The COMPANY shall complete any buy out made under this Section 8 as soon as administratively possible after the date of the BUY OUT NOTICE. At the COMMITTEE's option, payment of the buy out amount may be made in cash, in whole COMMON SHARES or partly in cash and partly in whole COMMON SHARES. The number of whole COMMON SHARES, if any, included in the buy out amount shall be determined by dividing the amount of the payment to be made in COMMON SHARES by the fair market value of the COMMON SHARES on the date of the BUY OUT NOTICE.
