Basic entitlement 7.4.2(a) After twelve months continuous service, parents are entitled to a combined total of 52 weeks unpaid parental leave on a shared basis in relation to the birth or adoption of their child. For females, maternity leave may be taken and for males, paternity leave may be taken. Adoption leave may be taken in the case of adoption.
Benefit Entitlement When an employee is on a WCB claim all benefits of the Agreement will continue to accrue. However, an employee off work on WCB claim shall receive net wages as defined by (A) above, and benefits equalling but not to exceed their normal entitlement had they not suffered a compensable injury. For the first twenty (20) work days on claim, an employee will accrue paid holidays and vacation credits. Once the claim exceeds twenty (20) work days, paid holidays and vacation credits will not accrue. However, unused vacation credits accrued prior to the claim shall not be lost as a result of this clause.
Holiday Entitlement Employees who are laid off within seven (7) working days (except employees subject to dismissal through cause) prior to a Statutory Holiday occurring shall be entitled to such Statutory Holiday with pay. Also, employees who are absent either the day before or the day after a Statutory Holiday or both shall be entitled to such Statutory Holiday with pay provided they are absent for a reason of illness or accident.
No Entitlements (1) Neither the Plan nor the Award Agreement confer on the Participant any right or entitlement to receive compensation, including, without limitation, any base salary or incentive compensation, in any specific amount for any future fiscal year (including, without limitation, any grants of future Awards under the Plan), nor impact in any way the Company Group’s determination of the amount, if any, of the Participant’s base salary or incentive compensation. This Award of RSUs made under this Award Agreement is completely independent of any other Awards or grants and is made at the sole discretion of the Company. The RSUs do not constitute salary, wages, regular compensation, recurrent compensation, pensionable compensation or contractual compensation for the year of grant or any prior or later years and shall not be included in, nor have any effect on or be deemed earned in any respect, in connection with the determination of employment-related rights or benefits under law or any employee benefit plan or similar arrangement provided by the Company Group (including, without limitation, severance, termination of employment and pension benefits), unless otherwise specifically provided for under the terms of such plan or arrangement or by the Company Group. The benefits provided pursuant to the RSUs are in no way secured, guaranteed or warranted by the Company Group. (2) The RSUs are awarded to the Participant by virtue of the Participant’s employment with, and services performed for, the Company Group. The Plan or the Award Agreement does not constitute an employment agreement. Nothing in the Plan or the Award Agreement shall modify the terms of the Participant’s employment, including, without limitation, the Participant’s status as an “at will” employee of the Company Group, if applicable. (3) Subject to any applicable employment agreement, the Company reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment, including the division, subsidiary or department in which the Participant is employed. None of the Plan or the Award Agreement, the grant of RSUs, nor any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Plan or the Award Agreement shall be deemed to create or confer on the Participant any right to be retained in the employ of the Company Group, or to interfere with or to limit in any way the right of the Company Group to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time. Moreover, the Separation from Service provisions set forth in Section (C) or (D), as applicable, only apply to the treatment of the RSUs in the specified circumstances and shall not otherwise affect the Participant’s employment relationship. By accepting this Award Agreement, the Participant waives any and all rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of the Participant’s office or employment for any reason whatsoever to the extent such rights arise or may arise from the Participant’s ceasing to have rights under, or be entitled to receive payment in respect of, any unvested RSUs that are cancelled or forfeited as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements, including by reason of the operation of the terms of the Plan, this Award Agreement or the provisions of any statute or law to taxation. This waiver applies whether or not such termination amounts to a wrongful discharge or unfair dismissal.
Overtime Entitlement (a) An employee will be entitled to compensation for authorized overtime in excess of: (1) the scheduled daily hours; or (2) the maximum daily hours for those employees on flextime; or (3) the agreed averaging period. (b) For the purposes of calculating the hourly rate for overtime, an employee's biweekly rate shall be divided by 70. (c) Overtime shall be compensated in 30-minute increments; however, employees shall not be entitled to any compensation for periods of overtime of less than five minutes per day.
Entitlement For the purpose of calculating six days per calendar year, one day shall be considered to be one day regardless of the regularly scheduled workday. Calculation for part-time employees and partial days will be on a prorated basis.
Vacation Entitlement i) A transferring employee will accrue vacation in accordance with the collective agreement of the designated employer. ii) A transferring employee will have pre-approved vacation requests honoured. iii) Vacation entitlement not used by the employee at the time of transfer shall transfer with the employee to the designated employer, if applicable. iv) Vacation scheduling will be in accordance with the applicable collective agreement and the practice of the designated employer.
Entitlements Every employee (a) who, (i) becomes the parent of a child, or (ii) assumes actual care and custody of a newborn child or adopts a child under the law of a province; and (b) who has completed seven (7) consecutive months of employment; and (c) who submits to the Employer an application in writing for parental leave where possible at least four (4) weeks before the day specified in the application as the day on which the employee intends to commence the leave; is entitled to, and shall be granted parental leave, consisting of a continuous period of up to thirty-seven (37) weeks.
Determination of Entitlement (a) Where there has been a written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.01(b), then as soon as is reasonably practicable (but in any event not later than 60 days) after final disposition of the relevant Proceeding, a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (i) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change of Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification). (b) If entitlement to indemnification is to be determined by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(ii), such Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee, and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If entitlement to indemnification is to be determined by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i)(C) (or if Indemnitee requests that such selection be made by the Board), such Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Company in which case the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within 10 days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.01(b) hereof and the final disposition of the Proceeding, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 5.02(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 6.01(a) of this Agreement, the Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing). (c) The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of any Independent Counsel serving under this Agreement.
Entitlement Orders If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive any Entitlement Order from the Assignee-Secured Party with respect to any 2023-A Collateral Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such Entitlement Order without further consent by the Transferor, the Initial Secured Party or any other Person. If at any time the Assignee-Secured Party notifies the Securities Intermediary in writing that the Lien of the Indenture has been released and all Issuer Obligations have been paid, the Securities Intermediary shall thereafter comply with Entitlement Orders with respect to each 2023-A Collateral Account from the Initial Secured Party without further consent by the Assignee-Secured Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the Securities Intermediary receives conflicting orders or instructions from the Assignee-Secured Party and the Initial Secured Party, the Securities Intermediary will follow the orders or instructions of the Assignee-Secured Party and not the Initial Secured Party.
