What calendar date does the IATSE 2024 MOA rest-period-penalty formula ("first Sunday that is 90 days after August 4, 2024 or the business day AMPTP receives notice of ratification, whichever is later") give, and how do I resolve such a bracket?

The MOA bracket is a "later of two dates" rule. Synthesis: August 4, 2024 was a Sunday; 90 days after it is Saturday November 2, 2024; the first Sunday on or after that is Sunday November 3, 2024 (91 days after August 4). IATSE announced ratification on Thursday July 18, 2024, 108 days before that Sunday, so the notice branch cannot be the later one unless AMPTP's notice came after November 3 (no source read suggests that). The formula therefore gives November 3, 2024 for productions commencing principal photography on or after it; this is an arithmetic result from the MOA text, not a statement by AMPTP or IATSE about the West Coast Studio Local Agreements (see -02 for executed-text cross-checks). Curator qualifications: Curator arithmetic: date(2024,8,4)+90 days = 2024-11-02 (Saturday); first Sunday on/after = 2024-11-03. AMPTP Area Standards Agreement PDF: 'Effective for motion pictures, parts of a mini-series or episodes of a series which commence principal photography on or after November 3, 2024, the penalty for invasion of the rest period ... shall be payment of additional double time'. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
