As you are obviously deciding on all crucial corporate and personal matters at this critical time please, if at all possible,look favorably at my previously sub- mitted formal request to receive the discounted lump sum distribution of my retire- ment funds authorized under the 1994 Deferral Plan.At this most difficult time I greatly appreciate your attention to this request. Respectfully Submitted, Lou Potempa
