REPRESENTATION AND COMMITTEES (The following clauses will appear in all collective agreements replacing any provisions related to Representation and Committees (including Professional Responsibility) that existed in the Hospital's expiring collective agreement:)
UNION REPRESENTATION AND COMMITTEES (a) It is mutually agreed that where negotiations are conducted on a joint basis between any or all of the Nursing Homes in the Extendicare chain in the Province of Ontario, the Union will elect or otherwise select a negotiating committee consisting of one
(1) representative from each Nursing Home.
(b) If negotiations are carried on individually for any or all of the Nursing Homes in the Extendicare chain in the Province of Ontario, it is agreed that the Union will elect or otherwise select a negotiating committee consisting of up to two (2) employees from the full-time bargaining unit, and two (2) employees from the part-time bargaining unit, one (1) of which shall be the Union Chairperson.
(c) All members of the committee shall be regular employees of the Employer who have completed their probationary period.
(d) The Nursing Home members of the Committee will be paid by the Employer for time used during normally scheduled working hours in negotiation of this Agreement or its successor including all conciliation proceedings but excluding any Arbitration proceedings. Employees on the evening and night shift shall receive paid time off for the actual day of the negotiating meeting.
(e) Where the parties participate in group bargaining, the Employer agrees to provide alternative days off in the case where an employee is bargaining on a day off. In the case of a part time employee such alternative days will be capped at two per calendar week. These bargaining days will be treated as days worked for which the employee will receive pay for the hours she would have regularly worked.
7.02 The Employer will recognize a Union Administrative Committee which shall consist of a Union Chairperson and up to three (3) additional committee persons from each bargaining unit, all selected from the members of their respective bargaining units. No more than two (2) committee members shall meet with the Employer at any one time. The Employer shall be advised of the names of members of this committee and shall be notified of any changes from time to time. All members of the committee shall be employees of the Employer who have completed their probationary period.
(a) The Union acknowledges that the members of the Union Administrative Committee must continue to perform their regular duties, and that so far as possible all activities of the committee will be carried on outside the regular working hours of the members thereof, unless otherwise mutually arranged.
(b) Notwithstanding the above, the Employer agrees that requested time off during working hours for Union Administrative activities will not be arbitrarily withheld.
(c) The Employer shall pay representatives and Committee members their respective wages for all time lost from regularly scheduled hours investigating and/or processing grievances, up to but not including the arbitration stage.
Investment Representations (i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, the “Securities”) for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof.
(ii) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D, and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.
(iii) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities.
(iv) The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act.
(v) The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.
(vi) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.
(vii) The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard, the Purchaser understands that the SEC has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after an initial Business Combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(viii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated with investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investments in the Securities.
(ix) The Purchaser understands that the Private Placement Warrants shall bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant Agreement.
