Kingsway Pension Surplus

 


KINGSWAY PENSION SURPLUS


This action concerned surplus amounts in the Pension Plan for Employees of Kingsway Transport Limited ("Plan"). It was certified on December 4, 2001 by the Honourable Mr. Justice Cumming of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The Application would permit payment of the surplus to CF Kingsway Inc. and to Plan members, former members, past members and beneficiaries ("Sharing Group"). For more specific details please review the Notice of Application and the Surplus Sharing Agreement. Remarkably, 94% of the Sharing Group agreed with the terms of the Agreement.

On January 21, 2002, the Honourable Mr. Justice Nordheimer of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice issued his Judgment (Endorsement) allowing the Plan surplus to be shared between CF Kingsway Inc. and the Sharing Group in an approximate split of 43.7% and 56.3% respectively net of expenses.

On May 1, 2002, Nicholas Le Pan, the Superintendent of the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada consented to the distribution of the Plan surplus, valued at approximately $12,400,000 (plus interest) to CF Kingsway Inc. and to the Sharing Group. Payments were distributed in August 2002.
