1. SERVICES AND TERM. 1.1. Pursuant to the CSA, FIBERFEDwill provide the Services to Customer for the Service charges. Customer’s signature on the Order Form constitutes its acknowledgement and agreement to be bound by the CSA. Capitalized terms are defined at the end of these Terms. 

1.2. Each Service’s Initial Term is indicated on the applicable Order Form and the Initial Term will begin as of the Service Date. Customer will be deemed to have accepted the Service as of the Service Date. At the end of the Initial Term, each Service ordered hereunder will renew for successive Renewal Terms equal in length to the Initial Term unless and until terminated as provided herein. 

1.3. Each Service will be provided to the Service Location specified on the Order Form only. Any relocation of a Service shall be an amendment of such Service requiring the consent of both Parties. Customer may order additional Services or locations in North America through additional Order Forms, which will be governed by this CSA. Customer’s account must be current in order to make changes to Services or order additional Services. 

2. SERVICE CHARGES AND BILLING. 2.1. Service charges are on the Order Form and do not include applicable Taxes unless so indicated. New services, upgrades of existing Services or relocations of an existing Service will result in additional fees and/or charges. If a prior Service location remains installed after a new Service location is installed, Customer will be responsible for Service charges for both Service locations until terminated as provided for each Service. 

2.2. Invoices are sent monthly in advance. Customer agrees to pay all charges and applicable Taxes for the Service within thirty (30) days of the invoice date without counterclaim, set-off or deduction. A late charge shall be added to Customer’s past due balance of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum legal rate. FIBERFED may change the specifications, Terms or charges for the Service for any upcoming Renewal Term by providing Customer at least sixty (60) days advance written notice. Customer agrees that its obligation to pay service charges and Taxes under this CSA shall survive the termination of the CSA. 

2.3. Customers claiming tax exemption must provide FIBERFED with a properly executed exemption form. 

3. SERVICE USE AND INTERRUPTION. 3.1. Customer’s use of FIBERFED’s Services or Network may only be for lawful purposes and must comply with FIBERFED’s AUP. Transmission of any material in violation of any law, regulation or the AUP is strictly prohibited. Access to other networks connected to FIBERFED’s Network must comply with such other networks’ rules. Customers whose service location (as set forth on the Order Form) is a FIBERFED-owned or carrier neutral data center may resell FIBERFED’s Dedicated Internet Access Service ordered in that location but not any other Service offered in such location. Customers located in any other service location may not resell their Service, in whole or in part. 

3.2. FIBERFED’s obligations and Customer’s exclusive remedies for a delayed or failed installation of a Service or the failure of FIBERFED’s Network or any Service are stated in theFIBERFED SLA. 

4. TERMINATION, RESTRICTION OR SUSPENSION. 4.1. Prior to the Service Date, FIBERFED may terminate the CSA if not approved by FIBERFED corporate management (including credit check). FIBERFED also may restrict, suspend or terminate the CSA, Customer’s use of or access to any Service, or both, at any time if (a) Customer is in material breach of the CSA (including but not limited to the AUP) and, in FIBERFED’s sole judgment, an immediate restriction or suspension is necessary to protect the FIBERFED Network or FIBERFED’s ability to provide services to other customers; or (b) Customer’s account is unpaid sixty (60) days after date of invoice; or (c) FIBERFED facilities at Customer’s location are unavailable, (i.e., no connectivity and building access). 

4.2. Either Party may terminate the CSA: (a) at the end of an Initial Term or at the end of a Renewal Term by providing the other Party with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice (notices provided during a monthly Renewal Term will not be effective until the end of the next month (i.e., notice received April 20th is effective June 1st); or (b) except as otherwise stated herein, during an Initial Term or Renewal Term if the 

other Party breaches any material term or condition of this CSA and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of the same. All termination notices by Customer must be sent separately for each Service (including terminating one Service location after a Service is switched to a new Service location) and must be sent to customerservice@fiberfed.net. 

4.3. If a Service is terminated prior to the Service Date, Customer shall pay FIBERFED for all Initial Costs for such Service. If the Service is terminated after the Service Date, Customer shall pay FIBERFED (a) for the Service up through the date of termination; and (b) except in the case of termination by Customer as provided in Section 4.2 above, or by FIBERFED due to loss of connectivity or building access at Customer’s building(s) under Section 4.1(c) above, the Initial Costs (unless already paid) and the Termination Charge. Customer acknowledges that because actual damages to FIBERFED caused by early termination of a Service order are uncertain and would be difficult to determine, the Termination Charge is a reasonable liquidated damage and is not a penalty. Any reconnections of the Service shall result in additional reconnection charges to Customer at FIBERFED’s then-prevailing rates. 

4.4. If Customer defaults in any of its payment obligations under the CSA, Customer agrees to pay FIBERFED’s reasonable expenses, including but not limited to legal and collection agency fees, incurred by FIBERFED in enforcing its rights.
