1Opinion of the Court
TORRUELLA, Circuit Judge.
This case arises from an unfair labor practice charge brought by three unions against an employer for unilaterally merging an employee pension plan with that of its parent company. The National Labor Relations Board (the “Board”) dismissed the complaint, finding that the employer had a sound arguable basis for interpreting the employees’ contract as granting it the authority to merge the pension plan without the unions’ consent. After careful consideration, we affirm the Board’s order.
