PRICES AND PAYMENT TERMS AND PRICE REVIEW. |
A. PIE shall commence the monthly recurring billing on the Customer Environment as set forth on Exhibit A when PIE delivers the Customer Environment for Customer’s use as specified in the SOW, provided that if Customer starts using the Customer Environment prior to completion of the work in the SOW, Customer will begin paying (i) a pro-rata portion of the applicable space charge based on the percentage planned racks as specified in the SOW actually utilized and (ii) a fee for power actually utilized by Customer in the Premises. PIE shall commence monthly recurring billing on the Buildout as set forth in Exhibit A upon mutual agreement of a SOW. Billing for the Connection (recurring and nonrecurring) shall commence when PIE completes the work in the SOW, provided that if Customer starts using the Connection prior to completion of the work in the SOW, Customer will begin paying the applicable Connection charge for the Connection actually utilized. Customer will be invoiced monthly for all amounts due and owing to PIE. All payments are due within twelve (12) days after the date of such invoice. All payments required by this Agreement are exclusive of any national, state, municipal or other governmental excise, sales, value-added and occupational taxes and other levies, all of which Customer shall be responsible for, and will pay in full, other than taxes based on PIE’ net income. Customer will be deemed to be in default hereunder if payment is not received within eighteen (18) days after the date of such invoice and in addition to its other remedies, PIE may charge Customer an interest rate equal to the lesser of 1-1/2% per month or the maximum amount permitted by the law of Customer’s state. In the event Customer moves the location of its Connection, PIE reserves the right to charge Customer an additional fee to be communicated to Customer in advance. In the event PIE is unable to activate the Connection or Service due to any reason, issue or delay caused either directly or indirectly by the Customer or its agents, such Connection or Service will be deemed activated and PIE shall commence billing for Connection or Services rendered when PIE is ready to activate such Connection or Service.
B. Customer agrees to reimburse PIE for all reasonable repair or restoration costs associated with damage or destruction caused by Customer, its personnel, its agents or its suppliers/contractors or Customer’s visitors during the Term or any renewal or as a consequence of its removal of the Equipment or property installed in the Customer Environment.
C. Upon the request of Customer, the parties shall review the pricing on bandwidth nine (9) months after the Effective Date and each nine (9) months thereafter. In the event that the rate for bandwidth charged by PIE is more than twenty percent (20%) higher than that being paid by Customer for premium bandwidth used by Customer at the Customer Environment from other top tier telecommunications providers (as ranked by a independent third party ranking agency accepted by the industry) for materially comparable services with like terms and conditions, Customer will have the option at its sole discretion to terminate all existing Connections (at no penalty to Customer) and to not purchase any further bandwidth services from PIE. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, PIE shall have the option at its sole discretion to adjust its then-current pricing before any such election to terminate takes place, provided such adjustment is communicated no later than five (5) business days after Customer’s request.
D. For Premium Bandwidth, Customer shall be responsible for all usage above the Committed Megabits per Second (Mbps) ordered. Billing for all subsequent additional usage will be charged at the per Mbps rate or fraction thereof. Calculation of such usage shall be determined by monitoring the Customer’s traffic levels for both transmit and receive every two minutes, averaging the total usage across each calendar month and then removing the top 5% of usage (95th percentile method). The average usage of the higher value, either transmit or receive, will be compared each month with the Committed Mbps paid and any usage above the Committed amount shall be applied to the following month’s bill. No discounts shall be provided for average usage that falls below the paid Committed amount.
| IV. |
ADDITIONAL TERMS GOVERNING THE CONNECTION; INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT. |
A. PIE shall allocate Customer IP addresses in accordance with RFC 2050.
B. PIE offers Customer access to the Internet. Customer hereby acknowledges that the Internet is not owned, operated, managed by or in any way affiliated with PIE or any of its affiliates, and that it is a separate network of computers independent of PIE. Customer’s use of the Internet is solely at Customer’s own risk and is subject to all applicable local, state, national and international laws and regulations. Access to the Internet is dependent on numerous factors, technologies and systems, many of which are beyond PIE’ authority and control.
C. PIE’ network may only be used for lawful purposes. PIE reserves the right to monitor Customer’s activity for internal network utilization and reliability purposes only. PIE’ utilization and reliability monitoring does not include examination of Customer payload data, unless (i) such examination is deemed necessary to troubleshoot a Customer issue, and the Customer consents to such examination; or (ii) such examination is pursuant to any judicial order, search warrant, or statutory requirement, in which event PIE shall provide notice thereof to Customer, to the extent that the judicial order, search warrant, or statutory requirement permits said notice. Any monitoring by PIE is subject to the confidentiality provision set forth in this Agreement. The transmission of any material in violation of any federal, state, or other applicable law or regulation is prohibited. Such laws include laws governing copyright, trade secret, and obscenity. PIE has zero tolerance for unsolicited bulk commercial e-mail messages and reserves the right to suspend the Connection(s) in the event that PIE becomes aware that Customer, or persons making use of Customer’s services is using the PIE network for the distribution of unsolicited bulk commercial e-mail messages in order to investigate the situation. In the event that PIE’ investigation reasonably shows that Customer knowingly distributed unsolicited bulk commercial e-mails, PIE may terminate the Connection(s); and such termination of the Connection(s) shall not be subject to the cure period specified in Section VI.A. PIE-provided facilities, DNS, Connections or services may not be used to send unsolicited bulk commercial e-mails, nor may PIE facilities, DNS, Connections or services be used to host any web site or other network resource which is advertised directly or indirectly through unsolicited bulk commercial e-mail. In the absence of verifiable evidence to the contrary, PIE considers complaints by recipients of e-mails to be de-facto proof that the recipient did not “opt-in” or otherwise ask to receive the e-mail(s) about which a complaint was generated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless prevented by a lawful order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, statute, immediate termination notice received from PIE’ upstream provider, or PIE’ sole but reasonable determination that its network or customers are in immediate jeopardy, PIE will notify customer prior to taking any action that would result in a service interruption.
In the event that PIE receives any disconnection or depeering warning or notice related to Customer’s use of the Connection (hereafter “Notice”) which PIE may receive from various Internet peers and transit providers, PIE may terminate the applicable Connection. In the event that PIE receives any such Notice, PIE reserves the right to take immediate action as necessary to remedy such Notice, including the right to immediately terminate the applicable Connection. The terms “peer” and “transit provider” are used in the Internet industry standard manner, and refer to carriers with whom PIE exchanges IP traffic, whether for compensation (“transit provider”) or not (“peer”).
In the event PIE terminates a Connection pursuant to this Section IV.C., Customer will pay PIE a fee equal to the minimum charge for that Connection for the lesser of (i) for two months or (ii) the remainder of the nine (9) month review term, whichever is less. Customer will have no further liability to PIE related to the terminated Connection.

Notice of monetary default may be sent in any written form allowed pursuant to Section XII. Collection of the amounts specified in this section shall constitute PIE’ sole and exclusive remedy for Customer’s uncured breach of this Agreement, and PIE agrees that it will not seek any additional damages arising from Customer’s uncured breach of this Agreement.

Service Level Agreement for facility uptime |
| |
A. |
PIE guarantees an overall availability of 100% for the Facility. |
| |
B. |
If Customer requests a credit for Facility Downtime, and such request is validated by PIE, PIE shall credit the Customer in accordance with the provisions hereunder: |
If in one calendar month the Facility Downtime exceeds 3 minutes, the Customer will be entitled to a credit towards the invoice which Customer receives two months following the month in which the Facility Downtime was reported. For the purpose of determining the amount of any credit, Facility Downtime will be deemed to commence when PIE opens a “trouble ticket” to track such Facility Downtime and will be deemed to end when PIE has restored availability and closed the applicable “trouble ticket” unless Customer provides technical documentation to establish the exact time(s) of the beginning and/or end of the downtime. A trouble ticket will be opened within 5 minutes of PIE discovering the Outage or within 5 minutes of Customer notifying by telephone to the PIE Operations Center of the Outage. The Customer will not be entitled to receive a credit if (i) Customer has violated the PIE Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), or (ii) Customer is greater than 45 days late in its invoice payment.

If there is Facility Downtime for more than 5 hours, but less than 7 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 75% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Facility Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(7) |
If there is Facility Downtime for more than 7 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 100% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Facility Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |

Service Level Agreement for network uptime |
| |
A. |
PIE guarantees an overall availability of 100% for the network. |
| |
B. |
If in one calendar month the Network Downtime exceeds 3 minutes, the Customer will be entitled to a credit towards the invoice that Customer receives two months following the month in which the Network Downtime was reported. For the purpose of determining the amount of any credit, a Network Downtime will be deemed to commence when PIE opens a “trouble ticket” to track such Network Downtime, and will be deemed to end when PIE has restored availability of the System and closed the applicable “trouble ticket” unless Customer provides technical documentation to establish the exact time(s) of the beginning and/or end of the downtime. A trouble ticket will be opened within 5 minutes of PIE discovering the Outage or within 5 minutes of Customer notifying by telephone the PIE Operations Center of the Outage. The Customer will not be entitled to receive a credit if (i) Customer has violated the PIE Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) or (ii) Customer is greater than 45 days late in paying its invoice. |
| |
C. |
The amount of the credit will be determined as follows: |
| |
(1) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 3 minutes but less than 1 hour in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 10% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(2) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 1 hour but less than 2 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 15% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(3) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 2 hours, but less than 4 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 25% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(4) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 4 hour but less than 6 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 50% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(5) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 6 hour but less than 9 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 75% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
(6) |
If there is Network Downtime for more than 9 hours in any calendar month, Customer shall be entitled to a credit of 100% of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Facility in which the Network Downtime occurred, excluding the power cost which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation. |
| |
A. |
The temperature in the Data Center (defined as the raised floor space area) will be 71 degrees Fahrenheit +/- 2 degrees at all times. Temperature may be measured at any points in the Premises of PIE’ choosing provided that those points are within 2 feet of Customer’s equipment in the Customer Environment. |
| |
B |
Environmental Outage: If an excess temperature condition persists for 60 consecutive days, Customer may give written notice of intent to terminate the Agreement and any Connections or other services coterminous with it, which termination will take effect after 30 days if in that time the excess temperature condition has not been corrected. |
In order to receive any credit, Customer must notify PIE, in writing, within thirty (30) days from the time Customer becomes eligible to receive such credit (i.e. the Trouble Ticket is closed). Customer’s failure to notify PIE within that period shall result in the waiver of Customer’s right to receive any such credit. Credits under the SLA will be paid to Customer in accordance with the SLA only if Customer is not in default of the Agreement or was not in default of the Agreement during the period in which the deficiency occurred.
An Outage shall not be deemed to occur upon the occurrence of routine maintenance or upon the occurrence of an act outside of the control of PIE, such as loss of power at the Customer premises or an act of nature. Notice for routine maintenance shall be provided via the PIE website and provided in writing to the technical contacts provided by Customer.

PIE also guarantees 15 minute Pro-active Notification on all circuit Outages for all Connections.
Unavailability (Outage) is defined as any network event resulting in downtime during which a Customer cannot pass traffic for a period in excess of ten (10) minutes, provided that such Outage is on the PIE network and not caused directly or indirectly by Customer.
An Outage shall be deemed to commence upon the opening of a trouble ticket (“Ticket Open”) with PIE in NocWiz and shall be deemed to terminate upon the restoration of service. An Outage shall not be deemed to occur upon the occurrence of routine maintenance (communicated in writing in advance to the technical contacts provided by Customer) or upon the occurrence of an act outside of the control of PIE such as loss of power at the customer premises or an act of nature.
Core network: Core network is defined as the PIE network between PIE Points of Presence (POPs), meaning all network elements from the ingress customer network port on the network node to the egress customer network port on the network node. Local access and customer premise equipment are specifically excluded.
Edge: Edge is defined as inclusive of customer network port, local access, and customer premise equipment, measured end to end.
Latency1:
Average Latency
within each Region |
|
= Sum of day’s Latency readings within Region in milliseconds |
| |
|
Total readings counted in a day within Region |
|
|
Average Latency
between Regions |
|
= Sum of day’s Latency measurements between relevant Regions in milliseconds |
| |
|
Total readings counted in a day between relevant Regions |
Latency is defined as the time required for a packet to travel round trip, either within or between Regions.
End to end Latency guarantee can be calculated by adding the corresponding access serialization and CPE delay to the Latency matrix above.

1 See Measurement
Measurement: PIE captures service level metrics using active monitoring systems, which gather statistics on a regular basis using Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)-based round trip data between specified service level measurement points. The data generated within each region is then averaged to produce an average service level measurement. Among the average figures calculated are regional Packet Loss and Latency.
Service Level Measurement Points:
| North America: |
|
New York, Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco |
| Asia/Pac Rim: |
|
Tokyo, Hong Kong, Manila |
On-Net: On-Net is defined as any services which are exclusively delivered across the PIE Core Network and are fully managed and supported by PIE.
Off-Net: Off-Net is defined as any service that is not exclusively delivered across the PIE Core Network nor fully managed and supported by PIE.
Packet Loss1:
Average Packet Loss
within each Region (%) |
|
= Sum of packets lost within the Region per day *100 |
| |
|
Total packets sent within the Region per day |
|
|
Average Packet Loss
between Regions (%) |
|
= Sum of packets lost between relevant Regions per day * 100 |
| |
|
Total packets sent within relevant Regions per day |
Average Packet Loss (%) for each Region is defined as the average percentage of packets not delivered when sent either within or between Regions.
The Packet Loss guarantee between Regions is the lesser of the regional guarantees in Section 1.
Pro-Active Notification:
PIE will contact all Customers within fifteen (15) minutes of any circuit Outage. Notification will be via e-mail and phone and will be provided to the Primary Technical Contacts as provided to PIE by the Customer in the PIE Order Form or as provided in writing by Customer to PIE.
Redundant Edge: Redundant Edge is defined as a customer implementation where more than one local access, PIE-managed customer premise equipment, and customer network port has been put in place with diverse routing for resiliency purposes, measured end to end.

Latency:
For each day during which Latency exceeds targets listed in Section 1, PIE will credit 1/30th of that month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Connection in which Downtime occurred excluding the power fees and Co-location fees which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation.
Packet Loss:
For each day during which Packet Loss exceeds targets listed in Section 1, PIE will credit 1/30th of at month’s invoice for the portion of the invoice that corresponds to the Connection in which Downtime occurred excluding the power fees and Co-location fees which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation.
Pro-Active Notification:
If PIE fails to provide Pro-Active Notification to the Customer within 15 minutes of an Outage, PIE will credit 5% of monthly billed, site revenue per affected site not receiving Pro-Active Notification.
Credits:
PIE will credit a Customer’s invoice for PIE’ failure to meet the Service Level Targets as stated in Section 1 and defined in Section 2. If the Customer is credited for the failure to meet a Network Downtime target in the On-Net Co-location Services SLA, the Customer will not be eligible to receive additional credits for Packet Loss or Latency. The Customer will be eligible for credit for failure by PIE to provide Pro-Active Notification to Customer within 15 minutes of an Outage.
The sum of all credits paid to the Customer per month under this SLA shall not exceed 50% of total monthly invoice for Premium Bandwidth and excluding the power fees and Co-location fees which shall be billed at its full rate and not included in the credit calculation.
The Customer will be responsible for notifying PIE of any breach(es) of the Service Levels Targets within 30 days of the occurrence of the breach. Such notification shall include any reasonable proof of such breach in order to receive credit. Credits will be applied to the following month’s bill.
The Customer will also be responsible for assisting PIE in the restoration of service, including but not limited to, allowing access to customer cages and/or racks, engaging in network diagnostics, and providing LAN support personnel. Failure to do so may void the credits on the affected breach.
Customer shall have the option to terminate any Connection with respect to which:
(a) in any three (3) consecutive months, PIE (i) fails to achieve the stated service levels with respect to Latency or Packet Loss or (ii) has cumulative Outages (including Network Downtimes) that equal or exceed five(5) hours per month per Connection; or
(b) at any given time, PIE has Outages (including Network Downtimes) that equal or exceed ten (10) consecutive hours per Connection (each a “Termination Event”).
(each a “Termination Event”).
Customer shall have the option to terminate the Agreement when
| |
(a) |
in any three (3) consecutive months, PIE has cumulative Facility Downtimes that equal or exceed six (6) hours per month; or |
| |
(b) |
at any given time, PIE has Facility Downtimes that equal or exceed ten (10) consecutive hours; |
(each a “Termination Event”).
In the event a Termination Event occurs and Customer desires to terminate the Connection with respect to which such Termination Event occurred, all Connections, or the Agreement as a whole, Customer shall provide PIE with written notification detailing the performance deficiency(ies) giving rise to the Termination Event, which notice must be sent within thirty (30) days following the end of the third deficient calendar month for clause (a) above or deficient calendar month for clause (b) above, as the case may be. PIE will then have thirty (30) days from the receipt of Customer’s notification to remedy the deficiency(ies) by (i) meeting the service levels with respect to Latency and Packet Loss, and (ii) not having an Outage that equals or exceeds ten consecutive hours per site during such 30-day cure period. If PIE fails to meet the service levels with respect to Latency and Packet Loss or has an Outage that equals or exceeds ten (10) consecutive hours per site or has cumulative outages that equal or exceed 6 hours per month within such 30-day cure period, Customer will have the option to cancel the applicable Connection , all Connections, or the Agreement as a whole upon PIE’ receipt of written notice. Such termination shall be without any further obligation to PIE other than the payment of all amounts due and owing to PIE through the date of such termination inclusive of any credits that apply to Customer. Failure by Customer to provide PIE with timely notifications as set forth herein, will be deemed a waiver by Customer of this termination right.
