or privilege herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment for the future of such covenant or option, but the same shall
remain and continue in full force and effect. The making of payments by COMPANY
to SUPPLIER with knowledge of the breach of any terms, conditions or covenants
of this AGREEMENT shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by

equal to the delay, provided that SUPPLIER notified COMPANY'S Representative in
writing of such delay and basis therefore within forty-eight (48) hours after
the cause therefore becomes apparent. Such opportunity by SUPPLIER to secure an
extension of time to complete the work delayed due to circumstances referenced

             ----------------------------

31.1 Representations and Warranties. Unless otherwise stated in a Work Order,
SUPPLIER represents and warrants that the Deliverables shall be "Date Compliant"
(as defined below). For purposes of this AGREEMENT "Date Compliant" means:

(i) the functions, calculations and other computing processes of the deliverable
(collectively, "Processes") perform in a consistent manner regardless of the
date in time on which the Processes are actually performed and regardless of the
date input to the deliverable and whether or not the dates are affected by leap
years;

(ii) the deliverable accepts, calculates, compares, sorts, extracts, stores,
sequences and otherwise processes date inputs and date values, and returns and
displays date values in a consistent manner regardless of the dates used;

(iii) the deliverable will function without interruptions caused by the date and
time on which the Processes are actually performed or by the date input to the
deliverable;

To the extent that COMPANY determines in its reasonable discretion that the
deliverable is not Date Compliant, SUPPLIER agrees, at its sole cost and
expense, to correct the noncompliance within five (5) business days. SUPPLIER
agrees to indemnify COMPANY from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
damages (including, but not limited to, consequential, incidental and indirect
damages) and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) sustained or
incurred by COMPANY as a result of the deliverable not being Date Compliant.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this AGREEMENT, any statement in
this agreement that serves or intends to limit SUPPLIER'S liability, shall not
apply to this section.

31.2 Survival. The warranties and obligations set forth in this Section shall
survive the expiration of any other warranty period or the expiration or
termination of this AGREEMENT.
