          David N. Keys also participated in the SERP and the Company made a lump sum payment to Mr. Keys in extinguishment of his interest therein in connection with the termination of his employment with the Company.

          The SERP benefits referred to above are in addition to the annual benefits currently accrued under the Pension Plan and do not anticipate future changes in salary levels or inflation.
