Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
I. The first criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(1) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1)) requires that a significant
number or proportion of the workers in the workers' firm
must have become totally or partially separated or be
threatened with total or partial separation.

II. The second criterion (set forth in Section 222(a)(2) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied if either:

(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers' firm to a
foreign country in the production of articles or
supply of services like or directly competitive with
those produced/supplied by the workers' firm; OR
(i)(II) there has been an acquisition from a foreign
country by the workers' firm of articles/services that
are like or directly competitive with those
produced/supplied by the workers' firm.

III. The third criterion requires that the shift/acquisition
must have contributed importantly to the workers'
separation or threat of separation. (Set forth in Section
222(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. §
2272(a)(2)(B)(ii).)

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on May 19, 2009 by a company official on behalf of workers
of Ami Entertainment Network, Grand Rapids, Michigan. The
workers produce jukeboxes, game machines, and bill changers.
The petition alleges that worker separations were a
result of a shift of production from Grand Rapids, Michigan to
an affiliated facility located in Mexico.
The investigation revealed that workers of Ami
Entertainment Network who are engaged in employment related to
the production of jukeboxes, game machines, and bill changers
meet the criteria for certification.
Criterion I has been met because a significant portion of
workers are threatened with separation.
Criterion II has been satisfied because production of
jukeboxes, game machines, and bill changers is being shifted
to an affiliated facility in Mexico.
Criterion III has been met because the shift of
production to Mexico contributed importantly to worker group
separations at the Grand Rapids, Michigan facility.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Ami Entertainment
Network, Grand Rapids, Michigan, who are engaged in employment
related to the production of jukeboxes, game machines, and bill
changers meet the worker group certification criteria under
Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance
with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the
following certification:
"All workers of Ami Entertainment Network, formerly known
as Rowe International Corporation, Grand Rapids, Michigan,
who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after May 18, 2008, through two years from the date
of certification, and all workers in the group threatened
with total or partial separation from employment on date of
certification through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C., this 22nd day of June, 2009
