As long as the System is available over the Internet to at least two other comparable non-County customers (i.e., the System is functioning properly and there are no technical issues with Contractor or the Contractor Platform), any inability on the part of County to access the System as a result of a general Internet outage will not be counted toward Network Downtime. System unavailability for the purpose of building redundancy or other recovery systems that is approved by County in advance shall not be charged as downtime in computing the Network Downtime. Contractor Platform or System unavailability due to Contractor’s equipment failure constitutes Network Downtime. 7.1.2. Contractor will refund to County five percent (5%) of the monthly fees (or monthly pro rata equivalent, if recurring fees under the Agreement are charged other than monthly) under the Agreement for each thirty (30) minutes of Network Downtime in excess of that permitted under the Network Uptime Guarantee (up to 100% of County’s monthly or pro rata fee), measured on a calendar month basis. Such refunds will be paid within ten (10) days after the applicable monthly report or, at County’s option, may be credited against amounts due under any unpaid invoice or future invoice. If the Agreement provides for other credit or compensation due to County for an event that also constitutes Network Downtime, the greater of the two amounts shall apply. 7.1.3. Normal availability of the Contractor Platform and System shall be twenty-four
