On August 7, the Supreme Court of Canada, in a landmark decision, dismissed the appeal of Nolan v. Kerry (Canada) Inc.  The case arose following Kerry Canada's decision to restructure its employee pension plan by converting it from a defined benefit (DB) to a defined contribution (DC) plan, and to pay plan expenses from the pension fund.  Fasken Martineau represented Kerry Canada. 

Please join us for a seminar on this topic.  You will hear from lawyers who represented Kerry Canada in this landmark case as they take you through the issues and implications of this case for your organization.

Topics:

• Impact on employers with pension plans.
• Plan expenses: The final word on when they can be paid from the plan.
• DB and DC contribution holidays: Is your plan properly structured?
• Who should pay legal costs in pension litigation?
