    In the event the functionality of the ATI Networks Back-Up service cannot be maintained by “ATI” or the manufacturer, “ATI” shall have the right to discontinue providing the service immediately and “ATI” shall credit Customer’s account for any pre-paid Monthly Service Fees attributable to the service, except where such lack of functionality is caused by the Customer or any end user gaining access to the service through the Customer’s facilities, equipment, or point of access. Customer shall not be relieved of its responsibility to continue to pay for ATI Networks Back-Up in the event ATI Networks Back-Up does not function properly as a result of Customer’s failure to install and configure the software, activate the service or install manufacturer-provided updates. CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES (1) THAT IT IS CUSTOMER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO CREATE AND RETAIN THE ATI Networks BACK-UP PASSWORD THAT IS NECESSARY FOR ACCESS TO ANY DATA STORED VIA THE ATI Networks BACK-UP SERVICE AND (2) THAT “ATI” HAS NO ACCESS TO AND DOES NOT KNOW NOR KEEP ANY RECORD OF THE PASSWORD CREATED BY CUSTOMER. FAILURE BY CUSTOMER TO RETAIN CUSTOMER’S ATI Networks BACK-UP PASSWORD SHALL RESULT IN COMPLETE LOSS OF ACCESSABILITY TO DATA STORED VIA THE ATI Networks BACK-UP SERVICE.

  7. NO THIRD-PARTY HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE SUPPORT. Customer is responsible for the installation, repair and use of Customer-supplied third-party hardware and/or software. For purposes of this Agreement the Hosting Software shall be considered third party software. “ATI” does not support third-party hardware or software supplied by Customer. Any questions concerning third-party hardware or software should be directed to the provider of that product. “ATI” assumes no liability or responsibility for the installation, maintenance, compatibility or performance of third party software, any Customer-supplied hardware or software with the Services. If such third-party equipment or software impairs the Services, Customer shall remain liable for payments as agreed (if any) without recourse for credit or prorated refund for the period of impairment. “ATI” has no responsibility to resolve the difficulties caused by such third-party equipment or software. If, at Customer’s request, “ATI” should attempt to resolve difficulties caused by such third-party equipment or software, such efforts shall be performed at “ATI’s” discretion and at then-current commercial rates and terms.

  8. CUSTOMER USE.Customer agrees not to re-sell or re-distribute access to the Service(s) or system capacity, or any part thereof, in any manner without the express prior written consent of “ATI”. Customer agrees not to use or permit third parties to use the Service(s), including but not limited to the Equipment and software provided by “ATI”, for any illegal purpose, or to achieve unauthorized access to any computer systems, software, data, or other copyright or patent protected material. Customer agrees not to interfere with other customers’ use of the Equipment or Services or disrupt the “ATI” Network, backbone, nodes or other Services. Violation of any part of this section is grounds for immediate Termination of this Service Agreement and/or all Service Orders in addition to any other rights or remedies “ATI” may have hereunder.

  9. PERFORMANCE.“ATI” will use commercially reasonable efforts in keeping with normal industry standards to ensure that the Service is available to Customer twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week. It is possible, however, that there will be interruptions of Service. Specifically, Customer understands and agrees that the Service may be unavailable from time to time either for scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, technical difficulties, or for other reasons beyond “ATI’s” reasonable control. Temporary service interruptions/outages for such reasons, as well as service interruptions/outages caused by the Customer, its agents and employees, or by a Force Majeure Event, shall not constitute a failure by “ATI” to perform its obligations under this Service Agreement, and Customer will not hold “ATI” at fault for loss of Customer revenue or lost employee productivity due to Service outages.

 10. DEFAULT; SUSPENSION OF SERVICE; TERMINATION.No express or implied waiver by “ATI” of any event of default shall in any way be a waiver of any further subsequent event of default. Nothing herein, including, but not limited to Termination, shall relieve Customer of its obligation to pay “ATI” all amounts due.

  • (a) Default by Customer. Customer shall be in default under this Service Agreement in the event that the Customer does one (1) or more of the following (each individually to be considered a separate event of default) and the Customer fails to correct each such noncompliance within twenty (20) days of receipt of written notice in cases involving non-payment or within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice in cases involving any other noncompliance:

    i. Customer is more than thirty (30) days past due with respect to any payment required hereunder;

    ii. Customer otherwise has failed to comply with the terms of this Service Agreement or any other Service Order(s) incorporated herein by execution thereof by the parties

     
  • (b) “ATI’s” Right to Terminate and Termination Charge. In the event Customer is in default, “ATI” shall have the right, at its option, and in addition to any other rights of  “ATI” expressly set forth in this Agreement and any other remedies it may have under applicable law, to:

    i. Immediately suspend Services to the Customer until such time as the underlying noncompliance has been corrected without affecting Customer’s on-going obligation to pay “ATI” any amounts due under this Agreement (e.g., the Monthly Service Fees), as if such suspension of Services had not taken place;

    ii. Terminate the Services; or

    iii. After the occurrence of two (2) such events of Customer default in any twelve (12) month period of time, terminate this Service Agreement and/or any or all of the applicable Service Order(s).


    If Termination is due to noncompliance by the Customer, Customer must pay “ATI” a Termination charge (a “Termination Charge”), which the parties recognize as liquidated damages. This Termination Charge shall be equal to fifty percent (50%) of the unpaid balance of the Monthly Service Fees that would have been due throughout the remainder of the applicable Service Period plus one hundred percent (100%) of (1) the outstanding balance of any and all One-Time Charges plus (2) any and all previously waived One-Time Charges.
  • (c) Default by “ATI”. “ATI” shall be in default under this Service Agreement in the event that “ATI” fails to comply with the terms of this Service Agreement and/or any or all of the applicable Service Order(s), and “ATI” fails to remedy each such noncompliance or occurrence within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice from Customer describing in reasonable detail the nature, scope and extent of the default or noncompliance:
  • (d) Customer’s Right to Terminate and Termination Charge.

    i. Customer shall have the right, at its option and in addition to any other remedies it may have, to terminate any applicable Service Order(s), if the underlying event of default and/or noncompliance by “ATI” is limited to Services provided under the applicable Service Order(s) or this Service Agreement, if such noncompliance is not so limited, provided that “ATI’s” diligent efforts to correct such breach are not commenced and pursued within thirty (30) days after “ATI’s” receipt of a written notice from the Customer describing in reasonable detail the nature, scope and extent of the event of default/noncompliance.

    ii. If Termination is due to noncompliance by “ATI”, “ATI” shall reimburse Customer for any pre-paid, unused Monthly Service Fees attributable to such terminated Service Order(s). In addition, if Termination is due to noncompliance by “ATI” within one (1) year of the applicable Turn-Up Date, “ATI” shall pay a Termination Charge, which the parties recognize as liquidated damages, equal to a portion of any One-Time Charge that has already been paid by the Customer to “ATI” relative to Service at the sites covered by the terminated Service Order. This Termination Charge “ATI” must pay Customer shall be equal to the product of a) the number of months (or portion thereof) remaining in the initial twelve (12) months of the initial Service Period at the time of Termination and b) a ratio in which the numerator is the total of One-Time Charges paid to date and the denominator is twelve (12).

    iii. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Customer, at its option, may terminate this Agreement without early termination charges by providing written notice to “ATI” not more than thirty (30) days following receipt from “ATI” of notice of any increase in the Monthly Service Fees attributable to Video Services exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Monthly Service Fees attributable to the Video Service in the immediately preceding month. Customer’s failure to provide “ATI” notice of Termination within such thirty (30) days period shall constitute an acceptance of such increase in the Monthly Service Fees exceeding ten percent (10%).

      DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES  AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

  • (a) Limited Warranty. At all times during the Service Period, “ATI” warrants that it will use commercially reasonable efforts in keeping with industry standards to cause the Services to be available to the Customer.

  • (b) Content. Customer acknowledges that any content that Customer may access or transmit through any Service is provided by independent content providers, over which “ATI” does not exercise and disclaims any control. “ATI” neither previews content nor exercises editorial control; does not endorse any opinions or information accessed through any Service; and assumes no responsibility for content. “ATI” specifically disclaims any responsibility for the accuracy or quality of the information obtained using the Service. Such content or programs may include, without limitation, programs or content of an infringing, abusive, profane or sexually offensive nature. Customer and their authorized users accessing other parties’ content through Customer’s facilities do so at Customer’s own risk, and “ATI” assumes no liability whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits or proceedings arising out of or otherwise relating to such content.
  • (c) Damage, Loss or Destruction of Software Files and/or Data. Customer agrees that Customer uses the Services and Equipment supplied by “ATI” at its sole risk. “ATI” does not manufacture the Equipment, and the Services and Equipment are provided on an “as is basis” without warranties of any kind. “ATI” assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any damage to or loss or destruction of any of Customer’s hardware, software, files, data or peripherals which may result from Customer’s use of any Service. “ATI” does not warrant that data or files sent by or to Customer will be transmitted in uncorrupted form or within a reasonable period of time.
  • (d) Unauthorized Access. If Customer chooses to run or offer access to applications from its equipment that permits others to gain access through the Network, Customer must take appropriate security measures. Failing to do so may cause immediate Termination of Customer’s Service by “ATI” without liability for “ATI”. “ATI” is not responsible for and assumes no liability for any damages resulting from the use of such applications, and Customer shall hold “ATI” harmless from and indemnify “ATI” against any claims, losses, or damages arising from such use. “ATI” is not responsible and assumes no liability for losses, claims, damages, expenses, liability, or costs resulting from others accessing the Customer’s computers, its internal network and/or the Network through Customer’s equipment, and Customer shall hold “ATI” harmless from and indemnify “ATI” against any such claims, losses, or damages to the full extent arising from such access.
  • (e) Force Majeure Event. Customer agrees that “ATI” shall not be liable for any inconvenience, loss, liability or damage resulting from any failure or interruption of Services, directly or indirectly caused by circumstances beyond “ATI’s” control, including but not limited to denial of use of poles or other facilities of a utility company, labor disputes, acts of war or terrorism, criminal, illegal or unlawful acts, natural causes, mechanical or power failures, or any order, law or ordinance in any way restricting the operation of the Services.

 13. TITLE.Title to the Equipment shall remain with “ATI” during the applicable Service Period. Customer shall keep that portion of the Equipment located on Customer Premises free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and security interests. Upon Termination of Service or expiration of a Service Order’s Service Period for a specific site, “ATI” shall have the right to remove all Equipment components and/or leave any of such components in place, assigning title and interest in such components to the Customer, it being understood that no further notice or action is required to accomplish the assignment contemplated hereunder. “ATI” shall have the right to remove the Equipment and all components within sixty (60) days after such Termination.
