The gradient estimate for solutions U: of (1.3) in [5] is obtained by using Bernstein’s method, and assumption (1.2) is solely employed to make it possible. In addition, it should be remarked that standard variants of the Bernstein trick like in [2] and [4] which are useful to obtain the IV**” estimate for solutions of the system of variational inequalities with unilateral constraints without (1.2) do not work in our case.
