The December 2008 annual AAWE* index shall be compared to the December 2007 annual AAWE* and the percentage increase shall be applied to the salary grid to take effect September 1, 2009.

The December 2009 annual AAWE* index shall be compared to the December 2008 annual AAWE* and the percentage increase shall be applied to the salary grid to take effect September 1, 2010.

The December 2010 annual AAWE* index shall be compared to the December 2009 annual AAWE* and the percentage increase shall be applied to the salary grid to take effect September 1, 2011.

In no case will a reduction in salary be applied. If the formula produces a negative number, the existing salary grid shall continue for the subsequent year.
