This FullCtl Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) shall apply to the FullCtl Service Description between FullCtl (“FullCtl”) and Customer and to any attachments or schedules attached thereto or incorporated by reference therein (the “Service Description”).

Applicability

This SLA is part of the Service Description and this SLA is coterminous with the Service Description (such that termination the Service Description constitutes termination of this SLA). In case of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Service Description and this SLA, the terms and conditions of the Service Description shall prevail. This SLA is applicable to the delivery and operation of the services directly connected to the FullCtl Switching Fabric by FullCtl to the Customer. Subject to FullCtl’s commercially reasonable efforts, this SLA defines the service levels, the quality of the services, the service credits (if applicable) for non-delivery, unavailability or under performance and the processes and procedures to be followed, and provides a mutual understanding of service level expectation. Capitalized terms used in this SLA and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed in the Service Description or the FullCtl Terms of Service.

Limitations

This SLA is only applicable to the Customer connection as long as the Customer is in compliance with all provisions of the Service Description and the FullCtl Terms of Service.
This SLA is only applicable to services that are directly connected to the FullCtl Infrastructure.
Total monthly service credit will not exceed 100% of monthly charges.

Summary of SLA

As described in more detail below, the SLA provides goals in the following five key areas. FullCtl shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet them.
The FullCtl Switching Fabric available to Customer free of Network Outages 100% of the time.
Latency of the FullCtl Switching Fabric of 10 milliseconds or less.
Packet Loss of the FullCtl Switching Fabric of 0.1% or less.
A FullCtl Internet connection will be available to the customer free of Network Outages 100% of the time.
Rapid response time for both provisioning and reported service problems.

FullCtl Switching Fabric Availability

FullCtl’s goal is to make the FullCtl Switching Fabric available to Customers free of Network Outages 100% of the time. Subject to Sections 8, 9 and 10 below, upon Customer’s request, FullCtl will issue a credit to Customer for Network Outages in an amount equal to one day’s worth of the Base Fee paid by Customer, multiplied by each hour of the cumulative duration of such Network Outages during a particular month.

FullCtl Switching Fabric Latency

FullCtl’s goal is to keep Latency on the FullCtl Switching Fabric to 10 milliseconds or less.
Subject to Sections 8, 9 and 10 below, if Latency on the FullCtl Switching Fabric, as applicable, for a calendar month exceeds the time frame set forth above for the applicable portion of the FullCtl Switching Fabric, FullCtl will issue a credit to Customer equal to one day’s worth of the Base Fee paid by Customer for such month.
The terms of this FullCtl Switching Fabric SLA related to Latency will take effect the first full calendar month after Customer’s first use of the FullCtl Switching Fabric. Customer agrees to pay all fees as set forth in the Service Description.

FullCtl Switching Fabric Packet Loss

FullCtl’s goal is to keep Packet Loss on the FullCtl Switching Fabric to 0.1% or less.
Subject to Sections 8, 9 and 10 below, if Packet Loss on the FullCtl Switching Fabric exceeds 0.1% during a calendar month, FullCtl will issue a credit to Customer equal to one day’s worth of the Base Fee paid by Customer for such month.
The terms of this FullCtl Switching Fabric SLA relating to Packet Loss will take effect the first full calendar month after Customer’s first use of the FullCtl Switching Fabric.

Response Time

Upon official notification, FullCtl is committed to use commercially reasonable efforts not to exceed one (1) business day repair time for service problems. If FullCtl is unable to correct the outage after one (1) business day, Customer will be eligible for a credit as set forth in this Section 7.
After execution of the Service Description, if the initial provisioning takes more than five (5) business days, the Customer will be eligible for a credit equal to one day’s worth of the Base Fee paid by Customer for such month.
Any requested configuration changes (excluding major changes or any changes that require any amendment to the Service Description) will be completed within one (1) business day after being submitted to the FullCtl portal, if that time is exceeded, the Customer will be eligible for a credit equal to one day’s worth of the Base Fee paid by Customer for such month.

Measurement

FullCtl will periodically (on average every 1 minute) measure the FullCtl Switching Fabric at selected POPs using software and hardware components capable of measuring traffic and responses at such POPs. Customer acknowledges that not every POP may be covered by such measurements, that such measurements may not measure the exact path traversed by Customer’s packets, and that such measurements constitute measurements across the FullCtl Switching Fabric but no other networks to which Customer may connect. FullCtl reserves the right to periodically change the measurement points and methodologies it uses without notice to Customer.
FullCtl will use third party services to monitor Internet connectivity (on average every 1 minute) from external sources.

Exceptions

Customer shall not receive any credits under this SLA in connection with any failure or deficiency of the FullCtl Switching Fabric or datacenter caused by or associated with: Any circumstances beyond FullCtl’s reasonable control, in including, without limitation, as set forth in Section 11, any failure of third party software or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of the FullCtl SLA; failure of access circuits to the FullCtl Switching Fabric (unless such failure is caused solely by FullCtl); Scheduled Maintenance and emergency maintenance and upgrades; DNS issues outside the direct control of FullCtl; false SLA breaches reported as a result of outages or errors of any FullCtl measurement system; or Customer’s acts or omissions (or act or omissions of others engaged or authorized by Customer), including without limitation, any negligence, willful misconduct, or use of the FullCtl Switching Fabric or Services in breach of this SLA, the FullCtl Term of Service or the Service Description.

Credit Card Request and Payment Procedures

Credit will be granted upon Customer request only. Credit requests must be provided to FullCtl in writing. Verbal requests will not be honored. Each request in connection with a Network Outage must be received by FullCtl within seven days of the Network Outage and must be confirmed by FullCtl’s measurements of the FullCtl Switching Fabric. FullCtl must receive each request in connection with Latency or Packet Loss or Response Time in a calendar month within seven days after the end of such month.
Each valid credit, as determined by FullCtl, will be applied to Customer’s invoice within two billing cycles after FullCtl’s receipt of Customer’s request. Credits are exclusive of any applicable taxes charged to Customer or collected by FullCtl.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THE AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE TOTAL AMOUNT CREDITED TO A CUSTOMER IN CONNECTION WITH NETWORK OUTAGE, LATENCY, PACKET LOSS AND/OR RESPONSE TIME IN ANY ONE CALENDAR MONTH WILL NOT EXCEED THE BASE FEE PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR SUCH MONTH. ANY CREDITS GRANTED ARE CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO NETWORK OUTAGE, LATENCY, PACKET LOSS, RESPONSE TIME AND/OR ANY OTHER BREACH OR VIOLATION OF THIS SLA. FullCtl shall have no liability whatsoever to Customer or any third party for any failure to meet the service levels set forth in this SLA unless this SLA expressly provides that Customer shall be entitled to receive a credit as a result of such failure, and then only to the extent of such credit. Without limiting the foregoing, the failure of FullCtl to meet any service levels contained herein shall not be grounds for the cancellation or termination of the Service Description for cause.

Force Majeure

If either party is prevented, hindered, or delayed in the performance or observance of any of its obligations hereunder (excluding payment obligations) by reason of any circumstance beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God, war, strikes, revolutions, acts or omissions of third parties hired by Customer or FullCtl, lack or failure of transportation facilities, laws or governmental regulations, failure of delivery or failure of third party performance, that party will be excused from any further performance or observance of the obligation(s) so affected for as long as such circumstances prevail and that party continues to use all commercially reasonable efforts to recommence performance whenever and to whatever extent possible without delay.

Updates to this SLA

FullCtl reserves the right, at its discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of this SLA at any time upon written notice to Customer or by posting the revised SLA to the FullCtl website with an email notice to Customer. If Customer does not agree with any such changes, upon receipt of notice from FullCtl, Customer’s sole remedy is to exercise its termination rights pursuant to the first sentence of Section 5.2 of the FullCtl Term of Services. Any proposed amendment or change to this SLA made by Customer must be agreed to by Customer and FullCtl in writing.

These Terms of Service (the “Agreement” or “TOS”) apply to the Services FullCtl (“Vendor”) agrees to provide. The Agreement governs the rights and responsibilities between Vendor and the entity purchasing or using the Services (“Customer,” “You,” or “Your”). You agree to be bound by this Agreement regardless of the manner in which You have contracted with Vendor (whether electronically, in hard copy, or otherwise), and the parties agree that Your continued use of the Services, and Vendor’s continued provision of the Services, represent continued agreement to be bound by the Agreement. The “Effective Date” will be the date on which Vendor initially provisions Services to You or, if You are a continuing customer of Vendor, the date on which this Agreement is posted to Vendor’s website. This Agreement includes Vendor’s AUP, Privacy Policy, Service Descriptions, and any other documents that are incorporated into, attached to or specifically reference this TOS. Vendor reserves the right to update the TOS from time to time, and any updates shall take effect as of the date on which notice of such updates is emailed to customer.

Vendor reserves the right to terminate this TOS immediately, and to suspend or cancel the Services in the event of: (i) a violation of any of Vendor’s policies, including those incorporated by reference; and/or (ii) any failure to pay Fees when due. This right of termination is without prejudice to any other rights Vendor may have. You are not entitled to any type of notice or protest should Vendor exercise these rights.
A party may also terminate this TOS in the event of a material breach by the other party (the “Breaching Party”) that has not been cured by the Breaching Party within ten days of its receipt of written notice of the breach; provided that a material breach of Vendor’s obligations under this TOS is defined within Vendor’s Service Level Agreement.

Vendor’s obligation to provide the Services is contingent on your payment of the Fees by the Due Date. You must pay the Fees without set off or deduction. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure that Vendor receives payment of the Fees. Fees will be considered paid on the date Customer’s financial institution makes funds available to us. Should your account be suspended for any reason other than Vendor’s breach of this Agreement, Fees will continue to accrue.
If we suspend or terminate your use of the Services because you have violated this TOS, or any of the agreements, policies or regulations incorporated into it, we will not provide you with a credit. Our Service Level Agreement does not apply to disruptions to your use of the Services because of such a violation. You agree to hold Vendor harmless from any claims that such a disruption has caused damage to you or a third party, regardless of whether you informed Vendor of the possibility of such damage.
If the Fees are not paid by your financial institution, your account will be considered delinquent. To reinstate your account if Services are suspended or canceled, you will be required to pay, depending on the reason for the delinquency: (i) a returned check fee in the amount of $50; (ii) interest in the amount of 1.5% per month, or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less; (iii) collection charges, including attorney’s fees; and/or (iv) any fees levied on us by our financial institution.
You may choose to purchase certain Third-Party Services through us. Fees for the Third-Party Services may not appear on our invoices on the month on which they are delivered. You agree to pay for these Third-Party Services regardless of the length of time elapsed between their delivery date and the date on which you are charged.
If you believe there is an error in invoice particular Fee, you must contact us in writing. Our obligation to consider your claim is contingent on your providing us with written notice of this dispute and including sufficient facts for us to investigate your claims. We must receive this notice at least five days prior to the Due Date (Dispute Deadline). You waive your right to dispute any charges or Fees if you fail to meet the Dispute Deadline. If we find that your claim is valid, we agree to credit your account on your next invoice.

IN NO EVENT WILL VENDOR’S LIABILITY HEREUNDER EXCEED THE AGGREGATE FEES ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY VENDOR FROM YOU FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS PARAGRAPH ONLY, “VENDOR” SHALL BE INTERPRETED TO INCLUDE VENDOR’S EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OWNERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AFFILIATES, AND THIRD PARTIES PROVIDING SERVICES TO CUSTOMER THROUGH VENDOR.
YOU AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE, HOLD VENDOR OR ITS LICENSORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS AND/OR THIRD-PARTY VENDORS LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHATSOEVER INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, COST SAVINGS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, DATA OR USE, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS BY YOU, ANY OF YOUR END USERS OR ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS APPLY WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY AND APPLY EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; YOU AGREE THAT IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to keep back-up copies of your data. We are not responsible for any loss of data, for any reason. We are not liable for unauthorized access to, or any corruption, erasure, theft, destruction, alteration or inadvertent disclosure of, data, information or content, transmitted, received, or stored on our network.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless us and our parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, third-party service providers and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents (each an "indemnified party" and, collectively, "indemnified parties") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, suits, actions, demands, proceedings (whether legal or administrative), and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) threatened, asserted, or filed by a third party against any of the indemnified parties arising out of or relating to (i) your use of the Services (ii) any violation by you of any of our policies; (iii) any breach of any of your representations, warranties or covenants contained in this TOS; and/or (iv) any acts or omissions by you. The terms of this section shall survive any termination of this TOS. For the purpose of this paragraph only, the terms used to designate you include you, your customers, visitors to your website, and users of your products or services, the use of which is facilitated by us.

Feedback

Any suggestion or idea for modifying any of Vendor’s products or services, including without limitation all intellectual property rights in any such suggestion or idea, shall be referred to in this Agreement as “Feedback.”
Customer hereby grants Vendor a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to use any Feedback Customer communicates to Vendor during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, without compensation, without any obligation to report on such use, and without any other restriction. Vendor’s rights granted in the previous sentence include, without limitation, the right to exploit Feedback in any and every way, as well as the right to grant sublicenses.
Vendor has not agreed to and does not agree to treat as confidential any Feedback (as defined below) Customer provides to Vendor, and nothing in this Agreement or in the parties’ dealings arising out of or related to this Agreement will restrict Vendor’s right to use, profit from, disclose, publish, keep secret, or otherwise exploit Feedback, without compensating or crediting Customer.

Notices

Notices will be sent to you at the address you provide to us. It is your obligation to ensure that we have You most current address.
Please refer to Vendor’s website for contact information for most issues, including technical support and billing. Notices regarding this TOS and other policies should be directed to Vendor at the address set out on the website.

Force Majeure

Except for the obligation to pay monies due and owing, neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure in performance due to events outside the defaulting party’s reasonable control, including without limitation acts of God, earthquake, labor disputes, shortages of supplies, riots, war, fire, epidemics, failure of telecommunication carriers, or delays of common carriers or other circumstances beyond its reasonable control. The obligations and rights of the excused party shall be extended on a day-to-day basis for the time period equal to the period of the excusable delay. The party affected by such an occurrence shall notify the other party as soon as possible, but in no event less than ten days from the beginning of the event.

Choice of Law; Jurisdiction; Venue

The validity, interpretation, and performance of this TOS, and of the agreements and policies that apply to the Services, shall be controlled by and construed under the laws of the State of Illinois, United States of America, as if performed wholly within the state and without giving effect to the principles of conflict of law. You agree that jurisdiction and venue are proper in the state courts located in Chicago, Illinois, or the U.S. District Court for the District of Illinois located in Chicago. If neither of these courts has venue and/or jurisdiction, any dispute shall be brought before the state courts of Illinois. The parties specifically disclaim the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

Waiver

No waiver of rights under this TOS, or any policy of ours, and no agreement between us and you shall constitute a subsequent waiver of this or any other right under this TOS.

Assignment

This TOS may be assigned by us. It may not be assigned by Customer. This TOS shall bind and inure to the benefit of the corporate successors and permitted assigns of the parties.

Severability

In the event that any of the terms of this TOS become or are declared to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such term(s) shall be null and void and shall be deemed deleted from this TOS. All remaining terms of this TOS shall remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this paragraph becomes applicable and, as a result, the value of this TOS is materially impaired for either party, as determined by such party in its sole discretion, then the affected party may terminate this TOS by written notice to the other.

No Agency

This TOS does not create any agency, partnership, joint venture, or franchise relationship. Neither party has the right or authority to, and neither party shall, assume or create any obligation of any nature whatsoever on behalf of the other party or bind the other party in any respect whatsoever.
