Brothers and Sisters:
Your negotiating committee met with the Company today
in order to discuss your contract. It was our intention to complete all
of the non-economics by the end of the day. Unfortunantely there were
numerous non-economic issues to be discussed and were not able to
finish. One item that you Negotiating Committee and the Company
discussed at great lengh was the implementation of a lead position in
Plant Protection, discussions to continue.
Your Negotiating Committee has ageed to meet with the
Company again on April 26th and the 27th.
Please be advised it is our intention to conduct the contract
ratification vote on Friday the 29th of April.
As always we will continue to update you with all
pertinent information as soon as possible.

Tony Aragues, Russell Wiggins) met today with the representatives of the
Company (Bob McPherson, Lisa A. Deitz, Karyn Hennigan, Mike Belzil, Ken
Hunter, James Palmer, Mike Curnow) to discuss your contract.
Today's venue centered around non-economic issues

all due diligence.
It is our intent to begin economic discussions as
