    2. Service Availability

    2.1 Calculation of Service Availability
    “Service Availability” = (1 - Unavailability Minutes within the Service Month / Total Minutes within the Service Month) × 100%.
    For example, if the Call Success Rate of each minute is 98% (less than 99%) in 30 minutes between 10:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. on a day in March 2019, the unavailability time is 30 minutes, and the Service Availability in March 2019 = 1 -(30/(31 × 24 × 60))× 100% = 99.93%.
    2.2 Service Indicator Standard
    The Service Availability of the Services provided by Tencent Cloud shall not be less than 99.5% (the “Service Availability Standard”). If the Service Availability Standard is not met (excluding cases covered by disclaimers), you shall be entitled to compensation in accordance with Article 3 of this Agreement.

    3. COMPENSATION PLAN

    For the Services, if the Service Availability is lower than the Service Availability Standard, you shall be entitled to compensation as per the following terms:
    3.1 Compensation Standard
    (1) Compensation will be provided in the form of vouchers issued by Tencent Cloud, and you must comply with vouchers usage rules (including usage period, etc., subject to the voucher-related rules published on the website of Tencent Cloud).

    Service Availability
    Compensation Voucher Amount
    Less than 99.95% but equal to or higher than 99%
    10% of Monthly Service Fee
    Less than 99% but equal to or higher than 95%
    25% of Monthly Service Fee
    Less than 95%
    50% of Monthly Service Fee
    3.2 Time Limit for Claims
    (1) If the Service Availability Standard is not met in a Service Month, you may claim for compensation only through the work order system of your corresponding account after the fifth (5th) business day of the month following the end of the corresponding Service Month in which the Service Availability Standard is not met.
