24.3(1) The other plan must

for by

Part 5 of the plan rules to exiting participants or for benefits and

entitlements that are not less favourable for those persons in respect of

(

i) pensionable service accumulated to the

time of exit, and

(ii) pensionable salaries earned during

participation in the Plan and in the other plan,

(

b) provide in effect that all service of or with

liable under subsection (2) are to be deducted from the assets apportioned

subsection (3), the employer may elect in writing to the Provincial

Treasurer, as soon as practicable and in any case before the time of

transfer, to reimburse the plan fund directly for the costs for which the

employer is liable under subsection (2), in which case the employer must

pay those costs within 30 days of being charged for them by the Provincial

Treasurer.

Definitions for calculation purposes

24.81(1) The following letters designate the amounts used in the

calculations under this

section and

section 24.82, as determined in a

written actuarial valuation that is prepared for the purposes of the exit

as at the time of exit and that is approved by the Minister after

consultation with the Board:

(a) "A" means the Plan's accrued liabilities;

(b) "B" means the Plan's accrued liabilities in respect

of the exiting persons;

(c) "C" means the market value of the Plan's assets.

(2) For the purposes of subsection (1)(a), except so far as they

relate to the exiting persons, the Plan's accrued liabilities include the

amount, if any, by which liabilities in respect of service that is in the

course of being purchased over time and that, at the time of exit, has not

yet been paid for exceed the present value of the outstanding contributions

in respect of that service.

(3) For the purposes of subsection (1)(

a) and (b), if so warranted

in the Minister's opinion, the Plan's accrued liabilities in respect of

exiting persons are to be calculated by limiting the pensionable salaries

of exiting persons to the maximum allowed by the compensation guidelines of

employers to whom the Public Service Act applies.

(4) The letter "D", as used in the calculation under

section 24.82,

means the lesser of

(

a) the amount specified in a written actuarial

valuation, approved by the Minister, of accrued liabilities in the closed

plan as at the time of exit in respect of members of the closed plan who,

at the time of their last termination, were employees of the employer, and

(

b) the amount

if positive or, if not positive, 0.

Amount of assets for transfer

24.82(1) The assets to be apportioned to the employer and

transferred to the other plan as at the time of transfer are equal to

plus interest from the time of exit to the time of transfer.

(2) Unless

section 24.8(4) applies, the assets to be apportioned and

transferred under subsection (1) are to be reduced by an amount equal to

the costs referred to in

section 24.8(2).

(3) The assets to be transferred from the Plan to the closed plan

are equal to D plus interest from the time of exit to the time of transfer.

(4) Interest under subsections (1) and (3) is payable on the basis

of the market rate of return earned by the plan fund, net of those

investment costs that are specified by the Provincial Treasurer for that

purpose, from the time of exit until the latest date to which that rate is

available, and on the basis of the rate of return earned by the

Consolidated Cash Investment Trust Fund for the remainder of the period to

the time of transfer.

Order in Council effectuating transfers

24.83 The Lieutenant Governor in Council may, if satisfied that

this Part has been met, order the transfers of assets referred to in

those transfers.

(

b) on the basis of a prorated interest in the

investments of the plan fund valued at market value, or

(

c) as a combination of the forms set out in clauses

(

a) and (b),

and where a transfer would require a significant liquidation of the

assets in a pooled fund, the transfer may include securities held by the

pooled fund.

(2) Where any assets transferred to the other plan under

section

24.83 are interests in a pooled fund, the other plan must redeem those

interests in accordance with the guidelines established for the pooled fund

within one year of the time of transfer or within such longer period as is

agreed in writing between the employer and the Provincial Treasurer.

(3) The guidelines referred to in subsection (2) are exempt from the

Regulations Act.

Refund of excess contributions less benefit payments

24.85(1) At the earliest practicable time after the time of

transfer,

(

a) if the amount resulting from the application of

subsection (2) is positive, the Provincial Treasurer shall pay from the

Plan to the other plan, and

(

b) if that amount is negative, the legal owners of the

other plan shall pay from that plan to the Plan,

an amount equal to that amount.

(2) The amount referred to in subsection (1) is equal to the amount

(

a) any contributions remitted after the time of exit

to the Plan in respect of each calendar month representing contributions

paid by the employer and exiting persons and other employees of the

employer, less

(

b) any benefits paid after the time of exit from the

Plan in respect of that calendar month to exiting persons and other

employees of the employer,

with interest from the end of the next month to the date of the

payment referred to in subsection (1), then aggregated over all the months

in the period from the time of exit to the date of that payment.

(3) Interest under subsection (2) is payable on the basis of the

market rate of return earned by the plan fund, net of those investment

costs that are specified by the Provincial Treasurer for that purpose, from

the month end referred to in subsection (2) until the latest date to which

that rate is available and on the basis of the rate of return earned by the

Consolidated Cash Investment Trust Fund for the remainder of the period

referred to in subsection (2).

Indemnific-ation

24.9(1) Before any assets are transferred under this Part, the

employer and the legal owners of the pension fund of the other plan must

indemnify the Crown in a written form acceptable to the Minister with

respect to any claims that may be made by any person that arise directly or

indirectly from the exit, including the fact of the exit's being

retroactive.

(2) The legal owners of the pension fund of the other plan indemnify

(

a) the Board and the members of the Board for any

damages or legal and other expenses incurred in defending any claim against

the Board or any Board member that arises directly or indirectly from the

exit, and

(

b) the plan fund and the Plan's administrator and

trustee for any claims made by any person that arise directly or indirectly

from the exit.

(3) Subject to subsection (2), an indemnification by subsection

(2)(

a) covers anything done by the Board or Board member, as the case may

be, in good faith in the exercise of powers, duties and functions under

this Part.

(4) To the extent permissible by law, any liability under an

indemnity under this

section by the other pension fund's legal owners is to

be met from that pension fund itself.

Transfer of documents and records

24.91 As soon as is practicable, the Minister shall transfer to the

administrator of the other plan, at the employer's cost, those documents

and records that the Minister holds as the administrator of the Plan, that

pertain to exiting persons and other employees of and relating to that

employer and that are needed for the administration of the other plan.

References in matrimonial property orders

24.92 Where there is a reference to the Plan in a matrimonial

property order in respect of an exiting person, that reference is to be

treated, with effect from the time of exit, as a reference to the other

plan.

Liability for benefits

24.93 The Crown is to have no liability in respect of benefits to

be provided by the other plan and the pension fund of the other plan is to

assume all such liability.

Extinguish-ment of rights

persons and other employees of and relating to that employer in relation to

the Plan are extinguished.
