If We find that no mistake has been made, You must immediately pay the invoice without set-off or deduction.

34. The taxes, fees and other charges detailed in clause 31(b) (above) may vary on a monthly basis. Surcharges and recovery fees are not taxes and are not required by law, but are set by Us and may change. You also agree to pay any additional charges or fees applied to Your account, including interest and charges due to insufficient credit or insufficient funds. Overdue bills may be sent to a debt collection agency, and You are responsible for debt collection fees in addition to the invoice. Non-recurring charges such as set up, activation and installation fees, and equipment charges, will be included in Your first bill. Actual mileage if applicable will be charged after the installation. We count each byte of data sent from, or to, Your modem.

Thereafter four small automatic data top ups are applied at the current price. Thereafter Your Services will automatically be suspended to allow You to add data top ups manually as needed. This is to prevent excessive unexpected over usage charges. You can customise in Our customer portal if, how many and what size automatic top ups You would like. Pre-paid pricing plans for Additional Services will be billed in advance. Based on Your election and subject to Our approval, We or Our agent will bill You directly. Mobile Phone Services with Data Cap will not stop and attract excess usage charges as per the Mobile Phone Rate Card on Our website. Billing for Broadband Services will automatically begin on the date of installation of Your Broadband Service is complete (Installation Completion Date).

28. Third-party equipment, software and peripheral products are covered by the warranties provided by the original manufacturer or the seller of the product. Third party warranties may vary from product to product. It is Your responsibility to consult the applicable product documentation for specific warranty information. In addition, You acknowledge that certain third party equipment or software warranties may limit or void the remedies that they offer if unauthorised persons perform support service on the equipment or software. It is Your responsibility to ensure that any impact that Our delivery of PTS might have on third party warranties is acceptable to You.

29. PTS is only available to You and to persons You authorise. In either case, the terms of this Agreement will apply to the PTS services We perform.

ATTACHMENT E

Service Level Agreement

AGREED SERVICE LEVELS

Network Availability

1. Network availability is the proportion of the time for which the network is available to originate or receive data over a given period. Network availability refers to the portion of the end-to-end service under the control of the Provider and broadly includes the links from the Internet border to the customer.

We constantly monitor Our network performance and target 99.7% of network availability for each 3 months period. Outages due to fading or interference will not be added to the unavailability figure unless otherwise noted.

In rare cases outages might take longer to fix than as set out in this Service Level Agreement, in particular if:

(a) replacement equipment needs to be shipped and installed;

(b) if We depend on upstream providers in relation to the relevant service; or

Scheduled maintenance downtimes between midnight and 7:00am are excluded in assessing network availability performance.

Residential products are best efforts products, meaning We use Our best efforts to provide the Services but We cannot guarantee the Services will always be available. We do not provide account credits for outages on Our network unless due to Our negligence, and liability in that instance is limited as per clauses 71-74 under Warranties and Limitations of Liability of this Agreement.

For plans designed and priced for commercial use an Individual Service Level Agreement stating separate network availability targets may be made. If so, it must be agreed in writing between the parties.

Fault Reporting and Helpdesk

2. Our helpdesk is available:

(a) Monday to Friday 8:00am to 8:00pm; and

(b) Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays 9:00am to 5:30pm.

Outside these times We also monitor network performance and take action if outages occur as soon as possible.

3. Each fault will be given a Fault Priority Rating by the Customer Help Desk, in consultation with the Customer. The Fault Priority Ratings are as follows:

(a) Priority 1 (Emergency): Customer service is down at multiple sites causing critical impact to operations if the service is not restored quickly.

(b) Priority 2 (High): Customer service is down at a single site, or Customer service is severely degraded significantly impacting business operations.

(d) Priority 4 (Low): Customer service is not faulty but the Customer requires information or assistance on their service.

4. The Fault Priority Rating will correspond to time limits for each level to guarantee that the appropriate escalation takes place. All service difficulties and faults are to be reported to Our fault reporting service/help desk, quoting the following:

(a) Customer Name/Account number;

(b) the affected Service (including service number or circuit id, if available);

(d) caller name and number; and

(e) the name and phone number of the site contact for site attendance.

Service Targets

5. We will aim to meet the response time targets set out in clause 6 of this Attachment being the time taken for the end user’s request for service to be acknowledged for each individual service. It shall be deemed to have occurred upon advice by Wireless Nation that the fault has been identified by remote diagnostics and that action has commenced to rectify the fault.

6. Response time targets:

(a) Priority 1: 1 Hr

(b) Priority 2: 4 Hr (during normal business hours)

(d) Priority 4: 24 Hr (during normal business hours)

7. The feedback process to end user shall be:

(a) Priority 1: Every 1 hour

(b) Priority 2: Every 4 hours (during normal business hours)

(d) Priority 4: Every 48 hours (during normal business hours)

8. Network Availability will be measured in terms of unavailable time. Unavailable time includes that due to faults and unplanned outages. Unless otherwise noted, unavailability due to faults will begin from when the fault is notified to the Wireless Nation Helpdesk, to when the fault is reported as resolved.

9. Except in cases of emergency, We will endeavour to provide You with 5 working days advance Notice of any planned maintenance.

10. Planned outages that are notified do not contribute to Network Availability figures.

Target Service Restoration Time

11. Service Restoration Time is the period commencing when a service fault report is received by the Helpdesk and ends when the service has been restored. Repair occurs when the service is returned to full working order. In some cases a temporary repair may be performed to enable use of the service before permanent repair has taken place.

12. Standard Target SLA

(a) Priority 1: 8 hours

(b) Priority 2: 16 hours

(d) Priority 4: Three business days

13. The above restoration times may be extended by reasonable travelling time to the Your site.

Target Installation Time

14. We endeavour to complete all Satellite and RBI installations within 15 working days, however due to the complexity of these installations (impacted by ordering equipment overseas, satellite bandwidth provisioning, installer and customer availability, weather permitting installations, etc.), it may take longer and We cannot guarantee any timeframes.

15. Custom and any other installations will also be completed as soon as possible, however no guarantees can be given as We are in many cases reliant on upstream providers.
