Connectivity is established between two or more Customer end-points under a unique customer topology.Spectrum will install the coaxial or fiber-optic cable into each Customer site as listed in the Service Order(s). Spectrum will also supply an edge or network interface device, which is Spectrum Equipment, at each site that will be capable of receiving the Service as specified in the Service Order(s). Spectrum's Ethernet Services are"On-Net"if they are provided by Spectrum to Service Locations through the Spectrum Network. Spectrum may, in its discretion, provide Customer with"Off-Net"services to geographic locations that are outside of Spectrum's service area or are not currently connected to the Spectrum Network through third party service providers. Off-Net Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions. Customer's use of Ethernet Service is subject to the following additional terms and conditions: 1. Spectrum's provision of Ethernet Services is subject to availability. 2. Spectrum shall have the right to disconnect(or demand the immediate disconnection of) any Ethernet Service that degrades any service provided to other subscribers on the Spectrum Network. Spectrum shall have the right, but not the obligation,to(a)monitor traffic on the Spectrum network, in its sole discretion; and (b) monitor Customer's bandwidth utilization as Spectrum deems appropriate to efficiently manage its Network. If Customer purchases Multi-Path Ethernet Service, Customer must ensure that no individual Path or data flow of such Service exceeds 2 Gbps (i.e. the rate of data transmission between any two MAC addresses and IP addresses). If Customer's Multi-Path Ethernet Service includes a Path or data flow that exceeds 2 Gbps, Spectrum may limit such Path or data flow to 2 Gbps. For purposes of this Attachment, (i)"Path"shall mean a connection permitting data transmission between a MAC address and IP address and another MAC address and IP address, and (ii) "Multi-Path" shall mean Ethernet Services permitting data transmission between or among three (3)or more MAC addresses and IP addresses. 3. Customer shall not transmit or otherwise make available on or via the Ethernet Service any material (including any message or series of messages)that violates or infringes in any way upon the rights of others,that is unlawful,or that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any law. 4. Customer shall permit Spectrum reasonable access to the Service Locations to inspect the Service Locations at periodic intervals as needed to verify Customer's compliance with this Service Agreement. 5. Customer's use of Ethernet Services is presumed by Spectrum to be jurisdictionally interstate, pursuant to the Federal Communications Commission's mixed use "10% Rule" (47 C.F. R. 36.154, 4 FCC Rcd. 1352). It is Customer's sole responsibility to notify Spectrum if Customer's use of the Service is not jurisdictionally interstate pursuant to the 10% Rule and, so long as Customer's use of the Service remains not jurisdictionally interstate, Customer must certify at least annually that this condition remains in effect, using the form and format available upon request from Spectrum. If Customer fails to provide such certification or if the Customer's certification is inaccurate or invalid, Customer shall be liable for any resulting fees,fines, penalties and/or costs incurred by Spectrum. In addition, if Spectrum determines that Customer's use of the Ethernet Services is likely to be deemed not to be jurisdictionally interstate, and therefore that Spectrum's provision of the Ethernet Services is likely to put Spectrum or its licenses, permits or business at risk, or otherwise cause financial, regulatory or operational problems for Spectrum, then Spectrum may immediately suspend the provision of any or all Ethernet Service under any or all affected Service Orders until such time as either(a)Customer provides Spectrum with satisfactory assurances that Customer's use of Ethernet Services shall be deemed to be jurisdictionally interstate or (b) Customer is otherwise brought into full compliance with any applicable laws and regulations. Unless prohibited under applicable law, Customer at its own expense, shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Indemnified Parties against any and all third party claims, liabilities, lawsuits, damages, losses,judgments, costs, fees and expenses incurred by any Indemnified Parties, including reasonable attorney and other professional fees and court costs incurred by Spectrum Indemnified Parties, to the full extent that such arise from or relate to any fees, fines or penalties incurred by Spectrum as a result of Customer's violation of the 10% Rule.
