provided Mr.Carmody with adequate notice of why they wouldn't meet with the ValleyNegotiating Committee, repeating that the S.E.|.U. wasn't planning on meetingthat week.

On October29,2008, the S.E.|.U. published and circulated, in theform of a leaflet, a report of their cancellation of the October 28th - 30h Sessions,entitled "Bargaining CANGELLED' (the "S. E. l. U. October 29th bargainingupdate"). The S.E.|.U. October 29rh bargaining update specifies, including byway of quoted remarks from S.E.|.U. representatives, that the reason for theS.E.l.U.'s cancellation of the October 28th - 30th Sessions was the lack ofadequate information regarding the proposed modifications to the 401 (k) Planand medical benefits.

The Valley Negotiating Committee remained in Spokane throughThursday afternoon, October 30th, for the purpose of awaiting a reply to theValley October 29th E-Mail and meeting with the S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee,

6




but did not receive any further communication from the S.E.l.U. in response tothe Valley October 29th E-Ma¡|.

Throughout negotiations with the S.E.!.U., in connection with boththe acquisition negotiations and the continuing negotiations, the ValleyNegotiating Committee provided the S.E.|.U. with allof the information availableto Valley along the way about the proposed modifications to the existing 401 (k)Plan and medical benefits, including some written materials. ln this regard, theValley Negotiating Committee had alerted the S.E.|.U. during the acquisitionnegotiations that Valley was planning to make modifications to the 401 (k) Planand the medical benefits, to become effective on January 1, 2009. Theinformation provided to the S.E.l.U. during the acquisition negotiations wasadequate to allow the Parties to reach an agreement upon the 401 (k) Plan andmedical benefits, as set forth in the Valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum. The ValleyNegotiating Committee also provided the S.E.|.U. during the continuingnegotiations with all of the detail available to Valley concerning the changesValley proposed to make to the 401 (k) Plan and medical benefits, to becomeeffective on January 1,2009. Also, throughout the acquisition negotiations andthen the continuing negotiations, during both the bargaining sessions and allpertinent telephone conversations between the Parties, the Valley NegotiatingCommittee consistently represented to the S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee thatthe relevant information concerning the proposed modifications to the 401 (k)Plan and the medical benefits, including a copy of the plan documents, would bemade available to the S.E.|.U. as soon as it was available to the ValleyNegotiating Committee. The S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee said on severaloccasions that they believed the representations of the Valley NegotiatingCommittee that the pertinent information, such as a copy of the plan documents,did not yet exist.

The sole basis presented by virtue of, and since, the S.E.l.U.'sOctober 27th E-Mail Notification and the S.E.t.U.'s October 29th bargaining update(until the E-Mail described below, forwarded to the Chief Executive Officer atValley by a Member of the S.E.l.U.'s Negotiating Committee last Friday,October 31't), for why the S.E.I.U. canceled the October 28th - October 30thSessions, has been that the S.E.!.U. could not prepare proposals for the

7




October 28th - October 30th Sessions because they were awaiting receipt offurther information concerning the Valley proposals relative to the existing 401 (k)Plan and medical benefits, and a copy of certain Valley Human ResourcesPolicies.

On October 31, 2008, at 10:10 A.M. (Spokane time), a Member ofthe S.E.!.U. Bargaining Committee forwarded an E-Mailto the Chief ExecutiveOfficer of Valley (the S.E.|.U. October 31't E-Mail") addressing why the S.E.l.U.canceled the October 28e - 30th Sessions. The October 31't E-Mail asserts thatthe October 28th - 30th Sessions were " . . . cancelled by the [S.E.l.U.] bargainingteam, not the [S.E.l.U.l . . . " and further complains that the Members of theS.E.l.U. Negotiating Committee have had to take " . . . many hours of ourvacation time to come to the table . . . " and blames the Valley NegotiatingCommittee for the brevity of the October 17th Session, and for not providingadequate information, stating that " . . . the info available was less than weneeded to make informed decisions for our members."

Valley alleges that, based upon the foregoing, the S.E.|.U. hasrefused to bargain in good faith by unlawfully and unilaterally cancelingscheduled collective bargaining sessions, and imposing as a condition for furthernegotiations that Valley provide information about only the few subjects ofbaigaining mentioned in.the October 27th E-Mail Notifícation, in ciriumstanceswhere the S.E.|.U. acknowledges their belief that the information did not exist atthe time, and in spite of the fact that the parties were scheduled to meet andnegotiate about topics of bargaining other than the topics which were the subjectof the information being sought, and in circumstances where the parties, at thetinte the S.E.|.U. canceled the three (3) bargaining sessions, only had a totâloffive (5) negotiating sessions scheduled before the agreed-upon "target date" forconcluding a Valley Technical Employees SuccessorAgreement. Valley furtheralleges that, based upon the foregoing, the s.E.lU.'s conduct was designed tounlawfully coèrce Valley into accepting a proposal submitted in writing by theS.E.|.U. in the continuing negotiations to the effect that Valley compensate theMembers of the S.E.!.U. Negotiating Committee for their attendance atbargaining sessions.

Based upon the above conduct, and by other acts and conduct, thes.E.l.U. has failed to satisñy its duty under to g I (d) of the Act ' . . . to meet atreasonable times and confer in good faith with respect to . . . the negotiation ofan agreement . . . ", and has refused to bargain in good faith in violation of $ I (b)(3) the Act.

REQUEST FOR REL|ËF PURSUANT TO S 10 (J) OF THE ACT

Valley respectfully requests relief pursuant to $ 10 (j) of the Act,based upon the following:

The S.E.|.U. cancelled the October 28th - 30th Sessions, and hasconditioned further bargaining upon receipt of the information specified ln theOctober 27th E-Mail Notification, including, in particular, a copy ðt tne "health careplan document for 2009" and a copy of the '401 (k) plan document for 200g",being documents which the Valley Negotiating Committee has informed theS.E.l.U. do not presently exist, and will not exist until at least after the Parties arenext scheduled to meet on November 11 and 12,2008 (the "Novembersessions'), which are the only two remaining bargaining dates presenflyscheduled between the Parties

lnasmuch as the circumstances which led the S.E.!.U. to canceltheOctober 28th - 30th Sessions and condition further bargaining upon receipt of theplan documents will not change, as a practical matter and as far as Valley candetermine, before the parties are scheduled to meet in the November SeisÍons, itfollows that the S.E.l.U. (without admitting that they did not have the right tocancel the october 28th - 30th sessions, and doing a complete "about-fãce"relative to imposing as a condition for future bargaining the delivery of the plandocuments) will refuse to meet, again, in the November sessions.

consequbntly, especially in light of the fact that the partiesexpressly stated in Paragraph (19) of the valley / S.E.|.U. Memorandum theintention to conclude negotiations toward a Valley Technical EmployeessuccessorAgreement by November 15, 2008, and considering thaithe onlybargaining dates presently scheduled by the Parties are for thè trro November9

Attaqhment to ltem (2) - Basis of Charge

Sessions, Valley and the Valley Technical Employees represented by the

S.E.¡.U. would be extremely prejudiced by the cancellation of the November

Sess¡õns. Therefore, Valley'respectfully iequests that the General Counsel of

the National Labor Relationi Boärd seek a prospective "mandatory injunction",

ordering the s.E.l.u. to resume the continuing negotiations.

The Deaconess October 29rh E-Mail alsoreminded the S.E.l.U. that the Deaconess Negotiating Committee had alerted theS.E.|.U. from the inception of the acquisition negotiatíons, let alone during thecontinuing negotiations, that there were issues which Deaconess would bepresenting during the continuing negotiations as Deaconess "got its armsaround" the former Empire operations following the "closing" on October 1't.

Oc{ober 29rh voice,mail message') stating that she had æceived his"messageo, although itwould (she said) have been affer Mr. Cannody wasalready on the plane to Spokane (referring to Mr. Carmody's October 28'h voicemail message, with no mention of the Deaconess October 29ü E-Mail forwardedan hourearlier), that she understood that Mr. Camody was in Spokane, but thatthe S.E.¡.U. still uould not meet with the Deaconess Negotiating Committee thatweek because the S.E.I.U. could not prepare proposals for lack of information.Ms. Barton also said that it wasn't as though the S.E.|.U. did not understand thatDeaconess didn't have the informetion, but that she felt that she had providedMr. Carmody with adequate notice of why they wouldn't meet with theDeaconess Negotiating Committee, repeating that the S.E.|.U. wasn't planningon meeting that week.

On Oc'tober 29, 2008, the S.E.|.U. published and circulated, in theform of a leaflet, a report of lheir cancellation of the October 28'h - 30tn Sessions,entitled "Bargaining CANCELLED" (the "S.E.!.U.

Valley Hospital and Medical Center by a Member of the S.E.l.U.'s NegotiatingCommittee last Friday, October 3'lot), for why the S.E.l.U. canceled theOctober 28rh - October 30h Sessions, has been that the S.E.|.U. could notprepâre proposals for the October 28th - Oatober 30rh Sessions because theywere awaiting receipt of further inforrnation concerning the Deaconess proposalsrelative to the existíng 401 (k) Plan and rnedical benefits, and a copy of certainDeaconess Human Resources Policies.

On October 31, 2008, at 10:10 A.M. (Spokane time), a Member ofthe S.E.I.U. Bargaining Committee Íorwarded an E-Mailto the Chief F¡<ecutiveOfficerof Valley Hospltaland MedicalCenter(theS.E.|.U.

ValleyHospitaland MedicalCenter is another health care institutíon which was acquiredfrom Empire (in conjunction with the Deaconess acguisition) by the SpokaneValley Washington Hospital Cornpany, LLG ("Spokane Valley"). Spokane Valleyis a signatory to the Memorandurn of Agreernent defined above as the"Dee@ness / S.E.|.U.

' the time, and in spite of the fact that the parties were scheduled to meet andnegotiate about topics of bargaining other than the topics which were the subjectof the inforrnation being sought, and in circumstances where the parties, at thetime the S.E.l.U. canceled the three (3) bargaining sessions, only had a total offive (5) negotiating sessions scheduled before the agreed-upon'target date" forconcluding a Deaconess Tech nical Employees Successor Agreement.Deaconess further alleges that, based upon the foregoing, the S.E.lU.'s conduct

_ was designed to unlawfully coerce Deaconess into accepting a proposal/' subinitted in writing by the S.E.|.U. in the continuing negotiations to the effect thatDeaconess compensate the Members of the S.E.|.U. Negotiating Committee fortheir attendance at bargaining sessions.

Based upon the above conduc{, and byotheracts and conduct, theS.E.|.U. has failed to satisfy its du$ under to S I (d) of the Act " . . . to meet atreasonable times and confer in good faith wÍth respect to . . . the negotiation ofan agreement . . .

Deaconess respectfully requestrs relief pursuant to S 10 (¡) of theAc't, based upon the followíng:

The S.E.|.U. canoelled the October 28h - 30rn Sessions, and hasconditioned further bargaining upon reoeipt of the infonnation specified in theOc'tober 27h E-Mail Notification, including, in particular, a copy of the 'health careplan document for 2009" and a copy of the'401 (k) plan document for 2009',being documents which the Deaconess Negotiating Cornmittee has infonned theS.E.l.U. do not presently exist, and will not exist until at least after the Parties arenext scheduled to meet on November 11 and 12,2008 (the 'NovemberSeçsions), wtriçh are the only tw.o remaining bargaining dates presentlyscheduled between the Parties

lnasmuch as the circumstiances which led the S.E.|.U. to canceltheOctober 28rh - 30h Sessions and condition further bargaining upon receipt of theplan documenûs will not change, as a practical matter and as far as Deaconesscan determine, before the parties are scheduled to meet in the NovemberSessions, it follor¡w that the S.E.|.U. (without admitting tñat they díd not have theright to cancel the Octobe¡ 28h - 30rh Sessions, and doing a complete "about-face" relative to ímposing as a condition for future bargaining the delivery of theplan docurnents) will refuse to meel, âgain, in the November Sessions.

Consequently, especially in light of the fact thst the Partiesexpressly stated in Paragraph (f 9) of the Deaconess / S,E.|.U. Memoràndum theintention to conclude negotiations tosard a Deaconess Technical EmployeesSuccessor Agreoment by November 15, 2008, and considering thet the onlybargaining dates presently scheduled by the Parties are for the two NovemberSessions, Oeaconess and the Deaconess Technical Employees represented bythe S.E.|.U. would be extremely prejudiced by the cancellation of the NovemberSessions. Therefore, Deaconess respectful¡y requests that the General Counselof the National Labor Relations Board seek a prospective "mandatory injunc'tion',ordering the S.E.|.U. to resume the continuing negotiations.
