Pledge 2000

We the undersigned are committed to continuity of business and to resolving Year 2000 problems. We therefore make this public pledge:

Pickersgill-Kaye Limited

P. M. Murphy

Managing Director

4 November 1998

We are actively working to ensure the continuity of our business and it is our intention to minimise the impact of the Year 2000 problem on it, through the Year 2000 and beyond

We are committed to sharing information about resolving the Year 2000 problem and will share details of our Year 2000 project with those who have a genuine interest in the information

Insofar as we are supplying date relevant products or services, we will endeavour to give access to up to date, effective and appropriate Year 2000 compliance information about them. Where practicable we will use all reasonable endeavours to help customers mitigate the impact of the Year 2000 problem in products and services previously supplied

We will keep secure all Year 2000 information shared confidentially with us by others and not use it save as necessary for the proper implementation of our Year 2000 project nor disclose it without proper permission

We will work co-operatively and in good faith with our supply chain partners on Year 2000 issues

We are actively working to solve the Year 2000 problem rather than taking legal action. We will, whenever appropriate and possible, use consensual means for resolving any disputes over Year 2000 problems that may arise
