Gentlemen:
This has reference to the Merger Implementing Agreement entered into this date.

The following was agreed to in the application of Article VII.A.3. regarding calculation of TPA's.

1. In the case of any full time Union Officer holding seniority in this hub who may return to active service, the TPA for such employee shall be determined by calculating the average of the TPA's of the two full time employees above and below the said Union Officer on the roster in the same class of service and using that average for purposes of applying protective benefits.
2. The General Chairman will furnish Carrier with a list of the monies paid to part time union officers by their Committee for the performance of union business, and such amounts will be added to TPA earnings for the test period for purposes of applying protective benefits.
3. Employees who held reserve board positions during the test period shall be treated in the same manner described in 1. above.
4. All compensation for services performed during the test period, even though some portion of it may have been directed to a 401-K account on a pre-tax basis or otherwise, shall be included in calculating said TPA.

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

Yours truly,
M. A. Hartman
General Director - Labor Relations
