computer systems, if any, of its subsidiaries, including EQ Financial (the
"Equitable Computer Systems"), that the Plan provides for the identification,
testing and, where appropriate, upgrading of the Equitable Computer Systems in
accordance with reasonable industry standards, so that both the Equitable
Computer Systems and their interfaces with third party computer systems will
function accurately and without interruption before, during and after December
31, 1999, that Equitable is actively in the process of implementing the Plan and
that EQ Financial presently has no reason to believe that the Equitable Computer
Systems and their interfaces with third party computer systems will not be able
to function accurately and without interruption before, during and after such
date. EQ Financial covenants that Equitable will continue to implement the Plan
and take such other steps as may be necessary and appropriate to be Year 2000
compliant in a timely and efficient manner and will promptly notify the Board of
Trustees of the Trust of any Year 2000 compliance problems and the nature
thereof on or before September 1, 1999 if EQ Financial determines that the
Equitable Computer Systems are not or is not likely to be Year 2000 compliant in
a timely and efficient manner. EQ Financial further represents and warrants that
it will provide the Board of Trustees at each Board meeting held during calendar
year 1999 and as appropriate in calendar year 2000 with detailed reports as to
the Year 2000 preparedness of the Equitable Computer Systems. The failure of the
Equitable Computer Systems to be Year 2000 compliant shall not be deemed to be a
force majeure event or provide a defense to performance hereunder.
Except as modified and amended hereby, the Agreement is hereby ratified
and confirmed in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
