COLOCATION FACILITIES AGREEMENT
This Colocation Facilities Agreement is made by and between Provider and the customer (or customer’s Affiliate(s) [as defined below] who enter into a Service Order with Provider) indicated in the signature blocks below (“Customer”). This Colocation Facilities Agreement is effective as of the date of Provider’s signature below (the “Effective Date”); provided that neither party shall be bound until both parties have signed.
1.Colocation Facilities.
1.1Definitions. “Agreement” means a collective reference to this Colocation Facilities Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the Rules and Regulations (the “Rules”). “Colocation Space” means a collective reference to the colocation space described on a Service Order together with associated power, cooling and other services to be provided by Provider pursuant to a Service Order (exclusive of Carrier Services). “Carrier Services” means a collective reference to internet, transport and other services provided by one or more third-party telecommunications carriers (each a “Carrier”) to Customer through Provider or procured directly by Customer. “Customer Equipment” means the computer equipment, software, hardware and other materials placed by or for Customer in the Colocation Space, other than Provider equipment. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meaning provided in the applicable Service Order. “Affiliate” means, any entity that Customer directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with such entity, provided that for assignment or sublicensing purposes an Affiliate may not be a competitor of Provider. For the purposes of this definition, “control” shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the equity securities or equity interests in such entity or the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity (whether through ownership of securities, partnership interests or other ownership interests, by contract, or otherwise). The term “Premises” shall be defined in the applicable Service Order.
1.2Service Orders. From time to time, the parties may execute Service Orders that reference this Agreement and this Agreement is hereby incorporated into such Service Orders. This Agreement shall govern over any inconsistent terms and conditions contained in a Service Order. For clarity, each Service Order is a separate and distinct agreement between Provider and Customer. Any Affiliate will be entitled to purchase services under this Agreement by entering into a Service Order with Provider, and any such Service Order shall be deemed to be a two party agreement between Provider and such Affiliate, provided however that such Affiliate is not a potential competitor of Provider. Any Affiliate executing a Service Order with Provider shall be deemed to be “Customer” solely for purposes of such Service Order.
1.3Commencement of License. The Colocation Space commencement date (the “Commencement Date”) shall be the earlier of: (i) the date Provider makes the Colocation Space available to Customer; or (ii) the date Customer places any Customer Equipment in the Colocation Space. The Commencement Date for Carrier Services shall be the date on which the applicable Carrier makes the Carrier Services available to Customer.
2.Colocation Space.
2.1License Grant. Starting on the applicable Commencement Date, Provider hereby grants Customer a limited, revocable license to install and operate, maintain and access, as well as transmit and receive to and from, the Customer Equipment within the Colocation Space and for no other purpose.
2.2Installation and Management. Customer will be solely responsible for the immediate removal from the Premises of all packaging materials (especially flammable materials) associated with the Customer Equipment and will maintain the Colocation Space in a clean, safe and orderly fashion.
2.3Location and Configuration. The Colocation Space is
located in the area as identified on the Service Order. The standard 48U cabinet height is 88.63 inches and the standard cabinet width is 30 inches wide. All non-standard height cabinets may require a mutually agreed customization fee for installation, which will be addressed in a Service Order. All non-standard width cabinets may require an increase in MRC due to the increased space allocation which shall be described in the applicable Service Order. Unless otherwise agreed upon in the applicable Service Order, no cabinets above 90 inches will be allowed. Provider shall dictate the Customer Equipment configuration within the Colocation Space and Customer shall obtain Provider’s prior written consent before making any changes.
2.4Access. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the security and access procedures set forth in the Rules or otherwise promulgated by Provider from time to time, Customer will have access to the Colocation Space 24-hours a day, 7-days a week. Customer is responsible for any and all actions of Customer’s representatives, agents and persons escorted by or on behalf of Customer (collectively, “Customer Representatives”). Provider may suspend access by any Customer Representative or other person to the Premises including the Colocation Space for security violations or in the event of an emergency.
2.5Removal of Customer Equipment; Deliveries. Customer will provide Provider with notice at least two (2) days before Customer desires to remove a significant piece of Customer Equipment from the Colocation Space so logistics may be arranged within the Premises. Customer will provide Provider’s designated dock master with notice at least two (2) days before Customer desires to receive a delivery to the Premises so that such delivery can be coordinated with any other deliveries expected to be received on the same day.
2.6Vacating the Colocation Space. In the event Customer continues its presence in the Colocation Space after the termination of the applicable Service Order or this Agreement, Customer agrees to be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement during such occupancy period and to pay for such space an amount equal to: (i) an agreed upon MRC for such hold over period; or (ii) if no MRC is agreed upon, [***] of the MRC due for the period immediately preceding termination of the Service Order or this Agreement. Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Provider from and against any and all claims, actions, proceedings or demands (each a “Claim”) and related Costs (defined below) arising from or related to Customer’s failure to timely vacate the Colocation Space due to a scheduled termination. Upon termination of this Agreement or any Service Order, Customer agrees to promptly release any Internet Protocol (IP) numbers, addresses or address blocks assigned to Customer by Provider in connection with the Service, if any, and will assist Provider with any steps necessary to change or remove any such IP addresses. Any requirement for restoration shall be subject to an allowance for reasonable wear and tear.
2.7Relocation of Customer Equipment. Provider shall not arbitrarily require Customer to relocate the Customer Equipment. However, upon prior notice of at least thirty (30) days, or in the event of an emergency, Provider may require Customer to relocate the Customer Equipment within the Premises; provided that the relocation site shall afford comparable square footage, Carrier Service, electrical and environmental conditions for and accessibility to the Customer Equipment. The reasonable direct costs of the relocation shall be borne by Provider unless the relocation is required to accommodate Customer’s requests.
2.8Cross-Connections/Carrier Services/Pathway Usage. Customer shall give Provider prior written notice of any new cross-connections Customer desires to have installed. Such cross-connections are subject to Provider’s processes and procedures, provided that Customer may continue to maintain any existing cross-connections Customer has in place as of the Commencement Date. Customer will notify the applicable Carrier and Provider when Customer desires to terminate or modify any cross-connections.
1 Customer Initials _BL_
Customer will be solely responsible for all payments due to the Carriers. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Carrier Services will be provided by one or more third-party Carriers that are not under the control of Provider. Customer understands that Provider does not own or control any of the Carrier Services and agrees that Provider is not responsible or liable for performance or non-performance of the Carriers. In addition, Provider may charge Customer for Customer’s use of pathways (as an additional component of the MRC) within the Premises and Colocation Space that are established after the Effective Date.
3.Fees and Billing.
3.1Recurring MRC. Customer agrees to pay the minimum Monthly Recurring Charges indicated on the Service Order and all other obligations (e.g., taxes, smart hands) agreed to in this Agreement (collectively, the “MRC”) in advance, on or before the service renewal date.
3.2Non-Recurring Charges. Non-Recurring Charges indicated on a Service Order (“NRC”) are due and payable upon execution of the Service Order by Provider. Provider will not have any obligation to perform under any Service Order unless and until Provider receives the entire NRC that is due and payable.
3.3Billing/Payment Terms. Provider shall invoice Customer for MRC in advance, and applicable NRC and utilization-based Carrier Services in arrears. At no time may Customer use power to the Colocation Space in excess of [***] of the allocated circuit capacity to Customer. If Customer uses in excess of such amount, Customer shall pay Provider an amount equal to the actual electrical costs during such month to provide power to the Colocation Space in excess of such [***] allocation, as measured by Provider at the remote power panels using branch circuit monitoring with the line of demarcation at the cabinet. At Provider’s sole election, if Customer consistently uses more than its allocated power, Provider may increase the allocated power to the Customer Space on a permanent basis and increase Customer’s MRC accordingly. Customer shall pay such invoice within thirty (30) actual days of the invoice date (“Due Date”). Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Provider, if any amounts payable by Customer are not paid by the Due Date, Customer shall owe Provider a late fee of [***] of the amount due, and any unpaid amount that is not reasonably disputed by Customer and is not received by the Due Date after notice to Customer and a ten-day (10) day cure period after such notice will be subject to an interest charge equal to one and [***] per month on the total past due balance (the “Default Interest Rate”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer may withhold payment of amounts disputed in good faith, except that Customer may only withhold disputed amounts of the MRC if Provider’s invoice for the MRC is more than a fixed baseline amount that may be specified in the applicable Service Order (“Disputed Amount”). Customer will notify Provider of the amount of any Disputed Amount and the reason for the dispute and will pay the undisputed amount of each invoice. If Provider rejects such Disputed Amount, Provider will so notify Customer stating the reasons for the rejection, and the parties shall then negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. If no resolution can be reached within thirty (30) days, Customer will pay the Disputed Amount after the final negotiation. If Provider determines that the Customer is entitled to adjustments then Provider will credit Customer’s invoice for such amount on the next appropriate billing cycle. This Section 3.3 governs Customer’s payment obligations and may not be modified or replaced with subsequent terms in Customer’s or a third party’s software, payment portal, statement of work, invoice or similar instrument. Provider will accommodate Customer’s request to use a third party payment system or payment facilitation software and Customer agrees to be responsible for any fees imposed by such third party payment system or payment facilitation software. Provider may require Customer upon signing this Agreement to pay the MRC for the first [***] in which such MRC is payable and any initial NRC for the Colocation Space.
3.4Bankruptcy/Insolvency. If Customer fails to make any payments hereunder, or if a petition is brought by or against Customer under any state or federal insolvency law, Provider may, in accordance with applicable law, modify the payment terms to secure Customer’s payment obligations before providing any services.
3.5Taxes. NRC and MRC are exclusive of applicable taxes (including, without limitation, sales, use, transfer, privilege, excise, consumption and other similar taxes), fees, duties, governmental assessments, impositions, levies and similar charges (including, without limitation, any and all of the foregoing relating to carbon and climate/environmental control), other than Provider’s income, estate, or gift taxes. Customer will be responsible for and will pay in full all such amounts (exclusive of income taxes payable by Provider), whether imposed on Provider or directly on Customer. All taxes will be levied on a pass-through basis without any mark-up. Provider agrees to cooperate with Customer to facilitate participation in any tax rebate or abatement program and agrees to pass through any incentives available to Provider’s Customers.
4.Additional Responsibilities.
4.1Customer Equipment. Customer has sole control and responsibility for installation, testing and operation of the Customer Equipment (including services not provided by Provider). In no event will the untimely installation or non-operation of Customer Equipment relieve Customer of its obligation to pay MRC.
4.2Customer’s End Users. Customer is solely responsible for providing its end users with customer service.
4.3Compliance with Law. Both Provider and Customer shall at all times fully comply with and faithfully carry out all laws, statutes, ordinances, regulations, promulgations and mandates of all duly constituted authorities applicable to the operations of their respective businesses, including, without limitation, those laws and regulations that govern export controls globally, and any failure to do so shall constitute a default under this Agreement if not cured within the cure period set forth in Section 5 in which event the affected portion of this Agreement may be immediately terminated by either party by written notice delivered prior to the effect of a cure. Both Provider and Customer shall at all times maintain in good standing and effect all necessary and proper business licenses and other licenses and permits relating to its business operations. Customer acknowledges that Provider exercises no control over the content of the information passing through the Customer’s telecommunications network and that it is Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure that the information Customer transmits and receives complies with all applicable laws and regulations. Customer shall cooperate with any investigation by any governmental authority or Provider (subject to confidentiality protections for each party and in no event will Provider access Customer’s network), and shall immediately rectify or substantially mitigate illegal use (immediate rectification or substantial mitigation may be effected where a safe-harbor is applicable and invoked); and any failure to do so will be a material breach of this Agreement.
5.Term and Termination.
1.1Term. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until the later of expiration of the last Service Order issued hereunder as set forth in this Section 5 or terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The Service Commitment Period for a Service Order starts on the Commencement Date. Service Orders shall remain in effect for the Service Commitment Period, unless terminated earlier as set forth in this Section 5. After conclusion of the Service Commitment Period, each Service Order shall automatically renew on a year-to-year basis unless a new Service Commitment Period is established and the MRC shall increase each year to be [***] more than it was in the previous year. Extension Options will be reflected in the applicable Service Order (“Extension Option”).
2 Customer Initials BL
1.2Conditions of Breach. A party is in breach of this Agreement if such party violates its obligations under this Agreement and such violation is not cured within thirty (30) days or longer period that may be mutually agreed upon and after written notice by the other party (excepting payment obligations that are breached if not paid on the Due Date specified in Section 3.3, but including the applicable cure notice and cure period).
1.3Certain Remedies for Breach. Subject to Customer’s right to cure (to the extent curable or mitigatable), if Customer is in breach of this Agreement beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Provider may, upon reasonable advance notice to the Customer, discontinue providing any or all of the services (including, without limitation, power), Colocation Space, Carrier Services and deny access to the Premises. Customer shall pay the actual and reasonable expenses Provider may incur in its collection efforts including any attorneys’ fees. Additionally, Provider reserves its rights in law and in equity, including the ability to collect the MRC for the balance of the Service Commitment Period in the manner set forth in Section 5.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Customer shall not be permitted to exercise any self-help or offset remedies, or to perform any of Provider’s obligations hereunder.
1.4Service Commitment Period. Subject to Section 5.2 and 5.3, Service Orders are non-cancellable during the Service Commitment Period. As a material inducement for Provider to enter into this Agreement and each Service Order, Customer acknowledges, agrees and covenants that upon Customer’s execution of each Service Order (i) Customer is responsible for full payment of the license for the entire Service Commitment Period regardless of the portion of the services actually consumed; and (ii) termination of the Service Order or this Agreement (other than for breach by Provider) or suspension of services as permitted in this Agreement shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay the full MRC for the duration of Service Commitment Period.
5.1Ecosystem Integrity. In the event of an emergency, to the extent necessary to protect the telecommunications/data communications network and network components owned, operated and controlled by Provider within the Premises (the “Provider Network”) or to remedy any Rules violations, Provider may temporarily restrict or suspend Customer’s rights under this Agreement, including access to the Colocation Space, related services and Carrier Services, without liability to Customer. Provider will use reasonable efforts to notify Customer prior to any such restriction or suspension and will notify Customer promptly when such restriction or suspension is no longer necessary. Suspension of Colocation Space and/or Carrier Services pursuant to this Section 5 shall not be a violation of this Agreement. For the purpose of this Section 5.5, the term “emergency” means a threat to person, property or serious threat to service(s).
5.2Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement: (i) Provider may immediately cease providing services; and (ii) unless otherwise explicitly defined herein or in the applicable Service Order, all MRC will become immediately due and payable. In the event Customer has not removed the Customer Equipment as of the termination date, Provider may remove the Customer Equipment from the Colocation Space and place the Customer Equipment in storage at Customer’s risk and expense and/or, after providing Customer with at least thirty (30) days’ notice, dispose of the Customer Equipment unless an extension is mutually agreed upon in writing between the parties.
6.Assignment/Colocation. Customer may not assign this Agreement, sublicense all of any portion of the Colocation Space, allow any party to collocate (which shall include the placement of any powered or passive equipment in the Colocation Space, including the racks or cabinets therein) in any portion of the Colocation Space or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or in the Colocation Space (collectively, a “Customer Transfer”), without the prior written consent of Provider, which consent may be
withheld in Provider’s sole and absolute discretion, and in any case, Customer may not engage in a Customer Transfer to a direct or indirect competitor of Provider. The sale of all or substantially all ownership rights in Customer shall also be deemed a Customer Transfer under this Agreement but in that situation Provider’s right to consent shall be at Provider’s reasonable discretion. Any attempted Customer Transfer in violation of this Section 6 will be null and void. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each party’s permitted successors and assigns. Provider may require any party to a Customer Transfer to execute documentation acceptable to Provider (in Provider’s sole and absolute discretion) in connection with any approved Customer Transfer, and in the case of an assignment, the related assumption agreement will provide for the transferee to assume all of Customer’s liabilities, duties and obligations under this Agreement. In any event, no Customer Transfer shall relieve or release Customer of its obligations, duties or liabilities, and Customer shall remain fully liable under this Agreement, jointly and severally with the transferee. Provider may, in its sole and absolute discretion, assign this Agreement to any third party without obtaining the consent of Customer or any other party. Customer shall attorn to Provider’s assignee upon any assignment of this Agreement and shall recognize such assignee as the licensor under this Agreement. No assignment or sale by Provider shall, in and of itself, result in a termination of this Agreement. In the event of any assignment by Provider, Provider shall automatically be released from all liability under this Agreement and Customer shall look solely to the assignee for the performance of Provider’s prior obligations under this Agreement and such assignee shall be deemed to have fully assumed and be liable for all obligations of this Agreement to be performed by Provider after the date of the assignment. There shall be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

7.1General Insurance. At all times Customer shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, (i) commercial general liability insurance of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence, (ii) workers’ compensation insurance at or greater than the minimum levels required by applicable law, (iii) “all risk” personal property insurance in an amount at least equal to the full replacement value of the Customer Equipment, and (iv) business loss and interruption insurance in an amount sufficient to compensate Customer and Customer’s end users for loss of the Colocation Space related services or the Carrier Services. Customer retains the risk of loss for, loss of (including loss of use), or damage to, the Customer Equipment and other personal property located in the Premises and for any service interruption. Provider’s insurance policies do not provide coverage for Customer’s personal property. Customer agrees that Customer shall not and shall cause the Customer Representatives to not pursue any Claims against Provider unless and until Customer or the Customer Representative, as applicable, first files a claim against Customer’s insurance policy and the applicable insurance provider(s) finally resolve such claims against Customer. Customer shall include Provider, Xxxxxxxx’s managing agent, and any mortgagee of the Premises as additional insureds on all insurance policies required under this Section 7.1, and such policies may not be cancelled without thirty (30) days’ prior notice to Provider. Customer shall provide policy endorsements to Provider upon request.

Customer shall ensure that each applicable policy required hereunder contains a waiver of subrogation provision for the benefit of Provider. In the event that Customer shall fail to promptly furnish any insurance coverage hereunder required to be procured by Customer, Provider, at its sole option, shall have the right after ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Customer to obtain the same and pay the premium therefor for a period not exceeding one (1) year in each instance, and the premium so paid by Provider plus interest thereon at

the Default Interest Rate shall be immediately due and payable by Customer to Provider as additional NRC.
7.2Casualty. In the event the Colocation Space is damaged by fire or other perils covered by Provider’s insurance, and Provider chooses to repair, reconstruct or restore the Colocation Space, Customer’s MRC shall be abated proportionately with the degree to which Customer’s use of the Colocation Space is impaired during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration. Under the circumstances described in the foregoing, should Provider decide not to repair, reconstruct or restore the Colocation Space, Customer shall be entitled to terminate and in the event Customer has prepaid fees, Customer shall receive a pro-rata refund of any pre-paid fees as of the effective date of such termination.

THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY DESPITE THE FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL NOT APPLY TO INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS, AN INTENTIONAL OR GROSSLY NEGLIGENT ACT BY A PARTY, ANY BREACH OF SECTION 11.3 “CONFIDENTIALITY”, OR BE INTERPRETED TO REDUCE COMPENSATION FOR THE PROVISION OF THE SERVICES WHICH IS OTHERWISE DUE TO PROVIDER.
8.3The parties shall attempt to resolve any disputes, claims or controversies under or related to this Agreement through good faith negotiations and shall escalate any such disputes to their respective senior level leadership.
