Large numbers of them will be retiring soon and this is happening when the mainframe is making a big comeback as a key component in the new enterprise architectures – Business Integration, Service Orientated Architecture, Virtualization etc. Clearly new IT entrants want to be in the world of Web, Java, Linux and the like.

Clearly you will need a plan as you will not be able to rely on the availability of expensive contractors as time moves forward.
