SECTION 1: MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION

I hereby request and voluntarily accept membership in the American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA), and I agree to abide by its Constitution and Bylaws. I authorize AGMA to act as my exclusive collective bargaining representative for purposes of wages, benefits, and working conditions.

SECTION 2: DUES CHECK-OFF AUTHORIZATION

I authorize my Employer to deduct from my wages and forward AGMA: (1) membership dues or agency fees; (2) any required initiation or reinstatement fee and (3) any other fee or assessment as certified by AGMA as required to remain a member in good standing of AGMA. This authorization is made voluntarily and not as a condition of employment. This authorization shall remain in effect and be irrevocable for the period of one year, or until the expiration of the collective bargaining agreement between my employer and AGMA, whichever is sooner, and shall be automatically renewed and shall be irrevocable for successive periods of one year each, or for the period of each succeeding applicable collective bargaining agreement, whichever is shorter, unless I revoke it by giving written notice to my Employer and AGMA not more than thirty (30) days and not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the end of each one year period or the expiration of the collective bargaining agreement. I expressly agree that this authorization is independent of, and not a quid pro quo, for union membership, but recognizes the value of the services provided to me by AGMA. It shall continue in full force and effect even if I resign my AGMA membership, unless properly revoked in the manner prescribed above.

I understand that I may revoke this authorization by providing written notice to both my employer and AGMA not more than thirty (30) days and not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of each successive one (1) year period following the signing of this Authorization or of each successive Collective Bargaining Agreement, whichever occurs sooner. Such revocation shall become effective the first (1st) day of the calendar month following its receipt.
