We shall use commercially reasonable endeavors to provide a Monthly Uptime Percentage of no less than 99.9% each calendar month in connection with your use of the Service (the “Service Guarantee”). If we fail to meet the Service Guarantee, subject to the terms and conditions of this SLA, you shall be entitled to claim a Service Credit rebate in accordance with Section 3 herein.

Once we receive your claim, we will review and evaluate your claim and may require your co-operation in conducting a joint investigation to ascertain whether the Service Guarantee has been breached and if so, the cause of the failure. We will make a good faith determination if a Service Credit is to be provided to you in our sole discretion and will inform you the result as soon as reasonably practicable.
