Basic Data Center Services
Fire Suppression System
- IAFC equipment located at Exodus colocation facility is protected by two
fire fighting systems: Fire Master 200 (FM200) fire suppression system and
a pre-action localized dry pipe sprinkler system. FM200 is
Heptafluorapropane gas, that when released, consumes all the oxygen in the
premise, choking any fire. If the FM200 fails, the heat will melt through
one of the overhead high heat sprinkler heads and will release the pressure
and allow the water to flow. Heat sensors are located above the ceramic
ceiling tiles, at the ceiling surface, and under the raised floor ceramic
tiles to detect over the ceiling, under the raised floor, and surface
fires.
Earthquake Bracing System
- Chattworth racks are bolted to the concrete slab and overhead using ladder
racks that are attached to firewalls. 4" x 4" cable management trays are
attached between racks for additional cable routing, and individual or
redundant electrical circuits can be dedicated to each rack for a/c
protection from adjacent equipment.
Redundant Equipment Air Conditioning
- Exodus provides continuous and redundant air conditioning using 22-ton
air-conditioning units to provide a 68 to 70 Degree F environment for your
machine.
Physical Security
- Access cards and physical keys for the colocation site will be provided to
the authorized IAFC employees for access. The cards will record entry and
exit to the data center and colocation site. In the event IAFC personnel
require access without cards or keys they will require to present
identification and verification against an authorized entry list.
Redundant Power
- Redundant power sources to prevent outages due to electrical outages. The
UPS, which is always configured to provide at least 30 minutes of
uninterrupted power to all data center equipment, is supplied by the
electrical company with a backup feed from a Diesel generator. Immediately
after power failures, the generator kicks to feed to UPS to ensure no
interruption of service occurs. The generator is capable of running 30
hours at a time without refueling. 20 minutes after power failure, three
trucks containing spare parts, additional Diesel, and a spare generator
will arrive to our facility.
<PAGE> 6
Clean Redundant Power
- Your server receives a continuous supply of clean power. The Exodus
redundant power system utilizes and AC-DC-AC conversion process to
eliminate power surges to provide non-stop power. Incoming AC power (480V,
3 Phase), supplied by the Utility, is first converted to DC power (-56V) by
redundant rectifiers. The first conversion process eliminates Utility power
surges and line noise. The DC power is used to directly power DC servers
and to charge a stand-by battery. To meet the needs of AC servers, DC power
is converted to 120V AC, using redundant sign wave inverters. If a power
failure occurs, the stand-by battery immediately (no transfer time)
provides the required power for both DC and AC servers, then a diesel power
generator kicks in automatically. The Exodus redundant power system is
currently capable of providing thirty hours of continuous power during a
major power failure before refueling. The diesel fuel in the generator is
recycled every thirty days, and the zero transfer time switch-over is
tested at the beginning of each month.
Low Level Systems Administration
- IAFC must choose the levels of support that best match the requirements of
IAFC company. In conjunction with our other Internet products and services,
Exodus also offers many different support services to complement your
Internet installation, implementation, and future needs.
The standard 24 x 7 monitoring services include the following: Continuity
between the Exodus network and the client point-of-presence; Newsfeed
updates; POP account administration; router and filter administration;
domain name administration; TCP/IP address assignment; M-Bone tunneling;
and DNS administration.
Optional Service Offerings include: Configuration and on-site installation

PART NUMBER
EXO-MONW 24x7 Network Device Monitoring (per Device)

Under this service offering the Exodus Communications will monitor a
colocation network device using the IP (ICMP) protocol. The monitoring
system uses the Ping utility application to poll the status of the

response from the target node/device, it will then retry pings in
rapid succession over a short period time. If there is still no
response the monitoring system will then page personnel in the Network
Control Center (NCC).
The attending NCC person will then try to identify and resolve the
problem (if an Exodus device/network problem). Typically ping response
failure may occur due the following reasons:
- The Server(s) itself is down (assuming it is the target device)
- The line to the server is down
- The device/port on which the server is connected may be down
(i.e. router/switch/hub port).
- In some cases a server may be too busy to respond to a ping
request
CUSTOMER ESCALATION PROCESS
The customer will be notified initially of a potentially down or
unreachable device. In parallel the NCC staff will troubleshoot the
problem and escalate the situation to a senior Network Engineer (as
appropriate).

Exodus administrators will notify customers via phone and/or email of
any problem conditions that occur during the event management process.
FIREWALL SERVICE EXCLUDED FROM SERVICE LEVEL WARRANTY
Because Exodus cannot provide firewall service without relying
separately on hardware and software provided by third parties that is
being updated constantly, the firewall service is not included in the
service level warranty that Exodus currently provides customer under
section 5.2(a) of the standard terms and conditions of service. In
lieu of the warranty, Exodus commits to addressing any problems in
accordance with the response times and severity levels described
above. If customer's Web site becomes inoperable as a result of the
problem with the firewall service, Exodus will not credit customer's
account for such downtimes.

(a) Service Level Warranty. In the event Customer is unable to transmit and
receive information from Exodus' Internet Data Centers to other portions of the

will credit Customer's account the connectivity charges for one (1) day of
service; and (ii) more than eight (8) consecutive hours in a calendar month,

of service. Customer may receive only one of the foregoing credits in any single

BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR COMPLETELY SECURE.

6.5, 8.1, 8.2, 8.4, 10.3, 10.6 and 10.8 of Attachment 2 (Terms and Conditions):
3.1 Fees. Customer will pay all fees due hereunder according to the Services and
Price Form attached as Attachment 1, as amended from time to time. Exodus may

one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month, or the highest rate allowed by applicable
law, whichever is lower. If in its judgment Exodus determines that Customer is
not creditworthy due to a change in its credit history or financial condition,

terms to secure Customer's payment obligations hereunder.
