4 and 502 of ERISA (29 U.S.C. §§ 1002, 1003 and 1132). 

Plaintiff alleges that Defendant is signatory to collective bargaining agreement. 

Specifically, Defendant became subject to all the terms and conditions of the 46 Counties 

Carpenters Master Agreement by virtue of signing the Valley Master Agreement with the Union, 

which incorporated by reference the 46 Counties Carpenters Master Agreement. Plaintiff contends 

that Defendant, by agreeing to be bound to the above-referenced Agreements, promised to 

contribute and pay to Plaintiff Trust Fund the hourly amounts required by said Agreements for each 

hour paid for or worked by any of its employees who performed any work covered by the 

Agreements. Plaintiff also contends that Defendant agreed to pay liquidated damages and interest

failed, neglected or refused to make timely fringe benefit contributions as required by the Collective 

Bargaining Agreement and Trust Agreements, and there is now due and owing the unpaid 

contributions. Plaintiff further contend that Defendant has failed to pay amounts to the Trust Fund 

owed under a previous settlement agreement entered into on or about August 23, 2004 and the Trust 

Fund is seeking enforcement of that agreement. Plaintiff further seeks an injunction compelling 

Defendant to submit to an audit of its books and records to determine if it timely and accurately 

made fringe benefit contributions and for an order requiring Defendant to pay any and all amount 

delinquencies found due under the audit as well as interest and liquidated damages thereon.
