Gentlemen:

This refers to the Merger Implementing Agreement entered into this date between the Union Pacific Railroad Company, Southern Pacific Lines and the United Transportation Union.

UTU - S: Articles 2 and 8 of the Agreement dated May 21, 1996

It was your position that coverages provided by the former agreement should be preserved for the former SSW employees covered by this implementing Agreement. This will confirm that Carrier agreed that these insurance premiums would be maintained at current levels and would be grand fathered to those former SSW employees who are covered by this Implementing Agreement and who are presently covered under those plans. These insurance premiums will be maintained at current levels for such employees for a six (6) year period commencing January 1, 199B, unless extended or modified pursuant to the Railway Labor Act.

It is understood this Agreement is made without prejudice to the positions of either party regarding whether or not such benefits are subject to preservation under New York Dock and it will. not be cited by any party in any other negotiations or proceedings.

If the 'foregoing adequately and accurately sets forth our agreement in this matter please so indicate by signing in the space provided for that purpose below.


Yours truly.
