Last updated:
Version of February 25th, 2026
1. Definitions
Certain capitalized terms, not otherwise defined in this Online Hosting Service Level Agreement (hereinafter "SLA"), will have the meanings set forth in the Terms and Conditions for Online Cloud Services signed by the Parties (hereinafter the "Terms").
"Emergency Maintenance" means maintenance performed by Kyriba that occurs outside of the Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period and Non-Regularly Scheduled Maintenance.
"Downtime" means the total amount of time during a calendar month, measured in minutes, during which access to the features and functions of the SaaS Service is not available and verified by Kyriba. Downtime does not include interruption of the SaaS Services during any Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period, Customer-caused outages or disruptions, outages caused by Customer's or Users' telecommunications and/or Internet services, software or hardware not provided and/or controlled by Kyriba (including third party software, networks or sites that are accessed or linked through the SaaS Services), or outages caused by disruptions attributable in whole or in part to Force Majeure Events.
"Non-Regularly Scheduled Maintenance" means maintenance performed by Kyriba outside of the Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period for which Kyriba has provided Customer with at least two calendar days prior written notification (which may be through support portal or a message on the console). The notification period hereunder is subject to change from time to time at Kyriba's sole discretion.
"Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period" means the time period that Kyriba reserves for scheduled maintenance as set forth herein, which may be subject to change from time to time at Kyriba's sole discretion.
"System Availability" means, with respect to a particular calendar month, the percentage derived by dividing (x) the total possible minutes of system availability during such month minus the total minutes of Downtime during such month, divided by (y) the total possible minutes of system availability of the SaaS Services during such month.
"Unavailability" means that the access to features and functions of the SaaS Services are unavailable as determined by Kyriba's monitoring system designed to determine the status of the platform through a periodic poll status of each sub-system and component.
2. Scheduled/Unscheduled Downtime
Kyriba will provide release management and change control services to ensure that servers, network devices, storage, operating system software, utility software, and applications are updated, audited, and logged and that new releases, patch releases, and other new versions are implemented as deemed necessary by Kyriba to maintain the SaaS Services. Customer understands and acknowledges that the SaaS Services serve many clients, and Kyriba is permitted to make changes to the hosting environment, network, telecommunications, data storage, and any/all other information technology infrastructure or environment that are involved, without seeking or obtaining any consent from the customer. The Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period shall be, on an as-needed basis, (1) between 6:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m. on workdays in the time zone of the region the platform is located in and (2) on weekends. Kyriba will exercise commercially reasonable efforts to perform scheduled system maintenance during the Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period, including maintenance of the hosting equipment, facility, software, or other aspects of the SaaS Services. Kyriba may interrupt the SaaS Services outside of the Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period for Non-Regularly Scheduled Maintenance or Emergency Maintenance. Kyriba will always endeavor to keep any service interruptions to a minimum.
Kyriba reserves the right to change the aggregated times set forth in the scheduled maintenance table below, provided that Kyriba endeavors to provide 5 business days' prior notice to Customer by a message on the console and/or an email that contains links to the release notes. The notification period hereunder is subject to change from time to time at Kyriba's sole discretion.
Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Table
Frequency of Regularly Scheduled Maintenance | Purpose of Regularly Scheduled Maintenance | Maximum Duration of Regularly Scheduled Maintenance |
Weekdays and Weekends, as needed | Regular maintenance | 4 hours |
Once per calendar month | Major maintenance/upgrades | 8 hours during weekends |
3. System Performance
(a) System Availability. Kyriba will undertake commercially reasonable measures to ensure that System Availability equals or exceeds 99.9% during each calendar month (the "Service Standard"). This Kyriba engagement concerns Production Platforms only.
(b) Exclusion. Services designated in writing as training, beta, limited release, developer preview, development or test bed environments, or by descriptions of similar meaning are excluded from this SLA. Kyriba shall have no obligations under this SLA during any period in which Customer is in material breach of the Terms, including any period in which Customer has failed to meet its payment obligations thereunder. In addition, Kyriba is not responsible for any Downtime resulting from the following, which would not be included in the calculation of Downtime or System Availability:
Any Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Period
Customer-caused outages or disruptions
Outages caused by Customer's or Users' telecommunications and Internet services, software or hardware not provided and controlled by Kyriba (including third party software, networks or sites that are accessed or linked through the SaaS Services)
Other outages due to inability of Customer to access the internet and/or SaaS Services, where inability to access the internet or website is not the result of a failure by Kyriba or its website
Lack of availability or untimely response of Customer's personnel to incidents that require Customer's participation for problem source identification and/or problem resolution
Lack of or poor performance of Customer's systems; or
Outages caused by disruptions attributable in whole or in part to Force Majeure Events
4. Measurement and Reports
(a) System Monitoring and Measurement. Kyriba will provide monitoring of System Availability on an ongoing basis. Kyriba may use its reasonable discretion in selecting the tools and procedures used in measuring and monitoring Kyriba's performance, provided that such tools and procedures are sufficient to enable Kyriba to calculate and monitor accurate System Availability. All measurements of System Availability will be calculated on a monthly basis for each calendar month during the Term. Availability of access to the features and functions of the SaaS Services is determined through the use of a dedicated tool monitoring the status of the platform, which provides a periodic status of each of the sub-systems or components. Based on this information a global platform status is calculated.
(b) System Performance Reports. At Customer's written request, Kyriba shall provide reports to Customer setting forth a calculation of System Availability for the relevant preceding period. If Customer disagrees with any measurement or other information set forth in any such report, it must so inform Kyriba in writing within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof, provided that the accuracy of any such report shall be deemed conclusive unless such written notice is provided by Customer within such 10-day period. Any such notice must indicate specific measurements in dispute and must include a detailed description of the nature of the dispute. Kyriba and Customer shall in good faith work together to settle any such disputes regarding System Availability and/or related measurements in a timely manner.
5. Customer Requirements
(a) Minimum System. The Service Standard set forth in this SLA assumes that Customer and/or Users, as applicable, use support versions of browsers as specified in the Kyriba Enterprise Technology Guide.
(b) Additional Customer Obligations. Customer is responsible for maintenance and management of its computer network(s), servers, software, and any equipment or services related to maintenance and management of the foregoing. Customer is responsible for correctly configuring its systems in accordance with any reasonable instructions provided by Kyriba, as may be reasonably necessary for the provision of access to the features and functions of the SaaS Services.
(c) Reporting of Downtime. Downtime will begin when Kyriba first becomes aware of such Downtime from its monitoring system.
(d) Non-Performance by Customer. The obligations of Kyriba set forth in this SLA will be suspended to the extent any failures to meet such obligations result in whole or in part from Customer's or its Users' failure(s) to meet the foregoing obligations.
6. Remedies
(a) Credits Against Fees. In the event System Availability is less than 99.9% in any particular calendar month, Customer will be entitled to credits against its subsequent payment obligations (as set forth in Order Schedule) equal to a percent of the Fees paid by Customer during such calendar month for the SaaS Services, according to the credit table below. Any credits hereunder shall be applied to the next invoice issued by Kyriba; provided that if such credit has not been issued or used prior to the termination date or expiration of the Terms, then Kyriba shall make a payment to Customer in an amount equal to the then remaining service balance.
(b) Customer Must Request Service Credit. In order to receive any of the credits described above, Customer must notify Kyriba within thirty days from the time Customer becomes eligible to receive a credit. Failure to comply with this requirement will forfeit Customer's right to receive a credit.
Credit Table
System Availability | Credit Amount |
98.0 – 99.9% | 5% of Fees for the SaaS Services in month (or if the fee is an annual fee then 5% of 1/12 of the annual fee) |
97.0 – 97.99% | 10% of Fees for the SaaS Services in month (or if the fee is an annual fee then 10% of 1/12 of the annual fee) |
96.0 – 96.99% | 15% of Fees for the SaaS Services in month (or if the fee is an annual fee then 15% of 1/12 of the annual fee) |
< 96.00% | 20% of Fees for the SaaS Services in month (or if the fee is an annual fee then 20% of 1/12 of the annual fee) |
In no case shall the total credit amount for any month exceed 20% of Fees for the SaaS Services for that month.
(c) Exclusive Service Credits. Customer's rights under Section 6(a) are Customer's sole and exclusive remedy and Kyriba's sole and exclusive liability in respect of any Downtime or any failure by Kyriba to meet the Service Standard described herein.
7. Data Backup and Retention
(a) Backup Retention and Recovery of Customer Data. Kyriba provides an Active/Replication mode for backup and recovery of Customer Data, in which data is replicated. A customer is hosted on a primary site or region at any given time. In this configuration, data from data center A is replicated to data center B. As a part of the SaaS Services, Kyriba is responsible for maintaining a backup of Customer Data in one of its two data centers, for an orderly and timely recovery of such data in the event that the SaaS Services may be interrupted.
Production Scheduled Backup Table
Type of Back-Up | Retention Period | Description |
Full Back-Up | 10 years | Full data backup |

In case of system failure, data corruption and/or data loss, or in the event of destruction of the secure data center hosting the Kyriba systems, Kyriba shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the minimum necessary recovery services are carried out with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 4 hours and a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 2 hours.

Support Priority Response Table 9(b)

|

|
Priority 3 | Priority 3 means informational inquiries with service enhancement initiatives that are low priority and not time sensitive, including Users' requests for information and instructions for normal operations, cosmetic or minor flaws in the SaaS Services that have little to no impact on normal business operations, suggestions from Customer for enhancements, or requests from Customer for new services or modifications to the existing SaaS Services. |

Priority 4 is used when the request is informational and does not require investigation or product work. |

Notes: (1) "Initial response" means: the case is acknowledged, initial triage has started, the case is assigned to a support consultant, and the customer receives confirmation. (2) Communication may be provided via the case or email; an alternate status page may be used when applicable. P1 qualification is confirmed by Kyriba based on impact and service condition; priority may be adjusted as information evolves. Resolution timelines may be impacted by third-party dependencies (e.g., bank networks, telecom, cloud provider) and customer-side actions; Kyriba will maintain transparency and provide mitigations. Kyriba might assign a different priority level to each support request based on the priority definitions described in this document, which is determined by both the Customer's request and Kyriba's own assessment and review.
