5 V. The provisions of the plan as adopted by a Licensee in the include the McDonald s Licensees Health & Welfare Plan Wrap Document ( Plan ) Only Eligible Employees as defined in the Plan and limited by a Licensee in its are eligible to participate in the Plan. It is the Plan s position that all Eligible Employees must be, or must have been, common law employees of a Licensee. An individual is a common law employee for this purpose only if the Licensee: pays the individual cash wages; treats the individual as an employee for state and federal income and employment tax withholding and reporting purposes; and treats the individual as an employee for purposes of applicable labor laws. Although an individual must satisfy all of the above requirements in order to be considered a common law employee for purposes of the Plan, the fact that an individual satisfies all of the above requirements is not conclusive or binding on the Plan that the individual is a common law employee. The Plan conducts an annual audit to ensure that only Eligible Employees are participating in the Plan. If it is discovered that a Licensee has allowed an individual who is not an Eligible Employee to participate in the Plan, the Licensee will be expected to reimburse the Plan for any amount paid to or on behalf of such individual. In addition, if a Licensee fails to permit the annual eligibility audit, fails to provide requested information, and/or engages in fraud or intentionally misrepresents material facts in connection with the administration of the plan, including whether an individual is an Eligible Employee, the Licensee s (and therefore its employees ) participation in the Plan may be terminated and the Licensee may be barred from future participation in the Plan.
