"Meaningless"???? That is your description. NOT mine.
Arbitration is meaningful BECAUSE there is a contract. Without the 2005 TA contract between the consenting parties there would never have been an arbitration. The arbitration occurred as provided for.... because of the contract. What's your problem?
The terms of that same contract (the 2005 TA) also provided contingencies and stipulations regarding the arbitration award and had the same power and binding nature as the rest of the contract.... remember? ie. The contract that provided for the arbitration in the first place. What's your problem?
The word "nullity" in the MOU you guys voted for superseded all of the prior agreements. What's your problem?
"your" problem is that you guys either have no ability to read, or in the alternative you chose to simply have no respect for the contracts. Either way, you are easy targets for APA..... if you are lucky the West won't be stuck with their AOL "leaders" representing them on their own merger committee.
