Akamai Technologies, Inc. - Confidential -16- EXHIBIT A STANDARD SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT I. SERVICE LEVELS AND CREDITS Akamai agrees to provide a level of service demonstrating: (a) Measurable Performance Enhancement: The Akamai FreeFlow service will deliver content measurably faster than the Customer's web site. (b) 100% Uptime: The Akamai FreeFlow service will serve content 100% of the time. (c) Credits: If the Akamai FreeFlow service fails to meet either of the above service levels, the Customer will receive a credit equal to fees for the day in which the failure occurs. II. SLA MONITORING METHODOLOGY The following methodology will be employed to measure FreeFlow service availability and performance enhancement: Agents and Polling Frequency (a) From six (6) geographically and network-diverse locations in major metropolitan areas, Akamai will simultaneously poll a test file residing on the Customer's production servers and on Akamai's network (b) The polling mechanism will perform two (2) simultaneous http GET operations: one GET operation will be performed on a test file residing on the appropriate customer server (e.g., http://www.customerxyz.com/images/test/gif.com the other GET operation will be performed from the Akamai Free Flow Servicegif http:// a564.g.akamaitech.net/7/564/24/2c1db485/ www.customerxyz.com/images/test gif. (c) The Akamaized test GIF must be of typecode 7 to ensure that it is a live object. (d) The test GIF will be a file of 20 Kbytes or greater in size. (e) Polling will occur at approximately 12-minute intervals. (f) Based on the http GET operations described in II(b) above, the response times received from the two sources, (a) the Customer server, and (b) the Akamai network, will be compared for the purpose of measuring performance metrics and Outages. III. PERFORMANCE METRIC The performance metric will be based on a daily average of performance for the FreeFlow service and the Customer's production web server, computed from data captured across all regions and hits. Each time will be weighted to reflect peak traffic conditions or "primetime" usage. The primetime period is 10 AM to 8 PM EST. All times recorded during this period will be weighted by a factor of three. If on a given day the Akamai weighted daily average time exceeds the Customer's weighted daily average time, then the Customer will receive a credit equivalent to fees for that day of service. IV. OUTAGES An "Outage" is defined as a 12-minute period of consecutive failed attempts by a single agent to "get" a file from the FreeFlow network while succeeding to "get" the test file from the Customer web site. If an Outage is identified by this method, the customer will receive a credit equivalent to the fees for the day in which the failure occurred.
