3 Network Availability.
The availability of the Service ("Network Availability") is measured by "Network Downtime" or "Network Outage" which exists when a particular Eco Data Port is unable to transmit and receive data due to a 46 Labs Eco Data Network outage for more than forty-four (44) consecutive minutes. Network Downtime is measured from the time a trouble ticket is opened by 46 Labs in the 46 Labs NOC Trouble Ticketing System to the time the Affected Service is again able to transmit and receive data. The 46 Labs Eco Data Network shall be available to Customer free of Network Outages for 99.99 % of the time. If the Network availability guarantee is not met in a calendar month, Customer will receive a credit equal to one thirtieth (1/30th) of the affected Service's Eco Data monthly recurring charge ("MRC") for each full hour of outage in excess of the 99.99% guaranteed under this SLA, at a maximum of 1 such credit accrued per day.
Two or more interruptions of forty-four (44) consecutive minutes or more during any one 24-hour period shall be considered as one interruption. In order to qualify for the credit, Customer is responsible for reporting any suspected network availability problems to 46 Labs within twenty-four hours from the time Customer became aware of the problem through the opening of a Trouble Ticket in 46 Labs's Support Ticketing System.
4 Credits.
Customer shall be eligible for a credit during any calendar month per the procedures set forth in this SLA if Customer experiences performance that does not meet the applicable metric set forth in this SLA and is reported by Customer to 46 Labs and confirmed by 46 Labs's measurements. 46 Labs will issue the Eligible Customer a Service Credit provided that the Customer submits in writing, addressed to the Parties at the addresses or fax number below with all necessary supporting documentation within five (5) business days of the confirmed Goal failure to meet the specific SLA metric/s. For calculating credit allowances, every month is considered to have thirty (30) days.
"Affected Service" means the Eco Data Port that fails to meet the applicable Goal. A credit allowance is applied on a pro-rata basis against the monthly recurring charges for Eco Data of the affected service in which the requisite Goal failure occurred. No credits will be available for any usage-base Service or the usage-based portion of any Service. 46 Labs will apply any Service Credits against future payments and will not entitle the customer to a refund. Credits do not survive the end of the contract. Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account.

Cumulative Credits in any one (1) month must exceed $25.00 to be processed. If Customer fails to notify 46 Labs in the manner set forth above with respect to the applicable SLA credits, Customer will have waived its right to any SLA credits for that month.
