EXHIBIT C
Service Level Agreement (SLA)
Performance: Pirana Media is proud to offer an exceptional level of performance, reliability, and service. That is why we are making commitments to our customers in the form of a Service Level Agreement (SLA) which provides certain rights and remedies regarding the performance of the Pirana Media network. The Pirana Media Service Level Agreement (SLA) guarantees our network/equipment reliability and performance. This Service Level Agreement (SLA) applies to customers of Pirana Media's web hosting, reseller, dedicated server, co-location, e-commerce, and Internet access services.
Uptime Guarantee: Pirana Media strives to maintain a 99.999% network and service uptime level, and guarantees at least 99.5%. This uptime percentage is a monthly figure, and is calculated solely by Pirana Media monitoring systems or Pirana Media authorized/contracted outside monitoring services. If Pirana Media fails to meet it's 99.5% uptime guarantee, and it is not due to one of the exceptions below, credits will be made available to each Client, upon request, on a case by case basis. Pirana Media does not credit a full month's service for minor downtime. This would not be financially healthy for Pirana Media, and in turn would only negatively affect the service level Pirana Media provides to you. "Partial refunds for partial downtime" is our standard policy. In extreme circumstances, Pirana Media may distribute full month credits, but this is dealt with on a case by case basis. Details on how credit amounts are calculated can be found below.
Exceptions: Customer shall not receive any credits under this SLA in connection with any failure or deficiency of the Pirana Media network caused by or associated with:
Circumstances beyond reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of any governmental body, war, insurrection, sabotage, embargo, "Acts of God" (ie...fire, flood, earthquake, tornado, etc...), strike or other labor disturbance, interruption of or delay in transportation, unavailability of, or interruption, or delay in telecommunications, or third party services, failure of third party software or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of the Service Level Agreement.
Telco Failure (ie...a backhoe cutting a fiber line somewhere).
Backbone peering point issues (ie...Level3™ having a router go down at the main rack provider that wipes out Internet service to a portion of the entire East Coast).
Scheduled maintenance for hardware/software upgrades (normally during off-peak hours).
Hardware failure (faulty hardware is rare, but cannot be predicted nor avoided). Pirana Media utilizes only name brand hardware of the highest quality and performance.
Software bugs/flaws (Exploits and bugs may develop that cause security issues or downtime).
DNS issues not within the direct control of Pirana Media.
Network floods, hacks, attacks from outside parties or individuals.
Failure or error of any Pirana Media monitoring or measurement system.
Weather which may affect performance of wireless access equipment performance.
Client’s acts or omissions, including without limitation, any negligence, willful misconduct, or use of Pirana Media service(s) in breach of Pirana Media
Policies and Service Guidelines (AUP), by Client or others authorized by Client.
Connectivity: Pirana Media's goal is to make the Pirana Media network available to Clients, free of outages, as best possible. An "outage” is defined as an instance in which Client is unable to transmit and receive IP packets due to a Pirana Media service failure for more than 15 consecutive minutes, excluding service failures relating to Pirana Media's scheduled maintenance and upgrades. The Pirana Media network does not include Client premises equipment or any Telco access facilities connecting Client's premises to such infrastructure. Pirana Media's goal is to keep Average Round-Trip Latency on the Pirana Media network to 85 milliseconds or less. Pirana Media defines “Average Round-Trip Latency”, with respect to a given month, as the average time required for round-trip packet transfers between the Pirana Media network and major US backbone peering points during such month, as measured by Pirana Media. Pirana Media's goal is to keep Average Packet Loss on the Pirana Media network to 1% or less. Pirana Media defines “Average Packet Loss”, with respect to a given month, as the average percentage of IP packets transmitted on the Pirana Media network during such month that are not successfully delivered, as measured by Pirana Media.
Measurement: Pirana Media will periodically (on average every 5 minutes) monitor Pirana Media network and server availability using software and hardware components capable of measuring application traffic and responses. Client acknowledges that that such measurements may not measure the exact path traversed by Client’s Internet connection, and that such measurements constitute measurements across the Pirana Media network but not other networks to which Client may connect. Pirana Media reserves the right to periodically change the measurement points and methodologies it uses without notice to Client. Full network and server reporting will be posted to a location designated by Pirana Media and made available to Client.
Hardware Failure: Pirana Media stands behind all equipment on our network. Faulty hardware is rare, but cannot be predicted nor avoided. Pirana Media utilizes only name brand hardware of the highest quality and performance. Pirana Media will replace all faulty hardware affecting performance levels of equipment within 48 hours (when possible), which includes hardware issues that cause server crashes or speed issues. Hardware failure resulting in complete network/server outage/downtime will be corrected within two hours (when possible) of problem identification. Router failure is an exception to this SLA guarantee, and may require on-site Cisco engineers or backbone provider emergency personnel to correct the problem. Router failure is governed by current Pirana Media contracts with Cisco and/or backbone providers in regard to the emergency repair service in case of such an issue. Software re-installation and data replacement after server failure, will be completed with 10 hours of problem identification. Pirana Media will replace all faulty hardware on dedicated servers (rented or leased servers), at no charge to the Client, with an unlimited free replacement policy. This includes parts ordered as upgrades. Pirana Media will replace all faulty hardware on all non-purchased dedicated and wireless access customer premise equipment, at no charge to the Client, unless equipment has been tampered with, or damage is caused by direct neglect/action(s) of Client.
Credits: Credit requests must be made on the Pirana Media web site, by filling out the "Service Level Agreement (SLA) Request" form. Each request in connection with network/server outages/downtime must be received by Pirana Media within five days of the occurrence. Each request in connection with Average Round-Trip Latency or Average Packet Loss in a calendar month must be received by Pirana Media within five days after the end of such month. The total amount credited to a Client for Pirana Media not meeting SLA service levels will not exceed the service fees paid by Client Pirana Media for such services for the period in question. Each validly requested credit will be applied to a Client invoice within 30 days after Pirana Media's receipt of such request. Credits are exclusive of any applicable taxes charged to Client or collected by Pirana Media. Upon Client’s request (in accordance with the procedure set forth below), Pirana Media will issue a credit to Client for network/server outages/downtime occurring during any calendar month that are reported by Client to Pirana Media and confirmed by Pirana Media's measurement reporting. Such credit will be equal to one day’s worth (1/30th) of the monthly fees paid by Client, (for all service fees paid if network outage, or specific affected service fees paid if individual server downtime) multiplied by each hour (or portion thereof rounded to nearest next hour) of the cumulative duration of such outage/downtime. If Average Round-Trip Latency on the Pirana Media network for a calendar month exceeds 85 milliseconds, then upon Client's request, Pirana Media will issue a credit to Client equal to six day's worth (1/5th) of the monthly service fees paid by Client for such month. If Average Packet Loss exceeds 1% during a calendar month, then upon Client’s request, Pirana Media will issue a credit to Client equal to five day's worth (1/5th) of the monthly service fees paid by Client for such month.
General: Pirana Media reserves the right to change or modify this SLA to benefit the Client, and will post changes to location currently housing this SLA at time of modification, which will be made available to Client. Except as set forth in this SLA, Pirana Media makes no claims regarding the availability or performance of the Pirana Media network or servers. Specific terms/ points of this SLA may be adjusted on a case by case basis by the specific Service Agreement signed/agreed by Client. In case of difference terms/points in SLA and Service Agreement, the Service Agreement terms/points prevail over this general SLA policy. The Service Agreement signed/agree Client, is above and beyond this SLA, and Service Agreement terms are in effect, including, but not limited to, limitations of liability.

PIRANA MEDIA BASIC POLICY & SERVICE GUIDELINES (AUP)
This Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) applies to all individuals, businesses, organizations, resellers, and end-Clients (collectively, “users”) employing any Pirana Media services, hardware, property or other products. Use of Pirana Media resources constitutes acceptance of all policies in effect at the time of use. Modification to this policy may be made at any time and will be immediately effective upon posted changes.
Pirana Media reserves the right to protect its resources, users, and reputation from any activity deemed damaging, offensive or abusive. To this measure, Pirana Media will act as sole arbiter in determining violations of this policy.

Furthermore, no refunds for advance payments will be granted for deactivated accounts. Critical offenses and involvement in illegal activity will negate any perceived obligation of Pirana Media to return data.
Abusive Clientele: Pirana Media may, at its discretion, suspend or terminate the service of any Client/reseller who is financially delinquent, abusive/harassing to Pirana Media personnel, or causes general disruption to the operation of the company and service of its users. Examples of such activity include, but are not limited to:
1. Verbal or written abuse of Pirana Media® personnel (obscene language, threats, etc.).
2. Excessive complaints or persistent disregard for alerts, warnings, and/or notices.
3. Repeated reactivation of abusive users.

HYIPs (high-yield investment programs).
Excessive overutilization of resource limits.
Evasion of bans or Black Listings by changing domains/IPs.
Links to any unacceptable content are also prohibited.
Bulk Email & Blacklisting: Pirana Media understands that bulk email is an important mechanism for keeping people informed. However, spamming from the Pirana Media network, and spamvertising (unsolicited advertising of) sites hosted on the Pirana Media network, is prohibited. Legitimate bulk email must meet the following criteria:
ALL recipients have confirmed willingness to be added to a distribution list by clicking on confirmation links or (preferably) by responding to verification emails.
Distributed messages include valid headers, removal instructions, and information on the method by which the subscribed addresses were obtained.
The usage of partially confirmed recipient lists is not allowed. All bulk email senders must post privacy policies and must be clearly identified to recipients during the subscription and confirmation process. The usage of third-party distribution lists is prohibited. If Pirana Media approaches a Client for evidence of confirmation, the request must be honored within 48 hours of the initial spam alert. Deactivation of an account or service may be required, until proof of confirmation is provided and approved. Pirana Media reserves the right to require termination of any services involved in the transmission of unsolicited email. If any activities lead to Black Listing, the involved Client/reseller may be charged an abuse fee of $100.00.
Policy Violations: Storage, presentation, or transmission of any material in violation of any laws, or otherwise prohibited by Pirana Media, is cause for temporary account deactivation, server/service termination, or complete cancellation of all account services. Pirana Media will make an attempt to contact the involved Client via email when the first sign of a possible violation is noted. This notification may occur before or after a service is disabled. Alerts are provided as a courtesy. Prompt responses to alerts are required by all Clients. When an alert is sent, the designated abuse contact is responsible for acknowledging his/her understanding of the offense and providing an adequate response, to the satisfaction of Pirana Media, within 24 hours of the notice. Failure to sufficiently respond to an abuse alert will lead to suspension of any active services involved in abusive activity and will result in a $50.00 fee. If reactivation is warranted, all abuse fees and any outstanding service fees must be paid prior to service being reactivated. Repeated abuse and/or failure to respond to abuse alerts will result in service termination.
Note: It is extremely important to ensure that the abuse email address on record is valid and monitored at all times. This is the address used for abuse notifications and warnings. The address may be set within the Client management interface.
Direct Clients/resellers are fully responsible for any activity found to originate from products and/or services under their care. In any case involving unauthorized parties utilizing a Pirana Media service for abuse, the direct Client/reseller is responsible for locating and stopping all affected applications, until the source of the problem is found and removed. Pirana Media may opt to disable all services until the Client can perform such an investigation or the system can be secured or reinstalled. If the support of Pirana Media is required for the investigation, the Client agrees to compensate Pirana Media at a rate of $65 USD/hour for such service. Reinstallations are performed at a flat-rate of $25 USD (which does not include any operating system changes or licensing costs). Direct Clients/resellers are responsible for maintaining secure systems. This includes, but is not limited to:
1. Requesting kernel updates.
2. Applying application patches Pirana Media will not be responsible for securing dedicated servers, virtual private servers, user accounts/web sites, or third-party applications. Direct Clients/resellers with fully managed support services, may be entitled to a higher level of support than Clientele with basic management.
Resource Usage: Resource usage should be maintained within levels outlined in product descriptions and/or service contracts. Abuse caused by users or unauthorized parties may increase resource usage and lead to overage fees. Overage fees apply to any service utilizing more than its assigned bandwidth allocation, except for services advertised/sold as "UNMETERED". Overages will be calculated based on overall amount of GigaBytes (GB) transferred in a monthly period, unless a service is sold based on Megabits per Second (MBPS). Services sold by MBPS, will be calculated via the industry standard 95% method, unless otherwise specified in the service agreement contract. MRTG or other bandwidth reports are available, upon request. Bandwidth is supplied from a shared pool and is not supplied as guaranteed/dedicated bandwidth, unless advertised as such specifically. Burstable usage of the UNMETERED service/port is permitted. However, a service that has heavy sustained usage may have its port capped and the Client/reseller associated with the service may be required to upgrade to a dedicated service plan. UNMETERED service is supplied on a "best-effort" basis, which may result in some slowdowns during peak traffic periods. Should a Client/reseller utilize or require large amounts of bandwidth, beyond the standard bandwidth allocation, Pirana Media may require a deposit.
Port Usage: Basic Dedicated & Co-Located servers are installed on 100MBPS unthrottled ports, unless service is sold with a specified port size (ie. 10MBPS UNMETERED) or specified/requested as a “capped” port. Pirana Media reserves the right to monitor network usage and throttle the available speed (if a service significantly exceeds average usage) to conserve network resources and to prevent any large billing anomalies. This will generally not include short spikes in usage, but will include, and not be limited to, sustained transfers of significantly larger than average amounts of bandwidth. If, at any time, a Client's or reseller's data transfer rate affects other Pirana Media Clientele, Pirana Media reserves the right to throttle and/or disconnect the service at the source of the problem.
Filtering: Pirana Media reserves the right to block, filter, or throttle ports and/or IP address ranges. For example, this may include blocking Port 6667 (IRC), denying access from a known spammer’s IP address range, or limiting the speed of point-to-point file-sharing programs (Kazaa, Limewire, eDonkey, etc...). This may also include prioritization of certain traffic types, such as Voice-over-IP (VOIP) phone call transmissions.
Virtual Hosting: Pirana Media is pleased to offer unlimited traffic/hits and server usage to Virtual Hosting Clientele. “Unlimited traffic/hits” refers to the number of visitors to a website and NOT the total amount of bandwidth/data transfer. Each Virtual Hosting account is still limited to the bandwidth/data transfer included with its associated service/package. To maintain the integrity of our service, the following usage may be limited/disallowed on Virtual Hosting service:
Banner, graphic, or CGI scripts running from the service and/or being utilized on other domains/websites .
Large graphic or download archives/galleries.
Large chat room gatherings: If you do not qualify for unlimited traffic/hits, your account may be required to be upgraded. To reduce the load on a server, Pirana Media® reserves the right to relocate any site to a different server and/or IP address.
Virtual Private Servers (VPS): To maintain the integrity of Pirana Media services, any VPS (virtual private server) utilizing heavy amounts of system resources may be temporarily disabled. When necessary, Clients/resellers may be required to upgrade the service package to accommodate actual usage. Additionally, to reduce the load on servers, Pirana Media may relocate virtual private server containers to different nodes and/or IP addresses.
Internet Access: Pirana Media does not allow multiple dial-in connections on a single dial-up access account. Multiple computers/networks are permitted to a single Pirana Media Internet Access service. Internet Access Clientele are responsible for maintaining/securing their computer systems. Should any system become infected with a virus and/or spyware which causes or threatens harm to the Pirana Media network, Pirana Media may suspend service until the source of the problem is found and corrected.
Backup Service: To maintain the integrity of backup services, Pirana Media may relocate any backup service to a different server and/or IP address in an effort to reduce the load on the current hosting server. Download/FTP sites, web-serving (httpd), and/or any usage that results in heavy upstream/outgoing bandwidth consumption (beyond that of normal backup operations) is not permitted on the backup service machines. This service is meant for the backup/restore/sharing/storing of data and not for usage normally performed by web/ database servers.
Idle Timeouts: Pirana Media may disconnect any idle connection to the network. Average timeouts are: FTP - 300 seconds Dial-Up - 10-15 minutes Telnet/SSH - 2 hours.
