Heading: What the Termination Provision Requires

Text: Regarding the first question, we agree with the district court's conclusion that the statewide agreement's termination provision does not require any specific terminology to be effective. Labonte Drywall Co., 2014 WL 2566136, at . Nothing in the four corners of the statewide agreement requires a party's notice of termination to explicitly include the words termination, statewide agreement, or collective bargaining agreement. The termination provision simply requires a notice of termination in writing. See ITT Corp. v. LTX Corp., 926 F.2d 1258, 1265 (1st Cir. 1991) (rejecting party's attempt to insert condition into agreement since no such clause or statement appears within the contract's four corners). 5 Although a party's stated intent to terminate its obligations under a collective bargaining agreement must be both timely and unequivocal, Haas Elec., Inc., 299 F.3d at 27 (Stahl, J., concurring), the parties do not dispute that the letter was timely. - 13 -
