On-Net Service shall be provided by Single Point Global Inc.

Single Point Global’s pricing for Service may be subject to FCC, public service commission or other regulatory approval. Further, Customer represents that its use of Service hereunder will be jurisdictionally interstate.

Once Single Point Global accepts a Sales Order for Service, Single Point Global will invoice Customer for all Custom Installation Fee(s) as identified on a Sales Order. Customer will pay the Custom Installation Fee(s) within thirty (30) days of the invoice date unless a payment schedule is specified in the applicable Sales Order.
Following its acceptance of a Sales Order, Single Point Global shall notify Customer of the Estimated Availability Date applicable to that Sales Order. Single Point Global shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provision the Service on or before the Estimated Availability Date; provided, however, that Single Point Global’s failure to provision by said date shall not constitute a breach of the Agreement.
Single Point Global shall inform Customer when Service is available and performing in accordance with the “Performance Standards” set forth in Schedule A-1 hereto (“Availability Notification”). Charges for Service shall begin to accrue as of the Service Commencement Date. The Service Commencement Date shall be earliest of: (A) the date on which Customer confirms receipt of and concurrence with the Availability Notification; (B) five (5) business days following the date of the Availability Notification, if Customer fails to notify Single Point Global that the Service does not comply materially with the specifications set forth in Schedule A-1 hereto; or (C) the date on which Customer first uses the Service.
7.1 The charges set forth or referenced in each Sales Order have been extended to Customer in reliance on the Service Term set forth therein. To the extent that a Service Term has not been expressly set forth in a Sales Order, the minimum Service Term for Services is thirty-six (36) months.
7.2 Termination Charges for Services.
7.3 Exclusions.

A receipt of the request for termination must be received within the same month for customer to terminate without incurring termination charges.
7.4 Portability. Customer may terminate an existing On-Net Service (an “Existing Service”) and turn up a replacement On-Net Service (i.e., having different termination points on Single Point Global’s network) (a “Replacement Service”) without incurring Termination Charges with respect to the Existing Service, provided that (a) the Replacement Service must have a Service Term equal to or greater than the remaining Service Term of the Existing Service; (b) the Replacement Service must have monthly recurring charges equal to or greater than the monthly recurring charges for the Existing Service; (c) Customer submits a Sales Order to Single Point Global for the Replacement Service within ninety (90) days after termination of the Existing Service and that order is accepted by Single Point Global; (d) Customer reimburses Single Point Global for any and all installation charges that were waived with respect to the Existing Service; and (e) Customer pays the actual costs incurred by Single Point Global in installing and provisioning the Replacement Service.
7.5 Upgrades. Customer may upgrade the speed or capacity of an Existing Service without incurring Termination Charges, provided that (A) the upgraded Service (the “Upgraded Service”) must assume the remaining Service Term of the Existing Service; (B) the Upgraded Service must have the same points of termination on Single Point Global’s network as the Existing Service; (C) Customer submits a Sales Order to Single Point Global for the Upgraded Service and that order is accepted by Single Point Global; (D) Customer pays Single Point Global’s applicable nonrecurring charges for the upgrade; and (E) Customer agrees to pay the applicable monthly recurring charges for the Upgraded Service commencing with the upgrade.
