Neither party will be liable for a delay or failure to perform this Agreement, due to and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from a Force Majeure Event. However, this Section does not excuse a party’s delay or failure to perform because of a change in economic conditions or an increase in that party’s costs to perform. Additionally, this Section does not excuse either party’s obligation to take reasonable steps to follow its normal disaster recovery or business continuity procedures or either party’s payment obligations (unless that is prevented by a Force Majeure Event).

      The affected party must notify the other party in writing within ten (10) business days of the Force Majeure Event's occurrence, providing details of the event and its anticipated impact on performance.

    15. No Joint and Several Liability. Only We are responsible and liable for Our obligations to You under this Agreement, and nothing in this Agreement should be interpreted to create joint or joint and several liability between Us and Our Affiliates for any of Our obligations to You or Your Affiliates.

Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any Order Form to any third party other than its affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that a party that makes any such disclosure will remain responsible for such affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this "Confidentiality" section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, We may disclose the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Order Form under terms of confidentiality materially as protective as set forth herein: (a) to a subcontractor or Third Party Application provider to the extent necessary to perform Our obligations to You under this Agreement, or (b) in connection with a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, reorganization, sale of some or all of Our assets, financing, sale of all or a portion of Our business, a similar transaction or proceeding, or steps in contemplation of such activities.

If the Receiving Party is compelled by applicable law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information.

  12. TERM AND TERMINATION
    1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and continues until all Services under an Order Form have expired or have been terminated. Termination of one or more of the Services does not automatically terminate the entire Agreement unless all Services have expired or been terminated. To the extent applicable to You, You hereby waive any right to unilaterally resiliate the contract pursuant to the Civil Code of Québec and hereby agree that You shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement solely in accordance with the terms hereof.
    2. Term of Cloud Services. The term of each Cloud Service subscription shall be as specified in the applicable Order Form and may be terminated as set forth in the Order Form. Except as otherwise specified in an Order Form, Cloud Service subscriptions will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis unless either party gives the other notice of non-renewal at least 30 (thirty) days before the end of the relevant subscription term. Unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, all month-to-month renewals will be at Our applicable list price in effect at the time of the renewal. Upon the renewal of any Cloud Service and unless otherwise agreed, the term for which any Equipment associated with that Cloud Service are provided to You shall automatically renew for an additional period corresponding to the renewed Cloud Service subscription term.
    3. Termination. A party may terminate this Agreement: (i) upon 30 (thirty) days written notice to the other party of a material breach of this Agreement by such other party if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, (ii) if the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iii) upon upon 30 (thirty) days written notice to the other party for any reason or no reason whatsoever.

    5. Your Data Portability and Deletion. Upon request by You made within 30 days after the effective date of termination or expiration of this Agreement, We will make Your Data available to You for export or download by secure file transfer in a format reasonably requested by You, and, at a minimum, in a format that is commercially useable apart from the Cloud Services. After such 30-day period, We will have no obligation to maintain or provide any Your Data. Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, and subject to applicable law, We shall delete and procure the deletion of all copies of Your Data Processed by Us or Our Sub-Processors (as defined in the Data Processing Agreement) provided, however, that We will not be required to remove copies of Your Data from Our backup media and servers until such time as the backup copies are scheduled to be deleted, provided further that in all cases We will continue to protect Your Data in accordance with this Agreement. The foregoing deletion obligation will be subject to any retention obligations imposed on Us by applicable law.
    6. Transition Period before Final Termination. Upon any termination of the Agreement, We shall, upon Your request, continue to provide the Services to You pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for a transitional period of up to three (3) months (the "Transition Period"), unless the parties agree to a longer period. Access to the Services during the Transition Period will be subject to the fees set out in the applicable Order Form, prorated on a monthly basis and payable in advance, based on the annual fees for the Services during the calendar period of the Transition Period if the Order Form has fees for such calendar period. During the Transition Period, We will provide cooperation and assistance as You may reasonably request to support an orderly transition to another provider of similar software or services. Such cooperation and assistance will be limited to consulting regarding Our Cloud Services and will be subject to a fee based on Our then-current rates for consulting services and such services will be set out in a statement of work agreed between the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of termination of this Agreement by Us due to a breach by You, We may withhold the provision of Transition Services and condition further performance upon (i) payment of undisputed fees then owed, (ii) prepayment of fees for further services, and (iii) receipt by Us of an officer’s certificate from You certifying ongoing compliance with the terms of this Agreement during the Transition Period.

Any purported assignment in violation of this section is void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
    8. Relationship of the Parties; Third Party Beneficiaries. The parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary or employment relationship between the parties. There are no third-party beneficiaries under this Agreement.

The time for performance will be extended for a period equal to the duration of the conditions preventing performance. Any amounts payable under this Agreement shall be equitably adjusted such that You are not required to pay any amounts for Services that You are not receiving.
    10. Subcontracting. We may subcontract parts of the Services to third parties.

We shall ensure that each subcontractor complies, and that each subcontract includes provisions that require compliance by the applicable subcontractor with, the Our obligations under this Agreement. We shall not disclose to any subcontractor any of Your Confidential Information unless and until such Subcontractor has executed a nondisclosure agreement that is no less protective of Your rights than are the confidentiality provisions set forth in this Agreement.
    11. Anti-Corruption. You agree that You have not received or been offered any illegal or improper bribe, kickback, payment, gift, or thing of value from any of Our employees or agents in connection with this Agreement.

    13. Severability. If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the other provisions of the Agreement.
    14. No Waiver. A waiver of any breach of the Agreement is not deemed a waiver of any other breach. No waiver under the Agreement will be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the party being deemed to have granted the waiver.
    15. No Joint and Several Liability. Only We are responsible and liable for Our obligations to You under this Agreement, and nothing in this Agreement should be interpreted to create joint or joint and several liability (or in the province of Québec, any solidarity) between Us and Our Affiliates for any of Our obligations to You or Your Affiliates.

    1. Informations confidentielles. « Informations confidentielles » désigne toutes les informations divulguées par une partie (« Partie divulgatrice ») à l’autre partie (« Partie réceptrice »), que ce soit oralement ou par écrit, qui sont désignées comme confidentielles ou qui devraient raisonnablement être considérées comme confidentielles étant donné la nature des informations et les circonstances de leur divulgation. Vos Informations confidentielles comprennent Vos Données et toutes les Données personnelles qu’elles contiennent; Nos Informations confidentielles comprennent les Services et le Contenu; et les Informations confidentielles de chaque partie comprennent les conditions de la présente Entente et tous les Bons de Commande (y compris les prix), ainsi que les plans commerciaux et marketing, la technologie et les informations techniques, les plans et conceptions de produits, et les processus commerciaux divulgués par ladite partie. Toutefois, les Informations confidentielles n’incluent pas les informations qui (i) sont ou deviennent généralement connues du public sans violation d’une quelconque obligation due à la Partie divulgatrice, (ii) étaient connues de la Partie réceptrice avant leur divulgation par la Partie divulgatrice sans violation d’une quelconque obligation due à la Partie divulgatrice, (iii) sont reçues d’un tiers sans violation d’une quelconque obligation due à la Partie divulgatrice, ou (iv) ont été développées indépendamment par la Partie réceptrice; à condition qu’aucune des exclusions précédentes ne s’applique à Vos Données, y compris, sans s’y limiter, aux Données personnelles.

Aucune des parties ne divulguera les termes de la présente Entente ou d’un Bon de commande à un tiers autre que ses sociétés affiliées, ses conseillers juridiques et ses comptables sans le consentement écrit préalable de l’autre partie, étant entendu qu’une partie qui procède à une telle divulgation restera responsable du respect par cette société affiliée, ce conseiller juridique ou ce comptable du présent article « Confidentialité ».

    1. Durée de l’Entente. La présente Entente prend effet à la date d’entrée en vigueur et se poursuit jusqu’à ce que tous les Services prévus par un Bon de commande aient expiré ou aient été résiliés. La résiliation d’un ou de plusieurs Services ne met pas automatiquement fin à l’ensemble de l’Entente, sauf si tous les Services ont expiré ou ont été résiliés.

Sauf indication contraire dans un Bon de commande, tous les renouvellements d’un mois à l’autre se feront à Notre prix courant applicable en vigueur au moment du renouvellement.

Si vous résiliez la présente Entente conformément à l’Article 12.3 Nous Vous rembourserons tous les frais payés d’avance couvrant le reste de la durée de tous les Bons de commande après la date effective de la résiliation. Si la présente Entente est résiliée par Nous conformément à l’Article 12.3 Vous paierez tous les frais impayés couvrant le reste de la durée de tous les Bons de commande. En aucun cas la résiliation ne Vous libère de Votre obligation de payer tout frais payable à Nous pour la période avant la date effective de la résiliation.
    5. Votre Portabilité et suppression des données. Sur demande de Votre part formulée dans les 30 jours suivant la date d’effet de la résiliation ou de l’expiration de la présente Entente, Nous mettrons Vos Données à votre disposition pour exportation ou téléchargement par transfert de fichier sécurisé dans un format raisonnablement demandé par Vous et, au minimum, dans un format commercialement utilisable en dehors des Services infonuagiques. Après cette période de 30 jours, nous n’aurons aucune obligation de maintenir ou de fournir Vos données. À la résiliation ou à l’expiration de l’Entente, et sous réserve de la loi applicable, Nous supprimerons et ferons supprimer toutes les copies de Vos Données traitées par Nous ou par Nos Sous-Traitants (tels que définis dans le Contrat de traitement des données), à condition, toutefois, que Nous ne soyons pas tenus de supprimer les copies de Vos Données de Nos supports et serveurs de sauvegarde jusqu’au moment où il est prévu de supprimer les copies de sauvegarde, à condition également que, dans tous les cas, Nous continuions à protéger Vos Données conformément à la présente Entente. L’obligation de suppression qui précède sera soumise à toute obligation de conservation qui Nous est imposée par la loi applicable.
    6. Période de Transition avant la résiliation définitive.

L’accès aux Services pendant la Période de transition sera soumis aux frais énoncés dans le Bon de commande applicable, calculés au prorata sur une base mensuelle et payables à l’avance, sur la base des frais annuels pour les Services pendant l’année civile de la Période de transition si le Bon de commande comporte des frais pour cette période calendaire. Au cours de la Période de transition, Nous Vous fournirons la coopération et l’assistance que vous pouvez raisonnablement demander pour soutenir une transition ordonnée vers un autre fournisseur de logiciels ou de services similaires. Cette coopération et cette assistance seront limitées à la consultation concernant Nos Services infonuagiques et feront l’objet d’une rémunération basée sur Nos tarifs alors en vigueur pour les services de consultation et ces services seront définis dans un cahier des charges convenu entre les parties. Nonobstant ce qui précède, en cas de résiliation de la présente Entente par Nous en raison d’un manquement de Votre part, Nous pouvons suspendre la fourniture des Services de transition et subordonner la poursuite de l’exécution (i) au paiement des frais non contestés alors dus, (ii) au paiement anticipé de frais pour d’autres services et (iii) à la réception par Nous d’une attestation de Votre part certifiant le respect continu des conditions de la présente Entente pendant la Période de transition.

    6. Lieu; renonciation à un procès devant jury; honoraires.

    7. Cession. Aucune des parties ne peut céder ses droits ou obligations en vertu des présentes, que ce soit par effet de la loi ou autrement, sans le consentement écrit préalable de l’autre partie (qui ne doit pas être refusé de manière déraisonnable), sauf que nous pouvons céder la présente Entente (ensemble avec tous les Bons de commande) sans votre consentement dans le cadre d’une fusion, d’une acquisition, d’une réorganisation d’entreprise ou de la vente de la totalité ou de la quasi-totalité de Nos actifs.Toute cession prétendue en violation du présent article est nulle.

    9. Cas de force Majeure.

    5. Suspension of Professional Services. If any amount You owe Us under this Agreement is 30 days or more overdue, We may, without limiting Our other rights and remedies, suspend Our performance of Professional Services until such amounts are paid in full and/or terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.2.
    6. No Offset. All amounts that You owe to Us under this Agreement must be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction, or withholding.
    7. Taxes. Our fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, "Taxes"). You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Your purchases hereunder. If We have the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which You are responsible under this section, We will invoice You and You will pay that amount, unless You provide Us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, We are solely responsible for taxes assessable against Us based on Our income, property and employees.
  6. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND LICENSES

Each party retains all right, title and interest in its respective intellectual property and We retain all ownership rights in the Contract Property.
  7. CONFIDENTIALITY
    1. Definition of Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" means all information disclosed by a party ("Disclosing Party") to the other party ("Receiving Party"), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Confidential Information of each party includes the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all SOWs or Order Forms (including pricing), as well as business and marketing plans, strategies, data, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, Confidential Information does not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (iii) is received from a third party without knowledge of any breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party.
    2. Protection of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (i) not use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement, and (ii) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who are subject to confidentiality obligations not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those herein. Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any SOW or Order Form to any third party other than its Affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that a party that makes any such disclosure to its Affiliate, legal counsel or accountants will remain responsible for such Affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this "Confidentiality" section.
    3. Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party's cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information.
  8. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND DISCLAIMERS
    1. Representations. Each party represents that it has validly entered into this Agreement and has the legal power to do so.
    2. Warranty. We warrant that the Professional Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner in accordance with generally accepted industry standards. For any breach of the above warranty, Your exclusive remedy and Our entire liability will be the re-performance of the applicable Professional Services.

    3. Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, AND EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
  9. INDEMNIFICATION
    1. Our Indemnity. We will defend You against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding ("Claim") made or brought against You by a third party (i) arising out of death, personal injury or damage to tangible property to the extent caused by Our personnel in their performance of the Professional Services, and (ii) alleging that any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data or material furnished by Us hereunder ("Material") infringes or misappropriates such third party's intellectual property rights, and will indemnify You and will indemnify You from any damages, including actual and statutory damages, fines, and penalties, reasonable attorney fees and costs finally awarded against You as a result of, or for amounts paid by You under a settlement approved by Us in writing of, a Claim provided You (x) promptly give Us written notice of the Claim , (y) give Us sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (except that We may not settle any Claim unless it unconditionally releases You of all liability), and (z) give Us all reasonable assistance, at Our expense. We will have no liability for any such Claim described in subsection (ii) above to the extent that (1) it arises from specifications or other Material provided by You, or (2) such claim is based on modifications to the Material by anyone other than Us. In the event that some or all of the Material is held or is reasonably believed by Us to infringe or misappropriate, We may, in Our discretion and at no cost to You, (A) modify or replace the Material so it is no longer claimed to infringe or misappropriate, (B) obtain a license for Your continued use of the Material in accordance with this Agreement, or (C) require return of the affected Material and all rights thereto from You. If We exercise option (C), either party may terminate the relevant SOW or Professional Services purchased under an Order Form upon 10 days’ written notice given within 30 days after Our exercise of such option, subject to Section 11.3 below. The above defense and indemnification obligations do not apply to the extent a Claim arises from Your breach of this Agreement or the applicable SOW or Order Form.

THE FOREGOING LIMITATION WILL APPLY WHETHER AN ACTION IS IN CONTRACT OR TORT AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, BUT WILL NOT LIMIT YOUR OR YOUR AFFILIATES’ PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 5.
    2. Exclusion of Consequential and Related Damages. IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES HAVE ANY LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, GOODWILL, OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, COVER, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER AN ACTION IS IN CONTRACT OR TORT, AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF A PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR IF A PARTY’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’ REMEDY OTHERWISE FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMER WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW.

If You terminate an SOW or Order Form under Section 11.2(i) and You have pre-paid any fees for Professional Services not yet received, We will refund such pre-paid fees. If We terminate an SOW or Order Form for cause, any pre-paid fees for Professional Services charged on a fixed-fee basis are non-refundable, unless expressly stated otherwise in an SOW or Order Form.
    4. Surviving Provisions. Sections 5, 6.3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Additionally, this Section does not excuse either party’s obligation to take reasonable steps to follow its normal disaster recovery or business continuity procedures or either party’s payment obligations (unless that is prevented by a Force Majeure Event).

      The affected party must notify the other party in writing within ten (10) business days of the Force Majeure Event's occurrence, providing details of the event and its anticipated impact on performance.

Tekion Production Support and Service Level Availability Policy

Our Software as a Service ("Cloud Service") is based on a multi-tenanted operating model that applies common, consistent management practices for all customers using the service. This common operating model allows Us to provide the high level of service reflected in our business agreements. This document communicates Our Production Support and Service Level Availability Policy ("SLA") with Our customers. Capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meaning as in the Tekion Master Subscription Agreement ("Agreement").

  1. Availability Commitment. We shall make the Cloud Services for Critical Business Functions Available, as measured over the course of each calendar month, and calculated based on twenty-four (24) hours per day and seven (7) days per week, during the term of the Agreement (each such calendar month, a "Service Period") at least 99.9% of such Service Period, excluding only the time the Cloud Services for Critical Business Functions are not Available solely as a result of one or more Exceptions (the "Availability Requirement").

    "Available" means the Cloud Services for Critical Business Functions are available and operable for access and use by You and Your Users over the Internet in material conformity with the User Documentation during Business Hours and shall be calculated as follows.

    (Actual Uptime for Critical Business Functions ÷ (Scheduled Uptime for Critical Business Functions – Total Minutes in Service Period Cloud Services for Critical Business Functions are not Available Due to an Exception)) x 100 = Percentage Uptime.

    All times will be measured only during Business Hours.

    "Availability" has a correlative meaning. Cloud Services for Critical Business Functions will be deemed Available unless they are: (a) reported by You as being unavailable via a support request; or (b) detected by Us as being unavailable during Business Hours.

    For the purposes of this Agreement: (i) a "Critical Business Function" means a function listed in EXHIBIT I with respect to which a performance or availability issue is qualified by Us as a Severity Level 1 issue in accordance with EXHIBIT I.; and (ii) "Business Hours" means 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. local time at the location of Your dealership.

  2. Exceptions. No period of Cloud Service degradation or inoperability will be included in calculating Availability to the extent that such downtime or degradation is due to any of the following ("Exceptions"):
    1. Planned Maintenance - Currently, Planned Maintenance is four (4) hours for weekly maintenance, four (4) hours for monthly maintenance, five (5) hours for quarterly maintenance. Our current weekly maintenance begins at 1:00 am (Eastern) on Monday; monthly maintenance begins at 1:00 am (Eastern) on Monday; and quarterly maintenance begins at 1:00 am (Eastern) on Monday. For avoidance of doubt, weekly, monthly and quarterly Planned Maintenance will be performed concurrently, so that the aggregate Planned Maintenance period during the days on which the weekly, monthly and quarterly Planned Maintenance coincide will not exceed five (5) hours. All times are subject to change upon thirty (30) days’ notice from Us and any such change shall not lengthen the duration of the associated maintenance window. Any such change shall not lengthen the duration of the associated maintenance window and shall be planned to cause the least disruption to Your business.
    2. Your or Your Users’ use of the Cloud Services in violation of or inconsistent with the applicable User Documentation, failure to adhere to any required configurations, use supported platforms, follow any policies for acceptable use, or use of a Cloud Service in a manner inconsistent with the features and functionalities of the Cloud Service (for example, attempts to perform operations that are not supported);
    3. Failures of Your or Your Users’ Internet connectivity;
    4. Internet or other network traffic problems other than problems arising in or from networks actually or required to be provided or controlled by Us or one or more of Our suppliers or subcontractors;
    5. Your or any of its Your Users’ failure to meet any minimum hardware or software requirements prescribed by Us; or
    6. a Force Majeure event as described in the Agreement.
  3. Remedies for Service Availability Failures. If the actual Availability of the Cloud Services for Your Critical Business Functions is less than the Availability Requirement for any Service Period, such failure(s) shall constitute one or more Service Errors. Save and except as provided in this SLA and Agreement, termination of the Agreement will be Your sole and exclusive remedy for any performance or availability issues for any Cloud Service and You may not unilaterally offset any payments due from You under the Agreement for any performance or availability issues. "Service Error" means any failure of any Cloud Service to be Available or otherwise materially perform in accordance with this Agreement and the User Documentation.
  4. Support Requests and Support Service Level Requirements. We shall, in good faith, classify requests for Service Error corrections in accordance with the descriptions set forth in EXHIBIT I (each a "Support Request"). You may notify Us of Support Requests by e-mail, telephone or such other means as we may mutually agree. We shall Respond to and Resolve all Support Requests in accordance with the required times and other terms and conditions set forth in EXHIBIT I.
  5. Response and Resolution Time Service Levels. Our Response and Resolution times will be measured from the time We receive a Support Request until the respective time We have (i) Responded to, in the case of Response time, or (ii) Resolved such Support Request, in the case of Resolution time. "Resolve" (including "Resolved", "Resolution" and correlative capitalized terms) means that, as to any Service Error, We have provided You the corresponding Service Error correction and You have confirmed such correction and Your acceptance thereof. We shall respond to and Resolve all Service Errors within the following times set forth in EXHIBIT I based on the severity of the Service Error.

EXHIBIT I

Support Service Level Requirements

Severity Level 1

Definition: The Cloud Services are unavailable or degraded to a degree where the service is substantially unusable or a non-dealership issue prevents You from using the Cloud Services to execute Critical Business Functions.

For purposes of this Agreement, "Critical Business Functions" means the following only:

  • Selling a car;
  • Writing a repair order estimate;
  • Selling a part;
  • Providing vehicle service at the service lane;
  • Actions related to month-end close;
  • Scheduling an appointment.

Our Response Commitment: We will respond within thirty (30) minutes of receipt of case and shall remain accessible for troubleshooting from the time a Severity 1 issue is logged until such time as it is Resolved.

Resolution: We will work to resolve the problem until the Cloud Service is returned to normal operation. You will be notified of status changes.

Escalation: If the problem has not been resolved within one (1) hour, We will escalate the problem to Our appropriate internal team. The escalated problem will have higher priority than ongoing support, development or operations initiatives.

Your Response Commitment: You shall remain accessible for troubleshooting from the time a Severity 1 issue is logged until such time as it is resolved. If the issue is not resolvable solely due to Your availability, the downtime will cease to count towards "Availability."
