Lex Software Limited T/A Klyant – Service Level Agreement
PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY
1. UPTIME
Klyant intends to provide 99.9% uptime each calendar month, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week ("Service Hours"). Uptime is measured based on the monthly average of availability rounded down to the nearest minute. Uptime is calculated as follows:
(Service Hours – Downtime (as defined in section 2)) / Service Hours * 100%.
2. DOWNTIME
Downtime is the period of time during which the Subscribed Service is unavailable to the Customer. The Subscribed Service is unavailable when it is offline or not operational. Downtime includes urgent maintenance for which less than 24 hours' notice was provided to affected Customers and excludes Scheduled Maintenance, as defined in Section 3 of this SLA. It also excludes any downtime caused by communications, network, or hosting operators outside of Klyant’s control.
3. SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
Klyant will be required from time to time to perform maintenance to keep providing the Subscribed Service(s) ("Scheduled Maintenance") and will use commercially reasonable efforts to:
- Announce Scheduled Maintenance at least 5 calendar days in advance; and
- Limit interruptions from Scheduled Maintenance where possible.
4. ADDITIONAL SUBSCRIPTION DAYS
Should uptime fall below 99.9% in any calendar month, Klyant will pay damages in the form of additional subscription days ("Additional Subscription Days"), which are equal to the total number of days of the applicable month (the month in which uptime fell below 99.9%), calculated on an hourly basis as applicable, pro rata to the amount by which uptime fell below 99.9%. To apply for Additional Subscription Days under this SLA, the Customer must submit a written request to hello@klyant.com within 30 calendar days of the end of the applicable month with the subject "SLA Additional Subscription Days". The request must include the dates and times of the Downtime for which Additional Subscription Days are being requested.
Additional Subscription Days are the sole and exclusive remedy for Klyant's failure to meet the uptime. Each month, Additional Subscription Days are capped at the total number of days in the applicable month. The Customer cannot claim any Additional Subscription Days if there are outstanding invoices and all Additional Subscription Days expire upon termination or expiration of the Agreement.
5. RESPONSE TIME AND RESOLUTION
