You agree to provide the required information to open and maintain a Transact Account and agree to keep such information current.

14. Service Level Terms
The Services shall be available 99.8% of the time, measured monthly, excluding federal holidays and weekends and scheduled maintenance (provided that We give You at least twenty-four (24) hours advance notice). If You request maintenance during these hours, any uptime or downtime calculation will exclude periods affected by such maintenance. Further, any downtime resulting from outages of third party connections or utilities or other reasons beyond InvestNext’s control will also be excluded from any such calculation. Your sole and exclusive remedy, and Our entire liability in connection with Service availability, shall be that for each period of downtime lasting longer than one hour, We will credit You 5% of Service Fees for each period of thirty (30) or more consecutive minutes of downtime; provided that no more than one such credit will accrue per day. Downtime shall begin to accrue as soon as You (with to Us) recognize that downtime is taking place, and continues until the availability of the Services is restored. In order to receive downtime credit, You must notify Us in writing within twenty (24) hours from the time of downtime, and failure to provide such notice will forfeit the right to receive downtime credit. Such credits may not be redeemed for cash and shall not be cumulative beyond a total of credits for one (1) week of Service Fees in any one (1) calendar month in any event. We will only apply a credit to the month in which the incident occurred. Our blocking of data communications or other Service in accordance with its policies shall not be deemed to be a failure of Us to provide adequate service levels under this Agreement.
