The sick days that the Employee has accumulated prior to July 1, 1988 shall be hereinafter referred to as "bank sick days".

Employees shall be allowed to transfer ten (10) of their "bank sick days" to their "current sick days" as of July 1, 1988. The Employee shall have the option to retain his/her bank sick days to be used as later described.
