Service Level and Support Agreement
This Service Level and Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”), is between the
user (“Customer”) and M&A Tech Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation, d/b/a VDR.Today
(“VDR.Today”) and entered into under upon acceptance of click-through during project entry or
signing of an agreement with referenced terms. Any undefined term has the meaning as set forth
in the Agreement.
Uptime. VDR.Today shall provide the Subscription Services with a minimum of [ninety-nine
percent (99.0%)] Operational Time Twenty-Four (24) hours a day, Seven (7) days a week as
measured over each calendar month. “Operational Time” shall be calculated as [(Hours in
Month – Downtime) / Hours in Month]. “Hours in Month” means the total number of hours in
any given calendar month. “Downtime” means any period of time during that calendar month
during which Customer’s Authorized Users are unable to access data on the Subscription
Services (“Unavailability”), commencing on the receipt of Customer’s notification to
VDR.Today of such Unavailability or when VDR.Today otherwise becomes aware of such
Unavailability and ending when VDR.Today has substantially restored the affected access or
provided a workaround as described below. Downtime shall not include any period of time
during which Customer and/or its Authorized Users are unable to access the Subscription
Services due to: (i) scheduled maintenance and/or upgrades; (ii) an action or omission of
Customer (including its employees, contractors and/or agents); (iii) data quarantined due to virus
infection; or (iv) a Force Majeure Event. The period of Downtime due to such Unavailability
shall be stopped in the event VDR.Today provides to Customer a workaround for such
Unavailability that makes the affected portion of the Subscription Services available to
Authorized Users. VDR.Today shall continue to work on a permanent correction for such
Unavailability in the event it provides a workaround to Customer. In the event Customer
reasonably determines that the workaround materially impacts the use of the Subscription
Services, Customer shall provide telephonic and email notice of such determination, and the
period of Downtime due to such Unavailability shall resume as of the time of such notice to
VDR.Today but shall not include the interim period during which VDR.Today provided such
workaround to Customer. VDR.Today shall continue to work on a permanent correction for such
Unavailability in the event it provides a workaround to Customer.
Scheduled maintenance and/or upgrades are often performed on the third Thursday of each
month between [08:00 PM and 12:00 AM Central Time]. VDR.Today reserves the right to
perform scheduled maintenance at other times in order to update the Subscription Services. This
event does not require prior notification to the Customer or the Authorized Users.
VDR.Today reserves the right to conduct maintenance and/or modernization works of the
Subscription Services between [03:00 PM – 01:00 AM Central Time], that may cause difficulties
or disable using the Subscription Services for the Customer and the Authorized Users. Date and
time of works, as well as its anticipated duration, will be provided to a Customer at least two (2)
days before the planned maintenance.
In special cases affecting security and stability of the Subscription Services, VDR.Today has the
right to temporarily terminate or limit the provision of the Subscription Services and perform
necessary work to restore security and stability of the Subscription Services. In such a case it
may happen that VDR.Today fails to meet the notification deadline mentioned above.
VDR.Today undertakes that the period of unavailability of the Subscription Services will not
exceed [12 hours (synch with % uptime)] per quarter, wherein this period does not include
scheduled downtime for maintenance or situations where the cause of inaccessibility is on the
Customer’s and Authorized Users’ system side.

causes or is likely to cause a harmful interference to the Subscription Services or reduces the
quality of Subscription Services.
-

Incident report and the beginning of the removal procedure.
Incident Type Response Time Reaction Period

the Authorized Users. Handling the Incident requires Authorized User involvement. Time for
repair is suspended while waiting for a response from the Authorized User.
