Part V: Definitions. Part I: Rates and Charges. 1. Details. Customer agrees to pay the monthly recurring charges (“MRC”) and non-recurring charges (“NRC”) for Data Center Interconnection Services as specified in the applicable Service Order. Part II: Service Description and Requirements. 1. Data Center Interconnection Services. Data Center Interconnection Services provides Customer with network connectivity within a Facility operated by Verizon. To use Data Center Interconnection Services, Customer must also contract separately with Verizon for Colocation Services. 2. Carrier Neutrality and Alternate Carriers. Customer may arrange on its own (via separate contract) to bring in additional non-Verizon circuits from a third-party subject to the following conditions: 2.1 The alternate carrier must have an approved existing presence inside the Facility, and Customer must purchase a Verizon provided interconnection (cross connect) to the alternate carrier’s existing presence in Faculty. 2.2 Verizon does not take responsibility for alternate carrier circuits, nor does Verizon make any promises or warranties whatsoever regarding their performance. 2.3 Verizon does not monitor or maintain alternate carrier capacity in the Facility. If Customer is utilizing an alternate carrier in a Verizon data center and such alternate carrier infrastructure requires augmentation, Customer acknowledges that the alternate carrier is responsible for notifying Verizon a minimum of one- hundred and twenty (120) Business Days prior to the desired augment availability. 2.4 Customer may not directly interconnect with any third parties without prior written consent of Verizon. Verizon reserves the right to require that any permitted interconnection with a third party be set forth in separate contract. 2.5 Specific to Signature Data Centers (Including Data Centers on the Alternate Carrier Data Center Exception List). All Signature Data Centers are carrier neutral. 2.6 Specific to Sterling, Advanced and Standard Data Centers (as set forth on the Alternate Carrier Data Center Exception List): 2.6.1 Customer must purchase at least an equal amount of Data Center colocation -related connectivity from Verizon. For example, if Customer wishes to bring in a T-3 circuit from another provider, it must purchase a T-3 or greater circuit from Verizon. Should Verizon determine Customer is purchasing more bandwidth from the alternate carrier, Customer will promptly purchase additional bandwidth from Verizon. Except as set forth herein, Verizon’s Data Centers are not carrier- neutral facilities. Verizon allows alternate carrier access to its Data Center Colocation customers for redundancy purposes only. 2.7 Customer will not be allowed to purchase alternate carrier access if such access requires the alternate carrier to pull fiber to Customer’s cabinet directly. 2.8 Alternate Carrier Data Center Exception List. location CodeSite Site Classification InternetPublic (Yes/No) Exchange Point Services Available (Yes/No) Carrier Neutral (Yes/No) Number of Carriers Sterling Ashburn IAD1 Yes No NO 2 Series Sterling Atlanta ATL1 Yes No No 2 Series DATA CENTER NETWORKING AND CONNECTIVITY + Sterling Carteret EWR1 Yes No NO 2 Series Sterling Doral (Miami) MIA2 Yes No NO 2 Series Sterling Houston IAH1 Yes No NO 2 Series Irving Sterling DFW1 Yes No NO 2 (Dallas) Series Sterling Norcross ATL2 Yes No No 2 Series Sterling Piscataway EWR2 Yes No NO 3 Series Richardson Sterling DFW3 Yes No NO 2 (Dallas) Series San Jose Sterling SJC1 Yes No NO 2 (Fortune) Series Torrance Sterling LAX1 Yes No NO 2 (Los Angeles) Series Sterling Toronto YYZ1 Yes No NO 4 Series Sterling Vancouver YVR1 Yes No NO 4 Series Westmont Sterling ORD1 Yes No NO 2 (Chicago) Series 3. Inter-Connect Cables. Inter-Connects are required for any connection outside of the Customer’s environment. Inter-Connect cables connect Customer’s Colocation Equipment with telecommunications services via a circuit from the patch panel inside the Data Center to the Customer’s cabinet inside the Data Center. The patch panel is the demarcation point (“d-marc”) where Verizon or a third-party carrier terminates its circuit. Various types of Inter-connect cables may be provisioned through Verizon. All Inter-connections relevant to interconnecting the Customer Colocation Equipment with telecommunications services shall be established through Verizon’s common Inter-connect panel in each Facility. Interconnect signal and power cabling between Verizon and Customer will be as designated by Verizon. 4. Customer Communication.

If Customer chooses Exchange Point Services or peering and such services are available at the data center where Customer has Equipment Space, the following shall apply: 5.1 By choosing Exchange Point Services, Customer is requesting the right to establish a Connection. The peering agreements that Customer and any of Verizon’s Other Customers may establish between and among each other are binding on Customer and Verizon’s Other Customers. Verizon will not be party to Customer’s peering agreements with Verizon’s Other Customers and those agreements will not be binding on Verizon. 5.2 Customer must provide Verizon an email address to which Verizon’s Other Customers may send requests for peering. If any of Verizon’s Other Customers, or a potential new Verizon Other Customer, sends Customer a peering request to the email address that the Verizon Other Customer provides for that purpose, Customer must respond to that peering request within five (5) working days. 5.3 Customer may only connect equipment that Customer owns and operates to Verizon’s peering LAN.

Part III: Terms and Conditions. 1. Termination of Service Order. If Customer terminates Data Center Interconnection Services without Cause (as defined in the Agreement), or if Verizon terminates Data Center Interconnection Services due to Customer’s default before the end of the Commitment Period, Customer agrees to pay Verizon a termination liability charge equal to the monthly fees due for the terminated Data Center Interconnection Services multiplied by the number of months left before the end of the Commitment Period for such Data Center Interconnection Services (“Termination Fee”), plus a pro rata portion of any and all credits received by Customer, in addition to all amounts owed for Data Center Interconnection Services already received. The parties acknowledge that this Termination Fee is an estimate of the actual damage that Verizon will suffer and is not a penalty. 2. Prohibited Uses. Customer shall not create or set up a meet-me-point or peering exchange or engage in or provide any services either directly or indirectly related thereto which may compete with similar services provided by Verizon via Verizon’s Peering Fabric or physical or optical interconnect platforms.
