Legal Question in Business Law in Czech Republic

When I lived in California, I left my company with a private written contract that I negotiated with them. After going back and forth with the company writing and rewriting the contract until I was satisfied, I asked for one more thing to be added to the contract in writing. I was told by the company that it wasn't necessary to put this last item in the contract because it was automatic. I asked them again to please add it to the written contract and again they told me it wasn't necessary and that what I was asking for was automatic and I was entitled to it. Because of their assurance, I went ahead and signed the contract without this item in the written form. This was in November 1989. I recently (April 2014) found out by accident that the company has changed their rules and I have been denied this item as of March 31, 2014. Do they have to honor a verbal part of the contract?

This question is very general. For answering it properly I would have to see the contract an the wording of the contract. Generally speaking if you have written in the contract that all oral agreements are replaced by the written contract, than you can not refer to oral agreements.
