4.0 TERMS OF PAYMENT
4.1 Subject to section 4.4, the COMMISSION will make progress payments on
account of the contribution following receipt and verification of claims
for reimbursement submitted by the EMPLOYER. The claims shall be submitted
on claim forms approved by the COMMISSION and shall be accompanied by such
substantiating documentation as the COMMISSION may require.
4.2 Each claim for reimbursement shall also be accompanied by an Activities
Report, reporting on the progress of the work activities during the period
in respect of which the claim is being made.
4.3 Unless otherwise authorized by the COMMISSION, no claim submitted by an
EMPLOYER under section 4.1 shall be for a period less than 30 days or

4.4 Payments will be made (check one only) [_] monthly [X] quarterly, herein

advances of the contribution, the COMMISSION may, in its discretion, make
advance payments on account of the contribution as follows:
a) the COMMISSION will make advances of its estimated contribution for
each payment period of the work period, based upon a forecast
submitted by the EMPLOYER, satisfactory in scope and detail, of its
cash flow requirements;
b) before making the advance for the third payment period of the work
period, the EMPLOYER shall furnish the COMMISSION with a satisfactory
accounting of the advance for the first payment period. The advance
for the third payment period will be based upon
i) a reconciliation between the substantiated costs for the first
payment period, and the advance for that payment period, and
ii) the estimated costs to be incurred and paid by the EMPLOYER for
the third payment period, as per the forecast of cash flow
requirements for that payment period;

the COMMISSION may, at any time and in its absolute discretion, by notice,
alter the frequency of such advance payments and change them to a monthly
basis.
4.7 Any interest earned on advances of the COMMISSION's contribution shall be
accounted for by the EMPLOYER. Such interest shall be deemed to be part
payment of the contribution and shall be taken into account in the
calculation of the final payment by the COMMISSION, or repayment by the
EMPLOYER, as may be appropriate in the circumstances.
4.8 In the event payments made to the EMPLOYER (including any interest earned
on advances that is deemed to be part payment of the contribution under
section 4.7) exceed the amounts to which the EMPLOYER is properly entitled
under this agreement, the amount of such excess is a debt owing to the
COMMISSION and shall be promptly repaid to the COMMISSION upon receipt of
notice to do so.
4.9 The COMMISSION may withhold payment of any claim or advance pending the
completion of an audit of the EMPLOYER's books and records conducted either
by the COMMISSION or by an independent auditor pursuant to paragraph
6.1(g).
4.10 Costs are eligible only if they are, in the opinion of the COMMISSION,
a) directly related to the agreement, and
b) reasonable.
4.11 Equipment purchase costs exceeding $ 0.00 require the prior written
authorization of the COMMISSION.

for which the EMPLOYER may claim a GST input tax credit or rebate is not
eligible for reimbursement.

displace another worker employed by the EMPLOYER.
5.2 In addition to any other remedy provided for under this agreement, if a
representation and warranty referred to in section 5.1 is not true and
accurate, the COMMISSION may require the EMPLOYER to forthwith repay as a
debt owing to the COMMISSION the amount of the contribution paid towards
the wage cost and the employer's share of employment related costs of the
employee(s) in respect of whom the untrue and inaccurate representation and
warranty was given.

7.1 No contribution paid to any participant who is a member of the immediate
family of the EMPLOYER, or, if the EMPLOYER is a corporation or
unincorporated association, who is a member of the immediate family of an
officer or a director of the corporation or unincorporated association, is
eligible for reimbursement unless the COMMISSION is satisfied that the
hiring of the participant was not the result of favouritism over the other
qualified candidates by reason of membership in the immediate family of the
EMPLOYER or officer or director of the EMPLOYER, as the case may be.
7.2 For the purposes of section 7.1, "immediate family" means father, mother,

-4-

termination of this agreement, if earlier, and if directed to do so by the
COMMISSION, any assets referred to in section 9.1 that have been preserved
by it shall be
a) sold at fair market value and that the funds realized from such sale
be applied to the eligible costs of the agreement to offset the
COMMISSION's contribution to those costs;
b) turned over to another person or organization designated or approved
by the COMMISSION; or
c) disposed of in any other manner as may be determined by the
COMMISSION.

EMPLOYER, or the EMPLOYER is dissolved;

within such time period:
the COMMISSION may, in addition to any remedies otherwise available,
immediately terminate by written notice any obligation to make any further
contribution to the EMPLOYER. All eligible costs up to the date of
termination will be paid by the COMMISSION, however.
10.3 In the event the COMMISSION gives the EMPLOYER written notice of default
pursuant to paragraph 10.2(b), the COMMISSION may suspend any further
payment under this agreement until the end of the period given to the
EMPLOYER to remedy the Event of the Default.
10.4 The fact that the COMMISSION refrains from exercising a remedy it is
entitled to exercise under this agreement shall not be considered to be a
waiver of such right and, furthermore, partial or limited exercise of a
right conferred upon the COMMISSION shall not prevent the COMMISSION in
any way from later exercising any other right or remedy under this
agreement or other applicable law.
