1. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

1.1 This Agreement is made between KX Systems, Inc. (“KX”, “We” or “we”) and you, the person or entity (“User”, “You” or “you”) accessing KX Insights™ Platform, any documentation relating thereto, which may be made available to you at code.staging.kx.com (together “KXI”) and where applicable, the software related support services (“Services”) as set out in Schedule 2. Definitions are set out in Schedule 4. KX and User are each a “Party” and together the “Parties”.

1.2 KX Insights™ Platform is a streaming analytics programme made available to you via Azure Marketplace at https://azure.microsoft.com/marketplace/ (“Azure Marketplace”) and available to run on Microsoft Azure (“Microsoft Azure” or “Cloud Provider”). Azure Marketplace and Microsoft Azure are owned and controlled by Microsoft Corporation. Cloud Provider means a third party that sells or leases use or partial use of computers that are under its control. KX shall not in any way be liable for the services provided to you by Cloud Provider (or any issues with KXI arising from Cloud Provider’s services), which services shall be subject to and governed by a separate agreement between you and Microsoft Corporation.

1.3 You are required to pay for access to and usage of KXI as specified in this Agreement. You shall make such payment directly to KX. Subject to your payment of specified fees, you will have access to KXI to be used strictly by you within the Microsoft Azure environment. Notwithstanding the use of KXI via Microsoft Azure, we remain the owners of KXI at all times.

 

 

2. FEES AND PAYMENT

2.1 Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, all payments made under this Agreement are non-refundable and your access and use of KXI is non-cancellable. Your use of KXI and the fees therefore are subject to the Usage Policy as specified in Schedule 3.

2.2 You agree that KX may use usage logging which will automatically record the information required to be included in the Usage Report (defined in the Usage Policy) and either, at KX’s option, (i) automatically send those reports to us or (ii) prepare them to be sent to us by you. You shall not (a) disable any such automatic logging or (b) implement any changes which block or restrict KX’s access to such logs.

2.3 Failure to Pay Fees. Without prejudice to our other rights, we may suspend your license to use and access KXI and/or the Services if you become more than thirty (30) days delinquent on any payments under this Agreement. We may suspend or terminate the Agreement immediately on notice.  Our failure to exercise our rights under this section 2.3 shall not prohibit or affect our right to subsequently exercise them.

2.4 Taxes.  Your fees under this Agreement exclude any taxes or duties payable in respect of KXI. To the extent that any such taxes or duties are payable by us, you must pay to us the amount of such taxes or duties in addition to any fees owed under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you have obtained an exemption from relevant taxes or duties as of the time such taxes or duties are levied or assessed, you may provide us with such exemption information, and we will use reasonable efforts to provide you with invoicing documents designed to enable you to obtain a refund or credit from the relevant revenue authority, if such a refund or credit is available.

2.5 Withholding Taxes. You will pay all fees net of any applicable withholding taxes. You and we will work together to avoid any withholding tax if exemptions, or a reduced treaty withholding rate, are available. If we qualify for a tax exemption, or a reduced treaty withholding rate, we will provide you with reasonable documentary proof. You will provide us reasonable evidence that you have paid the relevant authority for the sum withheld or deducted.

2.6 Overdue Amounts. If you fail to make any payment by the due date, you will pay interest in addition to the overdue amount at the lesser of (i) a rate of 4% per annum above Bank of America’s then-current base rate, and (ii) the maximum amount allowable under applicable law.  This interest accrues on a daily basis until actual payment of the overdue amount.

2.7 Set Off. You will not withhold, reduce or set-off any amounts owed to KX under this Agreement.

 

3. PERMITTED USE

3.1 Provision of Access. Subject to (i) your payment of all fees due to KXI and (ii) your strict compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, KX hereby grants to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right, without the right to grant sublicenses, to access and use KXI via Microsoft Azure solely for your internal (a) business operations and (b) development and testing of KXI. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as the grant of any license or other right to you, to or in respect of any Intellectual Property Rights or Confidential Information of KX except as expressly set forth herein. You may not access or use KXI from countries where such use is prohibited by Trade Control Laws (defined in Section 12.4 below).

3.2 Usage by Affiliates. You may provide access to KXI to your Affiliates. You will be liable to and responsible for any losses, costs, expenses or damages incurred by, or claims received by, us as the result of the acts and/or omissions of your Affiliates. You agree that any act or omission by any such Affiliate that would be a breach of the Agreement if the Affiliate were a Party to the Agreement will be considered a breach by you. The rights of your Affiliates with respect to KXI will be no greater than your rights, and the obligations of your Affiliates with respect to the use of KXI will be no less than your obligations.  You will take all such steps as are necessary to ensure that your Affiliates comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement to the same extent as you are obligated to comply with its terms and conditions.

3.3 High-Risk Activities. KXI is not designed or developed for use in high-risk, hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, including without limitation in the operation of life support systems, implantable medical equipment, nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or control systems, air traffic control, or weapons systems, or any other application in which the failure of KXI could lead to severe physical or environmental damages (“High Risk Activities”). You will not use KXI for High-Risk Activities.

 

4. RESTRICTIONS ON KXI USE.

4.1 Usage Restrictions. You agree that, except as specified in Section 3.2, (i) your access to KXI is solely for you and you will not allow or permit another Person to have any right to view, access or use KXI on your behalf; (ii) you shall not transfer, sell, copy, frame, mirror, sublicense, assign, publish, rent, loan or use KXI on a service bureau basis, distribute or otherwise deal in KXI for any reason, whether or not over a network or on a hosted basis, including in connection with the internet or any web hosting, wide-area network (WAN), virtual private network (VPN), virtualization, time-sharing, service bureau, software as a service, cloud or other technology or service; and (iii) you shall not view, access or use KXI in any manner or for any purpose other than as expressly authorized in Section 3.1 above.

4.3 Security. When registering, you must provide us with the most up to date contact details for you, and you must notify us promptly if this changes after your registration. This is to ensure we can alert you about any potential security incidents or vulnerabilities. You shall not and shall not permit another Person to do anything to compromise our user registration process, the security of the Azure service, or related services or systems. You must immediately report suspected security events, including security incidents and vulnerabilities concerning KXI or Azure that you become aware of. You must promptly install the latest Releases or Versions of KXI and its dependencies. If a later Release or Version addresses a security incident or vulnerability, we will not be liable for any losses you may suffer as a result of any such incidents or vulnerabilities which occur if you do not install that Release or Version. KXI does not, to our reasonable belief having taken commercially reasonable steps to verify, contain any Malicious Code and we will take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that we do not introduce Malicious Code into KXI.

4.4 Malicious Code. In addition to the foregoing, you shall not and shall not permit another Person to use KXI to access, store, process, distribute or transmit any Malicious Code.

4.5 Breach of Restrictions. KX reserves the right, without liability or prejudice to its other rights to you, to disable your access to KXI in the event of any breach of the provisions of Sections 4.1 through 4.4. You agree that KX shall have no liability of any kind in any circumstances to you or a third party if KX is required to disable your access and you will indemnify KX for any third party claim it suffers due to any breach by you of Sections 4.1 through 4.5.

 

5. ACCESS AND REPORTING

5.1 Access. Upon successful registration in accordance with our then-current registration procedures, you will be provided with access to KXI in Microsoft Azure only. Such access will continue unless (i) you delay or are delinquent in the payment of fees to KX (ii) the Agreement is terminated or your access is suspended in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or (iii) you fail to maintain your subscription with Microsoft Azure.

5.2 Reporting to KXI. In accordance with Section 2.2, you are responsible for permitting our access to your usage reporting and where requested, providing us with manual usage logs. Any attempt by you to disable or restrict us from having such access may result in your access being suspended or terminated. If our license manager software determines that you are not licensed to use KXI, we may, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies, suspend or terminate your access to KXI.

5.3 Aggregated Statistics. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, KX may monitor your use of KXI and collect and compile data and information that is used by KX in an aggregate and de-identified manner as further detailed in Schedule 1, including but not limited to, (i) compiling statistical and performance information related to the provision and operation of KXI and (ii) monitoring your usage (“Aggregated Statistics”). As between KX and you, all right, title, and interest in Aggregated Statistics, and all Intellectual Property Rights therein, belong to and are retained solely by KX. You acknowledge that KX may compile Aggregated Statistics based on user data input into KXI. You agree that KX may (i) make Aggregated Statistics publicly available in compliance with applicable law, and (ii) use Aggregated Statistics for the furtherance of its own business purposes to the extent and in the manner permitted under applicable law, provided that such Aggregated Statistics do not identify you or your Confidential Information.

5.4 Software Support Services. Subject to your payment of all fees due for KXI, we will provide you with the Services as detailed in Schedule 2 to this Agreement.

5.5 Audit. We may request you to complete a self-audit process related to your compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable usage restrictions set forth in Schedule 3. This means that you must promptly provide any information and documents that we, or an independent auditor reasonably request. If this process reveals any non-compliance, we reserve the right, upon prior notice to you, to audit usage of KXI at your premises (and at the premises of or via virtual access to your hosting provider) during normal business hours.

 

6. OWNERSHIP of KXI

6.1 You acknowledge and agree that KX owns all right, title and interest in KXI and any Feedback and any Intellectual Property (whether registerable or unregisterable) appurtenant thereto including in any, modifications, new Versions, Releases, improvements, or developments to KXI arising during this Agreement. To the extent that any of the foregoing rights vests in you, such rights are hereby automatically assigned by you to KX.

6.2 Your permission to use such Intellectual Property rights is authorized only for the purposes set forth herein and upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, such authorization will automatically cease. You agree and acknowledge that KXI is proprietary and contains confidential and valuable trade secrets of KX, which you agree to safeguard as provided for under Section 10, Confidential Information, below.

6.3 For the avoidance of doubt, you disclaim all right, title and interest in KXI (whether in whole or in part), regardless of whether KXI is embedded in an application or program developed by you. You irrevocably waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any and all claims you may now or hereafter have in any jurisdiction to so-called “moral rights.” Such moral rights (including if KXI is embedded in an application or program developed by you) shall vest in and be owned by KX absolutely pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Agreement. You shall not apply for or register any patents, trademarks, trade names, inventions, copyrights, know-how or trade secrets relating to the design, manufacture and operation of any application or program if any such product or application in any manner utilizes KXI or if any such application or registration includes any reference to or any aspect of KXI (whether in whole or in part) or any KX Confidential Information.

 

7. LIMITED WARRANTY

7.1 Limited Warranty. We warrant to you only, and not to any third party (including your Affiliates), that KXI will perform substantially in accordance with the then-current documentation for KXI (which may be made available to you at code.staging.kx.com) for a period of ninety (90) days from the date you are granted access to KXI pursuant to this Agreement (“Warranty Period”). We do not warrant and we disclaim any implied warranty that the operation of KXI will be error free or uninterrupted or that KXI will achieve any intended result or that it will be compatible, work with or continue to work with third party software or hardware.

7.2 Remedy. If during the Warranty Period KXI does not perform as warranted in Section 7.1 above, we will undertake to correct or replace KXI or, if correction or replacement of KXI is not reasonably possible, we may terminate the Agreement and refund to you a pro-rata amount for any fees paid in advance hereunder for any remaining period of the Subscription Term. The foregoing are your sole and exclusive remedies for breach of this warranty.

7.3 Compliance with Laws. We warrant that we will provide KXI and Services to you in compliance with any laws applicable to us generally, without regard to your specific use of KXI and Services.  You warrant that you will use KXI and Services in compliance with all applicable laws.

7.4 Other than the warranties expressly stated above or documented elsewhere in the Agreement, no express or implied warranties shall apply to KXI, its documentation or Services covered by the Agreement which shall be provided on an “as is” basis. We expressly disclaim any implied warranties that may apply, including (without limitation) in relation to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, satisfactory quality and non-infringement.

 

8. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 By KX. Subject to the remainder of this Section 8, we will defend you against, or at our option, settle any Infringement Claim. We will indemnify you from any damages finally awarded against you (including your reasonable attorney’s fees) in respect of the Infringement Claim. Our liability and obligation under this indemnity is conditional on the following:  if any third party makes a claim, or notifies an intention to make a claim, against you which may reasonably be considered likely to give rise to an Infringement Claim, you will: (i) as soon as reasonably practicable, give us written notice of the Infringement Claim, specifying the nature of the Infringement Claim in reasonable detail; (ii) not make any admission of liability, agreement, settlement or compromise in relation to the Infringement Claim without our prior written consent or otherwise prejudice our defence of such Infringement Claim; (iii) give us and our professional advisers reasonable access (on reasonable prior notice) to your premises, personnel and records as required for us to assess and defend the Infringement Claim; and (iv) give us sole control over and authority to avoid, dispute, settle or defend such Infringement Claim; provided that we will not settle any such Infringement Claim without your prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the settlement unconditionally releases you from further liability, and does not place undue restrictions on your business, products or services.

8.2 KX Options. If any third party makes, or notifies an intention to make, a claim against you which may reasonably be considered likely to give rise to an Infringement Claim, or we reasonably conclude that KXI may be liable to an Infringement Claim, we may, at our own expense and option: (i) procure for you the right to continue to use KXI; or (ii) replace (within a reasonable period of time) the infringing components of KXI with other components with the same or similar functionality that are, in all material respects, acceptable to you (acting reasonably); or (iii) suitably modify KXI (within a reasonable period of time) so that it is non-infringing without material loss in functionality.  If none of the foregoing options are available to us on commercially reasonable terms, we will have the right to terminate the Agreement without having any further liability to you except: (a) as provided in Section 8.1 above; and (b) we shall refund you a pro-rata amount of any fees paid in advance for any remaining period of the Subscription Term for which you are unable to use KXI. This Section 8 states our entire liability to you in respect of the Infringement Claim.

8.3 Limitation. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1, we assume no liability for, and do not indemnify you against: (i) infringements which would not have arisen without the combination by you of KXI with any other software or hardware products; (ii) connections  or integrations of the KXI with any of your products or any of your components, whether enabled through APIs, third party software or Dependencies or otherwise; (iii) modifications to KXI made by any Person other than us or which are not made under our direction; (iv) use of an unsupported Version of KXI pursuant to the Software Support Terms at Schedule 2 or the failure to install any Error Correction or Release (defined in the Software Support Terms at Schedule 2)  to the extent such infringement would have been avoided by the use of the current Version or installation of the Error Correction or Release (as applicable); (v) trade mark infringements involving any marking or branding not applied by us or involving any marking or branding applied at your request and not approved by us; (vi) infringements arising from your negligence or wilful infringement, or (vii) any use of KXI outside of the Microsoft Azure environment.

8.4 By You. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any loss, liability, claim, damage, fine, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of a claim, suit or proceeding brought by a third party arising out of or in connection with: (i) use of KXI or Services in violation of the Agreement; (ii) any decision made or action taken by you or any other Person on the basis of KXI or product or works produced using KXI and not caused by any fault or error with KXI; (iii) the combination of KXI with other software, systems, applications or hardware which infringes or misappropriates any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, and (iv) suits or actions arising as a result of your violation of any Microsoft Azure terms, including to the extent that you use or attempt to use KXI outside of the Microsoft Azure environment and which causes us to violate any Microsoft Azure terms.

8.5 Reduction in Indemnification. The indemnifying Party’s liability to indemnify shall be reduced to the extent that such claims, suits or actions are subject to the indemnitee’s obligations to indemnify in the Agreement.

8.6 Mitigation. Each Party will use reasonable endeavours to avoid or mitigate any loss it may suffer or incur as a result of an event that may give rise to a claim under this Section 8.

10. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

10.1 Confidential Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means information, in any form, disclosed by one Party to the other Party and which is marked or identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or otherwise that would be regarded as confidential by a reasonable business person under the circumstances of disclosure. KX’s Confidential Information will include KXI including any Intellectual Property Rights appurtenant thereto and any Aggregated Statistics.

10.2 Non-Disclosure. Each Party agrees that during the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, it will treat as confidential all Confidential Information of the other Party, provided however with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law) such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for so long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law. Each Party will not use such Confidential Information except to exercise or enforce its rights or perform its obligations hereunder or as otherwise authorized in writing, will implement reasonable procedures to prohibit the disclosure, duplication, misuse or removal of the other Party’s Confidential Information and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party except as may be necessary in connection with the rights and obligations of such Party under this Agreement, and subject to confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein, and the Party disclosing the information to such third party shall remain responsible for such third party’s compliance with those confidentiality obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party will use at least the same procedures and degree of care that it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like importance to prevent the disclosure of Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party under this Agreement, but in no event less than reasonable care.

You are required to check the terms of the Agreement as they apply at the commencement of each Renewal Subscription Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in some cases (e.g. to address compliance with laws, or as necessary for new features) we may specify that such modifications become effective during your then-current Subscription Term, in which case we will notify you of any such modifications. You acknowledge and agree that by continuing to use KXI from the date of any revision, you agree to be bound by the revised terms.

12.5 Personal Data. Each Party agrees to comply with its applicable obligations under Data Protection Laws in relation to its processing of personal data under this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that for the purposes of Data Protection Laws, it is an independent and separate controller in respect of any personal data which it processes in connection with the provision and/or receipt of KXI and the Services and that each independently of (and not jointly with) the other Party determines the purposes for which and the manner in which any such personal data is, or is to be, processed. You agree not to provide or make available to us any personal data in the context of receiving the Services, except for the personal data that we require from time to time in order to provide the Services (including the names, job position and title, organisation, contact details and security authorisations of your authorised representatives). We will use this personal data for the purposes of providing the Services, including as described in our privacy notice relating to the Services (which can be found or linked on the designated support portal, or as otherwise provided to you by us from time to time) (“Privacy Notice”). Where you provide or make available to us any personal data in the context of the Services, you agree to provide the relevant data subjects with a copy of the Privacy Notice as soon as practicable (unless the data subject already has the information or provision of the Privacy Notice proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort), and you warrant that the personal data you provide to us or make available to us on your behalf has been collected and made available to us lawfully and may be used by us for the purposes of providing Services in compliance with Data Protection Laws.

12.6 General. This is the only Agreement between you and KX relating to your access to KXI via Microsoft Azure. The parties to this Agreement are independent contractors. Nothing contained herein or done pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute either Party being the agent or employee of the other Party for any purpose or constitute the parties as partners or joint venturers. Neither Party shall create or assume any obligation on behalf of the other Party for any purpose whatsoever, unless such other Party expressly agrees to such an obligation in writing. The parties to this Agreement do not intend that any term of this Agreement will be enforceable by any third party or Person who is not a Party to this Agreement. This Agreement including any supplemental terms referenced herein, (a) represents the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to KXI and the Services acquired hereunder; (b) supersedes any previous communications, representations or agreements between the Parties; and (c) prevails over any conflicting or additional terms in any quote, purchase order, acknowledgement, or similar communications between the Parties.

Except for the limited rights and licenses expressly granted under this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement grants, by implication, waiver, estoppel, or otherwise, to you or any third party. The waiver by either Party of a breach or right under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach or right. Except with respect to payment obligations, non-performance of either Party shall be excused to the extent that performance is rendered impossible by strike, fire, flood, governmental acts, order or restrictions, failure of suppliers, or any other reason where failure to perform is beyond the control and not caused by the negligence of the non-performing Party.

12.7 Governing Law. This Agreement and all related documents and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement whether in contract, tort, or statute shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America.

You hereby waive any objections to venue in those courts. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation, or proceeding is conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Should any provision of this Agreement be declared unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then such provision shall be deemed to be severed from this Agreement and shall not affect the remainder hereof. Furthermore, with respect to a violation by you of the provisions of sections 3, 4 or 5 and/or payment obligations relating to this Agreement, or for actions for injunctive relief to protect KX Confidential Information and Intellectual Property, KX will have the right at its discretion to seek remedies in courts of competent jurisdiction within any applicable territory. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, as currently enacted by any jurisdiction or as may be codified or amended from time to time by any jurisdiction, do not apply to this Agreement.

12.8 Dispute. Except in the case of a Party seeking to exercise its right to injunctive relief or any other provisional remedy, or in the case of infringement or misappropriation of our Intellectual Property Rights or violation or disclosure of Confidential Information, in the event of a dispute between the Parties relating to the Agreement, the Party raising the matter in dispute will notify the other in writing describing in sufficient detail the nature of the dispute. Each Party will then appoint or nominate one or more senior representatives to resolve the dispute.

3. Problem Definition and Severities

3.1 The table below defines the severity levels applied to Errors arising or reported in the provision of the Services and the Support Hours, Response Periods and Update Frequencies allocated to each such severity level (according to the level of support you have purchased). The severity of a call may change throughout its duration. For example, an S2 call may be upgraded to S1 if a fault affecting some users spreads to make KXI unavailable to all users; or an S1 call could be downgraded to S2 if a workaround is provided in advance of fixing a fault.

3.2 The severity level allocated to a call initially will be at our sole discretion. If you believe that events require the severity level to be altered, a request to change the severity level may be made to the Service Desk. The severity level allocated to a call is determined according to the following table:

Severity Level	Description		Standard	Enterprise Plus
S1	Critical business Impact – your production use of KXI on a primary business service, major application or mission-critical system is stopped or severely impacted which severely impacts your normal business operations.	Support Hours	9am-5pm business days	24/7 x 365
		Response Period	4 hours	30 minutes
		Update Frequency	Weekly	1 hour
S2	Significant Business Impact – Serious problem but continued use of KXI is still possible (production) or a serious problem irrespective of whether continued use of KXI is still possible (non-production environment)	Support Hours	9am-5pm business days	24/7 x 365
		Response Period	2 business days	1 hour
		Update Frequency	Weekly	4 hours
S3	Minimal Business Impact – Product features are unavailable in KXI but a workaround exists and the majority of functions are still useable. Minor function/feature failure that you can easily circumvent or avoid. Your business operations have minor loss of operational functionality.	Support Hours	9am-5pm business days	9am-5pm business days
		Response Period	1 week	4 hours
		Update Frequency	N/A	1 business day
S4	Nominal Business Impact – Minor problem or question that does not affect KXI function such as How-To’s, documentation, general questions, or enhancement requests. There is no impact to KXI usage or your operations.	Support Hours	9am-5pm business days	9am-5pm business days
		Response Period	N/A	1 business day
		Update Frequency	N/A	Weekly

 

3.3 Where an issue is considered Severity 1 (S1), this should always be reported to the Service Desk by phone (to the number provided to you for this purpose) for expediency. You must pro-vide dedicated resources to work 24 hours x 7 days on S1 issues. Subject to the foregoing, all other support calls shall be raised via the Support Portal and responses will be provided via that Support Portal, unless otherwise deemed necessary by us.

3.4 Response Period is the time permitted to respond to the call, will be defined per ticket and is dependent upon the severity level of the ticket, as determined in the table above, and the level of support you have purchased. The Response Period shall commence when a Support Portal ticket has been fully and properly logged by you with sufficient information for us to be able to make an initial determination of the severity level of the ticket. Our first response within the Response Period will consist of an acknowledgement on the Support Portal that the ticket has been raised and queued and shall provide an initial determination of the severity level of the ticket (“First Response”). If the initial call is received by phone for a S1 Error, we will raise a ticket (with the same information) on the Support Portal, which shall constitute our First Response.

3.5 Any call other than in relation to S1 Errors which is received outside of Support Hours (where relevant) shall be deemed received at the start of the next business day. In addition, target response times only run during Support Hours (where relevant). So, by way of example, if you have Standard Support and a S2 call is reported at 4pm on Friday, the response deadline shall be by 4pm on Tuesday.

3.6 We will provide updates as to the status of our response to the ticket at the Update Frequencies set out in the table above (“Update Frequencies”). Update Frequencies shall commence from the time of our First Response.

3.7 We will not in any way be liable for delay or failure to provide Services where such failure or delay is due to Cloud Provider’s issues, nor do we provide support for any third-party system or environment.
