UA provides a 99% uptime/availability commitment on all software included in the System. Software and hardware components of the System may include status monitoring functionalities that enable UA to proactively ensure issues are addressed and resolved. In those instances when Customer notifies UA of an issue with the System, UA personnel shall generally, but not always, be able to address and resolve the issue before any impact to the performance of the System occurs. For support provided to the Customer directly, UA has a tiered support response structure that will escalate a System issue to the appropriate support level depending on the situation. Tier 1 is defined as on-site support performed by the Customer’s employees, staff, or team after they have been trained by UA and is meant to resolve most day-to-day issues that may pop up with the System. Problems unable to be resolved by Customer after UA training, are escalated to Tier 2. Tier 2 support is defined as phone-based support provided by UA or an authorized UA representative to the Customer. If the issue is unable to be resolved by UA’s phone-based support, the issue will be escalated to Tier 3. Tier 3 is defined as on-site technical support from a UA field engineer or third-party authorized by UA to perform the support activity(ies). Any cost associated with the response time is included in this CSA.

While most support calls are handled immediately, Tier 2 support have response times targets as shown below based on the System component’s priority classification and associated issue’s impact on the System:

مستويات الخطورة

يتم تعريف مستويات الخطورة الموضحة في الجداول أعلاه على النحو التالي:

  • Fatal: Complete System degradation – all users and critical functions affected. Item or service completely unavailable.
  • Severe: Significant System degradation – large number of users or critical functions affected.
  • Medium: Limited System degradation – limited number of users or functions affected. Business processes can continue.
  • Minor: Small System degradation – few users or one user affected. Business processes can continue.

The Supplier shall endeavor to resolve Customer identified issues in a timely manner. The Supplier recognizes that the System is key to the Customer’s daily operations and must be functional in the field. However, UA is unable to provide guaranteed resolution times due to the unknown nature and causes of System and System-related issues that may occur. In all cases, the Supplier will use best efforts to resolve problems as quickly as possible. It will also provide frequent progress reports to the Customer.

Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring access to the Service is terminated for any Licensed User who ceases to be an employee or authorized representative of Customer during the Term. UA shall have no responsibility for managing, monitoring, and/or overseeing Customer’s and its Licensed Users’ use of the Service.

(i) Scheduled network, hardware or service maintenance;

Subject to Customer satisfying its obligations herein, UA guarantees that the Service will be available to Customer and its Licensed Users at least 99% of the time during each calendar month, excluding Excusable Downtime (“Uptime Commitment”). If UA fails to satisfy the Uptime Commitment during a month, then UA will credit to Customer a prorated portion of the Fees in the first month of the next succeeding calendar quarter following the failure. For purposes of this Section, “prorated portion of the Fees” means the product obtained by multiplying the applicable Fees during the month of the failure by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of hours that the Service did not satisfy the Uptime Commitment, and the denominator of which will be the total number of hours during the month that such failure occurred less Excusable Downtime.

Such allotments and services may no longer be available after the expiration of the 90-day period, subject to UA’s discretion.

a. Retrofits of existing uniforms. A quantity of five (5) standard uniform garments, per EOS™ provided, will be modified to EOS™ ready status, for the purpose of integrating EOS™ upon receipt.

Additionally, this program is designed to foster the support of local small businesses in your respective area.

(i) Resellers may participate in the certification program, for the purposes of retrofitting standard duty shirts and soft outer carrier vests only. All other non-standard garment retrofits should be forwarded to UA, at the expense of Customer.

6.1 UA General Indemnity. UA will defend, indemnify, and hold Customer harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including any reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys) arising from any actual third-party claim, demand, action, or proceeding (“Claim”) for personal injury, death, or direct damage to tangible property to the extent directly caused by UA’s negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct while performing its duties under this CSA, except to the extent the claim arises from Customer’s negligence or willful misconduct. UA’s duties under this Section are conditioned upon: (a) Customer promptly notifying UA in writing of any Claim; (b) UA having sole control of the defense of the suit and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and (c) Customer cooperating with UA and, if requested by UA, providing reasonable assistance in the defense of the Claim.

6.2 UA Intellectual Property Infringement. UA will defend Customer against any third-party claim alleging that a UA-developed or manufactured hardware or software included in the System (the “Infringing Property”) directly infringes a United States or Canadian patent or copyright (“Infringement Claim”), and UA will pay all damages finally awarded against Customer by a court of competent jurisdiction for an Infringement Claim, or agreed to in writing by UA in settlement of an Infringement Claim. UA’s duties under this Section are conditioned upon: (a) Customer promptly notifying UA in writing of the Infringement Claim; (b) UA having sole control of the defense of the suit and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and (c) Customer cooperating with UA and, if requested by UA, providing reasonable assistance in the defense of the Infringement Claim. If an Infringement Claim occurs, or in UA’s sole opinion is likely to occur, UA may at its option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Infringing Product; (b) replace or modify the Infringing Product so that it becomes non-infringing; or (c) grant Customer, in UA’s sole discretion, either a (i) a pro rata refund of the Fees paid to UA hereunder for the unexpired portion of the current Term directly associated with the Infringing Product (if the Infringing Product is a software), or (ii) a credit for the Infringing Product, less a reasonable charge for depreciation (if the Infringing Product is hardware, including hardware with embedded software). This Section provides Customer’s sole and exclusive remedies and UA’s entire liability in the event of an Infringement Claim. For clarity, the rights and remedies provided in this Section are subject to, and limited by, the limitation of liability restrictions set forth herein.

6.3 Customer Indemnity. Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold UA and its subcontractors, subsidiaries and other affiliates harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys) arising from any actual or threatened third-party claim, demand, action, or proceeding arising from or related to (a) Customer hardware or software, not provided or supplied by UA under the Offer Letter, or Customer Data, including any claim, demand, action, or proceeding alleging that any such Customer hardware or software, not provided or supplied by UA under the Offer Letter, or Customer Data (or the integration or use thereof with the System) infringes or misappropriates a third-party intellectual property or other right, violates applicable law, or breaches the CSA; (b) Customer hardware’s or software’s, not provided or supplied by UA under the Offer Letter, failure to effectively and efficiently function and operate in conjunction with the System; (c) Customer’s (or its service providers, agents, employees, or Licensed User’s) negligence or willful misconduct; and (d) Customer’s or its Licensed User’s breach of this CSA. This indemnity will not apply to the extent any such claim is caused by UA’s use of Customer hardware or software, not provided or supplied by UA under the Offer Letter, or Customer Data in violation of the CSA. UA will give Customer prompt, written notice of any claim subject to the foregoing indemnity. UA will, at its own expense, cooperate with Customer in its defense or settlement of the claim.

FURTHER, EXCEPT FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE UA PARTIES, WHETHER BASED ON A CLAIM IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT, LAW OR EQUITY, RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE CSA WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES SET FORTH IN THE OFFER LETTER UNDER WHICH THE CLAIM AROSE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS CSA, UA WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF (A) CUSTOMER DATA, INCLUDING ITS TRANSMISSION TO UA OR A THIRD PARTY, OR ANY OTHER DATA AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SYSTEM; (B) CUSTOMER HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE, NOT PROVIDED OR SUPPLIED BY UA UNDER THE OFFER LETTER, OR THE COMBINATION OF THE SYSTEM WITH ANY OF THE FOREGOING; (C) LOSS OF DATA OR HACKING; (D) MODIFICATION OF SYSTEM BY ANY PERSON OTHER THAN UA OR A UA AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE; (E) RECOMMENDATIONS PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH OR BY THE SYSTEM; OR (F) CUSTOMER’S OR ANY LICENSED USER’S BREACH OF THIS CSA OR MISUSE OF THE SYSTEM.
