“Effective Date”); provided that neither party shall he bound until both parties have signed. 
  

	1.	Services. 

 1.1 Definitions. “Agreement” means a collective
reference to this Colocation Facilities Agreement and Exhibits hereto. “Colocation Space” means the colocation space described on a Service Order. “Colocation Services” means a collective reference to the Colocation
Space together with associated power, cooling and other services to be provided by Switch pursuant to a Service Order (exclusive of Carrier Services). “Carrier Services” means a collective reference to internet, transport and other
services provided by one or more third party telecommunications carriers (each a “Carrier”) which are resold to Customer by Switch or procured directly by Customer. “Customer Equipment” means the computer equipment,

1.2 Service Orders. From time to time, the parties may execute Service Orders which reference this Agreement and this
Agreement is hereby incorporated into such Service Orders. This Agreement shall govern over any inconsistent terms and conditions contained in a Service Order. For clarity, each Service Order is a separate and distinct agreement between Switch and
Customer. 
 1.3 Commencement of Services. The “Commencement Date” for the Colocation Space and the
Colocation Services shall be the earlier of: (i) the date Switch makes the Colocation Space available to Customer (which shall not be prior to the Target Service Commencement Date) or (ii) the date Customer places any Customer Equipment in
the Colocation Space. The Commencement Date for Carrier Services shall be the date on which the Carrier Services are made available to Customer by the applicable Carrier. 

 

	2.	Colocation Space. 

         2.1 License Grant. Starting on
the applicable Commencement Date, Switch hereby grants Customer a limited, revocable (pursuant to Section 5.3) license to install and operate the Customer Equipment within the Colocation Space and for no other purpose. 

2.2 Installation and Management. Customer will be solely responsible for the immediate removal from the Premises of all
packaging materials (especially flammable materials) associated with the Customer Equipment and will maintain the Colocation Space in a clean, safe and orderly fashion. Customer must adhere to industry standards for cable management. Cables must be
properly installed and either enclosed in cable management trays or in clean bundles for proper presentation and identification.



 2.3 Location and Configuration. The Colocation Space is located within a t-sciftTM as described on Exhibit B and Customer agrees to abide by the engineering standards inherent in such a structure; including minimizing Customer’s carbon footprint by working with
Switch to maintain a hot aisle temperature between 100° and 110°. The standard cabinet height for the t-scif is 79 inches (42U). All non-standard height cabinets will require a reasonable customization fee for installation within a
thermal-scif. No cabinets above 90 inches will be allowed. Modifications to the Customer Equipment configuration within the Colocation Space require Switch’s prior written consent. 

2.4 Customer Equipment. All Customer Equipment must be UL60950 compliant. The Colocation Space is not intended to provide the
Special Requirements for an Information Technology Equipment Room as contemplated by ANSI/NFPA 70, Article 645 and NFPA 75. The Customer Equipment shall be listed and labeled under UL Standard 60950 or other standard reasonably acceptable to Switch.
The Customer Equipment and its installation shall conform to the requirements contemplated by ANSI / NFPA 70, National Electric Code, Chapters 1 through 4. Customer shall not install Customer Equipment that requires the additional safeguards
contemplated by ANSI /NEPA 70, Article 645 and NFPA 75. 
 2.5 Access. Customer will have access to the Colocation Space
24-hours a day, seven (7) days per week. All access to the Premises shall be in accordance with Switch’s security and access procedures which may be provided to Customer in writing upon request. Customer is responsible for any and all
actions of Customer’s representatives, agents and persons escorted by or on behalf of Customer (collectively, “Customer Representatives”) while on the Premises. Switch may suspend access by any Customer Representative or other

Customer in performing light duties or correcting minor problems with respect to the Customer Equipment. Customer agrees to pay Switch’s fees for such services. 

        2.7 Removal of Customer Equipment. Customer will provide Switch with notice at least two (2) days
before Customer desires to remove a significant piece of Customer Equipment from the Colocation Space so logistics may be arranged within the Premises. Before authorizing the removal of any significant Customer Equipment, Switch’s accounting
department will promptly verify that Customer’s account is in good standing, provided such verification will not delay the removal of Customer Equipment. 

2.8 Vacating the Colocation Space. In the event Customer continues its presence in the Colocation Space after the termination
of the applicable Service Order or this Agreement, Customer agrees to be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement during such occupancy period and to pay for such space an amount equal to twice the MRC due for the period immediately
preceding termination of the

Service Order or this Agreement, unless and to the extent the delay is caused by Switch. No occupancy of the Colocation Space or payments of money by Customer after termination shall prevent
Switch’s immediate recovery of the Colocation Space. Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Switch from and against any and all claims, actions, proceedings or demands made by other customers of Switch (each a
“Claim’) and related Costs arising from or related to Customer’s failure to timely vacate the Colocation Space unless and to the extent the delay is caused by Switch. 

2.9 Relocation of Customer Equipment. Switch shall not arbitrarily require Customer to relocate the Customer Equipment.
However, upon prior notice of at least thirty (30) days, or in the event of an emergency, Switch may require Customer to relocate the Customer Equipment: provided that the relocation site shall afford comparable environmental conditions for
space, power consumption, cooling and accessibility to the Customer Equipment. The reasonable direct costs of the relocation shall be borne by Switch unless the relocation is required to accommodate Customer’s requests. The Premises were
designed to meet Uptime Institute’s Tier 4 standards for power throughputs. If Customer requires power in excess of these thresholds, then Customer shall comply with Switch’s request to move Customer to Switch’s higher density power
data center at no cost to Switch. 
 2.10 Cross-Connections/Carrier Services. Upon request, Switch will provide
Customer with a list of approved Carriers. Customer shall order all cross-connections from Switch. Such cross-connections are subject to Switch’s processes and procedures. All cross-connections shall be installed by Switch. Customer will notify
the applicable Carrier and Switch when Customer desires to terminate or modify any cross-connections. Customer will be solely responsible for all payments due to the Carriers unless the Carrier Services are being provided through Switch, in which
case payment shall be made to Switch. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Carrier Services will be provided by one or more third party Carriers who are not under the control of Switch. Customer understands that Switch does not own or control
any of the Carrier Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Switch is not responsible or liable for performance or non-performance of the Carriers even when resold by Switch except that Switch shall (a) be responsible for all actions or
inactions with respect to the installation of cross-connections made by Switch or any third party acting on its behalf and (b) pass through any service credits provided to Switch by a Carrier pursuant to the applicable Carrier Service Level
Agreement. 
  

	3.	Fees and Billing. 

 3.1 Recurring MRC. Customer agrees to pay the
minimum Monthly Recurring Charges indicated on the Service Order and all other amounts indicated in this Agreement (collectively, the “MRC”). 

3.2 Non-Recurring Charges. Non-Recurring Charges (“NRC”) are due and payable upon execution of the Service
Order by Switch and Customer. Along with the NRC, Customer shall deliver to Switch a Security Deposit equal to one month’s MRC or such other amount as may be indicated on the Service Order, which will be promptly returned to Customer upon
expiration or termination of this Agreement, or applied against the MRC then due. In the event Switch needs to utilize all or any part of the Security Deposit, Customer agrees to replenish the Security Deposit within five (5) business days.
Switch will not have any obligation to perform under any Service Order unless and until Switch receives the NRC and the Security Deposit.



 3.3 Timing of Payment. Switch shall invoice Customer monthly for MRC in advance,
and Customer shall pay such within thirty (30) days after the invoice date. MRC and any other sums not paid within five (5) days after the due date are subject to an interest charge on the outstanding balance equal to the lower of one and
one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum allowable rate under applicable law. During the Service Commitment Period, MRC may increase by an amount not to exceed seven percent (7%) in any calendar year with at least sixty
(60) days-notice to Customer. Power MRC may increase an additional amount to proportionately reflect increases in third party utility charges. 

3.4 Bankruptcy/Insolvency. If Customer .fails to make any payments hereunder, or if a petition is brought by or against
Customer under any state or federal insolvency law, Switch may modify the payment terms to secure Customer’s payment obligations before providing any additional services.

will pay in full all such amounts (exclusive of income taxes payable by Switch), whether imposed on Switch or directly on Customer and that are set forth in an invoice submitted by Switch. 

3.6 Service Credits. In the event of unavailability or failure of the Colocation Services, Customer will receive Service
Credits as set forth in the Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) attached hereto as Exhibit A. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer’s sole and exclusive remedies regarding the unavailability or failure of’
the Colocation Services are those provided in the SLA and Section 5.3. 
  

	4.	Additional Responsibilities. 

 4.1 Customer Equipment. Customer
has sole control and responsibility for installation, testing and operation of the Customer Equipment (including services not provided by Switch). In no event will the untimely installation or non-operation of Customer Equipment (including Off-Net

 4.2 Customer’s End
Users. As between Customer and Switch, Customer is solely responsible for providing its end users with customer service. 

        4.3 Compliance with Law/AUP. Both Switch and Customer shall at all times fully comply with and
faithfully carry out all laws, statutes, ordinances, regulations, promulgations and mandates of all duly constituted authorities applicable to the operations of their respective businesses, and any failure to do so shall constitute a default under

Switch and Customer shall at all times maintain in good standing and effect all necessary and proper business licenses and other licenses and permits relating to its business operations. Customer acknowledges that Switch exercises no control over

Switch is the prevailing party. Additionally, Switch reserves its rights in law and in equity, including the ability to collect the MRC for the balance of the Service Commitment Period (except to the extent Customer is terminating this Agreement due
to Switch’s uncured breach). If Switch is in breach of this Agreement and has failed to cure such breach within the cure period in Section 5.2, then prior to Switch’s cure, Customer may terminate this Agreement and/or any applicable

	 	Exhibit “A”

 SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT 

This Service Level Agreement is a part of the Agreement between Customer and Switch. 

 

	1.	Service Credits 

 Switch is pleased to offer Customer the following service levels regarding the
following items: 
  

	 	•	 	Network Availability 

  

	 	•	 	Network Latency 

  

	 	•	 	Packet Delivery 

  

	 	•	 	Power Delivery 

 If Switch fails to meet any of these service levels, Switch will provide Customer with a
Service Credit. A “Service Credit” is equal to the result of dividing (i) the MRC paid by Customer for the effected service during the calendar month in which the Service Credit was earned by (ii) 30 (the average number of
days in a calendar month). Service Credits may be provided as whole units or as fractional units (e.g. Customer could be entitled to “2.5” Service Credits in a given month). “Network Access Fees” are the fees charged to
Customer for access to and use of the Switch Network. “Switch Network” means the telecommunications/data communications network and network components owned, operated and controlled by Switch within the Premises. The Switch Network
does not include any Customer Equipment or any networks or network equipment not operated and controlled by Switch. 
  

	2.	Switch Network Availability 

 Switch provides 99.99% availability of the Switch Network in any calendar
month, as calculated from the ingress to and egress from the Switch Network. For each cumulative hour or fraction thereof that Customer experiences Switch Network unavailability, Customer may request Service Credits. A Network Service Credit will be
given only for those outages that were reported to Switch at the time of the outage. An outage is measured from the time it is reported to the time it is resolved. 
  

	3.	Switch Network Latency 

 The Switch Network carries packets with an average Network Latency per month of
less than 75 milliseconds. Switch monitors aggregate latency within the Switch Network by monitoring round trip times between a sample of backbone hubs on an ongoing basis. “Network Latency” (or “round trip time”)
is defined as the average time taken for an IP packet to make a round trip between specified backbone hubs on the Switch Network. 
 After Customer notifies
Switch of average Network Latency in excess of 75 milliseconds per month, Switch will use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the source of such excess Network Latency and to correct such problem to the extent that the source of the problem
is on the Switch Network. If Switch fails to remedy such Network Latency on the Switch Network within 24 hours of being notified of any excess Network Latency and the average Network Latency for the preceding month has exceeded 75 milliseconds,
Switch will issue Service Credits to Customer’s account for each hour or fraction thereof from time of notification by Customer until the Network Latency is less than 75 milliseconds. 

 

	4.	Switch Network Packet Delivery 

 The Switch Network has an average monthly Packet loss of 0.1% (or
successful delivery of 99.9% of packets). Switch monitors aggregate packet loss within the Switch Network on an ongoing basis and compiles the collected data into a monthly average Packet Loss measurement for the Switch Network. “Packet
loss” is defined as the percentage of packets that are dropped within the Switch Network. 
 After being notified by Customer of Packet Loss in
excess of 0.1% in a given calendar month (“Excess Packet Loss”), Switch will use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the source of such Excess Packet Loss and to correct such problem to the extent that the source of the
problem is on the Switch Network. If Switch fails to remedy such Excess Packet Loss within 24 hours of being notified of any Excess Packet Loss on the Switch Network and average Packet Loss for the preceding month exceeds 0.1%, Switch will issue
Service Credits to Customer’s account for the period commencing at the time of receipt notification from Customer until the Packet Loss is less than 0.1%. 
  

	5.	Power Service Availability 

 Switch is committed to providing 100% power availability if, and only if,
Customer elects to deploy dual feed (A&B) power. Switch strongly recommends dual power and monitor-ready ATS and PDU’s be correctly deployed in every rack and cabinet to ensure 100% uptime.

 Customer UPS’s are not allowed to be used down-line from the Switch mission critical power system. Switch
Operations must approve all power distribution systems deployed within the Customer’s Colocation Space. All equipment must first be tested on house power prior to plugging into the Switch UPS receptacles. For each hour or fraction thereof
(greater than one minute) that Customer experiences both A&B power unavailability, Customer may request Service Credits for the cabinets experiencing the power loss from Switch. 

A Power Service Credit will be given only for those interruptions that were reported to Switch at the time of the interruption. If Customer only has
single-sided power, Customer will not receive Power Service Credits. Customer must perform fail-over testing procedures at least twice each year to ensure all Customer Equipment will function properly in the unlikely event or a single sided power
interruption. This is for the Customer’s protection. Failure to perform this testing could result in forfeiture of Power Service Credits. 
  

	6.	Environmental Guarantee. 

 Switch guarantees availability of HVAC capacity to maintain temperatures, as
measured by Switch, in the area around the Colocation Space between 64 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit in the cold aisles, and relative humidity between 30% and 70%, excluding events caused by Customer. Customer may request a Colocation Space Service
Credit for each 15 minutes in which these environmental thresholds are exceeded. 
  

	7.	Measured Bandwidth Service Billing Methodology. 

 The concept behind offering a usage based Internet
product is simple: charge the customer for what they actually use. This product is ideal for those customers who either experience substantial swings in monthly usage or are anticipating growth. When traffic patterns will be unpredictable, the
customer can have the security of having enough bandwidth to handle heavy use months, but also retain the flexibility to pay less when traffic declines. 

Customer’s monthly burstable usage is determined by calculating the 95th percentile of data usage that is used over and above Customer’s contracted
floor amount. As is with most data, Internet traffic has peak times throughout the day. Actually, it has peak times within any measurement interval whether it be a day, an hour, or five minutes. Billing on the 95th percentile eliminates the top five
percent (5%) of measurement peaks, and bills on the Mb level at the remaining highest measurement. The purpose for billing at the 95th percentile versus actual peak utilization is to eliminate any abnormal peaks throughout the month. 

Within the router, a counter that keeps track of all bytes passed through each interface, a PERL script using SNMP will poll each applicable Customer
interface every five minutes. At every five minute pass, the code will read the counter and compare the result against the previous reading. The difference between the two will be converted from byte counts to a data rate, polling this data every
five minutes results in 8640 data records per month. These records are then sorted from high to low usage and the top 5% are discarded. The remaining data rate is then used to determine the billing level for the month. For example, out of 100 data
points the top ten are; 
  

							
	100         34.2 Mb	  	97         34.08 Mb	  	94         33.91 Mb	  	91         33.66 Mb
	99         34.18 Mb	  	96         34.02 Mb	  	93         33.84 Mb	  	
	98         34.11 Mb	  	95         33.98 Mb	  	92         33.70 Mb	  	

 Eliminating the top 5% leaves the data rate of 33.98Mb. This is the rate at which Switch will bill Customer for the month.

  

	8.	Conditions. 

 This SLA and Section 5.3 provides Customer’s sole and exclusive remedies for any
service interruptions, deficiencies, or failures of any kind. The parties agree that the Service Credits constitute liquidated damages. No Service Credits shall be issued for Exempted Occurrences. “Exempted Occurrence” means any
occurrence which adversely impacts a service that is caused by: (i) any permissible suspension of service pursuant to the Agreement; (ii) scheduled or emergency maintenance, alteration or implementation; (iii) Force Majeure events;
(iv) the unavailability of necessary Customer Representatives, including as a result of failure to provide Switch with accurate, current contact information; (v) the acts or omissions of Customer or any Customer Representative; or
(vi) failure or malfunction of equipment, applications or systems not owned or controlled by Switch. All performance measurements for the determination of Service Credits are based upon Switch’s records. 

The parties acknowledge and agree that Switch manages traffic on the Switch Network on the basis of utilization of the Switch Network by its customers and
that changes in such utilization impact Switch’s ability to manage network traffic. Therefore, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or the Agreement, if Customer significantly changes its utilization of the Switch Network and
such change creates a material and adverse effect on the traffic balance of the Switch Network, Switch may either modify the Service Credits which may have otherwise accrued or modify Switch’s provision of the affected services. 

Customer must request any credit due hereunder within 60 days after the date on which the credit accrues. Customer waives any right to credits not requested
within this 60 clay period. Customer will not be eligible to accrue any otherwise applicable Service Credits while Customer is: (i) past due
