Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Contruent will make the Service available 99% of the time. Availability will
be calculated per calendar quarter, as follows:
[(𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 − 𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑑 − 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑑𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 − 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑑 ) ∗ 100] ≥ 99%

For any partial calendar quarter during which Customer subscribes to the Service, availability will be calculated based
on the entire calendar quarter, not just the portion for which Customer subscribed. In addition, unavailability of some
specific features or functions within the Service, while others remain available, shall not constitute unavailability of the
Service so long as the unavailable features or functions are not, in the aggregate, material to the Service as a whole.

Should Contruent fail to achieve at least 99% availability during any calendar quarter,
Contruent shall provide Customer a credit on the next invoice following the term in which such failure occurred. Such
credit shall be equal to five percent (5%) of the applicable fees due and payable by Customer for the applicable Services
for the affected calendar quarter.
Approach to resilience
Contruent Enterprise is built and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with multiple levels of redundancy and disaster management processes.
Outage reporting
If outages exist for more than a few minutes an email will be sent to accounts.
