CREDIT LIMIT AND DEPOSIT: Carrier may increase the Credit Limit at any time upon notice to Company.

If Company fails to remit such payment when due, Carrier shall have the right without further notice to temporarily suspend the Route Management Services until such amounts are received by Carrier.

9.
ROUTE MANAGEMENT TERM: Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement to the contrary, the Route Management Service and the obligations under this Addendum shall commence on Route Management Effective Date and shall remain in force for an initial two (2) year term (the “Route Management Term”). The Parties may enter into good faith negotiations at least six months prior to the end of Year 2 with the goal of reaching an extension to this agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination for convenience rights under Section 3.2 of the Agreement shall not apply to this Addendum.

10. ASSIGNMENT AND CHANGE OF CONTROL: The Agreement (including this Addendum) may not be assigned without the express written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided however, that a Change of Control of a Party, or any deemed assignment (whether or not by operation of law) of the Agreement (including this Addendum) resulting from a “Change of Control” of a Party, shall not require the consent of, or compliance with any precondition of the other Party. In addition, either Party may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of such Party without the need for consent, but with at least ten (10) days prior written notice of such assignment. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” means (i) a merger involving a Party in which such Party is not the surviving entity; (ii) a merger involving a Party in which the Party is the surviving entity but in which securities possessing greater than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of a Party’s outstanding voting securities are transferred to other Persons; (iii) a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of a Party’s property, assets or business or merger into or consolidation with any other Person (other than to a Party’s Affiliate); or (iv) a sale, assignment or other transfer of a Party’s securities possessing greater than 50% of the total combined voting power of such Party’s outstanding voting securities at the time of such transfer. Any attempted or purported assignment not permitted hereunder shall be void.

11. LOCAL LOOP CHARGES: Company shall be responsible for all local loop charges that Carrier is required to pay to any third party service provider that are incurred on behalf of Company and the local loop charges shall survive reduction, suspension and/or termination of services.

12. FORECAST ESTIMATES: At least fifteen (15) days prior to the start of each Quarter, Company shall provide to Carrier a written non-binding forecast estimate of traffic volumes for that Quarter, including without limitation, endeavoring to identify any anticipated traffic volume spike periods (the “Forecast Estimate”). If Carrier receives a Forecast Estimate for any destination(s) which are materially greater than prior Forecast Estimates and the capacity for which is reasonably unplanned for such material increase (“Over-Flow Traffic”), then Carrier shall notify Company promptly (within five (5) Business Days) if it cannot adequately provide the necessary capacity to satisfy the Over-Flow Traffic and confirm the maximum capacity it has for such destination(s) traffic. Company has the option to route away the portion of the Over-Flow Traffic exceeding Carrier’s capacity. Company acknowledges that if it does not route away such Over-Flow Traffic, Carrier is relieved from any liability associated with not performing to the minimum SLAs with respect to such destination traffic. For the avoidance of doubt, Company’s ROW commitment will not be reduced due to Carrier’s inability to provide termination for volumes in excess of * of previous volumes sent by Company to Carrier to any particular destination.

13. TERMINATION: For avoidance of doubt, there is no right of termination for convenience by either party (except for the termination right in Section 9 of this Addendum) notwithstanding any termination for convenience rights under Section 3.2 of the Agreement, nor by Carrier for a material change in financial condition of Company that poses a material financial risk to Carrier notwithstanding the termination rights set forth under Section 3.3(c) of the Agreement; but this Addendum is subject to all other termination rights, including for cause, as set forth in this Addendum and the Agreement; provided that any termination under Section 3.3(a)(ii) of the Agreement must be based on an uncured breach of a material obligation under this Addendum. Company may terminate this Addendum in whole or in part due to Carrier’s SLA failures as set forth in Schedule A. Any expiration or termination of the Addendum is not considered a termination or expiration of the Agreement. Should Carrier terminate this Addendum in accordance with Suspension/Reduction/Termination provisions of the Agreement (except for Section 3.2 or Section 3.3(c) of the Agreement which are not available under this Addendum), or should Company terminate this Addendum for any reason (except for Section 3.2 or Section 3.3(c) of the Agreement which are not available under this Addendum) other than a material breach solely attributable to Carrier which breach has not been cured within thirty (30) days, then Company shall be fully liable to pay to Carrier any termination charges that Carrier is required to pay to any Third Party telecommunications service provider, if any, for terminating their facilities that were incurred on behalf of Company.

IF A DEPOSIT IS THEN WITHHELD BY CARRIER: With respect to this Addendum only, notwithstanding Section 3.3 of the Agreement,

Portions herein identified by * have been omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment under treatment under          Page 10 of 52 –Route Management Services Addendum
Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. A complete copy of this document has been filed             PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.                                     Ver. 12.2 (Custom Dec 2015)




neither the Agreement nor this Addendum may be terminated by Carrier due to non-payment unless such charges are undisputed and are, in the aggregate, in excess of the Company’s unapplied unused deposit held by Carrier (if a deposit is then held by Carrier), and remain unpaid for at least five (5) business days after receipt of written notice (which notice must be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions and refer to the right to terminate if payment is not timely met within the five (5) business day period.) Any termination of this Addendum or the Agreement due to Section 3.3(b), (d) or (e) of the Agreement will have the effect of terminating the Parties’ remaining executory obligations under this Addendum, including the remainder of any unmet minimum commitments and pricing commitments, without affecting payment obligations of invoices for services rendered, or any other rights and remedies under the Agreement (independent of the Addendum) regarding the specific basis for the termination.

14. OFFICER CERTIFICATION: Each Party, upon written request of the other Party and no more often than twice per year, will provide to the other Party within thirty (30) days thereafter a senior corporate officer’s (designated as a corporate officer by such Party’s by-laws) certificate confirming its compliance with the terms of this Addendum in all material respects.

15. AUDIT RIGHTS: Each Party shall have an annual audit right to the extent reasonably necessary to permit a Party or an auditor appointed by a Party:

a)
For Company: Verify Carrier’s compliance with the terms of this Addendum.
b)
For Carrier: Verify Company’s compliance with the terms of this Addendum.

All such audits shall be conducted: (i) no more than once per year during the Route Management Term; (ii) with no less than sixty (60) days prior written notice; (iii) at the cost of the auditing Party; (iv) provided any appointed auditor does not have material conflict of interest with the audited Party; (v) subject to the auditor complying with the audited Party’s reasonable confidentiality and security requirements; and (vi) provided that: (A) it shall be solely for the purposes of verification of compliance with the terms of this Addendum; and (B) the audit requests access to books and records related solely to the transactions between the Parties that are the subject of this Addendum. Any such audit shall be conducted with a minimum of disruption to the other Party’s normal business operations. In the event an audit results in a determination of noncompliance with the terms of this Addendum by a Party, that Party shall pay (or reimburse the other Party for, as applicable) for the reasonable out of pocket costs for that audit.

Schedule A: Service Level Assurance

In order for Company to fulfill its obligations under the Addendum, Carrier must maintain standards of quality in all aspects related to the provision of Termination Services (“SLAs” or “Service Levels”). To that purpose, Carrier agrees to the standards set forth in this Schedule A (including its Annexes), measured daily and SLA performance shall be calculated on a weekly basis.

1. INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE:

1.1 This Schedule describes what Service Levels are provided for the Addendum.

1.2 This Schedule includes Annexes A through E, which set out the specific Service Levels that shall apply.

1.3
Service Levels are comprised of: Service Levels relating to Termination Services (‘Termination Service Levels’); and those relating to fault handling (‘Fault Handling Service Levels’).

2. MEASUREMENT OF SERVICE LEVELS:

2.1 Measurement Period

2.1.1
During the Route Management Term, Carrier shall use industry standard measurement tools to accurately measure, monitor and report the Service Levels, as more specifically set out in Paragraph 3 of this Schedule.

2.1.2    Carrier shall endeavor to meet or exceed the Service Levels, as set forth in this Schedule.


3. SERVICE METRICS FOR CARRIER TERMINATION SERVICES

This section sets out the metrics which shall be used as the basis for setting Service Levels.

3.1 Metrics relating to Carrier Termination Services: Termination Services in relation to specific Service Levels and destinations will be managed and performance reported against the following metrics listed below (‘Performance Services Metric’). The definitions of the Performance Service Metric are set out at Annex A to this Schedule and the manner in which Performance Service Levels are set against the Performance Service Metric in relation to specific Service Levels and destinations is set out in the table to be agreed between the Parties in the form set out at Annex B to this Schedule (‘Destination Service Levels Table’). Subject to the applicable Service Levels and destinations, the Performance Services Metric may include:

*


The Parties will use reasonable endeavors over the Route Management Term to work towards improving the tools for enhancing Service
Level performance.

3.2 Peak Periods: The Parties acknowledge that the aforementioned Performance Services Metric may be impacted periodically by in- country market circumstances such as government-recognized national holidays (“National Holidays”). National Holiday - related impacts shall be considered as Force Majeure Events and such instances shall not be held contributory to the above measurements.

3.2.1    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Carrier and Company shall work together in good faith to develop a capacity plan (“Capacity Plan”) no less than thirty (30) days prior to National Holidays in major destinations to ensure sufficient capacity is available to accommodate for peak traffic during such events. In the event the Parties agree on a Capacity Plan, the applicable Performance Service Metric shall still apply during that National Holiday. In the event the Parties do not agree on a Capacity Plan, and the traffic during the National Holiday cannot be accommodated by Carrier, Company may route away the affected traffic (in which case, the applicable India Commitment and Canada Commitment, respectively, would not apply).

3.3 Fault Handling Metrics: Carrier will provide Company with access to a fully trained fault management team. The specific Fault Handling Service Level definitions are defined below and the specific Service Category to which each metric applies is set out at the Destination Service Levels Table.

3.4 Response Time: The time between Company informing Carrier’s designated contact either by means of telephone, e-mail or via Carrier’s customer portal that in Company’s opinion a Fault (as defined in Section 3.6 below) has occurred and the confirmation from Carrier that the Fault is acknowledged.

3.5 Resolution Time: The time between Company informing Carrier’s designated contact either by means of telephone, e-mail or via Carrier’s customer portal that in Company’ opinion a Fault has occurred and the time at which Company receives by e-mail or via the Carrier customer portal notification that the Fault has been resolved. If Company identifies that the Fault still persists after the closing of a trouble ticket, the Fault shall be considered not closed and the resolution time shall restart from that point of notification from Company.

Subject to the Fault Reporting Procedures as set forth in Annex D, Carrier will inform Company by e-mail, telephone or via the Carrier customer portal of the status in resolving any Fault upon request by Company.



3.5.1 Testing Period: From the time Carrier notifies Company that the validated issue is resolved, Company agrees to test and provide ticket fault resolution or feedback within twenty-four (24) hours. If ticket is closed then Company will re-route traffic as promptly as possible under the circumstances. If Company perceives the issue still exists, Company will provide proof (e.g. call samples, data to support, etc.) of the existence of the issue.

3.5.2 Carrier will endeavor to proactively notify Company of network issues it becomes aware of.

3.6 Fault Definitions: When reporting Faults to Carrier, Company will employ standard definitions of the severity of the Fault. Priority definitions are defined below. Company reserves the right to contact Carrier and increase the Priority based on the impact to its customers. The Fault Handling Metrics for the newly-assigned Priority will commence upon such notice.

a) Priority 1 Faults: Priority 1 Faults are a “Material Service Failure” which means any one or more of the following (provided that at all times a Fault in respect of a single telephone number shall not constitute a Material Service Failure):

(i)    Total outage of Carrier’s Termination Services network * NER;

(ii) Complete loss of Voice Termination Service access to any destination listed on the Carrier Rate Amendment;

(iii) Severe destination impairment on the Termination Service to any destination on the Carrier Rate Amendment for that service, to include:

For traffic routed on Prime Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the
Destination Services Levels Table: * of target for a rolling * period;

For traffic routed on Preferred Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the Destination Services Levels Table* of target for a rolling * period;

Multiple Faults to the same destination on the Termination Service listed in Carrier Rate Amendment *; or

Company opens ticket which is voice impairment related, is customer impacting (Company to provide a screen shot from internal dashboard to show data on customer impact), Company routes specific destination traffic away, and issue is validated to be a Carrier issue.

b) Priority 2 Faults: Means any instance when the following measures in respect of any Termination Service destination fails to be met, either:

i) For traffic routed on Prime Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the
Destination Services Levels Table: * of target for a rolling * period; or

ii) For traffic routed on Preferred Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the Destination Services Levels Table: * of target for a rolling * period.


c) Priority 3 Faults: Means any instance when the following measures in respect of any Carrier Prime Service Destination fails to be met, either:

i) For traffic routed on Prime Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the
Destination Services Levels Table: * of target for a rolling * period;

ii) For traffic routed on Preferred Service Level: Performance Service Metrics falling below key performance targets as set out in the Destination Services Levels Table: * of target for a rolling * period;

iii) Any other Fault not otherwise specified in this Section 3.6(c) to this Schedule A; or

iv) Company opens ticket which is voice impairment related, may or may not be customer impacting, Company does not route away traffic and issue is validated to be a Carrier issue

4. SERVICE LEVEL EXCLUSIONS: Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary herein, Carrier shall be relieved from any failure to achieve a Performance Service Metric to the extent that the cause of an Incident and / or fault is determined to have occurred as a result of one or more of the following conditions:

(a) Any Faults not reported by Company to Carrier as Qualified Trouble Tickets;

(b) Force Majeure Events: Neither Carrier nor Company shall be held responsible for any unforeseen Faults as arising from Force Majeure Events as defined in the Addendum. Carrier is responsible for informing Company immediately of all such issues and events and using all commercially reasonable efforts to provide an alternative solution. In such an event, if the Company is required to route away traffic, Company will be relieved of its Traffic Volume Commitment for the affected period by an amount equal to the daily average amount of traffic to affected destination over the seven (7) days prior to when the Force Majeure Events first occurred multiplied by the number of days Company was required to route away and Company may route such traffic to Third Party telecommunications suppliers at its discretion; provided, however, that Carrier will notify Company of route availability upon elimination of the Force Majeure Event at which time Company will begin a testing period of seven (7) days. Once testing is complete to Company’s reasonable satisfaction, Company will route traffic back to Carrier within the following seven (7) day period. If the Company continues to route traffic to Carrier during the Force Majeure Event, the amount of traffic

Company sent to Carrier for termination will be deducted from the amount of traffic for which it requested relief;

(c) Scheduled Work Outages. If Company is properly notified in accordance with Annex E – Company CRQ Process (via email to Company’s designated NOC contact to suffice) of a “planned outage”, the parties agree that any Trouble Tickets that results from such a planned outage shall not be considered as a Faults, to the extent that such planned outages are limited to three (3) occurrences per Quarter and are in each case completed within an agreed-upon maintenance window. In any event, Company will be relieved of the Traffic Volume Commitment for the entire duration of each planned outage (e.g., whether or not properly notified) by an amount equal to the daily average amount of traffic to affected destination over the seven (7) days prior to when the planned outage first occurred, multiplied by the number of days (and fractions thereof) of the planned outage;

(d) For traffic sent by Company to Carrier during Peak Periods to the extent excluded under Section 3.2 of this Schedule;

(e) Degradation of performance on the affected destination for the period in question is found to be the result of originating customer behavior which affects the successful delivery of the call;

(f) In the event actual ROW traffic sent by Company to Carrier is in excess of the Company's non-binding forecast by more than
* to a particular destination, Carrier shall be relieved of the SLA with respect to the excess traffic to the extent that such failure arises from the excess traffic;

(g) Maintenance actions requested by or attributed to Company;

(h) Applications, equipment or facilities provided by Company, its contractors or end-users; (i) Acts or omissions of Company, its contractors or end-users; or
(j) Where in respect of a particular destination, the Performance Service Metric would have been met if there had been no invalid or unassigned numbers sent by Company.


5. SERVICE LEVEL REPORTING

5.1 Fault Handling Reporting: Carrier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide an accurate SLA and quality performance reporting to Company by the first and third Monday of every calendar month and failure to timely provide such a report shall not be deemed to be a material breach of this Addendum, unless such failure occurs more than four (4) times within any calendar quarter, which will be subject to cure. These statistics will address, at minimum, daily measurements, and SLA performance shall be calculated on a weekly basis.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Schedule A to the Addendum as of the date last written below.

ANNEX A Definitions of Service Metrics


Network Efficiency Ratio
Network Effectiveness Ratio is described in ITU E.411. NER is designed to express the ability of networks to deliver calls to the far-end terminal for Termination Services. NER expresses the relationship between the number of seizures and the sum of the number of seizures
resulting in either an answer signal, or a user busy, or a ring no answer, or, in the case of ISDN, a terminal rejection/unavailability.


Seizure
A call that is accepted for delivery by the receiving network from the originating network for Termination Services. Once seized, a call is now the responsibility of the receiving network to complete.


Answer to Seizure Ratio (ASR)
ASR: As described in ITU E.411-E437, Answer Seizure Ratio (ASR) gives the relationship between the number of seizures that result in an answer signal and the total number of seizures for Termination Services. This is a direct measure of the effectiveness of the service being offered onward from the point of measurement and is expressed as a percentage as follows:

ASR = Seizures resulting in answer signal ×100
Total seizures

Answer Bid Ratio (ABR)
ABR: As described in ITU E.425, Answer Bids Ratio gives the relationship between the number of bids that result in an answer signal and the total number of bids for Termination Services. This is a direct measure of the effectiveness of the service being offered and is expressed as a percentage.

ABR = Bids resultingin answersignal ×100
Total Bids


Bid
Bid: As described in ITU E.410 Annex 10, a bid is an attempt to obtain a circuit in a circuit group or to a destination. A bid may be successful or unsuccessful in seizing a circuit in that circuit group or to that destination.


Average Length Of Conversation (ALOC)
ALOC: As described in ITU E.437, ALOC is the Average Length Of Conversation for completed calls using the Termination Services. A
statistically significant difference in ALOC between two routes may be considered as an indication of some irregularity warranting further investigation.


Number of Repeat Faults
Number of repeat faults is used to describe the number of incidents reported by Company to Carrier as Faults that following Carrier communication of the incident being cleared and Company’s acceptance of the Fault being cleared are subsequently reported again as
Faults of the same nature within a period of * hours of the initial or subsequent clear message from Carrier to Company.

Number of Priority 1 incidents per month
The number of Priority 1 incidents per month is used to describe the number of Priority 1 Faults that Company reports to Carrier and that
Carrier subsequently communicates a clear cause other than “Fault not found”.
Valid Call Attempts
Is used to describe a call request from a Company network to a Carrier network including a valid called party number. Attempts where the called party number is wrong or not in the correct format are excluded form the number of Valid Call Attempts.

Mean Time To Repair
The Mean Time To Repair is used to describe average time between Company opening Qualified Trouble Tickets by the mechanisms specified through the Fault Reporting Process as set forth in Annex C of this Schedule and Carrier communicating the clearance of those
Tickets. In any case that a fault is subsequently found not to be cleared the Mean Time To Repair will be from the start of the original fault to the eventual close of the same fault.


Qualified Trouble Tickets
Qualified Trouble Tickets is used to describe those tickets that are opened as per the Fault Reporting Process as set forth in Annex D to this
Schedule and which relate to Faults meeting the definitions of Fault Definitions as set forth in Section 3 of this Schedule.





ANNEX B SERVICE LEVELS

The following targets will apply to any destination where for each Service tier Company makes no fewer than 300 Valid Call Attempts on a daily average basis to the applicable Destination. If a Peak Period occurs during the month, then for the destination or metric excluded for that period, the number of Valid Call Attempts on a daily average will be reduced pro rata by the duration of the Peak Period in days as a proportion of the total days in the month.

Annex C:
SLA Failure Remedies

For clarification purposes, the following shall apply to Priority 1 and 2 Faults that are initiated by Company upon its detection of an issue, but excluding any Trouble Tickets that arise due to any Service Level Exclusions (as defined in Section 4 above)):


Chronic Events
 
Priority 1 Faults
Priority 2 Faults
Chronic
Issue
* Priority 1 Faults to the same
destination for any rolling * day period.

OR
For India destinations (excluding India Rural) and Canada destinations (excluding the Canada High Cost
Codes), only: Greater than *
in a * day period where
Carrier did NOT meet the MTTR
requirement in Annex B.
* Priority 2 Faults to the
same destination during any rolling * day period.
Chronic
Condition
* Chronic Issues during any rolling * day period to the same destination or * complete
failure across Carrier’s Termination
Services network. OR
For India destinations (excluding India Rural) and Canada destinations (excluding the Canada High Cost
Codes), only: Greater than *
* in a * day period where Carrier did NOT meet the MTTR
requirement in Annex B.
* Chronic Issues during any rolling * day period to the same destinations.


Should Company experience Chronic Events (defined as per table above), it may have the right to route away Termination Services traffic for the affected destination (at the DNIS level). Accordingly, in the event of a Chronic Event, Company may elect to be relieved of its Traffic Volume Commitment for the affected destination (at the DNIS level) without penalty during the Event. In the event Company is unable to fulfill the Traffic Volume Commitments as the result of any one or more Chronic Event(s), Company shall be relieved of any shortfall penalty or other remedy associated with the affected traffic to the affected destination(s) (at the DNIS level), and Company may route such traffic to Third Party telecommunications suppliers at its discretion as a direct result of such Chronic Event(s).

a.
Relief from the Traffic Volume Commitment will be equal to the daily average amount of traffic over the * days prior to when the first Chronic Event occurred, multiplied by the number of days of the Event. Company shall be relieved from its Traffic Volume Commitment obligations for the affected destination (at the DNIS level) from the time when the Event first occurred. Should Company elect any relief from its Traffic Volume Commitment to an affected destination (at the DNIS level), Carrier shall not be relieved of its pricing, capacity or SLA obligations. Upon notice from Carrier, Company will begin a testing period of * days. Once testing is complete to Company’s reasonable satisfaction, Company will route traffic back to Carrier within the following * day period.

b.
Solely with respect to India destinations, in the event Chronic Condition(s) occur * or more times in any rolling * month period during the Route Management Services Term, Company shall have a right to terminate the Addendum in whole or in part upon no less thirty (30) days written notice to Carrier, provided such notice is sent within * days of the completion of the second such Chronic Condition(s) giving rise to this termination right.

c.
Solely with respect to Canada, in the event of * Chronic Condition(s), Company will be relieved of its Canadian Commitment to Carrier. In such instance, the affected destination will no longer be subject to SLA’s under this Schedule.







d.
In addition to and without limiting Company’s rights and remedies under the foregoing, in the event of * Chronic Condition(s) affecting a ROW destination (at the DNIS level), the ROW Commitment will be reduced by the daily average amount of traffic over the * days prior to when the first Chronic Condition occurred for the remaining term of the Addendum and route such traffic to Third Party telecommunications suppliers at its discretion. In such instances, the affected destination will no longer be subject to SLA’s under this Schedule.

e.
For the * Commitment only, if a Company shortfall of Traffic Volume Commitment minutes can be traced back to a Carrier caused by Priority 1 Faults where minute relief was not granted, then Company will not be in violation of any shortfall obligations.
