ARTICLE 2: RECOGNITION 2.1 Recognition. The NHL recognizes the NHLPA as the exclusive bargaining representative of all present and future Players employed as such in the League by the Clubs, but not including any other Club employees. The NHL and NHLPA agree that notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent consistent with this Agreement, such Players, acting individually or through Certified Agents, and Clubs may, on an individual basis, bargain with respect to and agree upon an individual Player Salary and Bonuses over and above the minimum requirements established herein and other provisions that are not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
2.2 NHLPA Meetings. The NHLPA may hold meetings with the Players of each Club during Training Camp and the Regular Season, provided the arrangements for each meeting have been cleared through the General Manager of the Club involved and that no such meeting shall interfere with the training, practice or operation of the Club. Clearance shall not be unreasonably withheld.
