2.2 | Help Desk. Customer shall have telephone, email and fax access to Hostway’s support helpdesk 24/7. The helpdesk shall be used by the Customer to submit problem reports and by Hostway to provide technical support and answer specific information requests. Hostway shall appoint a senior Network Operations Engineer as Customer’s point of contact to coordinate Customer’s maintenance/upgrades and troubleshooting requests. However, Customer agrees to follow Hostway’s ordinary support procedures. |
2.3 | Response and Resolution Times. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in the SLA, the following sets forth the required deadlines for timely handling of any Hardware Issue or a Network Issue reported to Hostway by Customer: |
Initial Response |
Status Updates |
Maximum Resolution Time | ||
• Immediately, if reported to Hostway by phone
• Within 30 minutes of notification to Hostway if reported by email or trouble ticket |
Every 30 minutes from Initial Response until resolved (unless otherwise agreed by Customer) | 1 hour from Initial Response by Hostway (unless otherwise agreed by Customer) |
For clarity, “Initial Response” shall mean only an acknowledgement of the Hardware Issue or Network Issue as reported to Hostway by Customer.
2.4 | Day Credits. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in the SLA, this Section C, Paragraph 2.4 sets forth the calculation of Day Credits in the event Customer experiences a Hardware Issue or Network Issue. |
(a) | Definitions. For the purposes of this Section C, Paragraph 2.4, the following definitions shall apply: |
i. | “Day Credit” shall mean 1/30th of the monthly Fee for the particular Managed Server or the particular Service that is not Operational. |
ii. | “Operational” shall mean that Customer’s Server responds to a ping-test initiated by a mutually agreed upon third-party service provider. |
(b) | Hardware Issue. In the event that Hostway does not resolve a Hardware Issue within the Maximum Resolution Time described above, Hostway shall issue a Day Credit to Customer for every [***] from the time of Hostway’s Initial Response that the affected Managed Server(s) are not Operational until the time that the Hardware Issue is resolved subject to the limits described in Subsection (d) below. For clarity, down time (ie. where the Server is not Operational) experienced during scheduled maintenance is expressly excluded from eligibility for Day Credits. |
(c) | Network Issue. In the event of any Network Issue, Hostway shall issue a Day Credit to Customer for every [***] from the time of Hostway’s Initial Response that the Managed Servers are unable to transmit and receive data until the time that the Network Issue is resolved subject to the limits described in Subsection (d) below. For clarity, down time experienced during scheduled maintenance is expressly excluded from eligibility for Day Credits. Customer warrants that it understands and agrees that Hostway is not responsible in any way for any connectivity issues arising from outside of Hostway’s network, and that a failed ping-test from any third party service provider is not conclusive of a Network Issue as defined under this Section C, Paragraph 2.4 or in the SLA. Customer may report a failed ping-test to Hostway pursuant to the support procedures described above, but if Hostway’s independent investigation discovers that the failure resulted from connectivity issues outside of Hostway’s network, then any down time (ie. where the Server is not Operational) experienced by Customer as a result of such connectivity issue will not be eligible for Day Credits. Nothing in the above shall release Hostway from its undertaking to act upon its disaster recovery plans as presented to Customer. |
(d) | Limitation on Day Credits. In the event of a Hardware Issue or Network Issue, Hostway shall issue a Day Credit in accordance with the calculation described above up to a maximum value of $[***] in a particular calendar month (“Maximum Value”). Customer agrees that this limit represents the total combined value of Day Credits that are available to Customer for both Hardware Issues and Network Issues experienced in that particular month. Hostway and Customer agree that in the event that the total fees paid by Customer to Hostway in a particular calendar month exceed $[***], then the Maximum Value shall increase to an amount to be agreed upon by the Parties. Any Day Credits issued pursuant to this Paragraph 2.4 shall be posted to Customer’s account and applied against Customer’s next invoice(s). |
2.5 | Emergency Maintenance. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in the SLA, emergency maintenance shall not be excluded from the calculation of outages or from the times that the Customer's Server is not Operational. |
2.6 | Scheduled Maintenance. Hostway shall provide Customer with a minimum of seven (7) days’ prior written notice of any scheduled maintenance such that the scheduled maintenance shall be performed with Customer’s consent (including with respect to the time and duration of the scheduled maintenance), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Customer agrees that down time resulting from scheduled maintenance shall not be eligible for Day Credits. |
2.7 | Network/Hardware Resources. Hostway shall provide Customer at all times with network and hardware resources at the service levels described in Exhibit A to this Agreement. |
3. | Modifications to the Services |
Hostway reserves the right as described in the TOU to modify the Services, and/or any software, application, program, data, hardware, equipment, or portions or components thereof, used to provide the Services at its sole discretion, provided that such modification shall maintain the service level of the Services as described in the relevant Order Form. Notwithstanding any term of the TOU to the contrary, Hostway shall notify Customer at least one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days prior to the date that any material modification to the Services shall come into effect as against Customer, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing between the Parties. In the event that Customer does not agree with the modification to the Services, Customer may terminate this Agreement in its entirety upon thirty (30) days’ notice (provided however that during the one hundred and eighty (180)day notice period the modifications to the Services will not apply to Customer). If Customer does not provide Hostway with a notice of termination within the one hundred and eighty (180) day notice period as provided herein, then Customer will be deemed to have agreed to the modifications.

Section D: Additional Terms
1. | Limitations on Services |
Each Party represents and warrants that it is permitted and entitled to carry traffic or otherwise perform its obligations hereunder, and that doing so shall not conflict with any condition imposed upon it by an agreement between that Party and any third party with whom that Party connects.
2. | Limitation of Liability |
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event, and under no theory of law or equity, will either Party (including, without limitation, its executives, directors, officers, attorneys, managers, employees, consultants, contractors, agents, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, third-party providers, merchants, licensors, or the like) be liable for any consequential, special, incidental, punitive or indirect damages of any kind arising out of any use of, or any inability to use, any Hostway services even if such Party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In addition, Hostway expressly disclaims any and all liability for loss of domain names, any business or personal loss including data loss, revenues decrease, expenses increase, costs of substitute products and/or Hostway services. All claims and causes of actions arising in connection with Hostway or Hostway's services are permanently barred unless the claim or cause of action is commenced within [***] after Customer became aware of or should reasonably have become aware of the basis of the claim, regardless of any statutory limitation period allowing for a longer period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the TOU, each Party's maximum liability under this Agreement for all damages, losses, costs and causes of actions from any and all claims (whether in contract, tort, including negligence, quasi-contract, statutory or otherwise) shall not exceed the actual dollar amount paid by Customer for the Services which gave rise to such damages, losses and causes of actions during [***] period prior to the date the damage or loss occurred or the cause of action arose. However, the Parties agree that this limitation of liability shall not apply to a Party’s obligations under Paragraph 3: Indemnification below. The terms of this Paragraph shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
3. | Indemnification |
3.1 | By Customer. Customer agrees to protect, defend, hold harmless, and indemnify Hostway, any third party entity related to Hostway (including, without limitation, third party vendors), and Hostway's its directors, officers, managers, employees, parent companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, judgments, damages, third party claims, or causes of actions, including, without limitation, any and all legal fees and expenses, arising out of or resulting in any way from the Customer's use of the Services. |
3.2 | By Hostway. Hostway agrees to protect, defend, hold harmless, and indemnify Customer, including its directors, officers, managers, and employees, from and against any claim, action, penalty, cost or expense (including reasonable legal attorneys’ fees) arising from a third-party claim of intellectual property infringement against the Customer as a direct result of the Services as such Services are provided by Hostway to Customer. For clarity, Hostway’s indemnification obligations under this Paragraph shall not apply in the event that the alleged infringement was caused by Customer’s modification of the Services or Customer’s combination of the Services with any other product, services, or support materials, and such claim or action would not have arisen but for that modification or combination, or in the event that the alleged infringement was caused by any data uploaded to the Services by Customer or its end-users. |
3.3 | Indemnification Procedure. Upon becoming aware of any circumstance or legal action subject to indemnification under this Agreement (“Claim”), the indemnified party shall give prompt written notice of the Claim to the indemnifying party no later than fifteen (15) business days before the date that the response to the Claim is due; provided, however, that failure to give such notice will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder. The indemnifying party shall, at its option, settle or defend the Claim at its sole expense and with its counsel, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. The indemnified party will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the indemnifying party and its legal representatives in the investigation, trial, and defense of the Claim and any appeal; provided, however, that the indemnified party may, at its own expense and with written notice to the indemnifying party, participate, through its own legal representatives or otherwise, in the investigation, trial, and defense of the Claim and any subsequent appeal. The indemnifying party shall not enter into any settlement of the Claim that admits fault or that involves a remedy or obligation other than payment of money by the indemnifying party without the express written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnified party shall not admit fault in any Claim and/or make any payments with respect to such Claim without the prior written consent of indemnifying party. |
4. | Disclaimer |
Except as provided in this Agreement, the Services are provided on an as is, as available basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose. Hostway expressly disclaims any representation or warranty that the Services will be error-free, secure or uninterrupted. No oral advice or written information given by Hostway, its employees, licensors or the like, will create a warranty; nor may Customer rely on any such information or advice. Hostway and its partners and suppliers will not be liable for any cost or damage arising either directly or indirectly from any transaction or use of the Services between Customer and any end-user or other third party.
5. | Limited Warranties |
Hostway warrants that all Services shall be provided: (i) by competent, appropriately qualified and skilled personnel, in a timely, professional, workperson-like manner; (ii) in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations; (iii) in accordance with industry standards; and (iv) in accordance with the service levels set forth in this Agreement and the SLA. Customer agrees to use all Services and any information obtained through or from Hostway, at Customer’s own risk. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Hostway exercises no control over, and accepts no responsibility for, the content of the information passing through Hostway's host computers, network hubs and points of presence or the Internet. Hostway does not make any warranties as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services or as to the accuracy, reliability or content of any information, services or merchandise contained in or provided through the Services.

ADDENDUM 1
This Addendum is in addition to, and incorporated as part of, the Managed Server Agreement dated September 1, 2013 (“Agreement”) by and between Hostway of 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 and Xxx.xxx of 00 Xxxx, 00 Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (“Wix”). All terms in this Addendum beginning with capital letters, and/or all undefined terms, shall take on the same definition as in the Agreement or in Hostway’s Terms of Use (available online at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx/xxxxx_xx_xxx.xxxx) (“TOU”) as applicable.
Hostway and Wix hereby agree to the following terms and conditions:
1. | Discount Structure. Effective as of March 1, 2013, Hostway agrees to apply the following rates of discount to the monthly fee for each server provisioned to Wix’s account: |
Server Online Date |
Discount | |||
0 Years |
[*** | ] | ||
1 Year |
[*** | ] | ||
2 Years |
[*** | ] | ||
3 Years |
[*** | ] |
The discount structure described above applies to current, active servers as well as any new servers that may be provisioned following the effective date of this Addendum. For the purposes of this discount structure, the “Server Online Date” shall mean the age of a server calculated from the date on which that particular server was provisioned to Wix, and it does not reflect the physical age of the server. Hostway shall review Wix’s account on a biannual basis on January 1 and July 1 (each a “Review Date”) to determine the ages of the servers provisioned to Wix. If a server has passed its anniversary date by the Review Date, then Hostway shall adjust that server’s monthly fee to reflect the relevant discount described above. The discounts determined hereunder shall be applied from the following month’s invoice.
2. | No Other Amendments. Except as provided herein this Addendum, all the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the TOU, and all Order Forms shall remain in full force and effect. In the event of any conflict between this Amendment and the Order Form or the TOU, this Amendment shall supersede and control in all respects. |
3. | Complete Agreement. This Addendum, the Agreement, the TOU, and all the Order Form currently in effect shall together constitute the complete agreement between Hostway and Customer relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other understandings, representations, warranties, and agreements relating hereto, whether verbal, written, or otherwise. |
The parties have caused this Addendum to be duly executed by their authorized representatives. This Addendum is effective as of the date of the last signature below.
