SAVVIS HOSTING/COLOCATION SERVICE SCHEDULE
1. Services. This Hosting/Colocation Service Schedule (“Service Schedule”) sets forth the terms generally applicable across all of the hosting and colocation services provided hereunder (“Services”), as well as terms applicable only to specific Services as noted herein.
2. [Intentionally Omitted]
3. Access/Equipment. If Customer or Customer’s employees, agents, contractors, or End Users access any SAVVIS data center or other SAVVIS facility (a “SAVVIS Premises”) on Customer’s behalf (“Authorized Representatives”) or if Customer provides its own equipment in connection with the Service, the following terms shall apply.
3.1 Customer shall designate its Authorized Representatives in writing. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable SSG or Service Order, Customer is responsible for selecting, supplying, installing and maintaining any equipment used in connection with the Service and not provided by SAVVIS (“Customer Equipment”) including any related applications, systems, or software. Customer, its Authorized Representatives and all Customer Equipment and any related materials used in connection with the Service shall comply with all applicable law and data center operating policies (including the “SAVVIS Customer Handbook and Information Guide” (“Customer Guide”)), a current copy of which is located on xxx.XXXXXXxxxxxxx.xxx and which SAVVIS may change from time to time.
3.2 If SAVVIS reasonably believes that Customer is not complying with Section 3.1, SAVVIS may audit such compliance. If the audit confirms Customer’s compliance with Section 3.1, SAVVIS shall bear the cost of the audit. If the audit determines Customer non-compliance, Customer shall (a) pay the cost of the audit, at SAVVIS’ then current T&M rates, and (b) remedy such non-compliance within 10 days of receiving the audit report, unless SAVVIS reasonable determines that earlier remedy is necessary. If Customer fails to remedy such non-compliance within such period, then, notwithstanding any other rights in the MSA, SAVVIS may immediately (i) suspend the Service and/or restrict Customer’s access to the SAVVIS Premises for so long as deemed reasonably necessary by SAVVIS; and/or (ii) if such non-compliance is of a material nature, terminate the affected Service and Related Service if such non-compliance is recurring despite notice of noncompliance. SAVVIS may likewise restrict access to the SAVVIS Premises in accordance with the terms of the Master Services Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer’s payment obligations on the Services, including the suspended Service, shall continue during any period of suspension.
SAVVIS shall resume the suspended Service as soon as reasonably practicable after Customer has cured the violation to SAVVIS’ reasonable satisfaction.
3.3 Subject to the rest of this Section, SAVVIS may enter the Customer Area and/or access Customer Equipment only to the extent necessary to provide a Service or otherwise enforce the Agreement. SAVVIS may temporarily store Customer Equipment pending its installation at a SAVVIS Premises (“Equipment Storage”). If Equipment Storage continues for more than 30 days for any delay not caused by SAVVIS, SAVVIS may return, at Customer’s expense, the Customer Equipment. The risk of loss or damage for any Customer Equipment during any Equipment Storage shall be upon Customer, unless the damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of SAVVIS. If any Authorized Representative or Customer Equipment presents any material risk of harm to SAVVIS, its employees, agents, contractors, or customers, or the SAVVIS Premises, Customer shall take prompt action to eliminate such risk and SAVVIS shall notify Customer if it has knowledge of this risk. If Customer fails to do so or if there is risk of material and imminent harm, SAVVIS may, without prior notice or liability to Customer, take appropriate action itself, including accessing the Customer Area.
3.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by SAVVIS, in its sole discretion, Customer shall only interconnect Customer Equipment to the network services of SAVVIS, SAVVIS equipment or facilities or third party services made available through SAVVIS. If the Service includes access to or the use of equipment or software provided by SAVVIS or its licensors (“SAVVIS Equipment”), Customer: (a) will not assert any ownership interest whatsoever in the SAVVIS Equipment; (b) will keep the SAVVIS Equipment free and clear from all liens, claims and encumbrances; and (c) shall use all SAVVIS Equipment in accordance with the Agreement.
4. Ancillary Network Services. This Section will apply only in those instances where Customer is also purchasing ancillary SAVVIS network services in connection with its Hosting/Colocation Services, such as dedicated Internet access ports, cross-connections, and/or local access (“Network Service”).

SAVVIS HOSTING/COLOCATION SERVICE SCHEDULE
4.1 Billing Commencement Date for Network Services.
4.1.1 This Subsection applies to “IIP” and “MIP” Network Services. If the Network Service involves the addition of a single Customer connection (“Connection”), the BCD will be the date when SAVVIS activates the Network Service on the WAN side for that Connection. If the Network Service involves the activation of multiple Connections, the BCD for all Connections in the applicable Service Order will be the earlier of the date when SAVVIS activates the Network Service on the WAN side of at least two Connections or the activation of the Connection designated on the applicable Service Order as the Business Critical Infrastructure (“BCI”) Connection. If the Network Service involves the activation of multiple Customer Sites plus Internet access, the BCD for all Connections in the applicable Service Order will be the earlier of the date the Internet access is provisioned to the Connection on which it will reside or the activation of the Connection designated on the applicable Service Order as the BCI Connection.
4.1.2 This Subsection applies to all Network Services other than IIP and MIP. SAVVIS will notify the Customer when the Network Service is installed and ready for Customer’s use and within 5 days thereafter, Customer may reject the Network Service by written notice to SAVVIS if it materially fails to operate in accordance with the applicable SLA. If Customer sends a notice of rejection, SAVVIS will confirm the operational status of the Network Service, resolve any issues as necessary, and re-notify Customer when the Network Service is ready for Customer’s use. If Customer fails to reject the Network Service within five (5) business days from SAVVIS’ notice, Customer will be deemed to have accepted the Network Service. The BCD for a Network Service will be the earlier of: (a) the date the Network Service is accepted (or deemed accepted) by Customer, or (b) the date on which Customer first makes commercial or “live” use of the Network Service.
4.2 Pre-delivery Cancellation Fee. If Customer terminates an ordered Network Service prior to its BCD, Customer will pay a pre-delivery cancellation fee equal to one month’s projected MRC, plus out-of-pocket costs incurred by SAVVIS or imposed on SAVVIS by any third party provider (e.g., early termination charges).
4.3 Local Access. If local access is ordered in connection with the Service, SAVVIS will order and administer such local access on Customer’s behalf from the local access provider of SAVVIS’ choice. SAVVIS reserves the right to change the local access provider in its sole and reasonable discretion. If Customer acquires its own local access for use with the Service, Customer is solely responsible for coordination of all such local access and for any costs (including early termination fees) associated with such local access. Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold SAVVIS and its affiliates harmless from any and all third party claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs, arising from or related to local access used by Customer in connection with Service.
