Each proposed CSO will be consecutively numbered and include a “Quote ”
Upon execution in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(a), any such CSO shall automatically be incorporated as part of this Agreement and shall be subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent that terms or conditions of a CSO (including the Additional Terms and Conditions included in the CSO) conflict with terms or conditions of this Agreement, or the Additional Terms and Conditions (defined below), the terms and conditions of the CSO shall govern unless, and only to the extent, expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement. If Customer and EIGHTY8NETWORKS execute multiple CSOs, each additional CSO will supplement rather than replace the prior CSO unless designated as an amendment to a prior CSO. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, EIGHTY8NETWORKS has no obligation to execute any CSO with
Any modification of a CSO must be evidenced by a writing signed by both
Each CSO shall include a “Requested Install Date” for each product listed on the CSO. EIGHTY8NETWORKS will in good faith use reasonable efforts to complete installation of each product by the respective “Requested Install Date” but does not guarantee that installation will be completed by such “Requested Install Date.”
If the Customer cancels a CSO prior to commencement of installation of Service, Customer will be responsible for any and all third-party costs incurred by EIGHTY8NETWORKS, including but not limited to the costs of carrier circuits, equipment costs, construction costs, and building access EIGHTY8NETWORKS will invoice those costs to Customer within 30 days of receiving Customer’s notice of cancellation and will be due immediately upon receipt of the invoice. If a cancellation is received after the Provisioner has scheduled a turn-up date as provided in EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s Process and Installation Terms, Customer must pay the Monthly Recurring Charges for that Service multiplied by the number of months in the initial Service term.

2. Effective Date and Term

Unless otherwise terminated in accordance with this Agreement, (i) the initial term of this Agreement shall begin on the date first set forth above (“Effective Date”) and end 12 months from the Effective Date, and (ii) the term of this Agreement and CSOs for installed Services under this Agreement shall thereafter automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless either party gives written notice to the other party of non-renewal at least 60 days but not more than 90 days before the end of the applicable term.

If notice of termination of this Agreement is timely provided, but there are outstanding CSOs at the time this Agreement would terminate, this Agreement shall remain in effect solely to govern such CSOs until expiration of all CSOs (in accordance with their terms) and then shall automatically terminate.

3. General Payment Terms

All Monthly Recurring Charges (as specified on the outstanding CSOs) are due and payable in advance of the month immediately preceding the month for which the Services are to be provided and will commence in accordance with the attached Process and Installation terms. EIGHTY8NETWORKS will issue invoices for such amounts as of the first day of each month that will be due and payable on the 15th of the month (“Due Date”).

4. Burst Usage Payment Terms

EIGHTY8NETWORKS will measure Customer’ bandwidth usage in five-minute intervals for each point of connection between Customer and EIGHTY8NETWORKS (or its up-stream provider) in two categories: incoming and outgoing. At the end of each billing cycle, all data samples in each category will be sorted from highest to lowest, and the top 5% of measurements will be discarded. The highest remaining data sample in the higher of the two categories will then constitute the bandwidth usage level for that billing cycle. Burst usage is the amount of bandwidth usage for the billing cycle exceeding Customer’s Minimum Committed Data Amount (as specified on the applicable CSO). Monthly burst usage charges shall be invoiced monthly in arrears and shall be due and payable on the Monthly Recurring Charges Due Date next following the date on which the invoice is received (“Due Date” for burst usage charges).

5. Interest; Billing Disputes

Any undisputed amounts not paid in full by the applicable Due Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall bear interest from such Due Date until paid in full at the rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus two percent, where Prime Rate means the rate of interest published by The Wall Street Journal as the prime rate in the column entitled “Money Rates,” such rate to change automatically effective with each change in such prime rate. Invoices to Customer shall be deemed correct, and the right to the invoice will be waived unless Customer sends the dispute to billing@Eighty8networks.com within 30 days of the invoice date.

6. Service Level Agreement

EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s applicable service level agreement will be attached to the CSO.

7. Default and Termination and Disconnects

A “Customer Default” occurs if Customer (a) fails to make payment as required under this Agreement, and such failure remains uncorrected for seven days after the applicable Due Date; (b) fails to perform or observe any material term or obligation contained in this Agreement or under any CSO and such default remains uncured for 5 days following notice of default from EIGHTY8NETWORKS; (c) uses the Services for any unlawful purpose or in any unlawful manner, or violates Carrier’s Acceptable Use Policy, or (d) (i) suffers an involuntary petition in bankruptcy to be filed against it, (ii) files any petition in any reorganization, arrangement, compromise, readjustment, liquidation, or dissolution or similar relief for itself, or (iii) becomes unable to pay its debts generally as they become due. In the event of a Customer Default, EIGHTY8NETWORKS shall have the right (without any liability, and in its sole discretion) to (a) suspend and/or terminate any or all Services being provided to Customer and/or (b) terminate any or all outstanding CSOs and/or this Agreement. If the Customer Default materially adversely affects the carrier’s network, EIGHTY8NETWORKS may take such actions immediately and without prior notice to Customer. Otherwise, EIGHTY8NETWORKS shall provide at least two business days’ notice, in writing or by electronic mail, of EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s intention to suspend and/or terminate service. If this Agreement is terminated due to a Customer Default, the Customer will continue to be liable for the Monthly Recurring Charges as provided in the CSO for the balance of the then-current term. EIGHTY8NETWORKS shall at all times be entitled to all rights available to it at law and in equity for Customer’s default, and Customer agrees to pay EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s reasonable expenses (including attorney and collection agency fees) incurred in the enforcement of EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s rights in the event of a Customer Default. If EIGHTY8NETWORKS terminates a Service pursuant to this Section 7, EIGHTY8NETWORKS may, in its sole discretion, agree to resume the discontinued Service after it is reasonably satisfied Customer has cured the breach(es), which gave rise to EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s right to suspend the Service. EIGHTY8NETWORKS may charge a reinstatement fee to resume the discontinued Service.
Customer Disconnect requests will not be effective unless emailed to disconnects@Eighty8networks.com and must include the EIGHTY8NETWORKS Circuit ID#, Customer Account Number, and reason for An automated email response will be provided to the customer once the disconnect email request has been sent. Disconnect requests will take 60 days to process from date of emailed notification and may be subject to early termination fees as provided in the CSO unless the initial term has expired and the Customer has provided timely notice of non- renewal in accordance with Section 2.

If Customer claims an exemption from an Applicable Tax for a particular Service, Customer must provide EIGHTY8NETWORKS with a valid exemption certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to EIGHTY8NETWORKS. EIGHTY8NETWORKS will give effect to any such exemption certificate on a prospective basis from and after EIGHTY8NETWORKS’s receipt of such exemption certificate. If Customer fails to provide EIGHTY8NETWORKS with accurate information regarding the jurisdiction of traffic carried over any Service designated as intrastate, Customer agrees that it may be liable to EIGHTY8NETWORKS for any surcharges or other fees attributable to such failure, notwithstanding any back-billing restrictions that may otherwise apply.

9. Regulatory and Legal Changes
