reduction (Phase I Reduction) in their base salary for the period commencing October 1, 2002, and continuing until December 31, 2003; and 
  
 WHEREAS, in consideration for the senior executives agreeing to the Phase I Reduction, the Board of Directors of the Employer adopted a Stock Appreciation
Rights Plan (SARs Plan) to provide a benefit to the said executives, in return for their cooperation in accepting the salary reduction; and

twenty-five percent (25%) thereof shall be paid to the Employee in the form of further participation in the SARs Plan; and
