  (i) A seamless transition of outsourced services to Supplier from Health Net and incumbent vendors in a manner that will minimize business disruption and business risk to Health Net;

 

  (ii) A service delivery environment that is scalable and responsive to change;

  (b) The goals and objectives set out in this Section 1.2(a) are intended to be a general introduction to, and statement of the spirit of, this Agreement.

  (b) Health Net will also designate individuals to serve in the Health Net PMO roles described in the Contract Governance Plan pursuant to Schedule G (Governance).

 

  8.2 Health Net Cooperation Duties

 

  (a) In support of Supplier’s performance of the Services and subject to Section 8.3, Health Net will perform the Functions identified in this Agreement as retained Health Net Functions and provide or make available to Supplier the Equipment, Software, Health Net Facilities and other resources that this Agreement specifies are to be provided by Health Net.

 

  (b) Health Net will cooperate with Supplier, including by making available management decisions, information, approvals and acceptances, as reasonably requested by Supplier so that Supplier may accomplish its obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement.

 

  8.3 Savings Clause

Health Net’s failure to perform its responsibilities set forth in this Agreement (or cause them to be performed) will not constitute grounds for termination by Supplier except as provided in Section 16.3 (Termination by Supplier). Supplier’s nonperformance of its obligations under this Agreement will be excused if and to the extent (a) such Supplier nonperformance results from Health Net’s failure to perform its responsibilities, and (b) Supplier provides Health Net with reasonable notice of such nonperformance and uses Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform notwithstanding Health Net’s failure to perform. If Supplier’s use of Commercially Reasonable Efforts to perform in such a circumstance would cause Supplier to incur significant Out-of-Pocket Expenses, Supplier may so notify Health Net. If it does, Supplier’s obligation to continue its efforts to work around Health Net’s failure to perform will be subject to Health Net agreeing to reimburse Supplier for its additional Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred in the course of such efforts. SUPPLIER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HEALTH NET WOULD NOT BE WILLING TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT WITHOUT ASSURANCE THAT THIS AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE TERMINATED BY SUPPLIER AND THAT SUPPLIER SHALL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUSPEND PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES EXCEPT, AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT, EXPLICITLY PROVIDED HEREIN.

Section 8.3 (Savings Clause); Section 11.10 (Terms Applicable to Health Net Facilities, Generally); Section 16.1 (Termination by Health Net); Section 16.4 (Extension of Termination Date); and Section 18.4 (Records Retention).

 

  9.1 Pass-Through Expenses

 

  (a) “Managed As Pass-Through Expenses” means third party charges that are to be both (A) paid by IBM and reimbursed by Health Net on an Out-of-Pocket Expenses basis, and (B) administered by Supplier. All Managed As Pass-Through Expenses are identified in Schedules I, J and N. Additional Managed As Pass-Through Expenses may be added pursuant to Exhibit C-10 to Schedule C or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties. Supplier shall arrange for delivery by third parties to Supplier of invoices for Managed As Pass-Through Expenses, and Supplier promptly shall review such invoices and provide Health Net with the original invoice together with a statement identifying which charges are proper and valid and should be paid by Supplier as set forth above. Supplier will pay Managed As Pass-Through Expenses invoices on time and will be responsible for any late fees, interest, or other similar payments incurred, unless late payment is due to the fault of Health Net. Supplier shall track the payment status of Managed As Pass-Through Expenses and provide a consolidated report of such status upon Health Net’s request.

 

  (b) Pure Pass-Through Expenses means third party charges for which (i) Health Net shall retain responsibility for all obligations for such contracts, including obligations to review each invoice for accuracy; and (ii) Supplier’s only obligation with regard to such Pure Pass-Through Expenses shall be as a payment agent and as set forth below. All Pure Pass-Through Expenses are identified in Schedules I, J and N. Additional Pure Pass-Through Expenses may be added pursuant to Exhibit C-10 to Schedule C or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties. So long as Health Net provides to Supplier the invoice for a Pure Pass-Through Expense and the funds to be used for the payment of such invoice within a period of time prior to the due date of such invoice that is reasonably sufficient to enable Supplier to pay such invoice prior to such due date, Supplier will pay such Pure Pass-Through Expense invoice on time and will be responsible for any late fees, interest, or other similar payments incurred due to Supplier’s failure to pay such invoice on time. Except as set forth above, Supplier shall have no further obligations with regard to such payment (implied or otherwise). Supplier shall track the payment status of Pure Pass-Through Expenses and provide a consolidated report of such status upon Health Net’s request.

 

  (c)

Supplier shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to minimize the amount of Managed As Pass-Through Expenses. With respect to services or materials paid for on a Managed As Pass-Through Expenses basis, Health Net reserves the right to: (i) obtain such services or materials directly from a third party; (ii) designate the third party source for such services or materials; (iii) designate the particular services or materials (e.g., equipment make and model) Supplier shall obtain; (iv) designate the terms for obtaining such services or materials (e.g., purchase or lease and lump sum payment or payment over time); (v) require Supplier to identify and consider multiple sources for such services or materials or to conduct a competitive procurement; and (vi) review and approve the applicable

Managed As Pass-Through Expenses before entering into a contract for particular services or materials.

 

  9.2 Incidental Expenses

Supplier acknowledges that, except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement, expenses that Supplier expects to incur in performing the Services (including travel and lodging, document reproduction and shipping, and long-distance telephone) are included in Supplier’s Charges and rates set forth in this Agreement. Accordingly, such Supplier expenses are not separately reimbursable by Health Net unless, on a case-by-case basis for unusual expenses, Health Net has agreed in advance and in writing to reimburse Supplier for the expense.

 

  9.3 Taxes

The Parties’ respective responsibilities for taxes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be as follows:

 

  (a) Each Party shall be responsible for any personal property taxes on property it owns or leases, for franchise and privilege taxes on its business, and for taxes based on its net income or gross receipts.

 

  (b) Supplier shall be responsible for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption and other taxes and duties payable by Supplier on the goods or services used or consumed by Supplier in providing the Services where the tax is imposed on Supplier’s acquisition or use of such goods or services and the amount of tax is measured by Supplier’s costs in acquiring such goods or services.

 

  (c) Health Net shall be responsible for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption or other tax existing as of the Effective Date that is assessed on the provision of the Services as a whole, or on any particular Service by any governmental or taxing authority within the United States; provided, however, that (i) Supplier invoices reflect on a current basis (and in any event before any such tax becomes due and payable) the amount of any such tax in each jurisdiction and the taxable Services to which such tax relates, (ii) if Supplier fails to reflect on its invoice any such tax on a current basis, Supplier shall be financially responsible for any penalties and interest assessed by the taxing authority with respect to such tax, and (iii) if Supplier fails to reflect any such tax on a Supplier invoice within *** after such tax should have been invoiced, Supplier shall be financially responsible for the full amount of such tax, including any penalties and interest. Subject to Health Net’s right to terminate the Agreement relating to taxes set forth in Section 16.1(h), Health Net shall bear the responsibility for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption or other tax becoming applicable during the Term (or that is increased during the Term) that is assessed on the provision of the Services as a whole, or on any particular Service by any governmental or taxing authority within the United States (subject to items (i)-(iii) above).

 

  (d) Supplier shall be responsible for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption or other tax that is assessed on the provision of the Services as a whole, or on any particular Service by any governmental or taxing authority outside the United States as of the Effective Date or during the Term.

Final Execution Version

 

  (e) Supplier shall be responsible for any payments required to compensate Supplier Personnel for compensatory tax treatment resulting from Supplier Personnel traveling to perform services, subject to the remainder of this paragraph. In the event that the assignment (or potential assignment) of particular Supplier Personnel to perform Services for Health Net has reached a point such that the continued assignment of such particular personnel is likely to trigger compensatory tax treatment of the travel related expenses reimbursed to such particular Supplier Personnel, Supplier may inform Health Net in writing that Supplier is close to becoming subject to compensatory tax treatment as a result of such assignment, and shall provide an estimate of the amount of such compensatory tax liability. If Supplier fails to so notify Health Net, Supplier shall remain responsible for any amounts resulting from compensatory tax treatment of such particular Supplier personnel. Following such notice by Supplier, Health Net may then elect by sending written notice to Supplier to be financially responsible for any payments required to compensate Supplier with respect to such particular Supplier Personnel in an amount equal to the compensatory taxes assessed to such particular Supplier Personnel as the result of such assignment to the Health Net account. If Health Net does not so elect, Supplier shall remain responsible for any amounts resulting from compensatory tax treatment of such particular Supplier Personnel, provided, however, Supplier may then relocate such personnel to avoid such taxes, and the Parties shall cooperate to make other arrangements so that the Services will be performed without interruption.

 

  (f) In the event that a sales, use, excise, value added, services, consumption or other tax is assessed on the provision of any of the Services, the Parties shall work together to segregate the payments under this Agreement into three (3) payment streams:

 

  (i) those for taxable Services;

 

  (ii) those for which Supplier functions merely as a payment agent for Health Net in receiving goods, supplies, or services (including leasing and licensing arrangements); and

 

  (iii) those for other nontaxable Services.

 

  (g) The Parties agree to cooperate with each other to enable each to more accurately determine its own tax liability and to minimize such liability to the extent legally permissible. Supplier’s invoices shall separately state the amounts of any taxes Supplier is collecting from Health Net, and Supplier shall remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities. Each Party shall provide and make available to the other any resale certificates, information regarding out-of-state or out-of-country sales or use of equipment, materials or services, and other exemption certificates or information reasonably requested by the other Party.

 

  (h)

Supplier shall promptly notify Health Net of, and coordinate with Health Net the response to and settlement of, any claim for taxes asserted by applicable taxing authorities for which Health Net is responsible hereunder, it being understood that with respect to any claim arising out of a form or return signed by a Party to this Agreement, such Party shall have the right to elect to control the response to and settlement of the claim, but the other Party shall have all rights to participate

 

General Terms and Conditions-    23    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

in the responses and settlements that are appropriate to its potential responsibilities or liabilities. If Health Net requests Supplier to challenge the imposition of any tax, Supplier shall do so in a timely manner and Health Net shall reimburse Supplier for the reasonable legal fees and expenses it incurs. Health Net shall be entitled to any tax refunds or rebates granted to the extent such refunds or rebates are of taxes that were paid by Health Net.

 

  (i) Supplier is responsible, at its own risk and expense, for determining the extent (if any) to which Supplier will be required to collect and remit national, federal, state or local (or foreign) taxes: (i) on (or in respect of) any products or Services provided by Supplier or any of its Approved Subcontractors under this Agreement in the jurisdictions in (or from) which Supplier chooses to provide the Services, or (ii) on (or in respect of) Supplier’s charges to Health Net under this Agreement.

 

  9.4 Benchmarking

 

  (a) Benchmark Towers: For purposes of this Section 9.4, the “Network Towers” shall mean the Service Towers (as defined in Schedule C) for (1) Voice Network Services and (2) Data Network Services; and the “IT Towers” shall mean all Service Towers other than the Network Towers.

 

  (b) Frequency. Health Net shall have the right at any time during the Term, beginning March 1, 2010, to benchmark the Charges for one or more Service Towers, each benchmark to be of all the Services within such Service Tower in the aggregate, provided that benchmarking of Charges for a particular Service Tower cannot be initiated (i) more than one (1) time in any ***period or (ii) more than *** times during the Term, and further provided that Health Net shall not be permitted to benchmark the Cross Tower Services Tower separately, but Cross Tower Services Charges attributable to a Service Tower being benchmarked shall be factored into the Charges for such benchmarked Service Tower in conducting the benchmarking for such Service Tower. The Parties acknowledge that for purposes of applying the time periods above, a benchmarking shall begin after a contract with a Benchmarker has been executed and the Benchmarker has commenced performance of services under that contract (each a “Benchmarking Commencement Date”). For example, Health Net may initiate the benchmarking process in 2009 provided the Benchmarking Commencement Date does not occur until March 1, 2010.

 

  (c) Engagement of Benchmarker and Cooperation. A benchmarking under this Section shall be conducted by an independent industry-recognized benchmarking service provider designated by Health Net and approved by Supplier (“Benchmarker”), subject to the following:

 

  (i) Subject to Section 9.4(c)(v), the Benchmarker shall not be a Supplier Competitor as set forth in Schedule V (Supplier Competitors).

 

  (ii)

The Benchmarker will execute a tripartite agreement with Health Net and Supplier which shall reflect the requirements set forth in this Agreement.

  (i) The Benchmarker will conduct the benchmark using a Representative Sample (defined below).

 

  (ii) Prior to performing the benchmark comparison, the Benchmarker will provide and review the Benchmarker’s methodology with Health Net and Supplier, and will explain the normalization approach that will be applied.

 

  (iii) Health Net and Supplier will work with the Benchmarker to appropriately document any changes they mutually agree to make to the Benchmarker’s methodology.

 

  (iv) The Benchmarker shall make adjustments to data relating to each of the Comparators in the Representative Sample to the extent necessary to account for differences between the Services provided to Health Net and the services provided to the respective Comparators that may impede a true “like-for-like” comparison, taking into consideration the following normalization factors:

 

  (A) scope and nature of services;

 

  (B) respective services environments;

 

  (C) the hardware or software used or required to provide the services;

 

General Terms and Conditions-    25    Health Net / IBM Confidential

  (M) any additional or value added services performed by Supplier and not received by the Comparator(s) (or performed for Comparators and not for Health Net) including Health Net’s or the Comparators’ unique requirements, limitations and human resources terms and conditions; and

 

  (N) any other relevant factors.

 

  (v) The Benchmarker will meet with Health Net and Supplier to explain how the normalization was performed on each Comparator in the Representative Sample and will provide Health Net and Supplier the pre-adjustment and post-adjustment Comparator data in a format customarily disclosed by the Benchmarker, to the extent such data can be disclosed while preserving the confidentiality of the Comparators. Each Party shall have the right to raise objections to the normalization performed by the Benchmarker within twenty (20) days after such meeting (the “Normalization Objection Period”), provided however that if Health Net and Supplier in good faith are unable to agree upon a resolution of any such objection within twenty (20) days after the conclusion of such Normalization Objection Period, then the Benchmarker shall proceed as it deems appropriate in its professional judgment and the benchmarking shall continue as described below.

 

  (vi) Neither Health Net nor Supplier will be required to disclose to the Benchmarker actual performance against Service Levels or other actual performance comparison.

 

  (vii) During the thirty (30) day period after the Benchmarker completes the data gathering, but before the Benchmarker has concluded the Benchmark analysis, Health Net and Supplier will have an opportunity to consult with the Benchmarker about how such data gathering activities conformed to the agreed Benchmark process.

 

General Terms and Conditions-    26    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (viii)  Health Net and Supplier agree to participate jointly in all discussions with the Benchmarker and to cooperate reasonably with the Benchmarker in the benchmark activities; provided, however, in no event will Supplier be required to provide the Benchmarker with Supplier data about Supplier’s underlying actual costs and/or cost structure (unless the charges are based on “cost-plus” or are for Managed As Pass-Through or Pure Pass-Through pricing) or data from other Supplier customers.

 

  (ix) Health Net and Supplier agree that all information provided to or obtained from the Benchmarker will be provided to both Health Net and Supplier, unless otherwise agreed.

 

  (x) Health Net and Supplier agree that the benchmark will be conducted in a manner that will not unreasonably disrupt either Party’s operations or performance of the Services.

 

  (e) Representative Sample.

 

  (i) The Benchmarker shall compare the Charges under this Agreement for the Services being benchmarked to the charges being incurred in a representative sample of IT operations (as applicable and in accordance with the Benchmark Process hereunder) by or for other outsourced entities that have outsourced information technology services comparable to the Services to be benchmarked (“Representative Sample”). “Comparator” shall mean an entity within the Representative Sample.

 

  (ii) The Benchmarker shall select the Representative Sample from entities identified by the ***.

 

  (iii) The Representative Sample shall include not less than ***, and may include entities that are outsourcing customers of Supplier.

 

  (iv) The Representative Sample used by the Benchmarker for the Benchmark will be reasonably current (generally based on services provided to Health Net and the Comparators no more than eighteen (18) months prior to the start of the Benchmark).

 

  (f)

Performance and Output of Benchmark. The Benchmarker is to conduct a benchmarking as promptly as is prudent in the circumstances. At the conclusion of the benchmarking process the Benchmarker shall issue an initial report of its findings and conclusions to Health Net and Supplier no later than ninety (90) days from the conclusion of the benchmark. Health Net and Supplier will review the initial report and raise any issues with the Benchmarker regarding such report within thirty (30) days following receipt (the “Review Period”). The Benchmarker will review the issues and any materials provided by either Party and will use reasonable efforts to resolve such issues with Health Net and Supplier, provided that if Health Net and Supplier in good faith are unable to agree upon a resolution of any issue within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the Review Period, then ***. Upon conclusion of the Review Period, and discussion of issues (if any) raised by either Party within the thirty (30) day period described in the prior sentence, the Benchmarker will submit a final benchmark report, including any approved revisions (“Final Benchmarker

Report). Absent fraud, the Final Benchmarker Report shall be final and binding on the Parties.

 

  (g) Adjustments Based on Final Benchmarker Report.

 

  (i) The Benchmarker shall determine if Health Net’s Charges fall within the top quartile, as calculated using the MSExcel “QUARTILE” Function as (viewed from the perspective most favorable to Health Net) of charges in the Representative Sample for each benchmarked Service Tower (“Benchmark Level”).

 

  (ii) If in the Final Benchmarker Report, the aggregate Charges to Health Net under this Agreement for the Service Tower that is the subject of the benchmark are higher than the Benchmark Level for such Service Tower, and the difference between the Benchmark Level and the current Contract Year’s aggregate Charges for the benchmarked Service Tower that were in effect as of the Effective Date is equal to, or less than ***

 

  (iii) If in the Final Benchmarker Report, the Charges to Health Net under this Agreement for the Service Tower that is the subject of the benchmark is in the aggregate higher than the Benchmark Level for such Service Tower, and the difference between the Benchmark Level and the aggregate Charges for the benchmarked Service Tower are greater than the *** then Supplier will ***reduce such Charges for such Services Tower for the remainder of the Term to bring the Charges for such benchmarked Service Tower within *** without requiring modifications to any Service Levels or other terms under this Agreement; subject to the following limitations (“Benchmarking Adjustment Caps”), unless otherwise agreed:

 

  (A) Supplier shall not be required to reduce the aggregate Charges for a benchmarked Service Tower that is one of the IT Towers pursuant to this Section 9.4 following any individual benchmark or multiple benchmarks by more *** the Charges that were in effect as of the Effective Date for such Services Tower in a Contract Year; and in no event shall the total of any and all adjustments to the Charges for all benchmarks that are performed on all IT Towers in aggregate exceed *** the total Charges for all IT Towers that were in effect as of the Effective Date for any Contract Year; and

 

  (B) Supplier shall not be required to reduce the aggregate Charges for a benchmarked Service Tower that is one of the Network Towers pursuant to this Section 9.4 following any individual benchmark or multiple benchmarks by more than *** of the Charges that were in effect as of the Effective Date for such Services Tower in a Contract Year.

 

  (C) The IT Towers and Network Towers for purposes of benchmarking are separate and distinct; a benchmark in one pool shall have no effect on the calculation or adjustment limitations on the other.

 

General Terms and Conditions-    28    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (D) The Benchmark Adjustment Caps shall be calculated separately for each Contract Year of the Term. For example, ***.

 

  (E) ***

 

  (iv) In addition, and without limiting Supplier’s obligation under Section 9.4(g)(iii) above, if following each individual benchmark of a Service Tower an adjustment in excess of one (or if applicable, both) Benchmarking Adjustment Caps is required to bring the Charges for such Service Tower within the Benchmark Deadband, and Supplier is unwilling to make such adjustment for the portion in excess of the applicable Benchmarking Adjustment Cap(s), then Health Net may terminate the affected benchmarked Service Tower (including the applicable portion of the Cross Tower Services Tower) by providing Supplier at least ninety (90) days notice and paying the Wind Down Costs and Balance Sheet Items for such Service Tower as set forth in Schedule C (Charges); provided that if a Service Tower to be terminated is a Network Tower, Health Net shall terminate all Service Towers that are Network Towers (rather than terminate one Network Tower but not the other Network Tower).

 

  (v) Any changes made to the Charges pursuant to a Benchmark will take effect on a prospective basis thirty (30) days following the Benchmarker’s delivery of the Final Benchmark Report.

  10.3 Accountability

Supplier shall maintain complete and accurate records of and supporting documentation for the amounts billable to and payments made by Health Net hereunder. Supplier agrees to provide Health Net with documentation and other information with respect to each invoice as may be reasonably requested by Health Net to verify accuracy and compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

 

  10.4 Proration

Except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement, periodic charges under this Agreement are to be computed on a calendar month basis, and shall be prorated for any partial month.

16. TERMINATION

 

  16.1 Termination By Health Net

Any termination by Health Net shall not constitute an election of remedies and shall be without prejudice as to Health Net’s other rights and remedies.

 

 

(b)

Termination for Convenience. Anytime after the first (1st ) anniversary of the Effective Date, Health Net may terminate this Agreement, in whole or by Service Tower, at any time for convenience (i.e., for any reason or no reason) by giving Supplier at least three (3) months prior written notice specifying the terminated Services and designating the termination date and paying to Supplier on the effective date of termination any applicable termination charges set forth in Exhibit C-8 (Termination Charges).

  (e) If Supplier fails to provide a SAS 70 Audit report in accordance with the requirements above, Supplier shall be responsible for any reasonable additional costs or fees incurred by Health Net as a result of the failure.

Without limiting the foregoing, if a Supplier Audit indicates an adverse impact to Health Net Data, or to Health Net or other Service Recipients, or any violation of this Agreement, Supplier will immediately notify Health Net, providing pertinent details so that Health Net can take steps to avoid or minimize the adverse impacts. Supplier will also correct the errors or problems as soon as reasonably possible.

Health Net will at its expense indemnify, defend and hold harmless Supplier, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, “Supplier Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses suffered or incurred by any of them arising from, in connection with or based on any of the following, whenever made:

 

  (a) Any Claim by, on behalf of or relating to any of the Affected Employees with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Date, excluding Claims for which Supplier is required to indemnify under Section 23.2(a);

 

  (b)

Any Claim relating to Health Net’s failure to observe or perform any duties or obligations to be observed or performed prior to the Effective Date by Health Net under any of the Health Net contracts referenced or identified in Section 11

 

General Terms and Conditions-    78    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

(Transfer or Use of Resources) that are assigned to Supplier or for which Supplier has assumed financial, administrative or operational responsibility;

 

  (c) Any Claim relating to an alleged breach of Health Net’s obligations under Section 21 (Confidentiality) or the Business Associate Agreement;

 

  (d) Any Claim relating to an alleged breach of Health Net’s obligations under Section 27.5 (Legal Compliance);

 

  (e) Any Claim of infringement or misappropriation of any patent, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights, alleged to have occurred because of systems or other items provided to Supplier by Health Net;

 

  (f) Any Claim for death or bodily injury, or the damage, loss or destruction of real or tangible personal property of any third party (including employees of Health Net or Supplier or their respective subcontractors) brought against a Supplier Indemnitee alleged to have been caused by the tortious acts or omissions of Health Net, Health Net personnel or anyone else for whose acts Health Net is responsible. However, Health Net will have a right of contribution from Supplier with respect to the Claim to the extent Supplier’s comparative negligence is responsible for causing the alleged injury or damage, loss or destruction; and

 

  (g) Any Claim by a Service Recipient asserting rights under this Agreement against Supplier (other than rights of indemnification under this Section 23).

 

  23.5 Indemnification Procedures

The following procedures will apply to Claims for which a Party seeks to be indemnified pursuant this Agreement:

 

  (a) Notice. Promptly after an indemnitee receives notice of any Claim for which it will seek indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, the indemnitee will promptly notify the indemnitor of the Claim in writing. No failure to so notify the indemnitor will abrogate or diminish the indemnitor’s obligations under this Section 23 (Indemnification) if the indemnitor has or receives knowledge of the Claim by other means or if the failure to notify does not materially prejudice its ability to defend the Claim. Within fifteen (15) days after receiving an indemnitee’s notice of a Claim, but no later than ten (10) days before the date on which any formal response to the Claim is due, the indemnitor will notify the indemnitee in writing as to whether the indemnitor acknowledges its indemnification obligation and elects to assume control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (a “Notice of Election”).

 

  (b)

Procedure Following Notice of Election. If the indemnitor timely delivers a Notice of Election to the address set forth in Section 27.3 acknowledging its indemnification obligation and electing to assume control of the defense and settlement of the Claim, it will be entitled to have sole control over the defense and settlement of the Claim. After delivering a timely Notice of Election acknowledging its indemnification obligation and electing to assume control of the defense and settlement of the Claim, the indemnitor will not be liable to the indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnitee in defending or settling the Claim. In addition, the indemnitor will not be required to reimburse the indemnitee for any amount paid or payable by the indemnitee in

 

General Terms and Conditions-    79    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

settlement of the Claim if the settlement was agreed to without the written consent of the indemnitor.

 

  (c) Procedure Where No Notice of Election Is Delivered. If the indemnitor does not deliver a timely Notice of Election for a Claim acknowledging its indemnification obligation and electing to assume control of the defense and settlement of the Claim, the indemnitee may defend and/or settle the Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of the indemnitor, including payment of any settlement, judgment or award and the costs of defending or settling the Claim. The indemnitor will promptly reimburse the indemnitee upon demand for all Losses suffered or incurred by the indemnitee as a result of or in connection the Claim.

 

  23.6 Subrogation

Upon fulfilling all of its obligations under this Section 23 (Indemnification) with respect to a Claim, including making payment in full of all amounts due pursuant to its indemnification obligations, the indemnitor will be subrogated to the rights of the indemnitee(s) with respect to that Claim.

 

24. LIABILITY

 

  24.1 General Intent

Subject to the specific provisions of this Section 25 (Liability), it is the intent of the Parties that if a Party fails to perform its obligations in the manner required by this Agreement, that Party will be liable to the other Party for any actual damages suffered or incurred by the other Party as a result.

 

  24.2 Limitations of Liability

 

  (a) Except as provided in Section 24.2(c), Section 24.2(e), and Section 24.2(f), in no event, whether in contract or in tort (including breach of warranty, negligence and strict liability in tort), will a Party be liable for indirect or consequential, exemplary, punitive or special damages (collectively “Consequential Damages”) even if such Party has been advised in advance of the possibility of such damages.

 

  (b) Except as provided in Section 24.2(c), Section 24.2(e), and Section 24.2(f), each Party’s total liability to the other, whether in contract or in tort (including breach of warranty, negligence and strict liability in tort) will be limited to an amount equal to the total charges paid or payable to Supplier pursuant to this Agreement for proper performance of the Services for the twelve (12) months prior to the month in which the most recent event giving rise to liability occurred. If the most recent event giving rise to liability occurs during the first twelve (12) months after the Effective Date, liability will be limited to an amount equal to twelve (12) times the result obtained by dividing the total charges paid or payable under this Agreement from the Effective Date through the date on which such event occurred by the number of months from the Effective Date through such date. An additional *** charges shall be added to the foregoing*** for either of the following:

 

General Terms and Conditions-    80    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (i) Damages attributable to the tortious willful misconduct of a Party ***, or

 

  (ii) Damages arising out of a failure by Supplier to commence the provision of Disengagement Assistance (or the cessation of such assistance after commencement), which:

 

  (A) occurs after Health Net (1) has satisfied all pre-conditions necessary for Supplier to provide such Disengagement Assistance pursuant to Section 16.6; and (2) after Health Net has provided not less than two (2) written notices to Supplier requesting Disengagement Assistance, and (3) after such time that Health Net has cured any Health Net breach of its payment obligations under Section 10.2 (subject to Health Net’s right to dispute charges pursuant to Section 10.7; and

 

  (B) prevents the transition of core elements (i.e., the elements that enable Health Net to conduct a core business function) of a Service Tower from Supplier to Health Net or Health Net’s designee;

and *** shall be recoverable in an amount of up to *** months of such *** of charges.

Service Level Credits do not count against and do not reduce the amounts available under the foregoing limitations.

 

  (c) The limitations and exclusions of liability set forth in Section 24.2(a) and Section 24.2(b) (Limitations of Liability) will not apply to any of the following: ***.

 

  (d) Service Recipient Damages” shall mean damages suffered by a Service Recipient, but only to the extent that Health Net would be entitled to recover such damages under the terms and conditions of this Agreement if Health Net had incurred such damages instead of such Services Recipients. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, IBM and Health Net agree that Health Net shall be entitled to recover Service Recipient Damages from IBM. For clarification, Service Recipient Damages shall be aggregated with Health Net’s damages in determining IBM’s total liability to Health Net for purposes of Section 24.2(b) above.

 

  (e) Without limiting (i) each Party’s responsibility for direct damages under the Agreement, and (ii) each Party’s right to claim other direct damages, the following shall be considered direct damages and shall not be considered consequential damages to the extent they result form a Party’s failure to fulfill its obligations in accordance with this Agreement:

 

  (i) ***;

 

  (ii) ***;

 

  (iii) ***;

  (iv) ***; and

 

  (v) ***.

 

  (f) Notwithstanding Section 24.2(a) - Section 24.2(d) above regarding limitations and exclusions of liability, Supplier shall be liable for, and Health Net shall have the right to recover from Supplier, the following: ***. Supplier’s total liability under this Section 24.2(f) shall be limited to (i) for the period from the Effective Date until the earlier to occur of (A) the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Effective Date, and (B) the date that the primary servers supporting the iSeries, zSeries and VMS platforms are running in production from Supplier’s data center in Boulder, Colorado (such earlier date being the “Data Center Transformation Date”), an amount equal to***, and (ii) after the Data Center Transformation Date, an amount equal to***, unless the fines, penalties, sanctions, prompt pay interest or similar amount relates to Health Net Data that is encrypted or that Supplier was obligated to encrypt under this Agreement, in which event the amount shall be equal to the total charges paid or payable to Supplier pursuant to this Agreement for proper performance of the Services for the *** prior to the month in which the most recent event giving rise to liability occurred. Nothing set forth in this Section 24.2(f) shall be construed to limit Supplier’s obligations or liability with respect to Supplier’s indemnification obligations set forth in Section 23.2.

 

  (g) Each Party has a duty to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mitigate the damages suffered by it for which the other Party is or may be liable.

 

  24.3 Force Majeure

 

  (a) No Party will be liable for any default or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement (i) if and to the extent such default or delay is caused, directly or indirectly, by fire, flood, pestilence, earthquake, elements of nature or acts of God, riots, or civil disorders, (ii) provided the non-performing Party is without fault in causing such default or delay, and such default or delay could not have been prevented by reasonable precautions and could not reasonably be circumvented by the non-performing Party through the use of alternate sources, workaround plans or other means (including with respect to Supplier by Supplier meeting its obligations for performing disaster recovery and business continuity services as described in this Agreement) (each such event a “Force Majeure Event”).

 

  (b)

In such event the non-performing Party will be excused from further performance or observance of the obligations so affected for as long as such circumstances prevail and such Party continues to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to recommence performance or observance without delay. Any Party so delayed in its performance will immediately notify the Party to whom performance is due by telephone (to be confirmed in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of the inception of such delay) and describe at a reasonable level of detail the circumstances causing such delay. To the extent the provision of the Services or any part thereof is prevented or materially affected by a Force Majeure Event, Health Net’s obligation to pay charges hereunder shall accordingly be reduced by an equitable amount (which in the case of total suspension of the Services would

 

General Terms and Conditions-    82    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

be an amount equal to the total charges hereunder for the period of suspension), subject to any Health Net payment obligations under Section 24.3(c).

 

  (c) If any event under Section 24.3(a) substantially prevents, hinders or delays performance of the Services, then upon Health Net’s request, Supplier shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such Services from an alternate source, the implementation of which shall be subject to Health Net’s prior approval. If such event substantially prevents, hinders, or delays performance of Services necessary for the performance of functions reasonably identified by Health Net as critical for more than *** consecutive days, then at Health Net’s option: (i) Health Net may procure such Services from an alternate source, and Supplier will be liable for payment for such Services from the alternate source for so long as the delay in performance will continue but not to exceed *** and provided Health Net continues to pay Supplier for the Services subject to the Force Majeure Event; (ii) Health Net may terminate any portion of this Agreement so affected by such Force Majeure Event and the charges payable under this Agreement will be equitably adjusted to reflect those terminated Services; or (iii) Health Net may terminate this Agreement without liability to Health Net or Supplier as of a date specified by Health Net in a written notice of termination to Supplier. Supplier will not have the right to any additional payments from Health Net for costs or expenses incurred by Supplier as a result of any Force Majeure Event, except for (i) Wind Down Costs relating to Service Towers that were unaffected by the Force Majeure Event but nonetheless terminated by Health Net pursuant to this Section 24.3(c); and (ii) charges payable under this Agreement for Disengagement Assistance required by Health Net.

 

  (d) A Force Majeure Event will not relieve Supplier of its obligations to implement successfully all of the Services relating to disaster recovery services that are included in this Agreement within the time period described in this Agreement unless the resources specifically identified in Supplier’s disaster recovery plan for Health Net have also been rendered unavailable as a result of a Force Majeure Event to those resources.

  25.3 Contract Amendments and Modifications

Any terms and conditions varying from this Agreement on any order or written notification from either Party will not be effective or binding on the other Party.

Supplier, in furnishing the Services, is acting as an independent contractor. Supplier has the sole right and obligation to supervise, manage, contract, direct, procure, perform or cause to be performed, all work to be performed by Supplier under this Agreement. Supplier is not an agent or partner of Health Net and has no authority to represent or bind Health Net as to any matters, except as expressly authorized in this Agreement. This Agreement establishes a nonexclusive relationship between the Parties.

 

  25.6 Consents and Approvals

Where approval, acceptance, consent or similar action by either Party is required under this Agreement, such action will not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld unless this Agreement expressly provides that it is in the discretion of the Party. No approval or consent given by a Party under this Agreement will relieve the other Party from responsibility for complying with the requirements of this Agreement, nor will it be construed as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement (except to the extent, if any, expressly provided in such approval or consent). Each Party will, at the request of the other Party, perform those actions, including executing additional documents and instruments, reasonably necessary to give full effect to this Agreement.

 

  25.7 Waiver

No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or remedy will operate as a waiver of that right, power or remedy, and no waiver will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving Party. If a Party waives any right, power or remedy, the waiver will not waive any successive or other right, power or remedy that Party may have.

 

  25.8 Remedies Cumulative

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to a Party under this Agreement, at law, or in equity.

26. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Any dispute between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including with respect to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or with respect to performance by Supplier or Health Net, will be resolved as provided in this Section 26 (Dispute Resolution).

 

  26.1 Informal Dispute Resolution

 

  (a) Subject to Section 26.1(b), the Parties initially will attempt to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement informally in accordance with the following:

 

  (i) Within ten (10) days after a Party receives notice of a dispute from the other Party (“Dispute Date”), it will designate a senior representative (i.e., a person whose rank within the company is superior to, in the case of Supplier, the Supplier PE, and in the case of Health Net, the Health Net Program Manager) who does not devote substantially all of his time to performance under this Agreement, who will offer to meet with the designated senior representative of the other Party for the purpose of attempting to resolve the dispute amicably.

 

  (ii) The appointed representatives will meet promptly to discuss the dispute and attempt to resolve it without the necessity of any formal proceeding. They will meet as often as the Parties deem necessary in order that each Party may be fully advised of the other’s position. During the course of discussion, all reasonable requests made by one Party to the other for non-privileged information reasonably related to the matters in dispute will be honored promptly.

 

  (iii) The specific format for the discussions will be left to the discretion of the appointed representatives.

 

  (b) Formal dispute resolution may be commenced by a Party upon the first to occur of any of the following:

 

  (i) the appointed representatives conclude in good faith that amicable resolution of the dispute through continued negotiation does not appear likely;

 

General Terms and Conditions-    86    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (ii) thirty-five (35) days have passed from the Dispute Date (this period will be deemed to run notwithstanding any claim that the process described in this Section 26.1 (Informal Dispute Resolution) was not followed or completed); or

 

  (iii) commencement of formal dispute resolution is deemed appropriate by a Party to avoid the expiration of an applicable limitations period or to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors, or a Party makes a good faith determination, including as provided in Section 26.4 (Equitable Remedies), that a breach of this Agreement by the other Party is such that a temporary restraining order or other injunctive or conservatory relief is necessary.

 

  26.2 Litigation

For all litigation which may arise with respect this Agreement, the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submit (a) to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue (and waive any claim of forum non conveniens and any objections as to laying of venue) of the United States District Court for the Central District of California, or (b) if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, to the Superior Court of the State of California, Los Angeles County in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Parties further consent to the jurisdiction of any state court located within a district that encompasses assets of a Party against which a judgment has been rendered for the enforcement of such judgment or award against the assets of such Party.

 

  26.3 Continued Performance

Each Party agrees (a) to continue performing its obligations under this Agreement while a dispute is being resolved except (and then only) to the extent performance is prevented by the other Party or the issue in dispute precludes performance, and (b) not to take any action that intentionally obstructs, delays, or reduces in any way the performance of such obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a good faith dispute regarding invoiced charges and Health Net’s withholding payment of disputed charges as permitted under this Agreement will not be considered to prevent Supplier from performing the Services or preclude performance by Supplier, nor will this Section 26.3 be interpreted to limit either Party’s right to terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 16 (Termination).

 

  26.4 Equitable Remedies

Each Party acknowledges that a breach of any of its obligations under the Sections of this Agreement listed below, or its infringement or misappropriation of any Intellectual Property Rights of the other Party, may irreparably harm the other Party in a way that could not be adequately compensated by money damages. In such a circumstance, the aggrieved Party may (in addition to all other remedies and rights) proceed directly to court notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 26 (Dispute Resolution). The following Sections are subject to this paragraph:

Section 14 (Data Security and Protection), Section 15 (Intellectual Property Rights), Section 16 (Termination), Section 21 (Confidentiality) and Section 24 (Indemnification);

 

  26.5 Waiver of Jury Trial

In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a consent to a trial by the court.

TO THE EXTANT THAT ANY ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LICENSE GRANTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS UNCLEAR OR DISPUTED BY THE PARTIES AND UCITA, IF APPLIED, WOULD CLARIFY SUCH LICENSE OR RESOLVE SUCH DISPUTE, THE PARTIES AGREE TO CLARIFY SUCH LICENSE OR RESOLVE SUCH DISPUTE INDEPENDENTLY OF UCITA BY APPLYING THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES AT THE TIME THAT THEY ENTERED THIS AGREEMENT.

Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 27.1 will be void and will constitute a material breach of this Agreement by the Party attempting the assignment.

  (g) Partial Responsibility. For any particular (i) Managed Third Party or (ii) service provided by a Managed Third Party, Health Net may require that Supplier perform only a subset of the responsibilities required under this Section 1.6, as opposed to all of the responsibilities required hereunder.

4. SERVICE LEVEL METHODOLOGY.

 

  4.1 General.

 

  (a) Upon Health Net’s reasonable request, Supplier shall provide, and Health Net will have access to, Service Level information as reasonably requested by Health Net to verify the accuracy of Service Level measurements and methodology described in this Section 4. Service Levels constitute one means, but not the exclusive means, of measuring Supplier’s performance of its commitment under Section 5.4 of the General Terms and Conditions.

 

  (b) If a Service Level includes multiple conditions or components (e.g., components (a), (b) and(c)), then Supplier’s performance must satisfy each and every condition or component (i.e., components (a), (b) and (c)) to achieve the corresponding Service Level.

 

  (c) If any event during the Term requires Supplier to provide any portion of the Services from a Supplier business continuity recovery environment (“Recovery Environment”) then once the Services have been restored as required by the RTO timeframes set forth in Section 2.23 of Schedule A, the Service Levels shall continue to apply.

 

  4.2 Service Level Codes.

For each of the Service Levels set forth in Exhibit B-1, a corresponding code has been designated in the “Code” column of the applicable table, as follows:

 

  (a) Code “A”: For each Service Level metric for which “A” is designated as the applicable code, Supplier shall meet or exceed the corresponding Service Level and pay applicable Critical Service Level Credits for any Service Level Failures as soon as Affected Employees are transitioned to Supplier, but in no event later than *** days after the Effective Date (“Code A”).

 

  (b) Code “B”: For each Service Level metric for which “B” is designated as the applicable code, Supplier shall begin to meet the corresponding Service Level and pay applicable Critical Service Level Credits for any Service Level Failures as of the date provided in Exhibit B-1 in the column entitled “Service Level Commencement Date.” (“Code B”)

 

  (c) Code “C”: For each Service Level metric for which “C” is designated as the applicable code, Supplier shall begin to measure the corresponding Service Level as Affected Employees are transitioned to Supplier, but in no event later than *** days after the Effective Date and the following shall apply (“Code C”):

 

  (i) The “Baselining Period” for such metric shall mean the six (6) month period following Suppliers commencement of measurement as required by Section 4.4(c).

 

 

(ii)

Immediately following the Baselining Period and not later than the eighth (8th) month after the Effective Date, a Service Level will be

 

Schedule B    B - 6    Health Net IBM / Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

established, which will be no less than *** of the arithmetic mean of the baselined data collected during the Baselining Period, provided that if there is a significant deviation and the Parties mutually agree, the Parties may agree to establish a different Service Level metric or disregard the deviant measure(s) and continue to baseline for an additional period to be mutually agreed upon; provided further that if the baselined data demonstrates performance that is unsatisfactory to Health Net, Supplier will develop a plan to improve performance and the Parties will meet to establish a mutually agreeable Service Level. Supplier shall use all Commercially Reasonable Efforts to achieve the highest possible Service Levels during the Baselining Period.

 

 

(iii)

Immediately following the Baselining Period and not later than the eighth (8th) month after the Effective Date, Supplier shall meet or exceed the established Critical Service Level and pay applicable Service Level Credits for any Service Level Failures associated with such Critical Service Levels.

 

  4.3 Failure to Perform.

 

  (a) For each Service Level Failure, Supplier shall (i) investigate, assemble and preserve pertinent information with respect to, and report on the causes of, the problem, including performing a root cause analysis of the problem; (ii) advise Health Net, as and to the extent requested by Health Net, of the status of remedial efforts being undertaken with respect to such problem; (iii) minimize the impact of and correct the problem and begin meeting the Service Level; and (iv) take appropriate preventive measures and use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prevent reoccurrence of such problem in a timely matter and in no event longer than thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event.

 

  (b)

Supplier recognizes that a Critical Service Level Failure may have a material adverse impact on the business and operations of Health Net and that the damage from such Critical Service Level Failure is not susceptible to precise determination. Accordingly, in the event of a Critical Service Level Failure for reasons other than (i) the wrongful actions of Health Net, Health Net’s Affiliates or Health Net’s third party contractors (other than Supplier or Supplier’s subcontractors), provided that Supplier has fulfilled the obligations set forth in Section 8.3 of the General Terms and Conditions; or (ii) a Force Majeure Event under Section 24.3 of the General Terms and Conditions, provided that Supplier has fulfilled the obligations set forth in Section 24.3(b) of the General Terms and Conditions, then in addition to any non-monetary remedies available to Health Net under this Agreement, at law or in equity, Health Net may elect in lieu of pursuing other monetary remedies to recover as its sole and exclusive monetary remedy for such Critical Service Level Failure a credit calculated pursuant to Section 4.4 of this Schedule B as liquidated damages (each such credit, a “Service Level Credit”). Health Net may, in the alternative, either before or after receiving any particular Service Level Credit, make a claim for damages against Supplier arising out of Supplier’s failure to meet the applicable Critical Service Level; provided, however, that if Health Net had previously received any Service Level Credits as a result of such failure, then the amount of damages then recoverable by Health Net shall equal (A) the total amount of damages then recoverable under this Agreement and

 

Schedule B    B - 7    Health Net IBM / Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

incurred by Health Net with respect to such failure, without consideration of whether any Service Level Credits related to such failure had been provided to Health Net; less (B) any Service Level Credits previously provided to Health Net with respect to such failure. This Section 4.3(b) shall not limit Health Net’s rights with respect to the events upon which Health Net may rely as a basis for Health Net’s termination of this Agreement for cause.

 

  4.4 Service Level Credits.

 

  (a) Calculation. For each Critical Service Level Failure, the applicable Service Level Credit referenced in Section 4.3(b) above shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

Service Level Credit = A x B

Where:

A = the applicable Weighting Factor; multiplied by

B = the Amount at Risk for such calendar month.

For Example; assume:

For example, assume that Supplier’s Charges for the month were $100,000. Additionally, assume the applicable Weighting Factor allocated by Health Net to such Service Level is *** percentage points. The Service Level Credit due to Health Net for such Critical Service Level Failure would be computed as follows:

A = ***%; multiplied by

B = ***(which is ***%) of $100,000),

= ***(the amount of the Service Level Credit).

 

  (b) Notification. For each Critical Service Level Failure, Supplier shall report such failure to Health Net pursuant to Section 17.3(b) of the General Terms and Conditions and Section 3.3 of this Schedule B. Such report will, at a minimum, (i) identify and describe as a “Critical Service Level Failure” such Critical Service Level Failure, and (ii) calculate the amount of the corresponding Service Level Credit, calculated pursuant to Section 4.4(a) of this Schedule B, that Health Net may elect pursuant to Section 4.3(b) of this Schedule B.

 

  (c) Limitations.

 

  (i) In no event shall the sum of the Weighting Factors for all Critical Service Levels exceed the Pool Percentage Available for Allocation.

 

  (ii) In no event shall the Weighting Factor percentage points for an individual Service Level be less than *** or exceed *** percentage points of the Pool Percentage Available for Allocation.

 

Schedule B    B - 8    Health Net IBM / Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (iii) Not withstanding Section 4.4(c)(ii) above, in no event shall the following Critical Service Levels receive a Weighting Factor in excess of *** percentage points of the Pool Percentage Available for Allocation;

 

  (A) Critical Service Level 1: Annual Customer Satisfaction Survey;

 

  (B) Critical Service Level 2: End User Services, and

 

  (C) Critical Service Level 3: Help Desk Satisfaction Surveys.

 

  (iv) In no event shall the total amount of Service Level Credits payable by Supplier for Critical Service Level Failures occurring during a calendar month exceed the Amount at Risk for such calendar month.

 

  (v) If a single incident results in the failure of Supplier to meet more than one Critical Service Level, Health Net shall have the right to determine which Critical Service Level and resulting Service Level Credit will apply (for example, if a system for which there is a System Availability Critical Service Level is unavailable and an application operating on the affected system is also unavailable as a result and for which there is an Application Availability Critical Service Level, Health Net shall have the right to elect to receive the Service Level Credit associated with the System Availability Critical Service Level or Application Availability Critical Service Level, but not both). In order for the foregoing to apply, Supplier shall have the burden of demonstrating to Health Net’s reasonable satisfaction, that a single event resulted in the failure of Supplier to meet more than one (1) Critical Service Level.

 

5. MODIFICATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS TO SERVICE LEVELS.

 

  5.1 Deletions of Service Levels.

Health Net may at any time during the Term, in its sole discretion upon written notice to Supplier, delete a then-existing Service Level.

 

  5.2 Additions of Service Levels.

Health Net may, in its sole discretion upon written notice to Supplier, add a new Service Level. Any additions with respect to Service Levels measuring then-current Services shall be subject to the following:

 

  (a) If Health Net adds a new Service Level for which there is at least six (6) months of historical data within the past twelve (12) months and such data indicates performance that is acceptable to Health Net, then the Service Level metric shall be ***% of the arithmetic mean of the most recent six (6) months of historical data, provided that if there is a significant deviation and the Parties mutually agree, the Parties may agree to establish a different Service Level metric or disregard the deviant measure(s) and continue to baseline for an additional period to be mutually agreed upon. For example, ***. Such Service Level shall become effective as of a date determined by Health Net, but no earlier than thirty (30) days after written notice from Health Net.

 

Schedule B    B - 9    Health Net IBM / Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

  (b) If Health Net adds a new Service Level for which at least six (6) months of historical data within the past twelve (12) months does not exist, then such Service Level shall be baselined in accordance with the following:

 

  (i) Supplier and Health Net shall promptly meet to mutually agree upon the tools and procedures to be used to measure such new Service Level. Upon such agreement, Supplier shall promptly implement such agreed upon tools and/or procedures and begin measuring the new Service Level.

 

  (ii) The “Baselining Period” for each such Service Level shall begin on the first day of the calendar month following the date upon which Supplier is capable of beginning to measure such Service Level using the agreed upon tools and procedures, and continue for six (6) months. Health Net, acting in its sole discretion, may extend the Baselining Period by informing Supplier of such extension.

 

  (iii) Supplier shall begin to measure its performance against each such Service Level commencing on the start date of the relevant Baselining Period, and shall report on its performance with respect to each such Service Level in each of the Monthly Performance Reports covering Supplier’s performance during the Baselining Period.

 

  (iv) Each such Service Level shall become effective as of the expiration of such Baselining Period, and the corresponding Service Level metric shall be determined in accordance with Section 5.2(a).

 

  (c) If the addition of a new Service Level in accordance with this Section 5.2 results in additional out-of-pocket expenses to Supplier in order to measure such new Service Level, then Health Net shall reimburse Supplier for any such expenses, (i) so long as Supplier informs Health Net of the amount of such expenses reasonably in advance of incurring them, and (ii) provided that Health Net may determine not to add the applicable Service Level in order to avoid such reimbursement obligation.

 

  5.3 Designation of Critical Service Levels and Weighting Factors.

 

  (a) Critical Service Levels.

 

  (i) As of the Effective Date, the Critical Service Levels are designated by the letter “Y” appearing in the corresponding “Critical Service Level” column in Exhibit B-1.

 

  (ii) Health Net may from time to time during the Term change, in its sole discretion, the designation of any Service Level to a Critical Service Level, or change the designation of any Critical Service Level to a non-Critical Service Level, each upon written notice to Supplier from Health Net; provided, however, that Health Net may provide only one such notice during any calendar *** (which notice may contain multiple changes). For clarity, the changes contemplated in this Section shall be accomplished by changing Weighting Factors, as set forth in the next Section.

 

Schedule B    B - 10    Health Net IBM / Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

(iii)

Supplier shall implement such changes described in this Section 5.3(a) not later than the first (1st) day of the calendar month following forty-five (45) days written notice from Health Net.

 

  (b) Weighting Factors. Health Net may from time to time during the Term change, in its sole discretion, the Weighting Factor for any one or more Critical Service Levels upon written notice to Supplier; provided, however, that:

 

  (i) Health Net may provide only one such notice during any calendar *** (which notice may contain multiple changes);

 

  (ii) the sum of the Weighting Factors for all Critical Service Levels shall not exceed the Pool Percentage Available for Allocation; and

 

  (iii) the Weighting Factor for any single Service Level may not be less than *** or exceed *** percentage points.

 

  5.4 Continuous Improvement.

The Parties agree to the concept of continuous improvement of Service Levels and that the Service Levels may be modified during the Term to reflect this concept. To accomplish this, beginning twelve (12) months after the Effective Date (the “Service Level Improvement Date”) and on each anniversary of the Service Level Improvement Date, at Health Net’s request the Service Levels shall be adjusted by an amount equal to *** of the difference between the then-current Service Levels and Supplier’s actual performance, as defined below, for such Service Levels). As used in this Section 5.4, “Supplier’s actual performance” means the monthly average of the performance achieved by Supplier during the immediately preceding twelve (12) month period. In no event shall an adjustment pursuant to this Section result in a Service Level that is not as favorable to Health Net as the Service Level was prior to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Continuous Improvement shall not apply to the following Service Levels;

 

  (a) Service Level 17: Response Time, Help Desk Average Time to Answer, and

 

  (b) Service Level 19: Response Time, Help Desk Average Call Abandonment Rate.

 

  5.5 Annual Meeting to adjust Service Levels.

Subject to Section 5.4, Health Net and Supplier will meet to review the Service Levels on an annual basis to discuss the Service Levels and will make adjustments to the Service Levels as mutually agreed to reflect improved performance capabilities associated with advances in technology, processes, methods and tools. As new technologies, processes methods and tools are introduced, additional Service Levels reflecting industry best practices for those technologies and processes will be established by the Parties in accordance with the Change Control Process.

4. ANNUAL SERVICES CHARGE

This Section 4 describes the Annual Services Charge and the ARC/RRC methodology that shall be used to adjust the Annual Services Charge to account for Resource Unit utilization over or under the Resource Baselines.

 

4.1 Annual Services Charge

(a) The “Resource Baseline” for each Resource Category means the quantity of RUs that as of the Effective Date the Parties anticipate Health Net will utilize each Contract Year within such Resource Category. The Resource Baselines for each Resource Category are set forth in Exhibit C-2. Certain of these Resource Baselines are subject to adjustment as part of the Joint Verification Process described in Exhibit C-10.

(b) The Annual Services Charge set forth in Exhibit C-3 shall fully compensate Supplier for providing and supporting the volume of RUs set forth in the Resource Baselines. If the quantity of RUs consumed by Health Net within any Resource Category in any month is more or less than the quantity of RUs specified in such Resource Baseline, an ARC or RRC, respectively, shall be applicable as provided in Section 4.2, except as provided otherwise for particular Resource Units (e.g., RUs subject to deadbands under Section 4.3) or in particular circumstances (e.g., during Transition as provided in Section 3.2(b)). The ARCs represent compensation for the additional related Services provided. The RRCs represent credits for under-utilization of the related Services.

(c) Beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until the Service Commencement Date, Supplier shall invoice Health Net in accordance with Section 10 of the General Terms and Conditions and Section 4.1(d)(i) and (ii) below for 1/6 of the Transition Period ASC, net of any ARCs and RRCs (subject to Section 3.2(b)).

(d) Beginning after the Effective Date, Supplier shall (in each case in accordance with the payment terms under Section 10 of the General Terms and Conditions):

(i) For the period from the Effective Date to September 30, 2008, create and deliver to Health Net on or before September 10, 2008 an invoice equal to one-sixth (1/6th) of the Transition Period ASC for Contract Year 1 for the September 2008 Services, plus an amount for the partial month of August 2008 equal to 12/31st or 38.7% of the September 2008 Transition Period ASC charge defined above (which fraction and percentage assume an Effective Date of August 19, 2008); and

(ii) For the calendar month of February 2009, given that the period during which the Transition Period ASC is to be charged pursuant to Section 4.1(c) above ends during such month (e.g., February 15th if the Effective Date is August 19th), the invoice for February 2008 shall be calculated as (1) the total Transition Period ASC minus all Transition Period ASC invoiced to Health Net since the Effective Date (for example, ***), plus (2) an amount for the remainder of February 2009 equal to the actual number of days remaining in February divided by twenty-eight (i.e., the number of days in February 2009) times one-twelfth (1/12th) of the ASC for Contract Year 1 (net of any applicable ARCs and RRCs and HSC Adjustments); and thereafter,

(iii) invoice Health Net in accordance with Section 10 of the General Terms and Conditions for 1/12 of the Annual Services Charge for the applicable Contract Year each month, net of any applicable ARCs and RRCs and HSC Adjustments, except for

 

Schedule C    C - 7    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(iv) the final partial month of the Agreement (unless otherwise terminated earlier in accordance with the Agreement) in which case the ASC charge for such month shall be proportionally reduced to reflect only the actual number of days the Services are provided.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, all fees, taxes, and expenses associated with and resulting from the disposal of Health Net Owned Equipment and Health Net Leased Equipment pursuant to Sections 2.25(b) and (c) of Schedule A shall be included the ASC, and Supplier may not charge Health Net any additional amounts for such fees, taxes and expenses provided (1) at the time of disposal Health Net will convey ownership to such Equipment it identifies for disposal to Supplier without any charges, payments or other obligations of Supplier (in which event Supplier shall accept such conveyance), and (2) Supplier is entitled to retain without any obligation to Health Net, any proceeds from Supplier’s subsequent sale (or reduction in disposal fees) related to Health Net Owned Equipment and Health Net Leased Equipment that Health Net conveys to Supplier in advance of disposal of such Equipment.

 

4.2 ARCs/RRCs

In the month immediately following the Effective Date, and each month thereafter, Supplier shall adjust the Annual Services Charges using ARCs and RRCs, as they may apply, to reflect Health Net’s actual usage of Services in accordance with the following:

(a) Supplier shall track the number of RUs actually utilized by Health Net each month within each Resource Category and provide such information with the subsequent month’s invoice.

(b) Except as provided otherwise in this Agreement (e.g., Sections 3.2(b) and 4.3), ARCs and RRCs shall be calculated each month as follows:

(i) If the quantity of RUs consumed by Health Net in a month for a Resource Category is greater than the volume of RUs set forth in the Resource Baseline for such Resource Category and month, then Health Net will be charged an ARC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category in excess of the RUs set forth in the applicable Resource Baseline.

(ii) If the quantity of RUs consumed by Health Net in a month for a Resource Category is less than the volume of RU’s set forth in the Resource Baseline for such Resource Category and month, then Health Net will receive a RRC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the difference between the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category and the RUs set forth in the applicable Resource Baseline.

(c) The ARC/RRC Rates for each Resource Category are set forth in Exhibit C-4.

 

4.3 Deadbands on ARC/RRCs

(a) Help Desk Calls. During the Term, no ARCs or RRCs shall apply within the Help Desk Calls Resource Category during a month unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category varies by more than *** above or below the corresponding Resource Baseline in such month (the “Help Desk Call Deadband”).

(i) If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the Help Desk Calls Resource Category during a month is more than *** above the corresponding Resource Baseline, then Health Net will be charged an ARC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by

 

Schedule C    C - 8    Health Net / IBM Confidential

the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category in excess of the Help Desk Call Deadband.

(ii) If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the Help Desk Calls Resource Category during a month is more than *** below the corresponding Resource Baseline, then Health Net will receive a RRC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category below the Help Desk Call Deadband.

(b) Desktop IMACs. During the Term, no ARCs shall apply within the Desktop IMACs Resource Category during a month unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category varies by more than *** above the corresponding Resource Baseline in such month (“Desktop IMAC ARC Deadband”). If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the Desktop IMACs Resource Category during a month is more than *** above the corresponding Resource Baseline, then Health Net will be charged an ARC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category in excess of the Desktop IMAC ARC Deadband.

(i) No RRCs shall apply within the Desktop IMACs Resource Category during a month unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category is less than the following (“Desktop IMAC RRC Deadband”):

(ii) RRCs are payable in accordance with Section 4.2 for RUs within the Allocated DASD Resource Category below the corresponding Resource Baseline.

(iii) The Parties acknowledge that Health Net has placed a large order for Mainframe Allocated DASD Equipment from a third party prior to the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: (1) the lease for such Equipment shall be classified in the applicable Exhibit to Schedule N as a Managed In ASC contract for which Supplier has Financial Responsibility and (2) the additional Mainframe Gb-month Resource Units added as a result of such new Equipment, whether or not such new Equipment is installed as of the Effective Date, shall not be factored into the DASD Deadband calculation set forth in Section 4.3 (c) above (i.e., they will be charged as ARCs without regard to a DASD Deadband).

(d) SAN/NAS Storage. During the Term, no ARCs shall apply to Charges within the SAN/NAS Storage Resource Category unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category exceeds the greater of (i) *** Gb-months; or (ii) the number of SAN Gb-months in the Resource Baseline for such month (the “SAN Storage Deadband”).

(i) If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the SAN Storage Resource Category during a month exceeds the SAN Storage Deadband, then Health Net will be charged an ARC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the number of SAN Gb-months actually used by Health Net in excess of the SAN Storage Deadband.

(ii) RRCs are payable in accordance with Section 4.2 for RUs within the SAN Storage Resource Category below the corresponding Resource Baseline.

(e) Wintel System Images. During the Term, no RRCs shall apply within the Wintel System Image Resource Category during a month unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category is *** Wintel System Images (“Wintel System Image Deadband”). If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the Wintel System Image Resource Category during a month is below the corresponding Wintel System Image Deadband, then Health Net will receive a RRC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category below the Wintel System Image Deadband.

(f) Novell Servers. During Contract Year One (1) only, no RRCs shall apply within the Novell Server Resource Category during a month unless Health Net’s actual usage of RUs within such Resource Category is *** Novell Servers (“CY1 Novell Server Deadband”). If Health Net’s actual RU usage within the Novell Server Resource Category during a month is below the corresponding CY1 Novell Server Deadband, then Health Net will receive a RRC equal to the product of the ARC/RRC Rate for such Resource Category multiplied by the number of RUs actually used by Health Net within such Resource Category below the CY1 Novell Server Deadband.

 

4.4 Adjustments to Resource Volumes

(a) In managing its resources, Supplier shall maintain the flexibility to respond to changes in Health Net’s demand for RUs on a day-to-day and month-to-month basis, particularly with respect to those portions of the Services for which Health Net experiences significant variances in demand.

(b) For those RUs where the Charges are based on capacity available to Health Net (e.g., Installed MIPS), or the number of items of Equipment (e.g., number of Desktop Workstations or Laptop Workstations), Supplier shall neither increase nor decrease the volume of RUs without Health Net’s prior

 

Schedule C    C - 10    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

written approval. Health Net shall not be required to pay for any RUs added without its prior written approval.

(c) For those RUs where the Charges are based on the number of items of Equipment (e.g., number of Desktop Workstations and Laptop Workstations), if Health Net requests that Supplier increase or decrease the number of RUs (through the Help Desk or other procedure established by the Parties), ARCs and RRCs shall be payable as follows unless the Parties agree otherwise as part of a Project:

(i) If Health Net notifies Supplier of a desire to remove one or more Resource Units from the scope of Services on or prior to the fifteenth (15th ) day of a month, Supplier shall credit Health Net with the corresponding RRC (or reduction in ARCs) in the current month (retroactive to the first (1st) day of the month). If Health Net notifies Supplier of a desire to remove one or more Resource Units from the scope of Services after the fifteenth (15th ) day of a month, Supplier shall credit Health Net with the corresponding RRC (or reduction in ARCs) beginning on the first (1st) day of the following month.

(ii) If Health Net notifies Supplier of a desire to add one (1) or more Resource Units to the scope of Services, and Supplier installs such new Resource Units on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) day of a month, Supplier shall begin charging Health Net for the corresponding ARC in the current month (retroactive to the first (1st) day of the month). If Health Net notifies Supplier of a desire to add one (1) or more Resource Units to the scope of Services, and Supplier installs such Resource Units after the fifteenth (15th) day of a month, Supplier shall begin charging Health Net for the corresponding ARC on the first (1st) day of the following month.

(iii) If the fifteenth (15th) day of a month is a Saturday, references to such date shall be deemed references to the fourteenth (14th) day of the month; if the fifteenth (15th) day of a month is a Sunday, references to such date shall be deemed references to the sixteenth (16th) day of the month.

(d) For those RUs that are based on available capacity or actual RU utilization by Health Net, ARCs and RRCs shall be determined based on available capacity or actual RU utilization on the last day of the month, unless stated otherwise for particular RUs in Exhibit C-1.

 

4.5 Minimum Commitment

(a) Exhibit C-3 sets forth minimum revenue commitments for each Contract Year of the Term (each a “Minimum Commitment”) for (i) the combined Data Network and Voice Network Service Towers (“Network MRC Towers”) and (ii) all Service Towers other than the Data Network and Voice Network Service Towers (“IT MRC Towers”). If the total Charges payable by Health Net under this Agreement within either the Network MRC Towers or IT MRC Towers are (A) in a month between the Effective Date and the Service Commencement Date, *** of the applicable Minimum Commitment for such period; or (B) in a month after the Service Commencement Date, *** of the applicable Minimum Commitment for the then current Contract Year, as a result of Health Net’s decision to withdraw Services from this Agreement and either perform them itself or use a third party to perform them, then Health Net shall pay Supplier an additional amount equal to the difference between the applicable Minimum Commitment for such month and the total Charges otherwise payable by Health Net within such Network MRC Towers or IT MRC Towers, as applicable, in such month under this Agreement. The Minimum Commitments shall be prorated for partial months and Contract Years (as applicable to the above).

(b) If Health Net terminates a Service Tower pursuant to Section 16 of the General Terms and Conditions, and pays all applicable Termination Charge and Wind Down Costs payable for such termination under Section 10 of this Schedule C, the Minimum Commitment for each Contract Year shall be reduced by an amount proportionate to the percentage of the Annual Services Charge attributable to

the terminated Service Tower for each Contract Year set forth in Exhibit C-3 as of the Effective Date. For example, ***.

 

5. PROJECTS

 

5.1 Project Defined

(a) A “Project” is a work that is: (i) expressly designated as a Project in this Agreement (e.g., In-Flight Projects), or (ii) a discrete unit of non-recurring work outside the scope of Services described in this Agreement that has deliverables and requires startup, planning, execution, and completion. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Service is described in this Agreement (e.g., Equipment Refresh or installation activities), and it is not expressly designated as a Project, then it is not a “Project” for purposes of determining Charges under this Section 5.

(b) A “Project Hour” means a productive hour of Project work for Health Net, as appropriately recorded under Supplier’s labor tracking system, exclusive of nonproductive time, such as holidays, vacation time, sick leave or other personal time off, education, training, general travel, administrative and management time (e.g., Supplier internal meetings not specific to an approved Project, internal reporting, expense accounting), internal Supplier process implementation work, and idle time between projects. Hours spent for transition labor (i.e., skilled personnel brought in by Supplier to mentor Supplier Personnel) shall not be counted as Project Hours.

(c) “Small Project” means a Project that requires *** Project Hours to complete. Supplier’s performance of Small Projects, not to exceed *** Project Hours each month (the monthly “Small Project Hours Cap”), is included in the Annual Services Charge and shall not count toward the Baseline Project Pool. Project Hours incurred performing additional Small Projects above the Small Projects Hours Cap in any month during the Term shall count toward the Baseline Project Pool. Supplier shall manage Small Projects so as not to impact delivery of Services.

 

5.2 Baseline Project Pool

(a) The ASC includes a baseline of *** Project Hours that Supplier shall perform each Contract Year in connection with Projects requested by Health Net (“Baseline Project Pool”).

(b) Supplier shall perform Projects at no additional charge for Supplier Personnel so long as:

(i) during any Contract Year the total Project Hours do not exceed *** Project Hours (i.e., ***);

(ii) during any month the Project Hours do not exceed *** Project Hours;

(iii) the skills required for completion of the Projects are skills (A) required to perform Services under this Agreement or (B) covered by a T&M Rate category set forth in Exhibit C-5; and

(iv) the volume of network and non-network Project Hours applied against the Baseline Project Pool approximates the ratio of Supplier Personnel assigned between the Network MRC Towers and the IT MRC Towers (i.e., *** of Project Hours in the Baseline Project Pool should be applied toward network-related Projects).

 

Schedule C    C - 12    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(c) If at Health Net’s request Supplier performs Projects in excess of the Baseline Project Pool thresholds provided in Section 5.2(b), the excess Project Hours shall be separately chargeable at the T&M Rates set forth in Exhibit C-5. Health Net and Supplier shall each use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to manage and coordinate Projects so that additional Charges incurred by Health Net are minimized.

(d) If in any quarter of a Contract Year Health Net does not use at least *** Project Hours, Supplier shall provide Health Net with a credit in the following month against the Annual Services Charge calculated as follows: [(*** Project Hours – the actual number of Project Hours used by Health Net in the quarter) * ***], subject to the following:

(i) No later than ten (10) days prior to the beginning of each month the Parties shall review the Health Net Project Pipeline to assess whether it contains a volume of Projects sufficient to utilize at least *** Project Hours in such month.

(ii) If the criteria in item (i) above is not met in a month, and in such month Health Net actually utilizes less than *** Project Hours, then the “***” number in the formula above for purposes of calculating credits at the end of a quarter shall be reduced by the difference between (A) *** Project Hours and (B) the greater of the actual number of Project Hours used in such month and the estimated Project Hours required to perform the Projects in the Health Net Project Pipeline for such month.

(iii) If Health Net suspends a Project for which a Work Order has been executed for more than five (5) Business Days, or significantly reduces the scope of a Project for which a Work Order has been executed in a month, and Supplier is unable to redeploy the resources assigned to such Project to another Project in the Health Net Project Pipeline, then the hours forecasted for such month for such delayed or reduced Project shall be deducted from the “***” number in the formula above for purposes of calculating credits at the end of a quarter.

(iv) Project Hours for which a credit was made to Health Net in accordance with this Section 5.2(d) shall be deducted from the annual Project Hours available in the Baseline Project Amount.

(v) “Health Net Project Pipeline” means all Projects: (A) that are in-progress or for which a Work Order has been executed; or (B) for which Health Net has provided Supplier with a Project Brief (defined in Exhibit A-10).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to all or any portion of a Project (whether or not in excess of the Baseline Project Pool), Health Net may request that Supplier use existing resources who would otherwise be available to provide Services hereunder to perform the Project without deduction from the Baseline Project Pool or additional charge, provided that Supplier will be excused from the Service Levels applicable to the Services from which the existing resources were displaced, and further provided that Supplier continues to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to provide the Services in accordance with this Agreement without the use of the redirected resources. The Parties shall mutually agree as to which existing resources should be reallocated to performance of the Project.

(f) The Baseline Project Pool shall apply beginning on the Service Commencement Date. Prior to the Service Commencement Date, Supplier shall not charge Health Net for Project Hours worked by Transferred Employees, but shall be allowed to charge for incremental Supplier Personnel required during such period to perform Projects that Health requests that cannot be performed by Transferred Employees.

(a) “Capital Expenditures” means, with respect to any month of the Term, the sum of the Equipment suppliers’ charges for HSC Equipment (including all associated peripheral equipment), operating system Software (when procured from the Equipment supplier with the Equipment), applicable sales and use taxes (but excluding personal property taxes), freight and, if applicable, the original equipment manufacturers’ integration charges for such month.

(b) “Maintenance Charge” means, with respect to any month of the Term, the sum of the Equipment suppliers’ charges for maintenance of the HSC Equipment (if any).

(c) “Actual HSC Expenditures” means the monthly charges for HSC Equipment acquisition and maintenance in a given month. The Actual HSC Expenditures for each item of HSC Equipment will equal the following beginning on the date of acquisition:

Actual HSC Expenditure = [P * [(i/12*(1+i/12)n)/((1+(i/12))n -1)] * 1.03] + [(xx/12) * 0.5P] + M

Where:

P = the Capital Expenditures for that month;

M = the Maintenance Charge for that month;

“i” equals the Base Lease Interest Rate determined by the following:

(i) where n = 60 months, the “Base Lease Interest Rate” shall be ***%, included in which is a “Swap Rate/Initial Index Rate” equal to ***%. The Base Lease Interest Rate shall be adjusted prior to the beginning of each calendar quarter by the difference between the Swap Rate/Initial Index Rate and the average of the weekly two and three year swap rates published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week preceding the Monday closest to 40 days prior to the start of the next calendar quarter, and

(ii) where n = 48 months, the Base Lease Interest Rate shall be ***%, included in which is a Swap Rate/Initial Index Rate” equal to ***%. The Base Lease Rates shall be adjusted prior to the beginning of each calendar quarter by the difference between the Swap Rate/Initial Index Rate and the average of the weekly two year swap rates published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week preceding the Monday closest to 40 days prior to the start of the next calendar quarter.

Swap rates are published in Statistical Release H.15 and can be accessed via the Federal Reserve Board internet website.

“xx” is the personal property tax rate at time of purchase;

“n” is the number of months in the applicable lease term; and

“1.03” is percentage charged above *** for all HSC Equipment purchased through Supplier (i.e., *** Supplier procurement and administration).

 

Schedule C    C - 15    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(d) Expenditures related to Equipment within the Server Services Tower that is included in Health Net’s environment as of the Effective Date (including VMS Equipment leases) are included in the ASC and shall not be considered Actual HSC Expenditures.

 

6.4 Charges Following Expiration of Lease Term

There shall be no minimum or maximum period of installation for HSC Equipment. If HSC Equipment is not Refreshed or removed from Health Net’s environment at the end of the applicable lease term, Health Net shall continue to pay Supplier for direct personal property taxes assessed upon Supplier for such HSC Equipment and additional Maintenance Charges (if any) until such HSC Equipment is Refreshed or removed. Any such personal property taxes and Maintenance Charges paid by Supplier in a month shall be deemed Actual HSC Expenditures in such month. Subject to the preceding sentences in this Section 6.4, Health Net shall have no further Actual HSC Expenditures for any HSC Equipment not Refreshed or removed from Health Net’s environment at the end of the applicable lease term.

 

6.5 Removal of HSC Equipment

Supplier shall remove HSC Equipment in a timely manner after receipt of a request for removal from Health Net in accordance with Section 4.4(c) of Schedule C. If Health Net requests removal of HSC Equipment prior to expiration of the applicable lease term, Supplier shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to re-deploy such HSC Equipment within Health Net or Supplier. If redeployment is not possible, the Parties shall allocate responsibility for any remaining Actual HSC Expenditures for that HSC Equipment as follows:

(a) Each month Supplier shall determine:

(i) the sum of the Actual HSC Expenditures, for the remaining lease terms, for any HSC Equipment that Health Net removes in that month and that cannot be redeployed within Health Net or Supplier (“Stranded HSC Costs”); and

(ii) the sum of the Actual HSC Expenditures, for the remaining lease terms, for all HSC Equipment in Health Net’s environment that month (including the removed HSC Equipment) (“Remaining HSC Expenditures”).

Example #1: assume Health Net has 10 servers, and that 5 of those servers have Actual HSC Expenditures of $100/month and remaining lease terms of 15 months (group A) and the other 5 have Actual HSC Expenditures of $200 and remaining lease terms of 10 months (group B). If Health Net removes 1 server from Group A and 1 from Group B and Supplier is unable to redeploy such servers, the Stranded Lease Costs would be $***].

(b) If in a given month the Stranded HSC Costs are *** the Remaining HSC Expenditures (“***”), Supplier shall be responsible for such Stranded HSC Costs (and the costs associated with the removed HSC Equipment shall no longer be considered Actual HSC Expenditures).

(c) If in a given month the Stranded HSC Costs are more than the ***:

(i) Supplier shall be responsible for such Stranded HSC Costs up to the *** (and the costs associated with the removed HSC Equipment shall no longer be considered Actual HSC Expenditures); and

 

Schedule C    C - 16    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(ii) Health Net shall be responsible for such Standard HSC Costs in excess of the ***. Health Net may elect to continue paying the monthly Actual HSC Expenditures for such Stranded HSC Costs or direct Supplier to exercise any buy-out or termination rights and reimburse Supplier for the associated costs. If Health Net elects to continue paying the monthly Actual HSC Expenditures, Supplier shall store the corresponding Equipment until it can be redeployed on the Health Net account or Health Net directs otherwise. If Health Net directs Supplier to buy-out Equipment and reimburses it for the cost as provided above, upon request from Health Net, Supplier shall transfer ownership of such Equipment to Health Net at no additional charge.

Example #2: Assuming the same facts as Example #1 above, ***% of the Remaining HSC Expenditures is $1,750 and the Stranded HSC Costs are $3,500. Supplier would be responsible for $*** of such costs; Health Net would be responsible for the remaining $***.

(d) The calculations described above in this Section 6.5 shall be made each month (i.e., the Remaining HSC Expenditures and the *** will be determined without taking into account Stranded HSC Costs and HSC Equipment removed from Health Net’s environment in prior months).

 

6.6 Server Refresh

Exhibit A-1 sets forth a Refresh schedule for Equipment within the Server Services category. If Health Net (a) directs Supplier to delay the Refresh of Server Equipment and (b) is unable or unwilling to purchase hardware maintenance for such Server Equipment, and as a result Supplier is reasonably likely to have difficulty meeting applicable Service Levels covering such Server Equipment, then Supplier shall so notify Health Net. If after receiving such notice Health Net does not authorize Supplier to Refresh or purchase hardware maintenance (if available) for such Server Equipment, then Supplier shall be excused from the requirement to meet applicable Service Levels for such Server Equipment solely to the extent such Service Levels are affected by the Server Equipment’s performance failure (i.e., not due to Supplier’s performance of or failure to perform the Services).

 

6.7 Procurement Process

(a) Supplier shall use all Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain the best price available for HSC Equipment, including by leveraging Supplier enterprise and alliance agreements and obtaining bids from multiple suppliers for orders of multiple items.

(b) If Health Net is able to obtain and make available to Supplier commercial prices or terms and conditions for HSC Equipment that are more favorable than those commercial prices or terms and conditions offered by Supplier, Supplier will procure the applicable HSC Equipment using Health Net’s more favorable prices or terms and conditions. Health Net must notify Supplier in writing in advance of the placement of any order (provided the order has been previously approved by Health Net) for which Health Net directs Supplier to use Health Net’s more favorable prices or terms and conditions. Alternatively, Health Net may elect to lease such HSC Equipment directly from a third party. In the latter case, at Health Net’s option, the leases Health Net executes will be categorized as Managed In ASC or Managed As Pass-Through contracts, subject to any limitations in such leases.

8. ADJUSTMENTS TO CHARGES

 

8.1 Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA)

(a) Each calendar year beginning January 1, 2010 Supplier shall have the right to increase (i) the Annual Services Charge, (ii) the ARC/RRC Rates, and (iii) the T&M Rates (collectively, the “Adjustable Charges”) using the Inflation Factor defined below (each adjustment, a “COLA”). Supplier shall not increase the Adjustable Charges prior to January 1, 2010.

(b) Subject to Section 8.1(d) below, the “Inflation Factor” for each calendar year beginning in 2010 shall be equal to *** times the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index (rounded to two digits to the right of the decimal point) from December 31, 2008 (the “Base Year Index”) to December 31 of the year immediately preceding the year in which the COLA is to be made. If the Inflation Factor is a negative number, no adjustment shall be made. In calculating adjustments hereunder, the Inflation Factor shall be applied to the Adjustable Charges as set forth in this Agreement on the Effective Date.

 

Schedule C    C - 18    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

Example #1 (2010 Adjustment): ***.

Example #2 (2011 Adjustment): ***.

(c) If the Parties add a New Service or new Service Tower or additional Charges through the Change Control Process to this Agreement after the Effective Date that is subject to a COLA, (i) the COLA shall be made using the formula above and (ii) the Base Year Index shall equal the Consumer Price Index existing on the last day of the month in which such New Service or new Service Tower was added, unless the Parties specify otherwise in the applicable amendment or other contract document adding such New Service or new Service Tower.

(d) The inflation sensitivity percentage applied to the Consumer Price Index (i.e., ***%) to determine the Inflation Factor in Section 8.1(b) is a blended percentage that assumes all Service Towers in effect as of the Effective Date remain in effect during the Term. If (i) Health Net terminates one or more Service Towers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) the Parties agree to add one or more new Service Towers; or (iii) Health Net declares an Extraordinary Event under Section 8.4, then Supplier shall recalculate the inflation sensitivity percentage based upon the relative Supplier labor component in the Service Towers remaining after one (1) or more of the events in items (i) through (iii) above occurs. Supplier shall present such revised inflation sensitivity percentage to Health Net, together with reasonably detailed supporting data and calculations to enable Health Net to evaluate Supplier’s determination. Upon mutual agreement to the revised percentage, the Parties shall document such revised percentage (which may be lower than or higher than the inflation sensitivity percentage as of the Effective Date or any amended percentage thereafter) in an amendment to this Schedule C. If the Parties are unable to agree on a revised inflation sensitivity percentage after one (1) or more of the events in items (i) through (iii) above occurs, then the revised percentage shall be calculated using the following percentages and the relative value of the ASC for each Service Tower at the time the triggering event occurs.

(i) Cross Tower Services: ***%

(ii) Mainframe and AS400 Services: ***%

(iii) Server Services: ***%

(iv) Help Desk Services: ***%

(v) End User Services: ***%

(vi) Data Network Services: ***%

(vii) Voice Network Services: ***%

(e) If Supplier desires to exercise the right to increase the Adjustable Charges for any year pursuant to this Section 8, it shall give Health Net notice of such estimated COLA increase at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of such year, including detailed calculations and supporting documentation as to the determination of the Inflation Factor and the resulting changes to the Charges for such year. The actual COLA shall be determined in January beginning in 2010 and each year thereafter, and any such COLA increase shall be included in Supplier’s January invoice.

 

Schedule C    C - 19    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(f) “Consumer Price Index” means the unadjusted Consumer Price Index (“CPI-U”), as published in the “Summary Data from the Consumer Price Index News Release” by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, For All Urban Consumers, All Cities Average, All Items, 1982-84 = 100. If the Bureau of Labor Statistics (or its successor agency) stops publishing the CPI-U or substantially changes its content and format, the Parties will substitute another comparable index published at least annually by a mutually agreeable source. If the Bureau of Labor Statistics merely redefines the base year for the CPI from 1982-1984 to another year, the Parties will continue to use the CPI-U, but will convert the base year to the new base year by using an appropriate conversion formula.

(g) The Parties recognize that a hyper-inflationary environment would likely have a negative effect on the value proposition to Health Net of Supplier’s delivery of the Services. If in any year the increase in the CPI-U (measured year by year) is greater than ***%), then, at Health Net’s request, Supplier will create an action plan of potential areas of the Services that could be eliminated or reduced as a means to offset such inflation impact. Upon mutual agreement, the Parties will implement those action plans that may include a reduction in the scope or quantity of the Services, and/or reduced Service Levels to allow Health Net to offset such high inflation environment for the period of time such situation is in effect.

 

8.2 Currency

All Charges in this Agreement are stated in U.S. Dollars, and shall be invoiced by Supplier and paid by Health Net in U.S. Dollars.

 

8.3 Onshore / Offshore Support Models

Exhibit A-3 describes the support model that Supplier intends to utilize to provide Services in support of Health Net’s Tricare contract (“Onshore Support Model”), and any other Services for which Health Net requires a similar support model as a result of regulatory or customer requirements. The ARC/RRC Rates in Exhibit C-4 are blended rates that shall be used to adjust the ASC to account for changes in utilization of Resource Units (e.g., Servers, Help Desk Calls) supported by both Supplier’s standard solution in Exhibit A-3 and Supplier’s Onshore Support Model. For example, if Health Net were to remove 10 Servers requiring an Onshore Support Model and add 15 Servers requiring standard support within the same Server Resource Category, the net impact would be 5 ARCs (i.e., 10 RRCs and 15 ARCs).

 

8.4 Extraordinary Events

(a) An “Extraordinary Event” means (i) a circumstance (or series of related circumstances) in which Health Net’s actual usage of the Services varies or is expected to vary for at least *** consecutive months to the degree that it will increase or decrease a Resource Baseline by more than plus or minus ***%) or (ii) Health Net’s loss, or expected loss, of its Tricare contract with the U.S. Government.

(b) If Health Net notifies Supplier of the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event, subject to Section 8.4(e) below, the Charges and Resource Baselines (including Annual Service Charges and ARCs/RRCs Rates as appropriate) shall be adjusted in accordance with this Section 8.2. Supplier’s adjustment in resources used to provide the Services shall be in accordance with a plan prepared by Supplier and approved by Health Net or, in the absence of such plan, as reasonably requested by Health Net. Only Health Net may declare an Extraordinary Event.

(c) As used in this Agreement, in connection with an Extraordinary Event:

 

Schedule C    C - 20    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

(i) “Targeted Resource Reductions” means those resources no longer required by Supplier to provide the Services.

(ii) “Targeted Cost Reductions” means the costs (including appropriate indirect and overhead costs) and related profit that can be eliminated or reduced as and when the Targeted Resource Reductions are eliminated.

(iii) “Targeted Resource Additions” means those new or modified resources newly required by Supplier to provide the Services.

(iv) “Targeted Cost Increases” means the costs (including appropriate indirect and overhead costs) and a reasonable profit that would be incurred as and when the Targeted Resource Additions are placed in service.

(d) Supplier shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to proceed to eliminate the Targeted Resource Reductions as quickly as feasible and Supplier will proceed to deploy the Targeted Resource Additions as quickly as feasible given Health Net’s requirements. As the Targeted Resource Reductions are eliminated, the Annual Services Charges shall be reduced by the full amount of the Targeted Cost Reductions applicable to Targeted Resource Reductions, and any affected Baselines and ARC/RRC Rates shall be equitably adjusted, as appropriate. As the Targeted Resource Additions are placed into service, the base charges will be increased by the full amount of the Targeted Cost Increases applicable to such Targeted Resource Additions, and any affected baselines and ARC/RRC Rates shall be equitably adjusted, as appropriate.

(e) The Parties initially shall attempt to agree on a reasonable basis upon (i) the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event; (ii) Targeted Resource Reductions, Targeted Cost Reductions, Targeted Resource Additions, and Targeted Cost Increases; and (iii) the appropriate adjustment to Charges and the timing thereof. If within sixty (60) days notice of the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event under this Section 8.2, the Parties have not agreed upon the foregoing, then at the initiative of either Party the issue shall be treated as a dispute under Section 26 of the General Terms and Conditions.

 

8.5 Late Fees

Interest shall accrue on unpaid undisputed Charges in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2 of the General Terms and Conditions.

 

8.6 Service Level Credits

Supplier shall credit any Service Level Credits earned in a month against such subsequent month’s Charges.

 

8.7 Benchmarking

The Charges may be adjusted as and to the extent provided by the benchmarking process described in Section 9.4 of the General Terms and Conditions. In no event will the benchmarking process result in an increase in the Charges.

 

8.8 Substitute Services

Substitute Services” means Services, including New Services, which displace existing Services. In any Supplier proposal for the provision of Substitute Services, Supplier shall specify the reductions, in terms of amounts for each category of Charges, which will be made to Health Net’s recurring Charges under this Schedule C if Supplier deploys the Substitute Services. If Health Net chooses to use Supplier

 

Schedule C    C - 21    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

to implement Supplier’s proposal for the Substitute Services, Supplier shall make the reductions stated in its proposal.

 

8.9 Price Reduction Due to Termination of a Service Tower

If Health Net terminates a particular Service Tower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Annual Services Charge and any other Charges corresponding to such Service Tower shall cease to apply on the effective date of termination, subject to Health Net’s payment obligations for Disengagement Assistance (if any) under Section 16.6(c) of the General Terms and Conditions.

 

8.10 Adjustments due to fact that ASC begins before First Contract Year

The Parties shall make such equitable adjustments as may be necessary so that Health Net receives the benefit of Services covered by the ASC arising out of the fact that Health Net will commence paying the ASC prior to the commencement of the first Contract Year (as set forth in Section 4.1(d)(ii)). For example, the Parties shall make such equitable adjustments as are necessary so that Health Net receives the benefit of Project Hours included within the ASC for the period during which Health Net is paying the ASC prior to the first Contract Year. In addition, the Parties shall make such equitable adjustments as may be necessary arising out of the fact that provisions set forth in this Schedule C which rely on months, quarters and years, may actually be partial months, quarters or years.

(a) If Health Net exercises its option under Section 11.2(b) of the General Terms and Conditions to sell the Health Net Owned Equipment listed in Exhibit N-1 on or after the Effective Date, the purchase price for such Health Net Equipment shall be calculated by adjusting $***, which is the June 15th, 2008 Fair Market Value for such assets, in accordance with Section 11.1(a)(iv) below (as adjusted, the “Asset Purchase Price”). The Asset Purchase Price shall be revised to reflect the Fair Market Value of the Health Net Equipment and to address any change in the list of the Health Net Equipment as follows:

(i) If the Parties determine that equipment designated as Health Net Owned Equipment is Health Net Leased Equipment, then (A) the FMV of such Equipment shall be deducted from the Asset Purchase Price; and (B) the lease for such Equipment shall be classified as a Managed As Pass-Through contract, or retained by Health Net and classified as a Retained contract, and the ASC shall be equitably reduced to reflect the reduction in costs to be incurred by Supplier as a result of the reclassification of such Equipment (e.g., reduced depreciation expense).

(ii) If the Parties determine that equipment designated as Health Net Owned Equipment does not exist, then (A) the FMV of such Equipment shall be deducted from the Asset Purchase Price; and (B) the ASC shall be equitably reduced to reflect the reduction in costs to be incurred by Supplier as a result of the removal of such Equipment (e.g., reduced depreciation expense).

(iii) If the Parties identify equipment owned by Health Net that is either (i) purchased with funds within the ITG Infrastructure Budget; or (ii) purchased by the Health Net ITG but reimbursed by another Health net department or division, then at Health Net’s option, such equipment shall be added to Schedule N as Health Net Owned Equipment and (A) the FMV of such equipment shall be added to the Asset Purchase Price; and (B) the ASC shall be equitably increased to reflect the increase in costs to be incurred by Supplier as a result of the addition of such Equipment (e.g., added depreciation expense).

(iv) In addition to the adjustments specified above, the Parties shall recalculate the actual FMV of the Health Net Owned Assets to be sold to Supplier on the date of sale and adjust the Asset Purchase Price accordingly. In such event, the ASC shall be equitably increased or reduced to reflect the increase or decrease in costs to be incurred by Supplier as a result of such change in the Asset Purchase Price. For example, ***.

(b) All Health Net Owned Equipment that is transferred to Supplier shall be added to Schedule N and classified as Assumed Equipment under Schedule S.

 

Schedule C    C - 26    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

11.2 Reimbursement of Prepayments

Each month Supplier shall issue a credit against the Charges in an amount equal to the amortization of Health Net prepaid amounts (if any) for Equipment, Software, or Third Party Service Contracts for which Supplier assumed Financial Responsibility pursuant to the General Terms and Conditions. Such prepaid amounts shall be calculated and agreed to by the Parties within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Effective Date.

 

12. SYSTEM CHANGE

A “Systems Change” means a material change in the operating environment that Supplier is managing to provide the Services. Each time, if any, that Supplier makes a Systems Change (whether or not such change is initiated by Supplier or requested by Health Net), Supplier shall perform a benchmark comparison, at a reasonable and mutually agreed level of detail, between the amount of billable resource units required by that operating environment to perform a representative sample of the processing then currently being performed for Health Net prior to the Systems Change and immediately after the Systems Change. Health Net shall not be required to pay for increased RU usage due to a Systems Change.

 

13. CONVERSION OF CAPACITY BILLING TO UTILIZATION BILLING

As of the Service Commencement Date, the Installed MIPS Resource Unit is a measure of mainframe capacity available to Health Net (“Capacity Basis”). Upon thirty (30) days notice to Supplier, Health Net may elect to convert from receiving such Services on a Capacity Basis to receiving such Services on a utilization basis (“Utilization Basis”). At any time during the Term after making such election, upon thirty (30) days notice, Health Net may elect to convert back to receiving such Services on a Capacity Basis. Health Net may elect to convert from a Capacity Basis to a Utilization Basis or from a Utilization Basis to a Capacity Basis for Installed MIPS no more than one (1) time during the Term. All conversions made under this Section 13 shall be price neutral to both Parties.

 

14. AVPN

The charges that Health Net pays under this Agreement for the same Services that were being provided by AT&T to Health Net immediately prior to the Effective Date under the AT&T VPN Service – Service Order Attachment between Health Net and AT&T and executed by Health Net on October 15, 2007 (the “AT&T VPN Attachment”), shall not exceed the charges for such services paid by Health Net under the AT&T VPN Attachment immediately prior to the Effective Date.

 

15. NETWORK SERVICES

Supplier shall commence providing the network transport components of the Data Network Services and the Voice Network Services as of the Effective Date, and the charges for such Services during the Transition Period are included in the charges set forth in the “Transition” column of Exhibit C-3 for the Data Network Services and the Voice Network Services, subject to ARC/RRCs as described in Section 3.2(b) of this Schedule C. The Resource Baselines that will be used to compute the ARCs/RRCs, as applicable during the Transition Period, will be the Resource Baselines that are applicable for Contract Year 1 for the Data Network Services and Voce Network Services, which are as set forth in Exhibit C-2.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties are entering into that certain Interim Agreement Regarding AT&T-Health Net Contracts, pursuant to which the Parties and AT&T have agreed to terminate certain Health Net-AT&T contracts (or portions thereof) under which AT&T is providing services that will be provided by Supplier under this Agreement. Pursuant to Section 6 of that Agreement, Supplier agrees to provide a true-up credit to Health Net to reflect any charges that Health Net may overpay as the result of the fact that the applicable AT&T contracts continue beyond the Effective Date. Since Health Net is entitled to the transport rates under this Agreement for the network transport components of the Data Network Services and the Voice Network Services as of the Effective

Date, the Parties agree that such rates under this Agreement in effect as of the Effective Date shall be used in performing such true up and calculating any overpayment by Health Net.

2. TYPES AND AMOUNTS OF COVERAGE

Supplier represents that as of the Effective Date it will have, and agrees that during the Term it will maintain in force, at least the following types and amounts of insurance:

 

  (a) Employer’s Liability Insurance and Worker’s Compensation Insurance, including coverage for occupational injury, illness and disease insurance in accordance with the laws of the country, state or territory exercising jurisdiction over the employee with minimum limits per employee and per event of $1,000,000 or the minimum limit required by law, whichever limit is greater.

 

  (b) Comprehensive General Liability Insurance, including Products, Completed Operations, Premises Operations, Bodily Injury, Personal and Advertising Injury, Broad Form Contractual and Broad Form Property Damage liability coverages, on an occurrence basis, with a minimum combined single limit per occurrence of $7,000,000 and a minimum combined single aggregate limit of $7,000,000. This coverage will name Health Net and its Affiliates as additional insureds.

 

  (c) Property Insurance coverage, for all risks of physical loss of or damage to Health Net business property (i.e., Health Net Equipment and related tangible personal property) that is in the possession, care, custody or control of Supplier pursuant to the Agreement. Such insurance will have a minimum limit adequate to cover risks on a replacement costs basis, and name Health Net and its Affiliates as joint loss payees.

 

  (d) Automotive Liability Insurance covering use of all owned, non-owned and hired automobiles for bodily injury, property damage liability with a minimum combined single limit per accident of $1,000,000 or the minimum limit required by law, whichever limit is greater. This coverage will name Health Net and its Affiliates as additional insureds.

 

  (e) Commercial Crime Insurance, including blanket coverage for Employee Dishonesty and Computer Fraud (as it relates to the theft of tangible property only), for loss or damage arising out of or in connection with any fraudulent or dishonest acts committed by the employees of Supplier, acting alone or in collusion with others, with a minimum limit of $10,000,000 per occurrence.

  (f) Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance covering liability for loss or damage due to an act, error, omission or negligence, with a minimum limit of $1,000,000 per claim and a minimum combined single aggregate limit of $3,000,000.

 

3. TERMS OF COVERAGE

 

  (a)

The insurance coverages described in Section 2(b) and Section 2(d) above will be primary and non-contributory but only with respect to liability arising out of IBM’s

 

Schedule H    H - 2    Health Net / IBM Confidential


Final Execution Version

 

 

negligence and as respects to this contract only. Supplier will be responsible for all deductibles and retentions with regard to such insurance.

 

  (b) Supplier will cause its insurers to issue certificates of insurance evidencing that the coverages and policy endorsements required under this Agreement are maintained in force and that should any of the policies described herein be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the insurer affording coverage will endeavor to mail thirty (30) days written notice to the certificate holder named herein, but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation of liability of any kind upon the insurer affording coverage, its agents or representatives. The insurers (other than captives as related to Supplier’s property coverage set out in Section 2(c) only) selected by Supplier will have an A.M. Best rating of A-, Size VII or better, or, if such ratings are no longer available, with a comparable rating from a recognized insurance rating agency. Supplier will ensure that Approved Subcontractors maintain insurance coverages as described in this Schedule H (for the sake of clarity Approved Subcontractors are not covered under any Supplier insurance coverages).

 

  (c) In the case of loss or damage or other event that requires notice or other action under the terms of any Supplier’s insurance coverage described above as it relates to Health Net property under Supplier’s or the Services, Supplier will be solely responsible for taking such action. To the extent Health Net knows of an event that requires notice or other action by Supplier as it relates to this Agreement, Health Net will endeavor in good faith to notify Supplier. Supplier will provide Health Net with contemporaneous notice and with such other information as Health Net may reasonably request regarding the event.

 

  (d) The Parties do not intend to shift all risk of loss to insurance. Supplier’s obligation to maintain insurance coverage in specified amounts will not act as a limitation on any other liability or obligation which Supplier would otherwise have under the Agreement. Similarly, the naming of Health Net and its Affiliates as additional insureds is not intended to be a limitation of Supplier’s liability under the Agreement and will in no event be deemed to, or serve to, limit Supplier’s liability to Health Net to available insurance coverage or to the policy limits specified in this Schedule H, nor to limit Health Net’s rights to exercise any and all remedies available to Health Net under the Agreement, at law or in equity. The insurance policies referred to hereunder do not increase either Supplier’s obligations to the Health Net under the Agreement (other than Supplier’s obligation to maintain the coverage) or the rights or benefits afforded Health Net in the event of a breach of the Agreement.

 

  (e) Nothing hereunder this Schedule H does not and shall not be construed to expand either Party’s obligations as to any liability for (without limitation) indirect or consequential, exemplary, punitive or special damages unless and as expressly provided under Section 24.2 of the General Terms and Conditions.

Final Execution Version

 

 

Associate materially breaches this Business Associate Addendum; provided that Health Net shall provide such notice not later than six (6) months after Health Net has actual notice of Business Associate’s material breach of this Business Associate Addendum, and further provided that Health Net’s remedies under this Business Associate Addendum and the section(s) of the Current Contract related to termination, if any, shall be cumulative.

 

6. Survival of Terms. The obligations of Business Associate under Sections 2(F), 2(G), 2(H), 2(I) and 2(P) of this Business Associate Addendum shall survive the termination or expiration of the Current Contract.

 

7. Injunctive Relief. Business Associate agrees that the remedies at law for any breach by it of the terms of this Business Associate Addendum may be inadequate and that monetary damages resulting from such breach may not be readily measured. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Business Associate of the terms of this Business Associate Addendum, Health Net shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief. Nothing herein shall prohibit Health Net from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach, and Health Net’s rights under this Business Associate Addendum and the sections of the Current Contract related to injunctive relief, if any, shall be cumulative.

 

8. Amendment of Addendum. In the event of a material change in the HIPAA Regulations or state law affecting safeguards or the use or disclosure of PHI, or amendments for new or changed Standard Transactions or Identifiers, Health Net may amend this Business Associate Addendum and the Current Contract as necessary to comply with the change in the law or regulation and such amendment shall become effective sixty (60) days after receipt by Business Associate, provided any such change shall be subject to the Change Control Process. Health Net’s rights under this Addendum and the section(s) of the Current Contract related to amendments, if any, shall be cumulative.

 

9. Notice of Investigation or Lawsuit and Indemnification. Business Associate shall notify Health Net immediately upon receipt of notice of an investigation or of a lawsuit filed against Business Associate related to or arising from the use or disclosure of PHI by Business Associate pursuant to this Business Associate Addendum.

 

10. Confidentiality. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PHI shall not be included within the definition of “confidential information” in the section(s) of the Current Contract related to protection of confidential information, if any, as Business Associate’s obligations with respect to PHI are set forth in this Business Associate Addendum.

 

11. State Law Requirements. To the extent that state law applicable to Business Associate pursuant to Section 27.5 of the Current Contract is more stringent than the HIPAA Regulations, any safeguard, use or disclosure of PHI by Business Associate shall be made in accordance with such state law.

 

12. Interpretation. Any ambiguity in this Business Associate Addendum shall be resolved in favor of a meaning that permits Health Net to comply with the HIPAA Regulations.

 

13. Effective Date. This Business Associate Addendum shall be effective on the Effective Date of the Current Contract.

3. Phase Out

(a) “Phase Out Assets” means those certain Assets that have a date (e.g., such as “plus 1 from signing” inserted in the column labelled “Phase Out Date” on Schedules I, J or N). Health Net is only obligated to make such Phase Out Assets available to Supplier until the designated phase out date in Schedule I, J or N. After such date, Health Net shall no longer be obligated to make any such Phase Out Assets available to provide the Services subject to 3(b) below.

(b) With respect to such Phase Out Assets that Health Net may discontinue making available as set forth in paragraph (a) above, Supplier shall have the right to request Health Net to continue to make any such Phase Out Asset available to Supplier for the sole purpose of providing Services to Health Net pursuant to this Agreement, by providing not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Health Net prior to such date set forth on Schedule I, J or N (as applicable); provided that (i) upon the date that Health Net would have otherwise been permitted to discontinue making such Phase Out Asset available, such Asset shall be deemed to be Managed In ASC, (ii) at any time after such discontinuance date, if Supplier provides written notice to Health Net requesting Health Net to exercise any termination right with respect to such Phase Out Asset, then Health Net shall exercise such right, provided Supplier shall be responsible for any termination charges or fees associated with such termination if such fees were the direct result of an extension of making such Phase Out Asset available to Supplier, and (iii) if the Phase Out Asset cannot be terminated by the end of the Term, upon the effective date of expiration or termination of the Phase Out Asset contract, Supplier shall issue Health Net a credit equal to the remaining lease, maintenance or other related payments to the licensor, lessor or other third party (as applicable) Health Net actually incurs, on an Out of Pocket Expense basis, in connection with such Asset to the extent Health Net would not have otherwise incurred such Out of Pocket expenses except for the Agreement. Upon request from Supplier, Health Net shall provide Supplier with a copy of the relevant Phase Out Asset contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Health Net elects to use a Phase Out Asset for purposes outside the scope of Services, then the charges for such Phase Out Assets shall be equitably pro rated to account for Supplier’s continued use of the Phase Out Asset to provide Services and Health Net’s use of the Phase Out Asset for such other purposes.

(c) Unless such Phase Out extension is requested by Supplier as set forth in 3(b) above, Supplier shall incur no additional expenses related to Phase Out Assets unless provided for elsewhere under the Agreement, including this Schedule S. For clarity, such Phase Out Assets shall be extended at no cost to Supplier in the event that such extension is a result of a Health Net suspension or other extension of Transformation or Transition pursuant to Section 13.5(b) of the Agreement and not due to a Supplier request.

Helpdesk    Abandoned Call Rate Daily   

The percent of calls that were abandoned. For example, if the caller selects to speak to a help desk rep. and hangs up before the call is answered by the help desk rep., the call is considered as abandoned. It is directly affected by Average Speed to Answer and/or Percent Answered in X Seconds. If a call center is meeting Average Speed to Answer and/or Percent Answered in X Seconds and the service level is reasonably consistent over time, the Abandon Rate is primarily a reflection of the customer’s satisfaction with the contracted level of service, not the delivery of that service.

 

The calculation used to obtain this percentage is:

 

Qty. Abandoned divided by Qty. Received * 100 = % Abandoned

 

Note: Qty. Received = (answered + abandoned)
