1.1	Provision of Service. SMART BROADBAND INC. (hereinafter referred to as “SBI”) shall cause the installation and connection of Subscriber’s personal computer and/or network (hereinafter referred to as the “Subscriber Equipment”) to SBI’s network as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of payment of the prescribed fees and deposit for the Service. SBI reserves the right to disconnect the Service at any time should any Subscriber Equipment and paraphernalia be found to cause harmful interference to SBI’s network or to cause degradation in the quality of Service. Subscriber agrees to hold SBI free and harmless from any liability arising from such disconnection.

1.2	Equipment and Peripherals. SBI shall provide the Subscriber with the Customer Premises Equipment (“CPE”) or Modem and Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) Card and other peripherals necessary for Service access (hereinafter referred to as the “CPE and/or Peripherals”) as set forth in the delivery receipt issued to the Subscriber. 

Hardware. All CPE and/or Peripherals connected to or used in conjunction with the Service shall be of a type approved by SBI. SBI does not, by this Agreement, cover any representation or warranty for any telecommunications and related equipment.

Loss or Damage of Hardware. 
A) The security of the SIM Card and the confidentiality of his Personal Identification Number (PIN) as well as the proper care and maintenance of the CPE and/or Peripherals shall be the Subscriber’s sole responsibility. 
B) In case of loss of CPE and/or Peripherals, the Subscriber shall immediately inform SBI of such fact, first by telephone through SBI’s Customer Care Hotline or any SMART Wireless Center, to be followed by the submission of an affidavit of loss or a police report to document such loss within 24 hours from the discovery of the loss. SBI, upon notice of such loss, shall immediately disconnect the Service. All charges and fees accruing prior to the disconnection shall remain for the account of the Subscriber.

1.3	Site Survey. SBI reserves the right, upon due notice, to conduct site surveys, tests and/or inspections inside Subscriber’s premises, as necessary to determine the requirements for CPE and/or Peripherals installation and Service maintenance. Subscriber understands that should there be no signal from the SBI antenna to the Subscriber’s premises where the Service is intended to be provided, Subscriber will not be able to avail of the Service. Subscriber agrees to hold SBI free and harmless from any liability arising from the said non-availability of the Service. 
 
1.4	Non-transferability of Rights and Location. The rights and privileges extended to Subscriber in relation to the subscription and the CPE and/or Peripherals are purely personal to the Subscriber and shall not be transferred to any individual or entity or to any other location, without obtaining the prior written consent, approval and clearance from SBI. Any such transfer of rights and/or location without the prior written consent of SBI shall be void regardless of receipt by SBI of Monthly Service Fee and other charges from the supposed transferee.
 
1.5	Limitation of Liability. SBI shall not be responsible for delays or for failure or omission of its Service due to any cause beyond its control not due to its willful and intentional fault or negligence and which cannot be overcome by the exercise of due diligence including but not limited to labor disturbance, human or equipment breakdown, acts of God, or force majeure, whether or not the cause be of the same class or kind as those herein. Subscriber agrees that in such case, the operation of this Agreement and delivery and rendering of Service, so far as necessary, may be suspended or terminated as the case may be, even without notice, without liability for loss and damage, it being understood that the cause of such interruption shall be remedied, if possible, with all necessary dispatch at the earliest practicable time.

1.6	Non-assumption of Responsibility. Subscriber holds SBI free from any responsibility for any loss or damage resulting from the failure of Service caused by a malfunction of the SBI network or CPE and/or Peripherals for any reason whatsoever. Notwithstanding  any other provision of this Agreement, SBI will not for any reason be liable for any indirect, incidental, out-of-pocket expenses, consequential, punitive, special or other similar damages, including but not limited to damages resulting from loss of actual or anticipated revenues or profits, or loss of business, data or good will.

1.7	Use of the Service. The Subscriber’s right to use the Service is personal to the Subscriber.  The Subscriber shall not re-sell or make any commercial use of the Service, without the prior express written consent of SBI. The Service shall not be utilized in bypassing or in activity/ies that tend to bypass the network or be used in prohibited services like callback, dialback, unauthorized audiotext, international and national simple resale (ISR/NSR) and other similar services (the “Unauthorized Activities”). Subscriber further agrees not to facilitate, accommodate, forward or initiate origination and/or termination of SMS, MMS, GPRS, WAP or other voice, video or data-related services to a third-party, using  the Service in a manner, numbering, labeling or routing format not duly prescribed and pre-agreed by SBI. The Subscriber shall likewise be liable to SBI for any and all compensation fee on account of any of the above Unauthorized Activities and unauthorized commercial use of the Service.  The compensation fee is payable, without any limitation from the time the Unauthorized Activity and unauthorized commercial use occurred until the actual cessation thereof.  A penalty equivalent to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the computed revenue losses shall likewise be charged against the subscriber if proven accountable for such Unauthorized Activity and unauthorized commercial use.  For this purpose, SBI shall have the right to full access to the relevant books and all other records of the Subscriber in order to ascertain the volume of traffic and total amount of compensation fee payable.  In the absence of said record, SBI shall have the sole discretion in the determination of the said compensation fee.  In addition to the Unauthorized Activities and unauthorized commercial use referred to above, the Subscriber undertakes not to use the Service for any activity that is contrary to morals and public policy or which violates any ordinance, law, decree, order, regulation or treaty, among others (the “Illegal Activities”).

The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold SBI free and harmless from any liability, suit, or damage arising from or connected with the Subscriber’s Unauthorized Activities, unauthorized commercial use and/or Illegal Activities.  The Subscriber further authorizes SBI to supply any and all information requested by any law enforcement or government agency/ies, or other private entities, the latter within the limits provided for by law, relative to the Subscriber’s subscription to the Service.

If Subscriber withholds the disputed amount thereafter or within the time required fails to provide supporting information in writing that sets out a legitimate basis under this Agreement for disputing any charges, Subscriber’s account shall be deemed to be past due and unpaid. In such event, SBI shall be entitled to pursue any and all legal remedies provided in this Agreement, including suspension or disconnection of Service.
