  2. Netrepid’s Service Level Commitment.  Netrepid offers a service level agreement on all Hosted Services.  Netrepid reserves the right to review and deny any credits under this section claimed by Customer, should Customer’s claim, in Netrepid’s reasonable judgment, not meet the criteria established for such claim.

(a)        The Netrepid Service Level Commitment is limited to only those Hosted Services provided directly by Netrepid and applies to each service individually.

(b)        Customer eligibility The customer must open a trouble ticket with the Netrepid Repair Center directly at 717-730-0780 or by emailing support@netrepid.com in connection with the Service Level Agreement (SLA) violation in order to be eligible for credit.  The trouble ticket must be relative to the violation in question.  If a customer is entitled to multiple credits under the SLA arising from the same events, then credits shall not be cumulative.  The customer shall be entitled to receive only the maximum single credit available for such an event.

(d)        Service Credit Exceptions Netrepid Network Outage Time is measured from the time a Netrepid trouble ticket is opened, as a result of the customer’s inability to transmit and receive data, to the time the Hosted Services connection is able to transmit and receive data.  Service Credits shall not be issued where the service is unavailable as a result of:

(i)         Failure of any components beyond the customer side including, but not limited to Customer’s applications, equipment or facilities.

(ii)               Network outages caused by non-Netrepid provided local loop (e.g. ILEC provided local loop).
