In the event that Customer allows Software or Equipment support services to lapse or if Customer did not originally purchase Software or Equipment support services and wishes to reinstate or procure such services, Customer must pay (i) the support services fees at list price for such lapsed or unprocured time period for when the products were not on support; and (ii) the annual support services at the then current list price for the applicable product(s), plus twenty per cent (20%) of the support services fees.

Service Coverage Period

Virtual Roster is currently only offered with Gold Support and relevant time zone for US, Australia and Macau in China.

Priority Based Support

UKG provides support on a "priority" basis. As such, customers with the most critical request(s) will be serviced first. UKG Global Support has set up the following guidelines to assess the priority of each service request:

High Priority: A critical customer issue with no available workaround where the system or a module may be down, experiencing major system degradation, data corruption or other related factors resulting in the customer not being able to process their payroll such as:

• Unable to sign-off Time Cards
• Totals are not accurate
• Unable to collect punches from terminals
• Unable to access a critical application function such as scheduling
• Cloud outage

No workaround is available.

Medium Priority: A serious customer issue which impacts ability to utilize the product effectively such as:

• Intermittent or inconsistent functionality results or data accuracy - accrual balances not matching pay codes but balances are accurate
• Data display inaccuracies or inconsistencies across multiple tasks
• System performance is inconsistent or fluctuates

A workaround is available.

Low Priority: Non-critical problem generally Use and Usability issues and or "how to" questions such as:

• How do I set up a holiday pay rule?
• How do I run a report?
• How often should database maintenance be executed?

A workaround is available on the UKG Kronos Community.

Response Time

Response time shall mean from the time the case priority is set by UKG's Support Center until a UKG support representative contacts the Customer to begin service. UKG utilizes a priority based support focus. Customers with the most critical request will be serviced in accordance with the following guidelines:

All response times are business hours.

The above are only guidelines and may be modified, for a particular incident, based on joint agreement between the customer and UKG.

e.g., If a Gold support customer's case is logged at 4:55 p.m., local time, with a "Medium Priority" designation, UKG would respond before 8:55 a.m., local time, the next business day (Monday - Friday for Gold Support customers).

Critical Outages

UKG Global Support will provide continuous effort on all high priority events through either bug identification, the development of a workaround or problem resolution. If this effort goes beyond normal hours, the case may be passed to the after hours team or to the mission critical support engineer on duty. On-going continuous effort may also be dependent on the customer's ability to provide a resource to work with the UKG Global Support engineer during this period. Support outside the scope of the services agreement is billable.

Virtual Roster is currently offered with resolution effort support during the business local times for US, Australia and Macau in China.

Technical Escalation

Our case resolution process is a Team based approach structured around specific products of the Application suite and staffed by Support Engineers covering the full spectrum of skill sets and technical expertise. The Teams are empowered to dynamically apply the appropriate resources to a case based on severity and complexity to ensure the fastest resolution time possible.

The Teams are also integrated with the Development Engineering staff and engage their assistance and technical guidance when necessary and/or directly escalate depending on case severity and time to resolve considerations.

For situations that contain multiple cases an Account Manager may be assigned to act as a single point of contact and communication regarding case resolution status, action plan development, resource integration and implementation co-ordination. The Account Manager remains engaged until the situation has been successfully remediated.

Management Escalation

Customers may, at any time, ask to speak to a UKG manager if they experience dissatisfaction with the level of service received with respect to a specific case or service in general. To contact a UKG Global Support manager, please telephone your UKG Support Services center and ask to speak to a manager. Phone numbers are listed on the UKG Kronos Community at https://community.kronos.com/s/article/ka361000000ACDuAAO/KB13193.

UKG utilizes a priority based support focus. Customers with the most critical request will be serviced in accordance with the following guidelines:

All response times are business hours.

The above are only guidelines and may be modified, for a particular incident, based on joint agreement between the Customer and UKG.

e.g., If a Gold support customer's case is logged at 4:55 p.m., local time, with a "Medium Priority" designation, UKG would respond before 8:55 a.m., local time, the next business day (Monday - Friday for Gold Support customers).

Critical Outages

UKG Global Support will provide continuous effort on all high priority events through either bug identification, the development of a workaround or problem resolution. If this effort goes beyond normal hours, the case may be passed to the after-hours team or to the mission critical support engineer on duty. On-going continuous effort may also be dependent on the customer's ability to provide a resource to work with the UKG Global Support engineer during this period. Support outside the scope of the services agreement is billable.

Technical Escalation

Our case resolution process is a Team based approach structured around specific products of the Application suite and staffed by Support Engineers covering the full spectrum of skill sets and technical expertise. The Teams are empowered to dynamically apply the appropriate resources to a case based on severity and complexity to ensure the fastest resolution time possible.

The Teams are also integrated with the Development Engineering and Cloud Operations staff and engage their assistance and technical guidance when necessary and/or directly escalate depending on case severity and time to resolve considerations.

For situations that contain multiple cases an Account Manager may be assigned to act as a single point of contact and communication regarding case resolution status, action plan development, resource integration and implementation co-ordination. The Account Manager remains engaged until the situation has been successfully remediated.

Management Escalation

Customers may, at any time, ask to speak to a UKG manager if they experience dissatisfaction with the level of service received with respect to a specific case or service in general. To contact a UKG Global Support manager, please telephone your UKG Support Services center and ask to speak to a manager. Phone numbers are listed on the UKG Kronos Community at https://community.kronos.com/s/article/ka361000000ACDuAAO/KB13193.
