The Company will hold the separation allowance for such employees so long as they are eligible for recall, during which time the employee may request payment subject to the provisions of the above section. Those re-employed on this basis shall continue to accumulate seniority during the period of layoff. 23.04 In respect of those employees who are eligible for separation allowance under this Article, the Company will continue to contribute to the Group Life Insurance, Dental, Medical Surgical, Major Medical and Hospitalization Plans.

The selection of available jobs, under the provisions of this clause, shall be on the basis of seniority.

An employee who elects an early retirement option shall receive, following completion of the last day of work, a retirement allowance of two weeks' salary for each year of service, plus a prorated amount for any additional partial year of service, to a maximum ceiling of 26 weeks' salary, and, in addition, full-time employees shall receive a single lump-sum payment equivalent to $1,000 for each year less than age 65 to a maximum of $5,000 upon retirement."

Relocation Allowance An employee who is promoted and required by agency policy to relocate his residence shall be granted time off with pay for one workday for this purpose. In addition, the employee shall be granted travel time to the new location based on the most direct route.

Education Allowance Provisions in existing Collective Agreements providing for educational allowances shall be continued in effect.
Vacation Allowance Employees in permanent positions are entitled to vacation with pay. Accrual is based upon straight time hours of working time per calendar month of service and begins on the date of appointment to a permanent position. Increased accruals begin on the first of the month following the month in which the employee qualifies. Accrual for portions of a month shall be in minimum amounts of one (1) hour calculated on the same basis as for partial month compensation pursuant to Section 5.6 of this MOU.

Construction Allowance (a) Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance not to exceed $135.00 per rentable square foot in the Relocation Premises (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any changes to the Tenant Work. If the Total Construction Costs are estimated to exceed the Construction Allowance by more than $5.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises, then no advance of the Construction Allowance shall be made by Landlord until Tenant has first paid to the contractor from its own funds (and provided reasonable evidence thereof to Landlord) the anticipated amount by which the projected Total Construction Costs exceed the amount of the Construction Allowance. Thereafter, Landlord shall pay to Tenant (or at Tenant’s request directly to Tenant’s general contractor) the Construction Allowance in multiple disbursements (but not more than once in any calendar month) following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (i) a request for payment and sworn statements of Tenant and contractor, (ii) final or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Tenant Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, which waivers may be conditioned upon receipt of payment, (iii) the Architect’s certification that the Tenant Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, (iv) with respect to the disbursement of the last 10% of the Construction Allowance, (1) the permanent certificate of occupancy issued for the Relocation Premises, if required by applicable law, (2) the record drawing in CAD format, PDF format and hard copy required by Section 5 above, and (3) an estoppel certificate confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”). Landlord shall pay the amount requested in the applicable Completed Application for Payment to Tenant within 30 days following Tenant’s submission of the Completed Application for Payment. If, however, the Completed Application for Payment is incomplete or incorrect, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant of the same and Landlord’s payment of such request shall be deferred until 30 days following Landlord’s receipt of the corrected Completed Application for Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any disbursement of the Construction Allowance during the pendency of any of the following: (1) Landlord has received written notice of any unpaid claims relating to any portion of the Tenant Work or materials in connection therewith covered by previously funded applications for payment, (2) there is an unbonded lien outstanding against the Building or the Relocation Premises or Tenant’s interest therein by reason of work done, or claimed to have been done, or materials supplied or specifically fabricated, claimed to have been supplied or specifically fabricated, to or for Tenant or the Relocation Premises, (3) the conditions to the advance of the Construction Allowance are not satisfied, or (4) Tenant is in Default under the Lease. (b) The Construction Allowance must be used on Tenant Work performed within the Relocation Premises and the Total Construction Costs and may not be used to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment or as rent abatement, HOWEVER, notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Tenant is not in Default, Tenant may use a portion of the Construction Allowance, not to exceed an amount equal to $35.00 per rentable square foot of the Relocation Premises, to pay for furniture, fixtures or equipment, moving costs, cabling costs, and other soft costs associated with the Relocation Premises. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such soft costs, at Landlord’s request Tenant shall execute and deliver a letter to Landlord confirming the exact amount of the Construction Allowance used to pay for such soft costs. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for such costs, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written request that includes copies of paid invoices or receipts for reimbursement of such costs, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such amounts within 30 days of receipt of Tenant’s request. Tenant shall provide lien waivers as appropriate. No portion of the Construction Allowance may be used as a credit against Rent due under the Lease. (c) The Construction Allowance must be used (i.e. work performed and invoices submitted to Landlord) by June 30, 2020, or the Construction Allowance shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto. (d) If Landlord defaults in Landlord’s obligation to pay the Construction Allowance pursuant to Section 9 of this Exhibit B-1, or any portion thereof, within five (5) days after the date the same is due, then Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a second written notice (“Offset Exercise Notice”) requesting payment of such unpaid amounts and notifying Landlord that Tenant intends to offset against rent if not paid. In the event that Landlord fails to contest in good faith or fully pay such amounts within ten (10) business days after such Offset Exercise Notice is received by Landlord, then provided no Default exists Tenant may withhold and offset such unpaid sums from and against 25% of Base Rent next due until paid.
