Exhibit D - CivicPlus Service Level Agreement
CivicPlus will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the GCMS® available with a Monthly Uptime Percentage (defined below) of
at least 99.7%, in each case during any monthly billing cycle (the “Service Commitment”). In the event CivicPlus does not meet the
Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below.
Definitions
“Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of minutes during the month in which the
CGMS, was “Unavailable.” Monthly Uptime Percentage measurements exclude downtime resulting directly or indirectly from
any Exclusion (defined below).
“Unavailable” and “Unavailability” mean:
o The HTML of the home page of the site is not delivered in 10 seconds or less 3 times in a row when tested from
inside our network and returns a status of 200.
o The Main page of the site returns a status other than 200 or 302 3 times in a row.
A “Service Credit” is a dollar credit, calculated as set forth below, that we may credit back to an eligible account.
Service Commitments and Service Credits
Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges paid by you (excluding one-time payments such as upfront
payments) for the month accordance with the schedule below.
Monthly Uptime Percentage Service Credit Percentage
Less than 99.7% 1% of one month’s fee
We will apply any Service Credits only against future payments otherwise due from you. Service Credits will not entitle you to any
refund or other payment from CivicPlus. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable
monthly billing cycle is greater than one dollar ($1 USD). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. Unless
otherwise provided in the Client Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by
us to provide the service is the receipt of a Service Credit (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.
Credit Request and Payment Procedures
To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a case with Support. To be eligible, the credit request must be
received by us by the end of the second billing cycle after which the incident occurred and must include:
1. the words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;
2. the dates and times of each Unavailability incident that you are claiming;
3. the affected Site domains; and
4. Any documentation that corroborate your claimed outage.
If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the Service Commitment, then we will issue the
Service Credit to you within one billing cycle following the month in which your request is confirmed by us. Your failure to provide the
request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit.
SLA Exclusions
The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of GCMS®, or any other GCMS® performance
issues: (i) that result from a suspension; (ii) caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or
Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of CivicPlus; (iii) that result from any actions or inactions of you or
any third party; (iv) that result from your equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software or other
technology (other than third party equipment within our direct control); (v) that result from any maintenance as provided for pursuant to
the Client Agreement; or (vi) arising from our suspension and termination of your right to use the GCMS® in accordance with the Client
Agreement (collectively, the “SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our Monthly Uptime
Percentage calculation, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.
