and the bank obligated under the letter of credit satisfy the

requirements of this section.

(3) A letter of credit may not be used for the purposes of

section

48 or this section, and therefore lacks the potential to qualify as a

conforming letter of credit, unless the letter of credit (including

one as renewed)

(

a) is an irrevocable and unconditional standby letter of

credit,

(

b) was issued by a bank that was an issuer,

(

c) is made out to the benefit of a fund holder in trust for

the depositing of it, and of any money paid under it, into

the pension fund,

(

d) specifies the time from when it becomes effective and,

subject to subsection (5), its expiry time,

(

e) makes the issuer that issued it contractually liable, if

money is drawn down under it, for paying out money

under its terms,

(

f) is issued in Canadian currency, and

(

g) provides that

(

i) on the drawdown of money under it, the obligated

issuer will, forthwith after the drawdown demand,

pay to the holder the amount, not exceeding its

face amount, that is demanded under the

drawdown, without further inquiry,

(ii) the insolvency or bankruptcy of the employer is to

have no effect on the rights or the obligations of

the obligated issuer or the holder under it,

(iii) immediately following each expiry time, it will, in

accordance with subsequent provisions of this

section, be renewed, replaced or allowed to expire

without renewal or replacement,

(iv) the obligated issuer must, if applicable, give the

minimum 90 days' notices required by subsection

(9), and

(

v) it may not be

(

A) assigned except by the issuer to another

issuer, or

(

B) amended except

(

I) on a renewal to increase or, in

accordance with subsection (7), to

decrease the amount covered by it,

(II) where a successor issuer has taken over

the rights and obligations under it from a

predecessor issuer, to change the name

of that predecessor to that of that

successor, or

(III) following an assignment, to reflect the

change in issuer, if considered

advisable.

(4) To avail itself of subsection (2), when a letter of credit

intended as a conforming letter of credit is to be initially issued,

an employer must, at least 90 days before the day when the next

in the series of solvency deficiency payments following its issue

date falls due, forward the original or a photocopy of the

executed letter of credit for the Superintendent's review and

approval.

(5) The expiry time of a conforming letter of credit must be not

later than one year from the time it takes effect following its

issue.

(6) At least 90 days before an existing conforming letter of

credit is due to expire, an employer must make known to the

holder and the Superintendent whether, at expiry, the letter of

credit is to be

(

a) renewed, by giving them notice of that fact and of the

amount for which is to be renewed,

(

b) replaced, by forwarding the original or a photocopy of

the replacing executed letter of credit for the

Superintendent's review and approval and notifying the

holder of that transmission, or

(

c) allowed to expire without renewal or replacement on

account of its no longer being needed, by giving them

notice of that fact,

and, so far as applicable, by following the respective process set

out in subsection (7) or (8), as the case may be.

(7) Subject to subsection (15)(b), if the amount for which a

conforming letter of credit is to be renewed or replaced will be

less than the amount covered by the letter of credit to be renewed

or replaced, the employer must

(

a) provide to the Superintendent, along with the document

sent to the Superintendent under subsection (6)(

a) or

(b), a current actuarial valuation report showing that

after the reduction the funding requirements of

section

48 and this

section will continue to be met,

(

b) remit to the holder, along with the notice sent to the

holder under subsection (6)(

a) or (b), a portion of the

amount covered by the letter of credit to be renewed or

replaced and at the same time notify the Superintendent

of that remittance with the amount, or

(

c) implement a combination of clauses (

a) and (b),

in which case the amount of the renewing or replacing letter of

credit may be reduced to the extent indicated in that actuarial

valuation report, by the amount of the remittance under clause

(

b) or by the combination of both, as the case may be.

(8) If a conforming letter of credit is to be allowed to expire

without being renewed or replaced, the employer must, at least

90 days before its expiry, provide to the Superintendent, along

with the notice to the Superintendent referred to in subsection

(6)(c), a current actuarial valuation report showing that after

expiry the funding requirements of

section 48 will continue to be

met.

(9) If the obligated issuer decides that it is not going to renew

the conforming letter of credit, it shall notify the employer, the

holder and the Superintendent of that fact at least 90 days before

its expiry.

(10) The Superintendent shall, within 30 days after receiving a

letter of credit or copy forwarded under subsection (4) or (6)(

b) that receives approval, return it to the employer along with an

acknowledgement that the letter of credit conforms.

(11) The employer must forward the approved original

conforming letter of credit to the holder, along with a copy of the

Superintendent's acknowledgement of conformity,

(

a) if the letter of credit is being initially issued, on or

before the day when the first in the series of solvency

deficiency payments to which the letter of credit relates

following its issue date falls due, or

(

b) if the letter of credit is replacing another, at least 15

days before expiry.

(12) If the expiring conforming letter of credit is to be renewed,

the employer must forward to the holder and to the

Superintendent a copy of the document renewing it at least 15

days before expiry.

(13) Notwithstanding anything in this section, if the bank

obligated under a conforming letter of credit ceases to be an

issuer, the letter of credit may continue to be used for all the

purposes of this

section as a conforming letter of credit, and that

bank is deemed to remain an obligated issuer, until its expiry, but

it may not be renewed.

(14) If, 14 days before expiry, the holder has not received notice

that the pension plan is or is about to be wholly terminated and

still has not received all the documents that the employer was

required by subsection (6) and, so far as applicable, subsection

(7) or (8), to send to the holder, the holder shall on the next

business day draw down the full amount of the letter of credit.

(15) If the pension plan is or is about to be wholly terminated,

the employer must

(

a) maintain the letter of credit in force, and

(

b) if necessary, renew or replace it without any decrease in

the amount covered, and thereafter maintain it,

until the Superintendent has approved the termination report and

the employer has received permission to cancel under subsection

(16)(

a) or made the remittance under subsection (17) or

drawdown has been effectuated under subsection (17).

(16) At the time of notifying the employer that the termination

report is approved, the Superintendent shall also notify the

employer, with a copy to the holder, that based on that report

(

a) the plan is fully solvent and the letter of credit may be

cancelled, or

(

b) there is still a solvency deficiency,

and, if clause (

b) applies, state the amount of the solvency

deficiency that must be remitted to the holder.

(17) If applicable, the employer must, within 14 days after the

date of the Superintendent's notice to the employer of the

solvency deficiency under subsection (16), ensure that the holder

has received the amount so notified and the holder, if the

remittance is not so received, shall, on the next business day after

that 14-day period ends, draw down the lesser of the full amount

of the letter of credit and the amount specified in that notice.

(18) A drawdown under a conforming letter of credit is to be

made by the holder in writing or in such other form as the letter

of credit allows.

(19) Nothing in this

section is to be taken to reduce any

employer's liabilities under

section 73 of the Act or the rules

prescribed in relation to that section.

(20) Where the employer is a participating employer under a

multi-unit plan, that employer, instead of providing the

documentation required by this

section to the holder, must

provide it to the administrator, who shall then forthwith forward

it to the holder.

(21) If the obligated issuer

(

a) is about to assign the conforming letter of credit to

another issuer, as allowed by subsection (3)(g)(v)(A), or

(

b) is a predecessor issuer whose rights and obligations

under the conforming letter of credit are about to be

taken over by a successor issuer,

both issuers shall give notice of the proposed transaction to the

Superintendent and to the holder.

(22) Subject to subsection (18), a notification that is to be given

to or by the Superintendent or any other person under this

section, and any approval that is to be given by the

Superintendent, must be given in writing.

(23) The employer must either

(

a) make interest payments related to the solvency

deficiency payments secured by the conforming letter of

credit monthly within 30 days after the end of the month

to which the interest payments relate at the interest rate

used to establish each solvency deficiency, or

(

b) include in the letter of credit the interest payments

referred to in clause (

a) for the period covered by the

letter of credit.

(24) The employer must pay any fees related to the

establishment and maintenance of the conforming letter of credit

separately, and those fees may not be included in the letter of

credit or charged as a cost to the pension plan.

(25) When a person becomes entitled to receive a benefit

payment, other than an ongoing pension payment, from the

pension plan and while some or all of the solvency deficiency

payments remain covered by a conforming letter of credit, the

employer must

(

a) make one lump sum payment to the plan in an amount

that is equal to any transfer deficiency that exists and to

the extent that it relates to the person, before making the

payment to or on behalf of the person, or

(

b) include a payment in the same amount in the next

remittance of contributions.

(26) A conforming letter of credit is not an asset of the plan for

the purposes of determining its solvency ratio or the going

concern assets.

Section 49 is amended by adding the following after

subsection (5):

(6) For the purposes of this

section and

section 50 of the Act, the

issue of a conforming letter of credit meets the requirement for the

remitting of such amount of contributions as is covered by the letter

of credit.

Section 55(1) is amended by adding ", 48.1" after "48".

Section 60.1 is amended by striking out "are" and

substituting "is".
