Appendix A – Description of Services

The Services include the following functionalities and components:

·       We will provide you with a Flex-Mat sensor hardware and a USB charging cable (the “Flex-Mat Sensor”) for the duration of the Term. You may order additional or replacement Flex-Mat Sensor through an Order Form at the then current market pricing for the Flex-Mat Sensor.

·       The Flex-Mat Sensor is delivered with an Instruction Manual.

·       You may create as many End Users as you want through the web application.

·       The Flex-Mat Sensor is used to enable readings of screen box vibrations. The Flex-Mat sensor then generates a report that can be sent or reviewed through a mobile application or a web-based application (the “Vibration App”).

·       The Flex-Mat Sensor measures g-force, stroke, rpm and orbit, including lateral movement.

·       If the cellular network is limited or the connection between the Flex-Mat sensor and the applications is otherwise limited, the data will be stored locally on the mobile devices. Once a suitable connection is available, the information is sent to the web application.

·       The Vibration Apps allow you to visualize previous reports and obtain an historical perspective on the data gathered by the Flex-Mat sensor on the web application.

We may, from time to time, develop new modules or versions which add material functional capabilities or new features to the Services (“Upgrades”). Upgrades are included in the license granted to you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, some Upgrades may be subject to additional fees, in which case, an Order Form must be executed.

Training

·       We will provide you with access to webinars and online material to help you interpret the gathered and data.

·       We will provide you with an Instruction Manual which includes important information on handling and using the Flax-Mat Sensor and the Vibration Apps.

 

Appendix B – Service Level Agreement

Definitions and Explanations

·        “Uptime” means the percentage of total possible minutes our sensors are available during a month. The uptime is calculated as follow:

[(Total minutes in a month – Downtime) / total minutes in a month] x 100.

·       “Downtime” means the overall number of minutes our sensors were unavailable during a month. Downtime excludes Scheduled Downtime (as defined below).

Uptime Commitment

Our uptime commitment for the Services is of 99.95%.  A repetitive and significant breach of this commitment shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

Scheduled Downtime

To ensure optimal performance of the servers, we perform routine maintenance on the servers on a regular basis, requiring servers to be removed from service. We reserve up to 8 hours per month of server unavailability for maintenance purposes. These are referred to as “Scheduled Downtime”. We will provide with written advanced notice of maintenance at least 72 hours before the Scheduled Downtime. This notice will be sent by email to you, at the email noted on the Order Form. If this email changes, it is your responsibility to advise us.[VH7] 

Under certain circumstances, we may need to perform emergency maintenance, such as to install security patches. We will not be able to provide you with an advanced notice in case of emergency maintenance. Unavailability due to emergency maintenance is included in the uptime commitment and counts as a downtime.

Technical Support

Technical support is available through our website at […]. Our policy is to respond to support tickets within twenty-four (24) hours during regular business hours (Monday to Friday, 9AM to 5PM ET), and excluding statutory holidays.

Upon contacting support, End Users will be required to provide identifying information and a full description of the problem or request including error messages and other troubleshooting information as requested by technical support personnel.

 

Incident Management

We maintain an incident management process substantially as described below. The objectives of the incident management process are to restore normal service operation without due delay and to minimize impact on business operations, thus ensuring that the usual levels of service quality and availability are maintained. 

Upon becoming aware of an incident, we will classify the incident based on its severity, as described below:

Severity Level
Criteria
High Severity
·       Unavailability of the Services

·       Imminent threat to Personal Data
Medium Severity
·       Performance of Services delivery is impacted, with significant difficulties to use the Services

·       Accuracy, completeness or functioning of the Flex-Mat Sensors is impacted, leading to unsatisfying results

·       No workarounds or alternatives can easily be used
Low Severity
·       Alternatives or workarounds to the incident can easily be used by End Users to use the Services;

·       No significant impacts on the performance of the Services, or limited impacts which can affect enjoyment but not usability
 

We will address incidents based on their severity. High Severity incidents will be acknowledged and addressed immediately after being classified as such. We will provide you with frequent updates as to the progress of the remediation activities, and until the Services are restored.
