* The parties understand that the New Wave Capacity will be transported over the [*] on the Global Crossing Network until a [*] is implemented and activated, which completion is estimated to take place on or around the [*]. Upon completion of the [*], the capacity will be moved to [*] with no material diminution in, or interruption of, services. Global Crossing will work with Limelight in good faith to create a migration plan, prior to the migration of such services.

** See Attachment 1 for site addresses.

(2) Charges; Payment. Subject to the terms herein, Limelight will pay to Global Crossing a non-recurring charge in the amount of [*] as payment for the Prepaid Wave Capacity (the “Prepaid Wave Capacity Price”). The Prepaid Wave Capacity Price does not include taxes, government surcharges and/or regulatory fees. Any such taxes, government surcharges and/or regulatory fees will be invoiced in addition to the pre-payment amounts and invoiced separately and paid pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, but in no event later than [*] from the date of invoice as such date is set out in Section 3.7 of the Agreement.

The Pre-paid Wave Capacity Price shall be paid as follows: (a) Subject to the terms and obligations herein, Limelight will remit a non-refundable payment in the amount of [*] USD to Global Crossing, via Wire Transfer as specified below, wired by Limelight and received by Global Crossing no later than [*] (the “Initial Prepayment”). Limelight’s failure to remit the Initial Prepayment in accordance with this section will render this Amendment #23 null and void. (b) The remaining balance of [*] will be paid in installments, each via Wire Transfer and pursuant to the Payment Table (below) (the “Remaining Payments”).

The Initial Prepayment and the Remaining Payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds, as follows:

(c) For New Wave Capacity Ring 3 and New Wave Capacity Ring 4: the Term shall commence [*], and will continue for 48 months or until [*], whichever occurs first. Upon expiration of the Term, the service shall continue [*] (each a “Renewal Term”), at which time each segment will be billed at the [*], unless either party notifies the other in writing at least [*] prior to the end of the Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable of its intention to terminate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Installation turn up of any New Wave Capacity or Additional Wave ring is completed after the [*], then the Term for such ring will commence on the [*] of the [*].

(5) Installation and Acceptance of New Wave Capacity Rings. Global Crossing will install all segments for each New Wave Capacity and/or Additional Wave (if applicable) Ring as follows:

(a) Global Crossing shall install and provide Limelight written notice of installation of each New Wave Capacity Ring by the Ready for Service Date (“RFS Date”) below;

(b) Upon notice of installation, Limelight shall have [*] to test each such New Wave Capacity Ring, and, upon successful completion of testing, shall provide Global Crossing written acceptance. “Installation” for purpose of this Amendment #23 shall occur on the earlier of (i) the [*], (ii) Limelight’s [*] of the New Wave Capacity or Additional Wave (if applicable), Ring, or (iii) [*] from Limelight identifying outstanding issues in respect to the New Wave Capacity or Additional Wave(if applicable) installation. During the test period, the parties agree to work together in good faith to resolve any outstanding issues or service failures. The parties agree and understand that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(14) hereunder, any additional time required to implement measures taken to resolve outstanding issues as defined between the parties during the testing period shall not be deemed as a breach of Global Crossing’s Installation obligations hereunder, provided that any such issues are fully resolved within [*] of expiration of the testing period; and,

(c) during the installation process for each New Wave Capacity and Additional Wave (if applicable) Ring, each segment will be turned up individually, tested and accepted, and made available for use by Limelight prior to completion of the entire Ring.

The charges for such break-out will be (i) a non-recurring charge of [*], plus (ii) any actual documented expense Global Crossing incurs for the new drop point, not to exceed [*] for [*] sites only. Any charge hereunder shall be invoiced by Global Crossing and paid by Limelight pursuant to the payment terms set out in the Agreement.

(12) Expansion. Limelight may request an additional ring (additional [*] on the [*] routes only), however such additional ring (i) will be subject to availability, (ii) will have a purchase price of [*], (iii) will have a 48month term, and (iv) must be ordered, and prepaid by [*], and installed within [*] of order date.

(13) Global Crossing and Limelight will continue to work together in good faith to support preferred pricing models on a per-segment basis.

(14) Material Breach:

(a) For purposes of this Amendment #23, “Material Breach” includes but is not limited to either (i) Global Crossing’s [*] on or before the RFS Date as defined in Section 6 hereunder (“Type A Default”) or (ii) Global Crossing’s actions and/or omissions that [*] (other than any performance issues as defined on Section 10 “Service Level Agreements” hereunder) or [*] (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 5 of the Agreement) after the affected Ring or Rings have been fully activated (“Type B Default”).

(b) In the event of a Material Breach by Global Crossing with respect to a particular Ring or Rings, and its failure to cure within [*] of written notice by Limelight, Limelight will have the right, at its option, to the following remedies (or combination thereof):

i) in regard to a Type A Default: Any and all [*], and Limelight will receive a [*] which shall be equal to the amounts applicable to the affected Ring(s) defined in Attachment 2 hereunder,

ii) in regard to a Type B Default: (A) Any and all [*], and Limelight will receive a [*] which shall be equal to [*] of the value of the allocated [*] of the affected Ring(s) as defined in Attachment 3 hereunder and multiplied by the number of [*] remaining from the date of occurrence of the Material Breach event until the end of the applicable Service Term. Remaining [*] on the applicable Term shall be calculated by taking into account the effective [*] of the affected Ring(s); and (B) Global Crossing will accelerate the conversion of the [*] defined on Amendment 22 to US[*], applicable from the date of the Material Breach event, and/or

iii) in regard to any Material Breach (Type A and/or Type B): (A) Limelight may convert existing Services to [*] term, at the [*], terminable by Limelight upon [*] advance notice to Global Crossing, at which time Limelight will be relieved of any further obligations allocable or correlative to such terminated segment or Ring after the effective date of such termination, and (B) subject to Sections 22 and 7.2 of the Agreement, Limelight reserves, and may pursue, any and all remedies it may have in law or equity. If Limelight elects to utilize some or all of the [*] otherwise available to it under subsection (i) or (ii) above, then any damages to which Limelight may otherwise be entitled will be reduced by the amount of such credit utilized by Limelight.

(c) Upon the occurrence of a Material Breach event and subject to the application of the remedies set forth in subsection (b)(iii)(A) of this Section 14, it is understood that Global Crossing shall no longer be liable for the activation of the specific Ring(s) (or any of its segments, even if already activated) over which the Material Breach event is claimed and thus, Limelight’s use of any Ring(s) segment which may have been previously activated shall discontinue from the effective date of the notice of termination issued by Limelight under that subsection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, circuit availability issues affecting the New Wave Capacity and/or a specific Ring shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10 “Service Level Agreements” hereunder. Furthermore, it is understood that Limelight will not be obligated to accept the delivery of the remaining Rings nor will Global Crossing be obligated to deliver the remaining Rings.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2 of the Agreement, Global Crossing’s entire liability for all claims of whatever nature arising out of the occurrence of any Material Breach event shall not exceed an amount equal to US[*]. Except as otherwise stated herein, and subject to Sections 22 and 7.2 of the Agreement, in the event of a material breach by Limelight, and its failure to cure within [*] from written notice by Global Crossing, then Global Crossing, may bring an action for any and all remedies available to it, at law and/or equity; without any prejudice to any and all remedies Global Crossing may have pursuant to the Agreement. Limelight’s entire liability for all claims of whatever nature arising out of the occurrence of any material breach event shall not exceed an amount equal to US[*], net of any payments made by Limelight to Global Crossing under this Amendment.

(e) In addition to any and all remedies provided herein, the prevailing party in any action for breach, or to enforce the terms of this Amendment, shall be awarded reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees in enforcing such rights.

(15) Additional Wave. Limelight may order [*] Wave under either Option A, Option B, or Option C below. Limelight must notify Global Crossing of its choice and location, as applicable, no later than [*] prior to the requested install date but in no event later than [*], however if Limelight does not notify Global Crossing of its choice by [*], Limelight waives its rights to the Additional Wave as set out in Options A, B and C below.

Option  A: Global Crossing will provide to Limelight [*] Wave ([*]) for a 48-month term (the “Additional Wave”), which term will start upon Limelight’s acceptance of the Additional Wave, but in no event later than [*]. There will be [*] for the Additional Wave during the 48-month term, however local access, if applicable, will be invoiced separately [*]. Upon expiration of the 48-month term, the Additional Wave will continue [*] (the “Renewal Term”), at which time it will be billed at the [*], as defined above, plus local access charges, if applicable, unless either party notifies the other in writing at least [*] prior to the end of the Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable, of its intention to terminate. For this Additional Wave, Global Crossing will provide a diverse physical route to support redundancy. Customer will provide all switching equipment required to support desired diversity and automated switching, or.

Option  B: Global Crossing will provide to Limelight [*] Wave in one of the locations from the list below for a 48-month term (the “Additional Wave”), which term will start upon Limelight’s acceptance of the Additional Wave, but in no event later than [*].
