Terms of Use

ONSTREAM MEDIA CORPORATION, AND ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARIES, ONSTREAM CONFERENCING CORPORATION AND INFINITE CONFERENCING, INC. (“ONSTREAM”) PROVIDE A PLATFORM WHICH OFFERS AN INTEGRATED CLOUD-BASED SAAS MODEL FOR ONLINE TRAINING, PROFESSIONAL LEARNING, EVENT MANAGEMENT, MEDIA ASSET MANAGEMENT, STREAMING AND ONLINE COLLABORATION (COLLECTIVELY, THE “SERVICES”). BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF USE (“TERMS”) DURING AN ORDERING OR REGISTRATION PROCESS, OR BY ACCESSING OR USING OUR SERVICES, WHETHER AS A PAID CUSTOMER OR FREE CUSTOMER, ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF AND/OR YOUR COMPANY, YOU (“YOU” OR “CUSTOMER”) ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY AND ACCEPT THE TERMS CONTAINED HEREIN. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT USE OUR SERVICES. YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO PRINT OR DOWNLOAD THESE TERMS AND TO REGULARLY CHECK THIS WEBSITE TO OBTAIN TIMELY NOTICE OF ANY CHANGES TO THESE TERMS, WHICH MAY OCCUR AT ANY TIME WITHOUT NOTICE. NEW VERSIONS OF THESE TERMS WILL BE INDICATED BY THE VERSION DATE LISTED ABOVE.

You will order the Services via a service order (“Service Order”), which is an Onstream-approved form or online subscription process (which may include in-account ordering) by which you agree to subscribe to the Service. These Terms and any Service Order we enter into shall be referred to collectively herein as this “Agreement.” Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on our website from time to time, are hereby expressly incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

Service Orders may be entered into by Onstream Media Corporation, and by its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Onstream Conferencing Corporation and Infinite Conferencing, Inc. This Agreement will be deemed to be only between our entity that enters into the Service Order and Customer.

The Services are not intended for use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Onstream to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

All users who are minors in the jurisdiction in which they reside (generally under the age of 18) may not order the Services.


LICENSE

Subject to both the acceptance by Onstream of your Service Order, and the terms of your Service Order, Onstream hereby grants to you during the term of your Service Order the non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable right to access and use the Services, solely to the extent required to produce, operate and present multi-media communications relating to your business operations. Unless you have entered into a separate agreement with Onstream, you are prohibited from reselling or acting as a service bureau for any of the Services. You shall not reverse engineer, modify, decompile, disassemble, translate or otherwise attempt to derive source code from any part of the Services or associated software. You shall not remove, alter or obscure in any way any proprietary rights (i.e., copyright) notices.

From time to time after the date of your Service Order, new releases of the Services may add, enhance or change the features and services available. You shall be entitled to use, if you choose, any such new features and services, but additional charges and terms may apply. Onstream reserves the right to withdraw, suspend or discontinue any functionality or feature of the Services at any time. Onstream reserves the right to change dial-in numbers or other methods of access to the Services at any time for any reason, without notice.


PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

You may purchase professional services (“Professional Services”) by placing a Service Order with us. Professional Services may consist of Services implementation and configuration, private branding, training and general consulting. If you order private branding for your Services, then you hereby grant Onstream a license as necessary to apply your branding to your Service. The specific Professional Services description ordered will be set forth on a Service Order. Fees for professional services are in addition to your fees for the Services. Unless we otherwise agree, all Professional Services will be performed remotely. If not performed remotely, then you will reimburse Onstream reasonable travel-related expenses incurred. If you purchase Professional Services that recur, they will be considered part of your Services subscription and will renew in accordance with your Services. All fees for Professional Services are non-refundable.


ORDERING AND PRICING

Ordering of Services. You will order the Services via Service Orders. After your initial Service Order, you may order additional features of the Services by placing additional Service Orders or by activating the additional features from within your account (if this option is made available by us.). This Agreement will apply to all additional Service Orders and all additional features that you activate from within your account. Unless otherwise indicated in a Service Order, additional services ordered during a term will renew on the same schedule as then-current services.

Service Order Term and Renewal. Service Orders are non-cancellable prior to the end of the term stated in the Service Order (the “Term”). Service Orders will automatically renew for subsequent terms of the same length as the original term unless cancelled prior to renewal, provided that if your initial Term was for more than one (1) year, then the renewal term will be for one (1) year. If renewal pricing is not included in your Service Order, then our standard pricing available on the date of renewal will apply.

Fees and Payment for Services. You will pay Onstream fees per the criteria set forth in the applicable Service Order. Fees include recurring fees paid in advance for Services ordered on a subscription basis (“Subscription Services”) and fees for Services that are charged in arrears calculated based upon usage. The Service Order will indicate the length of your Term (e.g., 12, 24 or 36 months) and the payment schedule. If you are ordering Professional Services, then the Service Order will state the price and payment schedule. Onstream reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change or institute new or additional rates, charges and/or fees for access to or use of the Services or to change its payment terms or billing methods at any time. Onstream may suspend or terminate your Services if Onstream determines, in its sole discretion, that your previous payment record so warrants such suspension or termination. All payment obligations are non-cancelable and all amounts paid are non-refundable, except as specifically provided for in this Agreement or on our website. If we offer from time to time the ability to terminate the Service early, then any offered refund shall not include a refund of fees paid for Professional Services, unless the offer expressly states otherwise. You may not cancel Services until the end of the Term. We do not provide refunds if you decide to stop using the Service during your Term. Fees will be billed in U.S. dollars, unless expressly stated otherwise by Onstream or agreed upon by the parties in writing. If renewal pricing is not included in your Service Order, then our standard pricing available on the date of renewal will apply. If you are an Onstream partner that purchases on behalf of a client, you agree to be responsible for the Service Order and hereby guarantee payment of all fees. Prices may be increased at any time. However, for Subscription Services, you will receive notice of any price increases at least 30 days prior to the end of the Term.

The following additional fees may apply to Services, depending upon your specific Service order:

  • International rates and surcharges apply on a per minute basis for all calls originating outside the non-contiguous United States and/or international dial-out.
  • Call set-up and disconnect charges also apply to all inbound and outbound legs of all calls.
  • Onstream rounds completed calls to the next full minute on a per participant basis and rounds the price of the call to the nearest whole cent. Services that are not listed herein, including certain enhanced services such as moderator set-up, cancellation, rescheduling and no-show fees for operator assisted calls, are subject to Onstream’s standard charges, which are available upon request from Customer’s Onstream sales representative or can be found at www.onstreammedia.com.
  • Onstream is required by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to contribute to the federal Universal Service Fund (USF), which subsidizes telecommunications services in high cost and rural areas and services to low income consumers, schools, libraries and rural health care providers. To recover the cost of its federal USF contributions, Onstream assesses federal USF charges equal to the then-applicable quarterly contribution factor (as established by the FCC) times the portion of your invoice subject to federal USF charges.
  • In addition, Onstream assesses up to 10.9% monthly administrative fee on audio conferencing and other services to recover its costs associated with regulatory requirements and compliance and other costs imposed by its underlying telecommunications carriers on Onstream. Onstream will not provide advance notice of any change in the quarterly USF contribution factor, USF charges, the telecommunications surcharge or the administrative fee. USF charges, the telecommunications surcharge, and the service fee are neither taxes nor government-required charges.

Named Users. Your fees may be linked to Named Users. For the purposes hereof, a “Named User” is an individual designated and identified by you as an organizer/administrator who is authorized to use the Services. A Named User designation is for specific employees and may not be utilized by more than a single employee. Named User designations may be transfer to another employee if the original Named User is no longer functioning as an organizer/administrator. For so long as Onstream supports such selections, you may increase your number of Named Users, at any time, by submitting your selections on your account page.

Upgrades. Where permitted by Onstream, at its sole discretion and subject to you meeting all pre-conditions identified or communicated to you for the upgrade offer to you, you may upgrade Services. You are and shall remain responsible for all fees and charges due and incurred for Services provided under an existing ordered plan through the upgrade effective date and you are not and will not be entitled to any partial months’ credits or refunds of any kind as a result of the upgrade. After any upgrade effective date, you shall be responsible for the increased fees and charges associated with the upgrade, including without limitation any new and/or additional charges associated therewith, which may include without limitation, for any overages. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be deemed to require Onstream to permit and/or allow any upgrades. You may not downgrade your ordered Services during the Term and in order to avoid additional charges, you should purchase the appropriate tier of Service for your anticipated needs.

Taxes and Other Charges. All fees are exclusive of taxes, which we will charge as applicable. You will pay, and Onstream reserves the right to collect in arrears, all sales, use, consumption, goods and services, excise or other taxes (other than taxes based upon Onstream net income), fees, surcharges, charges for universal support mechanisms (including without limitation any and all federal or state Universal Service Fund charges) or other charges of any nature whatsoever, now or hereafter imposed or assessed on Onstream, by any foreign, federal, state/provincial, county or local government authority upon or with respect to the Services and Professional Services provided. If you claim exemption from charges, you must provide Onstream with a current, valid exemption certificate from the applicable regulatory authority. Once an exemption certificate has been provided to and verified by Onstream it will become effective on a prospective basis. Onstream shall not be liable for refunds or credit for taxes paid by you for periods prior to Onstream’s receipt of a valid exemption certificate. If at any period during your Term your exemption certificate should no longer be deemed valid, you will immediately be responsible for all taxes and other fees owed until a new and valid exemption certificate is supplied to Onstream.

Credit Cards. All fees shall be paid by you by credit or debit card, and you agree if payment is not received by Onstream from the card issuer or its agents, you will pay all amounts due upon demand by Onstream. Each time you use the Services, or allow or cause the Services to be used, you agree and reaffirm that Onstream is authorized to charge your designated card in connection with the Services and Professional Services. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT ONSTREAM MAY SUBMIT CHARGES FOR USE OF THE SERVICES EACH MONTH, QUARTER OR YEAR, AS APPLICABLE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT, YOUR SERVICE ORDER OR AS SET FORTH ON ONSTREAM’S WEBSITE, WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU FOR EACH CHARGE, until you provide prior written notice (in accordance with Onstream’s verification procedures, as may be established by Onstream from time to time in its sole discretion) that you terminate this authorization or desire to change your designated card. Such notices will not affect charges submitted before Onstream reasonably could act on such notice. When you provide your card information to Onstream (or its designated licensees or subcontractors), you represent and warrant to Onstream that you are the authorized user of your designated card. You agree to promptly notify Onstream of any changes to your designated card account number, its expiration date or your billing address, as applicable, and you agree to notify Onstream if such designated card expires or is cancelled for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, the designated card account holder is responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable taxes, and all purchases made by such account holder or anyone that uses the card. You further authorize us to use a third party to process payments, and consent to the disclosure of your payment information to such third party.

Late Payments and Disputes. Past-due balances not reasonably disputed in good faith as herein provided shall be subject to an interest charge of 5% plus a charge thereafter of 11/2% per month computed from the due date of each invoice previously issued, or the maximum rate legally permitted, whichever is less, and you shall pay any collection costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and other expenses incurred by Onstream to collect any such sums due under this Agreement. You must promptly notify Onstream of any charge disputed in good faith, with supporting documentation, or you will be deemed to agree to such charges and no adjustments to charges or invoices will be made. You remain responsible to pay charges not reasonably disputed in good faith as herein provided by the due date. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER REMEDY HEREIN, IF FEES ARE NOT PAID IN A TIMELY MANNER, OR IF ONSTREAM IS UNABLE TO PROCESS YOUR TRANSACTION(S) USING THE DESIGNATED CARD INFORMATION PROVIDED, ONSTREAM RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SUSPEND AND/OR TERMINATE THE SERVICES OR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.


PROMOTIONAL AND FREE SERVICES

If you use our Services pursuant to a promotional offer granting free usage, which may include without limitation the waiver of certain fees and/or other charges for a designated period of time as defined by a particular promotional offer (“Free Services”), you will receive use of the Free Services solely for that limited period of time and all use of all Free Services shall be subject to the terms herein and any and all other restrictions, limitations and conditions identified or communicated to you with the specific Free Services offer, including without limitation, you are and will remain liable for all charges not otherwise designated as specifically and expressly waived pursuant to the applicable promotional offer. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, all Free Services are provided solely as an accommodation to you, and Onstream reserves the right, at all times and in its sole discretion, to terminate or modify any Free Services at any time without notice, including without limitation for any abuse of the Free Services and/or your failure to pay fees and charges not otherwise designated as specifically and expressly waived pursuant to the applicable promotional offer. TO THE EXTENT YOU SIGN UP TO PAY FOR SERVICES BY CREDIT OR DEBIT CARDS, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT AS A CONDITION TO RECEIVE ANY FREE SERVICES, A FEE AND/OR CHARGE, AS APPLICABLE, WILL BE PRE-AUTHORIZED AGAINST YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD LIMIT (MEANING THE AMOUNTS PRE-AUTHORIZED WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED AVAILABLE CREDIT OR DEBIT FUNDS IN SUCH ACCOUNT) AND, UNLESS THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE OTHERWISE, WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CHARGED TO YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD, WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UPON THE EXPIRATION OF THE FREE SERVICE PERIOD, UNLESS YOU TERMINATE THE FREE SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE SPECIFIC PROMOTION AND/OR THIS AGREEMENT. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION HEREIN, IN THE EVENT ANY PROMOTION HAS RATES AND/OR FEES NOT IMPLEMENTED UNTIL AFTER THE END DATE FOR FREE SERVICES AND ONSTREAM AGREES TO MAKE AVAILABLE ANY FREE SERVICES TO YOU PRIOR TO SUCH RATE IMPLEMENTATION DATE, UNLESS THE PARTIES OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY AGREE IN WRITING, YOUR INITIAL APPLICABLE TERM FOR SERVICES SHALL BE EXTENDED BY THE LENGTH OF THE FREE SERVICES PERIOD; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, IF SUCH FREE SERVICES PERIOD WOULD RESULT IN YOUR INITIAL APPLICABLE TERM ENDING IN THE MIDDLE OF A BILLING CYCLE, THEN SUCH TERM SHALL BE EXTENDED TO THE LAST DAY OF SUCH BILLING CYCLE.


MERCHANDISE AND SERVICES SALES

The Service includes features that facilitate sales by you of products and services. Transactions will be conducted via a third-party payment gateway (“Gateway”) and you will be required to enter into applicable agreements with the Gateway. Such agreements shall be solely between you and the Gateway. Onstream is not a party to such agreements. Other than providing necessary linkage with the Gateway platform, Onstream plays no role in any sale transactions. You are solely responsible for all sales and terms of sales you transact through the Gateway, including, without limitation, the collection of required sales taxes. You agree to indemnify and hold Onstream harmless from and against any claims by purchasers of your products or services conducted via the Gateway. The Gateways that we work with represent that they are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).


BETA VERSIONS

With respect to any beta version of any of the Services (the “Beta Services”) made available to you for purposes of evaluation and feedback, you acknowledge that the Beta Services may contain bugs, errors and other problems and are provided to you “as-is.” To the extent permitted by law, Onstream disclaims any warranty or liability obligations to you of any kind with respect to the Beta Services. You further acknowledge the importance of communication between Onstream and you during your use of the Beta Services and hereby agree to receive related correspondence and updates from Onstream and its suppliers through email or regular mail.

You also hereby acknowledge that Onstream has not made any representations, promises or guarantees that the Beta Services will ever be announced or made available to anyone in the future and that Onstream has no express or implied obligation to you to announce or introduce the Beta Services. With respect to the Beta Services, this subsection shall supersede any other terms and conditions contained herein, but only to the extent necessary to resolve conflict. In addition to and without limiting any other rights or remedies Onstream has, if Onstream determines, in its sole discretion, that you have violated any conditions of and/or limitations on the Beta Services, Onstream reserves the right to immediately terminate the Beta Services.

To use the Services, you must complete the sign-up/registration process, which includes, without limitation, providing a valid email address, agreeing to be bound by this Agreement. You agree to maintain and update your registration information as required to keep it current, complete and accurate.

Onstream further retains the right to reject a registration application in its sole discretion and without a requirement to provide a reason. Without limiting the foregoing, Onstream may refuse to provide the Services to any individual or entity who has cancelled any number of previous accounts.

TERMINATION

Service Order Termination. This Agreement will terminate upon the expiration or termination of all outstanding Service Orders or earlier as herein provided.

Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time in the event that the other party breaches any provision of this Agreement in any material respect and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Onstream may terminate this Agreement and/or suspend the provision of Services immediately: (i) for illegal, fraudulent, improper or abusive use of the Services; (ii) if deemed reasonably necessary by Onstream to prevent interruption or disruption to Onstream’s network, its business or other customers; (iii) if any portion of an invoice not timely and reasonably disputed in good faith as herein provided remains unpaid when due (including without limitation any minimum commitments); or (iv) for breach that is not curable. All terminations by Onstream shall be effective as of the date designated in the termination notice, and Onstream shall not be liable to you or any third party should Onstream exercise its right to discontinue Services, in whole or in part, or terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section.

Suspension for Prohibited Acts. We may suspend any access to any or all Services without notice for: (i) use of the Service in a way that violates applicable local, state, federal, or foreign laws or regulations or the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) use of the Services that results in excessive hard bounces, SPAM complaints via feedback loops, direct spam complaints (to our abuse desk), or requests for removal from a mailing list by recipients. Additionally, we will suspend access to the Service for repeated instances of posting or uploading material that infringes or is alleged to infringe on the copyright or trademark rights of any person or entity. We may remove from the Services without notice any Customer Materials or Customer Data that we determine, in our discretion, violate any term of this Agreement, or that may pose a risk of loss or liability to us or harm to any person, provided that, we have no duty to prescreen, control, monitor or edit your Customer Data or Customer Materials.

Suspension for Present Harm. If your use of the Service: (i) is being subjected to denial of service attacks or other disruptive activity, (ii) is being used to engage in denial of service attacks or other disruptive activity, (iii) is creating a security vulnerability for the Service or others, (iv) is consuming excessive bandwidth, or (v) is causing harm to us or others, then we may suspend all or any access to the Service. We will try to limit the suspension to the affected portion of the Service and promptly resolve the issues causing the suspension of the Service. Nothing in this clause limits our right to terminate for cause as outlined above, if we determine that you are acting, or have acted, in a way that has or may negatively reflect on or affect us, our prospects, or our customers.

Termination for Convenience. Onstream has the right, at all times and in addition to all other termination rights permitted by this Agreement, to terminate the Services and/or this Agreement, and any Service Order, for its convenience and without liability by providing notice to you, with such terminations effective as of the date designated in the applicable termination notice. If the termination is made for any reason other than convenience on the part of Onstream, you shall remain responsible to Onstream for an early termination penalty equal to the fee due for the remainder of the original Term.

Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination, you remain responsible for any and all fees and charges due and incurred through the termination effective date and will not be entitled to any partial month credits or refunds of any kind, including without limitation if you elect to not use the Services prior to the termination effective date. To the extent your agreement has a minimum monthly commitment, you will be liable for the months remaining under this commitment multiplied by the amount of the monthly commitment.

Effect of Termination for Free Services. In addition to and without limiting any other rights or remedies Onstream has herein or otherwise identified or communicated to you with the specific Free Services offer, if Onstream determines, in its sole discretion and whether or not it has conducted an audit, that you have violated any conditions of and/or limitations on the Free Services or any associated software, Onstream reserves the right to immediately terminate the Free Services and to charge and to collect from you the amount you would have been required to pay for the Free Services as a retail customer (applying then-current list rates and/or standard charges, as applicable) during the period of your non-compliance. You agree to pay this amount to Onstream, plus the cost of conducting any associated audits by Onstream that in the sole discretion of Onstream reveal non-compliance.


RETRIEVAL OF CUSTOMER MATERIALS AND CUSTOMER DATA

You are solely responsible to retrieve all Customer Data, Customer Materials and other content from your Services account prior to termination of this Agreement. After termination, we will have no obligation to maintain or provide you the Customer Data, Customer Materials or other content, and may, unless legally prohibited, delete all such content in our systems or otherwise in our control.

SCHEDULE A

SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT

This Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) shall apply to Subscription Services during the Term. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.


1. Availability

a. Formula. The Subscription Service will, subject to the exceptions listed below, be available 99.9% of the time during each calendar month during the Term (referred to herein as the “Availability Commitment”). The availability of the Subscription Service for a given month will be calculated according to the following formula (referred to herein as the “Availability):

Where:    Total minutes in the month = TMM
   Total minutes in the month the Subscription Service is unavailable = TMU
And:    ((TMM-TMU) X 100)/TMM

b. For purposes of this calculation, the Subscription Service will be deemed to be unavailable (referred to herein as “Unavailable”) only (i) if the Subscription Service does not respond to HTTP requests issued by Onstream’s monitoring software, or (ii) for the duration of a Severity-1 Error as defined as an error or issue in a production down situation which cannot be reasonably circumvented and which so substantially impairs the performance of the Subscription Services or any components of the Subscription Services, which are critical to the Customer’s business, as to effectively render them unusable. Further, the Subscription Service will not be deemed Unavailable for any downtime or outages excluded from such calculation by reason of the exceptions set forth in Section 2 of this SLA. Onstream’s records and data will be the basis for all SLA calculations and determinations.


2. Exceptions

a. The Subscription Service will not be considered to be Unavailable for any outage that results from any maintenance performed by Onstream of which Customer is notified either prior to or at the time such maintenance is being performed (referred to herein as “Maintenance”).

b. The Onstream network extends to, includes and terminates at the data center located router that provides the outside interface of each of Onstream’s WAN connections to its backbone providers (referred to herein as the “Onstream Network”). The Subscription Service will not be considered Unavailable for any outage unavailability of the Subscription Service due to (a) Customer's information content or application programming, acts or omissions of Customer or its agents; (b) delays or failures due to circumstances beyond Onstream’s reasonable control that could not be avoided by its exercise of due care; or (c) failures of Internet backbone itself and the network by which Customer connects to the Internet backbone or any other network unavailability outside of the Onstream Network.


3. Remedies

Subject to the exceptions provided for in this SLA, Customer will have the rights set forth below.

  1. If the total Availability (as calculated in Section 1 above) for a given month is less than the Availability Commitment, Customer will receive one Service Credit. In addition, for the first 100-minute increment by which the allowable Unavailability is exceeded, Customer will receive one-half (1/2) of a Service Credit. Thereafter, for each additional 100-minute increment by which the allowable outage is exceeded, Customer will receive one (1) additional Service Credit.
  2. For purposes of this SLA, a Service Credit will be deemed to be an amount equal to the pro-rata fee for one (1) day of the affected Subscription Service (herein referred to as “Service Credit”). The total Service Credits for a given month will, in no event, exceed an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the then-current pro-rata monthly fee for the applicable Subscription Service. Service Credits will be applied to extend the term of the applicable Subscription.
  3. Remedies will not accrue (i.e., no Service Credits will be issued and an outage will not be considered unavailability for purposes of this SLA) if Customer is not current in its payment obligations.
  4. Upon written request from Customer, Onstream shall promptly provide a report specifying the level of Unavailability and Service Credits due (if any) for the requested month. To receive Service Credits, Customer must submit such request within 30 days after the end of the month in which the Subscription Service was Unavailable.
