Part B. Scope
3
| 5.4 | Assistance | |||
| Without prejudice to the other terms of this Agreement, throughout the term of this Agreement BT shall (and shall procure that each member of the BT Group shall) and Reuters shall (and shall procure that each member of the Reuters Group shall), when dealing with each other, act towards each other reasonably and in good faith and (to the extent reasonably commercially practicable) provide each other with such reasonable assistance as requested from time to time by the other Party to meet the objectives of this Agreement. | ||||
| 5.5 | Equant PSA Pass Through | |||
| 5.5.1 | The Parties acknowledge and agree that Equant’s performance pursuant to the Equant PSA during the Standard Period would be sufficient to enable BT to perform the Existing Services at the relevant Service Levels under this Agreement. Subject to Clause 5.5.3, for the period of 12 months after the Closing Date, where Equant’s performance under the Equant PSA falls below that which it delivered during the Standard Period then, to the extent that such service degradation prevents BT from providing the Existing Services at the Service Levels, BT shall be relieved from its obligations to provide such elements of the Existing Services at the Service Levels. | |||
| 5.5.2 | BT shall: | |||
| (i) | use all reasonable endeavours to mitigate the operational impact of a service degradation by Equant on its provision of the Existing Services; and | |||
| (ii) | notify Reuters as soon as is reasonably practicable after it becomes aware of a service degradation by Equant which is likely to affect BT’s ability to provide the Existing Services at the Service Levels. | |||
| 5.5.3 | The relief from BT’s obligations to provide the Existing Services at the Service Levels as set out above in Clause 5.5.1 shall not apply: | |||
| (i) | to the extent (a) that BT fails to comply with its obligations under Clause 5.5.2 and (b) that failure causes Reuters prejudice or loss; and | |||
| (ii) | in respect of Equant’s performance which is in breach of the Equant PSA (save to the extent that such breach also took place during the Standard Period). | |||
Part C. The Services
4
| 6.2 | The Parties will work together in good faith to finalise the Migration Plan (which will include a schedule of tasks for each Party, dates for their completion, testing criteria and a plan for testing) within 90 days of the Signing Date. | ||
| 6.3 | The Parties will assess the Migration Plan and associated risks on a continual basis and agree amendments to the Migration Plan accordingly. | ||
| 6.4 | The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Migration Plan is a project management tool that has been and will be developed and agreed jointly between the Parties in accordance with Clauses 6.2 and 6.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any change in the Migration Plan that results in a change to the Migration Milestones or the Migration Dependencies (or any of them) shall be progressed through the Change Control Procedure. | ||
| 6.5 | [Deliberately left blank] | ||
| Migration Milestones and Dependencies | |||
| 6.6 | BT shall, or shall procure that the relevant member of the BT Group shall, successfully complete or achieve the Migration Milestones by the relevant date set out in Schedule 4 (Migration Milestones). The Parties acknowledge that the date of a Migration Milestone may be changed by the Parties only in the circumstances set out in Clauses 6.11, 6.12 and 6.14 or by agreement through the Change Control Procedure (including as set out in Clause 6.16). | ||
| 6.7 | In the event of a Migration Failure: | ||
| 6.7.1 | Reuters shall not be liable for any failure to provide, deliver or complete any Related Migration Dependencies to the extent that such failure was caused by the Migration Failure. The Parties agree that any Related Migration Dependency shall be adjusted (including, without limitation, by extending the due date for such Related Migration Dependency) to the extent that the Migration Failure prevents Reuters from providing, delivering or completing that Migration Dependency and the Parties will, acting reasonably and in good faith, discuss and agree that adjustment; and | ||
| 6.7.2 | subject to Clause 6.13, where the Migration Failure is continuing at the end of any relevant Buffer Period, Reuters reserves the right to charge BT the Migration LDs, and BT shall pay the Migration LDs when charged. The Parties agree that the Migration LDs represent a genuine pre-estimate of the Losses which Reuters will sustain as a result of a Migration Failure, actual damages in those circumstances being difficult to determine; accordingly, such payments are not a penalty. | ||
| 6.8 | To the extent that Reuters can demonstrate, to BT’s reasonable satisfaction, that a BT Failure prevented Reuters from providing, delivering or completing a Migration Dependency, then, subject to | ||
5
| Clause 6.9, Reuters shall not be liable for its failure to provide, deliver or complete that Migration Dependency and the Parties agree that the Migration Dependency shall be adjusted (including without limitation by extending the due date for such Migration Dependency) to the extent that the BT Failure prevented Reuters from providing, delivering or completing that Migration Dependency and the Parties will, acting reasonably and in good faith, discuss and agree that adjustment. | |||
| 6.9 | In the event that Reuters fails to comply with its obligation pursuant to Clause 8.5.2, Clause 6.8 will not apply to the extent that BT could reasonably have avoided or mitigated the impact of the BT Failure if it had been informed of the BT Failure in accordance with Clause 8.5.2. | ||
| 6.10 | Reuters shall, or shall procure that the relevant member of the Reuters Group shall provide, deliver or successfully complete the Migration Dependencies as applicable by the relevant date set out in Schedule 9 (Migration Dependencies). The Parties acknowledge that the date of a Migration Dependency may be changed by the Parties only in the circumstances set out in Clause 6.7 or by agreement between the Parties through the Change Control Procedure (including as set out in Clause 6.12). | ||
| 6.11 | Where any Migration Dependency is not provided, delivered or completed by the date set out in Schedule 9 (Migration Dependencies), then: | ||
| 6.11.1 | BT shall not be liable for any Migration Failure in respect of any Related Migration Milestone to the extent that such failure was caused by Reuters’ failure to provide, deliver or complete the Migration Dependency. The Parties agree that a Migration Milestone shall be adjusted (including, without limitation, by extending the due date for such Migration Milestone) to the extent that the failure to provide, deliver or complete the Migration Dependency prevents BT from providing, delivering or completing that Migration Milestone and the Parties will, acting reasonably and in good faith, discuss and agree that adjustment; and | ||
| 6.11.2 | subject to Clause 6.13, where the failure to provide, deliver or complete the Migration Dependency is continuing at the end of any relevant Buffer Period BT reserves the right to charge the relevant Migration Surcharge, and Reuters shall pay that Migration Surcharge when charged. The Parties agree that the Migration Surcharge represents a genuine pre-estimate of the Losses which BT will sustain as a result of a failure by Reuters to provide, deliver or complete a Migration Dependency, actual damages in those circumstances being difficult to determine; accordingly, such payments are not a penalty. | ||
| 6.12 | To the extent that BT can demonstrate, to Reuters’ reasonable satisfaction, that a Reuters Failure prevented BT from providing, delivering or completing a Migration Milestone, then, subject to Clause 6.13, BT shall not be liable for any Migration Failure in respect of that Migration Milestone and the Parties agree that the Migration Milestone | ||
6
| shall be adjusted (including without limitation by extending the due date for such Migration Milestone) to the extent that the Reuters Failure prevented BT from providing, delivering or completing that Migration Milestone and the Parties will, acting reasonably and in good faith, discuss and agree that adjustment. | |||
| 6.13 | In the event that BT fails to comply with its obligations pursuant to Clauses 7.3.3 or 7.4.2, Clause 6.12 will not apply: | ||
| 6.13.1 | in the case of a failure to comply with Clause 7.3.3, to the extent that BT could reasonably have avoided or mitigated the impact of the Reuters Failure if it had complied with its obligations pursuant to Clause 7.3.3; and | ||
| 6.13.2 | in the case of a failure to comply with Clause 7.4.2, to the extent that Reuters could reasonably have avoided or mitigated the impact of the Reuters Failure if it had been informed of the Reuters Failure in accordance with Clause 7.4.2. | ||
| 6.14 | Each Party will provide appropriate senior management representation at monthly programme review sessions to review the progress of the Migration Plan and progress against Migration Milestones and Migration Dependencies. The Parties shall at each regular review meeting held pursuant to Clause 14 (or at such time as may be reasonably requested by either Party): | ||
| 6.14.1 | discuss in good faith ways to ensure that migration is conducted in a cost efficient manner for both Parties; | ||
| 6.14.2 | identify any actual or potential delays in the migration process; and | ||
| 6.14.3 | discuss in good faith ways to avoid or mitigate the effect of any actual or potential delays in the migration process (including implementing the Migration Milestone or Migration Dependency in an alternative way) and otherwise to ensure ongoing compliance (so far as possible) with the Migration Plan and achievement of the Migration Milestones and the Migration Dependencies, including (where the Parties agree through the Change Control Procedure) any necessary adjustment to the Migration Milestones and/or the Migration Dependencies, and shall implement any plans or actions agreed at any such meeting. |
||
| 6.15 | The Parties further acknowledge and agree that if there are steps or activities that are not contained in the Migration Plan or in this Agreement (including its Schedules), in each case at the Signing Date, that it is necessary or desirable that the Parties (or one of them) should provide, deliver or complete in order to enable migration in accordance with the Migration Plan and achieve the Migration Milestones or the Migration Dependencies then the relevant Party shall undertake such additional activities and the costs of provision, delivery or completion of those requirements and additional activities shall be borne: | ||
| 6.15.1 | by BT, if it is a requirement that BT was aware of at the Signing Date; | ||
7
| 6.15.2 | by Reuters, if it is a requirement that does not fall within Clause 6.15.1 but either Reuters was aware of, or would, if acting in accordance with Good Professional Practice, be aware of at the Signing Date; or | ||
| 6.15.3 | if not falling within Clauses 6.15.1 or 6.15.2, as agreed between the Parties in good faith discussions, each Party acting reasonably. | ||
| 6.16 | The Parties agree that the Migration Milestones and/or the Migration Dependencies may need to be adjusted as a consequence of the additional requirements identified under Clause 6.15. The Parties will, acting reasonably and in good faith, discuss the impact of such additional requirements with a view to agreeing any necessary adjustment to the Migration Milestones and/or the Migration Dependencies through the Change Control Procedure. | ||
| 6.17 | If any prospective changes to a Migration Milestone are being discussed pursuant to Clauses 6.11, 6.12, 6.14 or 6.16, Reuters agrees that it will not enforce its rights to charge the Migration LDs under Clause 6.7 in relation to that Migration Milestone in each case until agreement has been reached between the Parties pursuant to Clause 6.11, 6.12, 6.14 or 6.16, as the case may be. | ||
| 6.18 | If any prospective changes to a Migration Dependency are being discussed pursuant to Clauses 6.7, 6.8, 6.14 or 6.16, BT agrees that it will not enforce its rights to charge the Migration Surcharge under Clause 6.9 in relation to that Migration Dependency, in each case until agreement has been reached between the Parties pursuant to Clause 6.7, 6.8, 6.14 or 6.16, as the case may be. | ||
| 6.19 | During a Buffer Period the Parties shall meet to discuss in good faith ways to remedy and mitigate the effect of the Migration Failure or the failure to provide, deliver or complete the Migration Dependency (as the case may be). | ||
| 6.20 | From the date of each Service Acceptance Notice in respect of a Connection, the Service Levels for that Connection shall be the New Service Levels. On receipt from Reuters of the final Service Acceptance Notice for the final Facility to be migrated, BT will issue a Final Migration Notice. From the date of that Final Migration Notice, BT shall cease to provide any further Existing Services under this Agreement and shall provide all New Services under and in accordance with this Agreement. | ||
| 6.21 | Without prejudice to either Party’s rights under this Agreement, in the event that the Migration Date has not been reached on or before the date four years from the Closing Date (or such later date as may be agreed between the Parties), the Parties shall discuss in good faith any consequences of the same in accordance with the Dispute Resolution Procedure. | ||
8
| 7.1.1 | the Service Levels; | ||
| 7.1.2 | subject to Clause 21, Applicable Legislation; and | ||
| 7.1.3 | Good Professional Practice. | ||
| Where the Service Levels are not met the provisions of Clause 28 (Service Credits) shall apply. | |||
| 7.2 | Compliance with Policies | ||
| BT confirms that it has received a copy of the Code and agrees to use all reasonable endeavours to comply with all applicable requirements in, and to procure that its Personnel shall use all reasonable endeavours to comply with all requirements in, the Code (as amended from time to time) provided that: | |||
| 7.2.1 | BT shall only be obliged to comply and procure compliance with any amendments to the Code from the expiry of a reasonable period of time following its receipt of such amendments; and | ||
| 7.2.2 | if compliance with any amendments to the Code will result in an adverse impact on the provision of the Services or in members of the BT Group incurring additional costs, this shall be discussed between the Parties and the amendments to the Code, and any Changes required to comply with the amended Code, shall not apply unless agreed through the Change Control Procedure. | ||
| In any event: | |||
| 7.2.3 | BT (and its Personnel) shall not be required to comply with the Code to the extent that to do so would require BT (or any member of the BT Group or any Subcontractors) to breach any Applicable Legislation; | ||
| 7.2.4 | BT’s obligations in this Clause 7.2 to comply with, and procure its Personnel’s compliance with, the Code shall be absolute (and not qualified by reasonable endeavours) to the extent that compliance with the Code is required by Applicable Legislation; and | ||
| 7.2.5 | BT (and its Personnel) shall be entitled to comply with BT's own standards and procedures instead of a part of the Code if and to the extent that Reuters agrees that BT's own standards and procedures provide protection which is not materially less than that part of the Code (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). | ||
9
| 7.3 | Relief from Certain Obligations | ||
| 7.3.1 | Subject to Clause 7.3.2, BT will be discharged from its obligation to supply a Service or carry out any other obligation under this Agreement (except the obligation to achieve the Migration Milestones, but without prejudice to Clause 6.12) to the extent that a Reuters Failure prevents BT from supplying such Service or carrying out such obligation. | ||
| 7.3.2 | In the event that BT fails to comply with its obligations pursuant to Clauses 7.3.3 or 7.4.2, Clause 7.3.1 will not apply; | ||
| (i) | in the case of a failure to comply with Clause 7.3.3, to the extent that BT could reasonably have avoided or mitigated the impact of the Reuters Failure if it had complied with its obligations pursuant to Clause 7.3.3; and | ||
| (ii) | in the case of a failure to comply with Clause 7.4.2, to the extent that Reuters could reasonably have avoided or mitigated the impact of the Reuters Failure if it had been informed of the Reuters Failure in accordance with Clause 7.4.2. | ||
| 7.3.3 | Where BT is prevented from supplying a Service or carrying out any other obligation under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the provision, delivery or completion of a Migration Milestone) by reason of a Reuters Failure, BT shall inform Reuters as soon as reasonably practicable, describing the relevant matter or matters in reasonable detail, and BT shall: | ||
| (i) | supply all other Services and fulfil all other obligations in accordance with this Agreement; | ||
| (ii) | use Good Professional Practice to perform the affected Service or other obligation (as the case may be) to the extent reasonably possible, and all direct and reasonable costs incurred by BT in doing so, to the extent those costs are not already included in the Service Charges, shall be included in the next invoice sent to Reuters and paid by Reuters as if part of the Service Charges; where (a) such additional costs are likely to be material; and (b) it is reasonably possible to consult with Reuters regarding such costs prior to incurring them and still fulfil its obligations under this Clause, BT shall consult with Reuters regarding such costs. Where BT does so consult, BT shall be under no obligation to perform the affected Service or other obligation (as the case may be) under this Clause 7.3.3(ii) until Reuters has approved BT’s course of action, and the costs to be incurred; and | ||
| (iii) | resume or commence supply of the affected Service or other obligations (as the case may be) in accordance with this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable once the relevant Reuters obligation has been fulfilled. | ||
10
| 8.1 | Reuters shall provide or procure the provision of the Reuters Services to BT, the BT Group and/or the Subcontractors in accordance with Good Professional Practice and on the terms set out in Schedule 3 (Reuters Services). | ||
| 8.2 | Reuters shall, on request from BT, provide Reuters Information that is reasonably requested of it and that is necessary to provide the Services where such Reuters Information is not reasonably available from any other person, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of such request. The Information provided by Reuters pursuant to this Clause will be provided in accordance with Good Professional Practice. | ||
| 8.3 | Subject to Clause 8.4, Reuters will be discharged from its obligation to supply a Reuters Service or carry out any other obligations under this Agreement (except the obligation to achieve the Migration Dependencies, but without prejudice to Clause 6.8) to the extent that a BT Failure prevents Reuters from supplying such Reuters Service or carrying out such obligation. | ||
| 8.4 | In the event that Reuters fails to comply with its obligation to comply with Clause 8.5.2, Clause 8.3 will not apply to the extent that BT could have avoided or mitigated the impact of the BT Failure if it had been informed of the BT Failure in accordance with Clause 8.5.2. | ||
| 8.5 | Reuters undertakes to, and shall procure that the relevant members of the Reuters Group shall, without undue delay inform BT in an appropriate manner of any: | ||
| 8.5.1 | delays or perceived delays or problems in the delivery of any Reuters Service of which it becomes aware; and | ||
| 8.5.2 | act or omission by any member of the BT Group of which it becomes aware which is having or is likely to have a detrimental effect on the provision of the Reuters Services or the performance by Reuters of | ||
11
| any of its obligations set out in this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the provision, delivery or completion of a Migration Dependency). | |||
| 8.6 | In the event that Reuters elects to use BT’s IP networks to deliver a product to its customers, Reuters shall test and certify that product over the test IP network provided by BT. | ||
| 8.7 | Reuters agrees to promote the benefits of meshing (both between Reuters Products and Reuters Products and third party customer products) to both its Personnel and its customers, including taking the following steps: Reuters agrees to maintain policies within the Reuters Group that support the principles of meshing to both its Personnel and its customers (including, but not limited to, promoting and supporting publicly in the relevant markets, and to Reuters existing and potential customers). In the event that BT or Reuters finds members of the Reuters Group not supporting this principle, Reuters shall take all reasonable steps to prevent (as soon as practicably possible) such Personnel continuing such activities provided that it is not against Reuters’ business interests. For the avoidance of doubt, it is Reuters’ intention that for New Services BT shall control the relevant physical access circuits. | ||
| * | |||
| 8.8.1 | Reuters acknowledges and agrees that it is not its intention to limit the BT Group’s revenues under this Agreement to the MRG. | ||
| * | |||
| 8.8.4 | In the event that Reuters becomes aware of a third party supplier relationship that it has which conflicts with the provisions of this Clause 8.8 it shall take steps as are necessary to remove such conflict prior to the Closing Date. |

| 9.3.1 | BT will, and will procure that its Personnel will, exercise its rights of access to the Facilities in compliance with: | |||
| (i) | all procedures and instructions which relate to the relevant Facility (including all relevant safety, security, confidentiality and operational procedures notified by Reuters to BT or its Personnel (including by way of on site instruction or reasonably prominent notice)) in each case, in respect of the Sites, to the extent that substantially equivalent procedures and instructions apply to the majority of any of Reuters’ other contractors or visitors at the relevant Facility; and | |||
| (ii) | all relevant health and safety requirements imposed by Applicable Legislation. | |||

| 9.3.3 | Subject to the limitations of liability set out in this Agreement, Reuters shall only be liable for the safety of BT Personnel exercising access rights pursuant to Clause 9.1 (Allow Access) or otherwise at the Facilities, to the extent such liability is imposed by Applicable Legislation. | |||

| 9.4.1 | Permissions and Consents | |||
| (i) | BT and the members of the BT Group shall be allowed to install Equipment at the Facilities. The location of Equipment at the Facilities shall be discussed in advance with Reuters, and BT shall take into account all reasonable concerns raised by Reuters, a member of the Reuters Group and/or its customers in relation to the location of Equipment, to the extent the same do not impact Service Levels. | |||
| (ii) | Throughout the term of this Agreement, Reuters will, at its own expense and prior to any installation work in respect of Equipment, obtain all necessary landlord, planning, environmental and other property related consents for the installation and use of the Equipment, including consents for any necessary alterations to buildings at the Facilities. In order that Reuters may obtain the consents described above, BT shall provide Reuters with reasonable prior notice of its intention to install the Equipment at the relevant Facility and, upon the reasonable request of Reuters, further provide (at its own cost) assistance to Reuters in seeking and obtaining such consents. | |||
| 9.4.2 | Deliveries and Maintenance | |||
| (i) | BT, other members of the BT Group and the Subcontractors shall be responsible at their own risk and expense for the delivery to, unloading and installation at and de-installation and removal from the Facilities of all the Equipment and any tools and equipment brought in to the Facilities by BT Personnel for the purposes of installation, de-installation, repair or maintenance (“BT Tools”). | |||
| (ii) | BT, other members of the BT Group and the Subcontractors shall be liable for the care, safety, storage and removal of all BT Tools and shall leave the Facilities in a clean, tidy and safe condition at the end of each visit. | |||
| 9.4.3 | Installed Equipment | |||
| With respect to the Equipment installed at the Facilities and the Communications Assets, Reuters shall, and shall procure that other members of the Reuters Group shall: | ||||
| (i) | not sell, assign, sub-let or part with possession or control of the Equipment or Communications Assets or any interest therein; | |||
| (ii) | not create any Encumbrances over the Equipment or Communications Assets; | |||

| (iv) | not disconnect the Equipment or Communications Assets from the relevant telecommunication network to which it is connected; | ||
| (v) | not change, remove or obscure any labels, plates, insignia, lettering or other markings that BT or the manufacturer has placed on the Equipment or Communications Assets; | ||
| (vi) | ensure that the same environmental conditions (including those relating to waterproofing, the absence of dust, security and air conditioning) as existed at the time the Equipment or Communications Assets were installed are maintained and that the exterior surfaces of the Equipment or Communications Assets are kept clean and (reasonable wear and tear excepted) in good condition; | ||
| (vii) | provide suitable electrical power supply and earthing arrangements for the Equipment and Communications Assets to the appropriate local standard; | ||
| (viii) | other than wear and tear which arises in the ordinary course, take reasonable steps to prevent damage to the Equipment and Communications Assets; | ||
| (ix) | not make any modifications to the Equipment or Communications Assets except as expressly required by BT; | ||
| (x) | take reasonable steps to prevent access to the Equipment and Communications Assets by unauthorised personnel; | ||
| (xi) | take reasonable steps to prevent Reuters Personnel from interfering or tampering with the Equipment or Communications Assets; | ||
| (xii) | prevent the operation of any equipment in close proximity to the Equipment or Communications Assets which Reuters knows (or would, if acting in accordance with Good Professional Practice, know) causes interference or disruption to such Equipment or Communications Assets or to the Services; and | ||
| (xiii) | upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement, surrender possession of the Equipment to BT, other members of the BT Group or their Subcontractors, pursuant to Schedule 15 (Exit Provisions). | ||
| 9.4.4 | Where Equipment that has been installed at a Facility in accordance with Good Professional Practice is subsequently lost, damaged or destroyed (except, in each case, through fair wear and tear) and BT Personnel replace or repair such Equipment to ensure the continued provision of the Services in accordance with this Agreement then Reuters shall pay the costs and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by BT with respect to its replacement or repair save to the extent such loss or damage is caused by or results from an act of BT Personnel. Where Equipment installed at BT premises is lost, damaged or destroyed and BT Personnel replace or repair such Equipment to ensure the continued provision of the Services in accordance with this Agreement then BT shall pay the costs and | ||
16
| expenses reasonably and properly incurred by BT with respect to its replacement or repair save to the extent such loss or damage is caused by or results from an act of Reuters Personnel or Reuters customers, where Reuters shall bear such costs and expenses. | |||||
| 9.4.5 | Save as provided in Clause 9.4.4, BT shall be responsible for all loss and damage (including fair wear and tear) to the Equipment at the Facilities, and shall replace and repair the Equipment (at its own cost) so as to ensure the continued provision of the Services in accordance with this Agreement. | ||||
| 9.5 | Communications Assets | ||||
| 9.5.1 | From the Signing Date until the Migration Date, Reuters shall, and shall procure that each other member of the Reuters Group shall, permit BT to use any Communications Assets required by BT for the provision of the Services and services to third parties. Reuters shall make available to BT such spares relating to the Communications Assets as it has at the Signing Date. | ||||
| 9.5.2 | Without prejudice to BT’s obligation to provide the Services, if any Communications Asset reaches the end of its anticipated or supportable lifespan or breaks down at any time during the term of this Agreement BT may, or may procure that a member of the BT Group, repair or replace such Communications Asset, and any such repair or replacement shall be entirely at BT’s own cost (except to the extent that such repair or replacement is required as a result of conduct of Reuters Personnel or customers of members of the Reuters Group). For the avoidance of doubt, Reuters shall not be under any obligation to repair or replace any Communications Assets in any circumstances. | ||||
| 9.5.3 | Reuters agrees to: | ||||
| (i) | assign or procure the assignment of any Communications Asset which is owned by a member of the Reuters Group and that it (or the relevant member of the Reuters Group) is freely able to assign; and | ||||
| (ii) | use all reasonable endeavours to assign or procure the assignment of all Communications Assets other than those referred to in Clause 9.5.3(i), | ||||
| in each case which are repaired or replaced in accordance with Clause 9.5.2 to BT and each such Communications Asset (to the extent it has been so assigned) shall from the date of repair or replacement be owned by BT or other relevant member of the BT Group (as relevant) and fall to be considered as Equipment. | |||||

| 11.1 | From the Closing Date BT will (as necessary) prepare and maintain in place such disaster recovery and business continuity plans: | |||
| 11.1.1 | in respect of the Existing Services, as were provided by the Radianz Group to Reuters Group during the Standard Period; | |||
| 11.1.2 | in respect of the New Services, as set out in Schedule 2 Part 1E; and | |||
| 11.1.3 | in respect of Additional Services (other than the ▇▇▇▇ Services to which the provisions of Schedule 2 Part 1E shall apply), as agreed between the Parties pursuant to the Change Control Procedure and, in the absence of such agreement, as set out in Schedule 2 Part 1E. | |||
| 11.2 | Except where provided otherwise in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any Force Majeure Event), nothing in Clause 11.1 shall remove BT’s obligation to provide the Services at the Service Levels. | |||
| 11.3 | Prior to the invocation of any disaster recovery plan BT shall, where it is reasonably able in the circumstances, give advance notice of that fact to Reuters. Where BT is unable in the circumstances to give advance notice it shall give notice of such invocation to Reuters promptly thereafter. | |||
| 11.4 | In the event of any incident, disaster or business interruption which results in the invocation of any disaster recovery plan by BT or Reuters: | |||
18
| 11.4.1 | the Parties shall ensure that a resilient independent communications infrastructure is in place between the Parties as is necessary to ensure that the Parties are able to provide and support continued communications at all times between the Parties irrespective of any such incident, disaster or business interruption; | |||
| 11.4.2 | the Parties shall ensure that during the period of invocation of any disaster recovery plan, each Party shall provide to the other in a timely manner ongoing information updates in respect of any such incident, disaster or business interruption in a format to be agreed between the Parties (acting reasonably and in good faith) by the Closing Date; and | |||
| 11.4.3 | BT shall, upon reasonable request by Reuters, make relevant BT Personnel available to participate in any update communications that take place between Reuters and its customers. BT acknowledges that it is current Reuters’ policy to verbally update its clients on an hourly basis and BT agrees that, upon reasonable notice, it shall participate in such communications upon Reuters’ request. | |||
| 11.5 | BT shall conduct at its own cost a test of its disaster recovery plans and procedures not less than once in each 12 month period after the Closing Date and otherwise as might reasonably be expected in accordance with Good Professional Practice and shall provide the results of each test (which shall, upon Reuters’ reasonable request, have been verified by an independent third party (provided that where Reuters requests such verification four times or more during the term of this Agreement, such independent verification shall be at Reuters’ cost)) to Reuters within 15 days of its completion. Where Reuters so requests, BT agrees that Reuters can (at its own cost) participate in such tests and in such case the Parties shall agree the scope of and approach to such testing in advance of each test. | |||
| 11.6 | At Reuters’ reasonable request, BT agrees to participate (to the extent reasonably required) in any test of Reuters’ disaster recovery plans. | |||
| 11.7 | At Reuters’ reasonable request, BT agrees to support and assist (to the extent reasonably required) Reuters upon any invocation of Reuters’ disaster recovery plans. | |||
| 11.8 | As an overriding principle, BT and Reuters agree to work together to optimise the preparation and ongoing appropriateness of their respective disaster recovery plans, with particular regard to the interaction of their respective plans. |

| (i) | if it is permissible under the Existing Services Contract, BT shall perform on behalf of Reuters the obligations of Reuters under that Existing Services arising after the Closing Date (excluding payment obligations), and if it is not so permissible, Reuters shall perform and BT shall reimburse Reuters reasonable charges to the extent such charges are not already recovered pursuant to Schedule 3; | ||
| (ii) | BT will fulfil in full on Reuters’ behalf the payment obligations under the Existing Service Contract to the extent they relate to the due and proper performance of the Existing Services, in accordance with the invoicing and payment procedures agreed between the Parties; and | ||
| (iii) | if it is permissible under the Existing Services Contract, Reuters shall terminate the Existing Services Contract at BT’s request, provided that BT has provided Reuters with reasonably adequate assurances that termination will not affect its ability to provide the Existing Services to the relevant Service Levels. | ||
| 16.1 | The initial Key BT Personnel engaged or involved in providing the Services shall be the BT Personnel listed in Schedule 11 (Relationship Management). | |||
| 16.2 | During the 12 months following the Closing Date, changes to the Key BT Personnel shall only be permitted where such changes are beyond the reasonable control of BT (save that BT may dismiss any member of the Key BT Personnel in accordance with its usual disciplinary or performance criteria procedures). Reuters shall have the right to be consulted in respect of any removal of Key BT Personnel during such 12 month period and Reuters’ prior written consent shall be required for the appointment of any replacement Key BT Personnel during such 12 month period (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). | |||
| 16.3 | Without prejudice to Clause 16.2, BT will use all reasonable endeavours to minimise changes of individual personnel who are engaged or involved in providing the Services. Save as provided in Clause 16.2, BT reserves the right to determine which individual personnel will perform the Services and to replace whether temporarily | |||
21
| 17.1.1 | maintain records in accordance with the higher of Good Professional Practice and its usual business practices; | |||
| 17.1.2 | in the case of records which relate to any amounts which are payable by Reuters under this Agreement, prepare and maintain those records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis; and | |||
| 17.1.3 | retain all such records for a period of no less than two years following the termination or expiry of this Agreement or, if longer, such period as may be required in order for BT to comply with its obligations in Clause 17.2 (Right of Inspection) or otherwise as required by Applicable Legislation. | |||
22
| 17.2 | Right of Inspection | |||
| 17.2.1 | BT shall provide to Reuters’ reputable third party auditors (“Auditor”) upon reasonable prior notice (which shall normally be not less than 10 Business Days, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing) to BT, access to copies of all relevant records, BT Personnel and BT Premises (but not the BT System) as is reasonably necessary or otherwise required by law for the purposes stated below. Save as provided in Clauses 17.3 and 17.4, such access shall be limited to one financial and one performance audit per 12-month period. Such access will be permitted at any time during normal office hours. Such access shall be provided solely for the purpose of performing audits and inspections of BT to: | |||
| (i) | verify the accuracy and completeness of BT's invoices; and | ||||
| (ii) | verify the accuracy of any of BT’s Service Level reports, | ||||
| provided that the Auditor shall enter into a confidentiality undertaking reasonably acceptable to BT (and no less onerous than the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement). | |||||
| 17.2.2 | Nothing in this Clause 17 shall require BT, or any member of the BT Group, to make available: (i) underlying or open-book financial information relating to BT’s or its Subcontractors’ cost of providing the Services or its profit margins; (ii) any information which is legally privileged; (iii) any information in relation to which BT owes a third party a duty of confidence; or (iv) any draft or preparatory documentation or correspondence; or (v) any information the disclosure of which would breach Applicable Legislation, including Data Protection Legislation. | |||
| 17.2.3 | Reuters will provide BT with a draft copy of any Auditor’s report and will give BT an opportunity to make representations to it and correct inaccuracies with respect to the contents of the draft Auditor’s report prior to the Auditor’s report being disclosed outside Reuters’ core Agreement management team. | |||
| 17.3 | Regulatory Audit and SAS-70 Obligations | |||
| 17.3.1 | Notwithstanding anything in this Clause 17, Reuters and each member of the Reuters Group shall have the right to conduct audits at such frequency and in such manner as is required by Applicable Legislation from time to time. | |||
| 17.3.2 | Commencing in the second calendar year of the Initial Term, and not more than once every twelve (12) months thereafter, on Reuters’ written request, BT will obtain a Type II report and examination prepared in accordance with Statement on Auditing Standards 70 (as amended from time to time) as promulgated by the American Institute of Public Certified Accounts (the "SAS-70 Report") of the Relevant Systems and Services from a reputable global accounting firm and provide a copy of the SAS-70 Report to Reuters. For these purposes, “Relevant Systems and Services” are: | |||
23
| (i) | all systems and services used to provide the New Services; | ||||
| (ii) | the systems and services of the BT Group (excluding the Radianz Group) used to provide the Existing Services; and | ||||
| (iii) | the systems and services of the Radianz Group used to provide the Existing Services to the extent that such systems and services were (a) the subject of a SAS-70 Report during the Standard Period, or (b) the subject of a change programme within the Radianz Group as at 22 February 2005 with the aim of achieving the standards required of a SAS-70 Report. In respect of Relevant Systems and Services referred to in this sub-Clause 17.3.2(ii)(b), the obligation in Clause 17.3.2 shall apply on and from the date on which such programme was (as at February 2005) planned to be complete. | ||||
| 17.3.3 | In the event that Reuters or its Auditors determine, acting reasonably, that such SAS-70 Report is insufficient or incomplete, then upon written notice from Reuters, BT shall provide the Auditors with access to and any assistance that they may reasonably require with respect to records required to complete the SAS-70 Report of the Services. | |||
| 17.3.4 | If, pursuant to Clause 17.3.3, the Auditor reviews Confidential Information belonging to BT, the Auditor shall enter into a confidentiality undertaking reasonably acceptable to BT (and no less onerous than the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement). | |||
| 17.3.5 | BT will not be required, pursuant to any provision of this Clause 17.3 to provide access to data of other customers of the BT Group. All information learned or exchanged in connection with the conduct of an audit under this Clause 17.3 shall, to the extent it is Confidential Information, be BT Confidential Information. | |||
| 17.4 | Security Audit | |||
| 17.4.1 | BT shall provide to the Auditors upon reasonable prior notice to BT (which shall normally be not less than 10 Business Days unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing), access to copies of all relevant records, BT Personnel and BT Premises (but not the BT System) as is necessary to enable an audit of the security arrangements, processes and procedures implemented and maintained by BT and the members of the BT Group in respect of the Existing Services or other Services in each case that are not certified as being BS7799 compliant (the “Security Audit”). The aim of the Security Audit is to ensure that such security arrangements, processes and procedures are no less rigorous than those implemented by Radianz in respect of services equivalent to the Existing Services provided during the Standard Period. In respect of the New Services, BT shall ensure that they comply with the Agreed Principles. | |||
| 17.4.2 | The right of Security Audit granted pursuant to Clause 17.4.1 may not be exercised more than once in any calendar year, provided that a Security Audit may be conducted in parts throughout a year, at such times as may be agreed between the Parties (such agreement not be | |||
24
unreasonably withheld or delayed). The right of Security Audit shall cease at the date being the later of: |
|||||
| (i) | the Migration Date; or | ||||
| (ii) | the date at which all New Services are certified as BS7799 compliant. | ||||
| 17.5 | BT to Provide Reasonable Assistance |
||||
| BT shall provide all reasonable assistance to Reuters and the Auditor in conducting any such audit and will provide the Auditor with such copies of relevant documents and information as the Auditor shall reasonably request. | |||||
| 17.6 | No Disruption | ||||
| BT will not be obliged to give Reuters or the Auditor access to any BT locations that do not pertain to the provision of Services under this Agreement. In performing any audits under this Clause 17, Reuters will, and will procure that the Auditor will, use reasonable endeavours to avoid unnecessary disruption of BT's operations and unnecessary interference with BT's ability to perform the Services in accordance with the Service Levels. Where an audit does disrupt BT’s provision of the Services, BT shall not be liable for any breach of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent such breach was directly caused by such disruption. | |||||
| 17.7 | Costs of Audits | ||||
| 17.7.1 | Each Party shall bear its own costs in relation to any audit under Clause 17 provided that: | ||||
| (i) | if the audit reveals a surplus or deficit of Service Charges claimed and/or any other amounts charged to Reuters by BT under this Agreement, the amount of the net overpayment or underpayment shall be paid by the relevant Party by way of credits or Service Charges in the next relevant invoice; and | ||||
| (ii) | where the audit reveals: (a) a substantive error in respect of any of BT’s Service Level reports; (b) an error in respect of BT's invoices which amounts to a discrepancy in relation to the financial matters of greater than 10%, or (c) that the security arrangements, processes and procedures implemented and maintained by BT and the members of the BT Group in respect of the Existing Services or other Services that are not certified as being BS7799 compliant are less rigorous than those implemented by Radianz in respect of services equivalent to the Existing Services provided during the Standard Period, BT shall pay the reasonable costs incurred by Reuters in relation to the related subsequent verification exercise conducted on behalf of Reuters (if any) in accordance with Clause 17.8 (other than Reuters’ internal management and handling costs). | ||||
| 17.7.2 | Any overpayment made by the Reuters Group revealed by an audit shall be credited by BT against the next and any subsequent invoices issued by BT under this Agreement for the Services, together with an additional amount of interest on that overpayment at the rate of 2% | ||||

| position on the dispute in question and its reasons for adopting that position in reasonable detail together with any relevant supporting documentation. | ||||
| 18.5 | Compromise Agreement after Resolution by Senior Representatives | |||
| If the Reuters Representative and the BT Representative reach agreement on the resolution of the relevant dispute, the Parties will each procure that the agreement is within 40 Business Days reduced to writing and signed by their respective duly authorised representative at which time it shall be and remain binding on the Parties. | ||||
| 18.6 | Status of Negotiations of Senior Representatives | |||
| All negotiations between the Reuters Representative and the BT Representative shall be conducted in strict confidence. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing (including any agreements made pursuant to Clauses 18.5 and 18.9), those negotiations shall be without prejudice to the rights of the Parties (and shall not be used in evidence or referred to in any way without the prior written consent of both Parties) in any future court or arbitration proceedings or expert determination except in so far as necessary to enforce a compromise agreement entered into pursuant to Clause 18.9 (Compromise Agreement after Resolution by Mediation). | ||||
| 18.7 | Further Escalation and Reference to Mediation | |||
| 18.7.1 | If any dispute arising under this Agreement is not resolved within 10 Business Days of the relevant meeting of the Reuters Representative and the BT Representative or, for whatever reason, the relevant meeting does not take place, then either Party may by notice to the other require that such dispute be resolved by escalation to the Joint Management Council referred to in Schedule 11 (Relationship Management) otherwise following the procedure and principles set out in Clauses 18.2 (Representatives to Attempt to Resolve Disputes) to 18.5 (Compromise Agreement after Resolution by Senior Representatives). | |||
| 18.7.2 | If such dispute is not resolved within twenty (20) Business Days from referral under Clause 18.7.1: | |||
| (i) | if and to the extent the dispute is of a technical nature, it may by agreement between the Parties be referred for determination to an expert (the “Expert”) pursuant to Clause 18.8 who shall be deemed to act as expert and not as arbitrator; or | ||||
| (ii) | in the case of all other disputes or where the Parties do not agree that a dispute of a technical nature be referred to the Expert, then either Party may by notice to the other refer such dispute to mediation in accordance with the CEDR Model Procedure. The Party serving that notice shall as soon as reasonably practicable apply to CEDR for a mediation of such dispute. If neither Party serves a notice on the other requiring mediation of the dispute within 10 Business Days of the expiry of the period referred to above or, if a Party does so but fails to apply to CEDR as soon as reasonably practicable, negotiations will be deemed to have failed. |
27
| 18.8 | Appointment of an Expert | |||
| 18.8.1 | The Expert shall be selected by agreement of the Parties or, failing agreement, within fourteen (14) Business Days after a request by one Party to the other, shall be chosen at the request of either Party by the President for the time being of the ICC International Centre for Expertise who shall be requested to choose a suitably qualified and experienced Expert for the dispute in question. | |||
| 18.8.2 | Fourteen (14) Business Days after the Expert has accepted the appointment the Parties shall each submit a written report on the dispute to the Expert and to each other and seven (7) Business Days thereafter shall submit any written replies they wish to make to the Expert and to each other. | |||
| 18.8.3 | The Expert shall have the same powers to require each Party to produce any documents or information to him and the other Party as an arbitrator and each Party shall in any event supply to him such information which it has and is material to the matter to be resolved and which it could be required to produce on discovery. | |||
| 18.8.4 | Each Party shall afford the Expert all necessary assistance which the Expert requires to consider the dispute including, but not limited to, full access to all correspondence and other documentation and materials relating to the Agreement. The Expert shall be instructed to deliver his determination, which shall include his reasons for that determination, to such Parties within fourteen (14) Business Days after the submission of the written reports pursuant to this Clause. | |||
| 18.8.5 | The Expert’s decision shall, in the absence of fraud, be final and binding on the Parties. The fees of the Expert shall be borne by the Parties in equal shares. Each Party shall bear its own internal and consultant costs, including legal costs, of its involvement in this Expert determination process. | |||
| 18.9 | Compromise Agreement after Resolution by Mediation | |||
| If the mediation is successful and the Parties reach agreement on the resolution of the relevant dispute, they will each procure that the agreement is reduced to writing and signed by their respective duly authorised signatories, at which point it shall be binding on the Parties. | ||||
| 18.10 | Jurisdiction and Court Proceedings | |||
| 18.10.1 | Subject to Clause 18.10.2, in respect of any dispute which arises out of or in connection with this Agreement, and which is not resolved in accordance with the procedure set out in Clauses 18.1 (How Disputes will be Handled) to 18.9 (Compromise Agreement after Resolution by Mediation) (inclusive), the Parties irrevocably agree that the courts of England shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle that dispute and that accordingly any proceedings may be brought in those courts (and no other courts). | |||
| 18.10.2 | Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Clause 18 nothing herein shall prevent a Party from taking steps to preserve or enforce its rights | |||

| 21.2 | Reuters’ Compliance with Applicable Legislation | |||
| Reuters shall provide, or procure the provision of, the Reuters Services in accordance with Applicable Legislation at least to the extent it did so in the Standard Period. | ||||
| 21.3 | Notification | |||
| 21.3.1 | Throughout the Term, BT shall promptly inform Reuters of changes in Applicable Legislation that will or are reasonably likely to affect, to a material degree, the provision of the Services by or on behalf of BT(save that in relation to each Non-Core Territory BT’s obligation shall not commence until such date as BT commences the provision of New Services in that territory, or when it becomes aware of a change in Applicable Legislation in that jurisdiction, whichever is the earlier); | |||
| 21.3.2 | Throughout the term of this Agreement, BT shall use reasonable endeavours to inform Reuters where it is aware that Reuters or another member of the Reuters Group is in breach of Applicable Legislation. | |||
| 21.3.3 | Throughout the term of this Agreement, Reuters shall use reasonable endeavours to inform BT where it is aware that BT or another member of the BT Group is in breach of Applicable Legislation. | |||
| 21.4 | Regulatory Change and Related Costs | |||
| 21.4.1 | Regulatory Changes shall be implemented using the Change Control Procedure. | |||
| 21.4.2 | To the extent that a Regulatory Change relates: | |||
| (i) | uniquely and specifically to Reuters, a member of the Reuters Group or products or services of either of them and the Regulatory Change increases BT’s costs of providing the Services then the Price Books shall be amended through the Change Control Procedure so that Reuters shall bear all of the direct and reasonable costs of BT and the BT Group in complying with such Regulatory Change; | |||
| (ii) | uniquely and specifically to BT, a member of the BT Group or products or services of either of them then the costs (if any) of implementing such Regulatory Change shall be borne by BT and no additional Service Charges shall be levied by BT; and | |||
| (iii) | to a matter which is not covered by (i) or (ii) above and the Regulatory Change increases BT’s costs of providing the Services then the Price Books shall be amended through the Change Control Procedure so that Reuters shall bear a fair and reasonable proportion of the increase in BT’s direct costs in providing the Services, such proportion to reflect the ratio of the revenue received by BT from customers which are affected by such change in Applicable Legislation against the revenue BT receives under this Agreement. As between Reuters | |||

| (ii) | of any Intellectual Property owned by the Reuters Group (other than any Reuters Content) to the extent the same was used by a member of the Radianz Group during the Standard Period, for the purposes of a member of the Radianz Group fulfilling its obligations to third parties to the extent owed during the Standard Period and substantially similar obligations; | ||||
| (iii) | to host and transmit the Reuters Content over the BT System solely to the extent necessary to provide or procure the provision of the Services; and | ||||
| (iv) | to the Reuters Information solely to the extent necessary to operate the Reuters Assets in order to provide or procure the provision of the Services (and services equivalent to the Services to third |

| 23.2 | Reuters Indemnity to BT | |||
| Reuters will indemnify BT against all claims and proceedings arising from infringement (or alleged infringement) of any Intellectual Property by reason of and to the extent caused by the receipt or use of the Reuters Services, the Reuters Intellectual Property or the Reuters Information by BT, any member of the BT Group or their Subcontractors in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. | ||||
| 23.3 | Terms and Conditions of Indemnities | |||
| 23.3.1 | As a condition of each indemnity in this Clause 23, the Party receiving the indemnity (the “Claiming Party”) will: | |||
| (i) | notify the Party giving the indemnity (the “Indemnifier”) promptly in writing of any allegation of infringement upon first becoming aware of the claim or proceedings; | ||||
| (ii) | make no admission relating to the infringement; | ||||
| (iii) | allow the Indemnifier to conduct all negotiations and proceedings and at the Indemnifier’s request and cost give the Indemnifier all reasonable assistance; and | ||||

| (i) | modifying the Services so as to avoid the infringement; | ||||
| (ii) | replacing any part of the affected Services with a non-infringing part; or | ||||
| (iii) | procuring a licence in respect of such third party Intellectual Property, | ||||
| in each case without the requirement to follow the Change Control Procedure provided that any such modification or replacement does not materially affect the performance of the Services. | |||||
| 23.3.3 | The indemnities in this Clause 23 do not apply to infringements to the extent they are caused by: | ||||
| (i) | Reuters’ use of the Services in conjunction with other apparatus or software, in each case which was not supplied by BT and which BT did not know or, if acting in accordance with Good Professional Practice, would not have known that Reuters would use in conjunction with the Services; and | ||||

| (ii) | compliance with instructions, designs or specifications made or issued by the Claiming Party or on the Claiming Party’s behalf where the Personnel of the Indemnifier receiving such instructions, designs or specifications could not reasonably have known that compliance with such instructions, designs or specifications would infringe third party Intellectual Property. |

Amendment to the Network Services Agreement: joint re-planning exercise
We refer to our recent meeting and also to the Network Services Agreement dated 9 March 2005 between Reuters Limited and British Telecommunications plc (the Agreement). The parties acknowledge that although significant progress has been made with the migration activities under the Agreement, there is a need to undertake certain additional work that was not envisaged as at the Signing Date. Accordingly, the Parties wish to suspend (for a limited period) targets and commitments under the Migration Plan including, in particular, Migration Milestones and corresponding Migration Dependencies under Schedules 4 and 9 of the Agreement respectively. This letter records our agreement as follows:
| 1 | The Parties agree to work together in good faith to review and reset: (i) the Migration Plan on or before 30th September 2005 (the Re-Planning Date) and (ii) the Migration Milestones and Migration Dependencies (including, without limitation, deleting or amending existing milestones or dependencies, adding further Migration Milestones and/or Migration Dependencies, and revising the applicable due dates) by the Re-Planning Date. | |
| 2 | From the date of this letter to (i) the revised Migration Plan date (including amendments to the Migration Dependencies and Migration Milestones) under paragraph 1 above, or (ii) the End Date (as described in paragraph 4 below) (the Negotiation Period), whichever is the earlier: | |
| (a) | the migration targets and commitments set out in the Migration Plan are hereby suspended; | |
| (b) | the Migration Milestones and Migration Dependencies as set out in the Agreement are hereby suspended; and | |

| (c) | each Party hereby agrees to waive any rights it may have against the other under the Agreement arising during the Negotiation Period in respect of such Migration Milestones or Migration Dependencies (as applicable) and such migration targets and commitments set out in the Migration Plan. | |
| For the avoidance of doubt, each Party agrees that there is no obligation on the other to pay the Migration Surcharge or Migration LDs (as applicable) in respect of the Negotiation Period. | ||
| 3 | The Parties agree, recognising all of the progress achieved by the Parties to date in respect of migration activities under the Agreement, to continue working and maintain momentum towards migration to the New Services, including the activities set out in paragraph 1 (Maintain Momentum) of the Minutes of the BT/Reuters Senior Steering Group Review dated 12th August 2005. | ||
| 4 | In the unlikely event that the Parties fail to reach agreement on the revised Migration Plan including amendments to the Migration Dependencies and Migration Milestones under paragraph 1 above by 31lst October 2005 or such other date as agreed between the parties (the End Date), the Parties agree that: | ||
| (a) | the suspension and waiver under paragraph 2 above shall no longer apply; | ||
| (b) | save to the extent varied under paragraph 4 (c) below, migration commitments and targets set out in the Migration Plan shall on and from the End Date be as originally stated in the Agreement as at the Signing Date, subject to any subsequent amendments agreed between the Parties; | ||
| (c) | the Migration Milestones and Migration Dependencies shall be amended to read as follows: | ||
| i) | where the due date for any Migration Milestone or Migration Dependency obligation falls within the first anniversary of the Closing Date, such due date shall be extended by a duration commensurate with the Negotiation Period; and | ||
| ii) | where the due date for any Migration Milestone or Migration Dependency obligation falls within the second anniversary of the Closing Date, such due date shall be extended by a duration commensurate with half the Negotiation Period. | ||
| (d) | each Party’s rights and obligations in respect of the Migration Surcharge and Migration LDs (as applicable) shall resume from the End Date. | ||

Dear ▇▇▇▇,
Side letter to the Network Services Agreement

The Parties acknowledge that BT has delivered a draft of such list received by Reuters on 28th April 2005 and that Reuters has not had an opportunity to review such draft prior to such date.

Dear ▇▇▇▇,
Side Letter Number 2 to the Network Services Agreement
I refer to the Network Services Agreement dated 9 March 2005 between Reuters Limited (“Reuters”) and British Telecommunications plc (“BT”) (the “Agreement”). Except where expressly provided otherwise, capitalised terms in this letter shall have the same meaning as given to that term in the Agreement. Each of the matters set out below are amendments to the Agreement in accordance with Clause 42.1 of the Agreement.
Distance insensitivity of tail circuits
For the avoidance of doubt, further to the definition of “Price Book Parameter” set out in paragraph 1 of Schedule 6 to the Agreement and to the requirements of paragraph 2.1 of Schedule 6 to the Agreement, the Parties hereby agree that the prices allocated for Connections in the Managed Tail Circuit Price Book and the With Tail Circuit Price Book shall be determined without reference to the length of the tail circuit between a Site and the relevant BT Point of Presence (“Tail Circuit”).
Exception One
However, the Parties agree that no more than once in any 12 month period BT may take an inventory of the average actual lengths of the Tail Circuits and the generic distribution of those Tail Circuit lengths across the globe. BT shall disclose the results of such an inventory to Reuters. In the event that the global distribution of Tail Circuit lengths at the date of the inventory is materially different from the global distribution of Tail Circuit lengths under the Starting Inventory, and such difference is sufficiently out of proportion to the Starting Inventory to have a material adverse impact on BT’s costs on a global basis, then BT may raise this matter (acting reasonably and in good faith) at the next meeting of the Joint Management Council. Following that:
| (a) | The Parties will enter into good faith negotiations to agree an appropriate revision of the relevant Price Books within 30 days from the date of the meeting of the Joint Management Council (or such other date as agreed between the parties); and | |
| (b) | Such revision shall take into account: | |
| i. | The actual (or in the case of Exception Two below the proposed) distribution of the Tail Circuit lengths ; | |
| Reuters Limited | ||
| ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ | ||
| ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ | Tel (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ | |
| A subsidiary of Reuters Group Plc – Reg. Office as above – Reg No. 145516 England | ||
2
| ii. | The sensitivity of pricing in any city, country or region (as relevant) to the length of Tail Circuits; | |
| iii. | The associated increase in BT’s costs in any city, country or region (as relevant); | |
| iv. | The associated decrease in BT’s costs any other city, country or region (as relevant). | |
| (c) | Any revision to the Price Book shall come into effect on the first day of the next calendar month following written agreement of the revision (or such other date as agreed between the parties). | |
Exception Two
In addition, in the event that Reuters changes its products or sales proposition in a manner which is likely to affect the distribution of Tail Circuits lengths in any country or countries it shall consult with BT in order to mitigate any material adverse impact on either Party’s costs. Where either Party considers that the changes will have a material adverse impact on their own costs on a global basis, then either Party may raise this matter (acting reasonably and in good faith) at the next meeting of the Joint Management Council. Following that, the Parties shall follow the procedure set out under paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above.
Free trials
For the purposes of this Side Letter Number 2, “Pre-Provisioned” shall mean already physically installed before the date of an order from Reuters to activate the capacity.
Further to Clause 8.7 of the Agreement and Schedule 6 to the Agreement, to encourage existing customers of the members of the Reuters Group (“Customers”) to take Telecommunications Services from Reuters on the Delivery Network, BT will make Delivery Network capacity available to Customers during the term of the Agreement, without charge to Reuters or Customer, (the “Free Trial”) in accordance with and subject to the following provisions:
| (a) | Reuters may request the activation of this Free Trial to particular Customer Facilities through the standard ordering procedure. |
| (b) | Requested capacity must be Pre-Provisioned and available. Moreover, BT does not commit to providing a Free Trial where it has forecast orders for Extranet services that would utilise the identified capacity. BT will notify Reuters promptly of any such unavailability |
| (c) | Subject to (b) above, BT will commit to provide at least 20 Free Trials per month if requested by Reuters. |
| (d) | All Free Trials shall end after three (3) months from the start of the Free Trial (the “Free Trial Period”), unless cancelled by the Customer or terminated by Reuters under the terms of the Free Trial agreement beforehand. |
3
| (e) | Upon acceptance of a Free Trial order, BT will commit to providing the Free Trial irrespective of other requirements for the capacity that may arise during the Free Trial Availability Period. |
| (f) | At the end of the Free Trial Period, BT will begin charging for the capacity as per Schedule 6 to the Agreement (without reference to this Side Letter Number 2) unless notified by Reuters that the Service has ceased. BT shall notify Reuters at least 14 days on advance of its intention to start charging to allow Reuters time to liaise with Customers to determine whether they will cease or continue with the service. |
For the avoidance of doubt, BT shall provide the same support associated with an installation or service upgrade, and meet the same SLA, with regards to any Free Trial as it does for any Service to which standard Service Charges would apply. Moreover, the provision of extra capacity by BT under this Free Trial scheme will not compromise the SLAs of existing customers.
BT & Reuters will monitor the success and costs associated with the Free Trial scheme on an ongoing basis to ensure that it is a successful scheme. Any requirement from either party to change the scheme should be raised and discussed in good faith at the monthly meeting of the Joint Management Council.

Dear ▇▇▇▇,
Side letter to the Network Services Agreement
I refer to the Network Services Agreement dated 9 March 2005 between Reuters Limited (“Reuters”) and British Telecommunications plc (“BT”) (the “Agreement”). Except where expressly provided otherwise, capitalised terms in this letter shall have the same meaning as given to that term in the Agreement.
Price Book
In accordance with Clause 42.1 of the Agreement, Reuters hereby agrees to extend the date by which BT shall prepare and provide to Reuters the Price Books, as required by paragraph 2.2 of Schedule 6 to the Agreement, until close of business on Friday 13 May.
List of PoPs
In accordance with Clause 42.1 of the Agreement, the Parties hereby agree to extend the date by which the Parties shall agree the list set out in Appendix A to Schedule 2 Part 1B, as required by paragraph 5.4.1 of Schedule 2 Part 1B to the Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that BT has delivered a draft of such list received by Reuters on 28th April 2005 and that Reuters has not had an opportunity to review such draft prior to such date. Accordingly, the Parties agree that they shall now discuss in good faith such draft list with a view to finalising the list by close of business on Friday 13 May.
Satellite novations
In accordance with Clause 42.1 of the Agreement, the Parties hereby agree that to the extent a Third Party Satellite Contract contracted via Reach, lnmedia or Eutelsat (as such services are described in Appendix A to Schedule 2 Part 3B of the Agreement) is not novated to BT prior to the Closing Date as required by paragraph 4.1 of Schedule 2 Part 3B and such novation is completed by close of business on Friday 27th May, each such novated Third Party Satellite Contract shall become a Novated Satellite Contract and subject to the terms and conditions of the NSA from the date of such novation agreement or (if earlier) the date on which such novation takes effect in accordance with its terms.

For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Reuters has paid or pays an invoice from a third party provider delivered pursuant to a Novated Satellite Contract in respect of services provided after the Effective Date or (if later) the date on which the applicable novation agreement takes effect (in each case the “Novation Date”), BT shall, within 30 days of receipt of an invoice from Reuters for the same, reimburse Reuters in full for all amounts paid by Reuters in respect of such services delivered in the period on and/or from the Novation Date.
Nothing in this Letter Agreement shall affect or prejudice BT’s right to charge Reuters the charges for Satellite Services in accordance with paragraph 8.1 of Schedule 2 Part 3B from the Novation Date.
Without prejudice to the provisions of any novation agreement entered into pursuant to paragraph 4.1 of Schedule 2 Part 3B, with respect to BT’s obligations pursuant to paragraph 8.2 of Schedule 2 Part 38, Reuters hereby irrevocably relieves BT of such obligations in relation to the Third Party Satellite Contracts for lnmedia, Eutelsat and Reach.

| (a) | that the liability for providing IME/Editorial Services will not be assumed by BT from Closing Date pursuant to Schedule 13, Paragraph 1.1.6 (i); but that | |

3
| member of the Radianz Group as appropriate) with a view to transferring such IME/Editorial Services from Reuters to BT by [29th July 2005]; and therefore | |
| (c) | the effect of such agreement is that the employment of any of the IME/Editorial Employees who have agreed to accept contracts of employment with BT will transfer to BT in accordance with Schedule 12, Paragraph 1.1 .6(ii) or a member of the Radianz Group with effect from the date BT and Reuters agree. In the event that such date is prior to the date on which Reuters and BT agree that BT will assume the IME/Editorial Services in accordance with (b) above, then BT shall make the IME/Editorial Employees available to Reuters in order that Reuters may continue to utilise them to provide the IME/Editorial Services until the date on which BT assumes responsibility for provision of the lME/Editorial Services from Reuters; and |
| (d) | the agreement in (a), (b) and (c) above will not prejudice the remaining provisions of Schedule 13, paragraph 1.1.6. |

Dear ▇▇▇▇▇
Amendment to the Network Services Agreement: joint re-planning exercise – further extension
I refer to our jointly agreed further amendment of the 31st January 2005 to the joint re-planning exercise, extending the end of the Negotiation Period to 17th February 2006, and further amending the terms of the Network Services Agreement dated 9th March 2005 between Reuters Limited and British Telecommunications plc (the “Agreement”).
In view of the fact that the extended end of the Negotiation Period has elapsed, and the parties have not yet reached final agreement on the revised Migration Plan, BT proposes to further extend the End Date, Replanning Date and therefore the end of the Negotiation Period until 14th March 2006 or the date upon which agreement is reached between the parties on the revised Migration Plan, Migration Milestones and Migration Dependences, whichever occurs sooner, in order to provide the parties with a further opportunity to continue to work in good faith to agree mutually acceptable terms associated with such revised Migration Plan.
BT would propose such further extension to the Negotiation Period to be otherwise exactly in accordance with the terms of the original Re-Planning Exercise Letter.
All capitalised terms in this letter not defined herein are defined in the joint re-planning exercise letter dated 17th August 2005 (the “Re-Planning Exercise Letter”).
If you are in agreement with the above, please sign and date the attached copy of this letter to confirm Reuters agreement to the amendments to the Agreement effected by this letter.
Yours sincerely

Services Description
Part
1B
New Services
| 1 | Definitions | |||
| For the purposes of this Schedule, capitalised terms shall have the following meanings | ||||
| “Enterprise Network” has the meaning given to it in paragraph 2.1; | ||||
| “Delivery Network” has the meaning given to it in paragraph 2.1; | ||||
| 2 | Physical Networks | |||
| 2.1 | The New Services are the four areas below: | |||
| 2.1.1 | Core Network (Platinum ring). Core Network is a dedicated network that: | |||
| (i) | connects the Main Technical Centres as at Migration Date (up to a maximum of * in total); and | |||
| (ii) | supports connectivity for IDN, BDN, Dealing & Matching and DECNet core network. | |||
| 2.1.2 | Enterprise Network (IME and editorial): A network that: | |||
| (i) | connects the Main Technical Centres to all other Sites; and | |||
| (ii) | supports operations, product development and enterprise services, but is not directly involved in product delivery to Customers’ Facilities. | |||
| 2.1.3 | Delivery Network (Customer network): A network that: | |||
| (i) | connects Customer Facilities to Main Technical Centres, either directly or via collocation facilities; | |||
| (ii) | can provide Connections (a) between Facilities and (b) between Main Technical Centres. | |||
| 2.1.4 | The Non-Migrating Services are Existing Services that shall be retained after the Migration Date and shall be deemed to be New Services from that date. The Fast Access Terminal (FAT) network is one such Non-Migrating Service and will be retained as asynchronous presentation in a limited number (no more than 50) of Facilities, at Reuters’ request. Those FATs which are not retained as asynchronous will be migrated to either the Enterprise or Delivery network during the period between the Closing Date and the Migration Date. | |||
| 2.2 | The Core Network is an ATM or equivalent network which provides connectivity between the Main Technical Centres, with optional IP presentation. | |||
| 2.3 | The Enterprise Network and Delivery Network are IP networks. | |||
* Text has been redacted for confidentiality
2
| 3 | Service Categories | ||
| Each Connection provided as part of a New Service shall have a Service Category attributed to it. Nine non-exhaustive Service Categories have been defined to support the delivery of Reuters Customer Services to Customers. Against each Service Category, the following represents a typical configuration: | |||
| 3.1.2 | Platinum (Platinum Ring Only): * availability, to have the Service Levels as set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels & Service Credits); | ||
| 3.1.3 | Gold Service Categories: * availability achieved with * CPE and * POP and * Connections, to have the Service Levels as set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels & Service Credits); | ||
| 3.1.4 | Silver Service Categories: * availability achieved with * CPE and * POP and * Connections, to have the Service Levels as set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels & Service Credits); | ||
| 3.1.5 | Bronze+: * availability achieved with * CPE and * POP with Connection between CPE & POP and digital dial-backup, and to have the Service Levels as set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels & Service Credits); and * | ||
| 3.1.6 | Bronze: * availability achieved with * CPE and * POP with * Connection between CPE & POP, and to have the Service Levels as set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels & Service Credits). | ||
| 4 | Geographical Capability | ||
| 4.1 | BT will provide Reuters with tiered network levels of service that vary in cost, uptime and performance by geography. | |||
| 4.2 | There are six Facility groups defined as follows: | |||
| 4.2.1 | Reuters MTCs; | |||
| 4.2.2 | Sites which are not MTCs (known commonly as Reuters Business Locations); | |||
| 4.2.3 | Customer Facilities and other Facilities: | |||
| (i) | Group A - Major financial centres, full-tick IDN delivery locations; | |||
| (ii) | Group B - Other key financial centres to Customer Distribution; | |||
| (iii) | Group C - Other Reuters’ Facilities and financial centres; | |||
| (iv) | Group D - All other Facilities. | |||
| The Appendix to Schedule 5 Part 2 lists the locations covered by each of the above groups. For the avoidance of doubt, any one location may be covered by more than one such group. | ||||
| 4.3 | Service Categories shall be available to the Facilities groups in accordance with the following table: | |||

| 5 | New Service Boundary | ||
| 5.1 | Enterprise & Delivery Network Service Boundary | ||
| The Service boundary for Facilities shall be at the Reuters or Customer (as appropriate) facing Ethernet port on the final BT-provided CPE. See Diagram 1 at Appendix B. | |||
| 5.2 | Core Network Service Boundary | ||
| The Service boundary for the Core Network will be either an ATM or Ethernet interface. See Diagram 2 at Appendix B. | |||
| 5.3 | Direct Connect | ||
| The Service Boundary for the Direct Connect network is described in Diagram 3 at Appendix B. | |||
| 5.4 | Boundary for IDN DVB POP | ||
| 5.4.1 | When requested by Reuters, BT will house a Reuters-provided satellite dish and related server equipment within a BT Point of Presence (POP) set out in the list in Appendix A (or a list substantially the same as that in Appendix A) and use terrestrial services to deliver MPLS connectivity to a Facility, using (without limitation) that dish. The Parties will work together in good faith to complete the list currently set out in Appendix A by the Closing Date, and thereafter if not completed by that date. | ||
| 5.4.2 | Demarcation points in such circumstances will be the end of Reuters-supplied cables from the racks to the input port of the first item of BT-provided Equipment, unless otherwise agreed in writing. | ||
| 5.4.3 | BT shall provide environmental support for the IDN DVB POP rack and equipment and, on request from Reuters, BT shall: | ||
* text has been redacted for confidentiality

| (i) | power cycle Reuters’ equipment within the POP; | |||
| (ii) | connect the end of the Reuters-supplied cables to the BT communications equipment and power supplies; and | |||
| (iii) | such other services as may from time to time be agreed between the Parties. | |||
| 6 | Service Differentiation | |||
| 6.1 | The final design for Connections on the Enterprise and Delivery Networks will be agreed between the Parties as appropriate, but (subject to agreement otherwise between the Parties otherwise) the design will achieve as a minimum the following four criteria (or equivalent): | |||
| 6.1.1 | Service Category being the category in respect of the relevant Service Levels for the Service as set out in the table in paragraph 3.1.1 of Schedule 5 Part 2; | |||
| 6.1.2 | Service Class (as defined in paragraph 6.3); | |||
| 6.1.3 | IP level. Traffic would be classified based on any combination of: | |||
| (i) | Source Address and mask; | |||
| (ii) | Destination Address and mask; | |||
| (iii) | Protocol number; | |||
| (iv) | TCP/UDP source or destination port numbers; and | |||
| for the avoidance of doubt, there will be at least one IP level for each Reuters Customer Service; and | ||||
| 6.1.4 | required bandwidth allocation. | |||
| 6.2 | The design for the Platinum Network shall be agreed by the Parties acting reasonably and in good faith and shall be fixed for the term of the Agreement (unless as otherwise agreed between the Parties in writing). | |||
| 6.3 | Within the Enterprise Network and the Delivery Network, all connections of each Reuters Product Group (meaning a collection of services delivered to Customers by Reuters which share common network and security requirements such that they can be treated as a single service for analysis purposes) will be consolidated into one of a number of Service Classes (up to a maximum of 25 Service Classes). “Service Classes” means classes of services each of which have unique attributes which allow them to be differentiated from each other in terms of attributes such as priority to the extent reasonably possible. Initially, eight Service Classes will be provided (as per paragraphs 6.5 and 6.6): | |||
| a) | BDN | |||
| b) | IDN | |||
| c) | FX Transactions | |||
| d) | Equity Transactions | |||
| e) | Reuters Hosted Product Delivery | |||
| f) | MDN | |||
5
| g) | Management | |||
| h) | Reuters Hosted Inter-Data Centre Connectivity | |||
| 6.4 | For the avoidance of doubt, the above criteria permit more than one Service Class per Reuters Product Group or multiple Reuters Product Groups per Service Class. | ||
| 6.5 | Each Service Class will be assigned a guaranteed bandwidth on a per-Facility basis (for example, for Site A, web services could be assigned 64k and IDN/BDN 128k, whilst on site B web services could be assigned 128k and IDN/BDN 192k). In each case, the Customer Facility will have a total bandwidth into the network of the sum of the bandwidths guaranteed to the Service Classes for that Facility, for Site A 192k, and Site B 320k. Each Service Class will be guaranteed its guaranteed bandwidth, and will have access to bandwidth not in use by other Services Classes. | ||
| 6.6 | It must be possible and BT shall provide at Reuters’ request a Service Class which is allocated a fixed bandwidth that cannot be affected by any other Service Class or burst out of its allocated bandwidth. | ||
| 7 | Switch Installation | ||
| If a Customer requires a switch in connection with its receipt of New Services under this Agreement, Reuters shall if required order such switch and relevant support services via the price book in Schedule 6 (Service Charges). | |||
| 8 | Hosted RSS | ||
| 8.1 | If mutually agreed between the Parties (acting reasonably and in good faith) that it is beneficial to install RSS servers for the purpose of distributing IDN data in a BT PoP then Reuters will supply the necessary equipment, BT will house that equipment in such BT PoP at no additional charge, Reuters will remotely manage that equipment and BT will provide such services as set out in paragraph 5.4.2. | ||
| 9 | Generic CPE Specification | ||
| 9.1 | At each Facility BT shall provide the following minimum CPE specifications: | ||
| 9.1.1 | Main Technical Centre: A bespoke design per MTC, allocating sufficient ports as necessary to deliver the Services in accordance with the applicable Service Levels. The equipment delivered by BT shall consist of, as a minimum, routers and ATM switches, with the number of LAN switches deemed necessary by BT to interconnect the BT equipment. | ||
| 9.1.2 | All other Facilities: In all cases, an Ethernet interface on a Customer-facing BT supplied device, typically a router, but in certain configurations a LAN switch will be provided of varying speed and interface type. The CPE interface will also support an IEEE 802.1q VLAN interface. Where X.25 is being supported, the X.25 interface will be a serial port acting as an X.25 DCE. | ||
| 9.2 | The CPE will support the Internet Protocol (IP) as the Customer access protocol and the protocol into the network. The only additional protocols supported are X.25 for Contributions and DECNet between the MTCs. | ||
6
| 10 | IP Addressing | ||
| Unless otherwise agreed between the Parties, the IP Addressing for Services will continue to be provided as they were for the Existing Services. | |||
| 11 | Domain Name Services (DNS) | ||
| 11.1 | Unless otherwise agreed, the DNS for Services will continue to be provided as they were for the Existing Services. However, DNS may be migrated over time to a new DNS software version or may be replaced by a new software product, in each case as agreed with Reuters from time to time (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld) at no additional cost to Reuters. The capacity delivered will be baselined at the existing number of DNS lookups and a growth of a maximum of 20% per annum is permitted without additional cost to Reuters. | ||
| 12 | X.25 Contributions | ||
| 12.1 | Some Customers contribute data to IDN via X.25. An IP-based option is available and Customers are being actively migrated to it by Reuters to the extent that those Customers wish to be upgraded to an IP network. If Customers do not wish to be upgraded to the IP-based option, Reuters will continue to require X.25 support for such Customers. Where appropriate to meet this requirement, BT will provide an X.25 DCE logical interface at the Customer Facility presented on an RS232 physical interface. | ||
| 12.2 | At the appropriate Main Technical Centres, BT will provide an X.25 DCE logical interface at the Customer Facility presented on a V.11 physical interface. | ||
| 13 | Convergence | ||
| 13.1 | Gold and Silver No Converge: certain Service Classes (e.g. IDN and BDN) require connectivity on Connections which do not reroute on to each other. In this configuration, traffic is sent to the Customer Facility as two identical streams of data. Each of these is routed down a different physical Connection to the Customer Facility. Under failure of one of these Connections, the IDN and BDN traffic which was transported down that Connection must not be re-routed onto the remaining Connection. Separation within the IP network is not required. | ||
| 13.2 | Gold and Silver Fast Converge: This Service Level provides a resilient Service path made up of two different physical Connections (e.g. for Matching). In the event of a failure of the Connection carrying the data stream, the traffic which was transported down that Connection must be re-routed down the other Connection * of the failure occurring. | ||
| 13.3 | Gold and Silver Standard: This Service Level provides a resilient Service path in the same manner as Gold and Silver Fast Converge, provided that, in the event of a failure of the Connection carrying the data stream, the traffic which was transported down that Connection must be re-routed down the other Connection within the applicable time period set out in Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels and Service Credits – New Services). | ||
| 13.4 | Bronze Categories: The Service paths for this Service Level are made up of only one Connection, so convergence is not applicable. | ||
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
7
| 14 | Carriers | ||
| 14.1 | At Reuters’ prior written request, and where BT has not already contracted with a specific local carrier, BT shall contract with such Reuters’ requested carrier subject to payment of reasonable incremental charges. | ||
| 14.2 | BT’s obligation to meet the relevant Service Levels shall be limited to the service levels that the local carrier has contractually committed to BT to achieve. BT shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify Reuters in writing of any such impact (or anticipated impact) on the Service Levels. | ||
| 15 | Inventory | ||
| BT shall comply with the requirements referred to in Clause 27 (Inventory). | |||

Schedule
2
Services Description
Part
1C
Service Management
For the purposes of this Schedule, the following capitalised term shall have the corresponding meaning:
| “Reuters Service Owners” | means Reuters’ heads of development, operations, product management, CRMC, professional services group and other key service functions within the Reuters Group; |
Section A of this Schedule sets out the service management levels for the Existing Services and Section B of this Schedule sets out the service management levels for the New Services.
| SECTION A: EXISTING SERVICES | ||
| 1 | SCOPE | |
| 1.1 | This Section A of Schedule 2 Part 1C sets out the arrangements for monitoring the operational service performance of the Existing Services by means of the Global Service Forum. | |
| 1.2 | Service management for Existing Services shall be undertaken in accordance with practices adopted by the Radianz Group during the Standard Period. | |
| 2 | GLOBAL SERVICE FORUM | |
| 2.1 | The objectives of the Global Service Forum are to: | |
| 2.1.1 | provide top-down governance for the most significant Service issues; | |
| 2.1.2 | provide a system for triage of serious cross functional Service issues and problem resolution; | |
| 2.1.3 | provide senior management in Reuters with visibility of very significant problems affecting the service provided to Reuters’ customers; | |
| 2.1.4 | apply the right level of management control/priority on current high severity Service issues; | |
| 2.1.5 | provide input to Reuters Service Owners to allow underlying issues to be addressed; | |
| 2.1.6 | improve the Existing Services and the perception of Services provided by BT across Reuters; and | |
| 2.1.7 | identify the most critical product and Service issues from all Incident reports received by the CRMCs. | |
2
| 3 | BT MEMBERSHIP | |
| BT will be a full member of the Global Service Forum and a maximum of two BT representative(s) will attend each meeting to address BT related issues. | ||
| 4 | ORGANISATION | |
| 4.1 | The Global Service Forum shall meet weekly in London. | |
| 4.2 | Reuters will provide BT with a copy of each draft Global Service Forum report that is produced reasonably prior to the meeting. | |
| 4.3 | GMC Weekly Service Reports are produced by the Global Service Forum. | |
| 5 | SERVICE PERFORMANCE | |
| 5.1 | Service performance shall be monitored by means of the review of Incidents categorised by Reuters CRMCs into severity levels 1, 2 and 3 in accordance with paragraph 3 of Schedule 5 Part 1 (Service Levels: Existing Services). | |
| 5.2 | An Incident will be categorised by severity level by the Global Service Forum in accordance with the following categories: | |
| 5.2.1 | Delayed Fix (i.e. an outstanding Incident that is not being resolved through normal channels in a timely manner); | |
| 5.2.2 | Heads up (i.e. a notification to Global Service Forum members of a new Incident and its current status (open or closed) on a 'for your information' basis); | |
| 5.2.3 | Long-term (i.e. an Incident: (i) which frequently appears in the Global Service Forum report; (ii) in relation to which an Incident trend is identified; or (iii) which requires tracking on a weekly basis). | |
| 5.3 | When an Incident is categorised as "Long-term" under paragraph 5.2. above then the Incident will re-appear automatically at the weekly Global Service Forum until resolved. | |
| 6 | SCOPE |
| 6.1 | This Section B of Schedule 2 Part 1C sets out the service management levels applicable for the New Services. |
| 6.2 | BT shall develop and maintain a Customer Operations Manual containing relevant operational details in respect of its management of the New Services and all associated service management procedures. BT shall make copies of the Customer Operations Manual available to Reuters on a regular basis and in a reasonable manner to be agreed by the Parties. |
| 7 | SERVICE DESK |
| 7.1 | BT shall make available to Reuters the Service Desk 24 hours per day / 7 days a week / 365/6 days per year. |
| 7.2 | The Service Desk shall be the primary point of contact for day to day issues relating to the New Services including: |
3
| 7.2.1 | Incident reporting; | |
| 7.2.2 | problem escalation; | |
| 7.2.3 | order management; and | |
| 7.2.4 | moves, adds and changes. | |
| 7.3 | All initial contact with or by the Service Desk shall be conducted in English. |
| 7.4 | BT shall maintain an on-site presence at the CRMCs for the duration of the Agreement. |
| 8 | INCIDENT MANAGEMENT |
| 8.1 | BT shall record all Incidents on the Service Desk’s trouble ticketing system reported to it and provide Reuters with a unique BT identifier relating to each Incident. The classification of each Incident will be assigned by BT in accordance with the severity criteria set out in paragraph 4.1 of Schedule 5, Part 2. In respect of the measurement of Service Levels, the time at which an Incident occurs shall be the starting point for measurement of the Service Levels. |
| 8.2 | Reuters shall record the details of all Incidents reported to the Service Desk on its systems and shall provide BT with a unique identifier for the Incident at the time the Incident is reported to BT. |
| 8.3 | BT shall provide Reuters with updates concerning progress of Incident resolution in accordance with Schedule 5 Part 2. |
| 8.4 | BT shall notify the Reuters CRMC when a Service has been restored or that analysis has proved that fault conditions no longer apply. BT shall complete “reason for outage” details on the trouble ticket. |
| 8.5 | Where BT determines that no Incident has occurred in respect of a New Service, then BT shall register this on the Service Desk trouble ticketing system. In the event of persistent false reporting, BT shall notify Reuters and Reuters shall promptly implement measures which shall subsequently ensure a material reduction in such persistent false reporting within the next reporting period, or such other timescale as may be agreed. |
| 9 | PROACTIVE MANAGEMENT |
| 9.1 | BT shall use all reasonable endeavours to detect Incidents by proactively monitoring the status of each New Service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365/6 days a year. |
| 9.2 | On detection or notification of an Incident or circumstances which might give rise to an Incident in BT’s reasonable opinion, BT shall register the same with the Service Desk, which shall promptly notify Reuters of the same and manage any Incident in accordance with paragraph 8 above. |
| 10 | ALARM MONITORING |
| 10.1 | BT will collect network management alarms on a 24 hours a day/7 days a week/365(6) days a year basis. All alarms will be analysed and, if found to relate to an Incident, will be dealt with through the Incident management process set out in this Schedule and Schedule 5 Part 2. |
| 11 | ESCALATION |
| 11.1 | As soon as reasonably practicable after the Signing Date, BT and Reuters will develop and agree operational escalation procedures, based initially on those agreed |
4
| for Existing Services. Once these procedures are defined, they will be included within the Customer Operations Manual. | ||
| 11.2 | The Parties agree that the persons nominated in the escalation procedures will each have sufficient authority to provide an effective means of escalation. | |
| 11.3 | The escalation procedure described in paragraph 11.1 above will include but not be limited to: | |
| 11.3.1 | how each stage in the escalation process is invoked or triggered; | |
| 11.3.2 | the reporting channels through which escalation action is implemented; | |
| 11.3.3 | levels of responsibility; | |
| 11.3.4 | supporting resource; | |
| 11.3.5 | escalation tracking. | |
| 12 | CAPACITY MANAGEMENT | |
| 12.1 | BT will monitor the traffic levels of the Connections using its network monitoring systems in order to identify whether any of the following in BT’s reasonable opinion are required: | |
| 12.1.1 | increase or decrease in the capacity of a New Service; | |
| 12.1.2 | changes to a New Service to take account of the growth of, or reduction in, traffic levels and/or Facilities; | |
| 12.1.3 | changes to a New Service to take account of changes in Reuters applications or equipment; | |

| “Relevant | means: | ||
| Services” | |||
| (i) | the Services which are within the scope of the DR Plan, being the New Services, the Nash Services, the Satellite Services and any other Service that the Parties (a) agree (pursuant to the Change Control Procedure) shall be included or (b) as otherwise provided in Clause 11.1.3; | ||
| (ii) | maintenance of the integrity and availability of the Inventory (including by way of back-up or otherwise); and | ||
| (iii) | maintenance of the resilience and operational capability of BT’s network, systems and network operational centres (NOCs). | ||
| 2. | BT’s Obligations |
| 2.1 | As soon as is reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, but in any event within two (2) months of the Closing Date, BT shall (at its own cost) prepare and deliver to Reuters a draft DR Plan (the “Draft Plan”). |
| 2.2 | In producing the Draft Plan and the subsequent DR Plan, BT shall assess and take into account all operational and environmental risks that could apply to the Relevant |
2
| Services and outline the steps to prevent, reduce or otherwise mitigate such operational or environmental risks, in each case in accordance with Good Professional Practice. | ||
| 2.3 | Without limitation to the generality of paragraph 2.2, the Draft Plan and the subsequent DR Plan shall include (but shall not be limited to) provisions and arrangements relating to the following: | |
| (A) | disaster recovery and business continuity procedures and plans and contingency alternatives (including the priorities to be accorded and the resources to be allocated) designed to minimise the impact of an incident or disaster on the provision of the Relevant Services. Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, BT shall consider issues that could materially affect any BT Premises or BT’s ability to provide or procure the provision of the Relevant Services; | |
| (B) | arrangements to address any situation or circumstance resulting from material equipment or systems failure or the loss or destruction of data; and | |

| (E) | upon reasonable request by Reuters from time to time, demonstrate the continued feasibility of the DR Plan together with evidence that all necessary arrangements (with respect to alternative premises or otherwise) are in place; and | ||
| (F) | procure that its material Subcontractors have in place at all times adequate and appropriate disaster recovery and business continuity plans. | ||
| 2.6 | At all times during the planning, implementation and provision of the Relevant Services, BT shall ensure that: | ||
| (A) | there is no single physical point of failure in BT’s MPLS core network and its supporting NOCs and systems, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. The Parties agree that; | ||
| i) | the Core Network; and | ||
| ii) | the Delivery and Enterprise Networks | ||
| each have single network routing domains. In each case the network design is such that a failure of a network element does not cause failure of other network elements, and thus the Service impact of a failure is limited to those Services which make use of failed element. | |||
| (B) | it designs and implements the provision of the Relevant Services so as to avoid a concentration of BT Premises and BT Personnel in any given geographic region, with the effect that the same incident, disaster or business interruption should not impact upon the relevant back-up facilities, BT Personnel and Equipment and Communications Assets; | ||
| (C) | disaster recovery/back-up facilities shall not rely on the use of BT Personnel engaged at the relevant BT Premises impacted by any incident, disaster or business interruption; and | ||
| (D) | BT’s network and systems must be able to accommodate regular maintenance of all critical utilities and facilities without impacting upon the provision and resilience of the Relevant Services to Reuters and Reuters’ service delivery to its customers, unless as otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. | ||

| Reuters shall: | |||
| 3.1 | provide to BT all information that is reasonably requested of it in respect of its own disaster recovery and business continuity plans to the extent that they are relevant to enable BT to prepare the Draft Plan and update the DR Plan in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule; | ||
4
| 3.2 | maintain a current list of Reuters Personnel to liaise with BT’s DR Team and make it available to BT at all times; and |
| 3.3 | Reuters confirms that it shall work together with BT to effect the preparation and implementation of the DR Plan. |
| 4. | General |
| The Parties shall co-operate to identify any factor that affects, impacts or causes, or is reasonably likely to affect, impact or cause, the necessity for invoking the DR Plan. If any such factor is identified then the Parties shall agree any necessary changes to the DR Plan. | |

| 2 | Satellite Contracts |
| 2.1 | The “Satellite Contracts” are contracts in respect of satellite services listed in the Appendix A to this Schedule (including any extension, renegotiation or other amendment during the term of this Agreement) which comprise contracts: |
| 2.1.1 | between Reuters (or another member of the Reuters Group) and BT (or another member of the BT Group) (“BTBS Satellite Contracts”); and |
| 2.1.2 | between Reuters (or another member of the Reuters Group) and a third party service provider (other than a member of the BT Group) (“Third Party Satellite Contracts”), |
1 of 17
| and each Third Party Satellite Contract novated to BT pursuant to paragraph 4 of this Schedule shall be a “Novated Satellite Contract”. | |
| 3 | Satellite Services |
| 3.1 | With effect from the Closing Date: |
| 3.1.1 | BT shall provide the satellite services under the BTBS Satellite Contracts to the Reuters Group in each case in accordance with the terms of this Schedule and the terms of each BTBS Satellite Contract; and |
| 3.1.2 | BT shall provide or procure the provision of the satellite services under the Novated Satellite Contracts to the Reuters Group in each case in accordance with the terms of this Schedule and the terms of the applicable Novated Satellite Contract, with the effect that Reuters shall have the same rights from BT in respect of the receipt of services under such contracts as BT or other relevant member of the BT Group has from the relevant third party service provider. |
| 3.2 | On expiry of the relevant Third Party Satellite Contract in respect of the Globecast AtlanticBird 3 Satellite Service, BT shall provide and Reuters agrees to receive * on terms no less favourable to Reuters than the existing Third Party Satellite Contract provided in each case that the relevant migration is completed at BT’s sole cost. BT will provide dual running capacity and re-pointing of the receiving stations as required to effect the migration with no loss of service, including (for the avoidance of doubt) provision of additional satellite dishes if required. Reuters will use reasonable endeavours to contact the customers to: (i) allow BT reasonable access on reasonable notice to the relevant premises to facilitate the re-pointing, and (ii) advise customers to carry out BT’s reasonable instructions. |
| 3.3 | On expiry of the relevant Third Party Satellite Contract in respect of the Inmedia Intelsat 1002@359°E uplink Satellite Service, BT shall provide and Reuters agrees to receive *, on terms no less favourable to Reuters than the existing Third Party Satellite Contract provided in each case that the relevant migration is completed at BT’s sole cost and Reuters will agree a two minute period at Reuters’ sole discretion when the relevant migration can be completed. Reuters agrees to provide and install the hub equipment as is currently installed, and to the equivalent specification, at the * in consultation with BT. |
| 3.4 | BT shall, or procure that the relevant member of the BT Group shall, enforce its rights and undertake its obligations to the maximum extent it is able to do so under each Novated Satellite Contract to ensure that Reuters receives the full benefit of services under such agreements and that the standard and extent of the Satellite Services in respect of those agreements are no worse than as provided to the Reuters Group during the Standard Period. |
| 3.5 | Without prejudice to paragraph 3.1 of this Schedule, the Service Levels applicable to the Satellite Services shall be the service levels set out in the applicable Novated Satellite Contract or BTBS Satellite Contract (as applicable), which shall in any event be no worse |
2 of 17
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| than the service levels to which such services were provided to the Reuters Group by the relevant service provider during the Standard Period. | |
| 3.6 | BT shall pass through to Reuters the benefit of any service credits to which BT is entitled under the Novated Satellite Contracts. |
| 4 | Novation of Third Party Satellite Contracts |
| 4.1 | The Parties shall (working together and in good faith) use all reasonable endeavours to enter into (and to procure that all relevant third parties enter into) a novation agreement (substantially in the form set out at Schedule 14 (Form of Novation Agreement)) in respect of each of the Third Party Satellite Contracts with the intent that a member of the BT Group shall perform the Third Party Satellite Contract and be bound by it as if that member of the BT Group were a party to that contract in lieu of Reuters, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event prior to the Closing Date, such that BT shall become a party to each such contract in place of the relevant member of the Reuters Group. The Parties shall execute all such documents and provide all such other reasonable assistance to the other as is reasonably required to complete the novation of the Third Party Satellite Contracts. |
| 4.2 | Where any consent or agreement of any third party is required for the novation of any Third Party Satellite Contract to BT, the Parties shall use their respective reasonable endeavours to obtain the consent or agreement of such third party to procure the novation of such contract. |
| 4.3 | If, despite the Parties carrying out their obligations under paragraphs 4.1 and 4.2, the relevant third party does not consent to the transfer of the Third Party Satellite Contract or otherwise does not enter into the applicable novation agreement prior to the Closing Date, the Parties agree that such services provided under that Third Party Satellite Contract shall not fall within the scope of Satellite Services under this Agreement. |
| 5 | Renegotiation of Terms |
| 5.1 | The Parties agree that BT shall, subject to Reuters’ prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), be entitled to renegotiate the terms of a Novated Satellite Contract with the relevant service provider provided that the extent of the services and the service levels offered under any such amended agreement shall be no less or worse than those offered under the contract prior to such renegotiation. |
| 5.2 | BT shall, at Reuters’ request, provide to Reuters details of proposed amendments to the relevant Novated Satellite Contract, provided that it shall not be obliged to disclose details of any amendments into pricing provisions, and BT shall provide to Reuters copies of any agreed amendments (save in respect of amendments into pricing provisions). |
| 6 | Reuters’ Obligations |
| 6.1 | Reuters’ agrees that any obligations under a Novated Satellite Contract that it had to the relevant third party service provider prior to the novation of that contract shall, to the extent appropriate with regard to its receipt and use of Satellite Services under this Agreement, be borne by Reuters to BT, save in respect of its obligations to pay charges |
3 of 17
| under any such Satellite Contract (such obligations on Reuters to BT being set out in paragraph 8). | |
| 6.2 | For the avoidance of doubt and without limitation to paragraph 6.1: |
| 6.2.1 | to the extent that BT makes a payment to a third party provider under an indemnity under a Novated Satellite Contract, then Reuters shall pay to BT an amount equal to such payment, to the extent that Reuters would have been required to pay out under that indemnity had the contract not been novated; and |
| 6.2.2 | to the extent that BT is contractually required to take any steps under a Novated Satellite Contract in order for Reuters to receive or use satellite services under that contract, Reuters shall (on prior written notice from BT of the same) take such steps to the extent that it would have been required to do so under that contract had the contract not been novated. |
| 7 | Conduct |
| 7.1 | This Clause applies in the event of a claim against a member of the BT Group by any satellite provider under a Novated Satellite Contract to the extent such claim results from acts or omissions of Reuters which, were Reuters still a party to the relevant Novated Satellite Contract, Reuters would be in breach of that Novated Satellite Contract. In such circumstances, on prior written notice by BT, Reuters shall indemnify BT and any other member of the BT Group against all Losses they incur in connection with such claim provided that BT and the other members of the BT Group: |
| 7.1.1 | notify Reuters in writing of such claim and any related proceedings as soon as reasonably practicable after first becoming aware of the same; |
| 7.1.2 | make no admission relating to the claim or proceedings; |
| 7.1.3 | allow Reuters to conduct all related negotiations and proceedings; |
| 7.1.4 | give Reuters all reasonable assistance (at Reuters’ request and cost); and |
| 7.1.5 | subject to the foregoing, act to mitigate any such Losses. |
| 7.2 | BT shall provide copies of any notices received in respect of Novated Satellite Contracts promptly on receipt of the same and Reuters shall have a right to be represented in any discussions with such third party satellite provider. |
| 8 | Charges |
| 8.1 | The Parties agree that the charges payable by Reuters to BT in respect of the Satellite Services under this Agreement shall be the annual charges set out against each such Service in the Appendix A to this Schedule (or such other amount as the Parties agree (acting reasonably and in good faith) is the actual amount of the charges under the underlying Satellite Contract), * which shall apply in each case for the Initial Term and in respect of any extension of that term under paragraph 10.2 of this Schedule. |
4 of 17
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| 8.2 | BT shall pay to Reuters an amount equal to * of the charges set out against each Third Party Satellite Contract that is not a Novated Satellite Contract (i.e. the Globecast contract) unless and until expiry of that contract in accordance with its terms. |
| 8.3 | The Parties agree that any charge levied by a service provider in respect of the novation of the applicable Third Party Satellite Contract under this Schedule shall be borne by BT. |
| 9 | Adds Moves and Changes |
| 9.1 | Either Party may at any time during the term of this Agreement request a Change in respect of the Satellite Services. Any requested Change will only be made and implemented in accordance with the Change Control Procedure. |
| 9.2 | Reuters shall, acting in good faith, provide BT with the opportunity to tender for any future Satellite Services required by Reuters as part of the tendering process for the supply of those services. In the event that BT’s response to the tender is equal to or better than the best tender received for those services from a third party (in each case in respect of price and service quality), then (subject to the Parties agreeing, acting reasonably and in good faith, the other terms for the provision and receipt of those services) Reuters shall procure those services from BT at the price and service quality set out in BT’s tender. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph 9.2 shall oblige Reuters to procure satellite services from BT in the event it decides at any stage of the tender process, at its absolute discretion, that it no longer requires such services. |
| 9.3 | Without prejudice to the other terms of this Schedule, the Parties shall provide each other with such reasonable assistance as may be required in order to migrate Satellite Services under this Agreement and in order to minimise disruption to Reuters’ customers as a consequence of any such transfer. |
| 9.4 | Without prejudice to paragraphs 3.2 and 3.3, the Parties agree that BT shall bear all costs (including, for the avoidance of doubt, costs associated with dual-illumination and re- pointing) associated with any transfer of Satellite Services under this Schedule or as agreed between the Parties through the Change Control Procedure. |
| 10 | Duration |
| 10.1 | Initial Term |
| The Parties agree that the duration of the Satellite Services shall vary according to the term of the underlying Satellite Contract. The end date for the term of each underlying Satellite Contract is referred to in the attached Appendix A as the “End Date”. Reuters has agreed to continue to procure Satellite Services from BT under certain of those Satellite Contracts for a further five (5) years from the end of the term of the relevant underlying Satellite Contract as indicated in the attached Appendix A in the column headed “Further five (5) Years”. The “Initial Term” of each Satellite Service shall expire on the later of (i) the end of the term of the underlying Satellite Contract, and (ii) the end of any pre-agreed extension period. |
5 of 17
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| 10.2 | BT Exclusive Rights for Extensions after Initial Term |
| Reuters shall notify BT not less than six (6) months before the end of the Initial Term for a Satellite Service whether Reuters wishes to extend the provision of such (or substantially similar) Satellite Services beyond the Initial Term for a minimum period of five (5) years (unless otherwise agreed). If Reuters wishes to have such an extension of Satellite Services, it will procure such Services from BT and BT shall provide them, on terms no less favourable to Reuters than the terms it was obliged to provide them on for the Initial Term. Notwithstanding its requirement to give BT at least six (6) months’ prior notice of such proposed extension, Reuters agrees that it shall use its reasonable endeavours to provide such notice as soon as reasonably practicable. | |
| 10.3 | Obligation to Supply During the Term |
| Unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, BT shall provide or procure the provision of the corresponding Satellite Services until expiry of the relevant Initial Term for each Satellite Service and thereafter any further extension pursuant to paragraph 10.2 unless the relevant satellite capacity is no longer available at that location. | |
| 10.4 | Either Party shall be entitled to terminate a Satellite Service that is provided to BT under a Novated Satellite Contract on terms equivalent to the terms of such contract, such that: |
| 10.4.1 | to the extent a third party is entitled to terminate a Novated Satellite Contract, BT shall have the same right in respect of the applicable Satellite Service under this Agreement; and |
| 10.4.2 | to the extent it would have been entitled to terminate the applicable Novated Satellite Contract prior to its novation, Reuters shall have a right to cancel a Satellite Service under this Agreement (and shall give BT such additional reasonable notice of its decision to terminate to enable BT to terminate the contract on its terms), subject always to payment by Reuters of any amounts by way of early termination charges payable by BT which would have been payable by Reuters had it remained as a party under that Novated Satellite Contract. |
| 11 | Consequences of Expiry or Termination of this Agreement |
| 11.1 | The Parties agree that on expiry or termination of this Agreement or (if earlier) of the underlying Satellite Contract in respect of a Satellite Service, each Party shall provide to the other such reasonable exit assistance as may be required (including access to premises and Personnel of the other Party) for the purposes of effecting an orderly and efficient handover of the relevant Satellite Services. |
| 11.2 | Without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement, the following further provisions shall apply, on expiry or termination of this Agreement: |
| 11.2.1 | at Reuters’ written request to BT, the Parties shall (working together and in good faith) use all reasonable endeavours to enter into (and to procure that all relevant third parties enter into) a novation agreement in respect of subsisting Novated Satellite Contracts as soon as is reasonably practicable, such that a member of the Reuters Group shall |
6 of 17
| become a party to each such contract in place of the relevant member of the BT Group. The Parties shall execute all such documents and provide all such other reasonable assistance to the other as is reasonably required to complete the novation of the Third Party Satellite Contracts; and | ||
| 11.2.2 | BT shall or shall procure the continued provision of the Satellite Services under the subsisting BTBS Satellite Contracts for the remaining term of such contracts. | |
| 12 | International Occasional Use | |
| 12.1 | The International Occasional Use Services shall be ordered by Reuters on an “as required” basis through BT’s normal booking procedures. | |
| 12.2 | The Service Charges for the International Occasional Use Services shall, with effect from the Closing Date, be based on the ratecard set out in Appendix B. That ratecard shall be reviewed by BT with effect from each anniversary of the Closing Date. BT will use all reasonable endeavours to provide any such revised ratecard to Reuters not later than one month before the relevant anniversary of the Closing Date. | |
| 12.3 | From the Closing Date until the date of termination of this Agreement, BT shall apply a * to all Service Charges for International Occasional Use Services so that the Service Charges in the then current ratecard are reduced by * during that period. | |

Services Levels
Part
1
The Existing Services
As an overriding principle BT shall provide and measure each Existing Service to a service level no lower than as provided and measured during the Standard Period.
| 1 | Scope |
| 1.1 | The purpose of this Part 1 of Schedule 5 is to set out the Service Levels which apply to the Existing Services as described in Schedule 2 Part 1A (Existing Services). The Service Levels for the Non-Migrating Services are the Service Levels set out in this Schedule 5 Part 1 (and references in this Part 1 of Schedule 5 to the Existing Services shall be deemed to include the Non-Migrating Services). |
| 1.2 | The Existing Services will be managed and monitored by BT in accordance with Schedule 2 Part 1C (Service Management). |
| 1.3 | In the event of a failure by BT to achieve the Service Levels for the Existing Services, the Service Credits set out in this Part shall apply in respect of such a failure. |
| 2 | Definitions |
| For the purposes of this Schedule 5 Part 1, the following capitalised terms shall have the following meanings: | |
| “Incident Threshold” has the meaning given to it in paragraph 4.2; | |
| “Qualifying Incident” has the meaning given to it in paragraph 5. | |
| 3 | Incident Classification |
| 3.1 | Incidents in respect of the Existing Services will be assigned a severity level by Reuters CRMC as follows: |
| Incident | Nature of Incident | |
| severity | ||
| Severity 1 | * | |
| Severity 2 | * | |
| 3.2 | Reuters will assign a priority to the Incident based on customer impact and severity level of the Incident. |
| 3.3 | Incidents attributed to the Existing Services will be promptly investigated by BT and report its findings to the next meeting of the Global Service Forum. |
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| 3.4 | BT will refer issues back to the Global Service Forum if it is believed that they have been incorrectly assigned a severity level. The Global Service Forum will review (acting reasonably and in good faith) any request by BT to revise the severity level classification originally assigned by Reuters. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph 3.4 shall require the Global Service Forum to assign a different severity level to an Incident. |
| 4 | Incident Baseline |
| 4.1 | The Parties acknowledge that the number and frequency of the Severity 1 and Severity 2 Incidents reported by the Radianz Group in respect of services provided to the Reuters Group in the Standard Period shall represent the means by which BT’s performance to the Service Levels for the ongoing delivery of the Existing Services shall be measured. |
| 4.2 | The relevant “Incident Threshold” in respect of an Incident is as set out below: |
| Incident severity | Incident Threshold | |
| Severity 1 | * | |
| Severity 2 | * | |
| 5 | Service Levels | |
| 5.1 | Each of the Existing Services shall be provided to at least the same level of service as each such Existing Service was provided by the Radianz Group to the Reuters Group during the Standard Period. | |
| 5.2 | Without prejudice to paragraph 5.1, BT shall be deemed to have failed to meet the Service Levels in respect of an Existing Service if in any calendar month an Incident occurs that exceeds the relevant Incident Threshold in respect of the severity level assigned to that Incident (a “Qualifying Incident”). | |
| 6 | Service Credits | |
| * Since severity 1 and severity 2 service failures refer to Incidents rather than Connections, | ||
| * | ||
| 6.3 | For each Connection affected by a Qualifying Incident, the Service Credits that shall apply shall be determined as follows: | |
| 6.3.1 | each such Connection shall be deemed to have the Service Category equivalent to the Service Category it would be migrated to under the Migration Plan; and | |
| 6.3.2 | the Service Credits section of the table in paragraph 3.1 of Schedule 5 Part 2 (Service Levels and Service Credits: New Services) shall apply as though set out in this paragraph, except that: | |
| (a) | references to “failure” shall be deemed to be “Qualifying Incident”; |

Schedule 5
Service Levels & Service Credits
Part 2
New Services
| 1. | Introduction | ||||
| The purpose of this Schedule is to describe the Service Levels which apply to all of the New Services as described in Schedule 2 Part 1B (New Services). The Service Levels for the Non-Migrating Services are the relevant Service Levels set out in Schedule 5 Part 1 (Existing Services) (and references in this Part 2 of Schedule 5 to New Services shall be deemed to exclude the Non-Migrating Services). | |||||
| The Service Levels applicable to the FAT services shall be those that apply under Schedule 5 Part 1 (Service Levels and Service Credits: Existing Services). | |||||
| The New Services will be managed and monitored by BT in accordance with Schedule 2 Part 1C (Service Management). | |||||
| 1.1. | Service Levels | ||||
| As an overriding principle, BT shall provide each New Service to a service level no lower than for the corresponding Existing Service. The Parties agree that the provisions of this Schedule 5 Part 2 are subject to this overriding principle. | |||||
| BT shall provide the New Services to the Service Levels set out in this Schedule. The following types of Service Levels shall apply in respect of the New Services: | |||||
| Technical Service Levels: | |||||
| a) | Availability | ||||
| b) | Round Trip Delay | ||||
| c) | Packet Loss | ||||
| Service Operation Levels: | |||||
| a) | Alarm Monitoring and Feed to Reuters | ||||
| b) | Fault notification | ||||
| c) | Repair progress | ||||
| d) | Orders, moves & changes | ||||
| 1.2. | Service Credits | ||||
| In the event of a failure by BT to achieve the Service Levels in paragraph 3.1 of this Schedule for the New Services, the Service Credits set out in this Schedule shall apply in respect of such a failure. | |||||
| Prior to the Migration Date, Service Credits will be calculated in accordance with the table set out in paragraph 3.1 of this Schedule. | |||||
| 2. | Definitions | ||||
| “Availability” | means the time during which New Services operate correctly without failure over the calendar month, whichin the case of New Services with re-convergenceparameters includes compliance with those parameters.For the avoidance of doubt, Packet Loss and Round Trip Delay do not fall within the definition of Availability; | ||||
| “Incident” | means an event which causes an interruption to or reduction in the quality or availability below the agreed Service Levels of the relevant Service; | |||||||
| “Maintenance Window” | means: | |||||||
| (i) | * local time (or the local equivalent of a weekend) in respect of customer Facilities only; and | |||||||
| (ii) | * in all other cases . | |||||||
| “Network
Availability Service Level” |
means Availability, RTD and Packet Loss Service Levels set out in paragraph 3.1; | |||||||
| “Re-convergence Time” | means the total length of time taken by BT to detect an Availability failure on or relating to a Connection and re- route traffic from that Connection to a Connection that is available; and | |||||||
| “Round
Trip Delay” (“RTD”) |
means the period of time between when the last byte of a message is sent from the originating equipment to the time when the last byte has been received back from the destination equipment, measured as an average over a calendar month in accordance with paragraph 3.3.7. | |||||||
| 3. | Technical Service Levels and Service Credits | |||||||
| 3.1. | Network availability | |||||||
| BT will achieve, in connection with each New Service: | ||||||||
| (i) | no less than the percentage specified for Availability; | |||||||
| (ii) | the time specified for RTDs or better for the period of Availability; | |||||||
| (iii) | no greater than the percentage specified for Packet Loss for each calendar month; and | |||||||
| (iv) | the time specified for Re-convergence Time or better than that time, | |||||||
| in each case for the applicable Service Category , as set out in the table below. | ||||||||
| References in the table below to 1st , 2nd and 3rd failures to meet a Network Availability Service Level mean the first, second and third failures on the same Connection to the same Facility * (in respect of Platinum, Gold and Silver Service Categories), or a * period (in respect of Bronze Service Categories). | ||||||||
| Where more than one failure occurs simultaneously on a Connection to a Facility, e.g. a circuit failure also triggering Packet Loss and RTD issues, this shall be treated as a single failure for the purpose of calculation of the Service Credits. | ||||||||

| 3.2. | Maintenance | ||
| (i) | BT agrees that all maintenance (including, for the avoidance of doubt, within a Maintenance Window) in respect of the New Services shall be undertaken with Reuters’ prior written agreement (not to be unreasonably withheld). BT will provide 72 hours’ prior written notice of proposed maintenance and shall only carry out maintenance within a Maintenance Window. | ||
| (ii) | In the event of an emergency in respect of which emergency maintenance to rectify an outage is required, such emergency maintenance may be carried out by or on behalf of BT outside a Maintenance Window subject to Reuters’ express prior consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). | ||
| (iii) | BT acknowledges that it may undertake no more than three (3) incidents of maintenance work per Facility, per year without prior written consent from Reuters, and maintenance shall only be conducted by BT or BT Personnel. | ||
| (iv) | BT agrees that all maintenance conducted in respect of a Service that is subject to a Platinum or Gold Service Category may be conducted on only one Connection of such Service at any one time. | ||
| 3.3. | Measurement of Service Levels | ||
| 3.3.1 | BT’s performance of the New Services to the Service Levels shall be measured across the calendar month, per Service, per Facility. | ||
| 3.3.2 | The Network Availability Service Levels set out in paragraph 3.1 shall be measured on a 24 hours/7 days a week/365 days a year basis. | ||
| 3.3.3 | The measurement of BT’s performance to the Network Availability Service Levels shall exclude: | ||
| (a) | periods of maintenance carried out in accordance with paragraph 3.2 of this Schedule; and | ||
| (b) | unavailability to the extent resulting from an act or omission by Reuters or a customer of Reuters, except where acting on instructions of BT or BT Personnel. | ||
| 3.3.4 | Where BT is able to contract with more than one quality local carrier (which for the avoidance of doubt delivers sufficiently robust service levels) in the relevant location, at Reuters’ written request BT shall ensure that Services delivered to Gold Category and Silver Category Service Levels are delivered over two separate local carriers. | ||
| 3.3.5 | At Reuters’ prior written request, and where BT has not already contracted with a specific local carrier, BT shall contract with such Reuters’ requested carrier subject to payment of reasonable incremental charges. BT’s obligation to meet the relevant Service Levels shall be limited to the service levels that the local carrier has contractually committed to achieve. BT shall promptly notify Reuters in writing of any such impact (or anticipated impact) on the Service Levels. | ||
| 3.3.6 | The Parties acknowledge that Availability is in part dependent on the availability of the relevant local tail circuits, and that such availability varies from country to country. Notwithstanding the Service Levels set out in paragraph 3.1 and subject always to the overriding principle in paragraph 1.1, the maximum Availability Service Level that BT shall be required to achieve in | ||
| a country shall (subject to paragraph 3.3.7) be that set out in the table in Appendix A in respect of that country. | |||
| 3.3.7 | The Parties acknowledge that as at the Signing Date there are service levels and hours of cover referred to in the table in Appendix A that are less than the service levels and hours of cover achieved today. On and from the Signing Date, BT will work with Reuters in good faith to improve the accuracy of the table to better reflect the current service levels and hours of cover received by Reuters as at the Signing Date. | ||
| 3.3.8 | The Parties shall work together in good faith to identify improvements to the Service Levels in Appendix A in each country in each case falling within the same commercial and performance parameters. BT shall implement any such identified improvements within a reasonable time period. | ||
| 3.3.9 | Similarly, the maximum time to repair Service Level under paragraph 4.4 of this Schedule shall be subject to the table in Appendix A, subject always to the overriding principle in paragraph 1.1. | ||
| 3.3.10 | Measurement of Availability | ||
| Availability shall be measured by BT using the most up to date and appropriate technology (which will include the use of traps from routers where applicable and may also include polling). | |||
| 3.3.11 | Measurement of Round Trip Delay | ||
| RTDs shall be measured by BT by sending two test packets of 100 bytes, * between designated BT MPLS Customer Edge (CE) routers. The measurement will be the time between a test packet being sent and returning to its origin. The Round Trip Delay measurement will be calculated as an average across all test packets sent and received over a calendar month. | |||
| 3.3.12 | Measurement of Packet Loss | ||
| Packet Loss is measured by sending, two test packets * between designated BT Customer Edge (CE) routers. Packet delivery statistics will be calculated as an average of all test packets sent and received over a calendar month. | |||
| * | |||
| To the extent it is able to do so, Reuters will measure Packet Loss and it shall report the results of such measurement(s) to BT: | |||
| (i) | from the demarcation point of the BT network at a Main Technical Centre to the demarcation point of the BT network at a Facility, and BT shall be solely responsible for such validated Packet Loss; | ||
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| (ii) | from within a Main Technical Centre to within a Facility, and BT and Reuters will meet with a view (in good faith using reasonable endeavours) to agreeing the proportion of such Packet Loss attributable to the Services. | ||
| Reuters will provide BT with the reports used to identify the Packet Loss. | |||
| 4. | Service Contract Measures | ||
| 4.1. | Incident classification | ||
| In the event of a Service outage, failure or other degradation, BT shall assign a severity level in accordance with the table below (for the avoidance of doubt, BT shall only pay Service Credits on actual Incidents - see paragraph 3.1 above): | |||
| Incident severity | Nature of Incident | |
| Severity 1 | * | |
| Severity 2 | * | |
| Severity 3 | * | |
| For the avoidance of doubt, Severity Levels in the above table have no relationship to the Severity Levels applicable to the Existing Services. | |||
| 4.2. | Alarm Monitoring and Feed to Reuters | ||
| BT will provide: | |||
| (v) | a real time feed of events describing service performance, which will be forwarded to the Reuters’ management system by BT (using the SNMP forwarding protocol) which will include the following events: | ||
| (i) | RTD threshold exceeded; | ||
| (ii) | Packet Loss threshold exceeded; | ||
| (iii) | circuit failure; | ||
| (iv) | an identifier of the affected Facility in a manner which is meaningful to Reuters. | ||
| * | Access to online reports will be made available to Reuters by BT. These online reports will include access to historical utilisation, Packet Loss and RTD performance of the New Services. The Parties will, acting reasonably, define and agree core hours for at least each of the main territories, America, Europe and Asia. During these core hours all Gold, Silver and RDF datafeed sites will * | ||
| (vii) | The Parties agree that the exact definition of events to be forwarded and the details within the protocol will be defined by BT and Reuters to ensure that the | ||
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| appropriate information is available within six months following the Signing Date. | |||
| (viii) | In cases such as circuit failure, the alarms will not be forwarded immediately, but will be held in the processing system for a period of time (such period of time not to exceed ten seconds) to allow receipt of additional alarm information and correlation to provide a more meaningful feed of information to Reuters. | ||
| (ix) | The table below gives the frequency in minutes of the information update to be provided through the online reports: | ||
| Service Category | |||||||||
| Platinum | Gold Fast | Gold | Gold No | Silver | Silver | Silver No | Bronze | Bronze | |
| Converge | Standard | Converge | Fast | Standard | Converge | + | |||
| Converge | |||||||||
| Period through
which report will be updated for Connections between Main Technical Centres and Facilities |
* | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * |
| Period through
which report will be updated for Connections between Main Technical Centres |
* | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * |
| In the above table the reports available online will not contain information for the whole period measured at peak resolution. Rather, information for the last 3 months will be available at peak resolution whilst aged information will be aggregated (or “rolled up”) to provide measures over longer poll periods. | |||
| 4.3. | Fault notification | ||
| In the event that an Incident affecting a Service occurs, in addition to the real time alarm feed set out in paragraph 4.2 and the on-line reports as set out in paragraph 4.2.5, BT will notify the Reuters help desk within the times (in minutes) set out in the table below: | |||
| Service Category | |||||||||
| Platinum | Gold Fast | Gold | Gold No | Silver | Silver | Silver No | Bronze + | Bronze | |
| Converge | Standard | Converge | Fast | Standard | Converge | ||||

| Severity 2 | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * |
| Severity 3 | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * | * |
| Notification to Reuters by BT of an Incident will be measured from the time that the trouble ticket is opened at the BT Service Desk to the time that BT notifies Reuters that such Incident has been detected. | |
* text has been redacted for confidentiality
| 4.4. | Repair progress |
| BT will communicate to the Reuters help desk the progress of an Incident for so long as it is outstanding, as a minimum in accordance with the table below: | |
| Service Category | |||||||||
