Service Features
o Java Code Signing Certificates: For Java applications for desktop, digitally sign .jar files and Netscape Object Signing.
Recognized by Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
o Extended Validation Code Signing: The EV Code Signing process can provide reputation service within browsers, operating
systems, and security software an additional source of confidence in applications signed with EV Code Signing certificates.
Administrators use the MPKI Control Center to manage and control SSL Certificate enrollment, approval, issuance, rejection,
revocation, and renewal.
o Enterprise Certificate Manager (ECM): Allows centralized administration and control of SSL, OFX SSL, and Code Signing
Certificates across the various divisions or sub-organizations of Customer’s entire organization through the account.
o Full PKI management.
o Reporting to track Certificate details.
o Audit log of Certificates issued and Administrator actions.
o Email alerts.
o Download CRL.
o Interactive online help.
Subscriber Tools feature, permitting role-based task delegation for distributed administration. Certificate Subscribers interact
with the system via customizable screens. All data is automatically processed in the Symantec-hosted, carrier-class data
center, relay hub between the Administrator, users, and the CA.
For an additional fee, depending on the applicable support level package, Customer can add multiple organizations and
domain names to the Service account.
For an additional fee, Customer can add Administrator kits. Each account includes one (1) Administrator kit. The kit includes
a client Certificate for authentication to the MPKI Control Center and an optional, security hardware token for storage.
For an additional fee, the SSL Certificate Licensing Option permits the use of a Certificate on one physical device with
additional Certificate licenses for each physical server that each device manages, or where replicated Certificates may
otherwise reside. Even though Symantec recommends following best practices by not copying or sharing Certificates (and
private keys) from server to server, due to redundancy, load balancing and other performance and availability considerations,
some Customers have unique Web infrastructure configurations that require sharing Certificates between multiple servers
or other devices.
Customer Responsibilities
Symantec can only perform the Service if Customer provides required information or performs required actions. If Customer does
not provide/perform per the following responsibilities, Symantec’s performance of the Service may be delayed, impaired or
prevented, as noted below.
Setup Enablement: Customer must provide information required for Symantec to begin providing the Service.
Adequate Customer Personnel: Customer must provide adequate personnel to assist Symantec in delivery of the Service,
upon reasonable request by Symantec.
Customer accepts the appointment as a non-Symantec RA.
Customer must meet all requirements and perform all obligations imposed upon an RA within the STN, which shall include,
but are not limited to: (i) the Symantec Trust Network CPS, as periodically amended; (ii) the Handbook; and (iii) the
obligations set forth in this Section V. In addition to the termination, revocation, and security provisions set forth in this
Service Description, the Symantec Trust Network CPS and the Handbook shall survive termination of the term of the Service
until the end of the Operational Period of all Certificates issued hereunder.
Customer must appoint one or more authorized employees or agents as RAA(s). All such employees or agents must meet
the minimum personnel qualifications set forth in the Handbook. Such RAA(s) will be entitled to appoint additional RAAs on
Customer’s behalf. Customer must cause your RAAs receiving Certificates hereunder to abide by the terms of the applicable
Subscriber Agreement, which can be found in the Handbook.
Administrator Functions. Customer must comply with the requirements set forth in the Symantec Trust Network CPS and
the Handbook for validating the information in Certificate Applications, approving or rejecting such Certificate Applications,
using hardware and software designated by Symantec, and revoking Certificates. Customer must perform such tasks in a
competent, professional, and workmanlike manner. Customer can approve a Certificate Application only if (i) the
application was made on behalf of a device or internet domain (for purposes of approving SSL Certificates) or a software
publisher (for purposes of approving Code Signing certificates) within Customer’s organization; and (ii) Customer’s RA has
authorized the use of Customer’s organizational name in the Certificate. If Customer’s RAA ceases to have the authority to
act as RAA on Customer’s behalf, then Customer must promptly revoke such authority. If Customer’s organizational name
and/or domain registration changes, then Customer’s RAA must promptly request revocation of all Certificates issued
therein. Customer must not disclose any challenge phrase, PIN, software, or hardware mechanism protecting the RAA
Certificate private key to a third party.
Certificates under the Licensed Certificate Option may be used on one (1) physical device with additional Certificate licenses
for each physical server that each device manages, or where replicated Certificates may otherwise reside. Each Certificate
under the Licensed Certificate Option has the value of one Unit per device per year. Each Certificate under the Subject
Alternative Name Option may be used to secure multiple domains. There is a limit of one hundred (100) domains or
“SubAltNames” per Certificate. Each Certificate under the Subject Alternative Name Option has the value of one Unit, per
domain, per year.
The RAA must review the information in it before using it and promptly notify Symantec of any errors. Upon receipt of such
notice, Symantec will revoke the RAA Certificate and issue a corrected RAA Certificate, subject to the requirements set forth
herein.
Customer must keep the “Technical Contact” information in the account up to date at all times to ensure that Customer
receives provisioning emails and other time sensitive information from Symantec that affect the account.
Customer must maintain accurate email addresses for each administrative user of the Service.
Customer’s Indemnification Related to Appointment as RA. To the extent any third party claim, suit, proceeding or
judgment arises from your failure to strictly comply with the obligations set forth above, Customer must defend, hold
harmless, and indemnify Symantec and its directors, officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns from such claim.
SERVICE-SPECIFIC TERMS
Subscription Service
Customer’s minimum yearly commit (“Minimum Commitment”) is as outlined in Symantec’s quote, accepted by Customer.
Symantec shall populate Customer’s MPKI Control Center initially with 9,999 Certificate Units. During the Service term,
Symantec will top up the Certificate Units on request.
Sixty days (60) days prior to the end of any given year during the Service term, the parties will meet and review Customer’s
usage.
In addition to the Minimum Commitment, Customer will also be responsible to pay any additional fees should Customer’s
usage grow beyond the pricing tier level corresponding to the Minimum Commitment in any given year during the Service
term. Such increase in fees, where applicable, shall be guided by the total number of active and renewable Certificates issued
from Customer’s MPKI Control Center and calculated in accordance with the pricing range table (“Pricing Range Table”) as
outlined in Symantec’s quote, accepted by Customer. At the end of each year during the Service term, Symantec will review
Customer’s usage and the Certificates issued from Customer’s MPKI Control Center to determine whether any increase in
pricing applies. The unit equivalency table (“Unit Equivalency Table”), as outlined in Symantec’s quote, accepted by
Customer, will be used to convert the number of Certificates issued from Customer’s MPKI Control Center into the number
of Certificate Units for the purposes of fee calculation.
Within 30 days of termination or expiration of the Service, all Certificates issued during the Service term will be deactivated
and/or revoked.
Before the final year in the Service term is over, any use in excess of the Minimum Commitment will be charged on a pro-rata
basis as follows:
o The applicable tier level for usage including any overage shall be based on good faith estimate, guided by the total
number of active and renewable Certificates issued from Customer’s account during the Service term, and according to
the Pricing Range Table. The Unit Equivalency Table will be used to convert the number of Certificates into the number
of Certificate Units for the purposes of calculation.
o The overage fee shall be calculated by subtracting the fee stated in the final year’s Minimum Commitment from the
higher fee associated with the higher tier level according to the Pricing Range Table, then dividing the balance by two
(mid-year convention). Customer shall issue a purchase order, and Symantec shall submit an invoice for such overage
fee.
Symantec Responsibilities
Symantec appoints Customer as a non-Symantec RA within the Symantec Trust Network pursuant to the Symantec Trust
Network CPS.
Symantec will notify the individual that Customer appoints as the RAA of any amendments to the Service by posting the
information to the MPKI Control Center.
Symantec grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable license during the term of the
Service to access and use the Service, any console, software or other tools which Symantec makes available through the
Service. Customer may use the MPKI Control Center and such software and tools solely in accordance with the applicable
instructions or documentation and any end-user license terms and/or restrictions provided therewith.
Symantec will provide the Service until the term of the Service purchased hereunder expires.
Symantec will provide the infrastructure required to provide the Service.
Symantec will issue, manage, revoke, and/or renew Certificates in accordance with the instructions that Customer provides
through the RAA(s). Upon the approval of a Certificate Application, Symantec will (i) be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of
the information in each such approved Certificate Application; and (ii) issue a Certificate to the Certificate Applicant
submitting such Certificate Application. Notwithstanding the terms of the “Basic” Service Level Agreement, no service level
commitments will apply with respect to the Service provided herein unless a Gold or Platinum Service Fee obligation is then
in effect.
Symantec will notify Customer whether the RAA Certificate Application is approved or rejected. If the RAA Certificate
Application is approved, Symantec will issue an RAA Certificate for use in accordance with this Service Description.
Symantec warrants that (i) there are no errors introduced by Symantec in the Certificate information as a result of Symantec's
failure to use reasonable care in creating the Certificate; (ii) its issuance of Certificates shall comply in all material respects
with its CPS; and (iii) its revocation services and use of a repository conform to its CPS in all material aspects.
Service Conditions
You may not disclose the results of any benchmark tests or other tests connected with the Service to any third party without
Symantec’s prior written consent.
The use of any Service Component in the form of software shall be governed by the EULA accompanying the software. If no
license agreement accompanies the Service Component, it shall be governed by the terms and conditions located at
(http://www.symantec.com/content/en/us/enterprise/eulas/b-hosted-service-component-eula-eng.pdf).Any additional
rights and obligations with respect to the use of such Service Component shall be as set forth in this Service Description.
Except as otherwise specified in the Service Description, the Service (including any Hosted Service Software Component
provided therewith) may use open source and other third party materials that are subject to a separate license. Please see
the applicable Third Party Notice, if applicable, at http://www.symantec.com/about/profile/policies/eulas/.
Restrictions for Code Signing Certificates. Customer must not use a Code Signing Certificate: (i) for or on behalf of any
organization other than Customer’s organization; (ii) to perform private or public key operations in connection with any
domain and/or organization name other than the one Customer submitted on the Certificate Application; (iii) to distribute
malicious or harmful content of any kind including, but not limited to, content that would otherwise have the effect of
inconveniencing the recipient of such content; or (iv) in a manner that transfers control or permits access for the private key
corresponding to the public key of the Certificate to anyone other than an employee that Customer has authorized (any such
transfer to be in a secure manner so as to protect the private key).
Restrictions for MPKI for Intranet SSL and MPKI for Intranet SSL Premium Certificates. Intranet SSL Certificates must be used
only with intranet domains and may not be assigned to devices that are publicly accessible from the Internet. Symantec
reserves the right to monitor publicly-facing Internet servers and/or devices to ensure that Intranet SSL Certificates comply
with this clause. If Symantec discovers any use of Intranet SSL Certificate(s) not in compliance with this clause, then Symantec
will immediately notify Customer’s RAA of non-compliance. The RAA must, within twenty (24) hours, either (i) immediately
move the Intranet SSL Certificate to an intranet domain; or (ii) remove and revoke the Intranet SSL Certificate from Customer’s
servers. If the RAA does not revoke or remove the non-compliant Certificate, then Symantec may revoke the RAA Certificate.
Restrictions for SSL Certificates. Customer must not use a SSL Certificate (i) for or on behalf of any organization other than
Customer’s own; (ii) to perform private or public key operations in connection with any domain name and/or organization
name other than the one(s) submitted by Customer’s RAA during enrollment; or (iii) on more than one physical server or
device at a time, unless Customer has selected the Licensed Certificate Option. Customer acknowledges that the Licensed
Certificate Option can result in increased security risks to Customer’s network and Symantec expressly disclaims any liability
for breaches of security that result from the distribution of a single key across multiple devices. SYMANTEC CONSIDERS THE
UNLICENSED USE OF A SSL CERTIFICATE ON A DEVICE THAT RESIDES ABOVE A SERVER OR SERVER FARM SOFTWARE PIRACY
AND WILL PURSUE VIOLATORS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW.
Customer agrees that (i) all information material to the issuance of a Certificate and validated by Customer or on its behalf is
true and correct in all material respects; (ii) approval of Certificate Applications will not result in Erroneous Issuance; (iii)
Customer has substantially complied with the Symantec Trust Network CPS, the Handbook, and Customer’s obligations set
forth herein; (iv) no Certificate information provided to Symantec infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party;
(v) the information Customer provides in the Certificate Application(s) (including email address(es)) has not been and will not
be used for any unlawful purpose; (vi) the RAA has been (since the time of the RAA Certificate’s creation) and will remain the
only person possessing the RAA Certificate private key, or any challenge phrase, PIN, software, or hardware mechanism
protecting the private key, and no unauthorized person has had or will have access to such materials or information; (vii)
Customer will use the RAA Certificate exclusively for authorized and legal purposes consistent with this Agreement; and (viii)
Customer will not monitor, interfere with or reverse engineer the technical implementation of the Symantec systems or
software or the STN, except with the prior written approval from Symantec, and will not otherwise intentionally compromise

shall defend and hold harmless Customer and its directors, officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns from such
Infringement Claim, and indemnify Customer for damages finally awarded against Customer to the extent such damages are

In the event of any Infringement Claim, Symantec shall have the right, at its sole option, to obtain the right to continue use of the
affected Service or to replace or modify the affected Service so that they may be provided by Symantec and used by Customer
without infringement of third party United States patent, copyright or trade secret rights. If neither of the foregoing options is

The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any infringement resulting from: (i) any open source or third party components or
products; (ii) any use of the Service not in accordance with the Agreement; (iii) any use of the Services in combination with other
services, software or hardware not supplied by Symantec if the alleged infringement would not have occurred but for such
combination; (iv) any modification of the Services not performed by Symantec if the alleged infringement would not have occurred
but for such modification; or (v) use of an allegedly infringing version of the Service if the alleged infringement could be avoided by
the use of a more current version of the Service made available to Customer.

CONSTITUTE THE ENTIRE OBLIGATION OF SYMANTEC AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER
THEREOF.
(b) Customer shall promptly notify Symantec of any claim for indemnity by providing written notice pursuant to Section 9 of this
Agreement. When notifying an Infringement Claim, any such notice shall: (i) identify the United States patent, copyright or trade
secret asserted by a third party and the Service potentially impacted by the third party claim; and (ii) identify, initially and on an
ongoing basis, any other potential indemnitor to whom Customer have provided notice of the third party claim and the Service
supplied to Customer by such other potential indemnitor.
After receipt of such notice, Symantec shall have a reasonable time to investigate whether the third party claim might fall within the
scope of the indemnification prior to assuming the defense of such claim. With respect to any claim for which such notification is
provided or otherwise within the scope of the indemnity, Symantec shall have the right to control and bear full responsibility for the
defense of such claim (including any settlements); provided however, that: (i) Symantec shall keep Customer informed of, and
consult with Customer in connection with the progress of such litigation or settlement; (ii) Symantec shall not have any right,
without Customer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to settle any such claim if such settlement
arises from or is part of any criminal action, suit or proceeding or contains a stipulation to or admission or acknowledgment of, any
liability or wrongdoing (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) on Customer’s part, or requires any specific performance or non-
pecuniary remedy by Customer; and (iii) You shall have the right to participate in the defense of a claim with counsel of Customer’s
choice at Customer’s own expense.
