Multiple Measures of Student Learning Measures must include a combination of classroom, school and district assessments, student growth percentiles on state assessments, if state assessments are available, and student MEPA gain scores. This definition may be revised as required by regulations or agreement of the parties upon issuance of ESE guidance expected by July 2012.
Power Factor Design Criteria (Reactive Power A wind generating plant shall maintain a power factor within the range of 0.95 leading to 0.95 lagging, measured at the Point of Interconnection as defined in this LGIA, if the ISO’s System Reliability Impact Study shows that such a requirement is necessary to ensure safety or reliability. The power factor range standards can be met using, for example without limitation, power electronics designed to supply this level of reactive capability (taking into account any limitations due to voltage level, real power output, etc.) or fixed and switched capacitors if agreed to by the Connecting Transmission Owner for the Transmission District to which the wind generating plant will be interconnected, or a combination of the two. The Developer shall not disable power factor equipment while the wind plant is in operation. Wind plants shall also be able to provide sufficient dynamic voltage support in lieu of the power system stabilizer and automatic voltage regulation at the generator excitation system if the System Reliability Impact Study shows this to be required for system safety or reliability.

How Much May I Contribute to a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Education Savings Account?
TPP If we do, we'll tell you why in the way we think most appropriate (unless doing so would compromise our reasonable security measures or otherwise be unlawful). How you can authorise and cancel transactions To authorise a transaction you can: • present a card or provide your account details and, if required, use your security details (such as a PIN, passcode, personal identifiers, biometric data or other details); or • give us an instruction to make a balance/money transfer (by giving us the account details you want to send a payment to) and answer the questions we ask using your security details to verify that the instruction is from you. We may deactivate contactless payments at any time. You can't cancel purchases you make with a card but you can cancel other transactions that you've asked us to make in the future or regular payments (such as annual membership fees) if you ask us before the end of the business day before they are due to be made. When we can refuse to make a transaction We may refuse to authorise a transaction if: • we have reasonable grounds to suspect unauthorised or improper use or fraud; • we reasonably consider that acting on your instructions might lead to: o a breach of law, regulation, code or other obligation; or o action from a government, law enforcement agency or regulator; • we're legally required to; • use of the card would be prohibited; • you have insufficient funds; or • the transaction would exceed a transaction limit of some sort or take your account over your credit limit. You may not use your account for illegal activities or in a manner which disguises the true nature of the transaction, for example, by obtaining cash through a transaction which you know will be treated as a purchase of goods and services, or by using your card at a merchant you own or control. If we do refuse a transaction, you'll normally be told at the point of sale. In all cases, you can find out about transactions we've refused, including the reasons why or any limits we may have put on your card, by calling us. We'll let you know this information unless the law or any regulation prevents us from doing so or for fraud prevention or security reasons. If we don't authorise a transaction or a retailer doesn't accept the card we're not responsible for any loss. Transactions you haven't authorised You're not responsible for any transactions: • made using the actual card before you receive it (for example, if your card is stolen in the post); • where we haven't told you how you can contact us to notify us that your card or security details have been lost, stolen or compromised; • if we fail to apply procedures that we're legally required to use to check that a payment has been authorised by you or a supplementary cardmember; • not authorised by you or a supplementary cardmember or any person you or a supplementary cardmember allowed, in breach of the agreement, to use your account or card; • made by a person you or a supplementary cardmember allowed, in breach of the agreement, to use your account or card after you tell us you suspect your account is being misused. You're responsible if you or a supplementary cardmember: • use your account or card fraudulently; • allowed someone else to use your account or card, including if someone else is allowed to access a mobile phone or other device on which your card has been registered (for example, by giving them your passcode or by letting them register their fingerprint on it) but you won't be responsible for any transactions made by a person you or a supplementary cardmember allowed to use your account or card after you tell us you suspect your account is being misused. If there are errors in a transaction and this is our fault, we'll give you a refund. We may then resubmit the correct transaction. If upon contacting us, you wish to dispute a transaction, we'll initiate an inquiry and may suspend the transaction on your account if we reasonably consider there to be a valid dispute. Once investigations are complete, we'll adjust your account accordingly. Transactions for unexpected amounts If you make a purchase within the European Economic Area and, at the time that you authorised it, you didn't know exactly how much you were going to be charged (for example, at a hotel check-in) you can request a refund from us if the amount charged is more than you reasonably expect and you ask for the refund within 8 weeks from the date of the statement on which the purchase appears. You'll need to provide us with all the information we reasonably ask for and we may provide this information (including personal information) to third parties investigating your claim. We'll conclude our investigation within 10 business days of us receiving all required information and either make the refund or tell you why we've refused your claim. You're not entitled to a refund if you or a supplementary cardmember gave consent for a transaction directly to us and, at least four weeks before the transaction was made, you were given information about the transaction (or it was made available to you) by us or the retailer. For example, at the time you placed an order, the exact amount was unknown but was later confirmed to you at least four weeks before your card was charged. Incorrect balance/money transfers We’ll refund the amount of a balance/money transfer and any interest, fees or charges we charge you as a result without undue delay if you instruct us to make a transfer and it is incorrectly made or it never arrives. If you give us the wrong details for a balance/money transfer or we can show that the bank we made the payment to did receive it, we won’t have to give you a refund but we'll help you to recover the money (we may charge a fee to cover our costs). Theft, loss or misuse of the card or account You or a supplementary cardmember must: • sign the card and keep it safe and secure (including using device passcodes, biometric data or other security details where applicable); • not let others use the account or card and regularly check you still have the card; • not give the card or card number to anyone else other than us, or for the purpose of making a transaction and not share your security details with anyone else (other than us or a TPP if it's necessary to do so); • choose a PIN or passcode that is not easy to guess. If you or a supplementary cardmember, register a card for use on a mobile phone or other device, you or the supplementary cardmember, must: • keep it and your security details safe and secure at all times, in the same way you would your card or PIN; • always use the lock feature on the phone or other device, where applicable; • never share your security details or allow another person to have access to the device in a way which allows them to make transactions using the card registered on the device. You or a supplementary cardmember must tell us straight away if you suspect: • a card has been lost or stolen or not received; • a mobile phone or other device to which a card has been registered has been lost, stolen or compromised; • someone else knows a PIN or other security details; or • the account or a card is being misused or used without authorisation, or a transaction on the account has not been authorised or has been processed incorrectly. Our contact details are at the beginning of this agreement. If the use of a card is stopped for any reason, the use of all other cards issued on your account may also be stopped at the same time. If you register for online account services, you must keep your security details (such as your username, password or other details) and also your mobile phone or other device safe and secure. How much and when you must pay You must pay the minimum payment by the payment due date shown on your statement but you can always pay more than the minimum payment due. If we don't ask you to pay any arrears, they'll be due with your minimum payment. We'll use any payment you make to pay off arrears before any other amounts you owe us. We won't treat any payment we make into your account or any refund given by a retailer for a purchase as payment made by you. If you pay more than you owe us under this agreement, we'll return the amount you've overpaid. How to pay You must make payments to us in Pounds Sterling by any method set out on your statement or any method we otherwise tell you about or permit you to use. You must make a separate payment for each account you hold with us. If you send payments together and don't clearly designate the account to be paid, we may apply payments to any account. We'll apply any payment to your account on the day we receive it, as long as this is within our business hours. We'll apply any payment we receive after that time on the next business day. How we apply payments We pay off amounts you owe at the highest interest rates before amounts charged at lower interest rates and we'll apply payments to amounts that have appeared on your statements before amounts that have not yet appeared on your statements. Missing payments Missing payments can have serious consequences. It could mean: • if you miss a payment, you‘ll lose any promotional interest rates on your account which means any remaining promotional balances will be charged interest at your standard rate; • you have to pay additional charges or costs; • your credit rating may be affected, making it more difficult or expensive to obtain credit; and • legal action (which could include getting a court order giving us the right to payment out of the sale proceeds for your home or other property) or bankruptcy proceedings may be taken against you to recover any debt owed under this agreement. Payments into your account by mistake If we make a payment into your account by mistake or as a result of a systems error, we'll automatically take the amount out of your account. If we're told that a payment from within the EEA was made into your account as a result of someone else's mistake (for example, if the payer gave the wrong account number or reference), but, when we contact you, you tell us the payment was intended for you, we're legally required to share all relevant information including your name and address and transaction information with the bank the payment came from if they ask us so that the payer may contact you. Supplementary cardmembers At your request, we may issue cards on your account to supplementary cardmembers. You must make sure that supplementary cardmembers keep to this agreement. You're responsible for all use of your account by supplementary cardmembers and anyone they allow to use your account. This means you must repay all transactions they make. If you want to end a supplementary cardmember's right to use your account you must tell us. Converting transactions made in a foreign currency If we receive a transaction or refund for processing in a foreign currency, we'll convert it into Pounds Sterling on the date it's processed (which may be different to the date of the transaction or refund). This means that the exchange rate used may differ from the rate that applied on the date of your transaction or refund. Exchange rate fluctuations can be significant. If the transaction or refund is in U.S. Dollars, we'll convert it directly into Pounds Sterling. In all other cases, we'll convert it into U.S. Dollars first and then into Pounds Sterling but we'll only charge one non- sterling transaction fee. The exchange rate we use will be: • the rate required by law or customarily used in the territory where the transaction or refund is made, or where this doesn't apply; • based on interbank rates selected from customary industry sources on the business day prior to the processing date. We call this conversion rate the 'American Express Exchange Rate'. The American Express Exchange Rate is set each day from Monday to Friday (including bank holidays) except for Christmas Day and New Year's Day. You can find our rates via the 'My account' section of the online account centre or by calling us. When you make a transaction in a foreign currency, you may be given the option of allowing a third party (for example, the retailer) to convert your transaction into Pounds Sterling before submitting it to us. If you decide to do this, the exchange rate and any commission or charge will be set by the third party and may include a commission or charge. As we'll receive a transaction converted by a third party in Pounds Sterling, we won't apply a non-sterling transaction fee. Statements and legal notices We'll send statements to you by your chosen method at least once a month (1) if there has been any account activity or (2) if there has been a Base Rate change and otherwise once every 12 months. This could be by post, by email to the email address you've most recently given to us, by posting them in the online account centre or by making them available to you in any other lawfully permitted manner. We may send you notices (including any information we're legally required to send you, such as information about changes to this agreement or other agreements we have with you) on or together with your statements. In addition to payment information, each statement will show all transactions and amounts charged to your account in the statement period and the total account balance. Always check each statement and contact us as soon as possible if you need more information about anything. If you receive statements online, you should make sure you regularly check this information and any mail we post to you electronically in the same way you would written mail. If you receive statements by post, we'll send statements (and any notices we're required by law to provide) by post, addressed to you, at the latest billing address on our records. Contacting you We may send you important messages and other communications (including alerts about certain activity on your account) about your account, card or card benefits in line with your preferences. This could be by email or SMS, on your statements or by posting them in the online account centre, for example, we may send you an alert to confirm that you've updated your contact information. There are some messages we need to send you (such as statements of your account or security alerts), but you can opt out of receiving other alerts or communications (such as marketing) by contacting us using the online account centre or by calling us. If we need to contact you about any actual or suspected fraud or security threats, we'll do this using the fastest and most secure way of contacting you (for example, we may try to send you a text message rather than calling you). Changing your contact details We'll use your most recent contact details to contact you. You must notify us immediately if you change the mailing address or email address we send statements or notices to. We may update your contact details if we receive information that they have changed or are incorrect. If we've been unable to deliver any communications or these have been returned, we may stop attempting to communicate with you until we receive accurate contact information. Any legal notices will be posted to the online account centre or sent to your last known mailing address or email address. Suspending your account We may suspend your account or any feature on your account if: • you tell us to close your account or we tell you we are closing your account; • we consider it necessary for the security of the account; • you're in breach of the agreement; • we suspect unauthorised, improper and/or fraudulent use; • we reasonably think there's a significantly increased risk that you'll not be able to repay us; and • you've repaid more in interest and charges than the amount you've borrowed on your card for a sustained period. We'll normally notify you beforehand or immediately afterwards and may provide you with the reasons. If your account is suspended, you (and any supplementary cardmember) must not use the card and inform retailers not to seek to take any further payments from your account. We'll allow you to use the account, if the reasons we suspended your account in the first place no longer apply. You can tell us this is the case and request reinstatement via our website or by calling us. Ending your agreement This agreement is
