4.2.4 TOTAL SERVICE AVAILABILITY
HMS guarantees the Talk2m light and Talk2m pro Client a total service availability as listed in point
4.2.10. The Total Service Availability is, except for the Visualization service, a ratio expressed as a percentage, calculated every month based on computation formula based on the last 12 months activities. The Maximum Total Downtime/year is calculated by subtracting the total number of hours in a year by the Total service availability expressed in hours. It is mentioned in the Service Level Metrics table below.
4.2.5 SCHEDULED DOWNTIME
The time period during which the hosted service might be unavailable due to routine maintenance and upgrades. Scheduled downtime will not occur more than once a month.

4.2.7 UNSCHEDULED DOWNTIME
The time period during which the hosted services are unavailable for reasons not defined as Scheduled downtime and where the Client cannot access the hosted service.

9. Unavailability due to outdated firmware when a notification has been sent by HMS to the Client to update their device firmware.

Each month, HMS monitors the service levels according to the metrics. The Client agrees that this tool will be the sole basis for resolution of any dispute that may arise between the Client and HMS regarding the SLA.
The Availability is calculated based on the following formula:
A = (T – U) / T x 100
Where: A = Availability (percentage), T = Total time and U = Total Unscheduled Downtime. All variables are expressed in hours. This calculation will be calculated once a month, taking into consideration the last 12 months’ rolling window for each region. It will be provided upon client request.
