Severity Levels and Response Times. The following are a description of the service levels and the service level response times:
Severity Levels and Response Times. For any issue reported or Support request made to Mercatus during the Term of this Agreement, Mercatus will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide an initial response, replicate the issue and resolve such issue or provide support for the request in a timely manner. Each Support request is assigned a priority based on the severity of the support request. The severity is determined by: • Users ability to use the software to execute the intended business function; • The extent to which the User is unable to perform that function; • The impact on the business of not being able to perform that function as well as the standard use of the function as designed by Mercatus. Support request priorities are: • Critical: Production services down or major malfunction resulting in a product inoperative condition. Users are unable to reasonably perform their normal functions. • High: Critical loss of platform functionality or performance resulting in a high number of users unable to perform their normal functions. Major feature/product failure; inconvenient workaround or no workaround exists. The platform is usable but severely limited. • Medium: Moderate loss of application functionality or performance resulting in multiple users impacted in their normal functions. Minor feature/product failure, a convenient workaround exists/minor performance degradation/not impacting production. • Low: Minor loss of application functionality, product feature requests, how-to questions. The issue consists of "how-to" questions including issues related to one or multiple modules and integration, installation and configuration inquiries, enhancement requests, or documentation questions.
Severity Levels and Response Times. Flexera will reasonably prioritize support requests from Customer according to the severity levels set forth in the table below. Flexera will endeavor to provide a response to Customer’s request for technical support assistance per the applicable severity level, which will be measured from assignment of a case number (the “Initial Response”). As used herein, Initial Response will mean Flexera’s confirming receipt of an error from Customer verifying the details of such error, and delivering to Customer, if applicable, (a) a list of additional information reasonably required by Flexera, and (b) a description of the assistance reasonably required by Flexera from Customer to assist in the evaluation of the report and diagnosis of the error or symptoms. An “Action Plan” is the initial diagnosis by Flexera of the errors or symptoms and identification of the schedule that Flexera expects to work towards in pursuit of resolving the identified problem. For clarity, Flexera does not commit to resolving every error; Flexera will determine in its sole discretion whether to provide a resolution to the issue or a temporary workaround for the issue as it deems appropriate. Severity Level Severity Level Definition Initial Response Updates on Status 1 – Critical Production use of the SaaS is stopped or so severely impacted that authorized end users cannot reasonably use it. Flexera will work continuously to resolve the support request until the support request is closed. 0.5 Support Hours Once every eight (8) Support Hours until Action Plan is established 2 – High Major SaaS documented features are unavailable with no workaround. Use of the SaaS can continue; however, productivity is significantly decreased. Flexera will work continuously to resolve the support request until the support request is closed. Two (2) Support Hours Once every eight (8) Support Hours until Action Plan is established 3 – Medium Major SaaS documented features are unavailable, but a workaround is available, or less significant SaaS documented features are unavailable with no reasonable workaround. Eight (8) Support Hours Once every forty (40) Support Hours until Action Plan is established 4 – Low User requests information about the SaaS or an enhancement to the existing SaaS specifications. Use of the SaaS is available without being materially and adversely impeded. Forty (40) Support Hours Once every forty (40) Support Hours until Action Plan is established

Customer shall notify SA at xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx or 949-777-6959, ext. 2. The following tables describe the severity levels classification for problems and the expected response time for each problem severity level. SA will respond to problem callouts within the timeframes set forth immediately below: Severity Type Support Hours Response Time Restoration of Service Target Severity 1 – Critical There is the potential of a health, safety or security issue to occur or it has already occurred. This will have an operational or financial impact to the business.

Severity Levels and Response Times. This section provides guidelines that the Relativity Support Team uses to assign a severity level to Client’s problem. Relativity will assign Severity Levels to issues as they are received, but reserves the right to reclassify the Severity Level at its reasonable discretion.
Severity Levels and Response Times. It is anticipated that problems detected with the Falcon system will be identified and communicated from Cendant. Each problem reported to the Falcon Software Support Staff will be given a severity level by appropriate Falcon Software Support Staff. The severity level is determined depending upon the nature of the problem, as described below. In the event that Cendant reasonably disputes any severity level assigned by the applicable Falcon Software Support Staff (and in the event that the dispute cannot be resolved immediately to Cendant's reasonable satisfaction and approval), the severity level shall be adjusted to a level that is acceptable to Cendant. The following Severity Level matrix has been established for problems reported to the Falcon Software Support Staff. Each problem, depending upon its nature, should be tagged by the support person receiving the call with one of the following severity levels. This information is to be recorded in the problem management system as identified by Top Producer and reasonably approved by Cendant. The level of severity will, in turn, have a maximum response time service level set for it as described in the following matrix. The response times are the times in which the Falcon Software Support Staff shall provide a verbal status report and an estimated time for resolution (ETR), with all steps identified to correct the problem to Cendant Management. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Falcon Software Support Staff shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any and all problems referred to the Falcon Software Support Staff in accordance with the cure periods set forth below. The Falcon Software Support Staff shall escalate problems to both Cendant and Top Producer management if the Falcon Software Support Staff believes that it will not be able to comply with the cure periods set forth below.
Severity Levels and Response Times. For all issues at each severity level, ThinKom shall respond as identified below.
