If we reasonably believe any of Your Content or Applications violates the law, infringes or misappropriates the rights of any third party or otherwise violates a material term of the Agreement (including the documentation, the Service Terms, or the Authorized Use Policy) (“Prohibited Content”), we will notify you of the Prohibited Content and may request that such content be removed from the Services or access to it be disabled. If you do not remove or disable access to the Prohibited Content within 2 business days of our notice, we may remove or disable access to the Prohibited Content or suspend the Services to the extent we are not able to remove or disable access to the Prohibited Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may remove or disable access to any Prohibited Content without prior notice pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act or as required to comply with any judicial, regulatory or other governmental order. In the event that we remove content without prior notice, we will provide prompt notice to you unless prohibited by law.
2.1. You must own or be licensed to use any domain name that you use in conjunction with Amazon CloudFront.

Your use of the IBM Software is subject to the terms and conditions defined in the IBM License Information (“IBM LI”) for each IBM Software program and any applicable terms for Separately Licensed Code contained therein. You can access the applicable IBM LI here using the IBM Program Number found in the AMI Catalog. Any restrictions in the IBM LI regarding Processor Value Units (“PVUs”) apply to your use of the IBM Software as part of the Services. IBM’s current conversion table for applying PVUs to the Services can be found here. The IBM LI may refer to products or features that are not available as part of the Services.

4.4. Reserved Instance Pricing. You may designate EC2 instances as subject to the reserved pricing and payment terms (“Reserved Instance Pricing”) set forth on the EC2 detail page on the AWS Website (each designated instance, a “Reserved Instance”). You may designate instances as Reserved Instances solely by calling to the Purchasing API (the “API Call”). In the API Call you must designate an availability zone, instance type and quantity for the applicable Reserved Instances. The Reserved Instances may only be used in the designated availability zone. We may change Reserved Instance Pricing at any time but price changes will not apply to previously designated Reserved Instances, except as described in this Section 4.4. If Microsoft increases the license fees it charges for Windows, we may make a corresponding increase to the per-hour usage rate for Reserved Instances with Windows. Any increase in the per-hour usage rate for Reserved Instances with Windows will be made between December 1 and January 31, and we will provide 30 days’ notice. If this happens, you may: (a) continue to use your Reserved Instances with Windows with the new per-hour usage price; (b) convert your Reserved Instances with Windows to comparable Reserved Instances with Linux; or (c) terminate your Reserved Instances with Windows and receive a pro rata refund of the up-front fee you paid for the terminated Reserved Instances with Windows. We may terminate the Reserved Instance Pricing program at any time. Reserved Instances are nontransferable and all amounts paid in connection with the Reserved Instances are nonrefundable, except that if we terminate the Agreement other than for cause, terminate an individual Reserved Instance type, or terminate the Reserved Instance Pricing program, we will refund you a pro rata portion of any up-front fee paid in connection with any previously designated Reserved Instances. In addition to being subject to Reserved Instance Pricing, Reserved Instances are subject to all data transfer and other fees applicable under the Agreement.
4.5. Spot Instance Pricing. You may request that certain Amazon EC2 instances run pursuant to the spot instance pricing and payment terms (“Spot Instance Pricing”) set forth on the Amazon EC2 product detail page on the AWS Website (each requested instance, a “Spot Instance”). You must request Spot Instances through the AWS Management Console or by using API tools (“Spot Instance Request”). As part of your Spot Instance Request, you must specify the maximum hourly price you are willing to pay to run the requested Spot Instances (“Your Maximum Price”). Unless you specify a permissible alternative termination date, your Spot Instance Request will remain active until we fulfill it or you cancel it. We set the price for Spot Instances (the “Spot Price”), which may vary over time based on a number of factors, including the amount of available compute capacity we have available and the price you and other customers are willing to pay for Spot Instances (e.g., supply and demand). While a requested Spot Instance remains running, you will be charged the current Spot Price in effect at the beginning of each instance hour. You will not be charged more than Your Maximum Price. We may terminate Spot Instances at any time and without any notice to you if we determine the current Spot Price equals or exceeds Your Maximum Price. If we terminate your Spot Instance, you will only be charged for each full hour the Spot Instance ran. Unless you designate your Spot Instance Request as a persistent request, terminated Spot Instances will not automatically restart. You should save your work frequently and test your application to ensure it is fault tolerant and will correctly handle interruptions. We have no liability whatsoever for any damages, liabilities, losses (including any corruption, deletion, or destruction or loss of data, applications or profits), or any other consequences resulting from our termination of any Spot Instance. Spot Instances may not be used with certain Services, features and third-party software we specify, including Auto Scaling, Amazon VPC, Amazon Elastic MapReduce, Amazon DevPay, IBM software packages, or Microsoft SQL Server. You may not, directly, indirectly, alone or in cooperation with any third party, attempt to control, influence or manipulate the price for Spot Instances. Without limiting the foregoing, you may not submit requests for Spot Instances through any third party (e.g., “proxy bidding”) or share information with any third party regarding the maximum prices specified in your Spot Instance Requests. We may modify or terminate the Spot Instance Pricing program at any time. In addition to the Spot Instance Pricing, Spot Instances are subject to all data transfer and other usage fees applicable under the Agreement.

Accordingly, if a Paying Account fails to pay for fees accrued by a Linked Account while the accounts are linked, the Linked Account remains liable for such fees.
19.1. We will provide “Premium Support” in accordance with the terms of AWS Premium Support Guidelines available at http://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/guidelines (the “Guidelines”). Premium Support is available only for (a) the “Covered Services” and subscription levels set forth in the Guidelines, and (b) customers and their own Applications using the Covered Services. If you are experiencing problems with one or more Covered Services in connection with your use of an Application that was provided to you by a third party (someone other than yourself or AWS) then Premium Support is not available.
19.2. In providing Premium Support, AWS will use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) respond within the “Response Times” set forth in the Guidelines for all properly submitted cases from authorized individuals, and (b) work towards the identification and resolution of the problems submitted. When submitting a case, you may designate the severity level of a problem; provided that, we reserve the right to reclassify the severity level in our reasonable opinion. All Response Times are measured from the point when a case has been properly submitted by an authorized individual to us. Cases may be submitted as specified in the Guidelines. We do not represent, warrant or guarantee that (i) we will always be able to resolve a case fully, (ii) you will no longer experience a problem, or (iii) we will provide a bug fix, patch or other workaround in connection with the identified problem.
19.3. Premium Support fees will be the greater of (a) the specified minimum monthly fee, or (b) a percentage of your monthly usage charges for all the Covered Services during the billing period. Regardless of when you sign up or terminate Premium Support, you are obligated to pay for a minimum of thirty (30) days of support each time you register to receive the service. We reserve the right to refuse to provide Premium Support to any customer that frequently registers for and terminates the service.
