4 1. Network Monitoring TECHNICAL SERVICE AGREEMENT SIFY SITECONNECT : DOMESTIC LAYER 2 MPLS VPN SERVICES Sify has a 24x7-support central helpdesk at Chennai, (Sify response time details are defined in Annexure 1) which will provide round-the-clock monitoring, fault reporting and maintenance action of the Sify Network. The helpdesk can be reached by any one of the following modes: Telephone / Availability Support Portal helpdesk@sifycorp.com The Availability between any two-backbone routers across Sify s network, (excluding unavailability due to scheduled maintenance) will be defined as- Availability (in %) = (Total no of Hours in a Quarter Total Outage Hours in a Quarter) x 100% (Total No of Hours in a billing quarter) Service Availability is defined as the uptime of the service provisioning ports of Sify POPs involved in the customers VPN configuration over a billing cycle period. Sify SLA terms for Availability are defined in Annexure 2 - Section 1a. 3. Packet Loss 3.1 Sify s target objective for packet loss across the domestic network of Sify is measured on an average of 5 minute samples of ten (10) ICMP probes of hundred (100) bytes each,. Packet Loss measurement is calculated as an average round-trip packet loss for transmissions between any two-customer provisioned ports on the domestic network of Sify over a billing quarter that will not exceed the committed values 3.2 Sify-confirmed packet loss is the measurement of packet loss attributable to the domestic network of Sify, i.e., from the backbone router of the specified Sify PoP in India to the other specified Sify PoP in India on Sify s domestic network. Sify will not be responsible for packet loss due to congestion on the customer access link. 3.3 Sify will work with the customer to reduce packet loss exceeding the target objective, provided that: - A trouble ticket is filed with Sify - Customer provides Sify with applicable packet loss statistics - Sify can confirm that it has control over the network resources it believes are causing the packet loss. - If insufficient information is provided, Sify reserves the right to close the trouble ticket without further investigation 3.4 Sify will use its best commercial efforts to resolve service problems with customer after the trouble ticket is filed with Sify s Helpdesk within eight (8) hours after the particular incident of service degradation or service outage occurs. Sify will examine its own packet loss data, and will provide applicable diagnostics to customer as part of the trouble ticket resolution process. Sify SLA terms for packet loss are defined in Annexure 2 - Section 1b. 4

5 4. Latency Round trip delay will be measured by computing the average round trip delay for ten (10) ICMP pings of hundred (100) bytes each (ICMP pings are only sent subsequent to an acknowledgment being received for the previous ping). Latency measurement is calculated as an average latency between any two-backbone routers on the domestic network of Sify over a billing quarter that will not exceed the committed values. Sify SLA terms for latency are defined in Annexure 2 - Section 1c. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement (including the enclosures) to be executed by a duly authorized officer in duplicate as of the date first above written.

13 Annexure 3 SLA inclusive of Last miles Note: 1) CE-to-CE Service availability values cannot be measured in the existing layer 2 service link. An additional Management (layer 3) circuit has to be created alongside the layer 2 service on the same last mile for each VPN port upon which probing and SNMP polling are done. Sify cannot commit nor report CE-CE SLA parameters if the Management circuit cannot be created. 2) The SLA commitments on Service Availability mentioned below are subject to a maximum of 75% utilization on the Local Access.

Latency Commitment: Sify guarantees average (in a quarter ) roundtrip latency on the domestic network of Sify of no more than the latency figures in the Annexure 2 - Table A6. Credit: Sify will credit the Customer maximum 1% of the QRC for the affected port(s) if the actual Quarterly average roundtrip latency of the Service exceeds the set out parameters. Note : The aggregated service credit will be maximum 5% of QRC to the Customer. 15
