<PAGE>  22EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         THIS  EMPLOYMENT  AGREEEMENT is entered into by and between Evan J.
Griffith,  Jr.  ("Griffith")and Chugach Electric  Association,  Inc. an Alaska
electrical  cooperative  association  headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska
("Chugach" or "Employer"), to be effective on and as of May 1, 2002.

         WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS,  Chugach is engaged in the business of  production,
transmission  and  distribution  of electricity in Alaska;

         WHEREAS, Griffith has skills and experience in electric utility
management generally and with the business and technology associated with the
production, transmission and distribution of electricity; and

         WHEREAS, Chugach desires to obtain Griffith's services as the Chief
Executive Officer of its Business, and Griffith desires to be employed in that
position by Chugach;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Employment. Chugach hereby employs Griffith as its Chief Executive
Officer, and Griffith hereby accepts such employment upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.

         2. Duties.

                  a. Griffith shall serve as Chugach's Chief Executive Officer
and shall perform his services as such within the framework of Chugach's Bylaws,
policies, procedures and goals as Chugach's Board of Directors shall from time
to time determine, including but not limited to the following:

                  (i.)     Board Policy 106, Delegations of Authority from the
                           Board of Directors to the Chief Executive Officer,
                           Appendix A hereto;

                  (ii.)    Board Policy 107, Board of Directors - Chief
                           Executive Officer Relationship, Appendix B hereto;

                  (iii.)   Board Policy 118, Delegation of Certain of the
                           Secretary's and Treasurer's Duties to the Chief
                           Executive Officer, Appendix C hereto; and

                  (iv.)    Chief Executive Officer Position Description,
                           Appendix D hereto.

In such capacity, Griffith (i) shall exercise general supervisory responsibility
and management authority over Chugach and all of its controlled affiliates and
(ii) shall perform such other duties commensurate with his position as may be
assigned to him from time to time by the Chugach Board of Directors.

                  b. Griffith shall devote substantially all his business time,
attention and energies to the performance of his duties and functions under this
Employment Agreement and shall not during the term of his employment hereunder
be engaged in any other substantial business activity for gain, profit or other
pecuniary advantage. Griffith shall faithfully, loyally and diligently perform
his assigned duties and functions and shall not engage in any activities
whatsoever that conflict with his obligations to Chugach during the term of his
employment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the foregoing
shall be construed so as to limit or prohibit personal investments by Griffith;
provided that such investments shall not amount to a controlling interest in any
entity (other than trusts, limited partnerships or other entities adopted by
Griffith for estate planning purposes). Griffith also agrees that he will not
participate in any political activity that will or may reflect adversely upon
Chugach without obtaining the prior consent of Chugach's Board of Directors.

                  c. Chugach shall furnish Griffith with an office and other
facilities at Chugach's headquarters location and services that are suitable to
his position and adequate for the performance of his duties and functions
hereunder.

         3. Term. The term of this Employment Agreement shall commence on the
date hereof (the "Commencement Date") and, unless terminated earlier pursuant to
paragraph 10 hereof, shall continue through March 31, 2006 with a one year
option wherein either party may elect to renegotiate the agreement or do
nothing, in which case the option year is in effect through March 31, 2007 (the
"Initial Term"), thereafter this contract shall continue unless and until such
time as (i) either party hereto notifies the other, upon sixty (60) days prior
written notice, that this Employment Agreement will be terminated at the end of
the current annual term or the later expiration of such sixty day notice period,
or (ii) Griffith's employment is otherwise terminated pursuant to paragraph 10
hereof (the "Extended Term") (the Initial Term, together with the Extended Term,
if any, being referred to herein as the "Employment Term").

         4. Compensation. Chugach shall pay to Griffith, in consideration of and
as compensation for the services agreed to be rendered by Griffith hereunder,
the following:

                  a. Base Salary. During the Employment Term, Chugach shall pay
to Griffith an annual salary of One Hundred Eighty-Eight Thousand, Severn
Hundred Eighteen Dollars ($188,718 as adjusted for CPI) (the " Base Salary").
The Base Salary shall, subject to the modifications contained in the Performance
Appraisal/Bonus Program section contained below, be adjusted annually each
January based upon the Anchorage CPI-U (July statistic) published by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with
Chugach's normal payroll schedule, less withholdings required by law or
authorized by Griffith.

                  b. Performance Appraisal/Bonus Program. Chugach and Griffith
agree that Griffith's total compensation under this Employment Agreement shall
be tied directly to his performance. Accordingly, the parties agree that
Griffith and Chugach's Board of Directors, by mutual agreement, shall by January
31 of each year develop reasonable objectives ("stated objectives") by which to
measure Griffith's performance for the upcoming year. Each year in January, the
parties shall then review the agreed upon stated objectives for the past year
and determine whether Griffith has met or failed to meet the stated objectives.

                           (i) Bonus of Meeting or Exceeding Stated Objectives.
In the event that Griffith meets or exceeds the stated objectives, he shall be
entitled to a bonus of up to twenty percent (20%) of his Base Salary. The exact
percentage of the bonus (`bonus amount") shall be at the discretion of the Board
of Directors in consideration of the level of goal achievement including both
quantitative and qualitative measures of merit.

                           (ii) Salary Reduction for Failing to Meet Stated
Objectives. In the event that the Board of Directors determines that Griffith
has substantially failed to meet the stated objectives, the Board of Directors
is entitled to reduce Griffith's Base Salary for the upcoming year by an amount
not to exceed ten percent (10%) of the previous year's Base Salary. The precise
amount of the salary reduction shall be at the discretion of the Board of
Directors in consideration of the extent of Griffith's failure to meet the
stated objectives and taking into account any mitigating factors outside of
Griffith's control which substantially affected his ability to meet the stated
objectives.

                           (iii) Reversion to Base Salary After Reduction for
Failure to Meet Stated Objectives. In the event Griffith's base salary is
reduced for failure to meet the stated objectives, his salary shall revert to
the previous year's Base Salary in January of the next year (e.g., 2002 - Base
Salary of $185,000 as corrected for CPI in accordance with paragraph 4.a).

                           (iv) Future Deferred Compensation Plans. In the event
that the Board of Directors adopts and makes available a new deferred
compensation plan during the Employment Term under which eligible employees may
defer portions of their income (and thereby defer tax liability associated with
that income), Griffith shall be entitled to participate in such plan(s) to the
extent that he is eligible to do so. If the plan permits, Griffith may defer
some or all of the bonus amounts, leave or other compensation payable to him
pursuant to this Employment Agreement.

         c. Use of Company Vehicles. During the Employment Term, Griffith shall
be permitted to use Chugach vehicles on company business on a de minimus basis.
Griffith shall not be entitled to a company vehicle for personal use.

         5. Benefits. During the Employment Term, Griffith shall be entitled to
participate in all group health, pension, 401(k), 457 and other benefit plans
maintained by Chugach and provided to its salaried administrative personnel, on
the same terms as apply to participation therein by such personnel generally
(except as otherwise provided herein). Further, during the Employment Term,
Griffith shall be entitled to participate in all fringe benefit programs and
shall receive all perquisites if and to the extent that Chugach's Board of
Directors establishes and makes such benefits and perquisites available to its
salaried administrative personnel generally, including, but not limited to,
Employer-paid long-term disability insurance and life insurance coverage.

         6. Expenses. During the Employment Term, Chugach shall reimburse
Griffith for all reasonable travel, entertainment and other business expenses
incurred or paid by Griffith in performing his duties and functions hereunder,
subject to Griffith's accounting for and reporting such expenses pursuant to
applicable Chugach policies.

         7. Holidays, Sick Leave and Annual Leave. Griffith shall be entitled to
such holidays, sick leave and annual leave as are provided to its salaried
administrative personnel generally, which paid time off work shall continue to
accrue at the same rate(s) as Griffith accrued holidays, sick leave and annual
leave as an Executive Manager. . For example, Griffith shall continue to accrue
annual leave at the rate of 9.23 hours per pay period (i.e., at the rate of 30
days per year). Griffith shall carry over to this Employment Agreement all
annual leave previously accrued as of the Commencement Date of this Employment
Agreement, provided, however, that all such carried over annual leave shall be
valued at Griffith's rate of compensation as Executive Manager immediately prior
to the Commencement Date. Additionally, Griffith shall either use or cash out
annual leave that accrues to his account after the Commencement Date so that he
does not add more six (6) weeks of annual leave to his pre-Commencement Date
annual leave balance. Chugach agrees to reconsider this six-week cap on
additions to Griffith's annual leave balance if Griffith is unable to take leave
for business-related reasons. Griffith shall be entitled to such vacations,
taken at such time or times, as Griffith shall determine in his reasonable
discretion, consistent with the performance of Griffith's obligations hereunder
and the direction of Chugach's Board of Directors.

         8. Non-Competition. During the Employment Term and for a period of one
(1) year thereafter, Griffith shall not enter into or participate in any
business competitive to the business carried on by Chugach in Southcentral
Alaska or at such additional locations, if any, outside Southcentral Alaska at
which Chugach conducts business. (This paragraph 8 does not apply to a
Termination Other Than For Cause pursuant to paragraph 10(b) hereof.) As used
herein, the term "business competitive to the business carried on by Chugach"
means any business that involves the production, transmission or distribution of
electricity, and the words "Southcentral Alaska" mean a business conducted in
whole or in part within the boundaries of the Municipality of Anchorage, the
Kenai Peninsula Borough, or the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. The provisions of
this paragraph 8 shall survive the expiration and/or termination of this
Employment Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction should declare any or
all of this provision unenforceable because of any unreasonable restriction of
duration and/or geographical area, then such court shall have the express
authority to reform this provision to provide for reasonable restrictions and/or
to grant Chugach such other relief, at law or in equity, as are reasonably
necessary to protect its interests.

         9. Confidential Information. During the Employment Term and for so long
thereafter as the information remains confidential, Griffith will not use for
his own advantage or disclose to any unauthorized person any confidential
information relating to the business operations or properties of Chugach and any
affiliate of Chugach. Upon the expiration or termination of the Employment Term,
upon Chugach's request, Griffith will surrender and deliver to Chugach all
documents and information of every kind relating to or connected with Chugach
and its affiliates. As used herein "confidential information" means all
information, whether written or oral, tangible or intangible, of a private,
secret, proprietary or confidential nature, of or concerning Chugach and its
business and operations, including without limitation, any trade-secrets or
know-how, computer software programs in both source code and object code,
information regarding any product or service, development, technology,
technique, process or methodology, any sales, promotional or marketing plans,
programs, techniques, practices or strategies, any expansion or acquisition
plans, any operational and management guidelines, any cost, pricing or other
financial data or projections, and any other information which is to be treated
as confidential because of any duty of confidentiality owed by Chugach to any
third party or any other information that Chugach shall, in the ordinary course
of its business, possess or use and not release externally without restriction
on use or disclosure. The foregoing confidential information provision shall not
apply to information which: (i) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful
act of Griffith, (ii) is rightfully received from any third party without
restriction and without breach by Griffith of this Employment Agreement; or
(iii) is independently developed by Griffith after the term of his employment
hereunder or is independently developed by a competitor of Chugach at any time.
The provisions of this paragraph 9 shall survive the expiration and/or
termination of this Employment Agreement.

         10. Termination.

                  a. Termination for Cause. Chugach may terminate Griffith's
employment for "cause" immediately upon written notice to Griffith, provided,
however, that Griffith has been given ten (10) days written notice of cause for
termination and has failed to, or is unable to, cure such cause within that
time. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of the cause.
For purposes of this Employment Agreement, "cause" means a business-related
reason that is not arbitrary, capricious or illegal and which is based on facts
(i) supported by substantial evidence and (ii) reasonably believed by the Board
of Directors to be true. Examples of "cause" for termination of employment are
provided in Chugach Operating Policy 013 dated September 19, 2001, and are
incorporated herein by reference to the extent they are consistent with this
Employment Agreement. In the event of the involuntary termination of his
employment for cause, Griffith shall not be entitled to receive any compensation
hereunder other than his Base Salary and employee benefits and leave as accrued
through the effective date of such termination. Griffith's obligations under
Paragraphs 8 and 9 shall continue under the terms and conditions of this
Employment Agreement.

                  b. Termination Other Than for Cause. Chugach shall have the
right to terminate Griffith's employment for any reason, upon thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Griffith, whereupon Griffith's employment pursuant to
this Employment Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of
termination. In the event of the involuntary termination of his employment other
than for cause, Griffith shall be entitled to receive: (i) his Base Salary,
bonus amount, leave and employee benefits as accrued through the effective date
of such termination; (ii) an amount equal to Griffith's Base Salary and benefits
for a period equal to five (5) months following the effective date of
termination; and (iii) a pro-rata portion of the bonus amount for that period.
Griffith will be entitled to receive the aforementioned amounts in this
Paragraph 10(b), if and only if Griffith signs a valid general release of all
claims against Chugach in a form provided by Chugach. All payments shall be made
at normal Chugach payroll periods, less withholdings required by law, unless
otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by Griffith and Chugach. Griffith's
obligations under Paragraph 9 shall continue under the terms and conditions of
this Employment Agreement.

                  c. Voluntary Termination. Griffith may voluntarily terminate
his employment under this Agreement at any time upon thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Chugach's Board of Directors, whereupon Chugach's employment
of Griffith shall terminate at the end of the thirty (30) day notice period. In
the event of Griffith's voluntary termination of employment, he shall not be
entitled to receive any compensation hereunder other than his Annual Salary and
employee benefits as accrued through the effective date of such termination.
Griffith's obligations under Paragraphs 8 and 9 shall continue under the terms
and conditions of this Employment Agreement.

                  d. Death or Disability. Griffith's employment pursuant to this
Agreement shall terminate automatically on the date of Griffith's death or
disability. Upon Griffith's death or disability, no compensation shall be
payable to Griffith under this Agreement except for Griffith's Base Salary,
bonus amount and employee benefits as accrued through the date of his death or
disability, whichever is applicable, including any employee benefits payable in
the event of Griffith's death or disability, whichever is applicable. For
purposes of this Employment Agreement, Griffith shall be deemed to be disabled
(as medically determined by an independent physician), if for a period of at
least three (3) consecutive months he is unable to perform the essential
functions of his position with Chugach, with or without reasonable
accommodation. For purposes of this Agreement, if Griffith's employment
terminates by reason of his disability, his employment termination date shall be
deemed to be the last day of the three (3) month period described in this
paragraph.

                  e. Excess Parachute Payment. In the event that Chugach treats
any portion of Griffith's payments or benefits hereunder as an "excess parachute
payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
("Code") or any comparable provision of state or local tax law, or it is
otherwise asserted (including on an audit of either Chugach or Griffith) that
any portion of such payments or benefits is such an "excess parachute payment,"
Chugach shall prior to the date on which any amount of excise tax (or penalty or
interest) must be paid in respect thereof, promptly make an additional lump sum
payment in cash to Griffith in an amount sufficient, after giving effect to all
federal, state and other taxes and charges (including interest and penalties, if
any) with respect to such payment to make Griffith whole for all taxes
(including withholding and social security taxes) imposed under Section 4999 of
the Code, or any comparable provision of state or local tax law, with respect to
the "excess parachute payment" and all associated interest and penalty amounts.
Griffith shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with Chugach to attempt to
minimize any such tax liability.

                  f. Miscellaneous. In the event of any termination or attempted
termination hereof: (i) if multiple events, occurrences or circumstances are
asserted as bases for such termination or attempted termination, the event,
occurrence or circumstance that is earliest in time, and any termination or
attempted termination found to be proper hereunder based thereon, shall take
precedence over the others; (ii) no termination of this Employment Agreement
shall relieve or release either party from liability hereunder based on any
breach of the terms hereof by such party occurring prior to the Termination
Date; and (iii) the terms of this Employment Agreement relevant to performance
or satisfaction of any obligation hereunder expressly remaining to be performed
or satisfied in whole or in part at the Termination Date shall continue in force
until such full performance or satisfaction has been accomplished and otherwise
neither party hereto shall have any other or further remaining obligations to
other party hereunder.

                  g. No Set-off; No Duty of Mitigation. There shall be no right
of setoff or counterclaim, in respect of any actual or alleged claim, debt or
obligation, against any payments or benefits required to be made or provided to
Griffith hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to subparagraphs
10(a) and 10(b)). In the event of any termination of Griffith's employment under
this paragraph 10, Griffith shall be under no obligation to seek other
employment and shall be entitled to all payments or benefits required to be made
or provided to Griffith hereunder, without any duty of mitigation of damages and
regardless of any other employment obtained by Griffith.

         11. Injunctive Relief. It is agreed that the services of Griffith are
unique and that any breach or threatened breach by Griffith of any provision of
this Employment Agreement cannot be remedied solely by damages. Accordingly, in
the event of a breach by Griffith of his obligations under this Employment
Agreement, Chugach shall be entitled to seek and obtain interim restraints and
permanent injunctive relief, restraining Griffith and any business, firm,
partnership, individual, corporation or entity participating in such breach or
attempted breach. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed as prohibiting
Chugach from pursuing any other remedies available at law or in equity for such
breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages and the
termination of the services of Griffith.

         12. Arbitration. Any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating
to this Employment Agreement or any claimed breach hereof shall be resolved, at
the request of either party, by a private arbitration proceeding. The
arbitration proceeding shall be conducted pursuant to the Alaska Uniform
Arbitration Act, AS 09.43.010 - 09.43.180 (the "Act") and the Model Employment
Arbitration Rules (the "Arbitration Rules") of the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA"), each of which is incorporated herein by this reference to
the extent that the Act and the Arbitration Rules are consistent with this
Employment Agreement. The arbitrator shall be an impartial arbitrator qualified
to serve in accordance with the Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator shall be
selected by mutual agreement of the parties. If the parties are unable to agree
to a mutually acceptable arbitrator within twenty-one (21) days of the request
for arbitration, Chugach shall request that the AAA submit a list of seven (7)
arbitrators. After a coin toss to determine who makes the first strike, the
parties shall strike names from the AAA list alternately until the name of one
arbitrator remains. That arbitrator shall be deemed mutually acceptable to both
parties unless the arbitrator is unavailable, in which case the last arbitrator
whose name was struck shall be deemed acceptable to the parties, and so on. The
arbitration hearing shall be held in Anchorage, Alaska, or in such other place
as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties, at a time and location determined
by the arbitrator. Within thirty (30) days of the close of the arbitration
hearing, the arbitrator shall hand down a written decision and award. The
decision shall explain the basis for the arbitrator's award. The arbitrator
shall have authority to interpret and enforce this Employment Agreement, but
shall not have authority to alter, amend or supercede any provision of this
Employment Agreement. The decision and award shall be final and binding on the
parties, subject only to such appeal rights as are available under the Act.
Either party may seek entry of judgment upon such decision and award in any
court having jurisdiction over the parties. The expenses of the arbitration
proceeding shall be borne by Chugach,. Each party shall pay for and bear the
cost of its own experts, witnesses and legal counsel in such arbitration
proceeding.

         13.      Indemnification.

                  a. Chugach shall indemnify Griffith (as a "protected person")
to the fullest extent permitted by AS 10.25.145 (the terms of which are
incorporated herein by this reference) against all costs, expenses, liabilities
and losses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, penalties
and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred by Griffith in connection
with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative in which Griffith is made, or is threatened to be made, a party to
or a witness in such action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is
or was an officer or agent of Chugach or of any of Chugach's controlled
affiliates or is or was serving as an officer, trustee, agent or fiduciary of
any other entity at the request of Chugach (a "Proceeding").

                  b. Chugach shall advance to Griffith all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding within twenty (20) days
after receipt by Chugach of a written request for such advance, accompanied by
an itemized list of the actual or anticipated costs and expenses and Griffith's
written undertaking to repay to Chugach on demand the amount of such advance if
it shall ultimately be determined that Griffith is not entitled to be
indemnified against such costs and expenses. Griffith shall periodically account
to Chugach for all such costs and expenses incurred by Griffith in connection
with his defense of the proceeding.

                  c. The indemnification provided to Griffith hereunder is in

BOARD POLICY:     107                                      Date:  June 18, 2003

           BOARD OF DIRECTORS - CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER RELATIONSHIP

I.       OBJECTIVE

         To establish the policy governing the basic relationship between the
         Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer, including the
         principles involving the delegation of authority.

II.      CONTENT

         The Board of Directors of the Association recognizes, establishes, and
         maintains the following guidelines in their relationship with the Chief
         Executive Officer:

         A.       It is recognized that good management is the most important
                  factor in the success of the Association. This includes a
                  strong and effective Board, Chief Executive Officer and staff,
                  as well as dedicated and capable employees. In exercising its
                  responsibilities, the Board of Directors reserve their
                  authority to establish policies, approve plans and programs
                  and delegate authority to their Chief Executive Officer,
                  except those that are by law, the Articles of Incorporation
                  and Bylaws, conferred upon or reserved to the members.

         B.       The Board of Directors recognize their responsibility and
                  their need to establish policies, approve plans and programs,
                  appraise results achieved and delegate authority to the Chief
                  Executive Officer to execute and carry out their plans,
                  programs and policies. The Chief Executive Officer shall,
                  among other things, be responsible for the hiring of capable
                  personnel within the limitations of Board policy and budget
                  constraints, determining compensation within the approved wage
                  and salary plan and policy, training, supervising and
                  terminating if necessary.

         C.       All policies of the Board of Directors shall be adopted at
                  regular or special Board meetings acting collectively as a
                  Board. The Chief Executive Officer is delegated the
                  responsibility of carrying out such policies and reporting
                  back to the Board on the results achieved.

         D.       The Board recognizes that should any Director undertake in
                  private conversation with others to make commitments for the
                  Board of Directors, unless directed officially by the Board,
                  that Director becomes involved in a serious breach of policy
                  that might disrupt the entire organization. The Board member
                  shall be subject to reprimand from his or her fellow Board
                  members should he/she attempt to make commitments unofficially
                  for the Board.

<PAGE>

         E.       The Board of Directors shall refrain as individuals from
                  discussing management and personnel problems with personnel of
                  the Association. The Board of Directors, in consultation with
                  the Chief Executive Officer, may confer with key personnel at
                  regular or special meetings of the Board.

         F.       The "flow" of authority for the management of the Association
                  shall be through the Board of Directors to the Chief Executive
                  Officer. The Board of Directors shall require full, complete
                  and timely information from the Chief Executive Officer
                  concerning pertinent matters in connection with the management
                  of the Association as set forth in Board Policies.

         G.       The Board of Directors  recognize  that  efficient  management
                  of the  Association  can exist only through mutual
                  understanding and complete  cooperation  between the Board of
                  Directors and the Chief Executive  Officer.  The Chief
                  Executive  Officer is expected to produce  results  and  give
                  an  account  to  the  Board  of  Directors  for  his or her
                  stewardship.  His or her  performance  cannot  be of the best
                  unless he or she is given latitude  to  exercise  independent
                  judgment  in  executing  policies  of the  Board of Directors.
                  The Board of  Directors  acknowledges  that  obligation  and
                  gives the Chief Executive  Officer  that  latitude  of
                  judgment  and  discretion,  and expects  faithful performance
                  in carrying out all of the policies of the Board of Directors.

         H.       The Board of Directors recognize their responsibility for the
                  employment of a Chief Executive Officer, and further, the
                  additional responsibility for a systematic annual appraisal,
                  no later than April 23 each year, of the Chief Executive
                  Officer's performance in order that growth, development and
                  effective improvements are encouraged.

         I.       The Chief Executive Officer may only be terminated in
                  accordance with the contract between the Chief Executive
                  Officer and the Board.

III.     RESPONSIBILITIES

         A.       The Chairman of the Board shall be responsible for bringing
                  the attention of the Board members to non-adherence to this
                  policy.

         B.       The Board of Directors shall be responsible for seeing that
                  the performance of the Chief Executive Officer is appraised
                  each year by the Operations Committee, which will make a
                  written report to the full Board on or before the second Board
                  meeting in March of each year, but no later than April 23,
                  including a recommendation on a salary adjustment when
                  appropriate. Once reviewed with the Board, a written report
                  should be made to the Chief Executive Officer and discussed
                  with him or her.
