days after Customer executes the Order Form. Should Customer choose to add some or all of the
Non-recurring Charges to a third-party finance lease agreement, Customer agrees to provide to Ooma a
fully-executed copy of such lease prior to the Connection Date. Customer understands that Ooma will
begin to requisition all Ooma Equipment and begin to facilitate the provision of Services
immediately after Customer executes the Order Form. Therefore, Customer understands that the
Initial Payment shall be non-refundable, unless Ooma is unable or unwilling to provide the Ooma
Equipment and/or Services called for in the applicable Order Form. - Invoicing and Payment. Other than the Initial Payment, invoices
will be sent to Customer on a monthly basis. Monthly Recurring Charges related to the provision of
the Services are invoiced one month in advance (on the first day of month) and Non-recurring Charges
are invoiced in arrears unless otherwise indicated in the Order Form. Payment shall be due thirty

Order or Certified Funds. Customer may choose to receive invoices via email on the same day the
invoice is created. - Exclusions and Limitations. Ooma will provide the prices for
Non-recurring Charges upon request. Prices listed on the Order Form for Equipment do not, unless
otherwise specifically noted, include shipping and handling charges, consultation, configuration,
cabling/wiring, configuration or programming fees. - Failure to Make Payment. Any payment not received from the Customer by the due date (except with respect to charges then under reasonable and good faith dispute) shall constitute a default by Customer. If Customer defaults on payment and fails to cure such default within ten (10) days after due notice thereof, Ooma shall be entitled to terminate, suspend and/or discontinue Services without any further liability to Customer, including without limitation any liability for the termination, suspension or discontinuation of any Services supporting life safety mechanisms. Ooma will permit any service required to be provided by Law after default. In addition, in the event of default, interest shall accrue at the lower of 1.5% or the maximum rate permitted by Law of the outstanding balance per month from the date such payment is due until the date paid. Charges for returned, stopped payment, and/or non-sufficient funds via check or direct deposit payment will be assessed a returned check fee of $100.00 per returned check or deposit. The foregoing charges shall be deemed service charges and not the only remedies for breach of this Agreement. Additional remedies for breach of this Agreement by Customer are applicable.
- Taxes and Regulatory Fees. As required by Law, invoicing shall
include all requisite taxes (e.g., federal telecommunication taxes, sales tax, state taxes,
facilities tax, and any other applicable tax). Ooma will bill the Customer for such taxes on each
invoice, and Customer is responsible for making payment to Ooma. Any contest of such taxes
does not eliminate or abate the obligation to pay such taxes. Any calculation errors in
assessment and/or tax rate changes requiring adjusted tax computations by Ooma will not relieve
Customer of its responsibility to remit tax payment(s) fully and timely. Ooma will be
responsible for any penalties or interest for any retroactive taxes based on its failure to timely
remit such amounts. In addition to any taxes imposed by the government or regulatory agencies, Ooma
reserves the right to charge other authorized Regulatory Fees. The amount of such taxes and
Regulatory Fees shall be published on our website at http://www.ooma.com/rates and are incorporated by reference herein, and may

in the Order Form, following the Initial Service Term, Services shall automatically renew for
additional terms equal to the Initial Service Term (each, a “Renewal Term”, and
collectively with the Initial Term, the “Term”) unless and until Customer notifies Ooma
in writing at enterprisesupport@ooma.com at least
ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Term in effect at the time that
it does not wish to renew the Services. If, during the Term, Customer adds any additional services or locations,
the amount of Customer’s Monthly Recurring Charges shall increase by the amount of the monthly recurring
charges of such additional Services and/or locations and the term for any such additional Services shall
be coterminous with the Term then in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, adding new Service Locations will
require a new Order Form.If you rent your Ooma Equipment and you terminate your Service for any reason within 12 months
from the date you commenced the rental, you will be charged a return charge per item of rented Ooma Equipment
Within 14 days of termination, you agree to return at your own expense all Ooma Equipment to Ooma or you will
be charged $50 per item of Ooma Equipment rented, in addition to the return charge. - Termination of the Agreement. This Agreement and any Services
may be terminated or modified:- by Ooma, (A) upon thirty (30) days’ notice prior to the expiration of the Term in effect that the Services will not renew; or (B) without any liability to Ooma, including without limitation for the termination of any Services supporting life safety mechanisms, at any time and without notice if Customer (i) materially breaches the terms of this Agreement and such breach cannot be cured; (ii) violates the User Guidelines in Section 5; or (iii) violates any applicable Law.
- by Ooma, in the event any arrangement between Ooma and a third party provider used by Ooma to provide your Services and/or Equipment is terminated, expires, or is not renewed for any reason.
- by either Party, if the other party (the “Defaulting Party”)
materially breaches this Agreement and such breach is capable of cure, and the Defaulting
Party does not cure such breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice of such
breach. - by either Party if the Defaulting Party (A) becomes insolvent or admits its
inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; (B) becomes subject, voluntarily or
involuntarily, to any proceeding under any domestic or foreign bankruptcy or insolvency law,

within forty-five (45) days after filing; (C) is dissolved or liquidated or takes any
corporate action for such purpose; (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors; or (E) has a receiver, trustee, custodian or similar agent appointed by order of
any court of competent jurisdiction to take charge of or sell any material portion of its
property or business.
- Early Termination. Customer acknowledges that the pricing of the Services and Ooma Equipment has been established based on the complete fulfillment of the entire Term of the Services. If Customer wishes to terminate the Services under this Agreement prior to the expiration of the then-current Term and such termination is not due to Ooma’s breach pursuant to Section 4(b)ii or 4(b)iii above, all Monthly Recurring Charges and Non-recurring Charges which would otherwise be due through the end of the Term in effect at the time, including all applicable taxes and Equipment charges, shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of the effective date of termination. The parties agree that these early termination charges are a reasonable estimate of anticipated actual damages and not a penalty.
- Post-Termination Number Porting. Customer is responsible for promptly arranging to have
its phone numbers ported to another service provider following termination of the Services. Customer
must notify Ooma by emailing enterprisesupport@ooma.com of the number(s) ported to another service
provider in order for Ooma to close the Customer account. To complete the number porting process,
Ooma depends and relies on the third parties outside of Ooma’s control. Customer agrees that Ooma
will not be liable for any change in availability, delay, or failure in the processing of a number
transfer. Customer is responsible for any fees or costs associated with porting its number(s) to
another service provider.

User Guidelines set forth in this Section 5 (the “User Guidelines”). If Ooma becomes
aware of Customer’s violation of the User Guidelines or illegal use of the Services,
facilities, network or Third-Party Networks accessed through the Ooma network, or if Ooma otherwise
receives notice or has reason to believe such use may be occurring, then Customer will cooperate in
any resulting investigation by Ooma or government authorities. Any government determinations will be
binding on Customer upon notice to Customer. Without limiting Ooma’s right to terminate under Section 4(b), if Customer fails to cooperate with any such investigation or determination or fails to immediately rectify any violation of the User Guidelines or illegal use, Ooma may suspend the Service without further liability to Ooma. Further, Ooma may modify or suspend the Service as necessary to protect its networks or customers, or to comply with any Law. It is the sole responsibility of Customer to ensure Customer’s End Users agree to the applicable provisions of these Terms, including without limitation this Section 5. - Unauthorized Calling.

responsible for selection, implementation, and maintenance of security features for protection
against unauthorized calling, such as firewalls and passwords. Customer agrees to notify Ooma

callers or users to obtain the prior consent of all parties before the caller or User may record
the call, or other communication. Users of Ooma Meetings will receive a notification (visual or
otherwise) whenever a Host enables recording. If you or a Participant do not consent to being

respect to any Content or recordings thereof. - Blocking Calls. Without limiting Ooma’s right to terminate
under Section 4(b), Ooma may choose to block toll calls or charge Customer for reimbursement of
charges associated with calls if such calls result in atypical termination costs and/or surcharges,
including, but not limited to, calls to “free” phone conferencing services, “free” call management
services, phone chat services, 900 numbers or the international equivalent of any of the foregoing,
or recorded messages (such as those promoted in connection with reality TV shows, radio contests, or
celebrity-sponsored recordings).
- User Guidelines. Customer must, at all times, comply with the
- Service Levels.Ooma will use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize service disruptions and outages. In the event of service disruptions or outages,
Customer’s sole remedy, and Ooma sole obligation, shall be to provide the service level credits and/or
remedies for the applicable Service in accordance with the Service Level Agreement attached hereto
as Exhibit A (the “Service Level Agreement”). Ooma may update the Service
Level Agreement from time to time upon notice to Customer. - Phone Numbers.
- Assignment of Numbers. If Customer requests a phone number(s), Customer may have
the option to choose or be assigned a phone number. This phone number may or may not be in
Customer’s local calling area. If the phone number is not in Customer’s local calling
area, others in Customer’s local calling area may incur charges when calling Customer and that
the toll charges to call Customer from another calling area may be different than at
Customer’s old landline number. - Number Porting. You must provide us with a complete list of all phone numbers to
be ported for use with our Services and any numbers omitted from the listing may result in those
numbers not being ported at the time of Service activation. Ooma will use reasonable efforts to
facilitate the transfer of Customer’s phone number(s), if requested. Number porting is subject to
availability and coverage will vary from time to time. To complete the number porting process, Ooma
depends and relies on the third parties outside of Ooma’s control. Customer agrees that Ooma will
not be liable for any change in availability, delay or failure in the processing of a number
transfer, or for the unauthorized transfer of a number Customer uses with the Ooma Service. - Number Changes. Ooma may, from time to time, need to change a telephone number
that is assigned to Customer. Ooma will not be liable for any damages should Customer need to be
assigned a new phone number.
- Assignment of Numbers. If Customer requests a phone number(s), Customer may have
- Equipment.
- Shipment and Delivery. Unless expressly agreed to by the parties in writing, Ooma will select the method of shipment for the Ooma Equipment, and will deliver the Ooma Equipment to the Service Location specified in the Order Form. Title (except for rented Ooma Equipment) and risk of loss pass to Customer upon tender of such Ooma Equipment to the carrier at Ooma’s facility. Listed prices do not include shipping and handling fees. Customer is responsible for paying shipping and handling fees.
- Ownership and Risk of Loss for Owned Equipment. To the extent
Customer owns the Ooma Equipment, Customer bears all risk of loss of, theft of, casualty to or
damage to the Ooma Equipment from the time that we ship it to you until the time (if any) that it is
returned to Ooma in accordance with this Agreement. If the Ooma Equipment is damaged, lost, or
stolen, Customer will no longer be able to use the Services and will be required to purchase or rent new
Ooma Equipment. - Ownership and Risk of Loss for Leased Equipment. To the extent
Customer leases the Ooma Equipment, the parties intend that the lease constitutes a true lease under
the UCC and not a sale of equipment subject to a security interest under Article 9 of the UCC to
secure the purchase price of the Ooma Equipment. Ooma or an authorized third-party lessor, as
applicable, has title to leased Ooma Equipment at all times, and Customer acquires no ownership,
title, property, right, equity or interest in the leased Ooma Equipment other than its leasehold
interest solely as lessee subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the rent
obligations set forth in the Order Form or rental agreement. Customer, at its own expense shall
maintain, service, repair, and keep each item of leased Ooma Equipment. Customer shall bear all risk
of loss, damage, destruction, theft, and condemnation to or of such item of leased Ooma Equipment
from any cause whatsoever. - Third-Party Leasing of Equipment. If Customer leases or
otherwise finances its purchase of Ooma Equipment from a third-party leasing company, Customer shall
be responsible for executing a separate equipment leasing agreement and, unless otherwise
specifically provided in the Order Form, shall be responsible for making payment directly to the
third-party leasing company. Ooma shall not be responsible for any breach of the third-party
lease agreement by the third-party equipment leasing company. Moreover, a dispute between
Customer and the third-party leasing company shall not affect the rights and obligations of, by, and
between Ooma and Customer. - Theft of Equipment or Service: Customer shall notify Ooma
immediately if the Ooma Equipment is stolen or if Customer becomes aware at any time that the
Services are being stolen, fraudulently used, or otherwise used in an unauthorized manner. Failure
to do so in a timely manner may result in the disconnection of the Ooma Equipment and additional
charges to you. Until such time as Ooma receives notice of the theft, fraudulent use, or
unauthorized use, Customer will be liable for all costs and damages (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) related to the fraudulent or unauthorized use of Ooma Equipment and Services,
whether or not it involves stolen equipment. Ooma reserves all of its rights at law and equity to
proceed against anyone who uses the Equipment illegally or improperly. - Network, Circuit Connection and Equipment. The Services require
the ability to transmit data through third-party networks and carriers, public and private
(“Third-Party Networks”). Customer acknowledges that use of or presence of Third-Party
Networks may require approval of the owners or operators of such Third-Party Networks and will be
subject to any terms and conditions that such Third-Party Networks may establish. Customer
understands that Ooma does not own or control the Third-Party Networks and agrees that Ooma shall
not be responsible or liable for the performance or non-performance of the Third-Party Networks, or
within interconnection points between the Service and the Third-Party Networks. In addition,
Customer understands that any circuit installation charges only include access to the building entry
point. Any additional charges required by the Third-Party Networks to connect the circuits from the
building entry point to the telecommunications room are the responsibility of the Customer.
The Third-Party Network and circuit connections, as well as the Ooma Equipment, are for utilization
by Customer only. Customer may not sell, lease, license, rent or assign access to Third-Party
Networks or any Ooma Equipment without the express written consent of Ooma. Unless otherwise stated
in writing, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as vesting in Customer an ownership
interest in the Services, including ancillary wires, lines, circuits or any other products or
services provided by Ooma other than Ooma Equipment. - Limited Ooma Equipment Warranty. To the extent Customer
purchases or rents Ooma Equipment, Ooma hereby assigns to Customer, to the extent permitted by the
manufacturer, all manufacturers’ warranties for such Ooma Equipment (the “Limited
Warranty”). Customer must refer to the separate limited warranty documents (if any) provided
with the Ooma Equipment for information on the scope, limitations, and disclaimers of any warranties
and conditions. If any Ooma Equipment does not include a limited warranty from its
manufacturer, that equipment provided “as is.” If Ooma Equipment does not meet the limited warranty
associated therewith, Customer may return such Product to Ooma for replacement equipment. This
Limited Warranty does NOT cover the cost of shipment. Only Customer is authorized to exercise
rights under this paragraph. THIS SECTION SETS FORTH CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY AND OOMA’S
ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR ANY BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION.

availability/unavailability, uptime/downtime, performance, reliability, functionality, or other
operation/inoperation of Ooma Meetings, or (b) the maintenance or continued provision or support of any
particular element, property, feature, functionality, or component thereof. - Additional Terms of Equipment and Service.
- Service Distinction. Important distinctions exist between a
telecommunications service and Ooma’s Equipment and Services, and Ooma’s Equipment and
Services are subject to different regulatory treatment than a telecommunications service. This
treatment may limit or otherwise affect Customer’s rights of redress before regulatory
agencies. - Life Safety or Critical Uses of the Products and Services – Non-AirDial. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Ooma Equipment and Services, whether standing alone or when interfaced with third-party products or services, are not certified for emergency response. Ooma makes no warranty or representation regarding use of the Ooma Equipment or Services with any third-party product or service. CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS THAT THE OOMA EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES, WHETHER STANDING ALONE OR INTERFACED WITH THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, ARE NOT A THIRD-PARTY MONITORED EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM.

FURTHER, CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL OOMA DISPATCH EMERGENCY SERVICES IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT CUSTOMER WILL NOT RELY ON THE SERVICES FOR ANY LIFE SAFETY OR CRITICALPURPOSES.
- HIPAA. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the use of the Services are not designed, intended, or recommended for use as a repository or means by which to store “protected health information,” as defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, and similar legislation in other jurisdictions, and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto (such laws and regulations, “HIPAA”; such information, “PHI”) on a non-temporary basis, and Customer represents and warrants that neither the Services nor any ancillary product or service that is a part thereof will be used for such purpose, unless and to the extent specifically set forth in a separate written agreement signed by Customer and Ooma. OOMA SPECIFICALLY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES, THE ACCOUNT(S), OR THE OOMA EQUIPMENT (OR THE USE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING BY ANY PARTY) COMPLIES OR WILL COMPLY WITH HIPAA OR ANY OTHER LAW OR WILL RENDER ANY PARTY COMPLIANT WITH HIPAA OR ANY OTHER LAW, UNLESS AND TO THE EXTENT SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT SIGNED BY CUSTOMER AND OOMA.
- Third Party Service Providers. Subject to the terms and limitation of this Agreement, the Ooma Equipment, if capable, may be used with services and products from third party providers where available and pursuant to any terms or limitations that such providers may require as a condition of providing such services and/or products. You understand and agree that you have no contractual relationship with any third party provider to Ooma and that you are not a third party beneficiary of any agreement between Ooma and any such third party provider. In addition, you expressly understand and agree that any such third party provider makes no representations or warranties regarding the services or products provided by such provider, nor any Equipment or Services, and shall have no legal, equitable, or other liability of any kind to you.
-
Reliability of Services. Customer acknowledges that the Services,
including remote access and mobile notifications, are not error-free or 100% reliable and 100%
available. Proper functioning of the Services relies and is dependent on, among other things,
the transmission of data through Customer’s Wi-Fi® network, enabled wireless device (such as
a phone or tablet) and broadband internet access, or optional cellular backup service, for which
neither Ooma nor any wireless or data carrier is responsible, and may be interrupted, delayed,
refused, or otherwise limited for a variety of reasons, including insufficient coverage, power
outages, termination of service and access, environmental conditions, interference, non-payment
of applicable fees and charges, unavailability of radio frequency channels, system capacity,
upgrades, repairs or relocations, and priority access by emergency responders in the event of a
disaster or emergency (collectively, “Service Interruptions”). Customer understands that Service
Interruptions may result in the Services being unreliable or unavailable for the duration of the
Service Interruption. Ooma cannot and does not guarantee that Customer will receive
notifications within any given time, or at all.In addition, you acknowledge and agree that although the Airdial Service may be used to support
elevator lines and fire/alarm/life safety lines, limitations may apply and be encountered at
certain deployment areas and service applications. In particular, our wireless devices such as
Ooma AirDial that depend on radio transmissions will not function when they are not in range of
the required radio signal. Even within the appropriate service area, the availability and
quality of your Service may be affected by factors beyond our control, such as network capacity,
terrain, surrounding structures and weather. -
Privacy & Security. The Services use the public internet, Third-Party
Networks, and inside wiring in customers’ premises to transmit communications. Ooma has
engineered the Ooma Equipment and Services using commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the
risk of any loss in privacy when using such systems. Customer acknowledges, however, that Ooma
cannot guarantee that Customer’s communications are completely secure. Ooma respects your
privacy and treats the content of all communications as private, except as may be required by
Law.The safety and security of your personal information, Content and Ooma Meeting IDs also depend on
you. It is your responsibility to protect the security of your login information, Content and
Ooma Meeting IDs (including associated passwords).Please refer to the Privacy Policy on our web site our Privacy Policy for additional
information. - International Usage. The Ooma Equipment and Services have been
designed to support installation and use in the U.S. with a U.S. high-speed Internet service
provider. Ooma currently only provides U.S. phone numbers and cannot guarantee installation,
performance, or use of Ooma Equipment and Service outside the U.S. If Customer chooses to install
and use Ooma Equipment and Services outside of the United States, Customer will be solely
responsible for any violation of any Laws, such as export laws, tax laws, tariff agreements, U.S. or
foreign regulatory rules, U.S. or local laws, or violation of your high-speed internet
provider’s terms of service. Customer will also be accountable for payment of any taxes, fees,
penalties, and/or surcharges associated with use of the Ooma Equipment and Services outside of the
United States. Ooma reserves the right to suspend Service to any non-U.S. based system at any time. -
Voice-to-Text Limitations. Some Ooma Services provide a function that
allows voicemails to be converted to text. Customer understands and agrees that this
voice-to-text conversion may not be accurate, and Customer is responsible for listening to the
original voicemail to verify the accuracy of the conversion. Certain Services utilize
human-aided conversions and, as a result, the privacy of messages and their content cannot be
guaranteed. Customer hereby releases all claims against Ooma and its third-party providers with
respect to the voice-to-text service.In addition, the Host and any Participant can choose to transcribe meetings held via Ooma
Meetings using a third-party service, which transcription will be made available via a private
website link that will be made available only to the Host and the Participants of that
particular meeting. However, meeting audio may not be completely or accurately transcribed. Some
common limitations include poor quality or unrecognizable audio content, multiple speakers, use
of uncommon words, phrases or industry-specific terminology, and accent of speaker. Ooma is not
responsible for and makes no representation as to the accuracy of any transcription, and
expressly disclaims any and all liability with respect to transcriptions. - May Not Support x11 Calling. The Ooma Equipment, if not
connected to a landline, may not support 311, 511 and/or other x11 services in one or more (or all)
service areas (other than certain specified dialing such as 911 and 411, which are provided for

- Data. Ooma may throttle data speeds to manage overall data usage. Overage charges may apply for excessive data use.
- Service Distinction. Important distinctions exist between a
- EMERGENCY 911 SERVICES
- Customer acknowledges and understands that it is Customer’s
responsibility to determine the technology or combination of technologies best suited to meet
Customer’s emergency calling needs and to make necessary provisions for access to
emergency calling services (such as maintaining a conventional landline phone or wireless phone
as a backup means of completing emergency calls). - Emergency Services – 911 Calling
- Non-Availability of Traditional 911 or E911 Calling Service. Ooma E911
Service (the “E911 Service”) is a mandatory component of the Services and is
only available in certain areas. Most Customers have access to either Basic 911
Service or Enhanced 911 Service, as defined in subsection 12(b)ii.1. The E911
Service enables Customers to communicate with emergency services by dialing 911. However,
the E911 Service is different in important ways from traditional landline 911 and
cellular/wireless 911, depending upon where Customer is located and the device used with the
Services. Customer agrees to notify any user or potential user of the Services who may place
calls using Customer’s Services of the 911 limitations described herein. Customer
agrees to place a label on and/or near each telephone or other Customer Equipment on which
the Services may be utilized regarding the limitations or unavailability of 911 emergency
dialing. - Description of Emergency Dialing Capabilities.
- How it Works. When a Customer dials 911 from a device connected
to or used with the Services (a “Ooma device”), the Ooma phone number
and the registered address Customer has provided to Ooma is sent to the local
emergency center serving the location of your registered address to enable emergency
operators to send help and to call the Customer back, if necessary (“Enhanced
911 Service”). In some areas, emergency operators have access to this
information; however, in areas where only basic 911 service is available, the
emergency operator answering the call may not be able to see your Ooma telephone
number or your registered address. Customers in locations in which the emergency
center is not equipped to receive the Customer’s telephone number and/or
address have what is called “Basic 911 Service.” Customer should always
be prepared to provide the emergency operator with Customer’s telephone number
and location. Until the Customer gives the requisite call back and location
information to the emergency operator, the emergency operator may not be able to
dispatch help or return the Customer’s call. This is especially the case if
the call is not completed or forwarded, is dropped or disconnected, or if the
Customer is unable to speak. As local emergency centers become capable of receiving
Customer’s address and call back information, Ooma will automatically upgrade
customers with Basic 911 service to Enhanced 911 Service. Ooma will not provide
notice of the upgrade. Ooma does not control whether or not the emergency operator
receives Customer’s telephone number and address. - No Access to Enhanced or Basic 911 Service. Certain Customers do
not have access to either Enhanced 911 Service or Basic 911 Service. If Customer
does not have access to Enhanced 911 Service or Basic 911 Service, the
Customer’s emergency call will be sent to a national emergency call center. In
such case, an agent at the emergency call center will ask the Customer for his/her
name, telephone number and location and will then contact the local emergency center
for such location in order to send help. Examples of situations where 911 calls will
be sent to the national emergency call center include when there is a problem
validating a Customer’s address, the Customer is identified with an
international location, or the Customer is located in an area that is not covered by
the 911 network. Until Customer gives the agent Customer’s telephone number
and location, he/she may not be able to call Customer back or dispatch help to
Customer’s location if the call is dropped or disconnected. - Desktop or Softphone App 911 Calls. EMERGENCY CALLS CANNOT BE
PLACED THROUGH SOFTPHONES THAT ARE NOT 911-ENABLED. If Customer uses a Desktop or
Softphone app, 911 calls will be routed to the local emergency center serving the
911 location that is associated with the Desktop or Softphone app. Therefore, if
Customer is using the Desktop or Softphone app in a nomadic manner (e.g., from a
hotel, from a home office, etc.), the Customer must update the 911 location on an
ongoing basis to ensure that 911 calls will be sent to the appropriate local
emergency center that serves the then current Customer location. - E911 Service Fees. Customers are required to subscribe to the
E911 Service and will be subject to monthly, government-imposed fees (the
“E911 Service Fees”), which are in addition to any applicable state 911
tax based on Customer’s service address and in addition to the applicable
Service Fees for the associated line(s). If the E911 Service Fees are not paid, the
emergency communications district in Customer’s jurisdiction may seek to
collect such amounts from Customer directly. Ooma does not profit from
Customer’s E911 Service and the E911 Service Fees collected are turned over to
the appropriate government authority pursuant to their requirements. Ooma reserves
the right to adjust the E911 Service Fees associated with the provision of the E911
Service to reflect increases or decreases in the costs it incurs in providing the
E911 Service.
- How it Works. When a Customer dials 911 from a device connected
- Non-Availability of Traditional 911 or E911 Calling Service. Ooma E911
- Registered Location.
- Registered Location Required. Upon creation of the Customer account, Ooma initially assigns all extensions and Ooma devices to the physical street address on file for the Customer. Prior to activation of the Services, Customer shall: (i) register with Ooma all additional 911 locations where the Services are to be used, as necessary; and (ii) assign each Ooma device to one of the registered 911 locations. In some cases, one extension may have multiple Ooma devices, and each such Ooma device needs to be assigned a 911 location. Failure to register a 911 location may result in the suspension or termination of your Services. Customer may register multiple 911 locations per account and assign all active extensions and Ooma devices to such 911 locations. Individual End Users may assign and re-assign their current location(s) on an as-needed basis. Customer agrees to ensure that the physical location(s) provided to Ooma are correct, and to immediately update such location(s) whenever the physical location(s) of the Ooma devices change. Customer agrees and understands it is Customer’s responsibility to instruct each End User to notify Customer each time such User changes its location and remind each End User to do so at least once per month. If an Ooma device will be used in a different or new location, Customer must create and/or register the location for the Ooma device. You will be liable for any charges or fees incurred by Ooma which arise out of or relate to your failure to provide 911 locations which accurately reflect the then-current physical location of your Ooma devices and/or where each user account is utilized from, as applicable. If Customer does not register the new location, any 911 call made from the Ooma device may be sent to an emergency center near the prior, registered location. In most cases, the registration process occurs in real-time. In some cases, the registration will be referred to a 911 provider for validation, which could take days. Customer (i) acknowledges and understands that any location information passed to emergency personnel by Ooma will be based upon the physical location information provided by the Customer, and (ii) agrees to promptly assist Ooma in validating a 911 location address that has been rejected by the 911 provider. Customer will receive a confirmation email when the 911 location has been validated for: (i) the initial registered location; and (ii) for any subsequent locations submitted by Customer. If Ooma is unable to validate the address Customer provides during the registration process, Ooma may terminate Customer’s account.
- Use of Service Outside United States or Canada. Customer acknowledges
that if a user of the Services calls 911 from outside the United States or Canada, the user
may be instructed to hang up and call their local service provider. Customer shall notify
all users (i.e., business colleagues, employees, guests and other persons who may be present
at the physical location where Customer uses the Services) that 911 may not be available
outside the United States and Canada and that 911 service may be limited in comparison to
traditional 911 service. For clarity, 911 service is available only in the 50 United States,
the District of Columbia, and Canada, and is not provided in any US territory or in other
international locations. - Failure to Designate and Identify the Correct Physical Address.
Customer’s failure to provide and keep current Customer’s correct physical
location(s) may result in any 911 call or other emergency communication made by Customer or
from Customer’s actual location (if different from the location previously supplied to
Ooma by Customer) being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider. Most post
office box addresses are not eligible as a validated 911 location. Customer’s physical
location(s) may NOT be a mail drop or similar address. If Customer dials 911 before
Customer’s registered location has been entered in the emergency operator’s
database, Customer’s call will be routed to a national emergency call
center. Customer acknowledges that Ooma’s only mechanism for routing 911
calls to the correct emergency call taker is the physical location currently registered
for Customer’s account. Customer acknowledges and understands that any enhanced
location information passed to an emergency operator by Ooma will be based upon the
physical location provided to Ooma by Customer. In the event the physical location has
not been updated or is not complete, Ooma may attempt to route a 911 call based upon the
bill to or ship to address associated with Customer’s account or initial
order. - Mobile Applications. 911 emergency calls cannot be made from any Ooma
mobile application (each a “Mobile App”). Any Mobile App is not a replacement for your
cellular service. TO ENSURE PROPER CALL ROUTING, WHEN MAKING 911 CALLS WITH YOUR MOBILE
DEVICE, YOU SHOULD MAKE SUCH CALLS USING YOUR CELLULAR CONNECTION AND NETWORK THROUGH YOUR
CELLULAR PROVIDER.
- Service Outage
-
Power Failure or Disruption. Emergency dialing will not function in the
event of a broadband, power or ISP Service failure or disruption. If there is an
interruption in the power supply, a power surge or a power failure, the Services and
emergency dialing will not function until power is restored. A power failure, power
surge or
power disruption may require Customer to reset or reconfigure equipment prior to using
the
Services or being able to make emergency 911 calls.YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING UNINTERRUPTED AC POWER TO THE EQUIPMENT. ANY POWER
INTERRUPTION MAY RESULT IN A LOSS OF SERVICE INCLUDING 911 SERVICE AND SIMILAR EMERGENCY
SERVICES. THEREFORE, YOU MUST ENSURE AVAILABILITY OF BACKUP POWER FOR THE EQUIPMENT OR
ALTERNATIVE 911 SERVICE NOT DEPENDENT ON AVAILABILITY OF AC POWER TO ENABLE PROPER
FUNCTION. - Service Suspension or Termination by Ooma. A Services outage or
suspension (including, without limitation, suspension of Services due to billing issues or
delinquent or unpaid invoices) or termination of Services by Ooma will prevent ALL calls
from being made through the Services, including the ability to make emergency 911 calls. - Other Service Outages. If there is a Services outage for ANY reason,
such outage will prevent ALL calls from being made through the Services, including the
ability to make emergency 911 calls. Such outage may occur for a variety of reasons,
including, without limitation, those reasons described elsewhere in this E911 Notice or the
Agreement.
-
- Automated Number Identification. Due to limitations at public-safety answering
points (“PSAP(s)”), it may not be possible for the PSAP and the local emergency
personnel to identify Customer’s telephone number (or the number assigned by Ooma) when
Customer dials 911 via the Services. PSAP and emergency personnel may be unable to identify
Customer’s telephone number in order to call Customer back in the event that an emergency call
is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, or if a caller is unable to speak to provide
the telephone number from which the caller is calling, and/or if the Services is not operational for
any reason including, without limitation, the reasons and situations listed elsewhere in this E911
Notice or the Agreement. - Automated Location Identification. Due to limitations at PSAPs, it may not be
possible to transmit identification of the Customer physical location address to the PSAP and local
emergency personnel for Customer’s area when Customer or any caller at Customer’s
premises dials 911. A caller must state the nature of the emergency promptly and clearly, including
the caller’s specific physical location, as PSAP and emergency personnel may NOT have this
information. PSAP and emergency personnel may not be able to find a caller’s location if the
call is unable to be completed, is dropped, or disconnected, or if the caller is unable to speak to
provide the location from which the caller is calling and/or if the Services are not operational for
any reason including, without limitation, those reasons and situations listed elsewhere in this E911
Notice or the Agreement. - Disclaimers; Limitation of Liability.

WILL NOT FUNCTION IN THE EVENT OF (I) AN INTERNET SERVICE OUTAGE, (II) AN ELECTRICAL POWER
FAILURE THAT EXCEEDS ANY BATTERY BACKUP CAPABILITY, (III) A TEMPORARY BLOCK OR SUSPENSION OF
YOUR SERVICE OR (IV) A SERVICE OUTAGE FOR ANY OTHER REASON. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR
ENSURING THAT YOUR USE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND SERVICE MEETS ANY APPLICABLE REGULATORY
REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE APPLICABLE TO FIRE PANELS. OOMA SPECIFICALLY
DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL
LIABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH ANY FAILURE OF THE SERVICES, OR LACK OF AVAILABILITY TO REACH 911
SERVICES. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT OOMA WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY
SERVICES OUTAGE OR INABILITY TO COMPLETE EMERGENCY 911 CALLS FROM ANY OOMA DEVICE, CUSTOMER LINE
OR CUSTOMER PREMISES OR TO ACCESS EMERGENCY SERVICE PERSONNEL, OR IN THE EVENT THAT CUSTOMER OR
ANY OTHER CALLER FROM CUSTOMER’S EQUIPMENT IS UNABLE TO PLACE, OR COMPLETE, A CALL TO 911
OR E911 SERVICES, OR IN THE EVENT THAT EMERGENCY RESPONDERS DO NOT RESPOND, OR DO NOT RESPOND TO
THE LOCATION AT WHICH THE EQUIPMENT, CUSTOMER, OR CALLER IS PHYSICALLY PRESENT OR REQUIRE SUCH
SERVICES. IN NO EVENT SHALL OOMA BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INCIDENTAL,
INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES RELATED TO CUSTOMER’S (OR
ANY CUSTOMER EMPLOYEE, AGENT, CONTRACTOR, OR THIRD PARTY OR USER OF THE SERVICES) USE OF OR
INABILITY TO USE E911 SERVICE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WHATSOEVER WILL OOMA HAVE ANY LIABILITY
ASSOCIATED WITH 911 OR E911 SERVICES, INCLUDING, AND WITHOUT LIMITATION, IN THE EVENT OF: A)
LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER; B) LOSS OF INTERNET CONNECTIVITY; C) DEFECTIVE OR MISCONFIGURED
EQUIPMENT; D) NETWORK CONGESTION; E) DELAYS ASSOCIATED WITH UPDATING REGISTERED SERVICE

THIRD PARTIES THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ROUTING 911 CALLS; K) THE USE OF NONNATIVE TELEPHONE
NUMBERS; L) FAILURE OF ANY EMERGENCY SERVICE PERSONNEL TO CALL BACK DIRECTLY TO THE NUMBER FROM
WHICH A 911 CALL WAS MADE OR FAILURE OF EQUIPMENT TO RECEIVE CALLBACKS FROM EMERGENCY SERVICE
PERSONNEL; or M) ANY FORCE MAJEURE EVENT. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE LIMITATION
OF OOMA’S LIABILITY IS A MATERIAL TERM TO THE AGREEMENT, AND THAT IT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE
ENTER INTO THE AGREEMENT WITHOUT THIS LIMITATION, AND THAT CUSTOMER AGREES THAT THESE
LIMITATIONS ARE REASONABLE.BY USING THE SERVICES AND/OR OOMA EQUIPMENT, CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THE LIMITATIONS OF OOMA E911

WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY IP

- Governing Law. This Agreement and the relationship between Ooma and
Customer are governed by the laws of the state of California without regard to its conflict of law
provisions. To the extent court action is initiated to enforce an arbitration award or for any other reason

Clara County and Customer submits to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within
the state of California and waives any objection as to venue or inconvenient forum. - Mandatory Binding Arbitration; Waiver of Jury Trial. READ THIS SECTION

CUSTOMER CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM OOMA. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the
determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by
arbitration in Santa Clara County, California before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered
by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited
Procedures in those Rules. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and
arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of
arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. Judgment
on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from
seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Customer and
Ooma further agree that each may bring suit in court to enjoin a breach of confidentiality or infringement
or other misuse of IP Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, Ooma may seek

or alleged breach of confidentiality or infringement of Ooma’s or any other person or entity’s IP or
proprietary Rights. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A
PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION
OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS OOMA AGREES
OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT, BY
ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, CUSTOMER AND OOMA ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO
PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE
PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND. - Export Controls.

Exhibit A
Ooma Service Level Agreement
Ooma provides the following service-level agreement (“SLA“) for Customer and its individual End
User Locations:
- Ooma agrees to respond to all SLA-related inquires within the stated time frames, below, 95% of
the time in each calendar month:Contact Hours Urgent Priority Initial Response Medium Priority Initial Response Low Priority Initial Response Monday – Friday, 5 am to 5 pm PT; Saturday, 6am – 2pm PT 1 hour 4 hours 24 hours All other dates/times & holidays 4 hours Next Business Day Next Business Day - In each End User Location where Ooma provides access to the Service, a guarantee of 99.999%
service uptime will be provided accordingly. “End User Location” means any single location where a Customer
End User receives Services. Subject to the following limitations, in any calendar month in which at least
fifteen (15) minutes of downtime occurs at an End User Location, Ooma shall provide credits to the Customer
as shown below (the “Service Credits”).Minutes of downtime Amount of Service Credit 15-30 minutes 1 day credit 31-60 minutes 2 day credit 61-120 minutes 4 day credit 121-240 minutes 6 day credit Over 241 minutes 8 day credit Service downtimes in multiple End User Locations cannot be combined and Service Credits will only be calculated based on the minutes of downtime for each End User Location.
- Service Credits will be applied against future payments due to Ooma. Service Credits will not
entitle Customer to any refund or other payment from Ooma and may not be transferred or applied to any other
account or End User Location or exchanged for, or converted to, monetary compensation. Customer’s sole and
exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or failure by Ooma to provide the Services is the
receipt of a Service Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In order to receive any of the
Service Credits described above, Customer must notify Ooma by email or otherwise in writing within thirty
(30) days from the time Customer becomes eligible to receive the Service Credits. - Service Credits do not apply in the case of performance issues caused by: (i) factors outside
of Ooma’s reasonable control; (ii) any actions or inactions of Customer or any third parties; (iii) Site
electrical and internet outages; or (iv) malfunctioning hardware managed and owned by the Customer, such as
Customer’s Broadband Connection or Broadband Modem. - Ooma cannot guarantee any quality of service using Customer’s Broadband Connection or Broadband
Modem, nor can we monitor the health of the Broadband Modem circuit. Any call quality or Broadband
Connection related issues will not be Ooma’s responsibility, nor does Ooma have the ability to improve the
call quality. Ooma will undertake to provide its own dedicated voice circuits with Ooma provided modems and
routers as quickly as possible, and when available Ooma will migrate the voice services to these circuits,
after which Ooma’s SLA shall apply. Ooma cannot provide any assurances that any Customer-furnished switch
will interoperate properly with Ooma’s equipment. If Ooma cannot successfully utilize Customer-furnished
devices, Ooma will provide a suitable PoE switch that has been certified with the Ooma network, and this
will be done at the Customer’s expense.
